To the book lovers, nothing beats walking through a bookshop and looking at all the covers, picking large heavy books up and turning them over, the smell of ink on paper, conversations with strangers about authors.With the coming of the online book buying and e-books, many have predicted that the bookstores will disappear.And we're grateful that there are plenty of beautiful bookstores still out there.
El Ateneo Grand Splendid
Designed for Max Glücksmann, a pioneer of the music and film industries, this wonderful theatre space was opened in 1919.The former theatre now serves as a flagship bookstore; more than 1 million people visit El Ateneo Grand Splendid every year.
The Book Barge
The Book Barge is a 60-foot canal boat bookshop.Inspired by the Slow Food movement, the operator Sarah Henshaw says, “We hope to help develop a less hurried lifestyle of leisurely pleasures, cups of tea, conversations, culture and something like these.”
Selexyz Dominicanen
For those who regard bookstores with great respect, welcome to Selexyz Dominicanen, which now offers many kinds of books.The big space was used to store bicycles not long ago.But then the building was given interior （内部的） decoration, and the result is really a great surprise.
La Caverne aux Livres
Few things make as romantic a pairing as books and trains.At La Caverne aux Livres in Auvers-sur-Oise, a commune in the northwestern suburbs of Paris, an old postal train station and several train cars have become home to used books for sale.Visitors often spend hours looking at them, surrounded by an atmosphere of old letters and dreams of faraway places.

Writing a book is a long and challenging process, but new technology is increasingly making it easier for authors to finish their books.
Michael Green, a US data scientist-turned-novelist, felt that technology could help him simplify the writing process when he was in the middle of writing his debut （首部） book.
He said that the process had become difficult to manage.“In the midst of editing, I got to the point where I started feeling like I had a lot of plots and characters,” he told the BBC.
“I had all these documents on the deeper aspects of the world I was creating.I was worried about being able to keep track of it all.That's when I switched to my more data science-minded approach to solving a complex problem with a lot of different pieces.”
Green went on to create Lynit, a digital platform to help authors plan and weave together the many elements that form a story, such as themes, characters, and major events.
“As the author gets a new idea that they want to bring into the story, they are able to input it into a natural framework,” he told the BBC.“Piece by piece, they're adding to the story.As new ideas come in, they change, maybe by creating new nodes （节点） or interactions, new relationships.”
Once the book has been published, technology is also playing an ever-increasing role in publicity and connecting with readers.Websites and apps from specialist firms allow authors to participate in live question-and-answer sessions with their audience.
Another tech firm, Crazy Maple Studios in California, US, offers authors four apps that can add music, animations, sound effects and in some cases, gameplay.
Michael Green believes technology will become even more important as a new generation of tech-savvy （精通科技的） writers becomes more well-known.
“What I'm finding with the Generation Z and even younger writers is that they're looking for technology to give them guidance,” he told the BBC.“They see it as a tool to learn and grow with, rather than extra work.”
【语篇导读】本文主要介绍了科技是如何让作家在写作过程中从组织规划人物故事情节等方面受益的。

B
A.He would leave out important plots.
B.He had trouble organising his thoughts.

D.He was afraid the characters wouldn't appeal to readers.
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的He said that the process had become difficult to manage.和In the midst of editing, I got to the point where I started feeling like I had a lot of plots and characters可知，格林感觉自己小说中的角色和情节太多，难以厘清思路。由此可推知，在写作过程中，他在构思方面遇到了困难。故选B项。
2.How does technology help bring authors closer to their readers ( )
A
A.It creates certain websites and apps. B.It can generate images based on words.
C.It creates new relationships for the story. D.It can translate thoughts into sentences.
解析 细节理解题。根据第七段内容可知，新科技通过一些网站和应用程序拉近了作家与读者的距离。故选A项。
3.Which of the following would Green most probably agree with ( )
D
A.Technology gets in the way of creativity. B.Younger writers become more well-known.
C.Technology adds to the burden of authors. D.Young writers enjoy growing with technology.
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的What I'm finding with the Generation Z and even younger writers is that they're looking for technology to give them guidance和“They see it as a tool to learn and grow with, rather than extra work.”可推知，格林认为年轻作家喜欢在成长的路上与科技相伴。故选D项。

C
A.To give advice on how to write a book. B.To encourage the use of technology in writing.
C.To share how new technology benefits authors.

of benefits of this approach.

background noise.2. ..
D
F
A sense of responsibility
One 2018 study found that an incredible 97% of employees would like a flexible job.3. ..No one
likes commuting, and remote working allows people to improve their work-life balance.It lets them

and it gives them a greater sense of responsibility.All means that staff who can work remotely are
happier and more likely to stay at your business.
B
Money saving
From your company's financial perspective, a benefit of remote CAD working is money
saving.4. ..What's more, if your employees provide their own computers and you use an affordable-cost
cloud-based CAD platform, your expenses are even lower.

Imagine your company found an ideal designer for your next project, but he/she lives on the other

This simple little device is helping to deal with one of the most annoying symptoms of Parkinson's disease—and its creators have just been awarded more than one million dollars.
Danish businesswoman Lise Pape was inspired to develop the Path Finder device after her own father developed Parkinson's disease in 2014.The device, which is attached to a patient's shoe and shines a laser onto the floor, helps to prevent “freezing of the gait （步态）”: a common symptom of the Parkinson's disease which makes the patient feel as if they are unable to walk.
“People describe it as this feeling of being glued to the floor and being unable to step forward with their feet, despite having the intention to do so,” said Pape.“In fact, 70% of all falls with Parkinson's disease are thought to be due to this symptom.”
Surprisingly, researchers have found that it is easy for patients to avoid this symptom if they have a visual pattern for them to follow as they walk.That's why Pape designed the Path Finder laser pointer to display a bright green line in front of the wearer's feet.
Not only do studies show that the laser device helps to reduce the frequency of freezing episodes, they also show that the Path Finder reduces the length of the episodes as well.
Since Pape founded her Walk With Path company in 2017, the devices have been given to individuals and healthcare systems in Norway, Denmark, Canada, and the UK.Carlos Moedas, former European Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation, said, “This device makes a real difference for senior citizens by helping them maintain an active social life as well as their independence.”
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。利塞·佩普的父亲患有帕金森病，因此她决定研究一款可以帮助帕金森病患者的装置，于是“Path Finder”诞生了。这个小小的仪器安装在患者的鞋子上，利用激光发射器在患者的脚前照射出一道绿光，通过这样的视觉引导来预防步态冻结发作，辅助患者行走。
1.What made Lise Pape decide to invent the Path Finder ( )
A
A.Her father's Parkinson's disease. B.Her father's expectations of her.
C.Her desire to win the one million dollars. D.Her passion for invention.

More than a billion people around the world have smartphones, almost all of which come with some kinds of navigation apps such as Apple Maps or Amap.This raises the age-old questions when we use any technology: What abilities is our brain losing due to these apps But also, importantly: What abilities are we gaining
Talking with people who are good at finding their ways around or good at using paper maps, I often hear a lot of complaints about digital maps.North and south get messed up, and you can see only a small section at a time.I can really understand that it may be quite disturbing for those who are already skilled at using paper maps but limited to a small phone screen.
But consider what digital navigation aids have meant for someone like me.Although being a frequent traveller, I'm so terrible at finding my way that I still use Apple Maps almost every day in the small town where I have lived for many years.
In many places, street names and house numbers can be meaningful, and instructions such as “go north for three blocks and then west” make sense to those familiar with these rules.In Istanbul, however, where I grew up, none of those hold true.For one thing, the locals seldom use street names.Besides, the city is full of winding and ancient alleys （小巷） that cross with newer avenues at many angles.In such places, you'd better turn to the locals.In the countryside, however, there is often nobody outside to ask.In fact, using the navigation apps feels like a fairy grandmother whispering directions in my ear.Since then, I have travelled with a lot more confidence, and my world has opened up.
This brings me back to my original questions: While we often lose some skills after depending on new technology, it may also allow us to gain new abilities.Maybe when technology closes a door, we should also look for the doors it opens.

解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Talking with people who are good at finding their ways around or good at using paper maps, I often hear a lot of complaints about digital maps.North and south get messed up, and you can see only a small section at a time.可知，擅长使用纸质地图的人对电子地图有许多不满，是因为电子地图中的方向不容易被分辨，让人觉得混乱。故选C项。
2.According to the text, which is the best way to find the destination in Istanbul ( )
A
A.Asking local people the way. B.Following the navigation apps.
C.Getting familiar with the city rules. D.Looking for street names and house numbers.
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中的In such places, you'd better turn to the locals.可知，在伊斯坦布尔这样的地方，你最好向当地人问路。故选A项。
3.What's the author's attitude towards the navigation apps ( )
D
A.Sceptical. B.Ambiguous. C.Critical. D.Favourable.
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的But consider what digital navigation aids have meant for someone like me.以及第四段中的In fact, using the navigation apps feels like a fairy grandmother whispering directions in my ear.Since then, I have travelled with a lot more confidence, and my world has opened up.可推知，作者对导航应用程序持支持的态度。故选D项。
【方法总结】
解答态度倾向推断题
（1）寻找文中具有感彩的形容词、副词或动词，根据作者使用词语的褒贬性去判断作者的态度。
（2）作者的观点一般与文章主旨相关联，因此可以通过论述的主线及举例的方式来判断作者的态度。
（3）多注意文章开头、结尾等传达作者感情倾向的部分。
（4）不要混淆作者引用的别人的观点与作者自己的观点。
（5）不要掺杂个人观点。
4.What could be the best title for the passage ( )
B
A.Benefits of Navigation Apps B.Have Navigation Apps Worsened Our Brain
C.My World Opens Up by New Technology D.Disadvantages of Navigation Apps
解析 主旨大意题。第一段作者提出问题：What abilities is our brain losing due to these apps But also, importantly: What abilities are we gaining 第二段作者简单介绍导航应用程序的负面评价，接下来重点介绍导航应用程序积极的一面，并在最后一段得出结论： While we often lose some skills after depending on new technology, it may also allow us to gain new abilities.Maybe when technology closes a door, we should also look for the doors it opens.，综上，本文主要是对导航应用程序是否会让我们的大脑缺失某些功能的探讨。故B项（导航应用程序让我们的大脑变得更差了吗？）最适合作为本文标题。

Wind turbines （风力涡轮机） and solar panels that generate electricity are examples of green technology.A new study finds that such renewable energy might be green in another sense.Large collections of those wind turbines or solar panels appear capable of bringing rains to the desert and would allow more plants to grow.
Building large wind or solar farms just to study their questions was not an option.It would be too costly.So experts Kalnay and Safa developed a model of North Africa's Sahara Desert to find out how wind and solar farms might alter the desert's climate.
The team ran its model several times.In one run, it assumed that people would set up wind farms only.Another run assumed people would install just solar farms.A third one assumed people would build both.They would affect the desert's weather with temperature and average daily rain increased—but differently.Installing a mix of solar panels and wind turbines brought about a bigger change—not in
temperature but in rainfall.In the Sahara, after building both wind and solar farms, the amount of rain that fell has more than doubled, up to 215.4 millimetres per day.
The models predicted that the average rainfall would increase over time, as more plants grew.Plants move water from the ground to the air.Warmer air can carry more water.So as this kind of air rises, it can ferry more water up to become clouds.Those clouds can release rain, relieving the thirst of plants below.Over time, this process repeats itself over and over.This positive feedback can greatly boost the rains.
“Such rainfall changes could lead to better agriculture,” says Safa.“More rain would also help wild plants grow.We believe that the countries in the Sahara should seriously consider investing in wind and solar power,” he added.

1.__________
discovery
解析 设空处作made的宾语，且根据空前的不定冠词a可知，此处应填可数名词单数，故填discovery。
2.______________
had been seen
解析 “it was+时间段+since从句”结构中，从句用过去完成时，表示“过去的过去”，且动词see和从句的主语the creature之间是被动关系，应用被动语态。故填had been seen。
3.________
recently
解析 此处表示“最近；近来”，应用副词作时间状语，修饰整个句子。故填recently。
4._______
called
解析 此处作后置定语修饰前面的名词短语，call和所修饰名词短语a kind of fungus之间是逻辑上的被动关系，设空处应用过去分词。故填called。
5.________
harmful
解析 根据空前的系动词is以及副词especially可知，此处应填形容词，在从句中作表语，be harmful to… 意为“对……有害”。故填harmful。
6._______
which
解析 设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个主句，从句中缺少主语，应用关系代词which。
7.______
more
解析 句意为：自从发现了第一只明多斑足蟾，研究小组又发现了另外的五只。此处表示“另外的；更多的”，故填more。
8._____
with
解析 together with是固定搭配，意为“和……一起”。故填with。
9.___
a
解析 句意为：每次生物再次出现都是又给我们一次机会去找到更好的保护方式。a second chance表示“又一次机会”，故填a。
10.________
to save
解析 句意为：我们并不是每天都有机会拯救我们认为已经灭绝的物种。此处作后置定语修饰前面的名词opportunity，opportunity后常用动词不定式作后置定语，故填to save。

Then the old woman introduced herself. “My name is Betty. I'm originally from Poland, but left there when I was thirteen. And I have been living here in Washington, D.C. in America ever since.” Eliza could not believe it, stories of her grandmother's best friend floating into her mind. She assumed that the old woman must be her grandmother's best friend. She said, “Betty, would you mind coming with me right now I need to show you somebody.”
The old woman agreed. Soon they left the restaurant after dinner. Arriving at Scout's home, the old woman eagerly rang the doorbell. The moment Scout opened the door, she froze to the ground.She was amazed to see her childhood friend standing in front of her. How magical! The scarf indeed brought them good luck. Excited and moved, they hugged each other tightly and both of them burst into tears. They hadn't seen each other for many years and had many things to share.
