All you would have to do is to put them on and push a button. Well, this idea is becoming a real reality. The shoe company Nike created the self-tying shoe! This idea first came from the movie Back to the Future II, Nike has been working for years to create a shoe that can do this in real life. They have finally done it with Nike HyperAdapt 1.0.So how do they work? According to Nike, the shoe is “powered by an underfoot-lacing mechanism (脚下系带装置)”. This is kind of like a small motor (发动机) that has the power to lace the shoes. All the wearer has to do is to put them on, and at first, the shoes are very loose (松的). But then you can push the “+” button (按钮), and the shoes will tighten to be the perfect fit for the wearer. To take them off, all you have to do is to push the “－” button, and the shoes will be easily off.They haven’t been released to the public yet, and the cost of the shoes is still unknown. But you might be able to get a pair of your own closer to the holiday season this year.31. The best title to describe the main idea of the passage is ________.A.

She loudly says the right answer but hears so mebody call her a “know-it-all” and sees someone else roll (滚动) his eyes. She doesn’t feel comfortable enough to speak up again because confident women are thought to be “bossy (专横的)”.The stereotype (成见) that confident men are leaders and confident women are bossy gave rise to the 2014 “Ban Bossy” campaign (“禁用专横”运动). This campaign encourages young girls to become leaders and stay confident in the face of being called “bossy”.Laila Farah, from DePaul University, US, says she believes this stereotype comes from history. “There is an old idea that g irls are not as clever as boys,” Farah says. “There is also another very old idea that women act according to their feelings.”“Ge nder (性别) stereotypes come from everywhere,” Farah says. “It is learned when people nearly were babies, from the toys chosen, to saying girls aren’t good at math.”In a study done by the Girls Leadership Institute, many girls said that the biggest thing holding them back from taking part in class was getting judged (评判). Girls learn to keep their ideas and leadership skills to themselves.Maybe instead of never using the word bossy, we need to forget the idea that being bossy is a bad thing. At the end of the day, bossy people get the job done.36. Which of the following shows the gender stereotypes from someone in class?A. Speaking up again.B. Rolling one’s eyes.C. Raising one’s handD. Answering the question.37. The 2014 “Ban Bossy” campaign was held to encourage young girls to ________.A. believe in themselvesB. try knowing everythingC. think about themselvesD. enjoy something comfortable38. In Farah’s opinion, gender stereotypes started ________.A. before girls learnt mathB. before girls went to schoolC. when people were babiesD. when people played with toys39. According to the study done by the Girls Leadership Institute, girls ________.A. can be really good leadersB. can understand the biggest thingC. are too confident to be leadersD. are easy enough to get judged40. The writer seems to think that gender stereotypes are ________.A. cruelB. unfairC. impossibleD. acceptable36. B37. A38. C39. A40. B(2016辽宁沈阳)四、回答问题(共10小题，每小题2分；满分20分)阅读图文，然后根据内容回答所提问题。
