But if you don’t accept the apology, the situation will become worse.

Summer is finally here for most of us. Sadly, summer is not so pleasant to people in a bit less lucky place where air conditioning is not easy to get for most of them.
But as a saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way, especially for those who like doing it yourself (DIY). A young man from Bangladesh designed an air conditioning system called the Eco Cooler, one that does not require power, and is made of the world’s most common waste—plastic bottles.
The Eco Cooler is super simple to build—no special engineering skills are required. First, to fix it, a window should be taken away and replaced by it. Second, a board should be cut into the size of a window. Some bottle- neck sized holes should then be cut onto the board. Then, the funnel shaped bottlenecks, cut from the plastic bottles, should be put into the holes. The next step is to fix the design onto the window frame with the wider side facing outwards. And this is it.
The Eco Cooler then works by catching the winds and sending them inside the building. It can reduce the temperature of a room by as much as 5℃—a big difference when looking at comfortable 25℃ compared to uncomfortable 30℃.
The idea of the inventor, Ashis Paul, was to show his great product to as many people as possible. For this purpose, he received help from some groups of volunteers. Together, they offered to help local people build and fix the units, as well as teach them how to make them themselves.
Yes, the Eco Cooler is not a super high -tech air conditioning system, but it is one that can make a big difference.
10．To build the Eco Cooler is not ________．
A．easy B．difficult C．cheap D．expensive

13．What’s the best title of this text
A．DIY air conditioning made from plastic bottles
B．Why do we need an Eco Cooler in summer
C．A strong- willed inventor and his DIY dream
D．Eco Cooler—a super high- tech air conditioner

（2025·上海青浦·一模）Do you agree with gene (基因) editing
Andy: Every year, many babies are born with genetic (遗传的) problems. If we can get rid of these problems by editing their genes, we can save many lives. Meanwhile, editing genes allows parents to choose their babies’ appearance and even intelligence. This can give their children a better future. However, to stop some people from using this technology in bad ways, it’s necessary to have laws that tell us how we are allowed to edit genes.
Diana: Parents make the decision to edit a baby’s genes without their children’s agreement. This goes against the rights of these unborn children. More importantly, this technology may destroy humans’ genetic diversity (多样性) . In my opinion, you are unique and no one can replace you. However, this could change if parents can edit their babies’ genes. Everyone might look the same someday.
Cici: This new technology can help fix babies’ problems that they are born with, like heart diseases. Many children suffer from these things. ________ But with this technology, all babies can be born healthy and their parents won’t have to worry about them.
Kate: This technology could be risky. It could result in some problems for babies if it is not used properly. Their parents may regret this. What’s worse, if only rich people can afford it, gene editing could be seen as unfair to poor families.

（2024·上海奉贤·一模）Sleep is important to teenagers because it plays an important role in their physical and mental development. So how many hours of sleep does a teenager need
Age group Age range Recommended (建议的) hours of sleep every 24 hours
School-age 6—12 years 9—12 hours
Teen 13—18 years 8—10 hours
Adult 18 years and older 7 hours or more
A recent report shows that many teenagers in America are not getting the recommended amount of sleep. Here are the results.
Why is it hard for teens to get good sleep There is no single reason. Instead, several factors contribute (是……的原因之一) to this problem. One of them is late bedtime and early school start times. Now, more and more teenagers are developing a habit of being “a night owl”, staying up later at night and sleeping longer into the morning. If allowed to sleep as they wish, many teens would get eight hours or more a night, but most school start times require them to wake up much earlier in the morning.
The use of electronic devices like the smartphone and computer is another factor. Research has found that 89% or more of teens keep at least one device in their bedroom at night. Screen time late into the evening can cause sleep problems. Using these devices can keep teens excited and unable to fall asleep. Sudden phone messages can disrupt (扰乱) sleep. And being in the light from smartphones also makes people feel less sleepy.
So teens should improve their sleep environment and habits to get better sleep. Here are some tips.
◆ Get eight hours of sleep a night on weekdays and weekends.
◆ Put away electronic devices at least a half-hour before bed. Keep them on silent during the night.
◆ Keep your bedroom cool, dark and quiet.

（24-25九年级上·上海·阶段练习）Last week, I went to a restaurant for dinner. I recognized the face of the boy sitting at the table next to me. I was sure I had seen him before, but couldn’t remember his name. Have you ever had an experience like that
Humans have a great ability to recognize faces. From movie stars to our relatives, friends and classmates, we can actually remember the faces of a large number of people. The question is: How many faces a person can remember at most
Humans are much better at recognizing faces than at remembering names. Early humans didn’t have spoken language. They largely depended on their visual (视觉的) abilities to tell their family members from strangers. As a result, our vision has developed to be one of our strongest senses. When we talk to others, we often keep eye contact with them and look at their faces from time to time. Our brain takes in and stores their looks, such as the color of their eyes and the shape of their mouth.
In a study, a group of people were tested on their facial memory abilities. They were asked to recall (回想) the faces of all the people they knew about. Then, they were asked to identify their pictures. It turned out that normal people were able to remember between 1,000 and 10,000 faces. The average was about 5,000.
Meanwhile, some people have much stronger facial memories than others. They are called super recognizers. Remembering about 10,000 faces is the upper limit for a normal person, but these people may be able to recall many thousands more different faces. Most people can only recognize about twenty percent of the faces they have seen. Super recognizers, however, can remember up to 80 percent of them!
44．What did the writer do last week
A．He went to the cinema. B．He visited a museum.
C．He had dinner in a restaurant. D．He cooked dinner in a restaurant.
45．The underlined word “that” in Paragraph One refers to a certain experience. If you had the same experience, it meant ________.
A．you failed to recognize an old friend
B．you were unable to call someone
C．you recognized someone’s face but forgot his name
D．couldn’t remember where you had met someone before
46．Early humans heavily depend on their visual abilities because they ________.
A．only believed their eyes B．didn’t know how to speak
C．their other senses were not good D．were very clever
47．According to the study mentioned, how many faces can a normal person remember at most
A．500. B．1,000. C．5,000. D．10,000.
48．How are super recognizers different from normal people
A．They have excellent eyesight.
B．They pay very close attention to people’s looks.
C．They can recognize faces they’ve seen a lot faster.
D．They can recall many thousands more different faces.

（2024·上海·模拟预测）Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案)
What subject do you worry about the most at school Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.
“For people who are anxious about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper from San Francisco State University the Daily Mail. That’s right-sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.
Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math quiz while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.
Slumping over is a defensive posture. It can trigger (激发) negative (消极的) memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking, Peper said.
Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.
Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Athletes, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus better.
56．According to the passage, how do some students feel when facing a math exam

（2024·上海静安·二模）Science and technology will continue to develop. Nature and Business in 2023 have made their predictions. Let’s have a look.
Human-like friendsRobots will be more like humans both in their looks and abilities. These robots will serve as greeters, waiters and companions of the elderly. Elon Musk’s company is working hard on making human-like robots that will work in our home. More AI systems will play roles-in areas like health care and scientific research.
Protecting the earthOne of the most difficult challenges the world faces today is reducing carbon emissions. This year we can expect more progress in green hydrogen, a new clean energy with near-zero greenhouse gas emissions. Scientists will also have a safer way to deal with nuclear waste. The used nuclear fuel will be buried 400 meters underground.
Space and beyondThe images from the world’s largest and most powerful space telescope—the James Webb Space Telescope—have amazed the world. And the Euclid Space Telescope will be launched. It will take photos to create a 3D map of the universe. China will continue to build the Xinjiang Qitai Radio Telescope. It will be able to watch 75% of the stars in the sky at any given time.
Staying connectedPeople will communicate more smoothly. In China, the Beidou Navigation Satellite System can now be directly connected to mobile phones. We can find where the phones are even when there’s no signal. A US company is also working on a direct connection between phones and satellites. The impact of 5G will continue to grow.

（2024·上海嘉定·二模）Oceans cover two-thirds of our Earth. There are five main oceans which all flow into each other: the Arctic Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and the Southern Ocean.
What are the Layers of the Ocean
Oceans are made of five layers or depths. Each layer has different characteristics (特点), such as the temperature and the amount of light. They have unique creatures (独特的生物) living within them.
The Sunlight Zone-up to 200m below the surface of the ocean
There is plenty of sunlight and heat in this zone although both decrease (减少) as you go deeper. There are many different living things within this layer, including seaweed, dolphins, fish, and coral reefs. Humans enjoy this warm layer for activities such as swimming and fishing.
The Twilight Zone-up to 1,000m below the surface of the ocean
Only weak sunlight reaches this deeper layer. No plants grow within this layer. It is home to sea animals which often have large eyes, including the sea cucumber, the wolf eel, the swordfish and the octopus. Humans can dive to this layer wearing protective suits.
The Midnight Zone-up to 4,000m below the surface of the ocean
The Midnight Zone is pitch-black because sunlight cannot reach this layer. Some light can be seen from creatures that make their own light, such as anglerfish, jelly fish and viperfish.
Abyss-up to 6,000m below the surface of the ocean
The sunlight cannot reach this layer at all, so it is pitch-black and near freezing. Very few creatures live here, but those that do are mainly transparent (透明的), blind invertebrates (无脊椎动物), such as lanternfish, squid and amphipod.
The Trenches-up to 11,000m below the surface of the ocean
The Trenches are narrow, underwater valleys of the ocean floor which have high pressure and near-freezing temperature. There is no natural light in this zone, but different creatures can be found, such as sea stars.
