Sometimes they didn’t have money to pay for food, but Monty still kept hoping to own a horse farm.When he was in school, his teacher asked him to write a paper about his dream. He wrote a seven-page(页)paper. He wanted to have a horse farm one day. He even drew a picture of a horse farm in the paper.The next day he handed it in to his teacher.

But designer Belyaev doesn't think that forgetting to check the weatherforecastbefore going out should cause you to get wet. That's why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post(柱)with its own rain-sensing(感应)umbrella.The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a cent ral Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be fit to have a canopy(伞篷) built into a street lamp,” he said.The Lampbrella is a post-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric machine which can open or close the umbrella. Sensors(传感器) then make sure that the umbrella offers walkers shelter(遮蔽)whenever it starts raining.Besides the rain sensor, there's also a 360° moving sensor on the street lamp which finds whether anyone is using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a rather low speed, in order not to hurt the walkers. Besides, it would be fixed on the ground to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being fixed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of walkers.While there are no plans to take the Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and believes that his creation could be fixed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.1.. What does the underlined word “forecast” mean in Chinese?A.预报B.情况C.查询2.. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella?A.To remind people to take an umbrella.B.To check the weather forecast.C.To protect people from the rain.3.Which of the following shows how the Lampbrella works?machine sensorsA.B.C.4.. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.His creation was inspired by an experience from Belyaev's words in Paragraph 2.B.Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the Lampbrella’s safety.C.The Lampbrella will be put into immediate production.5.The best title for this passage should be _____.A.THE USE OF THE LAMPBRELLAB.HOW TO PREVENT RAINC.THE NEW INVENTION-LAMPBRELLAE17、In the past, going to a piano teacher was the only way to learn how to play the piano. You could have one lesson a week. If you didn’t have private(个人的) lessons, you could still learn piano, but you would have to learn it by yourself. This was easy for some, but very difficult for most. However, with technology as it is today, there is at last another way that you can take piano lessons. You can take an online course.An online course can save you lots of money. If a private lesson costs 30 or 40 dollars per week, just think about how quickly that adds up. You can take a complete online course in piano by spending a small part of the money that you would pay for taking weeks of private lessons. Also, private lessons are only usually one hour per week. If you have questions during the rest of the week, or if you forget something that your teacher said, you will have to wait for your next lesson to continue your learning. However, online piano courses are quite different.With an online piano course, you can work at your own pace(进度).

I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island, “I thought you preferred the sea to being on land.”“I do,” replied the captain. “But these forests are under the sea.”After going through a door, we were about ten metres under the water. The light from the sun reached us. Everything looked very colourful. We were going deeper and deeper. At 100 metres deep, we could see quite well, and Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes. This was the forest. The “trees” in the forest were giant seaweed(海草), and all their “branches” were vertical(垂直的).We could not stop looking at them. Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest.Suddenly, I saw a large sea spider about a metre tall. It was going to attack me. Captain Nemo's man killed it with his gun, but it reminded me that the sea could be as dangerous as it was beautiful. When we reached 150 metres, it was dark. The sun's light could not reach this depth(深度). We turned on our lights. We could see about 20 metres around us. Finally, we found Crespo Island—where a steep rock wall rose in front of us.We could go no further, so we walked back towards the Nautilus. Suddenly, Captain Nemo stopped and shot an animal with his gun, it was a beautiful and rare sea otter(水獭). At last, we could see the Nautilus. Several large sharks swam over us. Luckily they didn't see us. We re-entered the Nautilus safely. I was tired but amazed by what I had seen.1.What do “dark shapes” in Paragraph 3 refer to(指的是)?A.Trees. B.Seaweed. C.Rocks.

those cities,so I've taken back the jade.If you use force against me,I'll smash my head and the jade against this pillar.To save the jade,the King of Qin apologized,and then showed Lin the cities on the map.But Lin would not believe him anymore.He ordered his man to secretly take the jade back to Zhao.He himself would stay there and face the King of Qin.Although the King of Qin was furious,he had

(A)Early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps us to have good health. We allneed fresh air. It makes our health better to take morning exercises. The air is never so fresh asearly in the morning. Early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly andfind it easy to learn something by heart. Early rising makes people able to plan the work forthe day. We can’ t work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made inthe spring, the plan for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time toget ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast. So the popularsaying says,“ Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy(富有的) and wise.”( (()36. What does “ early rising mean”?It means _______ early in the morning.A. waking upB. getting upC. having breakfastD. making a day’ s plan )37.

Because we don’ t need to prepare for breakfast.)38. We can work well with _____.A. enough timeB. a good readingC. clean handsD. a good plan(B)The word “ dayhas” two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we areusing “ day to”mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “ day to”mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on onlyhalf of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place ismoved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning (旋转) of theearth. At the equator (赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelvehours long. The sun rises at 6 o’ clock in the morning and sets at 6 o g. For six’ clock in the evenin months the North Pole is tilted (倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights.South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tiltedaway from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights.North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is theseason of long days.()39. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ______ of the earth.A. the pushingB. the pullingC. the spinningD. the passing()40. At the equator day is as long as night ________.A. sometimesB. neverC. usuallyD. always()41.

A little boy was buyingsome rather strange clothes. He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soonwe learnt that he was going to a kindergarten(幼儿园) party. He had done a great job of puttingtogether interesting costumes.I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change(零钱 ). It seemed that he had robbedhis pig bank( 猪形储蓄罐 ) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was shortafter counting all the money. The boy thought for a moment and said,keep the shirt “andPleaseIwill come back with more money.“It was clear that he had already used all the money he had and he was $ 8.00 short. The ladyin front of me said,“ Well, I could pay half of that.“ I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills(纸币) and we needed thecashier to get the change for us. Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find somechange. It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react(反应) with the samemind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said,“ I have too much money. cashier didn’ t need our-dollarten bills. Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first tooffer help, said,“ Wait! I didn a chance’tevento getgive anything!”I smiled at her and said,“You did your share,because itwas your idea and you started all this.“ The little boy smiledand thanked us. We wished him the best and he left. I was leftwith a good feeling. I had seen the love and goodness of othersall around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said,“Itsure feels good to give, doesn’t it? ” I smiled back and said, “Yes !”()42. What is this passage mainly about?( A. Love and goodness. B.
