Brian looked at the ugly gray walls of his bedroom. Soon the hated walls would be covered, but not with
paint as he had first planned. Brian had been disappointed to learn that the house owner would not allow painting.
For weeks he was unable to understand: without using paint, how could he cover the walls? But, as Grandmother
always said, “Necessity is the mother of invention.” So Brian did some thinking, and with a little help from his
mother, he came up with a great plan.
This morning, Mom had needed to stop at the mall to buy a book and Brian went along. There, Brian noticed
a large poster of Harry Potter and the Hogwarts School on the wall. Next to it was a poster showing the cover of
No Arm in Left Field, a baseball novel that Brian had read several times. “This is it,” Brian thought excitedly. “I’ll
cover the walls with posters!”
When he left the mall, Brian had an armful of posters and a box of tacks (大头钉). At home, he headed
straight to his room. First he took out the posters and spread them out on his bed, his desk, and most of the floor.
Next he found out the size of each poster, and then the walls. He wanted to cover as much of those ugly walls as
possible! It took all afternoon to work out the best preparation. He drew it on paper, making changes until it was
just right. When Dad came home at dinnertime, Brian was ready to tack up the posters.
“Come see my room, Dad,” called Brian. “It’s going to be great!” But when Dad came into the bedroom, he
looked worried. “The house owner said we could not put any holes in the walls. You can’t use tacks, Brian. I am
sorry.”
Brian’s joy slowly disappeared. He would stay with the boring gray walls forever. Maybe there was no way
to solve this problem after all. How could you hang posters without using tacks? After all, posters would not stick
to the walls by themselves!
“What would stick to the walls?” Brian wondered. Then he smiled. Tape, that’s what! Brian took a piece of
tape and made it into a circle. He made sure the sticky part of the tape was on the outside. This would work, for
sure!
29．In this story, what is Brian’s main problem?
A．Being told not to use tacks.
4 初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季B．Getting permission to paint the room.
C．Working out a good preparation for his posters.
D．Finding a proper way to cover his bedroom walls.
30．Which word can best describe Brian?
A．Hard-working. B．Kind. C．Smart. D．Brave.
31．In what order did the following happen in the story?
a. Dad came back and warned Brain not to use tacks.
b. Brian spent a whole afternoon getting ready.
c. The room took a completely new look.
d. Brian bought lots of posters and tacks.
e. Brian was not allowed to paint the walls.
A．e-d-b-a-c B．a-e-d-b-c
C．e-a-c-b-d D．a-b-d-c-e
32．What can we learn from the story?
A．We should never put holes in our walls.
B．We can solve problems in a creative way.
C．Kids should be allowed to paint their rooms.
D．It’s fun to have a lot of posters in our bedroom.
Gianni Golfera is in front of a group of people. His eyes are covered, but he can still show these people
something that’s amazing. First, the people choose sixty numbers as they like. After that, a helper reads the numbers
to Gianni. Then, after hearing them just a single time, Gianni repeats the numbers in the correct order from memory.
Then, he does it again—backwards!
Gianni has a very special kind of memory. He explains in his own words, “It’s a kind of memory that is
connected to what I see. It means that every idea I learn, everything I read, becomes a part of me.”
Memory is very difficult to understand. Scientists don’t really know how it works, yet. The Golfera family
genes (基因) may hold important information about Gianni’s memory. A scientist called Antonic Malgaroli plans
to compare the Golfera family’s genes with the genes of more forgetful families. “The question,” says Dr. Malgaroli.
“is how much it’s really because of the Golfera family genes, and how much comes from his practice.”
Researchers are now studying how memory and learning change the brain. They are also trying to match
those changes to genes. Some research already shows that a great memory may not depend on the right DNA only.
According to Dr. Malgaroli, “If you really need to use your brain to store some kind of information, you have this
初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季 5ability. It’s just a matter of exercise.” That is, practice and exercising the brain can improve the memory!
The same idea is true for Gianni. His genes are only part of the story. Since the age of 11, he’s been training
his brain to remember more and more. He practices continuously to improve the power of his memory. Gianni thinks
about memory, and works on it, all the time. However, Gianni’s life is not all about science. He has a normal life,
just like other people. So, researchers think Gianni’s memory is mainly because of his very hard work. Gianni agrees.
Gianni believes if there is a memory gene, he probably has it. But the success of Gianni may be more about
practice and hard work than DNA．At the same time, he might just be showing scientists that a great memory can
be made and not just born!
33．Why does the writer describe Gianni’s memory test in Paragraph 1?
A．To connect his talent to his job.
B．To show his ability to memorize.
C．To explain his amazing family genes.
D．To introduce a way of counting numbers.
34．What does the writer probably think of having a great memory?
A．Practice helps improve memory.
B．Anyone can do it with a little work.
C．Memory depends on family’s genes.
D．Forgetful people don’t have good genes.
35．What does “it” refer to in the last paragraph?
A．A great memory. B．Success.
C．A memory gene. D．Hard work.
36．Which can be the best title for the passage?
A．The importance of memory. B．The amazing genes.
C．The research of brains. D．The memory man.
6 初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季The world’s oldest known musical instruments are more than 40,000 years old. For tens of thousands of years,
humans have been making music for pleasure and to express themselves. Recently, there has been a rise in the use
of artificial intelligence (AI) to create music. Some AI music has become so popular online. The technology has
been used by lots of musicians. Some people think that using AI to produce music isn’t creative enough because it
just makes songs out of old music. What do you think? Is AI bad for new music?
Yes—AI music is not creative, says Peter
Using AI might be cheaper than paying a musician. If companies can use AI to produce popular music that
makes lots of money from people buying and listening to it, it could put musicians like me out of work. If musicians
can’t earn money from music, there will be far fewer of them creating new songs. Anyway, listening to music that
was made by a computer isn’t the same experience as listening to human-made music.
When I create songs, I put different feelings and real experiences into my work, creating songs that connect
with people at a deep level. Songs produced by AI aren’t original because the computer just makes music from the
old one. AI music isn’t completely creative.
No—AI can produce new ideas, says Mary
I’m a music lover. When I turn on my radio or headphones and a great new song comes on, it makes me feel
good. Wonderful music brings people together to sing and dance. If people are enjoying music, does it matter
whether it was made by a human or a machine?
I think music makers can use computers, which help to perfect sound and mix different layers of a song. For
them, AI is just another new technology, a tool that they can use to express ideas. It won’t replace musicians but
they can work with it. Building on AI music could save them time. It could allow much more music to be produced
and it could lead to new and special style s of music. AI could create exciting music that humans could never have
dreamed of.
Now that you’ve read a bit more about it, tell us what you think at theweekjunior.co.uk. We’ll publish the result
next week.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
37．What is the purpose of the passage?
A．To suggest what humans can do with the help of AI.
B．To show how AI helps musicians produce new ideas.
初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季 7C．To share ideas on whether AI is suitable for new music.

A．AI helps musicians make more money. B．AI music will take the place of musicians.
C．Human-made music is better than AI music. D．AI is a new tool to help musicians express ideas.
39．What does the underlined word “original” mean?
A．New and interesting. B．Similar and real.

of the first examples of ice made with milk can date back to the Tang Dynasty in China. Ice cream arrived in Europe
in the 16th century and quickly became popular in Italy and France.
43 If you go to Germany, you can buy “spaghetti” ice cream which looks like noodles with
strawberry sauce and white chocolate on the top. 44 All the things are quickly mixed in and the ice cream
is done. There is a special ice cream named Maotai ice cream in China. It chooses fresh milk and add with about 2%
of 53℃ Feitian Maotai.
8 初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季Ice cream is getting more popular across the world. Customers want new, exciting taste, and lots of people
are turning to healthier ice cream without dairy milk and cream. 45
A．In Thailand, i-tim-pad is made by pouring mixture onto a freezing plate.
B．Next time you taste ice cream, you’re enjoying food that is thousands of years old.
C．Let’s find out the story behind this delicious taste.
D．However, there are records of people making iced food in 200 BC in China.
