I also learnt that not all great ideas work.11 is a common part of the inventing 12 .As my father and I worked together, I began to 13 that my dad was quite an inventor himself.

On the first day, my father gave me a watch. “You need to have a watch, so take good care of it,” he said.The next day, I went swimming. The sun was shining on the water. The water was warm and beautiful. I really enjoyed being in the water.When I returned to beach, I was quite tired so I lay down. At that moment, I wanted to see what time it was. But the watch was gone! I looked for it all afternoon, but I could not find it.That night at dinner, my sister asked, “What time is it?”“Ask Tom,” my mother said. “He has a new watch.”Dad looked at me and said, “Don’t tell me that you’ve lost the watch already!”“No!” I said. I was sweating (出汗) with great fear. I knew I was going to be caught in a terrible lie. Just then, there was an announcement, “Ladies and gentlemen, a very nice watch was found on the beach today. If you lost one and can identify (确认) it, please come to the front desk.”At once, I knew what I had to do. I slowly got up, with my whole family staring at me. I went to the desk. There it was. The watch was not broken. It was still working.I walked back to the table, sat down and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell the truth.” My family smiled. They knew that I had finally learned my lesson.19．Tom’s father gave him a new watch because Tom ________.A．needed one B．was on vacationC．disliked his old one D．behaved well at school20．What did Tom do when he found the watch was gone?A．He told his father about that.B．He asked the front desk for help.C．He spent all afternoon looking for it.D．He did nothing and continued lying on the beach.21．How might Tom feel after saying “No”?A．Happy.B．Worried.C．Relaxed.D．Angry. 22．What does the underlined word “lesson” in the last sentence refer to?A．We should listen to parents.B．We should excuse others’mistakes.C．We should take good care of ourselves.D．We should face mistakes instead of telling lies.“Don’t tell it to anyone.” We hear these words before or after someone tells a secret to us. But it can be hard to keep a secret. We just can’t help “spiling the beans”, even if we regret it later.One expert explains why keeping a secret is a challenge. According to Dr Asim Shah, keeping a secret may become a burden. As soon as you tell somebody not to repeat your secret, they begin to have an obsessive urge (过分冲动) to share it with others.With secrets so often getting out, why do people share them in the first place? Shah explained one is that people often feel like it will help them keep close friendships with others. However, linking telling someone your secrets with how close you are to them is not always advisable. It’s important for people to understand that they can have close relationships without sharing their secrets unnecessarily.Another reason is that people feel guilty (内疚的) about not sharing a secret. For example, if your friends tell you a secret but you don’t share it with those close to you, you may feel ashamed. If you don’t share certain things with them, a sense of distrust can develop. Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either losing or winning the trust of someone.He added that people who are more talkative may let a secret slip out, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to share secrets with quieter people. If somebody is quiet and keeps everything in, it may cause them to have more stress, and finally they will talk to somebody.“If you end up accidentally sharing a secret with somebody else, it’s best to be honest and let the person know that you shared his or her secret and that it isn’t so secret anymore,” Shah said.23．What does the underlined phrase “spilling the beans” mean?A．Forgetting the secret.B．Telling the secret to others.C．Discovering the secret.D．Keeping the secret to ourselves.24．The example in the fourth paragraph is to show that ________.A．it is of great importance to trust each otherB．close friends should be honest with each otherC．keeping a secret can make people feel sorryD．it’s not necessary to feel guilty about not sharing anything25．Which is Dr Asim Shah’s opinion?A．Sharing a secret can lead to a close friendship.B．Talkative people are more likely to keep a secret.C．The person who keeps a secret may suffer from stress.D．it’s best to share a secret with quiet people as it's safe with them.26．The passage mainly talks about ________.A．how to avoid letting out a secretB．why it is important to keep a secretC．why it is difficult to keep a secretD．how to find out a secret by ourselves①Of all the animals on Earth, none are more willing to explore than humans. Other animals will go in search of food or water. But humans are searching for possibilities of discovery (发现). So what caused us to explore across the world?②Maybe it’s in our DNA．In 1999, Dr. Chuansheng Chen carried out a study of a gene (基因) known as DRD4-7R. This gene is found in about 20% of all humans. This kind of people are mostly interested in taking risk, exploring, and getting new ideas. Dr. Chen found that DRD4-7R is more common in people who move around a lot than those who don’t. For example, studies in Africa show that the gene is much more common in nomadic tribes (游牧的部落) than in tribes that like to stay in one place better. Several other researchers have studied this topic and found out more to support Dr. Chen’s research.③But can one gene be a drive (驱动) for the need to explore? Dr. Kidd doesn’t think so. He thinks DRD4-7R might make people get more curious (好奇的), but other important sets genes also give us great minds and skilled hands. He believes that not just one gene, but groups of genes work together to create behaviors like exploration.④The environment we live in also makes much difference to our need to explore. For example, during the European Age of Exploration, explorers became rich and famous fortheir discoveries. This made others try to make themselves become rich through exploration too. Therefore, their exploration was more likely encouraged by money than by genes.⑤Maybe the need to explore comes from something inside us, such as the DRD4-7R gene. Or maybe it has more to do with what’s happening in the world around us. Maybe it’s both. Whatever the reason, it seems we (or at least some of us) will keep exploring the mountains, the sea, the stars, and so on because that’s just what humans do.27．What did Dr. Chen find about the DRD4-7R gene?A．It has more influence on people in Africa.B．It could be found in most of the humans.C．It prevents the people in Africa from moving around.D．It may be more common in people who like taking risk.28．What did the example of the European Age of Exploration show?A．The purpose of exploring.B．The importance of the environment.C．The advantage of exploring.D．The big changes of the environment.29．What is the structure of this passage?A．B．C．D．30．Which of the following is the best title of the text?A．Genes’ influence on humans.B．Humans’ need to explore.C．What causes humans to explore.D．How do humans explore.三、选词填空用方框中所给词话的适当形式填空，每词限用一次。

The elder was called Simon and the younger Victor. They loved each other very much, and always took care of each other. Every day they worked from morning until night, getting as much grain （谷物）as possible from their fields.One late autumn evening, after their work in the fields was done, Simon said to his wife, “Victor got married last month. He has to support his family. I think I should put a bag of rice in his barn（谷仓）.”“Oh, that’s a good idea,” said his wife. So, late that night Simon took a bag of rice to Victor’s barn. But the next day, he found something strange! He still had the same number of bags in his barn!Simon decided to take another bag of rice to his brother’s barn that night. But the next morning, he found the same number of bags in his barn again! “This is very strange,” he thought. That night he tried again. He carried a large bag of rice and walked down the road to his younger brother’s house. In the bright moonlight, he could see another person coming down the road. He was carrying something on his shoulder, too. “Younger Brother!” Simon cried, “What are you doing?” “Your family is larger than mine. I thought you needed more rice.” said Victor. The two brothers quickly knew what the strange thing was. They laughed about what had happened. “It is good to have a brother like you,” they both said. And they lived happily ever after.5. What work did the two brothers do every day?A. They grew grain.B. They fed chickens.C. They sold vegetables.D. They built houses.6. When Simon wanted to give rice to his brother, his wife _______.A. hid all the riceB. agreed with himC. wanted to give moreD. became angry7. Victor came at night to _______.A. get more rice from his brotherB. invite his brother to dinnerC. give his brother his own riceD. find what his brother was doing8. What’s the main idea of the story?A. The brothers told lies to each other.B. Hard work always brought good luck.C. A loving person could have a good life.D. Love between family members was valuable.CTests can be stressful. But don’t worry! You’re not alone! Tests have been stressing people out for thousands of years. Here’s one man’s story about test stress.During the Tang Dynasty（朝代）there was a poor man named Meng Jiao. He loved studying and writing poems. Though his hard work helped him become a talented poet, he needed to make more money. He decided to take the Ke Ju exams. The exams were open for anyone to take. Whoever passed could get an official（官方的）job.Meng Jiao studied hard for the tests. He took them several times. Each time, he failed. But Meng Jiao never gaveup. He studied harder and harder. He took the tests over and over again.Finally, when he was 46 years old, Meng Jiao passed the test! He was so happy! He put on new clothes. He tied on red flowers to celebrate. Then he rode on a horse through Chang’an City.During his ride, Meng Jiao wrote a poem. In English, it reads, “Horseback riding swiftly（迅速地）through the spring breeze（微风）, while seeing all the flowers of Chang’an in one day.”Meng Jiao’s poem tells about his feelings on that exciting day. His words describe the feeling of enjoying the flowers and Chang’an City in a day.The poem became famous. But people said it would be impossible to really enjoy everything in one day. This led to the phrase（成语）“seeing flowers while riding a horse swiftly.” It describes giving something a quick look without noticing the details（细节）.9. Meng Jiao decided to take the Ke Ju exams because he _______.A. needed to make more moneyB. wanted to write poemsC. wanted to enjoy the flowersD. had to deal with the stress10. The third paragraph（段落）tells us _______.A. stress is bad for studyB. we should give up when we failC. it was not easy to pass the Ke Ju examsD. Meng Jiao was so clever that he succeeded11. Meng Jiao’s poem on horseback expressed _______.A. the beauty of Chang’an CityB. his excitement after his successC. his stress from the Ke Ju examsD. the difficulty he had during his study12. Which of the following comes from the story?A.鸟语花香B. 五花杀马C. 走马观花D. 落花流水DMany people dream of traveling into outer space. However, spending too much time in space may cause health problems. That’s why astronauts shouldn’t spend more than six months on the International Space Station（ISS）at a time.Muscle（肌肉）and bone loss（骨质损失）. In a weightless environment, astronauts don’t need to use their muscles to support themselves. So their muscles start shrinking（萎缩）. To keep their muscles strong, astronauts need to exercise for about two hours each day on the ISS.Sleep disorder（紊乱）. In space, the sun rises every 90 minutes. It is hard for astronauts to get used to thislight-dark cycle（循环）when they sleep. Also, they need to sleep in a sleeping bag that is fixed to a wall. It is uncomfortable. Now astronauts have individual（单独的）sleeping pods（睡眠舱）that help shut out some of the light. Still, studies have found that most astronauts only sleep about six hours each night, even though they should have eight and a half hours.Brain changes. Scientists have found that the position of the brain changes during spaceflight. This can influence how the brain deals with how we see, stay balanced（平衡）and move around. That’s why some astronauts can’t control their movement and balance after returning to Earth. Scientists have also found that astronauts may get used to this change after going on more spaceflights. But they still need to do more research.13. When astronauts don’t use their muscles in space, _______.A. they should eat much meatB. their muscles start shrinkingC. they need to exercise all dayD. they can’t support themselves14. Astronauts can’t sleep well mainly because of _______.A. the weightB. the temperatureC. the lightD. the air15.

OK, so that doesn’t sound too bad, but this was no ordinary goodbye, because each day Rain’s dad did it while wearing a different fancy-dress costume (服装)!It all started on Rain’s first day of high school. Like many proud parents, Rochelle and Dale, Rain’s parents, sent him off to school with a big wave. Feeling himself no longer a little kid, Rain found it quite embarrassing. That evening he said how unhappy he was when they waved him off. Then Dale had a great idea.The next morning, as Rain stepped onto the school bus, he could hear his school friends laughing. He was shocked to find that his dad was waving him off, dressed as an American football player, complete with a ball and helmet. For the rest of the school year, Dale waved goodbye dressed in different costumes. One day he was a king, the next a cook, the following Wonder Woman.Amazingly, Dale only spent $50 on all of the costumes. He got most of them from the family fancy-dress collection and then several friends and neighbors were happy to help.Most of Rain’s classmates looked forward to seeing what Dale would be wearing every day. Even Rain finally realized how cool his dad was.On the last day of school, Dale dressed up as a pirate (海盗) and stood next to a sign which said, “It’s been fun waving at the bus. Have a great summer.”31. How long did Rain’s dad wave him off in a costume?A．For a school year. . B．For a term. C．For a year. D．For a summerholiday.32.

The two sides of Ma Mian Qun are pleated (起褶的), and there is a smooth part in the middle, commonly known as “Ma Mian”.Why is it called “Ma Mian”? In fact, “Ma Mian” is a kind of structure (结构) used for protection in the city wall system. However, all the books about Ma Mian Qun only show that the smooth surface without pleats in the middle is called “Ma Mian”. But there is no further explanation of how Ma Mian Qun got its name.Ma Mian Qun is colorful, mostly red and blue. Red means good luck and joy. According to Han customs, women usually wore red skirts during celebrations of festivals. In the Qing dynasty, blue was also common and popular, paired with black and yellow.Ma Mian Qun has different kinds of patterns with different meanings. For example, dragon and phoenix patterns show the love between a man and a woman or a beautiful marriage. Peony(牡丹) is a symbol of wealth and honor.Recently, Ma Mian Qun has become a popular form of skirt for Hanfu fans. More and more modern fashion designers (设计师) find ideas from Ma Mian Qun. For example, some get ideas from the patterns. Some combine (结合) the styles of Ma Mian Qun with T-shirts or blouses, which are more suitable for everyday wear. Even western fashion has been influenced by Ma Mian Qun for many years.36.

Some of these help us solve problems. Others make life easier, or more fun. Let’s see some of them!Easy walkingThese m ight look like skates, but they’re actually battery-powered (电池驱动) shoes with wheels. They let you walk faster and more easily. Moonwalkers, made by Shift Robotics, use AI to sense when you’re speeding up or slowing down and adjust (调整) themselves. The wheels lock when you’re taking the stairs (台阶). With Moonwalkers, you can walk twice as fast as the average speed. Not only can you save a lot of time, but also go green!A cooler colorThe common paint on a white building reflects (反射) 80 to 90% of the sunlight that shines on it. The rest of the light warms the nearby area. But a new Whiter Paint is made of chemicals that better reflect UV rays. This paint reflects up to 98% of the sunlight.“The heat is reflected into deep space,” says Xiulin Ruan, who led the Purdue University team that created the paint.“The paint can keep our cities cooler.” The team says it also has a lightweight paint for airplanes, cars, and even spaceships.Stopping firesAlertCalifornia is the public-safety program at the University of California San Diego. It uses AI to predict wildfires. The AI finds smoke and other early signs of fire, using more than 1,000 cameras in forests across the state. It warns people through text messages. In two months, the system correctly found 77 fires before any 911 calls came in.41. What in Moonwalkers can help users control the speed?A．The battery. B．The wheel. C．The AI. D．The lock.42.

一、选择题1．Jane is very friendly. She often ______ her classmates.A．has helped B．helped C．helps D．will help C解析：C【解析】【详解】句意：Jane是非常友好的，她经常帮助她的同学们。

has helped现在完成时；helped过去式；helps第三人称单数形式；will help一般将来时。

根据句意可知，这里说的是客观事实，且句中有often，表示经常性的动作，应用一般现在时，主语是单数第三人称，故选C。

2．Mr. Lee ______ to a new city ten years ago.A．moves B．will move C．moved D．has moved C解析：C【解析】【详解】句意：李先生十年前搬到了一个新的城市。

考查一般过去时。

A. moves搬、移动，第三人称单数；B. will move一般将来时；C. moved一般过去时；D. has moved现在完成时。

根据句中的时间状语ten years ago，可知句子时态应用一般过去时，“搬到某处”英文表达是move to，move的过去式为moved，故答案选C。

3．A flower show ______ in the city next year.A．will hold B．is held C．was held D．will be held D解析：D【解析】【详解】句意：明年这个城市将举行一场花展。

考查一般将来时的被动语态。

A. will hold一般将来时；B. is held一般现在时的被动语态；C. was held 一般过去时的被动语态；D. will be held 一般将来时的被动语态。

根据next year可知句子时态用一般将来时，由于主语a flower和动词hold之间是被动关系，所以应用一般将来时的被动语态，其结构为：will+be+动词过去分词，结合选项可知D选项符合题意，故答案选D。
