There is no doubt that technology has had a big influence on our lives. People from all around the world can now talk to each other almost at once on mobile phones and the Internet. People can easily solve their problems with the help of computers and the world wide web. With this technology, it seems that the world is more connected now than ever before. Even so, there have been worries about technology making people feel lonely and disconnected from others around them.
So does this mean that technology makes us lonely
In my opinion, it is hard to say Yes or No.
It’s true that humans need communication with each other. If we depend on technology too much to communicate, this can badly impact our mental (心理的) health. For me, technology is a tool. And just like any other kind of tool -- like scissors, a pencil or a ruler, for example, it depends on how we use it: in a right way or in a right place. Take social media (社交媒体) as an example. If you only use it to compare yourself with others, you might feel sad and lonely. But if you use it as a tool to connect with friends and family or to start a new community to talk about your hobbies and interests, the loneliness will turn into love and friendship.
When you feel lonely after staring at your computer screen all day, maybe you can use that technology to reach out to a reliable (可靠的) friend and invite him or her out for lunch or a coffee.
26. According to the writer, technology is ________ .
A. a tool B. an influence
C. a pair of scissors D. a way of communication
27. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “impact” in Paqugraph 4
A. 帮助 B. 促进 C. 影响 D. 进入
28. According to the passage, if people use technology too much, people may ________ .
A. sleep less B. live longer C. feel lonely D. get more jobs
29. When we use technology to________ others, we can find love and friendship.
A. argue with B. compete with C. connect with D. compare with
30. What’s the main idea of the passage
A. Social media is important to us. B. Technology can be good and bad to us.
C. People need to communicate with each other. D. Computers and the Internet help us with our work.
C
Sleepwalking(梦游)is when your child gets out of bed and walks around as if he's awake, but he's actually asleep. Sleepwalking doesn't hurt your child, and it usually disappears when the kid grows up.
Sleepwalking happens during deep sleep. Your child might get out of bed and walk around as if he's awake, but he won't respond normally to you or anything around him. This may make you upset. But try not to worry--your child is OK.
In fact, sleepwalking is quite common. 7% to 15% of children sleepwalk, and it doesn't usually mean that there's anything wrong with them. Children aged 4 to 12 are more likely to sleepwalk. Both boys and girls sleepwalk.
Sleepwalking often happens in the first few hours of the night. When it happens, your child's mind is asleep. However, his body is awake at the same time.
Sleepwalking usually has something to do with age and development. However, some things can increase your child's sleepwalking. For example:
Bad habits that cause poor sleep
Fever or some other illnesses
A family history of sleepwalking
Medical conditions that cause poor sleep
If your child is sleepwalking at least once every night, it's best to see a doctor. Also see a doctor if your child's sleepwalking is influencing the sleep of other family members, or if you 're worried your child might hurt himself while sleepwalking.

In modern times, we get our weather report scientifically. The meteorologists(气象学家) use information from satellites (卫星) to tell us what the weather will be like. They make predictions about the weather for today, tomorrow and even for the whole season. Will it rain Will it snow Will it be hot or will it be a long and cold winter
But what did people do before modern technology Well, not so long ago, people lived much closer to nature. Using the power of observation (观察), humans made predictions about the weather according to what was happening in the insect world. Sometimes their predictions were correct, and sometimes they weren’t.
My grandfather spent his whole life as a farmer in Canada. He is long gone now. But I still remember his stories about how to predict the weather. For example, in summer, he would often stop to observe the anthills -- those little sandy mounds (沙堆) at the entrance (入口) to the ants’ nest.
“Look closely at the anthills in July,” Grandpa used to say. “If the anthills are high in July, expect a snowy winter.” Of course, as a kid, I believed my grandfather. But you know what The anthills are often correct. Not always, but often enough to make me a believer.
In September, Grandpa would often point out a woolly caterpillar (毛毛虫) in a sunny location, “Observe the orange circle around its belly (腹部). If it’s wide and full, we’re sure to have a warm and easy winter. If it’s thin, be careful! The winter will be severe.”
I am older now. I get my weather mostly from the television or radio. Scientists hardly get it wrong. After all, they have the latest scientific instruments to help them.
But I still stop to observe the anthills in July, and of course, the woolly caterpillars in September. The older generation (老一辈) can teach us many things. My grandfather was not a meteorologist, but he knew a lot about insects and the weather.
36. ________ can help us predict the weather more correctly.
A. Satellites B. Anthills C. Woolly caterpillars D. Televisions or radios
37. According to Grandpa’s experience, if the anthills are high in July, maybe it will be ________.
A. a rainy winter B. a snowy winter C. a long and cold winter D. a warm and easy winter
38. Which word can replace (替代) the underlined word “severe”
A. hot B. warm C. cool D. cold
39. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks _________.
A. we should only listen to the meteorologists
B. his grandpa knew more than the meteorologists
C. we needn’t observe the insects to predict the weather
D. his grandpa’s ways to predict the weather are still helpful
40. Which would be a good title for this passage
A. The power of observation B. Weather according to insects
C. Weather report in modern times D. Different ways to make predictions

第二部分 写作----范文
Dear Lisa,
I’m glad to hear from you. Now let me tell you something about my favorite song.
What a Beautiful Jasmine is my favorite classical folk song. It is one of the classical folk songs around the world. The song came from Xianhuadiao, which has been sung for centuries. In 1942, He Fang, who was 14 years old, made up the song. The song has been played in some important occasions, such as when Hong Kong and Macao returned to China, the song was played.
I always listen to the song in my free time. The song is sweet and soft, it can make me relaxed. I hope that you can enjoy the beautiful song.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
