Scientists from China’s Shanghai Jiao Tong University are developing a robot “guide dog” to help blind
people. The robot dog is about the size of an English bulldog but a little wider. It has six legs instead of four. The
extra legs make it more stable and help it move faster.
The robot is being tested in Shanghai. With the help of cameras and AI, the robot dog can see, listen and speak
with blind people. It can help them during daily trips outside and be a “friend” at home. Blind people can also use a
cane (手杖) to control the robot’s walking and running speed. The robot can even recognize the traffic lights—real
guide dogs are unable to do that.
Li Fei and Zhu Sibin are helping test the robot. Li is totally blind and Zhu can only see a little. Zhu often uses
a cane to move around. “The robot dog will make it easier to get into public places than with real guide dogs. I am
happy to join in the test. It could change our lives in the near future,” Li said.
In China, there are about 17.31 million blind people, but there are only about 400 guide dogs. The new robot is
trying to solve this problem. “We believe our robot will act as ‘a pair of eyes’ for blind people,” said Professor Gao
Peng, one of the scientists. He thinks there could be a large market for these robot dogs.
4. Why do scientists develop the robot dog?
A. To help blind people. B. To improve AI technology. C. To beat the British
bulldog. D. To create a six-legged machine.
5. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. How the robot dog works. B. Where the robot dog can go. C. What the robot
dog can do. D. When the robot dog comes out.
6. How does Li Fei help develop the robot dog?
A. He designs it. B. He helps test it. C. He brings it into public places. D. He controls it
with a cane.
7. What is Professor Gao Peng’s opinion about the robot dog?
A. It can treat blindness. B. It costs a lot of money.
C. It has taken the place of real guide dogs. D. It will have a large number of customers.
C
During the 2021 Shanghai Fashion Week, a young, slim and confident model with an iron leg drew everyone’s
attention. Her name was Niu Yu. She lost her right leg in the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. She was only 11 years old
then.
Niu Yu used to be in the school sports team. She loved running. But the disaster broke her dream. She had to
live with an artificial leg. It wasn’t comfortable, and her leg often bled. People’s curious eyes made her even moreuncomfortable. She always tried to hide her leg under jeans or dresses.

With the support of her family and friends Niu Yu slowly came out from the shadows. In 2018, right
before her 21st birthday, she decided not to hide her leg any longer. To her surprise, she received lots of
encouraging words. She also finished a half marathon in about 4 hours. She completed the hard 10-year journey of
finding herself again.
Now Niu Yu puts her experiences on social media (媒体). She listens to disaster survivors and encourages
them to look forward. In 2023, she carried the torch (火炬) at the FISU World University Games. “It is a great
honour for me,” she said. “But it is also a good chance to show people the power of being brave.”
A disaster can bring wounds and pain. But we should always face them with courage. As the writer Nora
Ephron once said, “Above all, be the hero of your life, not the victim (受害者).”
8. Why did Niu Yu try to hide her leg?
A. It often bled. B. It was uncomfortable. C. She wanted to be a model. D. She tried to avoid the
strange eyes.
9. What’s Niu Yu’s purpose of putting her experiences on social media?
A. To become a famous star. B. To get support from others. C. To cheer up people in
trouble. D. To win the hearts of more fans.
10. Which is the right order of the facts about Niu Yu according to time?
① She performed in Shanghai Fashion Week.
② She lost her right leg.
③ She finished a half marathon.
④ She carried the torch at the FISU World University Games.
.
A ②①④③ B. ②③①④ C. ③④①② D. ③②④①
11. What can we learn from Niu Yu?
A. Face difficulties bravely.B. Life can’t go without heroes. C. Protect yourself before
disasters. D. Friendship is necessary to everyone.

Parrots are known for being able to copy some of the sounds that people make. They might say “hello” or
“how are you?”, if they often hear those words and phrases. Some are even able to learn the names for objects and
identify (识别) them. And a 4-year-old parrot in the US has been recognized by Guinness World Records after
correctly identifying 12 objects in 3 minutes.
That record-breaking bird is an African grey parrot named Apollo, who lives in Florida. He can identify things
like books, bugs and socks. He has become popular on TikTok, where he has about 3 million followers. And aTikTok video of Apollo asking questions in 2023 has been watched 66 million times.
The parrot is owned by a couple named Dalton and Victoria Mason. They’re video creators and they’ve been
working hard to train the bird. The owners say they teach Apollo as if he were a child of preschool age. “We teach
him as much as we can,” the couple told Guinness, adding that they focus on (聚焦) things that Apollo is interested
in.
Researchers have found that some African grey parrots are able to do better at some cognitive (认知的) tasks
than 5-year-old children. And Apollo’s owners plan to keep teaching the bird to see how much he can learn and
how many more records he can break.
12. The parrot was recognized by Guinness because he could ________.
A. say hello to visitors B. give names to things around C. repeat the words people
speak D. identify 12 things in 3 minutes
13. What can Apollo do according to paragraph 2?

C. They make him do difficult actions.
D. They pay attention to what he prefers.
15. Which might be the best title for the text?

三、阅读表达（共4小题，满分15分；其中第44小题6分，其余每小题3分）
阅读下面短文，根据短文后的要求答题。
A well-known 75-year Harvard study shows that children who do chores can become more independent and
successful when they grow up. In fact, chores are very important to children’s future development, as they bring
many benefits (益处).
When children do chores, they can get a sense of achievement because they can see the results soon after
finishing the chores. Especially when their parents say thanks for their help and tell them they’ve made the day
easier, they will know they are useful and able to help their families. This experience can also encourage children to
be more active outside of the family.
What’s more, they will learn that it is everyone’s duty (责任) to take part in the household chores. It helps to
stop them from growing up spoiled (惯坏的). Life doesn’t simply offer everything on a plate. It takes much effort
to turn what we want into reality.
Besides, they will learn how to manage their time through chores. Doing chores from a young age helps
children to get used to them. Children learn to include them in their day with all other activities such as studies and
play. Time management is a useful skill, too. When they grow up, they need to balance different parts of their life
like work and family.
Chores also teach important life skills. Chores are usually related to household tasks-washing dishes, sweeping
the floor, making the bed, etc. These are all life skills that children need to develop. The only way to learn is by
doing.
Chores aren’t just about keeping the house clean. They are life lessons.
