Ⅶ.阅读理解
Can you imagine a pair of shoes that could tie themselves All you would have to do is to put them on and push a button(按钮). Well, this idea is becoming a reality. The shoe company Nike created the self-tying shoes!
This idea first came from the movie Back to the Future Ⅱ, and Nike has been working for years to create shoes that can do this in real life. They have finally done it with Nike HyperAdapt 1.0.
So how do they work According to Nike, the shoes are “powered by an underfoot-lacing mechanism(脚下系带装置)”. This is kind of like a small motor(发动机) that has the power to lace the shoes. All the wearer has to do is to put them on, and at first, the shoes are very loose(松的). But then you can push the “+” button, and the shoes will tighten to be the perfect fit for you. To take them off, all you have to do is to push the “-” button, and the shoes will be easily off.
They have been released to the public. Do you want to get a pair of your own

答案
Ⅰ.1.mention　2.style　3.list
4.daily/everyday　5.website
6.pleasure
Ⅱ.7.pioneer　8.point　9.widely
10.project　11.heels
Ⅲ.12.an invention; everyday/daily lives
13.on such
14.How beautifully; sung

Ⅳ.17.A　be used for…意为“被用来……”,for为介词,后跟动词时,用动名词形式。
18.D　
19.D　句意:小时候祖父母照顾我。主语I与谓语动词look after之间是被动关系,所以要用被动语态;由“when I was young”可知用一般过去时。故选D。
20.A　With pleasure意为“乐意效劳”;You are kidding 意为“你在开玩笑”;No way意为“没门”。句意:“请帮我照顾宠物狗好吗 我将离开大约两个星期。”“乐意效劳!我会好好照顾它的。”
Ⅴ.21—25　FDBEA
Ⅵ.【主旨大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者小时候对制造东西非常感兴趣,上学后对托马斯·爱迪生及其发明有了更深的了解。由于托马斯·爱迪生的影响,父亲对作者的支持、鼓励和作者对发明的兴趣,使作者成为一名工程师和发明家。
26.C　before意为“在……之前”;after意为“在……之后”;when意为“当……时候”;until意为“直到……”。由后文“I really became excited about inventing after I learned about Thomas Edison.”可知,“我”小时候就热爱制造东西,故选C。
27.B　28.B　
29.D　light意为“灯泡”;project意为“课题,项目”;suggestion意为“建议”;invention意为“发明”。由后文“I like the recorded sound and the electric light most.”可知,“我”最喜欢留声机和电灯,故此处指的是爱迪生的发明。
30.D　31.A　
32.B　different意为“不同的”;similar意为“相似的”;large意为“大的”;small意为“小的”。由后文“I learned that different inventors often invent similar things.”可知,“我”在商店里发现了跟“我”的发明相似的飞机模型,故选B。
33.A　work意为“奏效”;fail意为“失败”;come意为“来”;end意为“结束”。联系常识及下文“Failure is a common part of the inventing.(失败是发明创造中常见的一部分)”可知,并非所有伟大的想法都能奏效。故选A。
34.B　look at意为“看”;look for意为“寻找”;look after意为“照顾,照看”;look through意为“浏览”。联系上下文可知,父亲总是在寻找做简单工作的更好的方法。
35.C
Ⅶ.36—39　CBDB
