one said a word. The whole class was 15 .
“Anyone?” Mr. Allen smiled at his students. “Let’s brainstorm some answers.” He swirled (旋动) the glass
gently. The ice cubes bobbed up and down in the water, then floated back to the 16 . “How about some
guesses…” He paused, scanning the students’ faces. “Any guesses?” The students 17 quiet. A few of
them looked at each other and shrugged. Others tapped their fingers.
“What’s the first thing that comes to mind? Remember, there are 18 right or wrong answers.” Mr.
Allen did his best to keep his smile warm and inviting. Still, no one in the class spoke up. The students tried to
19 Mr. Allen’s gaze (注视). Mr. Allen scratched his head. “Okay,” he said. “How about this—who can give
me the worst answer you can think of?”
“The worst one?” asked Miguel from the back of the room.
“That’s right.” Mr. Allen nodded.
“Ooh!” exclaimed Martika. “I’ve got it! Things floating because …they have wings!” Alex snorted (哼), “If
they had wings, they’d be 20 not floating.”
Martika rolled her eyes at him. “It’s supposed to be a bad answer. What’s your bad answer?”“Uhh …well …” Alex’s face turned red. “Magic?”
“That’s a 21 one!” said Mr. Allen quickly.
“Sometimes science can seem like magic 22 we work out what’s going on.”
“Maybe things float because ghosts are carrying them?” Tyler said.
“Or invisible giants!” added Ella.
“Well, I think clouds float in the sky so we can lie in the grass and look at cloud 23 ,” giggled

In the videos posted, we can see the robot preparing dishes on its own, from cutting vegetables to breaking
eggs. It’s also good at watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and washing clothes, even shaking the pillow
(枕头).
Sounds good? Well, another video posted by researchers may disappoint some people. Mobile Aloha isn’t
good at doing housework on its own.
Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it
can’t work well without a human “teaching” it. So, it may break dishes, bump into things and even burn a pot.
The robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time, said the team after they did more research on it.
For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent. In short, it’s far from perfect.
In fact, AI robots are good at tasks such as math and playing chess, but they face challenges when it comes to
simpler actions like cleaning. And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha. For example, if its body doesn’t move correctly
even just with a small deviation (偏差), its arm may move too far to pick up a glass.
“Robots are not ready to take over the world,” the team posted online.
28．Mobile Aloha is a ________.
A．video B．robot C．camera D．mobile phone
29．From the passage, we can know Mobile Aloha can’t do________.
A． B．
C． D．
30．What’s the meaning of underlined word “disappoint” in paragraph 2?
A．Dissatisfy. B．Regret. C．Support. D．Encourage.C
Brrrring! The bell rang. Will couldn’t wait to see Mia. They’d been working for weeks on a song for
Saturday’s band competition but they’d been stuck on the ending. He waved when he saw a face jogging toward
him. “Hey, buddy! Ready for some hoops after school?” Liam spun and shot an imaginary ball into the air.
Uh-oh. Will had forgotten all about basketball but he was dying to try out the new ending. Maybe if he had a
reason to run away ... “Hey, Liam,” Will said, “I don’t feel so great.” He gave a small cough for effect. “Another
time?” “Sure, no problem.” Liam said. Lying was easier than I imagined. Will thought.
Crash. The drum cymbal shook as Will hit it a final time. “Perfect!” Mia played her guitar with a stroke.
“That sounded great, guys.” Liam came with his eyebrows raised. “Thanks,” Will said. “It was weird. I came home
and suddenly felt fine.” He hoped his mind could keep up with his new lie. “I would’ve met you at the court, but
then Mia stopped by, and ...” “But, Will, I didn’t stop by. You called me. Why did ...” Mia said, shaking her head. “I
meant that I called to, uh, ask a homework question, and ...” Will continued, coughing, “I can’t remember how it
went exactly, but I’m feeling better now.”
“Well, that’s good.” Liam smiled, but it was forced. He put a small case onto the couch. Will looked at it.
Captain Crush, Will and Liam’s favorite movie. Before Will could think of something to say, Liam left and Mia
followed. Will grabbed the movie and played it. He needed a distraction.
In the movie, an evil man tricked Captain Crush, but Crush figured him out in the end, saving the town and
the man too. The evil man’s little lie turned into a big mess! Will thought. Just like my lie with Liam.
The next morning, Will met Liam at the bus stop. I need an excuse for what happened. Will thought. But
then he remembered the evil man in Captain Crush. “I’m really sorry about lying to you yesterday. I wanted to
work on my song, but I didn’t want to hurt your feelings.” “Did you come up with an ending?” Liam asked. Will
nodded and Liam’s face lit up. “That’s great. You could have just told me. I know that competition is important to
you.” Of course, Liam understood.
“I guess the truth would have been easier, huh?” said Will. “Can we play really soon?” “What about
Saturday?” Liam asked. Will hesitated (犹豫). The band competition was that night. “I really need to practice then.
Is Sunday OK?” “Sure. But get ready.” Liam shot a pretend ball over Will’s head. “Swish! My three-pointer is
pretty good.” Will high-fived his best friend. “That’s the truth!”
31．How did Will feel after his first lie worked?
A．Thankful. B．Pleased. C．Doubtful. D．Ashamed.
32．What is Will most probably going to do?
A．Say sorry to Mia as well later.
B．Promise Mia that he will try his best.C．Join the basketball team with Liam.
D．Watch Captain Crush with Liam again.
33．Which is the best title for this story?
A．A Little Lie B．Lying Is Easier C．A Small Case D．Truth Is Easier
D
Blue whales have made themselves at home in a part of the Indian Ocean where they hadn’t been seen for
many years, according to a study published late last year. The blue whale, an endangered (濒临灭绝的) species, is
the largest animal on Earth. These whales can grow to about 100 feet long, and the animal’s heart alone can be the
size of a small car.
Blue whales were filmed in the waters around the Seychelles in 2020 and 2021. The Seychelles are a group of
islands that make up the smallest African country. Hunters almost completely wiped out (消灭) blue whales in the
area in the 1960s.
During this recent expedition (考察), however, scientists spotted (注意到) several of the creatures (生物).
Research suggests that these whales are not just passing through — they are staying in the region for months.
The discovery was made with the help of a “sound trap”, an object that was fitted with recording devices and
batteries and placed on the seafloor in November 2021. It was left there for a year, recording 15 minutes every
hour. When scientists studied the recordings, they discovered the blue whales’ recognizable song, which is so deep
that it can’t be heard naturally by human ears.
The whale songs were detected (监测) between December and April, a common time for blue whales to breed
(哺乳) and nurse their young. Kathleen Stafford, one of the researchers, told BBC News that the scientists think the
noise was the singing of male whales. “They sing during the breeding season,” she explained. This could mean that
the Seychelles is an important breeding area or nursery site for the species.
The government of the Seychelles has been making major efforts to protect the oceans around the islands since
2015. The appearance of these whales shows that its work seems to have made some progress. Stafford said that the
Seychelles, which doesn’t have many big ships sailing nearby, could be “a nice, quiet, safe place for blue whales.”
34．What can we learn about the blue whales?
A．The number of them is still large now.
B．They can be the same size as a small car.
C．They were once completely killed by hunters.
D．They like to stay in a clean, quiet and safe waters.
35．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 5?
A．To explain the results of the discovery.B．To describe the way the discovery was carried out.
C．To offer some opinions about the discovery.
D．To list the difficulties of the discovery.
36．When can people possibly hear the whale songs?
A．When summer comes.
B．When ships passes by.
C．When blue whales look after their babies.
D．When blue whales are happy.
37．The passage mainly talks about .
A．blue whales are back in Indian Ocean again
B．a sound trap can be of great help to film blue whales
C．the government has done a lot in protecting blue whales
D．it’s very important to help blue whales find a home

After-school activities can be a wonderful thing and continue our children’s education through the school
holidays. However any old activity does not do the right job, every activity should be useful and helpful and of
course, joyful. So what matters when we make the decision as to what our youngster is going to take part in?
Above all, you should know what you expect your child to learn from the activity, for example, learning how
to play a musical instrument, how to draw or whatever. Any activity should be a challenge to a child. Taking on the
challenge and achievement can help a quiet or shy child become more confident.
Safety must be the most important thing that you should consider of any activity. But remember nothing can
be made to be 100% safe and still be interesting. You should talk to an instructor and ask questions before deciding
this is the course you want your child to be part of. Be careful of the activity itself with too much competition
because that can cause problems and kill off enjoyment. Do not forget that this is costing your money so try to be
sure that you are getting value for it. Of course there’s no doubt that discussing things with your child first is also a
good idea.
Parents have different opinions about it though. On the one hand there are those who decide all the things for
the child and adults make the running. On the other hand there are those who much prefer to leave the child to
choose on his or her own and decide what they want to do during their holiday. Some say that the second method
encourages children to better think for themselves and that the first makes them depend more on adults. Only you
can decide which one you are and which is the best for you and your child. Remember that you are only young
once and childhood will be gone soon forever. All work and no play is not a good idea.
