Futurologists(未来学家) predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields of activity,from entertainment to technology.First of all,it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050.Instead,people will choose a programme from a “menu(菜单)” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television.Today,we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometres away.By 2050,music,films,programmes,newspapers and books will come to us by computer.We will also be able to see,smell and touch the things that we see on television.
In transport,cars will run on new,clean “gas” and they will go very fast.Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents.Today,many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are.By 2050,the computer will control the car and drive it to where you want to go.Space planes will fly all over the world and people will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
In technology,robots will have replaced people in factories.Many factories already use robots.Big companies prefer robots—they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike,and they work 24 hours a day.By 2050,we will see robots everywhere—in factories,schools,offices,hospitals,shops and homes.
Last but not least,medicine technology will have conquered many diseases.By 2050,we will be able to help blind and deaf people see again and hear again.Scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look,how they behave and how much intelligence they have.

Thirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends—532,actually,if you count up both her Instagram followers and online friends.And she spends a lot of time with them.
But is it possible that Kaylee’s online friendships could be making her lonely That’s what some experts believe.Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch,they say.However,some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendships.
Could this be true During your parents’ childhoods,connecting with friends usually means spending time with them in the flesh.Kids played Scrabble around a table,not Words With Friends on their phones.When friends missed each other,they picked up the telephone.Friends might even write letters to each other.
Today,most communication takes place online.A typical teen sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen.Much of this time is spent on social media platforms.
In fact,in many ways,online communication can make friendships stronger.“There’s definitely a positive influence.Kids can stay in constant contact,which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,”says Katie,co-author of The App Generation.
Other experts,however,warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendships.“If we are constantly checking in with our virtual worlds,we will have little time for our real world friendships,”says Rosen,a professor at California State University.
Rosen also worries that today’s kids might mistake the “friends” on the social media for true friends in life.However,in tough times,you don’t need someone to like your picture or share your twitter.You need someone who can keep your secrets and hold your hand.You would like to talk face to face.
4.What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A.To summarise the text.
B.To tell about true friends.
C.To bring up a discussion.
D.To encourage online dating.
5.What is Katie’s attitude towards online communication
A.Worried. B.Optimistic.
C.Confused. D.Unconcerned.
6.What view does Rosen hold
A.It’s wise to turn to friends online.
B.It’s easier to develop friendships in reality.
C.Social media helps people stay closely connected.
D.Busy online communication may affect real-world friendships.
7.Where can you find the former generations’ approach of communication
A.In Paragraph 6. B.In Paragraph 5.
C.In Paragraph 4. D.In Paragraph 3.
三、语篇填空
In many places like Britain and Italy,if you leave the house without your wallet,you’ll be in a tough situation all day.But in China,you can enjoy your day just 1. a smartphone.
The other day,I set out 2.　　　　　(see) how far a phone would get me in the country’s capital.Admittedly,I was surprised to discover how 3.　　　　　　(convenience) it was.
I used my phone to call a taxi to meet my Chinese friend,Gu Yu,4.　　　　　 would guide me to get around Beijing.We paid for breakfast by 5.　　　　　　 (scan) a QR code on the window of a restaurant selling jianbing,one of China’s most popular street breakfasts.My purchase cost 6 yuan and 6.　　　　　(take) just a few seconds.At a nearby coffee shop,7.　　　　　(it) owner scanned a QR code on my phone.As we sipped our coffee,Gu Yu paid her household water bill.She used the same simple process to pay other bills and even her rent.We also paid by phone for movie tickets,takeout food and to shop for goods for 8.(deliver).

一、1.答案:explore the unknown world
2.答案:That’s because she was ill
3.答案:amazing achievements
4.答案:became alive
5.答案:Keep track of
二、1.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的“Big companies prefer robots—they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike,and they work 24 hours a day.”可知,有些大公司喜欢用机器人是因为机器人不要求加薪,也不去罢工,而且它们每天工作24小时。由此可推知人类工人是与此相反的,再结合选项可知应选A项。
2.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“...medicine technology will have conquered many diseases.”可知,未来人们会更健康、更长寿。
3.答案:C
解析:观点态度题。作者在叙述未来生活各个领域的变化时,给予了积极的评价,如clean,in just two hours,prefer,conquer等词汇的应用,体现了作者积极乐观的态度。因此选C项。
4.答案:C
解析:写作意图题。第一段提到13岁的Kaylee有很多朋友(包括一些网友),接下来第二段第一句设问她这样的网络友谊是否会让她觉得孤独。由此判断第一段是为了引出下文对于这一话题的讨论,故C项正确。
5.答案:B
解析:观点态度题。根据第五段Katie说的话“孩子们可以保持联系,这意味着他们能彼此分享更多的情感”以及句中的“positive influence”可知,她对网络交友是持乐观肯定态度的,故B项正确。
6.答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第六段Rosen说的话“我们很少有时间维持真正的友谊”可知,她认为忙碌的网络交流可能会影响我们真实世界的友谊,故D项正确。
7.答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据题干中的关键词“former generations’ approach of communication”,寻查文章
可发现文章第三段提到的是父辈的沟通方式,故D项正确。

6.took　7.its　8.delivery　9.a　10.mostly
四、参考范文
With the development of information technology,the Internet has a greater effect on people’s life.On one hand,it enables us to do things more quickly,and brings us much more convenience as well.But on the other hand,it does harm to some teenagers’ health.They become so addicted to it that they can’t focus on what they are supposed to do,which makes their parents and teachers concerned.In my opinion,we should use it in a proper way.
