A
When 12 girls from San Fernando High School in California were agreed to develop an invention
to solve a real-world problem, they decided to create a solar-powered shelter to help the homeless.
Now for over a year, the girls have been working after school and over their winter and spring
breaks to complete their project. “They have this amazing inner power that I’ve never seen,” said
Violet Mardirosian. She is a math teacher at San Fernando High, who has worked with the team since
the beginning of the project. “I thought at the beginning that maybe some of them would give up after
meeting with some difficulties, but they go on.”
As local people of a low-income community, the girls have seen the problem of homeless
first-hand, which is why they chose that population to create a product for. Seventeen-year-old
Maggie Mejia said that while she had no prior（优先的）engineering experience, the girls figured out
as a team how to create the prototype(原型), using how-to videos that taught them how to do. But the
most important lesson she’s learned over the course of the project isn’t professional.
“I’ve learned a lot about helping others, helping the community and being selfless and showing a
better world to other people and changing someone else’s life,” she said. The girls have been invited
to MIT to show their invention and are raising money on Gofundme hoping that the whole team can
attend. “In order not to put any pressure on the parents, we’d like to raise money for their trip. We
want all 12 girls to be able to go because every single student has had some efforts into creating this
great product,” Mardirosian said.
Mardirosian says all the students taking part in the project have expressed interest in going into
technical fields and that students from lower grades are already expressing interest in taking part in
the project next year.
51. The shelter is powered by taking advantage of ________.
A. sunlight B. earth heat C. wind D. moving water
52. In the opinion of Violet Mardirosian, the girls ________.
A. are all from rich families
B. felt blue when facing the problem
C. are helpful students with a strong will
D. got lots of support from their teachers and parents
53. How did the girls figure out how to create the prototype?
A. By reading books. B. By asking experts.
C. By doing experiments. D. By watching videos.
54. It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A. all girls have no interest in technical fields
B. the girls need help to present the invention at MIT
C. only one girl can go to MIT to show their invention
D. helping others makes the girls learn how to work together 高一英语 第 6 页 共 10 页
55. Which of the following statements is right?
A. All the girls went to MIT at last.
B. Students have learned to become selfish.
C. Other students want to take part in the project.
D. MIT gave the students some help with technology.

Chinese fans are expected to travel to 2018 World Cup finals in record numbers with the growing
interest in soccer and a friendly relationship with host Russian seen as key reasons, despite the
national side’s failings on the pitch.
China has only played at one World Cup, but Feng Tao, chief executive officer of marketing and
events firm Shankai, believes fans will flock(涌入) to Russia regardless. “We are confident we can
bring more fans to Russia because of the relationship between Russia and China,” said Feng, whose
company has signed an exclusive(独家的) deal with BH Hospitality to sell travel packages to the
Chinese market.
He countries are very close, so it’s much easier to go to Russia than it is to go to Brazil, which
takes 24 or 25 hours, or to South Africa, which takes 14 or 15 hours. To go to Russia takes only seven
hours from China, so it’s easier. Historically, there’s a good-relationship between China and Russia
and now football has become part of the mentality of the Chinese people. Businessmen, the media and
fans are showing strong interest in the World Cup.
While the number is unlikely to eclipse the numbers who traveled to South Korea to watch China
play in 2002—as many as 100,000 were believed to have seen the side’s World Cup debut(首秀)—
Shankai are expecting 50,000 packages to be sold to Chinese fans as part of the expected $25 million
deal. The number represents the most of for a World Cup that does not feature the Chinese team.
“The fans who went to Brazil were spending more money,” says John Parker, managing director
of BH Hospitality. “But what we are seeing in China is that they are waking up to the enthusiasm of
sport and, because of the Internet especially, they are now able to access everything they require and
they are comfortable doing that. Tourism between Russia and China is very strong and the Chinese
population is falling in love with soccer. China is going to be a growth market. It’s already developing
from where it was historically.”
56. More Chinese fans will go to Russia to watch the 2018 World Cup because of the following
reasons EXCEPT ________.
A. the close distance of the two countries B. the growing interest the fans show in soccer
C. the good relationship between the two countries D. the low price of the travel package
57. What’s Feng Tao’s attitude towards China’s market?
A. Confident. B. Worried. C. Disappointed. D. Unclear.
58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Events firm Shankai doesn’t have interest in the Chinese market. 高一英语 第 7 页 共 10 页
B. Football has risen to the spiritual level of Chinese fans nowadays.
C. Chinese fans mind their national team’s past failure in the World Cup.
D. Events firm Shankai has worked with BH Hospitality many times.
59. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “eclipse” in Paragraph 4?
A. Be the same as. B. Depend on. C. Be over. D. Be less than.
60. According to John Parker, ________.
A. travelling to the World Cup in Brazil costs little
B. the Internet makes the Chinese increase their interest in sport
C. China hasn’t established tourism communication with Russia
D. China’s market will be an attraction to all the countries
C
A British competition since 1920, the Blackpool dance festival moved to Shanghai, bringing its
beauty to China’s economic center as it goes after the country’s ballroom dancing market. “China is a
rising nation in ballroom dancing without doubt. It’s a billion-dollar business,” said Michael Williams,
managing director of Blackpool Entertainment, which operates the festival. “Given those numbers it
seemed right to come here.”
From its origins in Britain between two World Wars, the festival held every year in Blackpool’s
rococo-style Empress Ballroom now attracts competitors from dozens of countries. Ballroom dance is
popular throughout East Asia, and in 2016 the Blackpool event saw more competitors from China
than any other country. The Shanghai event—the second held here—saw competitors foxtrot, cha-cha
and rumba in a sports stadium normally used for basketball practice, with the addition of a
proscenium arch and orchestra stage(舞台口和交响乐演奏台). “What we have brought is the
Empress orchestra—it’s exactly the same set-up and music that we have in Blackpool,” Mr. Williams
added.
China’s tech giant Alibaba live-streamed(直播) the Shanghai event online and is putting more than
Rmb 10m a year into the Blackpool brand in China, said Will Wei, vice-president of Alisports. He said
that there were up to 80m ballroom dancers in China, with more than 100,000 at a competitive level.
Alibaba’s participation proves that Chinese companies are looking to bring foreign sporting
competitions to China, such as Wanda’s bringing in the Ironman triathlon event in 2015. Chinese
companies have also been competing over live-streaming rights, with tech company Tencent
announcing a deal with the NFL American football league this week.
At the backstage, where competitors from China, the US and Russia warmed up, some grumbled
about the smaller scale of the Chinese competition. “The atmosphere is not quite the same as in
Blackpool; there are not enough foreign competitors,” said Latin dance specialist Jason Jiao,26.
Alisports said 2,800 dancers from 25 countries competed, but most seats were empty and touts(票
贩子) struggled to sell tickets outside the stadium. “Shanghai Blackpool just started so it’s not very
well popularized,” said Beijing-based ballroom enthusiast Andrew Gao, adding: “It’s new to China, 高一英语 第 8 页 共 10 页
but it will be one of the biggest competitions.”
61. The Blackpool dance festival moved to China to ________.
A. find young dancers B. exchange cultures
C. popularize ballroom dancing D. seek new development
62. According to the passage, Shanghai________.
A. doesn’t have any experience of holding the Blackpool dance festival
B. didn’t attract many foreign competitors
C. has the largest number of ballroom dancers in China
D. didn’t offer a specialized place for the Blackpool dance festival
63. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Chinese companies are interested in foreign sporting competitions.
B. The market in China is a big competitive field of sporting competitions.
C. The Blackpool dance festival is a great attraction to Chinese companies.
D. Foreign sporting competitions are much more popular in China.
64. What does the underlined word “grumbled” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Joked. B. Worried. C. Complained. D. Argued.
65. It can be inferred from the passage that 2017 Shanghai Blackpool________.

B. wasn’t warmly welcomed by the audience
C. let touts make good money
D. has become one of the biggest competitors
