Scientists are working on something new. It is a machine and it can give blind people a new way to read. Soon, the blind may be able to read almost everything.
The machine is called the FingerReader. It is like a ring on a person's finger. The FingerReader can scan words and then a computer voice will read the words out loudly. It works more quickly than any other reading machine.
Making the FingerReader wasn't easy. Scientists tried many different ideas. It took them three years to make it. Many blind people helped to test the machine. Jerry Berrier, 62 years old was one of them. Jerry was born blind. He likes the FingerReader because it's small. It can be used anywhere.
However, the FingerReader is not ready for sale. Scientists still need to improve it because it doesn't yet work with smart phones. TheFingerReader can read books, magazines, newspapers and computer
screens, but it has problems reading a touch screen.
Scientists believe that many people may want to buy one if the FingerReader is on sale. About 285 million people in the world have vision(视力) problems.

A. can read much louder B. looks more beautiful
C. can scan more words D. works more quickly
( )20. Which CANNOT show it was hard to make the FingerReader

B. It took them three years to make it.
C. Many blind people helped to test it.
D. It can be used anywhere.
( )21. The FingerReader meets a problem when it is used to read
A. smart phones B.computer screens
C. newspapers D. magazines
( )22. What can we learn from the passage
A. The FingerReader is ready for sale now.
B. The FingerReader is made by Jerry Berrier.
C. The FingerReader might be very popular.
D. The FingerReader is too expensive.

When I was growing up, Dad would often give me chores to do to help out around the house. There were some of them I remembered most clearly.
The first was helping weed the four gardens. It was tedious work. I had to pull thousands of weeds in our gardens. The second was stacking firewood for the winter. It was hard work and I had to stack it for the whole family. I thought it was tiring. The third was getting water from a mountain spring and taking it to our house. It was a long and difficult trip, and I once cried on the way.
Over the years, though, I learned to see the rewards in all the chores Dad made me do. Having fresh vegetables for dinner was a delicious delight. Enjoying a big glass of iced tea made from the mountain spring water was a great pleasure. Standing by the wood stove on a snowy day in December was a wonderful way to warm up. I saw that all this work Dad had given me had made me a better, stronger, and more caring man.
Most of all, over the years I have also learned that when we do the work with a loving heart, it doesn't feel like work, either.
I just want Dad to know that I'm so thankful to him, because he showed me the real value of work.
( )23. The underlined word“ tedious” probably means“ ”.
A. boring B. helpful C. easy D. important
( )24. How many kinds of chores did the writer remember most clearly
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
( )25. The writer now thinks that those chores his father made him do .
A. were difficult to a young boy
B. were not important to the family
C. brought him too much pain
D. made him a healthy and kind person
( )26. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means .
A. working makes our lives better
B. a happy life needs hard work
C. a loving heart makes work a pleasure
D. we don't have to work if we have a loving heart
D
Before cars appeared, people walked or used animals as transport. They rode horses, camels and even elephants. Travel from one place to another was slow and difficult, so people hardly went far. They couldn't carry heavy things with them.
Then inventors began to dream. What could go faster What could carry heavier things Could they make a thing running by itself
In 1769, an inventor named Nicolas- Joseph Cugnot found an answer. He watched horses slowly moving cannons(大炮) to the war field. Then he had a better idea. He made the first automobile, or car. Auto means“ self”. Mobile means“ moving”.
Cugnot's invention could move all by itself. His car was stronger than any horse. It could pull a few cannons at a time. But it wasn't perfect. It could only run about 7.8 kilometers(4.8 miles) per hour and had to stop about every 15 minutes.
In the 1880s, two German inventors came up with a better idea which changed cars forever. The new cars used gas(汽油) to run. They could run faster and longer, but they cost up to $2,000. It took a person in the US about four years to make that much at that time. Only the rich people could afford the cars.
But Henry Ford changed that. He made a car and sold it for $825. Why did he sell it so cheaply That was because he had a faster way to make cars.
( )27. Why did the writer write the first paragraph
A. To show the reasons for inventing cars.
B. To show how to invent cars.
C. To explain why people used animals.
D. To encourage people to use animals.
( )28. Which is TRUE about the German inventors' cars
A. It was easy and quick to make them.
B. They could run faster than Henry Ford's cars.
C. They were too expensive for most of the people.
D. They used gas to run and most people could afford them.
( )29. What's the RIGHT structure(结构) of the passage
A.①‖②‖③④⑤⑥ B.①②‖③④⑤‖⑥
C.①‖②③④⑤‖⑥ D.①②‖③④‖⑤⑥
( )30. What is the best title for this passage
A. How Cars Run B. The Importance of Cars
C. The Uses of Cars D. The History of cars
第二节：任务型阅读：仔细阅读第31—35题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出相应的标题与之进行匹配。选项中有一项是多余选项。(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)
31.
The average(普通的) American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence(影响) on their children.
32.
Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre- schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
33.
The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence(暴力) on TV makes children more aggressive(好斗的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive(积极的) programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly(越来越多地) watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.
34.
An experiment(实验) finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra(额外的) weight; however, less television time does not make them more active(活跃的). The real problem lies in snacking, a wide spread ha bit for kids, and junk- food advertisements(广告).
35.
The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have bad sleep habits. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.
A. TV makes kids heavy.
B. TV makes kids stupid.
C. Disadvantages(坏处) of watching TV.
D. TV helps kids get to sleep.
E. TV makes kids violent(暴力的).
F. Wrong ideas of television's effect(影响) on children.

八、One possible version:
We Should Protect Wild Animals
There are lots of endangered animals in the world, such as tigers and pandas. Nowadays people cut down too many trees. So tigers can no longer hide themselves. And even some people sell their fur for money, and there are few places for pandas to live in, too.
Animals are our friends. We could not live without all the animals. It's important to protect wildlife since we have only one earth. We must do something to stop animals from being killed. We can refuse to use ivory products and eat wild animals. And we can also put up a poster to tell people to protect animals. It is very easy and useful. Let's take action!
