21、A wearable interactive display made of a flexible, breathable electronic fabric can display simple maps and text messages, potentially for use in future smart clothing, a research group reports in their latest paper.
Previous research has developed flexible thin-film displays that are rollable, foldable and stretchable. However, such electronics have not yet been successfully integrated into clothing. This is because it has proven challenging to design fabric displays that are both durable over time and easy to assemble over a large area.
Now, Chinese scientists have woven bands of a new fabric display roughly 20 feet long by 10 inches wide. To make the new fabric, polymer scientists Peining Chen and Huisheng Peng at Fudan University in Shanghai and their colleagues weave electrically transparent fibers into a flexible, breathable fabric. The fabric is about as bright as the average flat-screen TV. The researchers noted their prototype (雏形) was also significantly more durable than conventional flexible thin-film displays, making it more suitable for practical use. One likely application for this is wearable displays. The researchers integrated a touch-sensitive 16-button fabric keyboard, solar-energy-harvesting threads and battery fibers into their fabric to add interactivity and a power supply. They added electronics to wirelessly link it to a smartphone via a Bluetooth connection so users could send and receive messages on their sleeves, as well as see their real-time locations on a map.
In the future, smart clothing might help display messages from people with voice, speech and language problems. And it might even work in concert with devices that can decode (译解) complex brain waves to figure out what these people would like to say but cannot. However, “putting displays with 36 volts (伏特) directly on the body may potentially be a concern,” cautioned Bao, chemical engineer at Stanford University in California.
【1】What does the underlined word “assemble” mean in the second paragraph?
A．Fit together.
B．Take in.
C．Build up.
D．Put out.
【2】What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．The making of a fabric display and its potential use.
B．The novel application of Bluetooth to wearable displays.
C．The introduction of a unique fabric and its future.
D．The contrast between conventional displays and wearable ones.
【3】What can we infer about smart clothing from the last paragraph?
A．Such clothing poses no danger to wearers.
B．Such clothing can get wearers’ ideas across.
C．It can receive and send complex brain waves.
D．It enables people with voice problems to speak.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A．Say No to Conventional Flexible Thin-film Displays
B．Wearable Electronic Displays Is to Appear on Clothing
C．Say Yes to Wearable Electronic Displays on Clothing
D．Wearable Electronic Displays May Get Your Ideas across
22、I was doing some Christmas shopping in a toy store and decided to look at Barbie dolls for my nieces. A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well. As she was looking，a little boy came to the Pokemon toys. He was dressed neatly，but his clothes were obviously old. He was with his father as well，and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys. Each time he picked one up and looked at his father，his father shook his head and said，“No.”
The little girl had chosen her Barbie. However，she stopped and was watching them. Rather dejectedly，the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else. The little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf，and ran over to the Pokemon toys. She excitedly picked up one and raced towards the checkout. I picked up my purchases and got in line behind them. Then，much to the little girl's delight，the little boy and his father got in line behind me. After the toy was paid for and bagged，the little girl handed it back to the cashier (收银员) and whispered something in her ear. The cashier smiled and put the package under the counter.
I paid for my purchases and was rearranging things when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier checked his purchases and said，“Congratulations，you are my hundredth customer today，and you win a prize！” With that，she handed the little boy the Pokemon toys，and he could only stare in surprise. It was exactly what he had wanted!
The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway during all of this. Then they walked out. As I walked back to my car，I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that. I'll never forget what she said to him. “Daddy，didn't Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy？” He said，“Of course they did，honey.” To which the little girl replied，“Well，I just did！”
I feel very shocked to have witnessed the true spirit of Christmas in that toy store，in the form of a little girl who understands more about the meaning of this festival than most adults I know.
【1】The underlined word “dejectedly” in the second paragraph probably means __________.
A．disappointedly

B．Fortunately，he was the hundredth customer and won the Poknemon toys.
C．The little girl bought the Poknemon toys for him.
D．The cashier felt sympathy for the little boy and gave him the Poknemon toys.
【3】What did the little girl mean when saying “Daddy，didn't Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy？”
A．Her Grandparents wanted her to be happy.
B．The Poknemon toys made her happy.
C．Making the little boy happy made her happy.
D．Her Grandparents hoped that she could help others.
【4】Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

B．The little boy had not enough money to buy the Poknemon toys.
C．The author was deeply moved by the behavior of the little girl.
D．Although the little girl liked the Poknemon toys very much，she gave them to the boy.
23、 Are you a moviegoer? If, like me, you’re a fan of film, then there’s no better place to watch something than on the big screen at the cinema. You enter the dark theatre and take your seat, ready to be entertained. But while you are absorbed in some movie magic, many others are now getting their film fixed at home.
Over the last few years, cinemas have seen a comeback. Customers have been attracted by comfortable seats, and lots of choice of things to watch. Multiplexes in particular can screen up to twenty films at the same time, suiting all different tastes. In addition, 3D and even 4D movies can give the audience an extra immersive experience. So what’s not to like about a trip to the cinema?
The coronavirus pandemic has put the future of cinema under the spotlight. Some have had to close because of reduced ticket sales. In the UK, it’s brought about a surgein TV watching and online streaming. It’s reported that half of UK adults will keep and continue using their new streaming subscriptions.
This isn’t great news for cinemas. They rely on the release of a big blockbuster to bring the crowds back, but the launch of new films, such as James Bond: No Time To Die, are being delayed. Disney has released its $200m blockbuster, Mulan, online instead of in movie theatres. John Fithian, from the National Association of Theatre Owners, told Variety magazine: This idea of waiting out the pandemic to make your movies more profitable doesn’t make sense to me. There won’t be as much of an industry left to play your movies in if you do that.”
【1】What’s mainly talked about in paragraph 2?
A．Why people don’t like to go to cinema.
B．What has helped cinemas make a comeback.
C．How cinemas have developed in the last few years.
D．Whether cinemas can remain popular in the future.
【2】What does the author say about watching films at home?
A．It can hardly suit all different tastes.
B．It’s time-consuming due to various distractions.
C．It offers audience a variety of films free of charge.
D．It’s not as enjoyable an experience as going to cinemas.
【3】What does the underlined word “surge” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．Potential influence.
B．Short-term benefit.
C．Sudden increase.
D．Fierce competition.
【4】Which view would John Fithian agree with?
A．The release of blockbusters cannot bring the crowds back.
B．Releasing films online is an alternative during the pandemic.
C．The pandemic hasn’t had a great impact on the film industry.
D．Delaying the release of blockbusters can bring in more profits.

I’ve found that most people don’t think of teaching as being quite as________as writing for newspapers. Tell people you are a journalist, and at least some will________it interesting. _______ you tell someone you are a teacher, you can see memories of their school days _______ back, and fear flash in their eyes. So teaching isn’t for the faint-hearted(胆怯的). It can be ________work—but is there anything worthwhile in life that isn’t? Some classes can be _______ at times.
