Do they help you a lot in your life or bring you much fun? Here are some of the most useful inventions in families according to a survey. The most helpful and creative invention for kids is the reading pen. With the specially­designed pen, kids find it convenient and fun to learn. Little kids can learn a lot including story­telling, poems and music. They start learning by touching the contents in the books with the pen. This way kids can learn by themselves. They are also great helpers for primary school students after school. Mopping robots(扫地机器人)are popular with people who are too busy to do housework. They are more popular with office ladies. They can help people clean dirt, dust and hair easily. With the help of them, people don't need to spend much time on housework. They can enjoy a more relaxing life after work. As for old people, an electric foot basin(电动洗脚盆) is the best invention. It's a good choice to buy one for your grandparents. It can help keep their blood pressure normal and improve blood circulation(循环). The special basin can keep the water warm. So washing feet with it will help old people become healthier and more relaxed. 46. It is ____ for kids to learn with the reading pen. A. boring 4 B. convenient C. difficult D. fun 47. Mopping robots are more popular with ____. A. kids B. office ladies C. old people D. young men 48. Old people can keep their blood pressure normal by ____. A. using the electric foot basin B. listening to music with the reading pen C. making the mopping machine work D. keeping the water warm B The biggest secret about inventing is that anybody can do it! Perhaps this sounds crazy, but it's true. Maybe you have the wrong idea about inventing, so read on to discover the truth. ★Wrong idea No. 1：An invention has to be something completely new. Inventing means creating something “new”, but the idea could come from something that already exists(存在). The Wright Brothers, for example, got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds. ★Wrong idea No. 2：Inventors are born, not made. There are a lot of factors(因素) that make invention possible. Take Mozart for an example. He was born with a talent for musical composition. But other factors were also important for his creativity. His father was a music teacher, and Mozart practiced for hours every day, from the time he was four years old. Thomas Edison said that being an inventor was “99% hard work and 1% inspiration”！ Very successful creators don't give up when they get something wrong. As one inventor said, “A failure is the right answer to the wrong question. ” 5 ★Wrong idea No. 3：Inventors are always old people. Don't believe that you can't invent something when you are young. Here are two examples of young inventors: Louis Braille went blind when he was a child. When he was fifteen, he invented a system of reading and writing for blind people that is still used in most countries today. As a young man, George Nissen was watching some artists performing in a show. He watched how they fell into the safety net and then jumped back up again. This gave him an idea, and he invented the trampoline. 49. ____ got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds. A. Mozart B. George Nissen C. Louis Braille D. The Wright Brothers 50. The underlined word “talent” means “____” in Chinese. A. 态度 B. 品质 C. 天赋 D. 能量 51. Which of the following is the writer's opinion? A. Anybody can do inventing. B. Inventors are born, not made. C. Inventors are always old people. D. An invention has to be something completely new. C Dear Rita, How are you? Last time you asked me about the greatest invention in my eyes. I have also discussed it with my best friends, Anna, Sue and Kris. We have different ideas. Anna thinks it is the high­speed railway; Sue, the shared bike; Kris, the online shopping; and I prefer the Internet. The Internet is just like a net, and it connects us with the world. In the past, it was 6 nearly impossible for people to communicate immediately with people in other countries. They had to spend a long time to reach their destinations (目的地), and not everyone could do that. But the Internet has made the impossible possible. Now we can communicate with foreigners online. The Internet also helps us know what is happening around the world, and has made our life and work easier. In recent years, shopping online is very popular. We can just stay at home and buy what we need online. We can also do online office work and distance education. Besides, we can watch movies, listen to music and even play games to relax ourselves on the Internet. So, I think that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions. It has changed our world! Although there are still many problems with the Internet, they will be solved in the near future. As a student we should make good use of the Internet! Yours, Martin 52. The letter was written by ____. A. Rita B. Sue C. Anna D. Martin 53. Anna thought that ____ was the greatest invention. A. the high­speed railway B. the shared bike C. the Internet D. the online shopping 54. “But the Internet has made the impossible possible” means “____”. A. People spent a long time to reach their places B. Many things can be done now because of the Internet C. People could hardly talk with foreigners D. The Internet is just like a net 55. For what purpose does the writer write the letter? 7 A. To warn others how to make use of the Internet. B. To tell people the communication ways in the past. C. To talk about his opinions about the greatest invention. D. To make people know about the problems of the Internet. 九、任务型阅读。(共 5 小题, 每小题 2 分, 共 10 分) As we all know, the “rice bowl” culture of China has influenced some Asian countries such as Japan, Korea and Vietnam since we started to use chopsticks while eating food. Chopsticks are usually two long thin pieces of wood or bamboo. They can also be made of plastic, animal bone or metal. (1) The most important thing is that chopsticks are a great invention in China. Five thousand years ago people usually cooked their food in large pots, using twigs(小树枝)to remove it. (2) the population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces. (3)Food in small pieces could be eaten easily with twigs by people. And twigs were gradually changed into chopsticks. Some people think that the famous scholar Confucius living from about 551 BC to 479 BC pushed the development of chopsticks. Confucius believed that using chopsticks instead of knives would remind people to stay away from killing and violence at table. We enjoy our delicious food with our family members or friends while feeling the peaceful and people­loving world by using chopsticks at table anytime. 56. 请将(1)处画线的句子译成中文： _________________________________________________________________ 57. 在(2)空处填入一个使语意连贯的连词： _________________________________________________________________ 58.

Lily thinks an electronic schoolbag is not heavy and easy to carry. We can get information easily. And it also makes us more interested in lessons. Peter 11 says if he uses it all day, it will be bad for his eyes. And he doesn't think it can replace textbooks. Tina thinks it is expensive but it can protect the environment because people don't need to cut down trees to make paper books. In my opinion, it's easier for teachers to find each student's problem and help them.
