备考2023年中考英语时事热点话题题型专练
一、阅读单选
Liu Jichen, a student from Tsinghua University, has developed a WeChat mini program called “Clear Plate”. After a meal, users can open the mini program and take a picture of their empty plates. Once the picture is recognized by the AI, users can collect points and use them to buy gifts or buy charity meals and then send them to children in impoverished rural (贫困的乡村) areas.
In November 2020, Liu and his team, together with other organizations, organized the “Clear Your Plate” program for the third year. It has swept over 1,017 universities across the country.
The one month program attracted almost 1.6 million participants (参加者) and reduced food waste by 862 tons and carbon emissions (碳排放) by 3,337 tons.
The idea to develop such a mini program came from Liu’s experience in a canteen (食堂). In 2017, he found that a restaurant would give dinners who finished off their food a card and offer small gifts after a certain number of cards had been collected.
“Technological innovation (科技创新) is a good way to reduce food waste,”Liu thought. He organized a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017. To solve the AI’s problem of identifying (识别) photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100,000 samples in canteens and restaurants. In 2018, the mini program was officially put into use on Oct. 16, World Food Day.
Thanks to his creative and practical (实际的) actions, Liu, along with the other 16 members was chosen to be the 2020 Class of Young Leaders for the Sustainable Development Goals by the UN Office of the Secretary General’s Envoy on Youth in September.
“There were so many unknowns in research and development. For our team members, the biggest challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it,” Liu said. They not only achieved their goal, but now, the mini-program has more than 5 million registered users, according to Liu. “We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation by encouraging them to cherish (珍惜) their food and develop the habit of thrift (节约),” Liu added.

In recent years, a number of Chinese technological innovations (科技创新) have been making waves around the world. Among them, four stand out. They are known as "four new great inventions of modern China. They have made our daily lives more convenient.
High-speed trains
China created its first high-speed railway line in 2008. Since then, the number of passenger trips has grown by over 30 percent every year. By 2016, more than 5 billion trips had been taken on China's bullet trains(高铁), according to Xinhua News Agency.
China is currently working on the next-generation bullet trains that will have a top speed of 400
kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the country's 150, 000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua.
Mobile payment
Mobile payment is turning China into a "cashless society" led by the third-party payment companies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying by cash, customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices.
Users can also pay their bills through Alipay, such as their water and electricity bills. Alipay also supports cross-border(跨境的)online and in-store payment, which allows users to buy things on international websites and apps.
Shared bikes
Shared bike services started in Western countries. But China has surprised the world with how
quickly it has adopted dockless(无柱的) shared bikes.
Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikes allow users to simply pick up or park a
bike on the street through GPS and smartphone app.
To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app. After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through
mobile payment services.
Online shopping
With around 751 million internet users, China has been the world's largest and fastest-growing line shopping market.
Online shopping now accounts for 15. 5 percent of total retail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costs and fewer licensing requirements(执照要求), it's easier for sellers
to open an online shop in China than a brick-and- mortar shop(实体店).
It also helped to create jobs of rural areas. In 2016, online shopping created more than 20 million jobs in rural areas, with over 8. 1 million running their own online shops, said Xinhua.
6．What is known as "four new great inventions" of modern China
A．GPS, Smartphone apps, High-speed trains and Online shopping.
B．Mobile payment, Shared bikes, Online shopping and High-speed railway network
C．Online shopping, Short password, High-speed railway network and Mobile payment
D．High-speed trains, Mobile payment, Shared bikes and Online shopping
7．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A．After you use shared hikes you can nark them everywhere
B．When users pay their water and electricity bills, they only pay them by cash
C．By 2020, China's 30, 000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains.
D．It easier for sellers to open a brick-and-mortar shop than an online shop in China.
8．The underlined phrase“ accounts for” means______ in Chinese.
A．占……比例 B．是……原因 C．给……解释 D．出……单据
9．From this passage, the writer mostly wants to tell us that_________.
A．Nowadays China has become the most developed country in the world
B．Nowadays China has made much great progress in both science and technology
C．Nowadays China is stronger than any other country in the world

kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the country's 150, 000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua.
Mobile payment
Mobile payment is turning China into a "cashless society" led by the third-party payment companies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying by cash, customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices.

quickly it has adopted dockless(无柱的) shared bikes.
Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikes allow users to simply pick up or park a
bike on the street through GPS and smartphone app.
To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app. After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through
mobile payment services.
Online shopping
With around 751 million internet users, China has been the world's largest and fastest-growing line shopping market.
Online shopping now accounts for 15. 5 percent of total retail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costs and fewer licensing requirements(执照要求), it's easier for sellers
to open an online shop in China than a brick-and- mortar shop(实体店).
