Smart Things on Their Way
Google Clips
Google Clips is designed to be put somewhere in a room to take pictures by

Google says Machine Learning helps the camera choose the best times and
situations for taking pictures and videos. Interested buyers can join a waiting list for

GoPro also uses Machine Learning to power its QuikStories characteristic. This
tool takes existing photos and videos and automatically creates a finished video
piece, complete with music and effects.
Snap Sunglasses
Messaging app Snapchat sells a pair of sunglasses with a built-in camera that
can record short videos with the push of a button. Snap Inc. says the product is
designed to "catch the moment, without taking you out of it."
The glasses can record short video clips that can be shared with Snapchat users.
Snap Inc. has started selling its sunglasses online.
Apple iPhone X
Apple's new iPhone X has a new Face ID system that it says will unlock the
phone just by having the user look at it. This replaces the Touch ID on previous ones
that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone.
Apple says the system works by projecting more than 30,000 dots on the face to
create a kind of map. Apple says its facial recognition is even safe enough to allow
payments through its Apple Pay service.

On May 24th 2021，Monday,two days after Yuan Longping, known as "father
of hybrid rice"，passed away at the age of 91，the farewell ceremony for him was
held in Changsha city,capital of Central China's Hunan province.
People from all walks of life, including many Hong Kong residents and stars,
mourned his passing away. One essential reason why people are mourning Yuan,
both in the Chinese mainland and in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, is
that he helped this nation get rid of the threat of hunger. That's especially a matter of
life and death to Hong Kong because it relies on import for over 95 percent of its
food.
As a commercial city, Hong Kong produces little rice and almost imports all its
rice and majority of vegetables and meat. The Chinese mainland is a main supplier
of Hong Kong.
高二年英语科试卷第 4 页，共 12 页
According to Ta Kung Pao, the mainland opened three freight trains that were
used to carry agricultural products to Hong Kong in the 1960s, which operated until
road transportation dominated the market in 2009.During the years,the trains
transported over 100 million pigs and calves, about 1 billion poultry animals,and
numerous vegetables,fruit and rice to Hong Kong.
As a port city and international financial and trade center, Hong Kong could
exploit every piece of land with potentials for commercial use as well as inhabit the
large numbers of residents. It is the mainland's food supply that makes it possible for
Hong Kong to sustain its prosperity with little agriculture.
The abundant supply of food in the mainland has much to do with Yuan's
hybrid rice. Actually, the Hong Kong people,like their compatriots on the
mainland,have never forgotten his contributions. When Lui Che Woo Prize was
established in 2015，the first session of sustainable development prize was a
warded to Yuan. And his speech delivered after accepting that prize in Hong Kong
Polytechnic University was also a welcome.
Now Yuan has passed away, but his contributions will be remembered forever.
24.The second paragraph mainly tells us __________ .
A. Yuan was mourned only in the Chinese mainland
B. Yuan was honored by the society
C. Yuan made great contributions to his country
D. Yuan provided 95% food for Hong Kong
25.What does the underlined word “sustain" in Paragraph 5 mean？
A. Control. B. Ensure. C. Block. D. Decide.
26.What can we infer from the passage？
A. The agricultural products sent to Hong Kong had little to do with Yuan.
B. In the 1960s the mainland only opened 3 trains to Hong Kong.
C. The Chinese mainland contributed a lot to Hong Kong's development.
D. Yuan's hybrid rice was grown in Hong Kong on a large scale.

27.Where does the passage most probably come from？
A. A science fiction. B. A biography.
C. An agricultural journal. D. A newspaper.

A new study recently found that elephants in central African forests can
encourage the growth of slow-growing trees and increase the ability of the forest to
store carbon. Fabio Berzaghi, who led the study, found that elephants prefer to eat
fast-growing trees in more open spaces. As they feed and walk, they cause damage
to these species, knocking over trees or breaking off branches, which results in an
ecosystem that favors large, slow-growing hardwood trees. “As the elephants thin
the forest, they increase the number of slow-growing trees and the forest is capable
of storing more carbon,” said Stephen Blake, one of the paper's authors.
Scientists collected field measurements in the Congo Basin and used a
computer model to predict how elephants would affect forest structure, and carbon
storage potential in the long term. The data confirmed that when elephants are
present, the forest contains larger trees and higher abundances of species with high
wood density. On the contrary, should forest elephants go extinct, leaving those
slow-growing trees struggling to compete with fast-growing species, it would result
in a 7 percent loss of above-ground biomas（s 生物总量）. As a result, central African
forests could lose up to three billion tons of carbon, potentially accelerating climate
change.
The sad reality is that humans are doing their best to rid the planet of elephants.
“This study comes at a time when forest elephants are threatened as never before,”
said Iain Douglas Hamilton, founder of Save the Elephants. “It is shocking that just
as we are beginning to understand how elephants might have a key role in Africa in
storing carbon, they are under real threat of extinction.” One limitation of the study,
Mr. Berzaghi said, is that we do not know how much carbon has already been lost
because of the elephants' decline. But it does seem certain, he added, that putting a
stop to illegal hunting and restoring forest elephant populations would bring climate
benefits.

28. What can we infer about slow-growing trees in Paragraph 2
A. They are elephants' favorite food. B. They are easily hurt by elephants.
C. They can help forests store carbon. D. They may reduce elephant populations.
29. What would happen without elephants living in central African forests
A. Climate change would possibly be sped up.
B. The forest structure would remain unchanged.
C. The forests would lose more fast-growing trees.
D. Larger trees would defeat fast-growing species.
30. What did Mr. Berzaghi suggest people do
A. Lead a low-carbon life. B. Evaluate the carbon loss.
C. Stop destroying forests. D. Protect forest elephants.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Humans and Nature Live in Harmony
B. Elephants Disappear in Parts of Africa
C. Climate Change Affects Forest Structure
D. Elephants Defend Against Climate Change

Sonny 64 （think）for a while. “That's a lie,” he said. “He won it because he

It was Saturday afternoon. Martin and his sister Pam were looking at the
beautiful old buildings of Cambridge for the day. Pam had a camera with her. She
likes taking photos.
“Let’s have a last photo of you,” said Pam. “It’s the last one. I want to finish
the film in my camera.
“ Oh, all right,” said Martin. He stood in front of the flowers.
“Look at me,” said Pam and took a photo. A man with a big backpack and a
tent on his back walked between Pam and Martin.
“Oh no,” said Pam. “Now I’ve got a picture of that man, not of you, Martin.”
The man looked at Pam. He was angry. He went across the road without a word.
“That man isn’t very nice, is he ” said Martin.
“No,” said Pam. The man with the backpack on his back went into the bus
station. He had got sunglasses and a blue hat.
“Come on,” said Martin. “Let’s find our bus.”
They went into the bus station. “Look,” said Martin. “There’s that man again.
He’s getting into that bus. He’s going to Aberdeen. That’s in Scotland.”
“Good,” said Pam. “Far from here and far from me!”
Three days later, Pam had got her photos from the shop. “Look at these photos
of us in Cambridge,” she said to Martin. “They are all very good but this last one.
Look, it’s that man with the backpack.”
“Wait a minute,” said Martin. “I know that face. It’s in the newspaper. Have
you got it ”
“Today’s newspaper ” said Pam. “Yes, it’s here. Why ”
“Yes, here he is. Look at this picture,” said Martin.
Pam looked at the photo in the newspaper. “Who’s that ” she asked.
“It says in the paper that his name is Alan Rook,” said Martin. “And he works

Dear David,
Knowing that you are interested in the celebrations of our National Day in
our school, I am writing about it for you.
The celebrations were held on October 6 in our school. They started at
9:00 am, lasting 4 hours. Besides, we gathered at our school hall to see the
flag-raising ceremony in TV and sing our national anthem, which could arouse
our patriotic enthusiasm. Additionally, a video was shown to demonstrate our
nation’s development since its foundation in 1949. Our school also provided
various activities where many students put on some performances. Some
students played some "red songs" to praise the great Communist Party of China
and our happy life. Finally, our headmaster addressed a speech to end the
activities.
What a thrilling experience! And we all had a good time. Could you share
your school activities
All the best!
Yours,
LiHua
