22、 If cars could drive themselves, what would the world be like? Imagine(设想)seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them are worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless(无人驾驶的)cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them. These cars are now still in the testing stages(阶段).But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.
The cars already have many features(特点)allowing them to take over from drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park(停车)themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.
Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals(无线信号), cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent(阻止)these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies(技术)can also be mistakes.
【1】The main purpose of the first paragraph is to __________.
A.tell readers what self-driven cars look like B.tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic
C.get readers to pay attention to road safety D.make readers wonder about self-driven cars
【2】What does the underlined word "take over from" in Paragraph3 mean? __________.
A.direct the way for B.take the place of
C.work better than D.make use of
【3】Cars already have the following features EXCEPT __________.
A.parking itself B.controlling itself in dangerous situations
C.slowing itself down near an object D.avoiding car accidents 100%
【4】What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?
a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPS
A.a, b, c B.a, b, d C.b, c, d D.a, c, d
【5】What is the passage mainly about? __________.
A.Advantages of self-driven cars B.Different opinions on self-driven cars
C.Possibilities of self-driven cars D.Google's new technology-self-driven cars
23、When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward(奖励)? It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.
One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also says, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”
Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding them also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that they need to work to make money. Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.
So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.
【1】Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion?
A.Don’t ask kids to do housework.
B.Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores.
C.Don’t allow kids to play computer games.
D.Don’t let children play a part in doing chores.
【2】What do people want to teach kids by giving kids rewards for doing chores?
A.People need to work to make money.
B.Doing chores is a good way to make money.
C.They can only be allowed to watch TV by doing chores.
D.They must share housework because they live in the same house.
【3】Which idea may the writer agree with?
A.Parents should give rewards to let their kids do chores.
B.Kids should offer to help with chores at home.
C.Apps are better choices for parents than money.
D.We don’t know what’s the best way to get kids helping.
24、On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents, we visited the Wildlife Park.
The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals and birds. Some are native (当地的) to Australia and can only be found there. There are over 600 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas and crocodiles (鳄鱼). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo where most of the animals are in cages (笼子).
We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We were allowed to touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly (令人想拥抱的). Although we were not allowed to carry them, I got to take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir (纪念品) of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are really big and scary (吓人的) with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.
There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species (种类) they had. I saw an old parrot which could “talk”. It made a great impression on me.
I enjoyed the trip very much. There was so much to see.
