(2020·遼寧五校模擬)While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some elementary school students in Auckland, New Zealand. They became the world’s first kids to be “taught” by a digital teacher. Before you start imagining a humanlike robot walking around the classroom, Will is just an avatar(化身) that appears on the students’ desktops, or smartphone screens, when ordered to come.
The autonomous animation(動畫制作) platform has been modeled after the human brain and nervous system, allowing it to show humanlike behavior. The digital teacher is assigned to teach “Be sustainable with energy”—a free program for Auckland elementary schools.
Just like the humans it replaced, Will is able to instantly react to the students’ responses to the topic. Thanks to a webcam and microphone, the avatar not only responds to questions the kids may have, but also picks up nonverbal cues(暗示). For instance, if a student smiles at Will, he responds by smiling back. This twoway interaction not only helps attract the students’ attention, but also allows the program’s developers to monitor their involvement, and make changes if needed.
Nikhil Ravishankar believes that Willlike avatars could be a novel way to catch the attention of the next generation. He says, “I have a lot of hope in this technology as a means to deliver costeffective, rich, educational experience in the future.”
The program, in place since August 2018, has been a great success thus far. Ravishankar says, “What was fascinating to me was the reaction of the children to Will. The way they look at the world is so creative and different, and Will really captured their attention.” However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.
【解題導(dǎo)語】 新西蘭奧克蘭的一些小學(xué)生成為世界上第一批由數(shù)字化老師“教”的孩子。數(shù)字化老師Will能和學(xué)生積極互動,吸引學(xué)生的注意力。

A.A digital teacher taught them.
B.They first saw something digital.
C.This was the start of a new school year.
D.They could get close to smartphone screens.
A 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句“They became the world’s first kids to be ‘taught’ by a digital teacher.”可知,他們成為世界上第一批由數(shù)字化老師“教”的孩子。由此可知,對奧克蘭的一些小學(xué)生來說其特別之處在于有一位數(shù)字化老師“教”他們。故選A。
2.What is the benefit of this twoway interaction?
A.It can smile back.
B.It can use a microphone.
C.It can talk any topic for free.
D.It can change if necessary.
D 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“This twoway interaction not only helps attract the students’ attention... and make changes if needed.”可知,這種雙向的互動不僅有助于吸引學(xué)生的注意力,還允許該程序的開發(fā)人員監(jiān)視他們的參與度,并在需要時做出改變。由此可知,這種雙向互動的好處就在于其可以在必要的情況下適時進(jìn)行改變。故選D。
3.What’s the author’s attitude to Will’s replacing human educators soon?
A.Optimistic. B.Doubtful.
C.Unclear. D.Disapproving.
D 解析:觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.”可知,作者認(rèn)為無論它變得多么受歡迎,Will都不太可能在短期內(nèi)取代人類教育工作者。由此可推知,D項符合題意。
4.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.New Hightech Contributes to Education
B.The World’s First Digital Teacher Appears in the Classroom
C.The World’s First Digital Teacher, a Help to Students

B 解析:標(biāo)題歸納題。本文為新聞報道類文章,第一段交代了文章的中心,即世界上第一個數(shù)字化老師走進(jìn)課堂“教”孩子們,然后文章后面的段落圍繞這個中心,交代了具體的上課內(nèi)容、交流方式及對這種授課方式的看法。故B項最適合作本文標(biāo)題。

(2020·惠州第二次調(diào)研)I realized something this morning. I have been writing now for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer tells you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won’t leave you alone until you write them down. I didn’t have a computer, word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.
When I was done I didn’t know how to share it. There was no Internet back then, no smart phones, and no social media. I sought out the editor of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write. I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even selfpublished two collections of my stories in book form.
Through my writing I slowly became more than I was. In my writings I encountered my highest self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold, and with everything we do, we are writing our own life story.
Lance Wubbels once wrote:“I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day, line by line, write it well.”

In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well.”可知,作者在自己的作品中,遇到了最好的自己,發(fā)現(xiàn)了所有的人身上都有的善良和光明,還找到了偉大的愛和歡樂,并鼓勵別人也選擇愛和歡樂。由此可推知,作者認(rèn)為寫作利己利人。故選B。
8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.A Way to Be a Writer

(2020·佛山高三質(zhì)檢)While an entire month free of homework or tests may sound too good to be true, that is exactly what the students at Sturenskolan School in Boden, Sweden were treated to in April. What’s more, if the results of the experiment prove encouraging, starting 2019, the middle schoolers will never have to worry about afterschool work or tests, aside from the national examinations, which are compulsive for students across the country.
The school’s principal, Petronella Sirkka, who came up with the idea, said, “We are constantly receiving new reports that our children feel bad. And that’s because they have a high level of stress all the time. This is our way of trying to reduce that stress.”
The educator says that while banning homework and tests sounds radical(激進(jìn)的), it makes sense given the changes in the curriculum and approaches to education. While in the past students were primarily subjected to memorizing facts, learning today is all about reflection and analysis. As a result, it is often harder for kids, especially those with little support at home, to comprehend the material by themselves.
Sirkka is not the only one who believes afterschool work does not help students learn. In March 2018, another principal in Canada also decided to do away with homework. They hope parents will spend the extra time reading to their kids.
While the longterm impact of the recent decisions made by the two educators remains to be seen, the experiment has already proved successful in Finland which has done away with homework, grades, and even teaching by subjects for many years. Yet, Finnish students always rank high in the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) tests especially in math and science but they have the least homework! Hopefully, it will only be a matter of time before US educators follow their lead and ban afterschool work as well!
【解題導(dǎo)語】 本文是一篇說明文。瑞典一所學(xué)校在四月份取消了學(xué)生的家庭作業(yè)和考試,這是該校校長Petronella Sirkka看到學(xué)生作業(yè)負(fù)擔(dān)太重而提出的舉措,且芬蘭采取的類似做法已獲成功。
1.The students at Sturenskolan School had no homework in April because ________.
A.the headmaster was experimenting with her idea
B.they needed to do some experiments during the month
C.they were busy preparing for the national examinations
D.the headmaster had to carry out the government’s policy
A 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句中的“The school’s principal, Petronella Sirkka, who came up with the idea”,并結(jié)合第一段的內(nèi)容可知,Sturenskolan學(xué)校的學(xué)生們在四月份沒有家庭作業(yè)和考試是該校校長提出的想法,故A項正確。
2.What makes children’s learning hard nowadays?
A.Children have to do more analyzing.
B.The approach to education is complex.
C.Children get no support at home and school.
D.There are many more facts to memorize.
A 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二、三句“While in the past students were primarily subjected to memorizing facts, learning today is all about reflection and analysis. As a result, it is often harder for kids, especially those with little support at home, to comprehend the material by themselves.”可知,在過去,學(xué)生主要是被要求記住事實,而如今學(xué)生需要的是反思和分析。因此,孩子們往往很難自己理解這些材料。據(jù)此可知,反思和分析讓孩子們的學(xué)習(xí)更加困難。故A項正確。
3.What does Petronella Sirkka most likely advise parents to do?
A.Help children with their homework.
B.Free children from afterschool housework.
C.Spend more time reading to their children.
D.Communicate with teachers from time to time.
C 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段尾句“They hope parents will spend the extra time reading to their kids.”可推知,Petronella Sirkka很可能會建議父母花些時間為他們的孩子們閱讀,故C項正確。
4.What can we infer about the students in Finland?
A.They study the hardest at school.
B.They have a more relaxing school life.
C.They enjoy great success after graduation.
D.They all have a talent for math and science.
B 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)尾段第一句中的“the experiment has already proved successful in Finland which has done away with homework, grades, and even teaching by subjects for many years”可知,多年來,芬蘭已經(jīng)取消了家庭作業(yè)、成績等級,甚至科目教學(xué)。據(jù)此可推知,芬蘭學(xué)生的學(xué)校生活更加輕松,故B項正確。

(2020·陜西部分學(xué)校摸底)A biologist once criticized for stealing eggs from the nests of the rarest bird in the world has been awarded the “Nobel Prize” of conservation after his methods saved nine species from extinction.
Professor Carl Jones won the 2016 Indianapolis Prize—the highest accolade in the field of animal conservation—for his 40 years of work in Mauritius, where he saved an endangered kestrel(紅隼) from becoming the next Great Auk.
When the 65yearold first travelled to the east African island in the 1970s, he was told to close down a project to save the Mauritius kestrel. At the time there were just four left in the wild, making it the rarest bird on Earth. However, he stayed, using the techniques of captive breeding(人工繁殖), which involved snatching eggs from the birds’ nests and hatching them under incubators(孵化器), prompting the mothers to lay another set of eggs in the wild.
A decade later, the number of Mauritius kestrels had soared to over 300 and today there are around 400 in the wild. The biologist has also made an effort to bring other rare species back from the edge of extinction, including the pink pigeon, echo parakeet and Rodrigues warbler.
Prof. Jones was awarded the $250,000 prize at a ceremony in London.
“As a young man in my 20s, I certainly didn’t enjoy the stress and the tension of the criticism I received.” Reflecting on the start of his career, he said the Mauritius kestrel project had been seen as a “dead loss” at the time. In the 1970s there was fierce opposition to the captive breeding techniques, with critics arguing that they were too risky and took the emphasis off breeding in the wild.
Prof. Jones has devoted his whole life to his work, only becoming a father for the first time at 53. He said receiving the prize was particularly important to him, because it proved that his work to save birds was right.
【解題導(dǎo)語】 卡爾·瓊斯教授因偷稀缺鳥類的蛋而被指責(zé),后來在動物保護(hù)領(lǐng)域被授予諾貝爾獎,他用自己的方法挽救了九種瀕危物種。
5.What does the underlined word “accolade” mean in Paragraph 2?
A.Return. B.Level.
C.Honor. D.Research.
C 解析:詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞前的“won the 2016 Indianapolis Prize”并結(jié)合語境可推知,畫線詞意為“榮譽(yù)”。故選C項。
6.According to the passage, Great Auk is ________.
A.a(chǎn)n endangered bird B.a(chǎn)n extinct bird
C.a(chǎn) popular bird D.a(chǎn) fierce bird
B 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“he saved an endangered kestrel(紅隼) from becoming the next Great Auk”可推知,Great Auk是一種已滅絕的鳥。故選B項。
7.What can we know from the figures in Paragraph 4?
A.Taking eggs from the nests has worked well.
B.The wild environment for kestrel has changed a lot.
C.Kestrel has adapted to the life in the wild.
D.It’s difficult to protect kestrel.
A 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后兩句以及第四段第一句“A decade later, the number of Mauritius kestrels had soared to over 300 and today there are around 400 in the wild.”可知,當(dāng)時野生毛里求斯紅隼只剩4只,瓊斯教授采用人工繁殖的方法來救助毛里求斯紅隼,10年后,毛里求斯紅隼的數(shù)量飆升到300多只,如今野生紅隼約有400只。由此可推知,從鳥巢中拿出鳥蛋的方法效果很好。故選A項。
8.Prof. Jones’ idea of taking eggs from the birds’ nests________.
A.was proved of no use
B.was widely accepted
C.was promoted officially
D.was criticized by some people
D 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“dead loss” “In the 1970s there was fierce opposition to the captive breeding techniques...in the wild.”可知,瓊斯教授從鳥巢中拿出鳥蛋來進(jìn)行人工繁殖的方法受到了一些人的批評。故選D項。
Ⅱ.讀后續(xù)寫
閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。續(xù)寫的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右。
A tornado(龍卷風(fēng)) hit a small town nearby, leaving many families completely destroyed. Afterward all the local newspapers carried many human interest stories featuring some of the families who suffered the most difficult period to appeal to people’s attention and assistance.
One Sunday, a particular picture especially touched me. A young woman stood in front of a simple mobile home, a depressed expression on her face. A young boy, seven or eight years old, stood at her side, eyes downcast. Hiding behind her skirt was a tiny girl who stared into the camera, wide eyes with confusion and fear. The article that went with the picture gave the clothing size of each family member. With growing interest, I noticed that sizes of the family closely matched ours. This would be a good opportunity to teach my sevenyearold twins, Brad and Brett, and threeyearold Meghan to help those less fortunate than themselves.
“We have so much. And these poor people now have nothing,” I said. “We’ll share what we have with them.” I brought three large boxes down from the room upstairs and placed them on the living room floor. Meghan watched seriously, as the boys and I filled one of the boxes with canned goods and foods. While I sorted through our clothes, I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. The boys were pleased to join. Brad rose and went to his room fast. He came back bringing his action figures that he played with not so frequently. Brett also jumped up and ran to fetch some of his Matchbox cars and airplane models. Meghan watched quietly as the boys piled up abandoned toys.
The boys placed the objects they had chosen to donate into one of the boxes while I filled the third box with clothes. Meghan walked up with Lucy, her worn, faded, bestloved rag doll hugged tightly to her chest. “I’ll help you find something for the little girl, too,” I said to the little Meghan.
Paragraph 1:
“Mommy, I will give Lucy to them,” Meghan turned to me._______________________

Paragraph 2:
Recognizing what little Meghan’s gesture meant, I removed my old jacket from the box of clothes.________________________________________________________________________

One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“Mommy, I will give Lucy to them,” Meghan turned to me. “Oh, honey,” I said. “You don’t have to give Lucy. You love her so much.” Meghan nodded seriously, eyes glistening with tears. “Lucy makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe she’ll make that little girl happy, too.” She paused in front of the box that held the toys, pressed her round little face into Lucy’s flat face, gave her a final kiss, then laid her gently on top of the other toys. The boys watched, openmouthed, as their baby sister placed her favorite doll in the box.
Paragraph 2:
Recognizing what little Meghan’s gesture meant, I removed my old jacket from the box of clothes. I replaced it with the new hunter green jacket that I had bought on sale last week. I believed the young woman in the picture would like it and fit it as much as I did. The boys had also been inspired by our behavior and carried their beloved things. We all wished the family could pass the difficult period as soon as possible and that they would love the things we gave them with all our heart.
