【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:外面正在下雨,因此你最好带上你的雨伞。

【答案】B【解析】

In recent years, I was worried about my 10-year-old daughter. She didn’t like to
communicate with others. She always kept quiet and hid herself in her own world. Many times I
wanted to talk with her about this problem, but she often kept a blind eye on it. However, one
day she said to me, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?”
Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of herself.
“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We
lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of
10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian helped me out. She was one of the friendliest
people in school, with shiny black hair and kind smile.
In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be
away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon,” she told me. But three days later,
Lillian’s sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn’t come out any more. Soon, my
family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Donna brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs Loggia,” the little girl said. Her
hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. “My name is Laura.”
My daughter’s new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled when Laura’s mom
came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. “Judy!” she cried. “It’s
,
me Lillian’s sister, from Washington Heights.” Yes, my daughter’s friend looked familiar.She was Lillian’s niece(外甥女).

D
Do you have imagination? Do you like to solve problems? Can you think out of the box? If so, you could be
the next great inventor. “But I’m just a kid,” you might say! Don’t worry about a little thing like age. Some of the
greatest inventors in the world get their start as kids.
For example, Benjamin Franklin created paddles (桨) for his hands to help him swim faster when he was only12 years old. His creation led to today’s flippers (橡胶蹼)!
You don’t have to be an adult, a scientist or a genius (天才) to be an inventor. One thing you need is: curiosity
and imagination. Kids are known for looking at things in new and unique ways. Sometimes their understanding of
things leads to great inventions!
Sometimes inventors come up with completely new things that solve a problem. At other times new inventions
are only things that are changed or improved. Then they work better or serve a different purpose.
So what should you do if you have a great idea for an invention? Talk to a friend or family member about it.
Ask them to help you create a working model of your idea.
Once you have a working model, you should test it. Sometimes after the test, you may find your idea is not as
great as you thought. At other times you realize it is a good idea and your working model can help you work out
how to make it better.
If you need some ideas, consider these kids and their inventions:
Frank Epperson invented Popsicles (冰棍) when he was 11. One night he mixed soda powder (苏打粉) and
water with a stick. He left it outside all night. The next morning, he found that the stick had frozen (冻结) inside the
drink during the cold night.
Chester Greenwood created earmuffs (耳罩) when he was 15. He found his ears got painfully cold when he
was skating. He decided to solve the problem. He found a piece of wire (电线), and his grandma helped him pad
(用软物填塞) the ends.
At the age of 15, Louis Braille invented the system that allowed blind people to read.
41. The underlined word “unique” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A. strict B. famous C. unusual D. popular
42. We can learn from the passage that ________.
.
A Benjamin Franklin made paddles for his feet
B. Frank Epperson spent many days making Popsicles
C. Chester Greenwood created earmuffs with his teacher
D. Louis Braille’s invention helped blind people to read
43. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. age is very important for inventions B. kids inventors are geniuses C. inventions should be
completely new D. a working model needs to be tested
44. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Are Inventions Important?
B. Can Kids Be Inventors, Too?C. What’s Your Favourite Invention?
D. How Can You Make Inventions Popular?
【答案】41. C 42. D 43. D 44. B
【解析】
【导语】本文通过举例说明了孩子成为发明家的可能性。
【41题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Kids are known for looking at things in new and unique ways.”可知,孩子们用一种新的和
“unique”的方式看待事物,由于是新的,因此这里应该是用不同寻常的方式,即unusual“不平常的”。故
选C。

Stay Home Studying
17-year-old Liu Yu was a high school student in China. She planned to go back to school on Feb 17 to prepare
for the 2020 college entrance examination(高考). However, the Ministry of Education(教育部)told people in
late January that the spring term for all schools would be put off because of the serious disease(疾病)in China.
So Liu Yu, like all the others students, had to stay at home.
,
However Liu and her classmates didn’t fell behind their plans and began studying full-time again – onlyfrom home. It may have become the largest online teaching experiment the country has ever seen.
To go with students’ new learning environment, a “cloud platform(云平台)” was started using on Feb 17.
It provided students with education resources(资源) covering all school subjects. But some students had
difficulty going to the website or using smart phones. A TV channel by China Education Television started airing
classes on Feb 17. So students could have classes and study online or on TV at home.
But the online platform and TV channel don’t just offer school knowledge. Students can also learn how to
protect themselves from the disease and psychological(心理的)health during this period, according to the
Ministry of Education.
For some students, the chance to study from home has had some unexpected benefits. Yuan Siyi, who lives in
Hubei province, used to get up before 6 am on school days, but since starting online courses, she got more hours of
sleep every morning. “I like online teaching because I have more freedom at home,” Yuan told TEENS. She began
her all-day courses on Feb 3.
However, online teaching and learning has its weaknesses compared to studying in a traditional classroom.
“My motivation(动力)to study is stronger when my classmates are around me and all working very hard,” Yuan
said.
According to the Ministry of Education, online courses are just a short-time way of learning during the
disease. When the new term begins, schools will no longer use online classes instead of classroom teaching.
