A 阅读理解ChatGPT now has an upgrade (升级) with its new AI model, GPT-4o.But why “o”? It stands for “omni”, which means it can do “all things” in “all ways”. It is stronger than any of the GPT models that came before it.GPT-4o can understand orders through voice, text or images . It can also give answers in all these types of media, said its maker OpenAI. When chatting with you, it can respond as fast as a person can. “Talking to a computer has never felt really natural for me; now it does,” said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in a blog post.The new model may become your “new best friend” as it can help you with many things. It can teach you new languages, summarize a meeting and translate things really fast. But most helpful of all, GPT-4o can be your personal teacher.In a video on the OpenAI website, GPT-4o helped a boy named Imran Khan with a math problem. Instead of giving him the answer, it asked, “Do you remember the formula (公式)?” This helped Khan think step by step. When Khan made mistakes, GPT-4o gave hints (提示) and let him try again, instead of just telling him the answer. These abilities are making lots of people think and talk about the power of GPT-4o. “Teachers give classes to many students at the same time. Now with AI, each person’s learning experience is tailored (定制) to their requirements. It fits what a student needs,” a viewer of the video wrote online. But others also worry it might take away some teachers’ jobs.Still, many people see hope. If used right, GPT-4o can give more support to people like the blind or those feeling lonely, Emma Darcy, who works at Denbigh High School in the UK, told Forbes.1.

The 29-year-old now serves as the director assistant to the village secretary of the Maotianping Village Committee. Her role focuses on improving the quality of life for her fellow villagers.Rural revitalization is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25), set as a national strategy to draw talent to rural areas.Enshi heavily depends on agriculture and most of its farmers grow potatoes. Li and her colleagues’ jobs include communicating with the villagers and making potatoes grow better. “We often hold meetings in the village square, where we share ideas on potato planting techniques , market trends and more,” Li said.To sell more potatoes to places outside their village, the young people there choose to do livestreaming. “Video-sharing platforms like Douyin have greatly broadened our reach, increasing the popularity and sales of our small potatoes,” Li said.Along with other methods, such as e-commerce (电商) platforms like Meituan, the money made from potato sales each year has risen from 1,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan, according to Li.Emphasis has been placed on the quality of the potatoes. Li’s team created positions like potato managers, similar to marketing and sales specialists. There’s even a role as a potato appraiser (鉴定人), picking the best-looking potatoes for sale.In the near future, Li hopes to continue helping villagers raise their potato production and increase their income. She and her team’s long-term plan is to promote urban-rural integration (城乡融合).“I think it’s now called ecological tourism , ecological culture and green industries,” she said.1.

But it will soon have a visitor – China’s Chang’e 6 probe (探测器).The Chang’e 6 probe will be the first in the world to take stone and soil samples from the moon’s far side. The probe was launched successfully from Hainan on May 3.Humans have done 10 missions to the moon to bring back moon samples, including China’s Chang’e 5 mission in 2020. However, all these missions so far have visited the side of the moon that faces Earth.Because the moon turns at the same speed as it circles Earth, we can never see the far side of the moon. This makes it hard to stay in contact with any spacecraft that goes there.To help the Chang’e 6 space probe “talk” to Earth, China sent a new relay satellite (中继卫星) called Queqiao 2 into space to travel around the moon, helping send messages back.The Chang’e 6 probe also has new smart tools to help it collect samples better. “Even if the probe loses contact with Earth, it can do important work by itself,” Wang Qiong, deputy chief designer of the Chang’e 6 mission.The Chang’e 6 mission to the moon will take 53 days. During this time, the probe will go into orbit (轨道) around the moon and land in a place called the South Pole-Aitken Basin. It is a huge crater (撞击坑) on the far side of the moon. There, it will collect up to 2 kilograms of stone and soil to bring back to Earth. Scientists will study these samples to learn more about the moon.1. How is Chang’e 6’s mission different from other missions before it?A. People can see where the probe works from Earth.B. The mission will start from the moon’s near side.C. The probe will bring back stone and soil samples.D. The probe will work on the far side of the moon.2. What is the role of Queqiao 2?A. Sending the Chang’e 6 probe into orbit.B. Moving between Earth and the moon.C. Acting as a bridge between Earth and Chang’e 6.D. Helping people on Earth talk on the phone better.3. Why is it challenging to communicate with a spacecraft on the far side of the moon?A. The far side is always dark and cold.B. The far side is out of sight from Earth, making communication difficult.C. The Chang’e 6 probe does not have the necessary communication tools.D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin blocks communication signals.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. The Chang’e 6 mission will last over two months.B. Astronauts will collect 2 kilograms of moon samples.C. We can never see the South Pole-Aitken Basin on Earth.D. The probe completely depends on people’s control.5. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The Chang’e 6 probe is designed to study the moon's orbit.B. The Chang’e 6 mission marks a significant advancement in lunar exploration.C. The Queqiao 2 satellite is essential for space communication.D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin is the only place on the moon worth exploring.D篇:阅读理解From April 20 to 21, 21st Century and Beijing Language and Culture University co-hosted the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy (Z世代公共外交交流会) in Beijing. Over 100 teachers and students from across China gathered to discuss how students can have better public diplomacy skills by taking part in MUN activities.Wei Huacan, a 15-year-old from Qian Xuesen Middle School in Beijing, dreams of becoming a prosecutor (检察官). Having taken part in MUN and relevant activities for many times, he finds MUN super helpful for his future dream.“MUN activities cover lots of topics, not just diplomacy but also law and more. For example, the international court (法庭) in MUN really supports my law studies goals,” said Wei.MUN doesn’t just help students get closer to their big dreams; it also helps them do better in school.Eye-opening experience“MUN activities help students think more logically and quickly, making them better at speaking and debating in public,” said Zhang Lingyun, a teacher from Soochow Foreign Language School in Jiangsu. Her school has a special MUN class for students, with an MUN club for hands-on experience.Chen Wuyue, a student at Hangzhou Foreign Languages School in Zhejiang, has been taking part in MUN since grade 7.“When I represented other countries, I stand in their shoes to think and speak. This helps me form my own ideas, instead of just learning from books,” she said. Chen feels that MUN has opened her eyes to what’s happening all over the world, helping her look further than what’s just in the textbooks.Bridging the gapAs a fantastic way for young people to learn skills, MUN is growing fast in China. Take China Daily MUN (CDMUN) as an example. It covers over 200 schools across 26 provinces, autonomous regions and special administrative regions in China, according to Hu Linhui, director of the Training Department at 21st Century.CDMUN has helped schools in the east and west across China talk and learn more from each other. “Schools in the west are now using MUN to help mix different subjects together,just like schools in the east do,” said Hu.“This program has bridged the gap between schools and promoted educational fairness among different places.”1.What was the main topic of the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy?A. How to improve debate skills in students.B. How to improve students’ public diplomacy skills.C. How to increase logical thinking among students.D. The history and importance of public diplomacy.2.Why does Wei Huacan find MUN activities helpful for his future dream?A. Because he enjoys traveling to different countries.B. Because MUN activities cover topics related to law.C. Because he wants to become a teacher.D. Because he likes to read international court cases.3.What does Zhang Lingyun believe MUN activities can help students with?A. Improve their logical thinking and public speaking skills.B. Learn more about international diplomacy.C. Become better at writing essays.D. Gain more knowledge about different cultures.4.What does a underlined sentence express the Chen Wuyue 's meaning?A. We should speak and think properly.B. Standing and speaking are also correct.C. We also need to speak and think from the others’ viewsD. Book knowledge is important but social practice is more important.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. MUN is a platform for students to learn about international relations.B.

MUN activities are beneficial for students' personal and academic development.E篇:阅读理解Have you ever felt like you’re in your own small world, where everything you hear or see just makes you more sure of what you already think? It’s like being in an “echo chamber (信息茧房)” – a place where your own ideas keep coming back to you, and you don’t hear any different ones. This isn’t something new, but with everyone on social media, it’s happening a lot more now.Echo chambers are like invisible (看不见的) rooms on the internet where everyone agrees with you. Think about how people used to sit around a fire, telling stories that made everyone else all nod and smile. Now, we have the internet – our modern-day fire – where platforms let people from all over the world share their thoughts. Social media platforms know exactly what we like. That’s thanks to very clever algorithms (算法) - sets of rules that computers follow to figure out what you enjoy based on what you click on, like, and share online. These algorithms watch what we do on the internet to show us more information that matches our interests and even what our friends like.But, being in echo chambers can be a bit tricky (棘手的). They make us feel good because we’re surrounded by views we agree with, but they also make us see the world in a very limited way. This can make our opinions very fixed and make it hard for us to understand people who think differently. It might even make us feel more separated and worried because everyone outside our “bubble ” seems so different.Luckily, there are ways to break free from echo chambers. One big step is to challenge ourselves by looking for information from different sources . This means exploring more diverse or different things on the internet, reading different kinds of stories, and talking to people with other views. Also, ask questions about where information comes from, double-check facts and be open-minded. In this way, we can make sure we understand the wider world a lot better.1.What does the term “echo chamber” refer to?A. A physical room where people share stories.B. A place on the internet where everyone agrees with you.C. A social media platform for sharing personal ideas.D. A modern-day tool for telling stories around a fire.2.What role do algorithms play in creating echo chambers?A. They connect people with different views.B. They encourage people to share more stories.C. They promote diverse discussions on the internet.D. They limit the type of information people see.3 What might be a reason someone feels separated and worried in an echo chamber?A. They are unable to share their own stories.B. They are unable to access social media platforms.C. They don't have enough diverse information.D. They feel that everyone outside their bubble is very different.4. What can be inferred about the author's view on echo chambers?A. The author thinks echo chambers are beneficial for forming opinions.B. The author sees echo chambers as a natural part of social media.C. The author believes echo chambers can be limiting and should be avoided.D. The author thinks echo chambers are necessary for sharing personal ideas.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. The history and development of social media platforms.B. The concept and effects of echo chambers on social media.C. The importance of algorithms in shaping our online experience.D. Strategies for promoting diverse discussions on the internet.F篇:阅读理解History is a tricky puzzle. It's dug up, written down and argued over. People always say that only the winners ever really get a say, and it's quite hard for historians to uncover the complete truth without any errors or bias.So what happens when history meets films? Can a Hollywood film get the history right and make an entertaining piece of art?Oscar winner Oppenheimer (《奥本海默》) sets a good example. In the film, the conversation between Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein by the lake is not historically accurate, but it feels natural in the whole story, and it serves as the icing on the cake (锦上添花), according to The Paper.There are many other examples like Oppenheimer. Usually, in a two-hour film, it is impossible to show the main character's entire complicated life. To make the story fun and dramatic, film makers need to take essential elements (元素) of the original history and create a new fiction. It's an inevitable and necessary choice.Meanwhile , the film Napoleon (《拿破仑》) shows that not all changes can be helpful. Many people think that the fictional parts of the film make the whole story messy since the storylines of war and love are both done poorly.There are many other examples of successful historical fiction films. It's possible that the very lack of historical precision (准确性) in these films, apart from the historical setting and character names, contributes to their greatness. They can present an attractive story set in a period that continues to be widely discussed in today's world. Whether you're into history or not, it's difficult to deny the emotional power these films bring to the screen.According to The Guardian, historical fiction becomes successful when the film provides an enjoyable experience, instead of aiming for strict historical accuracy. A historical film should be regarded as a work of historical fiction rather than a strict history lesson. Also, it seems unfair to ask that filmmakers strictly follow historians' events when historians often disagree among themselves.1.What is the main challenge historians face when uncovering history?A. The lack of physical evidence.B. The complexity of historical events.C. The bias of the winners' accounts.D. The difficulty of finding written records.2. How does the film Oppenheimer handle historical inaccuracies?A. It avoids creating fictional elements.B. It blends a non-factual conversation seamlessly.C. It focuses on the main character's entire life.D. It prioritizes historical accuracy over entertainment.3.What can be inferred about the film Napoleon?A. It is an example of a successful historical fiction film.B. It is praised for its accurate historical portrayal.C. Its fictional parts are considered to be chaotic.D. It focuses on the main character's emotional journey.4.What does The Guardian suggest about historical fiction films?A. They should always be historically accurate.B. They should be entertaining rather than strictly accurate.C. They should not be considered as works of art.D. They should only be made by professional historians.5. What is the main idea of the passage?A. History is difficult to interpret accurately.B. Hollywood films cannot represent history correctly.C. Filmmakers should follow historians' accounts strictly.D. Historical fiction films should be entertaining and emotionally powerful.G篇:阅读理解Do you know that our lives are actually controlled by something called algorithms? But do we really get how they change the things we like and who we are?In a book called "Filterworld: How Algorithms Make Our Culture All the Same," a person named Kyle Chayka talks about how these smart computer rules, or algorithms, are on websites like Instagram and Spotify. They make our culture very same-y. What we like doesn't just come from us, but from these computer rules that want to keep us looking at our screens all the time. If what we like helps make us who we are, then this could be a bigger problem for how we think and feel than we think. Just mindlessly scrolling on Netflix or TikTok might not seem like a big deal, but after a while, we might forget what we really like.These taste-making computer rules are hard to escape. Chayka shows us this by talking about how they are in every part of life: like what we see on TikTok, where we eat when we use Google Maps, the music we listen to on Spotify, and even who we might want to go on a date with on Tinder. This world where computer rules make our decisions can change a lot of things about how we live and move around our towns and cities. It makes everything kind of flat and the same. No one can avoid this Filterworld completely.If you're lucky and don't have to use these computer rules for your work or school, you might be able to take a break from them sometimes. But what if your friend tells you about a movie they saw on the internet or you want to buy some shoes because everyone is wearing them after seeing them in an ad? It can feel like there's nothing you can do.But even though this Filterworld is hard to get away from, there is still hope. You can start by paying more attention to the things you choose to watch or listen to. This could mean learning more about a movie you saw or giving money to an artist you like. Even just telling a friend about a music album you think they might like is better than just mindlessly watching random stuff on TikTok. As Chayka says, to fight against these computer rules, "you have to really want to and choose to live your life in a different way."1. What does the term "algorithms" refer to in the context of the article?A. Rules that control our daily routines.B. Computer programs that decide what we see online.C. Games that we play on websites like Instagram.D. Ways to calculate our preferences in math.2. What is Kyle Chayka’s opinion on algorithms?A. They improve our tastes.B. They make our culture more alike.C. They help to identify our personality.D. They contribute to psychological problems.3. What might be a reason someone would feel helpless in the context of the article?A. They cannot understand how algorithms work.B. They are unable to stop using their favorite social media.C. They see a movie recommended by a friend on the internet.D. They want to buy shoes because of a social media advertisement.4. Which of the following is a way to resist the impact of algorithms?A. Limiting the use of social media platforms.B. Making choices based on friends’ suggestions.C. Getting more involved with the selected media.D. Disconnecting from social media advertisements.5. What is the best title for the text?A. Algorithms: Cultural TakeoverB. The Secret of AlgorithmsC. Social Media: Cultural MessengerD. The Rise of Digital Platforms— 11—。

A,阅读理解Technology has brought ancient poets “back to life”. At the World Robot Conference 2023 in late August in Beijing, there were two robots that looked like the Chinese poets Li Bai and Du Fu. While Li Bai was holding up a cup of wine, Du Fu was sitting at a desk, writing.These are called bionic (仿生的) robots. The robot’s skin is usually made of silicone (硅胶),CGTN explained in a video about Liaoning-based producer EXROBOTS. The robot’s skin is very soft. You can even see veins (血管) under the skin.Another human-like robot also attracted attention recently. It was created by US company Apptronik. Named Apollo, it has around 30 muscles (肌肉). For now, the robot can only make simple movements, such as walking and waving . The robot’s head has cameras and sensors (传感器) inside. They can help it map out a 360-degree view (景象) of its environment. They also help the robot keep balance when walking on unstable (不稳定的) surfaces.Nowadays, bionic human-like robots mostly work with humans, such as by being tour guides or helpingvisitors at front desks. This could be because people are comfortable living and working with machines that look and act like them. They can “strike a chord (引起共鸣) with people,” a US robotics scientist Marc Raibert told New Yorker.As more human-like robots come out, safety will be the key, according to the Robot Report website. When a 70-kilogram robot breaks down and falls, humans nearby may get hurt.1. What does “brought ancient poets ‘back to life’” mean in Paragraph 1?A. Technology can make ancient poets come back to life.B. The robots looked and acted like real ancient poets.C. Visitors can experience real ancient life with new technology.D. The robots can create better poems than poets.2. The skin of robots made by EXROBOTS shows _____.A. how human-like their robots areB. how soft the robot’s skin isC. what the robot’s skin is made fromD. how different it is from other robots3. What can Apollo do with built-in sensors?A. Wave at humans.B. Walk stably.C. Know human faces.D. Draw attention.4. In which situation can bionic robots help you now?A. When you want someone to repair your car.B. When you want someone to travel with you.C. When you don’t want to do housework.D. When you want to know the floor information of a building.5. What do people worry about with human-like robots?A. Users may fall in love with the robots.B. Human-like robots look scary.C. The robots’ weight may cause problems.D. The robots may get out of control.【答案】BABDC【解析】本文介绍人形机器人的一些应用和特点。

He came to a farm, asked for a bowl of milk and paid for it. He sat in the shade of a tree, broke his bread into pieces and dropped them into the milk.Freddy, a poor boy from the nearby village, who was pale(苍白的) because he was always undernourished(营养不良的),looked at the boy under the tree and wanted very much to share that bowl of milk with him, but he was too shy to ask.The rich boy noticed that boy and thought about leaving something in his bowl of milk, but he did not do so. When he finished drinking his milk, he noticed some writing on the bottom(底部)of his bowl and he began to blush(脸红). He immediately asked for another bowl of milk and a large piece of bread. When they were brought to him, he called Freddy, broke the bread and told the boy to eat.The sentence that he had seen at the bottom of the bowl read: “Those who forget t he poor do not deserve(应得)their own food.”The rich boy said to himself, “This is a sentence that should be inscribed on every dish that the rich own!”1.

I know my mum wants me to eat healthily,but the fact is that I don't have much time and fast food is often an easy thing to get and eat.

But most of them are not for eating; they will be carved(雕刻)into pumpkin lanterns. This makes pumpkins a special part of American agriculture(农业).For those people who like nice food, they have a few questions: Are the pumpkins sold for Jacko'lanterns different from pumpkins sold as food? And are Halloween pumpkins good to eat?Howden pumpkins are the most mon decorative pumpkin variety(常见的装饰性南瓜品种). They are grown specifically for carving into Jacko'lanterns, so they don't taste very good. They have thin walls, and even a cheap knife can cut them. “Uncut carving pumpkins are safe to eat, but it's not the best kind to use for cooking,”says Daria McKelvey, a supervisor for the Kemper Centre for Home Gardening at the Missouri Botanical Garden. Carving pumpkins are grown for their large size, not the taste.If you really want to cook your carving pumpkin, take the seeds. Seeds from different pumpkin varieties can bee a nice snack. Another way is to mash(捣成泥)your carving pumpkin and add some sugar, making it into a dessert(甜点).Whatever you do, make sure your pumpkin isn't carved up already when you decide to cook it. “Never use a pumpkin that's been carved into a Jacko'lantern, or you could be doing with bacteria, dirt and dust, and other microbes(微生物),”McKelvey says.1.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A.

Do you think French fries are really from France?French people have invented many great things. However, one thing they did not invent is the French fry.There's a story about French fries. French fries actually e from Belgium(比利时).People there began frying potatoes in the late 1600s. At that time, poor villagers in Belgium often ate small fried fish. During the winter months, the rivers were frozen. The villagers could not fish. They had to find other food. So they turned to the potato. They sliced and fried it in much the same way as they prepared the fish. Then the earliest French fries were born.During World War I , some American soldiers in Belgium were first introduced to French fries. The official language(官方语言)of the Belgian army was French. So the American soldiers named the delicious fried food “French fries”.The name stuck. Today, many people still mistakenly(错误地)believe that French people invented the fried potatoes. It's interesting that French fries e from Belgium instead of France.1. Where do French fries e from?____________________________________________________________________________________________ 2.

A helpful otter一只乐于助人的水獭体裁记叙文难度★★词数174Mrs Zhao from Beijing goes to a zoo in Shanghai. There are all kinds of animals at the zoo. She sees a cute otter and takes out her phone to make a video of it. But her phone falls into the water.The otter's name is You Tiao. He sees the phone in the water and quickly jumps into the water. He soon finds the phone and gives it to a zookeeper. The zookeeper then gives the phone to Mrs Zhao.Mrs Zhao is very happy to get her phone back. To thank You Tiao, she gives a pennant(锦旗)to the zoo. “The otter saved my phone. Ill make a trip to see him again!” says Mrs Zhao. You Tiao is the first animal at the zoo to get a pennant, so the zoo gives him more fish for his dinner. Otters like You Tiao at the zoo learn to pick up things in the water. The zoo wants people to see the cute animals' work and stop throwing rubbish into the water. The zookeeper says You Tiao is very smart and he is good at doing this.1.You Tiao helps Mrs Zhao to________.A. make a great videoB. get out of the waterC. give the phone to a zookeeperD. take her phone out of the water2. What does Mrs Zhao give to the zoo?A.A pennant.B. A phone.C. A photo.D.A fish.3.What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to(指的是)?A. Using the phone.B. Throwing rubbish.C. Swimming in the water.D. Picking up things in the water.4.What do we know about Mrs Zhao?A. She is afraid of otters.B. She buys a new phone.C. She es from Shanghai.D. She wants to visit the zoo again.5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Mrs Zhao takes out her phone to take a photo of You Tiao's picking up rubbish in the water.B. You Tiao returns the phone to Mrs Zhao because the zookeeper asks him to do so.C. The zoo gives more fish to You Tiao because he picks up the phone in the water.D. To stop people throwing rubbish into the water, the zookeeper gives the phone to Mrs. Zhao.重点句型及难旬分析:You Tiao is the first animal at the zoo to get a pennant, so the zoo gives him more fish for his dinner.句意:“油条”是动物园里第一只得到锦旗的动物,因此动物园给了他更多的鱼作为晚餐.to get a pennant是不定式短语作后置定语,修饰the first animal; so意为“因此”.答案解析:1.D 根据第二段中的“The otter's name is You Tiao. He sees the phone in the water and quickly jumps into the water. He soon finds the phone and gives it to a zookeeper.”可知,“油条”跳进水里,把从水里捡起来,然后给了饲养员.所以“油条”帮助赵女士从水里捡起不慎掉落的.故选D.2.A 根据最后一段中的“To thank You Tiao, she gives a pennant to the zoo.”可知,赵女士给了动物园一面锦旗.故选A.3.D 根据最后一段中的“Otters like You Tiao at the zoo learn to pick up thi ngs in the water.”可知,像“油条”一样的水獭在动物园都学会了从水里捡东西.这里是说“油条”很擅长这个,因此this指的是从水里捡东西.故选D.4.D根据最后一段中的“The otter saved my phone. I'll make a trip to see him again!' says Mrs. Zhao.”可知,赵女士会再次去动物园看望“油条”.故选D.5.C 根据最后一段中的“You Tiao is the first animal at the zoo to get a pennant, so the zoo gives him more fish for his dinner.”可知,“油条”是动物园里第一只因捡起掉进水里的而得到锦旗的动物,所以动物园给了他更多的鱼作为晚餐.故选C.Birds which can fly underwater会水下飞的鸟体裁说明文难度★★★词数185Which birds can't fly? Did you just think of penguins? Indeed(的确),these cute birds can only walk and maybe run a little bit on the land. But when they're underwater, they can “fly”!Penguins have to work harder than other birds to “fly”. Most birds only use the muscles(肌肉)in their chest(胸部)to move their wings. But penguins use both the muscles in their chest and the muscles between their shoulders to “fly”. The penguin's special wings are called flippers(鳍状肢).A penguin uses the muscles between its shoulders to lift its flippers up. Then, it uses the muscles in its chest to pull the flippers down.Penguins move very fast underwater. When they want to change direction(方向),they usually use their feet and head. If a penguin wants to turn to the right, for example, it puts down its right foot and turns its head to the right. When a penguin wants to stop, its two feet e down and the bird stops flapping(拍打)its flippers. Penguins “fly”freely in the vast(广阔的)oceans!1.What can penguins do on the land according to the passage?A. Walk.B. Run fast.C. Fly.D. Climb trees.2. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. Why penguins can “fly”.B. How penguins can “fly”.C. Where penguins can “fly”.D. When penguins can “fly”.3. What can penguins use to change direction?A. Muscles and wings.B. Muscles and shoulders.C. Feet and flippers.D. Feet and head.4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Penguins usually “fly” easily.B. Flippers help penguins “fly”.C. Penguins move fast on land.D. Penguins can fly in the sky.重点句型及难句分析:When they want to change direction, they usually use their feet and head.句意:当它们想改变方向时,它们通常用它们的脚和头.when 意为“当······时候”,引导时间状语从句; change direction 意为“改变方向”.答案解析:1.A 根据第一段中的“.these cute birds can only walk and maybe run a little bit on the land.”可知,在陆地上,企鹅只能走和慢跑.故选A.2.B 第二段阐述企鹅与其他鸟不同,为了“飞”,它既要用胸部间的肌肉也要用肩膀间的肌肉,也就是说,企鹅如何飞.故选B.3.D根据第三段中的“When they want to change direction, they usually use their feet and head.”可知,企鹅用脚和头改变方向.故选D.4.B根据第二段中的“The penguin's special wings are called flippers. A penguin uses the muscles between its shoulders to lit its flippers up...”可知,企鹅特殊的翅膀叫鳍状肢,企鹅利用肩膀的肌肉来抬起鳍状肢,并且利用胸部间的肌肉来放下鳍状肢.由此推断鳍状肢能帮助企鹅“飞”.故选B.How do dogs talk?狗是如何说话的?体裁说明文难度★★★词数236Most of the time, a dog wags its tail to show that it's friendly. The dog is saying,“I feel happy!”This dog is having fun. How can you tell? The dog's tail is in the air. Its ears are up. It seems to be smiling.This dog is scared(害怕的). How can you tell? It is hiding. It is saying,“I feel afraid.”Some dogs use other ways to show they are scared. They may drop their tails between their legs. They may make their ears flat. They may bark. These dogs are also saying,“I feel afraid.”This dog is angry. How can you tell? It is making a deep sound called a growl(咆哮). It is showing its teeth. It is saying,“________” You should never play with a dog that is angry. It might bite.Young dogs like to play together. They may growl. They may roll in the grass and bite each other. It may seem like these dogs are fighting. But don't worry. That is just the way that young dogs play. It is also a safe way to learn about fighting. Dogs need to know how to protect themselves from other animals.Now you know how to watch and listen. You can look at dogs' ears and tails. You can look at how dogs stand. You can listen to the sounds dogs make. Now you can understand how dogs talk!1. What does a dog usually do when it feels happy?A. It may wag its tail.B. It may drop its tail between their legs.C. It may make a deep sound.D. It may roll in the grass.2.According to the passage, how many ways do dogs use to show they are scared?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D.

Because it might play with you.重点句型及难句分析:That is just the way that young dogs play.句意:那只是小狗玩耍的方式.that引导定语从句,修饰the way.答案解析:1.A 根据第一段“Most of the time, a dog wags its tail to show that it's friendly. The dog is saying,' I feel happy!'”和第二段内容可知,大多数时候,当一只狗感到开心时,它会摇尾巴.故选A.2.D 根据第三段和第四段内容可知,当狗感到害怕时,它们会采取躲起来、把尾巴夹在两腿之间、耷拉着耳朵和吠叫这四种方法来表达.故选D.3.B 根据第五段内容可知,当狗生气时,它会发出咆哮声,并且露出牙齿,所以它最有可能在说“离我远点!”.故选B.4.C 根据第五段最后两句可知,我们之所以不应该和一只生气的狗玩,是因为它可能会咬人.故选C.An earthworm's home蚯蚓的家体裁说明文难度★★★词数281I'm an earthworm.

Soil includes ground(磨碎的)and partly dissolved rocks(溶解的岩石)and minerals(矿物质).Soil contains water and air, too. They are good things for me. I need water to keep my skin moist. I get air from the soil. Can you believe it? I breathe through my skin!Soil also has humus(腐殖质) in it. Humus is small bits of dead plants and animals. Humus is usually brown or black, so it can change the colour of the soil. Humus is food for me. It is what I eat.My home has different layers. The top layer is full of humus, lots of roots, and plenty of air and water. The middle layer has small rocks and some humus. The bottom layer is made up of tree roots and bedrock. I mostly live in the top two layers where there is food, air, and water.I do a lot to fix up my home. When I eat humus, I grind it into even smaller bits. In this way, plants can use it as food. But I do more than that.When I crawl through the soil, I mix the layers. My tunnels help bring air, water, and food to other living things. Even the slime on my skin is good for the soil.Next time you see an earthworm like me, think about how I care for the soil, my home.1. What does an earthworm eat?A. Humus.B. Dirt.C. Rocks.D.

Earthworms are good for soil, plants and other living things.D. Ground and partly dissolved rocks and minerals in soil are not good for earthworms.重点句型及难句分析:I live in a wonderful place with plenty of food, fresh air, and just the right amount of moisture.句意:我住的地方非常棒,食物充足,空气清新,湿度适中.plenty of意为“大量的”,后接可数名词复数或不可数名词;with意为“带有,具有”,表示人或物的特征,with plenty of food, fresh air, and just the right amount of moisture 作后置定语,修饰place.答案解析:1.A 根据第六段中的“Humus is food for me. It is what I eat.”可知,蚯蚓吃的是腐殖质.故选A.2.D 根据第四段“Soil is a lot more than dirt...Soil includes ground and partly dissolved rocks and minerals.”,第五段中的“Soil contains water and air, too.”和第六段中的“Soil also has humus init.Humus is small bits of dead plants and animals.”可知,土壤中不仅仅是泥土,还包含磨碎的和溶解的岩石和矿物质、水和空气、动植物尸体,所以①③④人选,②排除.故选D.3.C 根据第七段中的“My home has different layers. The top layer... The middle layer... The bottom layer...”可知,蚯蚓的家一共有三层.故选C.4.C 根据倒数第三段中的“plants can use it as food”和倒数第二段中的“My tunnels help bring air,water, and food to other living things.

In the sport of rock climbing, for example, one needs to have a strong grip in order not to fall from a rock wall. But many insects, such as ants, can easily climb up walls. So, why don't they fall off?Although walls can look very smooth to us, there're actually many tiny holes and very narrow cracks in them. Ants and many other insects have hundreds of thousands of tiny hairs on their feet. These hairs can fit into the holes and cracks in the walls. The molecules in the hairs stick to the molecules on the walls. This force is stronger than the insect's own gravity, so it can stay safely on the walls.Besides, some insects can also produce some sticky chemicals from the ends of these hairs. These chemicals are like glue and help insects stick to a wall. Watch a fly walk on a surface. You may see its small “footprints” there because there is sticky “glue” on its feet.开心辞典gravity n. 重力crack n.裂缝pull v.拉,拽molecule n.分子grip n.握力stick v.黏,贴rock n.岩石force n.力,力量insect n.昆虫produce v.产生although conj.虽然,尽管sticky adj.黏性的smooth adj.光滑的chemical n.化学品,化学制品actually adv.实际上glue n.胶水tiny adj.极小的surface n. 表面hole n.洞footprint n.脚印,足迹narrow adj.狭窄的。

However, when females enter the workplace, they may find things are still difficult. Of the 145 countries and regions surveyed in a WEF (世界经济论坛) report, 97 have more female students thanmale students in universities. But only four of those countries and regions have a majority (多数) of female leaders in the workplace. “Women tend to (往往会) be viewed on the basis of their performance, while men are often promoted (升职) for their potential (潜力),” The Washington Post wrote.Old thinking about men and women is still influencing women’s careers, according to Saadia Zahidi, a WEF official. For example, many people believe boys are better at science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). And even today, women make up only a third of the students in these fields worldwide. Girls and women need to master the skills and training that are needed for the jobs of tomorrow, especially in the STEM fields, said Zahidi.The gender gap (性别差距) in the workplace is not just about less pay for women. It’s also about women making sure their pay shows their value. Actress Sandra Bullock once said, “Once we start changing how we think about women, the pay gap will take care of itself.”( )1.

On January27,in order to win the new pneumonia Resistance War(抗击新型肺炎战),the Ministry of Education issued(教育部公布)a notice on putting off the start time of school in spring2020.It was said that school should not start before March.The exact start time of school will depend on situations and further notices.
However,many parents are very worried that putting off the start of school may affect(影响)children’s studies.If they have such a long winter vacation,children will not learn any knowledge,read books or study at all.They may forget what they have learned before.Staying at home for a long time will make them keep eating,sleeping and playing,which seriously affect their physical and mental health.
In short,the close of school influences learning and develops bad habits,so how should we avoid these problems?Local education departments have also issued a notice,that is,to organize online teaching and create a network platform(平台),
where necessary courses will be shown every day,and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject,and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.
It should be said that such a method is very good.It can not only keep students indoors and not worry about the infection(感染)of the disease,but also make them study at home,improve their learning ability,and truly achieve“no suspension of classes”.Both the platform itself and the recorded lesson resources are more useful, and are welcomed by parents and teachers.
Of course,except for learning at home,it is also necessary to teach children about health knowledge,especially how to keep away from touching virus and other knowledge popularization;at the same time,it is also necessary for children to do some physical exercises or some games,which is good for physical health at home.
11.Parents worried about putting off the start time of school because_______.
A.children may be infected by virus
B.they don’t like the idea of online learning
C.children’s study may be affected
D.parents have no time to look after children
12.Except for learning at home,what is also necessary according to the writer?
A.To keep playing online games.
B.To keep touching different people.
C.To do some physical exercises outside.
D.To teach children about health knowledge.
13.The underlined word“suspension”in Paragraph4probably means_______.
A.plan
B.stop
C.growth
D.change
14.Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Students would rather go to school.
B.The date of going to school is decided.
C.Online teaching will help students study.
D.Parents believe children can teach themselves.
15.What’s the best title for this passage?
A.A Special Way to Learn at Home
B.A New War with a New Chance
C.A Way to Keep Mentally Healthy
D.A Method to Make Parents Worried
