" shouted mom and dad from the next room．They came into the kitchen and saw Marty was looking around for a gift．"I guess you think we forgot to get you a gift ，" said mom．Marty looked confused．"Well，you usually put my giftin the kitchen，" Marty said．Dad told Marty to follow him outside the house in the yard．"This is fantastic!" shouted Marty．"I don't take many pictures，and I probably wouldn't use the basketball much，and my bike is okay for now．But I will use the telescope! Thanks so much．" "You're welcome，" said mom anddad．All that night，Marty saw many beautiful stars and even the planet Mars．Marty would remember his tenth birthday for the rest of his life !24.What did Marty hope to get as a birthday gift most？______A.

Leia has lived a life of volunteering for years．B. Leia and her brother helped their mom for years．C. Leia was born in a great family of volunteering．D. Leia's mom set up an organization for homeless teens．28.Leia's products meet homeless people's needs mostly because ______ ．A. they are cheap and naturalB. they can offer personal choicesC. they are used to drive away mosquitoesD. they can serve three purposes with little water29.According to the passage，we know that ______ ．A. Leia invented the product in order to win the MASTERS competitionB. Leia's invention came from her will to create and to help othersC. The family influence played a decisive role in Leia's inventionD. Leia believed that science could help solve problems easilyDVirtual （虚拟的）reality is a way to create a computer-made environment that brings the user into a virtual world．If you ever have put on a VR headset，you would know exactly what I am talking about．From an experiential view we do understand the idea，but what about the technical backend that goes into making it all possible？In this blog，we will understand the technology behind virtual reality and the basic terms about the development of a virtual ecosystem for a VR headset．The primary subject of virtual reality is simulating （模拟）the vision．Every headset is to perfect their method to create an immersive （浸人式）3D environment．Each VR headset puts up a screen or two in front of eyes，keeping the user away from any interaction with the real world．Two autofocus lenses （自动对焦镜片）are generally placed between the screen and the eyes that change based on eye movement and positioning．The vision appears on the screen either by using a mobile phone or HDMI line connected to a PC．To create a truly immersive virtual reality，there are certain requirements - a frame rate （帧率）of at least 60 fps，a refresh rate and at least 100-degree field of view （though 180 degrees is perfect）．If either of these doesn't work according to the standards，the user will experience too big of a time difference between their actions and the response from the screen．We need the response to be less than 20 ms （1/1000 second）to fool the brain which is achieved by joining all the above in the right proportion （比例）．Another matter that needs to be looked at here is to prevent netsickness because of the differences between the frame rate and refresh rate．Apart from the image，there are certain other things that go into creating an immersive VR experience，holding the user's attention completely in the virtual environment．For example，sound effects，when put with the image，can create very attractive effects．By using a headphone and 3D sound effects，the user can totally believe in the virtual environment．While perfecting sound effects，proper care needs to be taken about the consistency （一致）between the pictures and the sound．If you start playing frightening music in the background of a happy scene，it will just put the user off．In future，we will see rapid progress in creating a truly immersive digital experience．With leading players like Google，Microsoft，Oculus，and HTC making great efforts to improve the capabilities （性能），we are not far from achieving a virtual reality that would feel so much better than the real world．If you would like to develop a VR app for your business，then feelfree to get in touch．With over 10 years of experience in mobile technologies，we can make every dream a reality．30. A VR headset helps the user ______ ．A. create the vision on the screenB. understand the technical backendC. better experience a 3D environmentD. keep interaction with the real world31.The words " put the user off" in Paragraph 4 probably mean " ______ "A. take the user's attention awayB. get the user interestedC. hold the user's imagination backD. help the user understand32.What is the main purpose of writing this passage？______A.

The brain can tell the time difference when the response is more than 20ms四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）34.阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题．Paperless homework will affect students' handwritingA growing number of primary schools in Shanghai are now encouraging "paperless"homework．Instead of writing with a pen，children can finish their homework simply by "surfing and typing" on their iPad screens．Many people welcome the use of this new technology in schools．And it isn't difficult to understand why digital homework could be the next big thing in education ：it reduces waste；makes it easier for teachers to collect homework；and now that everything else is digitalized，homework should too．But there's an overlooked downside to online homework，as it shows an alarming trend （趋势）：how technology is affecting physical handwriting．In today's digital age，handwriting is already a weakening skill．Can you remember the last time you used a pen？For me，it was when I had to fill out a form at work．To be honest，I couldn't write quite a few characters and had to type them on my iPhone to remind me of how to write them correctly．I know I'm not alone．There are more saying they share similar embarrassment （尴尬）when asked to write by hand．In a time when computers，smart phones and keyboards are widely used in the world，is handwriting even important？The answer is yes．Handwriting plays an important role in the learning process．Writing a character is more difficult than typing．It requires the body and mind work together actively．So for school-age children，writing not only allows them to memorize characters，but also trains their brains the way typing can't．Too many children，lost in technology，lie on a sofa or in bed with their smartphones or iPads - a seldom mentioned side effect of modern technology，which may lead to physical problems later．All said，I'm not saying that digital homework should be canceled．Digitalization is anunstoppable trend．But for courses such as Chinese and English language，I hope to see digital homework introduced later into the courses，at least after children have had the ability to write characters and spell words well．How do children finish their paperless homework？______Why do many people welcome digital homework？______What happened when the writer used a pen to fill out a form at work？______Why is handwriting important for school-age children？______What does the writer think of digital homework？______五、书面表达（本大题共2小题，共30.0分）35.根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作．文中已给出内容不计入总数．所给提示词语仅供选用．请不要写出你的校名和姓名．假如你是李华，你们学校将要举办一场阅读沙龙（Reading

For 16 years,she loved her dear pet cat Blondie very much and wanted to spend as much time with her as possible. It is totally understandable thatshe had a special feeling for Blondie because she,d saved her from a building in Forth Worth. Butrecently,shortly after she and her husband had realized that Blondie seemed to be getting sick,the elderly cat died in her arms on her way to the pet hospital. Naturally,Mrs. Andrews was heartbroken.After Blondie,s death,Mrs.Andrews went to work every day,feeling upset. She couldn,t help but share the sad news of her sad loss with some of her students at Joshua High School in Joshua, T,and shortly after,a few of the girls in her class came up with a few surprises to cheer her up.As one student filmed the moment,the girls first gave her some white roses,followed by cupcakes and balloons to express their care. Mrs.Andrews seemed touched,but it was their next surprise that deeply moved her and that everyone was talking about.All that the shocked teacher could seem to say was,“Are they for me?”as she held the baby cats named Missy and Girlie.“I knew something was going on when only half of my class was in my room,second period the next day when the bell rang,”Andrews told the Huffington Post,feeling thankful. “Then she held them out to me and said they were mine. My heart can now experience happiness again.”What the high school students did is really meaningful,especially for people who have gone through loss,like Tonya Andrews. The good news is that it certainly looks like it was worth all theeffort. Tonya Andrews finally was happy when her students did kind things for her.24. Why did Mrs.Andrews have a special feeling for Blondie?A. Because Blondie got sick.B. Because she was always lonely.C. Because Blondie was her first pet.D. Because she saved Blondie from a building.25. What did Mrs.Andrews do after Blondie died?A. She shared the sad news with her students.B. She bought two baby cats,Missy and Girlie.C. She got into an argument with her husbanD.D. She gave up her job at Joshua High School.26. According to the passage,what are Mrs.Andrews, students like?A. Confident and honest.B. Understanding and caring.C. Humorous and active.D. Brave and strong wille D.Coos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But are they actually a goodthing?Those people who are against zoos would argue that animals often suffer(遭受痛苦)physically and mentally by being enclose'd. Even the best man made environments can't come close to matching the space,diversity (多样性),and freedom that animals have in their natural homes. This causes many zoo animals to become sick. Catching animals in the wild also causes much suffering by separating families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example,ocean parks often force dolphins and whales to perform. These sea animals dolphin may die years earlier than their wild relatives.On the other hand,by bringing people and animals together,zoos can educate the public about animal protection and encourage people to save animals and their homes. Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated in circuses,or pets which have been given up and no longer wante D. oos also carry out important research into subjects like animalbehavior and how to treat illness.circusOne of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding (繁衍)programs,especially for endangered species (物种). In the wild,some of the species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding,and they might also be hurt or even killed by people.A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in a safe environment. In addition,as numbers of some wild species drop,there is an increased danger of populations becoming too genetically(基因上)similar. Breeding programs provide a safeguardzoo bred animals can be put into the wild to increase genetic diversity.However,those people who are against zoos say that many zoo bred animals are not put back intothe wild. A lot of animals are sold not only to other zoos but also to circuses in the US or wild parks inSouth Africa,where some people are willing to pay a lot of money for the chance to kill a helpless animal. Often,these animals are familiar with humans and have very little chance of escaping.So,are zoos good for animals or not?Perhaps it all depends on how well zoos are managed, and the benefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects. However,it is understandable thatmany people believe enclosing animals for any reason is simply wrong.27. According to Paragraph 2,some sea animals may die earlier than their wild relatives because . A. they were born in the ocean park B. they don't have enough living spaceC. they are forced to behave unnaturallyD. they suffer from family separation28. What is the main purpose of international breeding program?A. To increase genetic diversity.B. To protect mistreated animals.C. To free enclosed animals.D. To do research on animal behavior.29. What,s the author,s opinion of zoos?A. He doubts the value of zoos.B. He is a true supporter of all kinds of zoos.C. He is against the idea of having zoos aroundD. He sees the importance of the zoo management.DThe Rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI;人工智能)discusses AI technology and how it might affect humans in the future,but the future is already here. In 2011,America's Favorite Quiz Show held a competition between two men and an IBM computer named “Watson”. IBM describes Watson as “a technology that understands all forms of data and also reasons and learns.”Both men thought they could beat Watson. Instead,the computer and its Artificial Intelligence soundly bested both ofthe human beings.ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MADE SIMPLEArtificial Intelligence generally refers to machines with human like intelligence,such as problem solving and learning. In order to be considered AI,the computer must pass the Turing test,named after Alan Turing,a British mathematician who worked with the first computers.In the 1950s,Turing published a paper questioning whether a computer could be used to trickhumans into believing they were interacting(互动)with an actual human being. He found that if 30% of humans who interacted with a “machine”believed they were actually interacting with a human being,then the computer could be considered as AI.A simple example of AI is Apple,s Siri. Ask Siri to do anything,from calling a friend to bookinga dinner table,and Siri can do it. Siri seems almost human. When you ask,“Are you a real person?”Siri answers,“That is a really personal question.”But,just because a system can behave like humans does not mean it can think like humans. Or,does it?JOINING OF HUMAN & MACHINEIt seems that our devices(设备)will turn into humans. Our phones already tell us to take anumbrella before we walk out the door. They volunteer traffic conditions so we know how long it willtake to drive to work.Our devices can interact with us in a way that looks like a real conversation with another humanbeing,like with Siri. It does not seem crazy at all to think that AI may be programmed to actually think. If it has not already happened,it likely will happen in the near future.Have we come to the time when computers and AI have caught up to human beings?Although computers have the ability to make our life better,is it possible that they may control and destroy human beings in the end?WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDSIt seems pretty clear that in the future,we're going to see a human machine hybrid. Humans will be stronger,live longer and be smarter. Ray urzweil,a computer scientist,believes that within50 years,the humans on Earth will be about 50 to 80% robotic. There is no question that AI will bea part of every technology that humans create. Will it turn out to be more of a benefit to humankind or will it be a risk and threaten(威胁到)humanity as we know it?If AI is programmed according toIsaac Asimov's 3 Laws of Robotics,humans won,t have a problem with machines;but for some,evil AI still stands in the way of a peaceful and safe life on earth.30. The story of computer Watson is mentioned here to tell us that .A. the age of machines has comeB. humans make their own enemiesC. AI has actually come into our lifeD. humans are playing a dangerous game31. From the passage we can learn that .A. Turing test was designed to examine the first computersB. machines interacting with humans can be called AIC. Siri can volunteer to book a dinner tableD. AI will help humans to be stronger and smarter32. What does the underlined expression “a human machine hybrid”probably mean?A. a machine with a human lookB. a human created by machinesC. a body part robotic part humanD. a robot that can behave like humans33. The passage is mainly about .A. the history and future of AIB. the advantages and disadvantages of AIC. the examples of AID. the competition between humans and AI四､阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题｡(共10 分,每小题2 分)Albino PowerI was born an albino(白化病患者)in Scranton,Pennsylvania,in 1945. No one in my family had ever known what an albino was,what it meant to be an albino,what had to be done differently because I was an albino.My parents and friends treated me just like they treated everybody else. That was just about thebest thing they could have done. It gave me a leg up on trusting myself,so when troubles came along,I could deal with them.True,my schoolbook photo always looked like a snowball with two pieces of coal for eyes. Likemost albinos,I had terrible eyesight,but the fact that I could hardly see didn,t worry me all thatmuch.ids laughed at me,calling me “Whitey”.

I,ve done it now for more thanthirty years in print and in video,and now in cyberspace. People make jokes about how I,m the only“blind editor(编辑)”they know,but the jokes are friendly smiles now,and some of them are signs of respect. And I make jokes about being an albino. I have even developed an all white routine,if you could call it that.I was just a proud albino kid from the coal country of Pennsylvania. I now realize that being born an albino helped me to get over difficulties,become confident,and be proud of my personal achievement.34. How did the writer's parents and friends treat him?35.
