21．（6分）While weather forecasters can make fairly accurate predictions, there's always the risk you'll be caught out while driving in the rain. But the days of having to quickly close your sunroof could soon be a thing of the past thanks to Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology.The firm is developing cars that can adapt automatically by closing windows and roofs or starting the heater if they detect bad weather is on the way. The weather forecasting system uses a set of air pressure, humidity（湿度）and light sensors（传感器）to help its vehicles predict changes in conditions and adapt to them. Cars equipped with the system could make slight changes to the air conditioning if it finds the weather is getting warmer during a journey or increase the cabin temperature if it will get colder.
The forecast may indicate there is a possibility of one or more weather conditions, such as rain, within a period of time, such as five minutes. The vehicle may then adapt to the local weather conditions. In particular, it may close one or more windows, or close a roof of the vehicle in response to a forecast being a sign of rain. Similarly windows could be darkened using electrochromic (电致变色的) glass to improve visibility if bright sunshine is forecast.
Although its unclear whether this technology will make its way to a production vehicle anytime soon, such a system would be advantageous on autonomous vehicles. Since there's no human driver present, the system will allow the vehicle to make it comfortable for its passengers, based on current weather conditions. It can also make the vehicle safer if it knows rain or snow is coming.
1、How will Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology benefit drivers?
A．Vehicles can automatically drive themselves.
B．Vehicles can find positions and routes themselves,
C．Vehicles can act as mobile weather forecasting stations.
D．Vehicles can open windows and sunroofs automatically.
2、What is the feature of the glass of a vehicle with the new technology?
A．It can help adjust the temperature.
B．It can still be clear in rainy days.
C．It is too strong to break into pieces.
D．Its colour can change with the sunshine.
3、What can we know about the weather forecasting system from the text?
A．It is intellige nt enough to stop raining.
B．It makes the driver more comfortable.
C．It can't predict the weather accurately.
D．It makes autonomous cars safer in bad weather.
4、Where might the text be taken from?
A．A book review. B．A science report.
C．A science fiction. D．A travel brochure.

23．（8分）Jobs quickly became bored with college. He liked being at Reed, just not taking the required classes. In fact, he was surprised when he found out that there were strict course requirements. When Wozniak came to visit, Jobs waved his schedule at him and complained, “They are making me take all these courses.” Wozniak replied, “Yes, that’s what they do in college.” Jobs refused to go to the classes he was assigned and instead went to the ones he wanted, such as a dance class where he could enjoy both the creativity and the chance to meet girls. “I would never have refused to take the courses you were supposed to, that’s a difference in our personality.” said Wozniak surprisedly and ad miringly.
Jobs also began to feel guilty about spending so much of his parents’ money on an education that did not seem worthwhile. “All of my working-class parents’ savings were being spent on my college tuition (学费).” he detailed his experience in a famous ceremony address at Stanford. “I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out okay."
He didn’t actually want to leave Reed；he just wanted to quit paying tuition and taking classes that didn’t interest him. Surprisingly, Reed tolerated that. “He had a very inquiring mind that was enormously attractive,” said the dean of students, Jack Dudman. “He refused to accept automatically received truths, and he wanted to examine everything himself.” Dudman allowed Jobs to audit classes and stay with friends in the dorms even after he stopped paying tuition.
“The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting,” he said. Among them was a calligraphy (书法) class that appealed to him after he saw posters on campus that were be autifully drawn. “I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces (字体), about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically fine in a way that science c an’t capture, and I found it fascinating.”
It was yet another example of Jobs consciously positioning himself at the intersection (相交点) of the arts and technology. In all of his products, technology would be married to great design, elegance, human touches, and even romance. “If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had so many typefaces. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it’s likely that no personal computer would have them.”
Meanwhile Jobs had a hard time at Reed. He went barefoot most of the time, wearing sandals when it snowed. Elizabeth Holmes made meals for him, trying to keep up with his obsessive diets. He returned soda bottles for spare change, continued his long hard journeys to the free Sunday dinners at the Hare Krishna temple, and wore a down jacket in the heatless garage apartment he rented for $20 a month. When he needed money, he found work at the psychology department lab maintaining the electronic equipment that was used for animal behaviour experiments. Occasionally Chrisann Brennan would come to visit. Their relationship developed abnormally. But mostly he tended to the beginning of his own soul and personal goal for enlightenment (开明).
“I came of age at a magical time,” he reflected later, “Our consciousness was raised by Zen, and also by LSD．” Even later in life he would credit certain drugs for making him more enlightened. “Taking LSD was a valuable experience, one of the most important things in my life. LSD shows you that there’s another side to the coin, and you can’t remember it when it wears off, but you know it. It heightened my sense of what was important—creating wonderful things instead of making money, putting
things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as muc h as I could. ”
1、Jobs and Wozniak differed in ________.
A．approach to freedom B．appetite for knowledge
C．attitude to requirements D．affection for college life
2、One factor in Jobs’ decision to leave college is that ________.
A．his family was in absolute poverty
B．he wanted to be independent of his parents
C．he wouldn’t have his parents’ money wasted
D．the college couldn’t prepare him for his set goal
3、From Jack Dudman’s statement we can see that Jobs was ________.
A．rather difficult to get along with
B．quite good at solving problems
C．too stubborn to change his mind
D．very serious about existing beliefs
4、The underlined word “audit” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.
A．attend informally B．miss occasionally
C．give successfully D．conduct irregularly
5、Jobs worked on typefaces while suffering from a hard life ________.
A．to prove his value to the whole world
B．to bring something great into existence
C．to make himself wealthy for a better life
D．to show college was unimportant to him
6、Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?
A．Stay Out B．Drop Out C．Hold Out D．Work Out
24．（8分）My motivation for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours. My three children had been addicted to this cassette on our previous summer’s road trip.
As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book Jim Trelease’s The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and wrestled in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.
We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pass more quickly. Sometimes the books we read became highlights of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monkeys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring (恢复) electricity after a tropical storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation, “The book you read in the car.”
Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I'm beginning to see that reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shut in our own electronic worlds. And maybe we’ve started something that will pass on to the next generation.
1、Why did the author start reading in the car?
A．She wanted to have a better journey. B．She wanted to keep a family tradition
C．Her children were addicted to music. D．She wanted to kill the time.
2、How did the children react after the author read a few lines?
A．They kept quarrelling. B．They hid themselves.
C．They soon settled down. D．They continued to fight in their seats.
3、What can we learn about the author and her family’s trip to the beach?
A．They were caught in a storm. B．They enjoyed reading on the road.
C．They had a good time on the beach. D．They thought it had passed too quickly.
4、Which can be the best title for the text?
A．Better Reading than Traveling B．Books that Changed My Children
C．Road Trips Full of Challenges D．Reading Makes Great Road Trips
25．（10分）A few years ago, Darla Hoff painted a pumpkin face onto a round straw bale(捆)at A1 and Karen Goldman's farm in Idaho Palls to advertise her U-pick pumpkin field. While Darla has stopped growing pumpkins, the annual tradition of straw bale art lives on at the farm and has drawn friends and neighbors to participate in it. Past creations have included an owl, Minions, tractors and a teddy bear.
To make the tractors, A1 baled round straw bales in two different sizes smaller ones for the tractor's front tires and larger ones for the rear(尾部). Large square bales made up the bodies. Jerry Kienlen used his farming equipment to arrange the bales in the shape of two tractors. Then it was time to bring the tractors to life. Karen and her daughter. Lana Hedrick, secured some green paint, and A1 got some red paint. Darla's husband, James, sprayed the creation with a paint gun. For the finishing touches, Steven donated two shiny exhaust stacks (排气管),and A1 and Karen donated two steering wheels from their farm parts.
The farm's annual straw bale art projects have now become a way for everyone to celebrate the end of another growing season. It's just something fun to do together after harvest. This neighborhood has always been close. Generations of these families have grown crops in this soil. Raised on the farms where they live now, they grew up together as their elders did before. A1 and Karen are truly super neighbors. Every year they also grow about two acres of corn to give away. Anyone can pick some, or A1 and Karen will even deliver. And during long Idaho winters, everyone gathers at the farm to enjoy fresh coffee and cookies.
This year's straw hale creation theme is Straw Wars. And all eyes will be on A1 and Karen's farm as their creation takes shape.

29、Dear Peter,
I am writing to invite you to participate in an interesting activity. On April 21, an old craftsman will be invited to our class to teach us about Chinese paper-cut art, which is a traditional folk art form with a long history. It will start from 8 a. m. to 10 a. m. Now that you always have a great passion for Chinese culture, I am sure you don’t want to miss the chance. The craftsman will explain some basic knowledge of paper-cut art, teach us the basic steps and skills of it and glide us to finish our own works.
Please let me know whether you will come. I am looking forward to your reply!
Yours, Li Hua。
