26、 Listen carefully to the footsteps in the family home, and you can probably work out who is walking about. The features most commonly used to identify people are faces, voices and fingerprints. But the way they walk is also a giveaway.
Researchers have used video cameras and computers to analyze people’s gaits(步态), and are now quite good at it. But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be tricky. Cameras are often visible, are difficult to set up, require good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people. A team led by Dr. Ozanyan and Dr. Scully have been looking for a better way to recognize gaits. Their answer: pressure-sensitive mats.
Such mats are nothing new. They have been part of security systems. But Ozanyan and Scully use a complicated version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it. These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker. The researchers turned to an artificial-intelligence system to recognize such patterns, and it seemed to work. In a study in 2018, they tested the system on a database of footsteps of 127 people. They found its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%. And Scully says even without a database of footsteps to work with, the system can determine someone’s sex and, with reasonable accuracy, a subject’s age.
One application of the mat-based gait-recognition system might be in health care, particularly for the elderly. A mat placed in a nursing home or an old person’s own residence could monitor changes in an individual’s gait that indicates certain illnesses. That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over.
Gait analysis might also be used as a security measure in the workplace, monitoring access to restricted areas, such as parts of military bases, server farms or laboratories dealing with dangerous materials. Perhaps the most interesting use of the mats, though, would be in public places, such as airports.
【1】What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?
A.Research equipment. B.Research findings.
C.Research assumption. D.Research background.
【2】According to Paragraph 3, the mat is used to .
A.collect data B.ensure safety
C.determine age D.analyse pressure
【3】The gait-recognition system might be applied to .
A.monitor security work progress B.detect potential health problems
C.keep track of travelling frequency D.warn passengers of possible dangers
【4】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Listen to Your Footsteps B.Applaud Pattern Recognition
C.Love the Way You Walk D.Better the Mats You Step on

28、Beyond the Terracotta Army
ON MY FIRST TRIP to Xi’an in 2002, I came to see what everyone comes here to see: the Terracotta Army. But like many group tours to China, the trip had an itinerary (行程) that was perfunctory — a checklist of must-sees that frequently left me wondering whether there was more to see. With this goal, I flew to China again in November.
The weather was mild when I arrived, ideal for surveying Xi’an from the beautifully restored City Wall. I rented a bike and spent more than an hour covering the nearly flat nine-mile circle, eye-to-eye with rooftops on one side and modern towers on the other.
I spent the late afternoon riding the city’s modern subway to other sites: the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower. A block away, the Drum Tower is a kind of gateway to the Muslim Quarter. This marketplace is lined with restaurants and vendors selling mouthwatering snacks — skewers (串) of lamb cooked over coals, chewy persimmon (柿子) doughnuts, and roujiamo.
The next morning, a local driver picked me up and took me to Hua Shan, about 120 kilometers east of Xi’an. I checked the trail map I had just picked up at a gift shop, looking for the Plank Walk (长空栈道), my hoped-for destination. By the time we reached a cable car station for the ride to the top, the rocky walls surrounding the building were displaying a dusting of snow, Hua Shan’s first of the season.
I learned about the Plank Walk on my previous visit. Tourists climbed along the cliffs, tightly holding onto heavy metal chains that lined the riskier sections.
I didn’t have time on my previous trip. On this visit, the long West Peak cable car route rose into morning clouds, down into a valley and back up, eventually arriving at a station covered in snow and ice. Lacking gloves, the hat or the scarf, I made my way into a frozen wonderland.
I covered a good bit of Hua Shan’s trails this time, ascending three of the five peaks. But when I arrived at the Plank Walk, it was closed for the day. Still, the long day here was rewarding, with smiling faces spotted everywhere of people happy to be exploring China’s magnificent scenery on a more micro level.
And the Plank Walk? It just might be reason enough to return again.
【1】The underlined word “perfunctory” in the first paragraph could probably be replaced by “________”.
A．hurried
B．particular
C．selective
D．unique
【2】We can learn from the article that the tourist attractions the author visited during his second trip to Xi’an included ________.
① the Terracotta Army
② the City Wall
③ the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower
④ the Muslim Quarter
⑤ Hua Shan
A．①②③④⑤
B．②③④⑤
C．①②③⑤
D．①③④⑤
【3】According to the article, why did the author return to Xi’an?
A．To revisit the Terracotta Army.
B．To further explore the city of Xi’an.
C．To cover a famous hiking trail.
D．To have a taste of the local snacks.
【4】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The Plank Walk is open to visitors every day.
B．When the writer visited Xi’an, it happened to be snowing heavily there.
C．If a visitor wants to have snacks, he has only one choice — the Muslim Quarter.
D．You can enjoy historic sites and natural scenery in Xi’an as well as its modernity.
29、Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat (热). However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time—about eight hours after you wake up - your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern (模式). They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates (气候), where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional (传统的), people often suffer less from problem such as heart disease.
Many working people unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap - even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
【1】Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text?
A．They eat too much for lunch.
B．They sleep too little at night.
C．Their body temperature becomes lower.
D．The weather becomes a lot warmer.
【2】If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap?
A．About 12:30 pm.
B．About 1:30 pm.
C．About 2:30 pm.
D．About 3:30 pm.
【3】What would be the best title for the text?
A．Just for a Rest
B．All for a Nap
C．A Special Sleep Pattern.
D．Taking Naps in Warmer Climate.

31、根据所学课文，填出下面片段中所缺单词。
So why has English changed over time? 【1】 all languages change and develop when cultures meet and 【2】 with each other. At first the English spoken in England between AD 450 and 1150 was based more on German than the English we speak at 【3】.
32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My mum and grandma drove me to a 5km race. There was a fierce thunderstorm, and when we got there, I had to wait for it to pass beneath an overhang (屋檐) with the other runners. I started to feel a little nervous, because some of the people there looked really fast. They had proper running shoes and long skinny legs. They were all different ages. I wasn’t wearing running clothes; just a normal T-shirt and shorts.
An hour after the official start time even though it was still raining, the race organisers said we could go. That morning, I was running confidently and feeling strong. The route went through a neighbourhood and there were quite a few people cheering us on, but I didn’t see any faces I knew. It started to pour again, but I love running in the rain: It keeps me cool and I can keep going for longer, even when I get tired, when I run, I don’t wear a watch to see what distance I’m at；I just focus on moving, breathing and how my body feels.
At one point, I came to a split (分叉) in the course. A woman who was directing us blocked off (封锁) the route which I was meant to take and told me to go the other way, so I followed her directions.
I was confused, but just kept running. I knew I must be close to finishing the 5km, but I couldn’t see the finishing line. After a while I saw route directions for a 10km race. I was worried and thought I was lost, but had to keep going. My body started to get tired and my muscles a little sore. I said to myself, “You’re almost there. Just keep breathing.” Eventually I saw the finishing line and spotted my mum. She looked angry. I got past the line and she was yelling, “Why did you do this, Kade? You are in so much trouble.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I learned why my mum was angry later.
