Take 200 boys, between the ages of 12 and 16, and find out their living environment. The predict their chances for the future.After doing some research, the students found that 90% of the boys would spend some time in jail (监狱). Twenty-five years later, another group of students was given the job: Go to test what the first group of students had predicted. They went back to the same place. These 200 boys had then become men. Some of them were still there, a few had died and some had moved away. The students found that only four of them had ever been sent tot jail.These men had lived in a place full of crime (犯罪, 罪行) for many years. Why did the have such a good record?

But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods. He had to leave home and wasforced to live in another country. It so happened that in this village there were many shoemakers who were spending a lot of money buying tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers’ shoes.Our young Mr. Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that once upon a time he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers. He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in the workshop. The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer. And after a while, Mr. Smith found that he was soon making the finest tacks in the village.“How funny it seems,” he used to say, “even making tacks can make money.

A good beginning makes a good ending.D. Every man has his gift.答案：CDB5In the early days of human history, people survived by hunting wild animals, or gathering wild grains and plants for food. Then, some people learned to grow crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm” is linked to economics. The word “farm” comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. E xperts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly payment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early England did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In England, farmers used hawthorn trees along the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a hedge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and protected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging” to describe steps that could be taken to protect against financial loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other team, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he invests in several different kinds of business. One business may fail, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered when it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise person copies the farmer. He works when conditions are right.1.We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early England _________.A. had land of their ownB. paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC. used hedging fieldsD. often suffered from financial loss2.Which of the following is wise?A. A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB. Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC. Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD. Gather hay as it is rainy3.If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he learns to _________.A. become a wise farmerB. hedge his betC. gather his hayD. make hay while the sun shines答案：CAD6My grandfather is eighty years old. He always complains about how fast things have changed, and he often says that life used to be better."Families aren't what they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If the husband and wife have problems with their marriage, they no longer stay together. And mothers used to stay at home and take care of their children, but now parents are both busy working. No one has time to look after children at home.And the cars! No one walks anymore. More and more people drive. We used to walk five miles to school on school days, even in winter. But now we don't. And in school, children don't have to think anymore. In math class, for example, we used to add, subtract, multiply and divide by using our heads. But now kids don't use their heads anymore. Instead, they use calculators.Most families have computers now. In the past we didn't have computers. We didn't even have lights. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now we don't often eat home-cooked food.And people talk less to each other than before. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think...Life used to be simple, but it isn't anymore."1. What does the grandfather think of the life now?A. It's as good as it used to beB. It's worse than it used to beC. It's better than it used to beD. It's the same as it used to be2. What does the underlined word "marriage" mean in Chinese?A. 生活B. 工作C. 婚姻D. 家庭3. What did the grandfather used to do?A. He used to use calculators in math classB. He used to drive to school in winterC. He used to go to school by bikeD. He used to walk five miles to school4. What changes have happened?①There are lights at home②People often eat home-cooked food now③Lots of families have computers④More and more people drive instead of walkingA. ①②④B. ②③④C. ①②③D. ①③④5.

A few days later the young man asked the same question again . Einstein was very annoyed ．He did not say anything ,but wrote a few words on a piece of paper . On it was written: A=X+Y+Z.“What does this mean ?”asked the young man .“A means “success””explained the old scientist . “X stands for hard work ,Y for good method (方法)and Z Z means stop talking and get down to work.”1.The young man _________.A. wanted to meet EinsteinB. wanted to be a great scientist like EinsteinC. was eager (渴望) to know the secret of successD. wanted to be a student of Einstein2.In Einstein’s opinion the secret of success was ________.A. to work with great energy (精力，活力)B. to study hard day and nightC. to learn from great scientistsD. to raise (提出)questions as many as you could3.“Y”stands for _______.A. hard workB. great energyC. great successD. good manner(方法)4.The word “annoyed”means ________.A. angryB. sadC. lovelyD. glad5.Einstein was a man who ______A. liked to talk with young peopleB. liked to help othersC. liked to make friends with young peopleD. liked to work , but didn’t like to talkBBritish newspapers are much smaller than they used to be and their readers are often in a hurry ,so newspapermen write as few words as possible .They tell their readers at once what happened ,where ,when and how it happened and what was the result : how many people were killed ,what change was done and so on .Readers want the fact(事实) set out as fully and accurately as possible .Readers are also interested in the people who have seen the accident. So a newspaperman always likes to get some information (信息)from someone who wasthere, which can be given in the person’s own words .Because he can use only a few words ,the newspaperman must choose those words carefully ,every one must be effective(有效). Instead of “he called out in a loud voice”, he writes”he shouted”; instead of “the loose stones rolled noisily down the side of the mountain”, he will write”they thundered down the mountainside”. Because many of the readers aren’t very clever, and most of them are in a hurry.1.From the text, we learn that newspapermen write as fewwords as possible ,because readers___.A. want to know more about the newsB. take no interest in what has happenedC. have no time to read the news carefullyD. pay much attention to the result2.The underlined word”one”in the text refers to ______.A.wordB.newspapermanC.readerD.person3.Which of the following would best complete the text ?A. he will keep his writing shortB. he won’t care about his writingC. he will give nothing but informationD. he won’t make his writing good enough.4.In what way do you think British newspapers have becomesmaller?A.

八年级阅读理解题【模拟试题】（答题时间：120分钟）阅读理解练习：（一）Hi, Louis!I’m writing to tell you something about the customs and festivals. Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the U.S., everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for partying with friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family members. The opposite is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate the birth of Christ.I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them at the library from morning to evening.Love,Sue 根据短文内容，判断正误。

I dare (敢) not look down. Then it turned around fast and moved very quickly at the same time. The wind was so strong that I couldn't open my eyes. I felt as if I would fall down. I couldn't stop screaming through the whole ride. It only moved for a few minutes, but it seemed to be many hours. When the game ended, I was too afraid to walk.Later we took part in the game called "Crossing Jurassic (朱罗纪)". After waiting for half an hour, we got into a boat. The boat went into a tall building.

She is doing some voluntary work at an after-school program to help students from poor families.On the first day of her work, she noticed that many kids were lining up for free sandwiches and fruits. She was surprised. One of the organizers explains that many of these students don't get enough to eat at home. So a school lunch or an after-meal might be the most food they would get all the day. She has also been told that some hungry kids can receive free lunches, but others are only allowed reduced-price meals, and those students' families have to pay for the part of their food.Lee was shocked, she decided to offer help to those who are suffering from hunger, "I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you don't have to wait to be an adult to fix it," says Lee. She and a group of friends are using their programme skill to create a new app called Food of Thought, which will allow parents, students, and even kind-hearted strangers to donate money to lunch accounts for students in a nearby school.(1)What did Alice Lee see on the first day of her voluntary work?(2)Who should pay for the half-priced food?(3)What was she doing to help the poor kids?(4)What is the main idea of this passage?4．Look carefully at the back of a California state quarter. A man with a walking stick is pictured there. A bird called a California condor (大秃鹫) is flying overhead. Who is this man, and why is he so important that he is featured (处于显著地位) on the back of a coin?The man on this quarter is John Muir. Even as a child, Muir loved watching nature. As a young man, he spent much of his life exploring the beauty of the wilderness. He walked more than a thousand miles across the country, through fields and woods. John Muir liked writing about the places he visited, describing their beauty.Muir also wrote about problems. In order to create more farmland for sheep and cattle, rnanytrees were being cut down. This made Muir unhappy and worried, because he knew that treeswere important to forests and to the animals that lived in them. Muir believed that nature should be conserved (保护) instead of being changed by human beings. He wrote articles inmagazines and newspapers to spread the word about conserving forests. Soon, others began to listen.Muir wrote letters to important people, such as President Theodore Roosevelt. The president admired Muir's love for nature. When Roosevelt came to visit Muir in California. Muir convinced (说服) the president to go camping with him for three nights under the trees so theycould talk about conservation. Later, President Roosevelt set aside 148 million acres of landfor national forests and established (建立) five national parks. National parks are large areas of land that are protected from development. This means that people cannot build homes orbusinesses there. One of these parks is Yosemite National Park, the area that is featured on the back of the California quarter.Though it has been almost one hundred years since John Muir died, people continue his work today. His work as a conse rvationist helped us to see the beauty of our natural world. John Muir made us understand the importance of protecting our earth and our resources—then, now, and for the future.(1)What did John Muir spend much of his life doing when he was a young man?(2)Why did President Theodore Roosevelt visit John Muir?(3)What happened after President Roosevelt went camping with John Muir?(4)Why is John Muir featured on the back of a California state quarter?(5)What is the writer's purpose of writing this article?5．Long ago, Bluebird's feathers were the colour of dust. She did not like her ugly colour. She was attracted by the colour of the lake near her home. It was as blue as the sky after as torm. Bluebird wanted to be the colour of that beautiful lake very much.Flapping her wings one morning, Bluebird flew from her tree to the blue lake. Then she bathedin the water three times, After each bath, she sang, "Blue water, Still water, I went in, I am blue," Bluebird repeated this every morning. On the third day, she came out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers.Now Coyote was a trickster (骗子)—and hungry too. He stayed behind Bluebird's tree for a longtime every day and watched her go to the lake, He pretended (伪装) to be interested in everything she did. He wanted Bluebird for lunch, but he was afraid of the blue water. On the third Morning, Coyote saw Bluebird come out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Impressed, he sat next to Bluebird's tree and waited for her. When she returned, he asked, "How did you get blue feathers? I want to be blue like the mountains too," Bluebird didn't believe Coyote, but she taught him how to bathe three times each morning and how to sing her song, Coyote did what she said, and after three days of bathing in the lake, his white fur turned deep blue.Convinced (确信的) that blue fur was even more beautiful than blue feathers, Coyote forgot all about being hungry. He ran as fast as he could to the top of the hill. Standing on his back legs, he raised his front legs off the ground and howled. But Coyote slipped (滑倒) and rolled down the hill, He couldn't stop himself, and the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur. He rolled and rolled until he hit into Bluebird's tree heavily. No matter how much he tried, foolish Coyotecould not shake the dust from his fur. And so the fur of all coyotes has the dull colour of dustto this very day.(1)How many times did Bluebird bathe every morning before she had beautiful bluefeathers?(2)Why was Coyote a trickster?(3)Where did Coyote go after his fur turned blue?(4)Why did Coyote forget all about being hungry?(5)What words does the writer use to help you imagine the colour blue?6．The film Alice Through the Looking Glass is on. Millions of people go to cinemas to see it. The little girl Alice, with long hair of gold, is alive in people's mind again after the film Alice in Wonderland was shown in 2010.These two popular films were adapted from the novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking-Glass. Both of them were written by Lewis Carroll, a famous English writer, who himself was as interesting as his books.Lewis Carroll was a math teacher and talented writer.In 1856, he met Henry Liddell and his three lovely daughters. His friendship with the family became an important part of his life over the following years. He liked the girls very much, especially the youngest one, Alice Liddell. He often told stories to make them happy. One day he took the girls to a boat trip. To make the time more enjoyable,he began a story about the adventures of a little girl named Alice in wonderland. Many other strange characters such as the Mouse,the March Hare,the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts were brought to this wonderful world too.Alice Liddell loved the story and she begged Carroll to write it down for her. After Carroll finished the manuscript of the story Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,he gave it to the girl as a Christmas present. When the book was published in 1865,it was an immediate success and soon was famous around the world.(1)The films Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass were from ____.(2)Lewis Carroll was the three lovely daughters,____.(3)Lewis Carroll wrote down the story he told on the boat trip because ____.(4)According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?7．Have you ever been ill? When you are ill, you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over your body. You don't want to work, and you stay in bed, feeling very sad. What makes us ill? It is germs(细菌) .Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can't find them with your eyes, but you can see them with a microscope. They are very very small and there could be hundreds of them on a very small thing. Germs are always found in dirty water. When we look at dirty water under the microscope, we shall see them in it. So your parents will not let you drink dirty water. Germs aren't found only in water. They are found in air and dust. If you cut your finger, if some of the dust from the floor goes into the cut. some of the germs would go into your finger. Your finger would become big and red, and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes the germs would go into all of your body, and you would have pain everywhere.(1)Which of the following is true?(2)What is a microscope used for?(3)Why don't your parents let you drink dirty water?(4)Which of the following is not true?(5)What's the main idea of the passage?8．I had a very special teacher in high school many years ago. Her husband died because of traffic accident. About a week after his death, she shared some of her insights with us.The class was clearly over. She said,＂Before class is over, I would like to share with all of you an important thought.” “Each of us is on Earth to learn, share, love and *appreciate. We must *cherish every single day.”Her eyes beginning to water, she went on, “So I would like you to make me a *promise. From now on, on your way to school, or on your way home, find something beautiful. It could be a scent—perhaps of freshly baked bread, or it could be the sound of the*breeze slightly *rustling the leaves in the trees.”“Please look for these things, and cherish them. For, although it may sound * trite, these things are the *stuff of life. They are the little things on Earth to enjoy. They are the things we often take for *granted. We must try to notice them because it can be easily taken away at any time.”The class was completely quiet. We picked up our books and went out of the room silently. That afternoon I noticed more things on my way from school than I had that whole semester.I often think of that teacher and try to appreciate all off those things that sometimes we overlook.Take notice of something special you see on your lunch time today. Walk barefoot along the beach at sunset. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we regret, but the things we didn't do.(2)The words “insight” in the first paragraph means__________.(3)From the underlined sentence in the third paragraph we know the writer's teacher suggests ____________.(4)The best title for the passage may be _________.9．People fell in love with Elizabeth Taylor in 1944, when she acted in the movie National Velvet — the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl who won first place in a famous horse race. At first, the producers of the movie told Elizabeth Taylor that she was too short to play the part of Velvet. However, they waited for four months until three inches (英寸) added to her height. Elizabeth Taylor's acting in National Velvet is still considered to be the best and National Velvet became Elizabeth Taylor's first success.Elizabeth Taylor was born in London in 1932. Her parents, both Americans, had moved to London for business. When World War II started, the Taylors moved to California, where Elizabeth Taylor started acting in movies. After her success as a child star, Elizabeth Taylor had no trouble moving into adult roles and won the Academy Award twice for Best Actress for her performance in Butterfield 8 (1960) and Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf? (1966).Elizabeth Taylor is a legend (传奇人物) of our time. Like Velvet Brown in National Velvet, Elizabeth Taylor was very lucky, and she was hard-working, beautiful, famous and rich. When Elizabeth Taylor got older, she seldom acted in movies. Instead, she spent most of time on her business, and she often helped others. Several years ago, she raised more than $40 million for research and education. In March, 2011, Elizabeth Taylor died at the age of 79.(1)The producers didn't let Taylor play the part of Velvet at first because ____.(2)Where did Elizabeth Taylor start acting in movies?(3)When did Elizabeth Taylor win her first Academy Award for Best Actress?(4)What do you know about Velvet Brown in National Velvet?(5)The writer wrote this article to ____.10．Not long ago, I opened an interesting e-mail from Jennifer, a friend of mine. “I've realized I want to be around people who make me happy,” she wrote, “I've been seeing how I feel after communicating with different people and making a mental list of who I feel good about. And you're on my list.”Then she invited me — and 11 other women— to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. We'd chat, eat, and watch feel-good movies. She made it clear in her invitation that there was no stress to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! I e-mailed her back immediately. I was in.Later, Jennifer told me she had some puzzled reactions to her invitation. Though all the women were willing to join, some said they didn't see themselves as cheerful people. “I've told them they didn't have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says.Research shows that gatherings such as Jennifer's make sense. In a US study, researchers measured(测量) the happiness of 4739 people at regular intervals (间隔) over 20 years. The study found that a person's happiness depends on(取决于) the happiness of people they connect with. Amazingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends' friends! And those good feelings seem to be the most contagious (传染性的) among friends of the same sex.“People with more supportive friends are less likely to develop sadness,” says Dr Toupey Luft, a psychologist in Penticyon, British Columbia. “Though you can't choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive(乐观的) relationships to your social circle. Here's how…(1)How many people did Jennifer invite?(2)What kind of things can you do on Jennifer's movie night?(3)What do the underlined words mean?(4)Which of the following is right?11March 16 is World Sleep Day. This year's slogan is “Breathe Easily, Sleep Well”. Its aim is to celebrate the *benefits of good and healthy sleep.Fangfang, from Liaoning, just became a high school student last September. She gets up at 5:30 a.m. every day and goes to bed at about midnight. Fangfang feels sleepy all the time. “I want to finish all my homework first,” she said.Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep*Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students who are 10 to 17 years old, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours every night.But many students don't get enough sleep because of early school start time and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don't get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can't fall asleep quickly. For others,they may even have insomnia, and usually they have to ask the doctors for help.These sleeping problems greatly *affect people's life. Some doctors found out that *lack of sleep for teenagers lead to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, they often become anxious easily.Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include *avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time every night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.More tips to get a good night's sleep:Exercising during the day. You'd better do sports three hours before going to bed.Don't eat big meals before bedtime. Drink a warm glass of milk.If you stay awake worrying about things, try making a list of things that you need to do before you go to bed.(1)How much sleep do students aged from 10 to 17 need every night?(2)What does the word "insomnia" mean in Paragraph 4?(3)If teenagers don't get enough sleep, they may ____.(4)Which of the following is a good sleeping habit according to the passage?(5)What is the main idea of the passage?12．More than anything else in the world, Lion liked being King of the jungle.He walked around, showing off his power and pride.Each day Lion took a long lazy sleep under the shade of his favourite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing (鞠躬) before him.One day Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped over Lion's huge paws. Lion woke up with a start."How dare you wake me up!" he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed Mouse with one paw. "On the second thought, I'm in the mood for the snack, and you'll make a delicious meal," he said.Mouse cried out, "King Lion, please spare (饶恕) me! If you let me live, I'll always remember your kindness.And, some day, I might be able to help you.""How could such a powerless little mouse ever help me?" That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go.A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favourite tree when he stepped onto a hunter's net.The net scooped him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn't escape.When Mouse heard Lion's frightened shouts, he raced to help. Mouse quickly chewed (咬) through the ropes to make a hole in the net.Soon, Lion moved out and was free. Lion looked down at the little mouse. "Thank you for saving my life," said Lion, smiling his widest smile. "I was mistaken.You are not a powerless little mouse.You are a great friend!"(2)How did Mouse wake up Lion?(3)Why did Lion let Mouse go?(4)What do you think of Mouse?(5)What can we learn from the passage?13．(2分)It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances (机会) to choose a good job while people with little or no education don't. It seems that the purpose (目的) of education is to make people get jobs. But not all the people agree with this idea.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education so they will be able to make more money in the future. This was probably one of the earliest purposes of education. In fact, if education is just a way to make a living, people don't need to spend so much time in school. They can get education for a living in a short time. Not everyone needs to learn the subjects like history and geography. And people don't have to learn math and languages so carefully. So it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.So what is education for? Education is well-rounded and it should improve a man in many ways. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man live a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all, take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the only reason.(1)The earliest education was probably to ____.(2)What does the underlined word "well-rounded" in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?(3)It is expected that educated people will be able to ____.(4)The passage mainly tells us that ____.14．Even though she's quite young, Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend (传奇). She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg's famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial(1982).However, it wasn't all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She was drinking wine by the time she was 9, smoking marijuana (大麻) at 10.Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they're out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn't.As she was growing older, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie's Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge (挑战) myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone who's not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she's such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine's 100 Most Beautiful People issue.“Life is very interesting … in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.(1)Drew Barrymore made her first movie in____.(2)Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore's life?①She made the film Charlie's Angels.②She is on the cover of People magazine's 100 Most Beautiful People issue.③ She started to drink wine and smoke marifuana.She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg's famous film E.T. the Extra- Terrestrial.15．Zoe Johnson, 16, hasn't been at school for 4 years. "She went to the doctor in 2014 with a bit of a sore throat, and somehow that became very serious." says her mother, Rachel Johnson. Zoe missed a lot of school work but was able to continue with her studies with the help of an online teacher. But "over the years her real-world friendships disappeared (消失) because she's not well enough to see anybody," says Ms. Johnson.For the last three months, though, she has been taking classes with her former classmates using a "telepresence" robot called A VI. The small, cute-looking robot, made by Oslo-based start-up No Isolation, sits in the classroom and sends live streams video and audio (直播视频和音频) back to Zoe's iPad, phone or computer at home. She can speak through the robot and take part in lessons, and also control (控制) where A VI is looking.When she wants to ask a question, the robot's head starts blinking on and off to tell the teacher. And when she's too tired or sick to join in, she can turn A VI's head blue to ask for a leave. "It makes my life a lot more exciting and makes me feel like I haven't been forgotten," Zoe says. With the robot's help, she was able to take five GCSE exams this year. "We're celebrating because she did so much better than we ever hoped," says Ms. Johnson. "Zoe is going on to study A-level History and is looking forward to doing so with her friends, rather than on her own at home".Karen Dolva, the 27-year-old Norwegian co-founder of No Isolation, has a friend working as a nurse in a children's hospital. "These kids are very sad and they can only see their families," her friend says. Karen and her friends at No Isolation all know about engineering and technology. They talk to the children and find out that phones and messaging apps such as Facebook are not enough to address (表达) their feelings of isolation (隔绝). "We get to know the kids need to be present somewhere they aren't," says Karen.But the children also say they feel "more comfortable when they don't have to be on display (展示)". So although A VI can help children like Zoe to see and hear what's going on in the classroom, other children can only hear their voices through the robot's speaker.(1)What's Zoe's problem?(2)How does the robot A VI help Zoe?(3)How does Zoe feel about the robot A VI?(4)From Paragraphs 4＆5, we can learn that____.16．Online shopping has become something very common for young people. However, it's not easy for old people. Therefore,buy-for-you shops are becoming popular among the old.Mr. Li, a 65-year-old man, is crazy about this way of shopping. He says, "I can't use the Internet. After I happened to find abuy-for-you shop, I decided to try. Finally I got what I wanted. I was so happy."The shopkeeper Mu Lan says she started the business of offline buy-for-you in order to help people like Mr. Li. In only about ten days since the start of the business, she has received more than 20 orders from customers. Mu Lan is not the only one who finds the large need of offline buy-for-you business in the market. In her city, over 300 such shops opened their doors only in April.In order to attract more customers, they have opened their shops in communities. And they charge a suitable service fee. For example, when buying things that cost less than 200 yuan for customers, they usually get 5 yuan as service fee.What if there is any problem with the ordered thing, let's say, like a quality problem? The shopkeepers say they will deal with any quality problems if people use their buy-for-you service.(2)What's the meaning of the word 'charge' in the fourth paragraph?(3)Who will deal with the quality problem if something is wrong with the ordered thing?(4)We can know from the article that ____.。
