If your hometown were to be pulled down one day, would you miss it And what could you do for it Huang Yongfu gave his answer.
Huang and his wife lived in a village. After he stopped working in the 1970s, Huang had a lot of free time. He started painting lovely animals on the walls of his house for fun. Later, his neighbors asked him to paint their houses, too. His paintbrush brought a second “life” to the boring houses.
In 1998, the village was to be pulled down because many villagers left. To save it, Huang decided to paint every street in the village. The old man covered every street, wall and door in the village with lovely colors.
In 2010, some university students happened to pass by the village. They were struck by Huang’s cute artwork. These students then started the “Save Rainbow Village” campaign (运动). It was a success and the area became an art park. Huang himself began to be famous as Grandpa Rainbow. Now, Rainbow Village has become a famous place for tourists. It welcomes more than a million people every year. Grandpa Rainbow finally made his dream come true. He saved his village. Although Grandpa Rainbow left us on January 23, 2024, people will

They think they are not the most beautiful or the smartest. Sometimes kids don’t know how special they are. When they see wonderful athletes (运动员) or cool stars, they often think: Am I outstanding Am I creative What am I going to be when I grow up Many kids often want to be different from others.
Growing up means understanding what you want to do and what you can offer to the world. When you are young, you don’t see that. But when you get older, you may know that just by being yourself, you do offer something to other people.
Maybe you aren’t the best, but that doesn’t make you “not special”. Think about your friends. Write down some things that you like about them and something that you have in common. Think about why you are friends. You are going to know that in the end, though they aren’t the smartest, the prettiest or the most talented, they are great in their ways. And they feel just the same as you!
In fact it is great to be the best at something, but it’s OK if you can’t. If you just live your life and try hard, you are still pretty amazing. And you can make your dream come true.
46．Many kids think they are too _________.
A．pretty B．smart C．common D．outstanding
47．Many kids _________.
A．worry about their looks
B．want to be the most beautiful

Dancing robots
Humans have designed many different kinds of robots. Some robots blow stuff up; some lift heavy things; while others go to other planets and check things out.
And here is a new robot first: as an art project, creators Fernando Orellana and Brendan Burns have made a robot that uses human dreams as an inspiration for dance moves. By examining recorded brainwave activity and eye movements during Rapid Eye Movement (REM), the Sleep Waking robot finds certain patterns, and translates these patterns into robo-motion.
The movements are not very precis—say you had a dream that you are swimming after a fish in a stream, don’t expect this robot to act this out exactly—but the robot will follow the general progress of your dream: so if you are running in your dream, the robot’s activity will be quicker; if you are lounging around in your dream, the robot’s activity will be slower. If you are looking left in a dream, the robot will gather this from your eye movements, and look left as well.
The Sleep Waking robot is now on display at EXIT ART in New York City. Orellana and Burns built the robot to show people how robots are moving beyond mere tools, and evolving towards becoming like their human creators.
51．What can robots do
A．Blow stuff up.
B．Carry heavy things.
C．Check equipment on other planets.
D．All of the above.
52．What does the Sleep Waking robot do
A．It just finds certain patterns.
B．It finds certain patterns, and transfers images.
C．It finds certain patterns, and translates them into robo-motion.
D．It does brainwave activities and makes eye movements
53．The Sleep Waking robot can act exactly when it follows the________ of people’s dreams.
A．complex progress B．general progress
C．fish swimming D．difficult actions
54．If you are looking right in a dream, the robot will ________.
A．look left B．look right C．close its eyes D．stands still
55．The Sleep Waking robot is on display in________ now.
A．China B．England C．New York City D．Canada

They say that watching TV too much can bring children big problems. At first, it’s bad for their studies. The American scientists say that if children watch lots of TV, they don’t do well in school. Secondly, it’s bad for their health. Studies show that when children watch lots of TV, they eat more unhealthy food. Watching too much TV
is also bad for their eyes. Thirdly, it’s bad for family life. About half of American families watch TV at dinner time. That means that they don’t talk very much when they eat together. Also, there are other bad things the children can get from watching TV programs.

【导语】本文主要探讨了天赋和勤奋是如何影响学生的，作者认为没有必要把每件事都做好。当你对某件事没有任何天赋时，最好的办法就是放弃，然后可以选择你真正有天赋的，并尽你最大的努力去做。
21．句意：我可以清楚地感受到天赋和勤奋是如何影响我的学生的。
teachers老师；friends朋友；parents父母；students学生。根据“I’m a piano teacher.”，可知这里是说天赋和勤奋是如何影响我的学生，故选D。

Think about why you are friends. You are going to know that in the end, though they aren’t the smartest, the prettiest or the most talented, they are great in their ways. And they feel just the same as you!

Dancing robots
Humans have designed many different kinds of robots. Some robots blow stuff up; some lift heavy things; while others go to other planets and check things out.
And here is a new robot first: as an art project, creators Fernando Orellana and Brendan Burns have made a robot that uses human dreams as an inspiration for dance moves. By examining recorded brainwave activity and eye movements during Rapid Eye Movement (REM), the Sleep Waking robot finds certain patterns, and translates these patterns into robo-motion.
The movements are not very precis—say you had a dream that you are swimming after a fish in a stream, don’t expect this robot to act this out exactly—but the robot will follow the general progress of your dream: so if you are running in your dream, the robot’s activity will be quicker; if you are lounging around in your dream, the robot’s activity will be slower. If you are looking left in a dream, the robot will gather this from your eye movements, and look left as well.
The Sleep Waking robot is now on display at EXIT ART in New York City. Orellana and Burns built the robot to show people how robots are moving beyond mere tools, and evolving towards becoming like their human creators.
51．What can robots do
A．Blow stuff up.
B．Carry heavy things.
C．Check equipment on other planets.
D．All of the above.
52．What does the Sleep Waking robot do
A．It just finds certain patterns.
B．It finds certain patterns, and transfers images.
C．It finds certain patterns, and translates them into robo-motion.
D．It does brainwave activities and makes eye movements
53．The Sleep Waking robot can act exactly when it follows the________ of people’s dreams.
A．complex progress B．general progress
C．fish swimming D．difficult actions
54．If you are looking right in a dream, the robot will ________.
A．look left B．look right C．close its eyes D．stands still
55．The Sleep Waking robot is on display in________ now.
A．China B．England C．New York City D．Canada
【答案】51．D 52．C 53．B 54．B 55．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型“舞蹈”机器人——睡眠唤醒机器人，可以根据人们睡觉时的脑电波及眼球等活动做出相应的动作。
51．细节理解题。根据第一段的描述可知，机器人可以炸东西，搬重物，也可以在其他星球检查东西。故选D。
52．细节理解题。根据“... the Sleep Waking robot finds certain patterns, and translates these patterns into robo-motion.”可知，睡眠唤醒机器人可以发现特定的模式，并将这些模式转化为机器人运动。故选C。
53．细节理解题。根据第三段的描述可知，睡眠唤醒机器人并不是很精确，只有在跟随人们梦境中的一般进程时才比较准确。故选B。
54．推理判断题。根据“If you are looking left in a dream, the robot will gather this from your eye movements, and look left as well.”可推断，如果人在梦中向右看，机器人也会向右看。故选B。
55．细节理解题。根据“The Sleep Waking robot is now on display at EXIT ART in New York City.”可知，睡眠唤醒机器人在纽约展出。故选C。

apple. And before her father 66 (can) speak, she took a bite from the other apple quickly, too.

67．句意：父亲很惊讶。此处作表语，应该用形容词，修饰人应该用surprised“惊讶的”。故填surprised。
68．句意：他想也许他的女儿太小了，不懂得分享和给予。and连接两个并列成分，此处应该与giving保持一致，用动名词sharing。故填sharing。
69．句意：这个要美味得多。much修饰比较级，many的比较级为more。故填more。
70．句意：总是抽出更多的时间来更好地理解事情。根据“to understand ... better.”可知，此处应该填名词复数表泛指，故填things。
