A healthy body is the best riches. Without it, nothing can be done well. If you are poor in health, you will have to take medicine day after day. You can’t even work, do sports and so on. Secondly, one must be of good quality. Always do something good for others. Help those in trouble and care about the people around you. If everyone did the same, what a wonderful world this would be! Thirdly, one must have the ability(能力)to work with others. Cooperation and communication (合作和交流) are two important keys to better human relations. Everyone needs friends because no one can live through life alone or do everything he wants to.Besides the examples above, patriotism is the one we should never forget. Patriotism means a love for one’s country. It is one of the highest qualities of human’s. Everyone should love his own country. But people sometimes think that patriots (爱国者) must be fighters or that they live in a time of fighting for their country. That is wrong. A good youth’s work is not only fighting. A good youth will do the things his country asks him to do.I think a good youth of today should also have some training in art. If everyone can enjoy artand be able to make more of it for others, then people will live better and enjoy more.( ) 41. What’s the first thing a good youth should have?A. A healthy body.B. The best riches.C. The good ability. D The patriotism( ) 42. A person who has good qualities should________.A. think of himselfB. help others that need helpC. help the people they knowD. always do as others do.( ) 43. The writer tells us that working with others is________.A. good for some peopleB. important for everyoneC. not necessary to be good friends D interesting( ) 44. From the passage we know the patriots must be________.A. fighters to protect their countriesB. people who fight for their countriesC. people who do what their country wants them to doD. fighters live in a time of fighting for their country.( ) 45. If you want to be a good youth of today, ________.A. you should live aloneB. you should also know artC. you can keep your own ideasD. you should fight for your countryBPeople often say,“Children can't do maths problems .It's because parents can't do their children's homework .”Here's an example to show what I mean.The other day my daughter brought home her maths homework,“I have to subtract (减)179 from 202”, she said.“ ..”“But we need a 10 here .Where is the 10?”“I don't know where the 10 is.Let's just subtract 179 from 202.Nine from two is three.You carry one and add it to seven .Eight from zero is two .The answer is 23 .”“We can't do it that way .We have to use the 10 .”“Well, I’m going to call your teacher to see how she subtracts 179 from 202 .”Over the telephone, I said that I was having a bit of trouble with the homework she had given to my daughter, the teacher said, “In the right-hand column we have units of one .The two in that column counts for two ones.The zero in the centre counts for zero tens.The two in the left-hand column counts for hundreds .Are you clear?” But I didn't think it was clear.I hung up and found my way to the medicine box .My head was now hurting .I started putting pills of medicine into my mouth .“How many did you take?” my wife asked .“I took on eand then I took another...I knew one and one was two, but don't ask me what it is now .”( )46 .The daughter wanted ________the other day.A .to give her father a lessonB .to show how difficult maths wasC .her father to phone her teacherD .her father to help her with the homework ( )47 .Which of the following sentences is not true?A .The father had a different way to do the maths problem.B .The father couldn't do his daughter's maths homework.C .The daughter couldn't understand her father's way.D .The daughter had some trouble doing the maths problem.( )48 .From what the teacher said, we know the word units means________ here.A .whole number less than 10B .whole thingsC .groups of lessonsD .the smallest numbers.( )49 .What can we learn from the text?A.

But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do?In the UK and US there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer.Have you heard the saying “When you wish upon a star” ? If you are looking up at the sky on a clear night and you see a sudden flash of light, it is probably a shooting star! Seeing one doesn’t happen very often. The saying goes that if you see one you have been very lucky, and so if you make a wish, it will come true.Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbit’s foot. Some people believe that rabbits are lucky animals, so they carry a part of the rabbit, its foot, for good luck. There are all kinds of strange, unclear rules about which of the rabbit’s feet is the luckiest. It is said that this good luck tradition is the oldest one of all. However, as the funny saying goes, “Depend on the rabbit’s foot if you will, but remember it didn’t work for the rabbit!”People in Britain love trees. If it is autumn and leaves are falling from the trees, some people try to catch the leaves as they fall because they think each leaf they catch will bring them a lucky month in the following year—they will need to catch 12 falling leaves to have a whole year of good luck!( )51. ______ is mentioned in the oldest good luck tradition.A. A rabbit’s footB. A falling leafC. A cheerful wish from friendsD. A shooting star( )52. From Paragraph 3, we know that ______.A. shooting stars can often be seenB. people can see a shooting star on a rainy nightC. your wish may come true if you see a shooting starD. people believe that it’s unlucky to see a shooting star( )53. British people try to catch 12 falling leaves because ______.A. the leaves fall in autumnB. there are so many leaves to catchC. the leaves can bring them a lucky monthD. they want to have a whole year of good luck( )54. In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “them” refers to (指) ______.A. treeB. peopleC. leavesD. years( )55. The passage is mainly about ______.A. how to wish upon a starB. things that bring good luckC. British people love leavesD. which of the rabbit’s feet is the luckiestDThere was a story many years ago of a school teacher--- Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the ot her children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other stude nts, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume(香水)。

Just one kilogram of gel can absorb up to six liters of water in a dry climate. For those living in a climate with relative humidity(潮湿), one kilogram of gel can collect up to 13 liters of water a day. As the gel is so inexpensive and easy to make, it may offer a way of providing drinking water to countries with water shortages.Previously, researchers have harvested fresh water from fog and dew, but that only serves areas with high humidity. Other attempts at pulling water from desert air consume lots of energy and do not produce much. In fact, this gel is a big improvement from previous water harvesting technologies. The maximum water harvested has been 5.87 liters in places with relative humidity. This new gel doubles this amount, uses no energy and is simple to operate and it can be molded into a shape or size that best suits the user.“This new work is about practical solutions that people can use to get water in the hottest, driest places on Earth,” said Guihua Yu, professor at the Cockrell School of Engineering. “This could allow millions of people without consistent access to drinking water to have simple, water generating devices(取水装置)at home that they can easily operate.”“This is not something you need an advanced degree to use,” the paper’s lead author, Youhong “Nancy” Guo said. “It’s straightforward enough that anyone can make it at home if they have the materials.” Scientists are planning on making a thicker gel that will increase the production, making this technology a practicable solution to drought.1.What do we know about the gel film from paragraph 2?A.It can increase the humidity of the air.B.It can harvest drinking water from the air.C.It has been widely applied in desert areas.D.It costs lots of money and energy to produce.2.What is Guihua Yu’s attitude towards the new waterharvesting method?A.Indifferent.B.Skeptical.C.Disapproving.D.Hopeful.3.What does the underlined word “straightforward” in last paragraph mean?A.easy.B.straight.C.frank .D.cheap4.What will scientists plan to do next?A.Develop a thicker gel.B.Produce the gel on a large scale.C.Raise money for further research.D.Teach people to make the gel at home.BFor late 19thcentury North Americans and Europeans, a display of tableware (餐具)could reveal much about someone’s social position, as the wealthy took great care to get different kinds of forks for everything. Before the 18th century, people of all classes usually ate with a knife and a spoon.The fork’s path to the table was hardwon and slow. In ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, forks were used for slicing food into pieces or lifting meat from a pot or fire.Following a reduction in size, the fork appeared to have entered dining areas in the courts of the Middle East and Byzantine Empire by the eighth and ninth centuries, and became mon among wealthy families there by the tenth century. Early in the 11th century, it appeared in various pieces of European art. In the late 11th century, St.Peter Damian from Ostia wrote about a Byzantine princess who used forks and regarded her dying of a disease as punishment for such “luxury”.The fork’s slow conquest of Europe was carried out from Italy. Motivated by the same concerns for hygiene(卫生),forks were bought by wealthy Britons,inspired by Queen Victoria, who regarded fork use as a sign of good manners.The fork’s introduction to North America dates back to 1633, when John Winthrop, a founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, was gifted a set of forks. The Industrial Revolution strengthened the fork’s presence on dining room tables as production of flatware became less expensive. Writing in 1896 inSocial Eriquere,Maud C.Cooke declared the fork had finally conquered the knife in America and “any attempt to give the knife importance at table is looked upon as an offense(冒犯)against good taste.”5.What can we learn about forks from paragraph1?A.They were used improperly in the 18th century.B.They had many different types in the 19th century.C.They were popular in Europe before the 18th century.D.They led to North American’s rise in social position.6.What was a function of forks in ancient Egypt?A.To eat food.B.To decorate tables.C.To cut food.D.To create works of art.7.Who was against the use of forks?A.St.Peter Damian.B.Thomas Coryate.C.Queen Victoria D.Maud C.Cooke.8.What marked the beginning of the fork’s introduction to North America?A.The appearance of flatwareB.The start of the Industrial Revolution.C.John Winthrop receiving forks as presents.D.Maud C.Cooke writing Social Etiquette.CSome people think if you are happy, you are blind to reality. But when we research it, happiness actually raises every single business and educational oute for the brain. How did we miss this? Why do we have these social misunderstandings about happiness? Because we assumed you were average. When we study people, scientists are often interested in what the average is.Many people think happiness is genetic. That’s only half the story, because the average person does not fight their genes. When we stop studying the average and begin researching positive outliers people who are above average for a positive aspect like optimism or intelligence a wildly different picture appears. Our daily decisions and habits have a huge impact upon both our levels of happiness and success.Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its limited resources as you process the world. If you scan for the negative first, your brain really has no resources left over to see the things you are grateful for or the meaning embedded(嵌入) in your work. But if you scan the world for the positive, you start to acquire an amazing advantage.I wrote the cover story for the Harvard Business Review magazine on “Happiness Leads to Profits”. Based on my article called “Positive Intelligence” and my research in The Happiness Advantage, I summarized our researched conclusion: the single greatest advantage in the modern economy is a happy and busy workforce.A decade of research in the business world proves that happiness raises nearly every business and educational oute: increasing sales by 37%, productivity by 31%, and accuracy on tasks by 19%, as well as a number of health and qualityoflife improvements.9.The underlined word “this” in the first paragraph refers to ________.A.the fact that people are happyB.the connection between happiness and educational outeC.the fact that people often misunderstand happinessD.the fact that most people are average10.What can we learn from the passage?A.Scientists are only interested in what the average is.B.You can choose to be happy or not.C.The average are not happy at all.D.Our decisions and habits have nothing to do with happiness.11.Why does the writer mention his articles and research?A.To advertise himself.B.To arouse the readers’ interest.C.To support his point about happiness.D.To attract the readers to read his articles.12.What is the author’s purpose of writing this article?A.To describe the misunderstandings about happiness.B.To show people the importance of happiness.C.To make the point of what business and educational oute lies in.D.To make the point that happiness promotes business and educational oute.DHave you ever yelled at your puter because it wasn’t working? Your puter couldn’t “yell” back until now. AI researchers are now working on puters that can argue and perhaps even win debates with humans.IBM scientists published a paper in Nature on March 17 about their new AI system Project Debater. It can debate with people independently in front of live audiences. After listening to arguments from its opponent (对手), the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. It looks for ideas that can support its own argument.Testing on the system began in 2019 when it debated with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for most debate petition victories. The debate topic was whether or not preschool should be subsidized(给. . . . . 补助), and the AI system argued in favor of this idea. Although the AI lost the debate in the end based on the audience vote, the audience said it did very well. Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge about the topic, while only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan. Also, Project Debater has shown strength at making impressive and logical opening statements in the debate, according to Scientific American.After peting with various human debaters, the AI system’s overall performance remains inferior(逊色的), “fully capable of sounding awkward during an argument, ” noted Scientific American.In other words, the backandforth arguments in the AI system’s debates don’t sound like a real human conversation. “On stage, Project Debater is far from perfect, and its missteps (过失) reveal just how difficult and how human argumentation and debate are, ” said puter scientist Chris Reed of the University of Dundee in the UK.Humans and technology have been facing off for decades. In 1997, IBM’s Deep Blue became the first puter to defeat a reigning(卫冕的)chess champion, besting titan (巨人)Garry Kasparov in a sixgame match. So after two decades, have IBM’s researchers just reproduced a “Deep Blue” to debate? It’s much more than that, the researchers noted. Argument and debate are fundamental(基本的)capabilities(能力) of human intelligence, and it’s a step outside of AI’s fort zone to enter this realm(领域), according to the article in Nature.13.How can Project Debater debate with humans?A.By learning from humans.B.By making use of its internal data.C.By listening to researchers’ instructions.D.By collecting a lot of data in a short time.14.What did the majority of the audience think about the performance of Project Debater in the testing? A.It made them more aware of the topic.B.Its statements were not logical enough.C.Its overall performance was better than Natarajan’s.D.Its opening statements were boring.15.What do paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly talk about?A.The disadvantages of Project Debater.B.Project Debater’s petitions with other human debaters.C.The application of the A system in the future.D.Challenges facing the AI system and human debaters.16.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A.Project Debater is considered an updated version of Deep Blue.B.Humans have an advantage over AI in debating.C.AI has a long way to go before it can win against humans.D.AI technology hasn’t progressed much in the last decades.五、阅读七选五Directions: Read the following passage and fill in each blank with the sentence that best fits the context.

space.Te information NASA collects could be helpful for more than just futurespace travel.It could also aid people right here on Earth.Scientists may learn new methods to help patients recover from
