You may probably 21your son to accomplish what you have hoped for, in your footsteps. But footsteps can be muddied and he can go off in22 directions.I've been a newspaperman all my adult life.

However, it can affect the quality of communication between wearers.The wearable electronic device is designed to help improve speech communication in such conditions. The Japanese company Donut Robotics calls its invention the “e-mask”. The device is meant to fit over other kinds of face masks commonly worn by the public.Made of soft plastic material, it contains a built-in microphone and has holes in the front to let air in. When turned on, the mask uses Bluetooth technology to connect to a mobile device. An app then helps users perform several actions, including turning speech into text, completing telephone calls and making the user's voice louder. The device can also translate a person's voice from Japanese into eight other languages.Taisuke, the head of Donut Robotics, told the Reuters, “We worked hard for years to develop a robot and we have used that technology to create a product that responds to how the coronavirus has reshaped society.” He noted that the company raised $265,000 in just the first 37 minutes to develop the smart mask through a campaign on the Japanese crowdfunding service Fundinno. “It would usually take three or four months to get that kind of money,” Taisuke said.The company produced a working model of the mask within a month by using software developed for its other robot products. The mask design was similar to one created years ago by one of the company's engineers that mapped facial muscles to interpret speechTaisuke said the company plans to sell its first 5,000 e-masks starting in September, at about $40 per mask, in an effort to enter a global market that newly appeared.41．W hat's the purpose of the new “smart” mask?A．To help protect people from being struck by COVID-19.B．To help COVID-19 patients communicate with the doctors.C．To make it convenient to communicate with face masks on.D．To translate human thoughts or facial expressions into words.42．How does the e-mask perform its function?A．By connecting to an app on a mobile device.B．By using Bluetooth to make the user's voice clear.C．By turning the wearer's dialect into standard language.D．By being fitted into plastic face masks that people wear.43．How did Taisuke probably feel about the company's fundraising result?A．Somewhat relieved. B．Greatly encouraged.C．Slightly confused. D．Terribly disappointed.BEleven years ago, the world as I knew it ended. My husband of 19 years was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Over the course of seven months, Bill went from beating me silly at tennis to needing my help to go to the bathroom. It was the best seven months of my life.Maybe I don't actually mean that. But it was certainly the time when I felt most alive. I discovered that the minor complaint of an annoying co-worker, or a flat tire pales in comparison with the beauty of sincere laughter, or the smells of a bakery. There were moments of joy; laughter, and tenderness. After Bill's diagnosis and brain surgery, I found clinical trials and talked to doctors in Texas, Pennsylvania, and New York. It gave me a sense of purpose.In the latter days, being Bill's caregiver also meant being fully present for as many moments of every day as possible. During his last weekend, we had dinner together. Later, a relative visited. I noticed that she'd changed her appearance, and not in a good way. It was the kind of thought I'd usually keep to myself. Just then, Bill voiced exactly what I'd been thinking, in that truthful way he had, and I found myself laughing out loud.I thought I could look after this man forever. However, he would be dead in four days.Eleven years later, I haven't started a foundation to cure cancer. I haven't left the news business to get a medical degree. But every day, I try to again be the person I became during those seven months. I try to be a little less judgmental, a little more forgiving and generous. I am a better person for having been Bill's caregiver. It was his last, best gift to me. 44．What is true about her husband?A．He was a poor tennis player.B．He had to talk to doctors in different cities.C．His brain didn't function well because of the surgery.D．He had to be accompanied mostly during his illness.45．What does the underlined word “pales” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Proves unavoidable. B．Seems less important.C．Turns whiter than usual. D．Becomes more significant.46．What is the best title of the passage?A．A Caregiver's Hard Work B．My Loving HusbandC．The Best Time of My Life D．The Greatest Gift to MeCA pair of earth scientists at the Indian Institute of Technology-Kanpu are calling for flood prevention and warning systems in areas around the Himalayan mountains to protect people from floods or to warn them of the potential disasters. In their Perspectives piece published in the journal Science, Tanuj Shukla and Indra Sen point out that rising temperatures due to global warming are leading to an increase in flood danger for people who live in the area.As Shukla and Sen note, the Himalayas hold the most ice anywhere on the planet outside of the polar regions-snow-covered mountains and glaciers hold on to massive amounts of water. In the past, as snow and ice have melted in the warmer months, mountain lakes have formed with natural dams holding them in place. But previous research has shown that increases in the amount of water buildup in such lakes and melting of the ice in the rocky material that makes up natural dams can lead to massive floods. Just eight years ago, they note, melting ice in northern India led to an avalanche (雪崩)that pushed the natural dams past its breaking point. The water rushing down the mountain, carrying with it large rocks, trees and other debris, wound up killing over 5,000 people. Such events are common enough to have been given a name-glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). They can also be caused by extreme rain events during Monsoon season, which, due to global warming, are happening more often.Shukla and Sen point out that as the planet grows warmer, more GLOFs are certain to occur. But they also note that the same outcomes are not inevitable. They suggest that the construction of reservoirs to hold extra rain, structures to change the course of water, detention basins along with embankments (堤岸)could prevent such flooding. They also suggest improvements in technology could help-upgrading cell service in the region, for example, would allow people upstream to call and warn those living downstream. They also suggest building a satellite network that could be used to monitor troublesome areas. Taken together, such technology could form the basis of an early warning system. Without such action, they warn millions of people could lose their lives in the coming years.47．Why is the Indian avalanche mentioned in the second paragraph?A．To describe a disaster.B．To provide an example.C．To make a comparison.D．To introduce a new concept.48．Which of the following would Shukla and Sen probably agree with?A．Extreme rain events destroy natural dams.B．The Himalayas hold the most ice on the planet.C．Technology can be important to the warning system.D．Nothing can be done to prevent the disastrous outcomes.49．What is the main idea of the text?A．Global warming will make GLOFs more common.B．There is an increase in flood danger around Himalayan mountains.C．Immediate action should be taken to protect people in troublesome areas.D．Prevention and warning systems are essential for Himalayan flooding events.。

I become very unhappy 3 I could make a lot of money. I no longer felt proud of my job and even 4 myself for doing things like that. So I 5 my job and took another job, this time helping people 6 the poor and the week. The sense of belonging was great and suddenly I felt successful in my life again, I made less money but I was 7 with myself.For my own past, success comes from the feeling of satisfaction and joy.

But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车) full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.Now you’re inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or twoproducts inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers is easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It’s so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it’s better to shop when it’s quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate(故意), to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.1.Supermarkets don’t provide baskets because ______.A. supermarkets don’t usually have manyB. baskets are too small to hold many productsC. it’s easy to go shopping with trolleysD. a trolley can hold one or two products inside2.According to the passage, supermarkets put red stickers on products to ______.A. make them look more beautifulB. make them different from cheaper onesC. make people think the stickers are for menD. make people think they could save money3.According to the passage, toys for children are usually placed ______.A. on higher shelvesB. on each shelfC. on lower shelvesD. on the back shelves4.It can be learned from Paragraph 6 that supermarkets usually ______.A. stop people lining up at the checkoutsB. close on Monday morningC. play loud and noisy music insideD. make customers feel relaxed5.The passage is mainly about _____.A. several ways supermarkets use to sell more productsB. some advice when people go shopping on the streetC. several rules that every business should followD. some advertisements that make people buy more【阅读表达】I love to write!

How wonderful it is to be a hero, just like Yang Liwei or Jackie Chan!However, this is the reason why they feel bad — they think they are not brave enough. They don’t have the courage to talk to new friends, do the things they like, or even answer their teachers’ questions because they’re afraid people will laugh at them.It’s very natural for young people to be shy, especially in China, where kids are often told to be obedient. When I was young I was also shy. But after some effort I became as brave as my friends. I joined a sports team and made some friends. We played basketball, watched movies, and went swimming on hot summer days. A few years later when I went to college in New York City, I felt self-confident, like a hero!If you are too shy, go to your classmates or friends to talk about your life. If you don’t like talking, try expressing yourself by painting, dancing, writing, playing a musical instrument or playing a sport. Remem ber, if you’re talking to new friends confidently, you are a hero!1 Why aren’t some middle school students brave enough to answer their teachers’ questions?____________________________________________________________2 How did the writer become as brave as his friends?____________________________________________________________3 How did the writer feel when he went to college?____________________________________________________________4 What should you do if you don’t like talking according to the passage?____________________________________________________________5 Choose the correct translation of the word “obedient”.A. 顺从的B. 懦弱的C. 内向的D. 胆小的参考答案一、阅读理解1. C 根据文章第一段第一句“Elton Hercules John was a great singer and pianist”可知答案。

As one of the most famous writers, he was widely regarded as “a giant of 20th-century literature”. Garcia Marquez wrote in a style called “magical realism (魔幻现实主义)”. In such works, people live a daily life in a certain period of time in history. But meanwhile, magical things happen to them.Garcia Marquez is best known for his 1967 novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude(《百年孤独》）,which has sold a- bout 50 million copies. It tells the tale of the small and isolated town of Macondo which was separated from the outside world—of its founding and its troubled history over a hundred years. The story is a metaphor(暗喻）for the development of Colombia since the 19th century.

初三英语阅读组合训练（六）初三英语阅读组合训练（六）On a Saturday morning, my left arm went numb(麻木的), and I felt dizzy. I was taken to hospital. After a quick 41 , the doctor said I had a stroke. As waves of paralysis(瘫痪) came over me, I slowly lost 42 of my body. I was just 50 and I c ouldn’t believe it.After two operations, I was transferred to the Recovery Center（恢复中心）. Though I had lost the use of my 43 arm and leg and couldn’t see out of my left eye, the only thought on my mind was to return to my job. But in fact I needed to relearn how to 44 and see first and this just made me feel like it was 45 to become well again.A few days after my first discouraging physical therapy(治疗) session, my mother came into my room with a neatly-typed 46 written by a nine-year-old boy named Jackson. He told me about the stroke he’d had only a year earlier. He, too, had been paralyzed on his left side. But, beyond telling me what he had lost, Jackson shared what I would 47 . “Do not give up on yourself. All the hard work is worth it.” he wrote.And the advice kept on coming. He told me to 48 the therapy on the hospital’s “grown-up” floor, where “they make you work hard and you get lots of things back fast.” Here I was, a grown man and a senator(参议员) of Illinois, getting 49 from a young boy I had 50 met.After a few weeks of writing letters to each other, I arranged for us to meet. He seemed 51 at first, but the embarrassing situation quickly melted away. Jackson showed me how he could run, and I immediately felt encouraged. One thing I particularly52 was the energy and dignity radiating from him.As for my recovery, it 53 just as Jackson said it would. After a year of intense physical therapy, I climbed to the top of the Capitol and returned to work. With every step I took, I thought of Jackson and his courage and confidence.

Chai Jing, a former news interviewer with CCTV, discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome.The 103-minute film was on websites on Feb 28. In the film, Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists. She thinks that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog.To solve the problem, Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace them with cleaner energy such as natural gas.In her film, Chai also emphasized (强调) that everyone can do something to help control smog too. For example, we can live a greener life by using more public transport. Or if we see things that could harm the environment, we can try to stop it. In the film, when she sees a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities (过滤设备), she calls the hotline 12369. The restaurant installed the filter a week later.Chen Jining, the new minister of environ mental protection, praised Chai. “This film encourages ordinary people to take notice of the environme nt.

中学英语组合训练1. 阅读理解+语法填空：(1) As a teenager, it is important to develop good study habits. One of the best ways to do this is to create a study schedule. By setting aside specific times each day for studying, you can ensure that you stay on track with your schoolwork. Additionally, having a set schedule helps to eliminate procrastination and ensures that you are consistently making progress. In order to create a study schedule, you should start by assessing your daily routine and determining when you have free time. Next, allocate blocks of time for studying based on the subjects you need to focus on most. Be sure to include breaks in your schedule to avoid burnout. With a well-planned study schedule, you will find that studying becomes a more manageable and effective task.(2) Have you ever wondered why some people can easily pick up new languages while others struggle? The answer may lie in their learning methods. While traditional language learning methods focus heavily on grammar and vocabulary memorization, research has shown that the most effective way to learn a language is through immersion. Immersion involves surrounding yourself with the language you are trying to learn, whether it be through watching movies or TV shows, reading books orarticles, or even speaking with native speakers. This method allows your brain to naturally absorb the language and develop a sense of familiarity with it. By immersing yourself in the language, you are not only improving your speaking and listening skills, but also gaining a deeper understanding of the culture and context behind the language. So, if you want to become fluent in a new language, ditch the textbooks and immerse yourself in the language instead!Language Focus: Tenses and Verb Agreement(1) The __________(create) of a study schedule can greatly improve one's study habits.

I had a cowboy hat and cowboy boots. My brothers were two and four years older than I. We often played games together.Once, my brothers and I fell in love with playing a game called “stealing horses”. Then my parents decided to buy my brothers guns. These were not “real” guns. Because I was a girl, I didn’t get a gun. They shot and shot at everything with their new guns. I tried to “fight”them with my bow and arrows (弓和箭). But I was still in the poor position without a gun.One day while I was hiding behind a wall, looking out toward the fields, I felt a terrible blow to my right eye. I looked up just in time tosee my brother lower his gun. Both brothers rushed to my side. My eye felt great pain and I covered it with my hand. “If you tell that to Mummy,” they said, “We will get a whipping(鞭打) from Daddy. You don’t want that to happen, do you?”I did not. “Here is a piece of wire(电线),”said the older brother, picking it up from the floor, “Say you stepped on one end of it and the other flew up and hit you.”“Yes,” I said. To be honest, I didn’t want them to be punished. So I did as my brothers told me to do.A week after the “accident” my parents took me to see a doctor. Finally I knew my brothers were worried about my eye, so they told our parents what had happened and asked them to take me to see a doctor.1.According to the passage, the two brothers were .A. strictB. cleverC. politeD. naughty(淘气的)2.What does the underlined(划线的)phrase “in the poor position” mean in Chinese?A. 处于劣势B. 在低洼处C. 处于虚弱状态D. 处于贫穷状态3.The two brothers asked the writer to tell a lie because they were afraid .A. they would lose their gunsB. their parents would punish themC. they couldn’t play the game any moreD. their parents would take their sister to seea doctor4.Choose the correct order according to the passage.①The writer was hurt. ②The brothers told the truth.③The parents bought guns for the brothers.④The parents took the writer to see a doctor.A. ②③①④B.③①②④C. ③①④② D. ③②①④5.What can we infer(推断) from the passage?A. The writer’s parents didn’t like herB. The writer and her two brothers loved each otherC. The writer’s brothers wanted to hurt herD. The two brothers didn’t get on well with each otherB“Growing up, Einstein saw his father struggleto support the family and move the family for different jobs, Einstein had to move between schools and it was challenging for him to catch up with his new class.”This story about the struggles(f +)of famous scientists can't be found in your science textbook, but a new study suggested maybe it should be.In the study, 402 9th- and 10th-grade students from four New York City high schools in low-income areas were divided into three groups. The students read some 800-word stories about Albert Einstein and Marie Curie. The control group read a regular science textbook description about their great achievements. Another group read about the scientists' personal struggles, like Einstein's running away from Nazi Germany. The third group read about the scientists' intellectual struggles, as they tried different experiments--- and failed.As it turned out. the students who had read about scientists' struggles, whether personal or intellectual, had higher grades than studentswho had read about achievements. Those who weren’t getting good grades to begin with gained the most. Those in the control group not only didn't see a grade increase, they had lower grades than the grading before the study began. “We think that struggle stories showed scientists' weaknesses.” the researchers write,“which creates a sense of connection between the students and scientists. And that may make it easier for students to see them as role models.”“When kids think Einstein is a talent who is untouchable, then they believe they will never get there, "said lead researcher Xiaodong Lin-Siegler, PhD.If we want to educate a future generation of great scientists, we can start by changing the way we talk about the great scientists of the past. An 800-word story about scientists’ failures, not just their achievements, in science textbooks will make it happen.6. What does the article mainly talk about?A. Learning about struggles of scientists mayhelp students succeed in science.B. Reading stories of scientists' achievements will help educate future scientists.C. Science textbooks should describe scientists failures instead of their achievements.D. Stories of scientists' struggles may make students see scientists as being untouchable.7. From Paragraph 4, we can know that .A. those good at science achieved most from this exerciseB. the control group had lower grades than the other two groupsC. the students' grades in the control group remained the sameD. the students in the third group had the highest grades8. What's the main idea for Paragraphs 5 and 6?A. Findings of the studyB. Explanations from the researchersC. Process of the studD. Suggestions from the researchers9. In the study, which of the following would thethird group probably read?A. Einstein won many awards in his life, including the 1921 Nobel Prize in physics.B. Going to college was hard for Curie because at that time women were not allowed to attend school. So, Curie had to study at secret classes.C. By the time she reached college, Curie was able to understand five languages that top scientists spoke at that time.D. Often working hour after hour and day after day. Curie devoted herself to solving challenging problems and learning from her mistakes.【阅读表达】Life offers so many lessons，both practical and personal，that you're never too young to begin learning them. Here are some skills to learn as soon as possible.Money ManagementWhen you start receiving money of your own，it’s time to start understanding yourrelationship with money. In a world where you can buy any and every object，the key is to save money by buying only essentials(必需品)and a treat sometimes.CookingOne great way to save money is to learn to cook for yourself. Beyond that，cooking at home also helps you control your diet for better health. If you start doing this at an early age ,you will not have to depend on your parents too much. Keeping PromisesPromises are a matter of honesty and should be made with care. We must learn from an early age that our word must be followed up by action. When it isn't，others will quickly lose trust in us and not respect us .Accepting Rejection(拒绝)Though you must be careful not to break your word，others' promises aren't always kept. Learn about it early，and you won't be hurt easily. Also, not every job application or desired(渴望的)friendship will work out, soremember that there are more fish in the sea. Lifelong LearningNo matter how old you get，there will always be things beyond your understanding. It's better to learn to be modest now rather than take a proud fall later in life. Be open to new experiences and keep learning. And it’s never too late to start.1.How many skills are talked about in the passage?2.Which two skills can help you save money?3. If one of your friends breaks his promise to you，will you be angry?

初三英语阅读组合训练（六）On a Saturday morning, my left arm went numb(麻木的), and I felt dizzy. I was taken to hospital. After a quick 41 , the doctor said I had a stroke. As waves of paralysis(瘫痪) came over me, I slowly lost 42 of my body. I was just 50 and I c ouldn’t believe it.After two operations, I was transferred to the Recovery Center（恢复中心）. Though I had lost the use of my 43 arm and leg and couldn’t see out of my left eye, the only thought on my mind was to return to my job. But in fact I needed to relearn how to 44 and see first and this just made me feel like it was 45 to become well again.A few days after my first discouraging physical therapy(治疗) session, my mother came into my room with a neatly-typed 46 written by a nine-year-old boy named Jackson. He told me about the stroke he’d had only a year earlier. He, too, had been paralyzed on his left side. But, beyond telling me what he had lost, Jackson shared what I would 47 . “Do not give up on yourself. All the hard work is worth it.” he wrote.And the advice kept on coming. He told me to 48 the therapy on the hospital’s “grown-up” floor, where “they make you work hard and you get lots of things back fast.” Here I was, a grown man and a senator(参议员) of Illinois, getting 49 from a young boy I had 50 met.After a few weeks of writing letters to each other, I arranged for us to meet.

Chai Jing, a former news interviewer with CCTV, discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome.The 103-minute film was on websites on Feb 28. In the film, Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists. She thinks that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog.To solve the problem, Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace them with cleaner energy such as natural gas.In her film, Chai also emphasized (强调) that everyone can do something to help control smog too. For example, we can live a greener life by using more public transport. Or if we see things that could harm the environment, we can try to stop it. In the film, when she sees a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities (过滤设备), she calls the hotline 12369. The restaurant installed the filter a week later.Chen Jining, the new minister of environ mental protection, praised Chai. “This film encourages ordinary people to take notice of the environment.
