APodcasts (播客)The B S. ReportDesigned for the sports fan with a sense of humor, the B.S. Report is hosted by the sportswriter Bill Simmons. Simmons show is in very loose and free form and it‟s not uncommon for him to go almost a whole show without even mentioning sports.Wait, Wait…… Do n’t Tell MeOne of the most popular Programs on National Public Radio, Wait. Wait... Don‟t Tell Me is now available as a podcast. The show is a news program in the form of a game show.

These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代数) and beyond.The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They also lookinto exponents(指数), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be used practically.Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and completely understandable—field of study.By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America,” is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary.With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College. His courses include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future primary school teachers.If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.4. What does the course Basic Math mainly cover?A. Algebra.B. College Mathematics.C. Arithmetic.D. Mathematics Education.5. What benefits can students expect from Basic Math?A. Stronger imaginative ability.B. Additional presentation skills.C. More mathematical confidence.D. Greater chances of becoming teachers.6. What can we learn about Professor H. Siegel?A. He is a guest lecturer at Kentucky Educational Television.B. He is to deliver 30 lectures in Basic Math.C. He works in Georgia State University.D. He specializes in training teachers.7. Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?A. A news report.B. A book reviewC. A lesson plan.D. An advertisementCPeanuts to ThisProudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real talk I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quite! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Tenmonths later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster‟s office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!8. What did the author‟s classmates think about his report?A. Controversial.B. Ridiculous.C. Boring.D. Puzzling.9. Why was the author confused about the task?A. He was unfamiliar with American history.B. He followed the advice and flipped a coin.C. He forgot his teacher‟s instruction.D. He was new at the school.10.The underlined word “burning” in Para. 3 probably means ________.A. annoyedB. ashamedC. readyD. eager11.In the end, the author turned things around ________.A. by redoing his taskB. through his own effortsC. with the help of his grandfatherD. under the guidance of his headmasterDHoney(蜂蜜)from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees‟ nest(巢)and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees‟ nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.12. Why is it difficult to find a wild bees‟ nest?A. It‟s small in size.B. It‟s hidden in trees.C. It‟s covered with wax.D. It‟s hard to recognize.13. What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A bee.B. A bird.C. A honey seeker.D. A beekeeper.14. The honey guide is special in the way ________.A. it gets its foodB. it goes to churchC. it sings in the forestD. it reaches into bees‟ nests15. What can be the best title for the text?A. Wild BeesB. Wax and HoneyC. Beekeeping in AfricaD. Honey-Lover‟s Helper第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2018-2019学年广东省深圳市高中联考高二(上)期末英语试卷
2018-2019学年广东省深圳市高中联考高二（上）期末英语试卷第一部分阅读理解（共两节）第一节（满分30分）1．（6分）If you are heading for Paris this year，be sure to include at least one of these shopping malls in your schedule．Au PrintempsTel：01133014282Located near the Paris Opera，this huge store is well﹣known for household goods as well as its fashion．The tore also offers many services to overseas visitors，including shipping，translation and a personal shopping service．Au Printemps，whose name means springtime，hosts several free fashion shows each week．The store's beauty department has one of the world's largest selections of perfumes．Galeries LafayatteTel：01133014283The Galeries Lafayette was built in1906．It is as much fun to look at as it is to shop in this10﹣storey shopping palace．In fact，the flagship store is the second most visited attraction in Paris．After the Louvre Museum．This shopping palace specializes in women's clothing．Make sure to take in the view from the tea shop on the top floor；it's well worth the visit．Le Bon MarcheTel：01133014439This stylish Left Bank department store was Paris'first such store．Designed by Gustave Eiffel，Le Bon Marche is particularly known for its food hall，its wedding shops and its selection of modern clothes．La Forum des HallesTel：01133014476This modern，underground shopping center was built in1979．La Forum des Halles，the three﹣storey﹣tall shopping center

Printemps is famous for its food hall．B．La Forum des Halles is next to the metro station．C．the clothes in Le Bin Marche are usually very cheap．D．the tea shop that is worth visiting is on the ninth floor of Galeries Lafayette．2．（8分）When school started on that warm August day，I threw myself into everything I did，including playing volleyball．I decided to become beautiful，or at the very least，skinny．I stopped eating completely．Soon I began losing weight，which thrilled me，and I even grew to love the tiredness and lightheadedness that came with my poor diet，for those feelings meant that I was winning．As the season progressed，things had become tense between my head volleyball coach，Coach Smith，and me．She felt that something was wrong with my health．She talked with me about my eating and was angry that I wouldn't listen to her when she tried to make me eat．She tried to persuade me in a determined way and so we fought constantly．Then my hunger started to affect my performance．I was so tired that practice and games were becoming a struggle．One afternoon，with hurt in her eyes，Coach Smith asked me what I had eaten and I told her nothing yet，but I was going to．She looked at me，disappointment in her eyes，knowing she couldn't make me stop，and walked away．A couple of weeks later I attended a formal dinner for our volleyball team．I stood there as my coach managed to say something nice about me．I realized then that I had ruined my senior year by being disrespectful，and I had probably ruined hers as well．So that evening I wrote her a letter apologizing and thanking her．Then one Saturday，as I was reading in the library，I felt someone gently take my arm and say softly，"Lynn Jones，how are you doing？"I looked up and saw the familiar face．"Thanks for the letter，"she said．"It meant a lot．"When I think of a coach，I think of someone above me，someone who gives instruction ﹣not a friend．But Coach Smith is different，and，like any other good friend，she dealt with my problem in a determined way even when I hated her for it at that time．I didn't deserve her kindness，but she gave it anyway．I will forever be grateful for her help，and now for her friendship．（1）How did the author feel when the author ate a poor diet and had a sense of tiredness？A．AshamedB．ProudC．FunnyD．Nervous（2）The author fought with Coach Smith because．A．she refused to go on

food．B．She decided to improve her performance．C．She was grateful for Smith's care for her health．D．She wanted to build a close relationship with Smith．（4）What is the best title for the passage？A．Unexpected FriendshipB．A Fight with My CoachC．A Strict Volleyball CoachD．My Way of Losing Weight3．（8分）For centuries，mankind and dogs have suffered from a communication failure．We can tell dogs what we want them to do and sometimes they comply，but we've always struggled when it comes to understanding the true meaning of their barks and whimpers．There is exciting news now﹣a dog translator has been invented to help you communicate with your furry friend．Researchers at North Carolina State University have fashioned some kind of miracle dog translator body harness（束腰带）．What's special about it is that it doesn't just rely on the dog's vocalizations to interpret what Fido is banging on about．Oh no﹣this miracle harness reads and interprets the ordinary dogs'body language as well，giving us a full two﹣way dog communication experience．Researcher David Roberts says："Dogs communicate primarily through body language，and one of our challenges was to develop sensors that tell us about their behavior by observing their posture remotely．"Sensors on the harness monitor the dog's heart rate and body temperature and software builds up a vocabulary，letting the human know what the dog is feeling．What would dogs say if they could talk to us？The human can even communicate back through the harness thanks to vibration motors，supposedly by tapping into the dog's senses so that it can understand what you're trying to say to it．The dog harness is designed for dogs involved in search and rescue and other front﹣line work，but it's got us dreaming of a beautiful future，one where humans and dogs can co﹣exist as equals，with the dog able to fully express itself at all times．（1）Why can't people communicate with dogs？A．They have difficulty understanding dogs'barks and whimpers．B．They have no idea about dogs'behavior in relation to their posture．C．They don't know how to tell dogs what they want them to do．D．They don't have a machine to translate the dogs'language．（2）What does the underlined word most probably mean in paragraph two？A．Bought．B．Researched．C．Influenced．D．Made．（3）For what purpose is the dog harness designed？A．It is designed for dogs to understand what people are trying to say to them．B．It is designed for dogs to communicate with people through body language．C．It is designed to monitor the dog's heart rate and body temperature．D．It is designed for dogs doing search and rescue and other front﹣line work．（4）What is the author's attitude towards the possible human﹣dog communication？A．Shocked．B．Excited．C．Embarrassed．D．Annoyed．4．（8分）We are lucky to live in a world that is full of incredible technology．Our living rooms are packed with computers，LCD TVs，video game systems，and Blue﹣ray players that help us enjoy the latest entertainment．Although these items bring us joy and convenience，they also create a lot of junk．Each device needs its own plug and adaptor to keep its batteries recharged，and over time these wires get tangled（缠绕在一起的）．Thankfully，something has come along to help rid our homes of this mess while still supplying these devices with the power they need．It's called wireless charging and this trend is just starting．Wireless charging has a lot of potential for smartphones and other electronic devices．Electronic devices can absorb the electricity once they're placed on a special charging mat．There are several advantages that wireless charging offers over traditional methods．For starters，cords（电线）have a tendency to wear out with use．Wireless charging users never have to worry about buying replacement cords．Wireless charging is also far more convenient for medical implants，as patients won't need to recharge their devices through the skin using cords．In turn，this cuts down on the risks of infection．Wireless charging can also bring safety benefits，as wired charging devices that come in contact with water can increase thechances of getting an electric shock．Wireless charging gets rid of that danger completely．Still，there are a few drawbacks to wireless charging．The first is speed．It takes a bit longer to charge devices wirelessly than it does if the device is plugged in．The process also requires more heat，so devices tend to get a bit hotter，which could create other safety issues．Also，since devices must be left on a special pad while charging，it is harder to operate them while they are powering up．This limitation may be gotten rid of in the future，as researchers are developing transmitters（发射器）that can charge several different devices in a room without the need to connect to a charging pad．Although wireless﹣charging technology may be far from perfect，it seems like a step in the right direction as we

When we seem to have finally obtained things we’ve worked hard for, most of us tend to think that we can relax and enjoy life. 1 , life has some rude awakenings for us.This was the 2 for Stevie. He worked hard and years later, he was able to buy a really nice home on a cliff 3 the ocean. It seemed that all his work 4 and that he had finally realized his dream.Well, as life would have it, along came the events over which he had no 5 . Above all, the cliff started to erode（风化）badly from the 6 winds and rains over the years. What was once a one-hundred-foot backyard was rapidly 7 week by week, and to make matters even 8 , he became badly ill to the point 9 he had to take lots of time off from work.Then, the most tragic things happened. The backyard totally disappeared and what was 10 was the back of the house sitting dangerously on the edge of the cliff. What was even more destructive was that he had no house insurance 11 the family could not get any from insurance companies who knew of the 12 . No insurance, and so sick that he couldn’t work—now what? A person who thought he had finally reached the 13 and now only to find almost everything had disappeared through no 14 of his own.The good news was that he wasn’t done—friends, neighbors and even those who didn’t know him 15 responded to fund-raisers to help them start over.Life has a way of 16 and kicking us from behind and even kicking again when we are really down. But life also gives us a way 17 if we don’t give up. There is kindness and comfort 18 —an opportunity to start again if we have a 19 to move forward.

The cellulose(纤维素)in carrots and other root vegetables, unlike other fibrous materials like wood or cotton, is easy to separate out from the rest of the biowaste.The scientists call the material Curran, after the Gaelic word for carrot. And they set out to show that it could be used to replace glass or carbon fibers. They say it’s nearly twice as strong and slightly lighter than carbon. They would just go to buy in their local grocery store. But they soon realized that the carrot actually worked well and that they could turn to agricultural waste to source their material. They found that the smartest, most ecologically responsible use for the nanofibers was for protective sporting goods. And in particular, motorcycle helmets, which have to be both strong and light. That’s right: Motorcycle helmets of the future might be made from carrots, not carbon.The question here, first of all, was to see what could be a possible market for such a new fiber, from an ecological point but also from the eco nomic and technical angles too, “David Hepworth says. That’s where the helmet comes in. They found that protective sporting goods, which need stiff, strong, light fibers and low economic overhead, were some of the best use cases for Curran. David Hepworth and his team are also looking at the possibility of using it in surfboards and insulation(隔离板)for mobile homes.The challenge now is taking the material from the lab to mass production. And, making sure that it’s still ecologically smart on a grander scale. It doesn’t make sense to develop a material from biowaste if there’s no use for it. Or if turning it into a useable product takes more energy than the non-renewable choice.21. Why was the carrot chosen by the Scottish scientists at first?A. It worked best.B. It could be convenient to get.C. It is easy to be broken into pieces.D. It did little harm to the environment.22. What is special about Curran compared with other fibers?A. Its shape.B. Its length.C. Its quality.D. Its weight.23. Which is a challenge for using the new material mentioned at present?A. How to use it widely.B. How to make it cheaper.C. How to study it out of the lab.D. How to get it in large amounts.24. Which can best serve as the title for the text?A. Ways to Reuse Biological WastesB. Coming Helmets Made of CarrotsC. The Solutions to Dangerous RidingD. The Challenge in Producing HelmetsBIntelligent people are more likely to trust others, while those who score lower on measures of intelligence are less likely to do so. Oxford University researchers based their finding on an analysis of the ‘General Social Survey’.The authors say one explanation could be that more intelligent individuals are better at judging charactersand may spend more time building relationships with people they can trust. Another reason could be that smarter people are better at weighing up situations and assessing whether or not the other person will hold up his or her end of a bargain.“Intelligence is shown to be linked with trusting others.”said the study’s lead author, Noah Carl of Oxford University, “This finding supports what other researchers have argued, namely that being a good judge of character is a distinct part of human intelligence.”In addition, the study shows that individuals who are more trusting are also happier with their lives and had higher levels of physical health. The Oxford researchers found, however, that the links between trust and health, and between trust and happiness, are not explained by intelligence. The findings confirmed that trust is a valuable resource for an individual, and is not simply a measure of intelligence.The authors say the research is significant because the study of social trust could have far-reaching implications in public welfare, as social trust contributes to the success of important social institutions, such as welfare systems and financial markets.According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, trust is in increasingly short supply in current generation. This decline threatens world leaders’ability to handle some of today’s key challenges like global warming, and the political system. There are good reasons to think that governments should try to develop more trust in society.Distrust usually causes friction in personal relationships, careers and politics among others, says Stephen Covey. Although majority of people say that trust can never be restored once it’s broken, Stephen feels it can be brought back. “It’s not easy, it takes time, but you do it through your behavior, not just things you say.”25. It can be concluded from the analysis of the General Social Survey that ______.A. intelligent people tend to show more trust in othersB. judgment of characters determines the level of intelligenceC. intelligence accounts for the connection between trust and healthD. intelligent individuals spend less time on interpersonal relationship26. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Make the best of a situation.B. Stick to one’s promise as agreed.C. Figure out the true value of a bargain.D. Make an assessment of a deal.27. According to the research, higher level of social trust is ______.A. a decisive basis for stable political systemB. a basic step to deal with global warmingC. a contributing factor to successful public institutionsD. a complete solution to interpersonal conflicts28. When it comes to rebuilding trust, Stephen is most likely to agree that ______.A. actions always speak louder than wordsB. behavior is a mirror in which everyone shows his imageC. behavior is largely determined by mindD. action is the proper fruit of knowledge三、七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Visiting London can be an expensive trip. 29 The following steps can help you find cheap alternatives for transport for your London trip.◆Familiarize yourself with the city.

While they were there, his mother Garrett learned about LuLu, a restaurant that offers food to customers with food allergies(过敏). At LuLu, Isaac could eat a salad and a bowl of chicken soup with rice. “Isaac looked at me as if asking, ‘Is this OK?’ ” Garrett said. Once his mom gave the OK, Isaac enjoyed for the first time the experience of eating at a restaurant. “That look on his face was like, ‘This is the coolest thing I’ve ever done,’ ” Garrett added. Garrett and her family rarely eat out because of Isaac ’s food allergies. When they do, she cooks something for Isaac at home before they leave and brings it with her to the restaurant. “It’s not fun and it feels unfair,” she said. Their night at LuLu marked a celebration for Isaac. Garrett shared the moment o n the restaurant’s Facebook page. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving Isaac this wonderful experience,” she wrote in her post.此卷只装订不密封班级姓名准考证号考场号座位号Barnett, the restaurant’s manager, said, “When customers tell the staff that someone in their group has a food alle rgy, I assist with the order by passing it to the kitchen, ensuring it’s cooked in a separate station and delivering the finished food to the guests. We have been improving this process over the past ten years since our allergy program was started.”On Gar rett’s Facebook post, LuLu thanked Garrett for sharing her story. “Thank you for sharing your experience with us,” the restaurant wrote in a comment, “We are excited to see your son so happy!”Garrett is hoping her post’s popularity will convince other restaurants to be more considerate. “LuLu takes it seriously as we take it –nothing could make us happier than that,” she said.4．How does Isaac feel when he first ate at LuLu?A．Satisfied.B．Curious.C．Amused.D．Nervous.5．What does Garrett usually do when her family go out to eat?A．She leaves Isaac alone at home.B．She prepares some food for Isaac.C．She orders some special food for Isaac.D．She lets Isaac choose his favorite dishes.6．What will Barnett do when guests with allergies come to dinner?A．He will deliver the menu to them.B．He will personally assist with the order.C．He will introduce the allergy program.D．He will cook dinner in a separate station.7．What touched Garnett deeply?A．LuLu’s response to her post.B．Her son’s experience at LuLu.C．LuLu’s concern for guests with allergies.D．More restaurants’ following LuLu’s steps.Does your local high sch ool have a student newspaper? Only 1 in 8 of New York’s public high schools has student newspapers – and many of those are published just a few times a year. A few more are online, which can leave out poorer schools.Rebecca Dwarka, an 18-year-old senior w ho works for her student paper said, “Facebook is the new way of finding out what happened. Nobody wants to actually sit down and read a whole article about it. This makes a ‘whole article’ sound a little like a long sentence in lonely places.”I am not nostalgic(怀旧的) about high school student newspapers and never worked for mine. I put out what was then called a personal magazine with a group of friends because we wanted to write about peace, war and rock ’n’ roll without school officials warning us not to make jokes about the local officials.School newspapers are in decline(衰落) because students now find out what happened on social networking websites. This is a little discouraging because it proves that for millions of Americans, journalism is becoming a do-it-yourself thing. Every citizen can be a reporter.When something happens, we look for social media messages. Facebook posts and Tweets have become the means by which citizens and reporters can prove, deny, pass on stories and express opinions without the press’ challenging, researching or slowing the message.But truly good journalism is a craft, not just a blog post. It requires seeing something carefully and it uses an eye for details to help prove a larger view. And even journalism that conveys an opinion tries to be fair. If school newspapers begin to disappear, I hope there are other ways for students to learn that.8．What can we infer from Rebecca’s words?A．Students like reading detailed articles.B．School newspapers are becoming unpopular.C．Facebook is the quickest way of spreading news.D．Long sentences are becoming popular in lonely places.9．What does the author think of social media messages?A．They make journalism become a craft.B．They represent the power of small voices.C．They are usually discouraging for readers.D．They are coming without careful research.10．What should good journalism do according to the author?A．Ignore some details.B．Spread a message quickly.C．Convey an opinion in a fair way.D．Act as blog posts in modern times.11．Which might be the most suitable title for the passage?A．Social media or newspapers?B．Everyone can become a reporter at presentC．Social networking brings about new journalismD．High school newspapers – an endangered species.Chinese retail giant Alibaba has developed a new automated(自动化的) vehicle which is easy to mass-produce and could serve a number of functions. These could include delivery messenger or automated coffee selling machine, it said.The Cainiao G Plus can travel at up to nine miles per hour, reports The Verge news site. It was showed at a conference where Alibaba founder Jack Ma announced a 100bn yuan ($15.5bn) would be put into smart logistics(物流).This includes devices such as warehouse robots as well as delivery aids.AI expert and author Calum Chace described the G Plus as being like the “ugly big brother” of a delivery project developed by UK firm Starship Technologies. Starship has been working on this project for several years, so the Alibaba project looks to be behin d as well as ugly, he said. “But that won’t matter. Anything to do with artificial intelligence is put in the first place for China, which has set itself the target of overtaking the US as world leader in AI by 2030”.China benefits from having free access to large amounts of data, essential for training algorithms(算法), he added, probably a disadvantage in Europe since the introduction of GDPR law, designed to protect privacy.“Don’t bet against the Chinese pulling ahead in any AI-related competition, be it self-driving cars, facial recognition, or delivery projects,” Mr Chace said.The G Plus vehicle is fitted with solid state Lidar – the laser sensors which form an important part of the system autonomous vehicles use to be aware of their surroundings.Solid state Lidar is cheaper and easier to produce than the traditional system, which involves spinning multiple lasers in circles to help build up a 360-degree image of what surrounds the vehicle. There are various developers creating their own versions but essentially it uses fewer lasers and a tiny swinging mirror.Last month BMW said that its autonomous vehicles will be fitted with solid state Lidar when they will be launched in 2021.12．What do we know about the delivery project developed by UK’s Starship Technologies?A．It is behind and looks ugly.B．It is behind but looks nicer.C．It is modern but looks ugly.D．It looks nicer and more modern.13．What is AI expert Calum Chace’s attitude toward China’s AI?A．Worried.B．Confident.C．Negative.D．Unconcerned.14．What is the aim of GDPR legislation in Europe?A．To protect personal information.B．To train people to go online properly.C．To let people have free access to data.D．To encourage more people to go online.15．What plays an important part in the system which the vehicles use to know their surroundings?A．The laser sensors.B．The tiny swinging mirror.C．The traditional system.D．The things around the vehicles.二、七选五Basic first aid is a very valuable skill to have when going on a camping trip. 16．Cuts. With small cuts, you need to be careful to keep the area of the wound clean to avoid getting infected. 17．If the cut has not stopped bleeding, raise the wounded area above the heart and place pressure on the area to stop the bleeding. 18． It should be held in place with tape, but should not be too tight.Blisters. Blisters can turn a fun walk in the woods into a terrible experience. 19．Change your bandage and socks and keep the blistered area clean. Make sure that you pack different size bandages and first aid cream.Sprains. If you have got a heavy pack on your shoulders, it can be very easy to twist your ankles. Walking sticks can be a traveler’s friend. 20． A good ACE bandage should be packed in case of a sprained ankle. This can help fix the sprained area until you can get medical attention.After seeing the above dangers and treatments, it’s also helpful to pack a small basic first aid kit for your trip. Make sure that you include items that are unique to you and fit your environment (bleeding, bruise, snake bite, etc.).A． They can help you keep balance on rough areas.B． Wear comfortable shoes and socks during the trips.C． Treat the cut with first aid cream to prevent infection.D． They are an open wound and can get infected if not cared for.E. Apply some cream and cover the wound with a dry, clean bandage.F. Below is a brief list of less-severe injuries that you can prepare for.G. Some climates can be very hot during the day and very cool at night.三、完形填空Joy to the WorldLights, decorations and Christmas trees filled the stores.
