On September 5, 2020, almost 800,000 fans worldwide crowded into American magician and endurance artist David Blaine's YouTube channel to witness his first major live event since2012. Called Ascension, the stunt(特技) involved Blaine strapping himself to 52 colorful helium balloons and flying into the clear blue skies above Arizona's Great Basin Desert.
"I want to go up and become a tiny dot in the sky." the adventurer told a reporter in the New York Post before the event.
The stuntman achieved his goal by soaring almost five miles before letting go of the balloons. Blaine then dropped down at a heart-stopping speed of over a hundred miles per hour before pulling the strings on his parachute. After skillfully steering back to Earth and making a picturing-perfect landing on his feet, a delighted Blaine said, "Wow! That was awesome."
Blaine, who announced his intention to perform the stunt on August 12, 2020, originally planed to use the helium balloons to float across the Hudson River from New Jersey to New York, on August 31, 2020. However, a severe storm in New York forced him to change both the performance date and the scheduled location.
Though the stuntman made the balloon "flight" look easy, he spent years preparing for the big event. This included becoming a hot air balloonist and skydiver and conducting over 500jumps before finally attempting the daring flight.
This is not the first time Blaine has impressed the world with his endurance stunts. His previous antics(荒唐行为) include wearing a Faraday bodysuit and helmet-—both designed to conduct electricity—and getting jolted by million-volt Tesla coils for three days! The adventurer has also put himself inside a block of ice for more than an hour, stood for 35 hours above a 100-foot-high, 22-inch pillar in New York's Bryant Park, and suspended himself in a box over London's River Thames for 44 days, with no food and only 4.5 liters of water!
4、Where did the fans enjoy the whole process of the stunt
A. On the spot. B. On the Internet.
C.In a TV program. D. In a newspaper.
5、What can we infer according to Paragraph 3
A. Blaine flew about five miles at a fast speed.
B. Blaine landed on Earth safely with the balloons.
C. Blaine experienced a breath-taking fall during the stunt.
D. Blaine solved some troubles before pulling on his parachute.
6、What made Blaine change his original plan
A.The bad weather. B. The improper date.
C.A crowded location. D. An official requirement.
7、What words can best describe David Blaine
A. Learned and humorous. B. Gifted and aggressive.
C. Persistent and brave. D. Stubborn and strong.
Plastic remains one of the most-used materials for making many of the things we use in our everyday lives. Things made of plastic can be very strong and last a long time. They also do well in extreme heat and cold. Plastic is also much lighter than metal and can easily be formed into different shapes. This makes the material ideal for countless uses across many different industries.
But the widespread use of plastics across the world is causing major problems for the environment. Plastic material is flooding landfills and causing severe damage in the world's oceans. Plastics can take hundreds of years to break down on their own. It has been estimated that even the most reusable kinds of plastic can only be recycled at a rate of 20 to 30 percent. Even when recycling is possible, the process is costly, can use a lot of energy and, in many cases, produces poor-quality materials.
But a team of researchers working at the U.S. Department of Energy says it has created a kind of plastic that could lead to products that are 100 percent recyclable. The team recently reported the discovery in a study in the journal Nature Chemistry. The researchers say the new material is a plastic polymer(聚合物) called polydiketoenamine, or PDK. The team reports that the material can be broken down in parts at the molecular level. It can then be built up again to form plastics of different shapes, textures, colors and more. The researchers say this process can be repeated over and over again—without the plastic material losing any performance or quality.
Brett Helms is a scientist who worked on the study. He said, "Then we would be able to more effectively divert plastic from landfills and the oceans." "This is an exciting time to start thinking about how to design both materials and recycling facilities to enable circular plastics." he added.
8、What is the feature of plastic according to Paragraph1
A. Light and cold. B. Easy to break down.
C. Firm and changeable. D. Colorful and endurable.
9、What do we know about plastic products
A. Few are highly recycled. B. They have quality problems.
C. They are environmentally friendly. D. The process of recycling is cheap.
10、What is Helms' attitude to the new plastic
A. Doubtful B.Optimistic C.Indifferent D. Negative.
11、Where does the text probably come from
A. A science fiction B. A research plan
C. A medical report D. A science magazine.
A number of people hold an optimistic attitude toward artificial intelligence's ability to reshape education nowadays. However, many feel such claims are overblown.
Kentaro Toyama, a professor at the University of Michigan School of Information, is one of those doubtful about the idea of using Al in the classroom.
Toyama mentioned a situation he encountered while working in an after-school programin digital literacy(数字技术素养). He said, "In trying to teach students to use technology, the greatest difficulty is the technology itself." As soon as he looked away from the students, they would "very quickly find the most fun games they could find on the computer and start playing them". That reveals the problem with putting too much faith in AI for teaching. "There is great potential for it to be a distraction." he said.
Toyama once surveyed a large group of people about their preference for the following educational situations: a school with no teachers but powerful AI, one with bad teachers but strong computers, one with good teachers but no computers, or one with great teachers and many computers. The result showed that nobody would send their children to a school with powerful AI but no teachers, or one with bad teachers but strong computers. Toyama concluded, "Good teachers are what matters; everything else is secondary compared to that."
Toyama is also concerned that AI and technology may widen the gap between disadvantaged schools and wealthier schools. He said, "In the case of schools, well-resourced schools will find the best ways to use technology. But if you're in a school district that is underfunded and parents are not involved, it doesn't make a difference how good the technology is, and it will not turn that situation around."
When asked when schools should adopt AI, Toyama suggested that they should wait until the basics are in place, teachers want it, and the technology is proved to have positive educational values.
12、What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to
A.AI B.Faith C.Teaching D. Computer
13、Why does the author mention the survey in Paragraph 4
A. To emphasize the key factor in education.
B.To recommend his favorite school for parents.
C.To compare the differences between AI and teachers.
D. To prove that preference for schools varies among people.
14、Which of the following statements will Toyama probably agree with
A. AI has the potential to reshape teaching and learning.
B. A good school should put students and technology first.
C. AI will be able to educate students as well as real teachers.
D. AI and technology may unbalance educational resources.
15、What is the best title of the text
A. AI Reshapes Education B. Using AI in the Classroom
C. Will AI Dominate School D. AI and Technology

三、完形填空（15空）
I was informed that my four-grade daughter was not going to make it to the fifth grade. The teacher said, "She may not be 1 what we're trying to accomplish." He was actually saying she didn't have the 2 . I got mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known I was smart when I was 3 in school. We had her tested and found that the trouble she was having was dyslexia-difficulty in reading, which was 4 what I had had. By then I was a successful television writer, and had 5 an Emmy Award for "The Rockford Files."

No. I don't overcome it, but just switch to something within my 8 . Some easy things are very hard for me. Most people who go through college 9 twice as fast as I do. I avoid 10 a phone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three times to get the number right.

The real fear I have for dyslexic children is not that they 14 in school, but that they will quit on themselves before they get out of school. Parents have to create 15 for them, whether it's in music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, "Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other things I can do."

"Hi! How are you " The woman smiled as she took the seat beside me. She had to lower herself slowly, squeezing her body into the seat, filling all available space. Positioning herself comfortably, she dropped her enormous arm on our common armrest. Her giant body filled the space around us, shrinking me and my seat into insignificance. I shrank and moved a little towards the window.
She leaned towards me and repeated her greeting in a friendly voice. Her face towered above my head, forcing me to turn to look at her. "Hi." I replied with obvious disgust.
I turned away to stare out of the cabin window, annoyed about the long hours of discomfort I was going to experience with this monster" beside me. She nudged me with her meaty arm. "My name is Laura. I'm from Britain. How about you Japan " "Malaysia!" I barked. "I'm so sorry! Will you accept my heartfelt apology Come, shake my hand. If we're going to spend six hours side-by-side on this flight, we'd better be friends, don't you think so " A palm waved in front of my face. I shook the hand reluctantly, still silent.
Laura started a conversation with me, taking no notice of my unfriendly reactions. She talked excitedly about herself and her trip to New York to see her friends. She talked about a list of things she was going to buy for her students in the boarding school where she was teaching.
I gave her one-word answers to her questions about me. She nodded as she made appreciative comments to my answers. Her voice was warm and caring. She was considerate and obliging when we were served drinks and meals, making sure that I had room in my seat. "I don't want to offend you with my elephant size!" she said with sincerity.
Paragraph 1:
To my surprise, her face which bothered me hours before, now opened into extraordinary smiles, lively and calm at the same time.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
By the end of flight, almost half the cabin crew was standing near the aisle by us, laughing and joking with Laura.

34、答案：
To my surprise, her face which rejected me hours before, now opened into extraordinary smiles, lively and calm at the same time. I couldn't help but let down my guard slowly. Laura was an interesting conversationalist. She was well-read in many subjects from philosophy to science. She turned a seemingly unimportant subject into something to explore and understand. Her comments were humorous and inspirational. When our topic turned to cultures, I was pleasantly surprised by her intelligent remarks and analyses. During our conversation, Laura managed to make every cabin crew who served us walk away laughing at her jokes.
By the end of the flight, almost half the cabin crew was standing near the aisle by us, laughing and joking with Laura. Laura was the center of attention, filling the cabin with delightful warmth. When we waved goodbye to each other at the arrival lounge at New York airport, I watched her walking towards a big group of adoring adults and kids. Cheers sounded as the group hugged and kissed Laura. She turned around and smiled at me. I was cheered up, as the realization set in: Laura was the warmest and most easy-going woman I had ever met in my life.

On September 5, 2020, almost 800,000 fans worldwide crowded into American magician and endurance artist David Blaine's YouTube channel to witness his first major live event since2012. Called Ascension, the stunt(特技) involved Blaine strapping himself to 52 colorful helium balloons and flying into the clear blue skies above Arizona's Great Basin Desert.
"I want to go up and become a tiny dot in the sky." the adventurer told a reporter in the New York Post before the event.
The stuntman achieved his goal by soaring almost five miles before letting go of the balloons. Blaine then dropped down at a heart-stopping speed of over a hundred miles per hour before pulling the strings on his parachute. After skillfully steering back to Earth and making a picturing-perfect landing on his feet, a delighted Blaine said, "Wow! That was awesome."
Blaine, who announced his intention to perform the stunt on August 12, 2020, originally planed to use the helium balloons to float across the Hudson River from New Jersey to New York, on August 31, 2020. However, a severe storm in New York forced him to change both the performance date and the scheduled location.
Though the stuntman made the balloon "flight" look easy, he spent years preparing for the big event. This included becoming a hot air balloonist and skydiver and conducting over 500jumps before finally attempting the daring flight.
This is not the first time Blaine has impressed the world with his endurance stunts. His previous antics(荒唐行为) include wearing a Faraday bodysuit and helmet-—both designed to conduct electricity—and getting jolted by million-volt Tesla coils for three days! The adventurer has also put himself inside a block of ice for more than an hour, stood for 35 hours above a 100-foot-high, 22-inch pillar in New York's Bryant Park, and suspended himself in a box over London's River Thames for 44 days, with no food and only 4.5 liters of water!
4、Where did the fans enjoy the whole process of the stunt
A. On the spot. B. On the Internet.
C.In a TV program. D. In a newspaper.
5、What can we infer according to Paragraph 3
A. Blaine flew about five miles at a fast speed.
B. Blaine landed on Earth safely with the balloons.
C. Blaine experienced a breath-taking fall during the stunt.
D. Blaine solved some troubles before pulling on his parachute.
6、What made Blaine change his original plan
A.The bad weather. B. The improper date.
C.A crowded location. D. An official requirement.
7、What words can best describe David Blaine
A. Learned and humorous. B. Gifted and aggressive.
C. Persistent and brave. D. Stubborn and strong.
Plastic remains one of the most-used materials for making many of the things we use in our everyday lives. Things made of plastic can be very strong and last a long time. They also do well in extreme heat and cold. Plastic is also much lighter than metal and can easily be formed into different shapes. This makes the material ideal for countless uses across many different industries.
But the widespread use of plastics across the world is causing major problems for the environment. Plastic material is flooding landfills and causing severe damage in the world's oceans. Plastics can take hundreds of years to break down on their own. It has been estimated that even the most reusable kinds of plastic can only be recycled at a rate of 20 to 30 percent. Even when recycling is possible, the process is costly, can use a lot of energy and, in many cases, produces poor-quality materials.
But a team of researchers working at the U.S. Department of Energy says it has created a kind of plastic that could lead to products that are 100 percent recyclable. The team recently reported the discovery in a study in the journal Nature Chemistry. The researchers say the new material is a plastic polymer(聚合物) called polydiketoenamine, or PDK. The team reports that the material can be broken down in parts at the molecular level. It can then be built up again to form plastics of different shapes, textures, colors and more. The researchers say this process can be repeated over and over again—without the plastic material losing any performance or quality.
Brett Helms is a scientist who worked on the study. He said, "Then we would be able to more effectively divert plastic from landfills and the oceans." "This is an exciting time to start thinking about how to design both materials and recycling facilities to enable circular plastics." he added.
8、What is the feature of plastic according to Paragraph1
A. Light and cold. B. Easy to break down.
C. Firm and changeable. D. Colorful and endurable.
9、What do we know about plastic products
A. Few are highly recycled. B. They have quality problems.
C. They are environmentally friendly. D. The process of recycling is cheap.
10、What is Helms' attitude to the new plastic
A. Doubtful B.Optimistic C.Indifferent D. Negative.
11、Where does the text probably come from
A. A science fiction B. A research plan
C. A medical report D. A science magazine.
A number of people hold an optimistic attitude toward artificial intelligence's ability to reshape education nowadays. However, many feel such claims are overblown.
Kentaro Toyama, a professor at the University of Michigan School of Information, is one of those doubtful about the idea of using Al in the classroom.
Toyama mentioned a situation he encountered while working in an after-school programin digital literacy(数字技术素养). He said, "In trying to teach students to use technology, the greatest difficulty is the technology itself." As soon as he looked away from the students, they would "very quickly find the most fun games they could find on the computer and start playing them". That reveals the problem with putting too much faith in AI for teaching. "There is great potential for it to be a distraction." he said.
Toyama once surveyed a large group of people about their preference for the following educational situations: a school with no teachers but powerful AI, one with bad teachers but strong computers, one with good teachers but no computers, or one with great teachers and many computers. The result showed that nobody would send their children to a school with powerful AI but no teachers, or one with bad teachers but strong computers. Toyama concluded, "Good teachers are what matters; everything else is secondary compared to that."
Toyama is also concerned that AI and technology may widen the gap between disadvantaged schools and wealthier schools. He said, "In the case of schools, well-resourced schools will find the best ways to use technology. But if you're in a school district that is underfunded and parents are not involved, it doesn't make a difference how good the technology is, and it will not turn that situation around."
When asked when schools should adopt AI, Toyama suggested that they should wait until the basics are in place, teachers want it, and the technology is proved to have positive educational values.
12、What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to
A.AI B.Faith C.Teaching D. Computer
13、Why does the author mention the survey in Paragraph 4
A. To emphasize the key factor in education.
B.To recommend his favorite school for parents.
C.To compare the differences between AI and teachers.
D. To prove that preference for schools varies among people.
14、Which of the following statements will Toyama probably agree with
A. AI has the potential to reshape teaching and learning.
B. A good school should put students and technology first.
C. AI will be able to educate students as well as real teachers.
D. AI and technology may unbalance educational resources.
15、What is the best title of the text
A. AI Reshapes Education B. Using AI in the Classroom
C. Will AI Dominate School D. AI and Technology

"Hi! How are you " The woman smiled as she took the seat beside me. She had to lower herself slowly, squeezing her body into the seat, filling all available space. Positioning herself comfortably, she dropped her enormous arm on our common armrest. Her giant body filled the space around us, shrinking me and my seat into insignificance. I shrank and moved a little towards the window.
She leaned towards me and repeated her greeting in a friendly voice. Her face towered above my head, forcing me to turn to look at her. "Hi." I replied with obvious disgust.
I turned away to stare out of the cabin window, annoyed about the long hours of discomfort I was going to experience with this monster" beside me. She nudged me with her meaty arm. "My name is Laura. I'm from Britain. How about you Japan " "Malaysia!" I barked. "I'm so sorry! Will you accept my heartfelt apology Come, shake my hand. If we're going to spend six hours side-by-side on this flight, we'd better be friends, don't you think so " A palm waved in front of my face. I shook the hand reluctantly, still silent.
Laura started a conversation with me, taking no notice of my unfriendly reactions. She talked excitedly about herself and her trip to New York to see her friends. She talked about a list of things she was going to buy for her students in the boarding school where she was teaching.
I gave her one-word answers to her questions about me. She nodded as she made appreciative comments to my answers. Her voice was warm and caring. She was considerate and obliging when we were served drinks and meals, making sure that I had room in my seat. "I don't want to offend you with my elephant size!" she said with sincerity.

To my surprise, her face which bothered me hours before, now opened into extraordinary smiles, lively and calm at the same time.

34、答案：
To my surprise, her face which rejected me hours before, now opened into extraordinary smiles, lively and calm at the same time. I couldn't help but let down my guard slowly. Laura was an interesting conversationalist. She was well-read in many subjects from philosophy to science. She turned a seemingly unimportant subject into something to explore and understand. Her comments were humorous and inspirational. When our topic turned to cultures, I was pleasantly surprised by her intelligent remarks and analyses. During our conversation, Laura managed to make every cabin crew who served us walk away laughing at her jokes.
By the end of the flight, almost half the cabin crew was standing near the aisle by us, laughing and joking with Laura. Laura was the center of attention, filling the cabin with delightful warmth. When we waved goodbye to each other at the arrival lounge at New York airport, I watched her walking towards a big group of adoring adults and kids. Cheers sounded as the group hugged and kissed Laura. She turned around and smiled at me. I was cheered up, as the realization set in: Laura was the warmest and most easy-going woman I had ever met in my life.
