Can it be easier?
Zhang Xirui from Shenzhen Gezhi Academy in Guangdong got a good idea. He made a useful tool—a smart homework collection (收集) robot. This made him win the first prize in the 20th Guangdong Provincial Children's Invention Awards.
This robot uses RFID (射 频 识 别 ) technology to help collect students' notebooks. Each student's notebook has a special RFID tag (标签) with the name and the subject. Students only need to put their notebooks on the robot, and the machine "sees" the notebook, reads its tag and takes it out of the name list. "Teachers can find out who doesn't hand in homework by using a phone APP." Zhang Xirui said.
The robot is the second-generation (第二代) model made by Zhang. Now, he's planning to make a third-generation robot and hopes it can read lots of RFID tags from far away. That means if there is a special tag on your notebook, the robot can quickly read the information of the notebooks. Zhang believes AI is the key to make life easier for us.

D、To find out who doesn't hand in homework, teachers need to put students' notebooks on the robots.(3)、What can we learn about the third-generation robot?A、It helped Zhang Xirui win the first prize. B、It will take long for the robot to read the information. C、It may read the information of the notebooks very quickly. D、It can read the information of the notebooks without special tags.(4)、Which of the following words can best describe Zhang Xirui?A、Creative. B、Serious. C、Funny. D、Lucky.(5)、In which part of a newspaper can you read the text?A、Sports. B、Science. C、History. D、Art.六、短文填空(共 5 小题,每小题 1 分,满分 5 分)

When winter arrives, many countries are cold and snowy. The cold makes some people too lazy to take a shower. So how often should we take a shower in winter?
According to a scientist in the US, for young people, it's best to take a shower once every 2 to 3 days in winter. And use cleaning products with harsh chemicals (刺激性化学物质) like soap as little as they can.
Then is it better to take a shower in the morning or at night?
Taking a shower in the morning can clear your mind and help you feel full of energy at work. .
It will also improve the blood circulation (血液循环) and relax the body, which will help you sleep more soundly.
A scientist says, "Hot showers will let you feel comfortable during cold weather. But if it's long, it is actually hard on the skin." The hot water and the evaporation (蒸发) of water off the skin once out of the shower make the skin become drier. So you need to use moisturizer (润肤霜) while skin is not fully dry after a shower.
A. In fact, there is no answer to this question.
B. But our skin needs to be cleaned to keep healthy.
C. Some people choose to take a shower with cold water in summer.
