By the time she went to bed, Lisa had already read one of them.Mom said to Lisa the next day, “I think we need to get you your own library card.” “Wow!” cried Lisa. “I’ve always wanted a library card.”The next day after school, Mom took Lisa to the library to get her a card. The lady at the desk asked Mom to fill out a paper and then asked Lisa to print her name. She then told Lisa how many books she could borrow on her card. Lisa could hardly wait to search the many shelves of books. Lisa loved some books about mysteries best of all. She liked to solve the mystery in her head and see if she was right when she got to the end of the story. Her other favorite books were ones that took her to faraway places.Lisa had three books to return the next day and was excited to take out three more. However, when Lisa got to the library, she didn’t have her card. “Oh no!” Lisa said to the lady at the desk. “I can’t find my library card!” “I’m sorry,” said the lady. “I can’t let you take any books without your card.” Lisa left the library, kind of worried.When Lisa got home, Mom told Lisa that a boy came to the house with her library card. “You were lucky that the boy found your card,”said Mom. “You need to be very careful.” “Having a library card is a big responsibility.” Lisa said, “I think I will keep it in my wallet.” Mom said, “Let’s go back to the library and get those books you wanted.” “Sounds great,”said Lisa.When they got to the library, Mom decided to get some books too. While they were in the library, Mom told Lisa the boy that found her card was sitting at the round table. Lisa went over to him and said, “Thank you for finding my card.” He told Lisa he was glad to help, and they both looked for some mystery books together. Lisa had her books, her card, and a new friend too!4. What did Lisa do after Mom filled out the paper?A. Check out books.B. Use the computer.C. Print her name.D. Watcha movie.5.

The Lost Library CardC. Lisa’s R eading HobbyD. Making a New FriendCIt feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. She’ll talk about my lack(缺少) of bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to(和……相关) science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Her coworker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer. I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I am the type of the person who loved to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of a fame or salary.I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5:00 p.m. or even 6:00 p.m.. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.8. Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?A. T he writer’s dreams.B. T he writer’s future job.C. Dinner plans.D. Wars around the world.9. What can we infer from Paragraph 1 about the writer’s mother?A. T he writer’s mother doesn’t want the writer to major in English.B. T he writer’s mother doesn’t think the writer should be a doctor.C. T he writer’s mother gets along very well with the writer.D. T he writer’s mother doesn’t think working in the scientific field is a good idea.10. What does t he underlined word “bemoans” in Par agraph 2 most probably mean?A. Agrees.B. Shouts.C. Complains.D. Smiles.11. Which of the following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?A. He wants to be like his mother’s co-worker’s son.B. He wants to find a job in his community in the future.C. He doesn’t think his mother’s co-worker’s son is perfect.D. He wants to do something he really likes in the future.DTim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York---he in compu ters, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life’s purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s found ation(基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth t o age five in the singer’s home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire,” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder”.Five years later, now retired and with that brochure(小册子) still on the desk, Timclicked on . The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts(折扣).The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books---reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members (董事)---included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of.”The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”12. What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?A. His health problem.B. His love for teaching.C. The influence of his wife.D. The news from the Web.13. What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?A. Give out brochures.B. Do something similar.C. Write books for childrenD. Retire from being a teacher.14. Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?A. To avoid signing up online.B. To meet Dollywood board members.C. To make sure the books were the newest.D. To see if the books were of good quality.15. What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?A. He needs more money to help the children.B. He wonders why some people are so busy.C. He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.EWhether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish(区分) when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond(回应) more appropriately(合适地) to the user.The Jibo robot, which was planned to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver(给出) general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding(提醒) an elderly family member to take medicine ortaking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential(潜在的) applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robo ts is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to help customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations(推荐) for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction(互动) the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not planned to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “W e have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.16. How are social robots different from household robots?A. They can control their emotions.B. They are more like humans.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.17. What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A. Communicate with you and perform operations.B. Answer your questions and make requests.C. Take your family pictures and deliver milk.D. Obey your orders and remind you to take pills.18. What can Oshbot work as?A. A language teacher.B. A tour guide.C. A shop assistant.D. A private nurse.19. What will social robots do according to the last paragraph?A. They will train employees.B. They will be our workmates.C. They will improve technologies.D. They will take the place of workers.20. What does the passage mainly present?A. A new design idea of household robots.B. Marketing methods for social robots.C. Information on household robots.D. An introduction to social robots. 第二部分英语知识应用第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

He took the job when the previous coach quit and transformed the team’s fortunes.With the help of his assistant Andy Austin, they started training hard in April 2020.Some players had never kicked a football before joining the team, so training them took hours of hard work and patience. After a good few weeks, they got down to training and really started to take it in what the coach wanted. “I insist on doing the basic stuff well and letting the girls decide what they feel they need to work on.” James said.James’ first season was ruined by the pandemic, which forced him and Andy to get creative with training. They organized team-building activities with the girls to help them bond on and off the field. James then spent the sessions they could hold focusing on the basics of football like passing and shooting, bringing the girls up to a good standard.James watched the girls develop over the course of last year, and in September they played their first match of the new season. They won the game, and since then went on an unbeaten run of eight games. The team’s star player, 15-year-old Chelsea, has also impressed the audience individually,becoming the top scorer in the league with incredible 30 goals.James said, “All the effort that the girls, us coaches and parents have put in to get this point has been enormous. If I hadn’t had the Support of Andy helping me every week, this would have been an impossible task. So I’m incredibly grateful to have him on side. All we want is to bring more girls into the game and show that it’s not all about having the best players; it’s about hard work and giving everyone the chance to play.”4．Why did James Henry take over the soccer team?A．Because he wanted to try his fortune.B．Because he wanted to turn things around.C．Because the previous coach recommended him.D．Because he hoped to fulfill his champion dream.5．What did James do to change the situation?A．Pick experienced players.B．Develop players’ patience.C．Lay stress on basic skills.D．Make decisions for the girls.6．What did the team achieve after James was in charge?A．They won the league championship.B．They stood out in James’ first season.C．They scored 30 goals in the season.D．They won regularly and secured promotion.7．What can we learn from the story?A．Talent is the key.B．Joint efforts matter.C．Every dog has his day.D．Time and tide wait for no man.A happy beagle (小猎犬) called Bella loves Amazon boxes. It tears into them while ignoring other delivery boxes. Little Bit, a tortoiseshell cat, is similarly consumed — but by socks. It raids (偷袭) the laundry basket in the middle of the night and also paws through the open suitcases of house guests, who almost always find themselves missing a sock in the morning. Pets do some pretty weird things. But these strange behaviors often make perfect sense to the pets, said scientists who study animal behaviors. “These behaviors are not invented on the spot,” said Carlo Siracusa, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. The pets are doing behaviors that their wild ancestors did, but they’ve changed them a bit to fit their new lives as pets.Dogs can be trained to roll over and play dead. But their ancient instincts from their wolf ancestors are still there. Instincts, or instinctive behaviors, are behaviors that are done withoutthinking. They don’t have to be learned. For example, some dogs will scratch the ground after pooping(排便). But they’re not trying to bury their poop. They want other animals to notice it. “They are depositing smell in those areas,” Siracusa said. “It’s almost like drawing a picture with a big red marker around it,” he added.Cats, on the other hand, almost always bury their waste. “They are covering their tracks,” says Monique Udell, an expert on human-animal interactions who works at Oregon State University. Cats are predators, meaning they hunt other animals for food. But other animals hunt them, too. So they don’t want to be seen-or smelled. Mikel Delgado, the founder of a California-based cat behavior consulting service, said that many other cat behaviors, arise from cats’ wild origins.While dogs share many behaviors inherited (继承) from wolves, they’ve also developed a few of their own. “Puppy dog eyes”, the innocent look that many humans are helpless to resist, is one. Over the time period that they’ve lived with people, dogs have developed certain muscles around their eyes. This helps them make the adorable expressions that win over humans. Like wolves, dogs also like to lick faces. Humans think their pets are kissing them, but they are not. “It’s how wolf puppies get food from their parents’ mouths,” Siracusa said. “It also can be a sign of submission. When a lower-ranking individual approaches a higher-ranking one, it gets down real low and licks the dominant one to say: ‘I’m not a threat to you.’”8．What has been done to introduce the topic in Paragraph 1?A．Telling a story.B．Making a comparison.C．Presenting research results.D．Criticizing pets’ bad behaviors. 9．Which can best replace the word “depositing” in Paragraph 2?A．leaving B．hiding C．removing D．detecting 10．Which statement summarizes the third paragraph?A．Cats are interested in burying their waste.B．Humans like the fact that their pet cats bury their waste.C．Pet cats bury their waste because their wild ancestors did so.D．Cats have changed a lot after becoming pets.11．How do wolves show submission to dominant wolves?A．Wolves run energetically around dominant wolves.B．Wolves show dominant wolves “puppy dog eyes”.C．Wolves beg food from dominant wolves.D．Wolves lick dominant wolves’ faces.A new study suggests that science role-playing may help tighten the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM)education and careers for women simply by improving their identity as scientists.Frustrated by the gender gap in STEM, in which some fields employ at least three times more men than women, Cornell graduate student Reut Shachnai wanted to do something about it. Reut said the idea to help foster young girls’ interest in science came to her during a lecture in a class she was taking on Psychology of Imagination.Reut designed an experiment to test if assuming the role of a successful scientist would improve girls’ persistence in a “sink or float” science game. The game itself was simple yet challenging: a computer screen projected a slide with an object in the center above a pool of water. Kids then had to predict whether the object would sink or float.She studied 240 four -to -seven -year -olds, because this is around the time kids first develop their sense of identity and capabilities. They were divided into two groups. Children in the “story” group learned about the successes and struggles of a gender -matched scientist before playing the game. Boys heard about Isaac Newton and girls were told about Marie Curie. Children in the “pretend” group were told to assume the identity of the scientist they just learned about.All kids played at least one round of the game. No matter what group they were in, girls got the answers right just as often as boys -nearly 70% of the time. Boys, however, didn’t really benefit from the stories or make-believe. Besides, girls pretending to be Dr. Marie persisted twice as long at the sink-or-float game, playing just as much as the boys did.Reut’s teacher Tamar Kushnir said, “Rather than merely hearing about role models, children may benefit from actively performing the type of actions they see role models perform. In other words, taking a few steps in the role model’s shoes, instead of merely observing her walk.”12．Why did Reut design a “sink or float” science game?A．To handle the gender gap in STEM.B．To attach importance to STEM.C．To draw kids’ attention to STEM.D．To compare boys’ and girls’ persistence. 13．What can we infer from the sink-or-float game?A．Kids enjoyed listening to scientists’ stories.B．Boys avoided playing make-believe games.C．Girls performed as well as boys in science.D．Children followed Dr. Marie to explore science.14．What is Tamar Kushnir’s attitude towards kids’ assuming identity as scientists?A．Supportive.B．Doubtful.C．Indifferent.D．Negative. 15．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Girls should get recognition like boys B．A fine example has boundless power for kidsC．Girls can work on more science games D．Make-believe exercises benefit girls in STEM二、七选五Find it hard to get started? Try these suggestions to help you rise and shine — and be effective from morning till night.● Get up earlierSleeping in can be a hard habit to break. Actually, it involves two things — going to bed earlier and getting up earlier. Start off by going to bed 15 minutes before your usual turn-in time and setting your alarm the same number of minutes earlier the next day. 16 .● Have a good stretch in bedBefore you even open your eyes, stretch every extremity (四肢) for 15 seconds. Lift your arm and begin by stretching each finger, next your hand, and then your arm. 17 . End with a neck and back stretch that gets you out of bed. By doing this, you will enhance the flow of blood through your system, providing your tissues with extra oxygen.● 18The fewer choices you have to make, the better. Before going to bed, decide what you’re going to wear, work out which route you’ll take to work and what you’ll pack in your bag.● Consult your morning calendarHang a large whiteboard in your kitchen. On it, write down all you need to know for that particular day, from doctor appointments to what you’re doing with your friends. Check it carefully while you sip your first cup of coffee or tea. 19 .● Get moving20 . But if you can get yourself into the habit, exercising in the morning can give you energy to jump-start your day.A．Plan aheadB．Move on to your toes, feet and legsC．It will help you to structure your dayD．Spend less time choosing things when packingE．Morning exercise can get you refreshed quicklyF．If you’re a night owl, an early morning jog might sound like punishmentG．Gradually reset your sleep cycle until you get to your desired wake-up time三、完形填空Several months ago, a tornado fiercely hit our city without any signs before.

I got my first job at 12 as a waitress. It certainly was tiring but interesting. And when Ⅰ went on to college, it paid for tuition and housing and eventually, a camera.From the moment I picked up a camera, I was attracted. All I wanted to do was take pictures for the university newspaper, the Minnesota Daily. The paper at that time was one of the largest in the state and was produced by young journalists who went on to work at every major magazine in the country. For the final two years, I just wanted to be a photographer. The week I finished college. I was hired by the Worthington Daily Globe.Jim Vance was the top-notch publisher of the Globe. He had very high expectations of all the staff. With little or no instruction from him, 35 writers and photographers were expected to fill the paperwith stories that were important to our readers. It was perfect training for my future career at National Geography.I was the youngest photographer working for National Geography when I arrived in 1978, and I spent at least a decade just trying not to make mistakes. While I was grateful for the opportunity, it was very difficult for me. With each new task came the fear that this was going to be the one where they figured out that I couldn’t do the job. On many tasks, the most challenging part turned out to be the transportation. Over the years, I traveled by horse, cars train, truck and all sorts of old vehicles. I traveled by mule in Mexico, by ship along the Indian Ocean, by fishing boat in the Sea of Galilee. Wherever I traveled in the world, I wanted my pictures to make a real difference in people’s lives.I am deeply grateful for the amazing lessons photography has taught me. I’ve learnt that women really do hold up half the sky; that language isn’t always necessary, but touch usually is; that all people are not alike, but they do mostly have the same hopes, and fears.1. When did the author wish to become a photographer?A．After she graduated from college.B．When she was working as a waitress.C．As soon as she picked up the camera.D．While she was working for the university newspaper.2. How did the author feel when she began working for National Geography?A．Inspired B．Worried. C．Touched. D．Disappointed.3. What has the author learned from photography?A．Transportation is the most challenging in travelling.B．Women and men are not equal in some countries.C．People hold different hopes and ideas towards life.D．People can still understand each other despite language barriers (障碍).4. How is the passage developed?A．By making comparisons. B．By giving examples.C．By time. D．By space.28. The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides a year into 24 solar terms. The Spring Equinox Chinese (春分), as the fourth term of the year starts on March 21 and ends on April 5 this year.The Spring Equinox signals the equal length of the day and night time. On the day of the Spring Equinox, sun is directly above the equator. After the equinox, the sun moves northwards, resulting in gradually longer day time in the Northern Hemisphere and longer night in the Southern Hemisphere. Here are 6 things you may not know about the Spring Equinox.Swallows fly northThe ancient Chinese people divided the fifteen days of the Spring Equinox into three “hou’s,” or five-dayparts. As the old saying goes, swallows fly back to the North in the first hou; thunder cracks the sky in the second hou; lightning occurs frequently in the third hou, which vividly reveals the climate feature during the Spring Equinox.Egg-standing gamesStanding an egg upright is a popular game across the country during the Spring Equinox. It is an old custom that dates back to 4, 000 years ago. People practice this tradition to celebrate the coming of spring. It is believed that if someone can make the egg stand, he will have good luck in the future. Flying kitesSpring Equinox is a good time to fly kites. In ancient times, people did not have good medical resources. So to pray for health, they wrote their medical issues on paper kite. When the kite was in the air, people would cut off the string to let the paper kite float away, symbolizing the flying away of diseases.Later flying kites developed into a popular game of spring. On the Spring Equinox, people write a blessing on the kite, hoping that the gods in the sky would see it.Eating spring vegetablesEating spring vegetables during the Spring Equinox is a commonly practiced custom in many regions of China. ‘Spring vegetables’ refers to seasonal vegetables that differ from place to place. The ancient teachings in the Chinese classic, Huangdi Neijing, suggests that people eat seasonal foods to help preserve health and bring good luck.Sacrifice to the Sun godDuring the Spring Equinox, an old tradition practiced by Beijing locals is offering sacrifices to the Sun god. This tradition is called “Zhonghe Festival”. The “Sun Cake”, a round cake made from wheat and sugar, serves as the main offering.Reward farm cattleThis practice is popular in the southern area of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. As the Spring Equinox comes, farm work starts and both the farmers and the cattle start to become busy. Farmers will reward cattle with sticky rice balls to express their gratefulness. Meanwhile, people will also make sacrifice to birds, to thank them for bringing signals for farm work and to ask them not to eat grains later in the year.1. Which of the following is true about the Spring Equinox?A．It falls on March 20 every year.B．The day time is longer than night time.C．After the Spring Equinox, day time is longer in the Northern Hemisphere.D．Before the Spring Equinox, night time is longer in the Southern Hemisphere.2. People cut off the string of the kite in the hope that________.A．they could have great fun B．the kite will fly freely in the skyC．they could get good medical resources. D．the diseases will fly away with the kites.3. which word can replace the underlined word “issues”?A．Treatments. B．Problems. C．Questions. D．Instruments.4. People do all the things to wish for good luck except__________.A．playing egg-standing games B．flying away kitesC．eating spring vegetables D．rewarding farm cattle29. A child who suffers bullying (霸凌) usually has low self-respect and their ability to learn and be successful at school is greatly lessened. Therefore, bullying must be stopped.The best and most obvious way to stop bullying in schools is for parents to change the way they treat their children at home. Of course, this is much easier said than done and everyone treats their children differently. Bullies, however, come from homes where physical punishment is used and children have been taught that physical violence is the way to handle problems and “get their way”. Bullies usually also come from homes where the parents fight a lot, so they have been modeled on such violence. Parental involvement is often lacking in bullies’ lives and there seems to be little warmth.Early intervention (干预) is truly the best way to stop bullying, but parents of the victims or therapists (治疗师) cannot alter the bully’s home environment. Some things can be done at the school level, however.Most school programs that address bullying use a multi-faceted (多方面的) method to the problem. This usually involves the advice of some sort, either by peers, a school adviser, teachers, or the principal.Hand out questionnaires to all students and teachers and discuss if bullying is occurring. Define exactly what constitutes (构成) bullying at school. The questionnaire is a wonderful tool that allows the school to see how widespread bullying is and what forms it is taking. It is a good way to start to solve the problem.Get the children’s parents involved in a bullying program. If parents of the bullie s and the victims are not aware of what is going on at school, then the whole bullying program will not be effective. Stopping bullying in school takes teamwork and concentrated effort on everyone’s part. Bullying also should be discussed during parent-teacher conferences and PTA meetings. Parental awareness is the key.In the classroom setting, all teachers should work with the students on bullying. Oftentimes even the teacher is being bullied in the classroom and a program should be set up to teach about bullying. Children understand modeling behaviors and role-play and acting out bullying situations is a very effective tool. Have students role-play a bullying situation.1. In the author’s opinion, bullies usually ________.A． have extremely high self-esteem B．don’t know the harm of violenceC． look forward to parental involvement D． experience or witness violence at home2. What does the underlined word “alter” in Paragraph 3 mean?A． Know B． Change C． Remove D． Compare3. It can be learned from Paragr aph 6 that it’s important to _______.A． make a bullying program effective. B． find the key to solving bullying at school C． make parents aware of bullying at school D． let parents know their children are bullies4. What is the passage mainly about?A． How to stop bullying in schools. B． What leads to violence in schools.C． What parents can do to stop bullying. D． How to comfort those who are bullied. 30. Earth Hour is organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature. It's a big event usually at the end of March every year. On this evening, people “go dark”. 1It's true that turning off lights for just one hour saves only a small amount of power. 2 On one level, joining in Earth Hour makes people think about the problem of climate change and what we can do in everyday life to protect nature.But on another level, a large number of people’s acting together sends a powerful message to governments and companies. 3 They begin considering green issues when big decisions.The logo(标识) of Earth Hour is “60+” .The number 60 is for the 60 minutes of Earth Hour. 4 In fact, people who join in Earth Hour say that taking part makes them want to do more for the environment.5 Musicians give concerts by playing acoustic(原声的) instruments instead of electric ones, and using candles instead of electric lights. Celebrity chefs have created special recipes for families to prepare and eat by candlelight. Tree-planting sessions, group walks and runs are also among the options.31. As a writer on an adventure sports magazine, I'd always resist doing the adventurous stuff myself.I preferred to observe others and _________ their experiences to readers. Thus, when I was challenged to _________ a mountain in aid of charity—and to write about it afterwards—I was_________.Then it was a _________ that I had a brilliant coach called Keith, who gave me knowledge about everything from building muscle groups to how to _________ tiredness.

Breathtaking scenery.BWhen Belquer first joined a team to make a better live music experience for deaf and hard-of-hearing people, he was struck by how they had developed more solutions to enjoy concerts. "What they were doing at the time was holding balloons to feel the vibrations（震动）through theirfingers," Belquer said. He thought the team could make something to help hard-of-hearing people enjoy live music even more with the technology now available.Belquer, who is also a musician and theater artist, is now the "Chief Vibration Officer" of Music: Not Impossible, which uses new technology to address social issues like poverty and disability access. His team started by tying different vibrating cell phone motors to bodies, but that didn't quite work. The vibrations were all the same. Eventually, they worked with engineers to develop a light haptic （触觉的）suit with a total of 24 vibrating plates. There are 20 of them tied to a undershirt that fits tightly around the body like a hiking backpack, plus one that ties to each wrist and ankle, When you wear the suit, it's surprising how it feels.The vibrations are mixed by a haptic DJ who controls the location, frequency and intensity of feeling across the suits, just as a music DJ mixes sounds in an artful way. "What we're doing is selecting and mixing what we want and send it to different parts of the body," said the DJ. The haptic suits were just one component of the event. There were American Sign Language interpreters; the music was displayed on a screen on the stage.The suits are the star attraction. Lily Lipman, who has auditory processing disorder, lit up when asked about her experience. "It's cool, because I'm never quite sure if I'm hearing what other people are hearing, so it's amazingto get the music in my body."4. What surprised Belquer about people with hearing problems?A. The attitude they held to life.B. The way they enjoyed music.C. The love they had for balloons.D. The frequency they vibrated fingers.5. Why did the team's initial attempt fail?A. The vibrations lacked variety.B. The vibrations were irregular.C. The motors were the same.D. The motors hardly worked.6. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?A. Displaying music on the stage.B. Selecting proper suits for participants.C. Mixed methods helping people feel the music.D. Interpreters with excellent sign language skills.7. What does Lily Lipman think of the suit?A. It's comforting.B. It's challenging.C. It's satisfying.D. It's disturbing.CA team in Norway recently conducted in-depth research on writing by hand and typing on a keyboard.The team invited 36 university students who had to either write or type words displayed on a screen. The study participants used a digital pen to write in cursive （草书）on a touchscreen, and they used one finger on a keyboard to type. The researchers used a special cap with 256 sensors. This cap was worn by the students, and their brain activity was recorded for five seconds each time they were asked to write or type."We show that when writing by hand, brain connectivity patterns are far more complex than when typewriting on a keyboard," says Professor Audrey van der Meer, the team leader. "Such widespread brain connectivity is known to be important for memory formation and for encoding （编码）new information and, therefore, is beneficial for learning." The researchers also note that even though the participants used digital pens for writing in the study, they believe the findings would be similar if the participants used an ink pen and paper."We've shown that the differences in brain activity are related to the careful forming of the letters when writing by hand while making more use of the senses. Since it's the movement of the fingers carried out when forming letters that promotes brain connectivity, writing in print also has similar benefits for learning as cursive writing," Audrey adds. "This also explains why children who have learned to write and read on a tablet can have difficulty differentiating between letters that are mirror images of each other, such as 'b' and 'd'. They haven't felt with their bodies what it feels like to produce those letters."Considering handwritten note-taking is becoming less common in educational settings, the researchers advocate for more opportunities for students to write by hand. "There's some evidence that students learn more and remember better when taking handwritten lecture notes, while using a computer with a keyboard may be more pragmatic when writing a long text or essay," Audrey concludes.8. What was the special cap used to do?A. Measure the participants' brain activity.B. Evaluate the participants' writing styles.C. Tell the participants when to write or type.D. Record the time the participants used to write.9. What does paragraph 3 focus on about the study?A. Its backgrounds.B. Its equipment.C. Its outcomes.D. Its process.10. What plays the key role in strengthening brain connectivity?A. Writing letters carefully by hand.B. Forming the habit of taking notes.C. Recognizing letters' mirror images.D. Learning to practice cursive writing.11. What does the underlined word "pragmatic" in the last paragraph mean?A. Difficult.B. Traditional.C. Special.D. Practical.DWhen I stepped into the Samcheong Park Library in Seoul, I saw the future. The simple building had a nice selection of books and a cafe where readers could enjoy coffee while gazing at the leaves outside. It was specifically designed without any latest technology."What's so innovative about that?" a librarian in Toronto asked when I showed her pictures. Innovation to her meant digital technology, like 3D printers. "Why couldn't they both be innovative?" I asked.We are constantly told that innovation is the most important force in our economy, without which we would be left behind. But that fear of missing out has led us to fall into the false trappings of innovation over truly innovative ideas that may be simpler and more effective. This mindset implies that if you just buy the new thing, you have innovated! Each year, businesses and individuals run around like broken toy robots, trying to figure out their strategy for the latest buzzword equipment.At best, this is a waste of resources. Devices are bought, used and abandoned, as the technology's capabilities fall short of its promise. But at its worst, this approach can truly cause damage. Schools cut field trips to purchase tablets with few proven benefits. Companies that applied AI into hiring have actually strengthened gender and racial prejudices.True innovation isn't just some magic devices. It is a continuing process of reflection and reassessment, which often means adopting "old" ideas and tools in a new context, or even returning to methods that worked in the past. Adjusted properly, these rearview（后视的）innovations have proved as transformative as novel technologies.Look no farther than the streets of New York, which have been redesigned recently to accommodate cyclists with car-free zones. The idea isn't new. It was created half a century ago, with the aim of bringing cities back to their residents. And while e-reader sales have been exploding, Penguin just announced it would publish tiny printed books, an ideal solution for a market demanding both convenience and physicality.12. Which of the following best describes Samcheong Park Library?A. Dull but convenient.B. Simple but refreshing.C. Old-fashioned but cozy.D. Unexceptional but spacious.13. What can we learn about innovation from Paragraph 3?A. Its true meaning is to buy new things.B. It is important for the growth of economy.C. It shouldn't involve simple and effective ideas.D. Its true meaning has been misread by the public.14. Which statement will the author probably agree with?A. Magic devices encourage innovation.B. Innovation should be human-centered.C. The power of technology is undervalued.D. Wasting resources are a must for innovation.15. What is the writing purpose of the text?A. To introduce some best ideas about innovation.B. To show that future lies in returning to the past.C. To convince people of the true meaning of innovation.D. To stress the important role innovation plays in economy.第二部分阅读七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
