In July, last year, I couldn't believe the news that I was 2 to enter the only key high school in my hometown. Then I rushed to my home and told my parents. But my father didn't seem as 3 as I was. He just kept smoking without saying a word and my mother put her head down and couldn't help 4

13、Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to connect the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two scientists, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytehnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, show a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“Our brain has billions of body cells(细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the body part to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries(脊柱受伤) or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outer world and also to control machines.”
The scientists designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer finds meanings of the signals and commands the wheelchair with an engine. The wheelchair also has two cameras that tell objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan , the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that finds meanings of brain signals and turns them into simple commands.” The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two kinds: communicati on, and controlling objects. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can get advantages from. And the other is sure that they can use the technology for long.
1．BCI is a technology that can________.
A．help to make computer systems more modern
B．connect the human brain with computers
C．help the disabled to be healthier
D．control a person’s thoughts
2．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair
B．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair
D．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
3．The team will test with real patients to_________.
A．make money from them
B．prove the technology useful to them
C．make them live longer
D．learn about their physical condition
4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Switzerland, the BCI research Center
B．New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Sickness

14、My mother used to say things just to make me mad. Like most teenagers, I thought I knew everything. And what I didn’t know, I didn’t want to be told. For example, if I said I was going to a movie, my mother would roll her eyes. On my way out, she’d shout, “______________________________You don’t want to learn that the hard way!” I didn’t know what that meant. I thought she just wanted me to stay at home.
Many years later I had three teenagers of my own. They thought they knew everything. I would say the same things to them like my mom. That’s when I first saw it. My mother wasn’t trying to help me.
Why do we always have to learn things “the hard way”? Why can’t we just accept our elders’ wisdom? It’s a good lesson for anyone. Clearly, I still haven’t learned it.
Yesterday, I stepped out of the shower when I heard my cell phone ringing in the kitchen. Grabbing a towel, I ran through the house. I grabbed the phone and hit my left foot against the table. The X-ray showed that I’d broken two toes.
We all need to slow ourselves down once in a while, before something bad does it for us. My mother was right about a lot of
things. I wish I could have told her.
1．The writer felt ______ when mother used to say things.
A．happy B．nervous C．angry D．Surprised
2．The underlined sentence means_________
A．The writer knew everything.
B．The writer should stay at home.
C．Mother wasn’t trying to help the writer.
D．We all need to slow ourselves down before something bad.
3．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Mothers know everything in their lives.
B．Listening to elders’ suggestions can help us.
C．The writer’s mother had three children.
D．Achieving a goal helps you build self-confidence.
4．What's the best title of the passage?
A．An hurt experience
B．Learning the hard way
C．Mother’s words are always right
D．Teenagers should learn from their mothers

15、As a kid，I read a story of a bird. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a house and the female bird takes care of the baby in it. When the baby bird learns to fly，the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的)：How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?
One night，I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery，I went on，then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around；the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course，it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”，and now I felt it and was attracted deeply.
When I woke up from the dream，I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later，when I chose my career，I thought of the story of the bird and my dream，then I was sure what to do. I
decided to choose architectureas my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did，to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. My dream comes true and the happiness that I gain now from this career is great.
1．When the writer read the story of the bird，he felt _______.
A．bored B．confused C．amazed D．worried
2．In the writer's dream，what part of the house attracted him most?
A．The sloping roof of the house.
B．The body of water that keeps the house cool.
C．The large central open yard.
D．The liveliness that he felt around the house.
3．The underlined word “architecture” in Paragraph 3 means _______ in Chinese.
A．考古B．天文C．建筑D．艺术
4．The passage is mainly about _______.
A．how the bird could give up their house easily
B．how the writer finally becomes an honest citizen
C．what we need to do when we choose our career
D．why the writer chooses architecture as his career
D
16、Gordon, the “barista”(咖啡师）at San Francisco’s Cafe X, will not greet you by your name or wish you a pleasant day. Why? Because Gordon is not a human but a robot. It can make the perfect cup of coffee using beans and recipes(食谱) from local famous coffee shops. The founder(创始人) of this special coffee shop is Henry Hu. Hu noticed that baristas spent a lot of time moving cups around while making drinks. So he decided to build a fully mechanized(机械化的)coffee shop. And this is why Cafe X was born.
Now, Cafe X is getting more and more popular. Customers can order their drinks by using the computers in Cafe X. What’s more, they can also do that by using an app on the phone. When the order is placed, Gordon gets to work to make coffee. When the drink is ready, the customer receives a message with a code. After entering it correctly, the robot will hand over the coffee. People say another reason why they prefer Cafe X is that they can get their drinks in a shorter time, about eight minutes. If the drink is not picked up within eight minutes after the message is sent, it is replaced with a fresh drink. Henry Hu says Cafe X is trying its best to provide customers with the greatest coffee in the shortest time.
Henry is not the only person who makes robots work for humans. In San Francisco, the robots help create bowls, too. While at another restaurant Zume Pizza, the robots are used to make pies.
1．According to the passage, Gordon won’t greet people because ________.
A．it is too busy B．it hates doing that
C．it is a robot D．it doesn’t like speaking
2．The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “code” should be ________.
A．软件B．密码C．符号D．文本
3．_______ ways to order drinks are mentioned in the passage.
A．Two B．Three C．Four D．Five
4．From this passage we know that ________.
A．traditional shops are more popular than Cafe X
B．Henry is the only person who makes robots work for humans
C．Gordon spends less time making drinks than traditional baristas
D．at Cafe X, people will wait for ten minutes to get their drinks

17、
It was a hot summer day. A group of ants were working hard. They were carrying food.
Some grasshoppers were playing in the shade of a tree. One of the grasshoppers asked an ant, “Why are you working so hard on such a hot day?”
“Because you cannot find food in winter. We are getting food for winter,” answered the ant.
“It’s so early to find food for winter. You are a fool to work on such a hot day,” he teased (取笑) the ant.
The ant was very angry and shouted at the grasshopper, “Well, go and play! You will have a bad time in winter. ”
Summer was over and winter came. The grasshopper could not find food anywhere. He was both cold and hungry. He went to the ant’s home and knocked at the door.
“Mr. Ant, I’m very cold and hungry. I’m dying. Please let me have something to eat,” he said.

18、Many of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to us too loudly or makes eye contact with us for too long. But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?
It's all about personal space, which means not only the imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated(侵犯)when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume(香水)makes you feel angry.
Whether people have had a stronger desire(渴望)to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire to have space to themselves. In a survey by Trip Advisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.
Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.
Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first .because they are the farthest way. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.
Preference(偏好)for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin(拉丁人的)cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.
1．Who might feel his personal space is safe according to the passage?
A．A person who has to sit next to a lady putting on strong perfume.
B．A person who has been watched by a stranger for a long time.
C．A person who hears strange noises when reading at home.
D．A Latin boy who is chatting with a friend sitting close to him.
2．What can we know from the survey by Trip Advisor?
A．People need smaller personal .pace in recent times than before.
B．People have a wrong desire for personal space in recent times.
C．There are not enough seats on the plane to meet people's needs.
D．Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.
3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.
B．If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space won't be violated.
C．People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.
D．Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space.

19、Dear friends,
Reading is very important in our daily life. But many students don’t have the reading habit. They don’t know what to read. Sometimes there is too much homework to do, so they don’t have time to read. What’s worse, they would rather spend their free time on computer games. I love reading and I’m in the school Reading Club. I got a lot of knowledge through reading. I have read over ten books since last September. I think reading helps open up a whole new world to us. I’m sure reading will be popular as time goes on!
Come on, Everyone! Let’s start reading now!。
