While Google, Bing and Yahoo dominate adult search engine choices, they are not always the best choice for students. The sites on this list are good search engines that students can rely on.
Fact Monster
Homework help is always on hand with Fact Monster (www.). It is mainly fit for students aged from 7to 12. There are also all kinds of games, spelling tests and more for kids to improve their study and have some fun.
Ask Kids
Ask Kids (www.) is a great site for students to safely find the information they need from the web. Besides being a useful and safe search engine, Ask Kids also has a useful picture and video search function that allows students to find pictures or videos that may be useful to their information search.
SortFix
SortFix (www.) is one of the useful search engines for students because it provides relevant, organized search results. It does this by analyzing the keywords in the search results, and giving the searcher the ability to focus on, or remove certain keywords. It is a useful search engine if you are not sure what information you want to find, or if you are tired of finding irrelevant results in your searches.
Wolfram Alpha
Created by Stephen Wolfram, Wolfram Alpha (www.) can calculate things that it would take a hundred or more individual websites to do. It uses a set of ways to answer questions directly that you type into the search box, which is different from other websites. You can find everything from the nutritional value of an apple to the real-time position of the International Space Station. An Apple app is offered so that you can add it to any iPod Touch devices.

Fang Jianze, a student of today’s Zhuhai College of Science and Technology, was diagnosed (诊断) with a rare disease at the. age of three, leaving his legs almost useless.
Up until he met his university professor, Fang Jianze always believed he would never be able to do anything on his own. In January 2020, when he put on his first diving suit and began his training, he found himself in a pool of emotions.
In order to build up his physical strength, Fang began riding his bike 5 km every day, covering more than 600 km in half a year. To overcome his fear at water, he fully immersed (沉浸) himself in it in both a mental and physical way. Due to the weakness in his upper arms, he had to rely on his body and legs to keep him afloat.
On August 19th,2020, Fang Jianze got the world’s 2075th Disabled Divers Certification, and became China’s first certified diver with muscle disease.
Since becoming an accomplished diver, Fang sees the world from an entirely new point of view. Now, he has the confidence and ability to help others overcome their own doubts and fears. In 2020 alone, he helped to upgrade more than 20 facilities (设施) for people with disabilities in various ways in Guangzhou.
Nowadays, most parts of the world have accepted the idea of making things accessible for everyone. Everyone can benefit from a barrier-free environment. By accommodating each other’s differences, perhaps we can find a way in which to live together happily, so that no barrier, physical or mental, can impede someone from going after their dreams.
9．What happened to Fang Jianze when he was three years old
A．He lost his legs in an accident.
B．He began training to become a diver.
C．He started riding a bike to build up his strength.
D．He suffered from a rare disease that affected his legs.
10．Why did Fang Jianze start riding his bike every day
A．To overcome his fear of water. B．To help others with disabilities.
C．To improve his physical fitness. D．To prepare for a diving competition.
11．What does the underlined word “impede” in the last paragraph probably mean
A．Stop. B．Protect. C．Guide. D．Separate.
12．Which of the following can best describe Fang Jianze
A．Lucky and warm-hearted. B．Strong-willed and helpful.

It’s easy not to think much about the intelligence of insects. Small creatures with even smaller brains — how smart can they be But as researchers begin to rethink how animals think, even insects are being seen in a new light. Now a new study from the University or Bristol finds that Heliconius butterflies (蝴蝶) have the ability to learn about space.
To test the butterflies’ spatial learning abilities, the researchers set up experiments across three different spatial levels, each reflecting behaviors significant to their natural environment. First, they checked if the butterflies could find food among 16 flowers in a small area. Next, they enlarged the space, seeing if the butterflies could choose the correct side of a larger maze (迷宫) for food. Finally, they used a big outdoor cage to see if the butterflies could find their way through a wide T-maze for food. The butterflies succeeded in all tests.
The study’s senior author, Dr. Stephen Montgomery, notes that these findings show the difficult behaviors that even familiar animals like butterflies exhibit as part of their natural ecology (生态). These species are processing diverse information from their environment and utilizing it to perform difficult tasks — all with brains just a few millimeters wide.
The researchers plan to further investigate Heliconius butterflies’ spatial learning abilities by comparing them to closely related species that do not feed on pollen (花粉). This will help show how an animal's environment can affect the development of its thinking skills.
Co-lead author Dr. Priscila Moura stresses the significance of these findings, saying that they provide actual evidence of the butterflies’ fascinating spatial learning abilities, a subject that has been discussed for nearly a century. With the new understanding, the researchers can continue to explore insect intelligence and behavior.
13．What did the University of Bristol’s study find about Hehicomius butterflies
A．They are capable of spatial learning.
B．They require assistance in finding food.
C．They can fly long distances without rest.
D．They have a social circle like other insects.
14．What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on
A．The research benefits. B．The research process.
C．The research papers. D．The research team.
15．What does the underlined word “utilizing” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Checking. B．Seeking. C．Judging. D．Using.
16．What is Dr. Priscila Moura’s attitude toward the findings
A．Doubtful. B．Puzzled. C．Supportive. D．Unclear.
Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may soon be a useful tool for doctors. It may help them better understand and treat diseases like breast cancer in ways that were never before possible.
Rishi Rawat teaches AI at the University of Southern California’s (USC) Clinical Science Center in Los Angeles. He is part of a team of scientists who are researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the breast.
Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He says, “This data helps the machine learn. You can put the data into machines and they will learn the patterns and the pattern recognition that is important to making decisions.”
David Agus is another USC researcher. He believes that machines are not going to take the place of doctors. He says, “Computers will not treat patients, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can’t recognize by itself.”
Once a confirmed cancerous growth is removed, doctors still have to treat the patient to reduce the risk of cancer returning. The form of treatment depends on the kind of cancer. Currently, researchers take a thin piece of tissue, put it on a small piece of glass and add color to better see the cells. That process could take days or even longer. Scientists say AI can do something better than just count cells. Through machine learning, it can recognize complex patterns, or structures, and learn how the cells are organized. The hope is that machines will soon be able to make a quick identification of cancer that is free of human mistakes.
Agus adds, “All of a sudden, we have the computing power to really do it in real time. We didn’t have the computing power to do this several years ago, but now it’s all changed.”
The USC’s researchers are now only studying breast cancer. But doctors predict AI will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.
17．What is the key to the learning of AI according to the text
A．The input of data. B．The categories of machines.
C．Computers’ recognition ability. D．Scientists’ consistent research.
18．What is the main point of the fourth paragraph
A．Computers will replace doctors in the future.
B．Doctors don’t need any help from machines.
C．Machines can assist doctors in decision-making.
D．David Agus doesn’t believe in the role of machines in medicine.
19．What is the AI’s advantage over traditional methods in cancer identifying
A．It will cost less money. B．It will become more effective.
C．It will relieve patients’ suffering. D．It will correct personal mistakes.
20．Which word can best describe the technology
A．Promising. B．Integrated. C．User-friendly. D．Challenging.
Up to 40% of the food produced never makes it to our mouths. Food waste is a huge problem. 21 Here are ways to reduce food waste.
● 22 Many of us blindly throw things that look novel into the shopping baskets and then let them sit in the fridge until they go bad. So before shopping, think about exactly what you need for the week, make a detailed shopping list to prevent overbuying and stick to it.
● Get creative with repurposing food. Before walking straight to the bin with your old carrots, ask yourself: Can I make this into something new 23 You needn’t follow any complicated recipes to turn older produce into a fresh new dish. Just use your head to make the best of it. For example, roast the carrots as a side dish or cut them for a salad.
● Your freezer is your friend. If you’re unable to use food before it’s too late, turn to the trusty freezer. Freezing food helps lock in its flavor and nutrients. So next time you find perfect strawberries for your summer picnic, don’t throw the leftovers. 24
● Don’t be fooled by that “sell by” date. Typically, these labels are a best guess by businesses as to when their products will be finest. They’re not hard-and-fast rules about when that cheese has to go straight to the bin. They’re about quality, not about food safety. Next time you do a sweep of your storeroom, remember that. 25 If it doesn’t pass, turn to the bin.
A．Make an advance plan.
B．The answer is probably yes.
C．When in doubt, do a smell test.
D．Add up what you let go to waste.
E．The good news: Each of us can help solve it.
F．They may end up in landfills and produce greenhouse gases.
G．Instead, bag and put them in the freezer in case you want them.

She quickly put on a coat and ran to the living room. When she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warm greeting, “Good morning!”
It was from her father, who was a seaman and rarely came back. Suddenly, Jane’s sleepiness disappeared.
Born in a not-so-rich family, Jane and Tom felt the stress of life, but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. At school, they were straight-A students and took part in various after-school activities. They were the pride of the family.
“Good morning, Dad. Why do you call us so early on the weekend ” Jane said and pretended to be annoyed. “Tom and I have been very nice recently.” “My dear, today is your mother’s birthday, and I have ordered a cake online and it will be sent to our home late in the afternoon. Do remember to take the cake. It is my surprise for your mother.”
Hearing her father’s words, Jane felt a little ashamed. How could she forget her mother’s birthday !
While she was chatting with her father, Jane looked around the room and saw a lot of dirty clothes on the sofa. The floor hadn’t been cleaned for a few days since her mother had to work all this week.

21．根据上文“Up to 40% of the food produced never makes it to our mouths. Food waste is a huge problem.(多达40%的食物从未进入我们的口中。食物浪费是个大问题)”以及后文“Here are ways to reduce food waste.(以下是减少食物浪费的方法)”可知，上文提到食物浪费是个大问题，后文则说明了减少食物浪费的建议，说明这个问题有办法解决。E选项中it指代上文a huge problem。故E选项“好消息是：我们每个人都可以帮助解决这个问题”符合语境，故选E。
22．根据后文“Many of us blindly throw things that look novel into the shopping baskets and then let them sit in the fridge until they go bad. So before shopping, think about exactly what you need for the week, make a detailed shopping list to prevent overbuying and stick to it.(我们许多人盲目地把看起来很新奇的东西扔进购物篮，然后把它们放在冰箱里直到它们变质。所以在购物之前，仔细考虑一下你一周需要买什么，列一份详细的购物清单，防止过度购买，然后严格执行)”可知，后文提到了在购物之前，仔细考虑一下你一周需要买什么，列一份详细的购物清单，防止过度购买，然后严格执行，即本段介绍的减少食物浪费的办法是：提前制定计划。故A选项“提前制定计划”符合语境，故选A。
23．根据上文“Get creative with repurposing food. Before walking straight to the bin with your old carrots, ask yourself: Can I make this into something new (创造性地利用食物。在直接把旧胡萝卜扔进垃圾桶之前，问问自己：我能把它做成新东西吗？)”以及后文“You needn’t follow any complicated recipes to turn older produce into a fresh new dish.(你不需要遵循任何复杂的食谱，就可以把旧的农产品变成新鲜的新菜)”可知，上文提出了“能把它做成新东西吗？”的问题，故本句应当是在回答这一问题，结合后文说不需要复杂食谱就可以把旧的农产品变成新鲜的新菜，可知这个问题的答案是肯定的。故B选项“答案可能是肯定的”符合语境，故选B。
24．根据上文“Your freezer is your friend. If you’re unable to use food before it’s too late, turn to the trusty freezer. Freezing food helps lock in its flavor and nutrients. So next time you find perfect strawberries for your summer picnic, don’t throw the leftovers.(你的冰箱就是你的朋友。如果你来不及使用食物，就求助于可靠的冰箱。冷冻食物有助于保存食物的味道和营养。所以，下次当你在夏日野餐时发现完美的草莓时，不要把剩菜都扔了)”可知，上文提到不要把野餐的剩菜扔了，即本句承接上文继续说明如何处理剩菜，G选项中them指代上文the leftovers。故G选项“相反，如果你想要的话，把它们打包放进冰箱里”符合语境，故选G。
25．根据上文“Don’t be fooled by that “sell by” date. Typically, these labels are a best guess by businesses as to when their products will be finest. They’re not hard-and-fast rules about when that cheese has to go straight to the bin. They’re about quality, not about food safety. Next time you do a sweep of your storeroom, remember that.(不要被那个“最佳食用”的日期所愚弄。通常，这些标签是企业对他们的产品何时最好的猜测。关于什么时候该把奶酪直接扔进垃圾桶，并没有硬性规定。他们关心的是食品质量，而不是食品安全。下次打扫储藏室的时候，记住这一点)”以及后文“If it doesn’t pass, turn to the bin.(如果没有通过测试，就把它扔进垃圾桶)”可知，本段主要说明了不要一味相信包装上“最佳食用”日期，关于什么时候该把奶酪直接扔进垃圾桶，并没有硬性规定，可推知本句是在说明如何判断食物还能否食用，后文提到“通过测试”可推知本句是在说对食物进行什么样的测试，故C选项“有疑问时，做嗅觉测试”符合语境，故选C。

【原文】
Foshan paper-cutting is a traditional folk art with a long history, which dates back to more than 1,000 years ago. In Qing Dynasty, paper-cutting became popular in Foshan and was an important part of people’s daily life. People often beautify their homes with paper-cuttings during the Spring Festival and wedding celebrations. There are three kinds of paper-cuts: paper cuts for decoration, for religious purposes and for design, among which those for decoration are the most widely used. The colour most frequently used in paper-cutting is red, which symbolizes health and prosperity. Nowadays, paper-cutting products are often chosen as presents and foreigners are always fond of them. There are more than 30 shops for paper-cuts in Foshan, and paper-cutting products sell as far as in Southeast Asia.
46．absolutely
【详解】考查副词。句意：众所周知，鱼不能在绝对清澈的水中生存。修饰形容词clear，用副词形式。absolute的副词形式为absolutely，表示“完全地；绝对地”。故填absolutely。
47．branches
【详解】考查名词复数。句意：一个小男孩爬上苹果树，摇晃着它的树枝，让苹果掉了下来。branch，意为 “树枝”，为可数名词。根据语境，男孩摇晃的是苹果树的多个树枝，所以这里应用复数形式作宾语。故填branches。
48．a
【详解】考查冠词。句意：这款神奇的产品是传统方法和人工智能的一种独特结合。介词by的宾语combination为可数名词，使用了单数形式，这里泛指一种结合方式，应使用不定冠词；该空后的形容词unique发音以辅音音标开头，应填冠词a。故填a。
49．brought
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：他们中的一些人在农村长大，从未见过火车。句中已有谓语动词had seen，所以此处要用非谓语动词形式，且bring up与some of them构成被动关系，故用过去分词作后置定语，故填brought。
50．it
【详解】考查固定结构。句意：网上购物使人们更容易花更多的钱为他们所爱的人买礼物。根据空前“make”和空后“much easier for the public to spend…”可知，此处用固定结构make it adj. for sb. to do sth.，意为“使某人做事……”，其中it是形式宾语，不定式是真正的宾语。故填it。
51．where
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这件事已经发展到一个我无法独自处理它的阶段了。分析句子结构，“This thing has come to a stage”为主句，后面部分为定语从句，用于修饰先行词stage，在定语从句“I am unable to deal with it by myself”中，先行词stage在从句里作地点状语，相当于“in this stage”，当定语从句中先行词在从句中作地点状语时，要用关系副词where来引导从句。故填where。
52．resulting
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：今年3月，一架飞机在广西滕县坠毁，造成132人死亡。分析句子可知，句中有谓语动词“crashed”且句中无连词，故空格处应用非谓语动词，句中应用现在分词作结果状语，表示自然而然的结果，“result”意为“导致”，动词词性，现在分词为“resulting”。故填resulting。
53．from
【详解】考查介词。句意：除了和朋友玩乐之外，旅行将是另一种放松和学习的方式。根据“Apart”和“another way”可知，此处用固定短语apart from表示“除了……外（还）”，引出除了某个人或物体之外的其他选项或情况。故填from。
54．was rejected
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意：他的申请再次被拒绝，这使他失望。根据句中“made”可知，句子陈述的是过去发生的事，“reject”意为“拒绝”，动词词性，“application”和“reject”为被动关系，故句子应用一般过去时的被动语态，“application”和“was”连用，“reject”的过去分词为“rejected”，故空格处应填“was rejected”。故填was rejected。
55．scared
【详解】考查形容词。句意：我的邻居养了一只很凶猛的狗，我一看到它就感到害怕。分析句子可知，此空应填形容词作表语，scared，表“害怕的”，符合语境。故填scared。
56． fell in love with
【详解】考查动词短语和时态。句意：她那天一眼就爱上了他的眼睛，那是通往如海洋般深邃灵魂的窗户。根据汉语提示“爱上”可知，此处为动词短语fall in love with，结合时间状语“that day”可知，使用一般过去时。故填①fell；②in；③love；④with。

60． adapted from
【详解】考查过去分词作定语。句意：这部改编自真实故事的电影给我留下了深刻的印象。原句中“which was adapted from a true story”是定语从句，修饰先行词The film，可改写为分词作后置定语；动词adapt(改编)与其逻辑主语The film之间是被动关系，且改编已完成，用过去分词短语表示被动和完成的含义，即adapted from a true story。故填adapted；from。
61． is more valuable than
【详解】考查形容词的比较级。句意：对怀特太太来说，婴儿的笑脸是她生命中最宝贵的东西。在英语中，“否定词+比较级”即形容词的比较级用在否定结构中，可以表示 “最……不过”、“不比……更”的意思，相当于形容词的最高级的含义，也是一种强调。故上面句子可改写为“否定词+比较级”结构。故答案为：is more valuable than。
62．Many Chinese students abroad have been inspired (by him) to come back to their motherland.
【详解】考查被动语态。句意：他激励了许多中国留学生回到祖国。原句为主动语态，主语为He，谓语部分使用动词短语inspire sb to do，表示“激励某人做某事”，宾语为many Chinese students abroad，改为被动语态后，主语变为many Chinese students abroad，谓语部分用动词短语为sb be inspired to do，因原句中谓语动词使用了现在完成时，改变后的句子谓语动词使用现在完成时的被动语态，即have been inspired to do，并且可添加by him作为介词短语表示动作的执行者。故答案为Many Chinese students abroad have been inspired (by him) to come back to their motherland.
63．On the eve of Chinese New Year, all the families gather around, having a big dinner.
【详解】考查现在分词作伴随状语。句意：在农历新年前夕，所有的家庭都聚在一起，吃一顿丰盛的晚餐。原句中“gather around”和“have a big dinner”这两个动作同时发生，是并列谓语，可去掉连词and，将“have a big dinner”处理为伴随状语，动词have与其逻辑主语all the families之间是主动关系，用现在分词having表主动和伴随。故填：On the eve of Chinese New Year, all the families gather around, having a big dinner.
64．Our English teacher is humorous, which makes our class filled with joy.
【详解】考查动词时态，短语及非限制性定语从句。句子是主从复合句，主句主语our English teacher，“很幽默”用be humorous，“这让我们的课堂充满乐趣”应使用which引导的非限制性定语从句，指代前面整个主句，用which引导定语从句，“充满”译为filled with，“让我们的课堂充满乐趣”译为make our class filled with joy，描述一般事实用一般现在时，结合主谓一致。故答案为Our English teacher is humorous, which makes our class filled with joy.
65．One possible version:
Jane hurried to Tom’s room and shared her plan with him. Having learned about the details, Tom volunteered to clean the floor. It took him more than two hours to clean every corner in the house. For the first time, Tom realized how hard it had been for his mother and sister to keep the house clean. While Tom was working, Jane washed the dirty clothes and decorated the room with colorful balloons. When the cake arrived, everything was ready for the big moment.
“Happy birthday, Mum!” Jane and Tom shouted when their mother opened the door. Seeing the beautifully decorated room and the big cake on the table, their mother seemed to be very confused and surprised. After Tom and Jane told her what had happened, she could hardly hide her excitement and hugged them tightly. “It is the best birthday gift I have ever had!” said their mother, who then took out her smartphone and made a video. “We should share this surprise with your father!”
