Meanwhile, work which requires feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced by AI, such as teaching, nursing and personal training.“Very well, Tom,” replied his mother, “only, be careful, and don’t stay away long!”So, Tom ran off down the field to the river which flowed past his father’s farm in far north Queensland in Australia. It had been raining for ten days. Sometimes the rain fell fast and hard, then light showers would follow. The ground was all wet.“All not countries, such as where we live,” Tom’s father had once told him, “may flood at times. The sun has great power in the tropics to draw up the water from the sea. You know how the vapour rises into the air. The higher the temperature of the air, the greater the amount of moisture（水分）the air can hold. When the air cools, the vapour becomes clouds, or if it is near the earth’s surface, as mist（薄雾）. When the air cools gradually, the rain drops are small and the rain is light. However, when the vapour drops suddenly in temperature, the drops are large and the rain is heavy.”“ In some tropical countries, where the sun is always at work on large bodies of water, a very large amount of vapour collects in the air, and it may take days, or even weeks, to form rain drops and fall. It may then rain for days continually. When this happens, after two or three days, the water falls does not have the time to soak（浸泡）through the soil or be carried off in the streams; so it gathers on the surface, and then we have a flood.”When Tom got to the river, where the crossing was, he found the water rising rapidly. He thought about what his father had taught him about the floods, he decided to go back home at once and tell him the news.1. What did Tom’s father probably do?A. A geography teacher.B. A scientist.C. A farmerD. A doctor2. How long had Tom probably stayed at home?A. Ten days.B. Two days.C. Three days.D. Several days.3. The air can hold a lot of moisture when _______.A. the air cools down suddenlyB. the air cools down graduallyC. the temperature is highD. the temperature is low4. What was the “news” in the last sentence?A. Maybe a terrible flood was coming soon.B. They could start to work on the farm immediately.C. The rain had caused a great loss to their farm.D. He had learned how the flood came into being.5. Tom was a _______ boy according to the passage.A. hardworkingB. generousC. lazyD. cleverB. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage.Do you know something about cats? Do we humans learn something good from them?Cats are animals of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time every day and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep and when to __1__.Cats make up their regular sleep with occasional cat naps. Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Cat naps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to overcome boredom. Since cats have moods __2__ those of humans, some experts believe that people can __3__ their moods and attitudes by catnapping. People might become happier and more positive and they can finish their work more efficiently.A number of famous people have __4__ cats by taking cat naps during the day. The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes.Winston Churchill took cat naps, too. When he was 66 years old, Churchill was appointed Prime Minister of England（被任命为英格兰首相）at the important time by King George VI. England’s army suffered many losses at the beginning of the World War II. Churchill faced a large number of challenges. But with his full energy and his great ability, he led his people to victory. He was a tireless source of strength to his people. Churchill ___5___ told one of his best fiends privately that the reason why he was able to work long hours, ofteninto the deep night, napping was his ___6___.Perhaps more people could learn from cats and take naps to feel better and live longer.1.

Answer the questions.That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in the city I lived. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and the life in this awful place.As I walked down the empty street under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. “Run!” I told myself and began to do so, both to keep warm and keep away from any possible danger.About a clock from my flat, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun, but the street was empty. The noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. I didn’t realize what the noise had been until I reached my flat and unlocked the door. It had been my wallet falling to the street.I wasn’t cold or tired any more. I ran out of the door and back to where I had heard the noise. Although I searched the street for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard a rubbish truck stop next to me. A voice called from the inside, “Lisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? the door opened and a man jumped out. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night. But I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.1. How many jobs did the writer do in the city she lived?2. How did the writer keep herself warm and safe in the street?3. Why did the writer feel nervous when she heard a sound behind her?4. When did the writer realize that the sound had been her wallet falling to the street?5. Who found the wallet for the writer?6. What did the writer think of city life at the end of the story? Why?Ⅶ.
