For a long time, China was isolated (隔离) from the rest of the ancient world due to natural barriers. The Himalayan Mountains lie to the west and the Gobi Desert to the north. To the south are more mountains and seas. To the east lies the great Pacific Ocean that stretches all the way to the west coast of the United States. So Chinese culture developed all by itself.
We know the Chinese had a written language as early as 1500 BC. That is when the Shang dynasty ruled northern China. You can see that Chinese writıng is very different from the writing in other countries. The Chinese use a different character for each word. People in many countries have to learn only 26 letters, but people in China have to memorize about 600 characters before they can do basic reading and writing.
Many inventions were made and used in China before the rest of the world even heard of them. Around the time of Christ, the Chinese were making silk, porcelain (瓷器) and paper. By this time, the Chinese did trade with other people. Chinese silk was in great demand, even in Europe.
By 600 AD, the Chinese had invented printing and used printing presses (印刷机). A few centuries later, they made the magnetic compass (指南针), which was a great help to sailors. A compass can tell north from south, and enabled the great journeys of discovery.
The Chinese were the first to discover how to make explosive powder, the kind that we use both for gunpowder and for fireworks.
From all this, you can see that the Chinese may have been isolated from other people. However, they were very busy making things that the rest of the world found really exciting and helpful when people learnt about them.
(1)、According to this passage, what's the biggest difference between the writing of Chinese and other languages?A、Chinese is more beautiful. B、Chinese has a longer history. C、A different character is used for each word. D、Fewer words should be remembered before reading and writing.(2)、What's the meaning of the underlined word "demand" in paragraph 3?A、Fashion. B、Danger. C、Development. D、Need.(3)、What invention is NOT mentioned in the passage?A、Gun. B、Printing. C、Compass. D、Porcelain.(4)、What's the best title of this passage?A、The Four Great Inventions B、Isolated Ancient China C、The New Development of China D、The Great Achievements of Ancient China(5)、Which of the following is TRUE about ancient China?A、The Chinese had contact with other countries before 1500 BC.
B、The Chinese invented silk, porcelain, and paper after the rest of the world.
C、The Chinese created the compass to help sailors navigate the seas.
D、The Chinese had to learn only 26 characters to read and write. -

When I was a little girl, I liked to listen to my father telling his childhood stories. The image of him and his friends climbing to the top of a tree to get a bird's nest hung in my mind for quite a while. I dreamed of peeking (窥视) into a bird's nest that had eggs or small baby birds inside, like my father often did when he was a boy.
But that was almost impossible. First, youngsters today are not allowed to climb trees. People think it is too dangerous. Second, we don't have so many birds' nests around anymore. The healthy eco-system (生态系统) of Dad's youth is slowly disappearing.
However, one day, my dream came true. It was a Saturday morning. My dad's best friend, who I call Uncle Ben, invited us to visit his business. He sold used cars at his shop outside the city. There were a lot of trees around it. Uncle Ben led us through the parking lot, pointing out all kinds of different cars — different makes (品牌), models, years and prices. As we walked across the lot, we suddenly found something unusual —a bird's nest on top of the back wheel of a big truck!
I was excited to be so close. I looked at the nest in amazement. It was real —a real bird's nest with a few eggs sitting inside. The nest looked strong and warm. How smart the little bird was to make such a pretty nest. And how creative it was to build the nest on the wheel for shelter (庇护) in this cold Canadian weather!
Uncle Ben took a look at the eggs. He said it was a robin's (知更鸟的) nest. To protect the nest from being harmed, he suggested that we move it to a tree beside the parking lot.
We all sincerely hoped that the robin found her new home and her baby birds.
(1)、What did the writer's father often do when he was a boy?A、He often told stories about birds B、He often caught small baby birds. C、He often peeked into a bird's nest.(2)、The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to ____.A、the city B、Uncle Ben's shop C、the back wheel(3)、Why did they move the nest to a tree?A、Because Uncle Ben could not stand it. B、Because the big truck would be sold soon. C、Because they didn't want it to get harmed.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、Dream Come True! B、Taking Care of Birds! C、A Robin's Lucky Day!(5)、 What can we infer about the writer's childhood?A、She liked climbing trees as much as her father. B、She dreamed of seeing birds' nests but couldn't because of safety concerns. C、She visited her father's friend's shop often as a child. D、She disliked hearing her father's childhood stories. -

Jane, a reporter, is collecting information for the local newspaper. She is interested in the following things introduced in a magazine.
Smart Schoolbag
Forget to pack the books you need into your schoolbag in the morning rush?
A schoolboy aged 11 has invented a schoolbag. It tells you which books to pack. A small computer and a scanner (扫描装置) are fixed in the beg. As each book is put into the bag, it is checked by the scanner. If any book is missing, a message will be shown on the computer screen to remind you.
Weather Sweets

A university makes that happen. It uses a 3D printer to create sweets based on the weather information of a certain day.
The shapes of the sweets are affected (影响) by wind speed.
The colors of the sweets are decided by temperature. The sweets act as a weather record of the day when they are made.
Sunrise Bed
It's hard for you to get up in the morning, isn't it?
To help you get up, a company has created a "tool"—a sun rise bed.
It wakes you up gently as a sunrise does. Lights built into the bed turn on and start to get brighter and brighter. When the lights are fully on, soft music will begin to play.

"Well, I'll eat the cake," Alice said. If I get taller, I can reach the key on the table. And if I get smaller, I can go under the door into the garden." Then she finished the cake very soon.
"I shall be as tall as a house in a minute," she said. She tried to look down at her feet. And could only just see them.
Just then her head hit the ceiling(天花板)of the room. She was now about three metres tall. Quickly, she took the key from the table and hurried to the garden door. But she was too tall to go through the door. She began to cry. The tears ran down her face, and soon there was a large pool of salt water all around her on the floor. Suddenly, she heard a voice, and she stopped crying to listen."Oh, the Duchess(公爵夫人),the Duchess! She'll be very angry! I'm late, and she's waiting for me, Oh dear, oh dear!" It was the White Rabbit again. He was hurrying down the long room, with a pair of white gloves in one hand and a fan in the other hand. Alice was afraid, but she needed help. So she said in a low voice, "Oh, please, sir—"
Her voice frightened(使惊恐)the Rabbit. He dropped the gloves and the fan, and ran away quickly.
Alice picked up the gloves and the fan. The room was very hot, so she cooled down with the fan. She said, "Oh dear! How strange everything is today! Shall I get smaller during the night?"
She began to feel very unhappy again, but then she looked down at her hand. She was wearing one of the Rabbit's white gloves. "How did I get it on my hand?" she thought. "Oh, I'm getting smaller again! I'm already less than a meter tall and getting smaller every second! How can I stop it?" She saw the fan in her other hand. "It must be the fan!" she thought, and quickly she dropped it.
She was now very, very small, and the key was still lying on the table.
"Things are worse than ever," thought poor Alice. She turned away from the door, and fell into sail water, right up to her neck. At first she thought it was the sea, but then she saw it was the pool of her own tears.
"Oh, why did I cry so much?" said Alice. She swam around and looked for a way out, but the pool was very big. Just then she saw an animal in the water near her. It looked like a large animal to Alice, but it was only a mouse.
"Shall I speak to it? thought Alice. "Everything is very strange here, so perhaps a mouse can speak.
Then she began, "Oh, Mouse, do you know the way out of this pool? I am very tired of swimming."
But the mouse looked at her with its little eyes and said nothing.
Perhaps it doesn't understand English, thought Alice. "Perhaps it's a French mouse." So she began again, and said in French, "Where is my cat?"(This was the first sentence in her French book.)
The mouse jumped half out of the water and looked at her angrily.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" cried Alice quickly. "Of course, you don't like cats, do you?
"No. I don't like cats," the mouse replied.

My dad was a big fan of tea. He always asked me, "Lingling, how about enjoying a cup of tea with me?" I always refused and thought it was too boring. But one day, I accepted, and I was glad I did that.
That day, as usual, Dad made the tea silently. Sitting by his side, I kept silent, too. Through his peaceful moves, I felt the steam (蒸汽) rising from the teapot and cups. After Dad poured the boiling water into the teapot, the tea leaves opened slowly. Then the water turned green little by little, as if someone was drawing a beautiful Chinese painting.
I took a cup and tasted it. It was a little bitter (苦的) at first. But when I tasted it again, the tea left a wonderful taste. I even felt a sweetness.
I suddenly realized that life is just like a cup of tea. The world around us is like the boiling water and the people are like the leaves. The leaves can give off their delicate fragrance (微妙的香味) only through hot water. Similarly, we must also go through difficulties in our life: Maybe we must face bitterness in the beginning, but we can choose to fight for the sweetness ahead.
(1)、Why did the writer refuse to drink tea with her father at first?A、Because she didn't have time. B、Because she didn't like drinking tea. C、Because she thought it was boring. D、Because she wanted to do another thing.(2)、What can we know from the text?A、The writer's father lost his job. B、The writer likes the tea leaves' change. C、The writer's father didn't like the bitter tea. D、The writer could always solve difficulties wisely.(3)、What will the writer most probably agree with?A、A book holds a house of gold. B、Share your joys and trouble with others. C、A long journey begins with the first step. D、After the bitter comes the sweet. -
