Hello, I am Kevin. Today I want to share my experience at home alone. Four years ago, when I was a boy of 11, I got into the biggest trouble as a kid. It was Saturday morning. Both my parents were out, leaving me and my 10 month-old sister home alone.
Since my sister was still asleep in her room, I had no one to play with myself. So I decided to do some drawing. Soon I gave up. Then I turned on the TV and there was nothing on it, so I felt bored and touched the candles on the shelf. I had an idea! What would happen if I set fire to some kitchen paper
Well, of course it went on fire, and it was getting bigger and bigger, but I couldn’t blow it out. I was very frightened. I threw it on the floor, and then I got my dad’s shoes and stamped it out(扑灭).
But there was a huge hole left on the floor. When my mum came home later she smelt the smoke immediately. Luckily, she dropped the shopping bag over the hole. I thought this meant she would never see it. However, after running round the house to check for a fire, she of course picked up the bag and saw the hole.
At last, I was grounded(关禁闭) for hours. Even worse though, the hole was still there. Now it still reminds(想) me of what I did. And my parents realise that they shouldn’t leave us home alone when they go out.

A new way of travelling will appear in the next few years—flying taxis. Many of us grow up watching sci-fi movies with taxis flying in the air. Science stories are now becoming science facts.
The Japanese airline ANA has teamed up with a U.S. business called Joby Aviation. The two plan to start using flying taxis at the 2025 World Expo in Osaka. They are now working together on making the flying taxis. They need to work out what traffic rules the taxis will need to follow, and what kind of training flying taxi drivers will need. The five-seat, all-electric taxi will be able to take off and land directly. It can fly up to 241 kilometers and can reach 321 kilometers per hour.
Joby Aviation’s CEO said that the taxis would be good for the environment because they will help decrease (减少) people’s carbon footprint (碳足迹). Now it takes over one hour by car to get from Osaka Station to Kansai International Airport. But in the future, it will only take 14 minutes in a flying taxi.
“Japan badly needs flying taxis with most people living in urban areas, and Tokyo is one of the most crowded cities in the world,” Joby Aviation’s CEO said. The chairman of ANA said, “Being able to provide customers with the chance to travel quickly and safely is very wonderful.”

Kids are on their phones more than ever. A study of 19 European countries found 80% of children aged 9 to 16 go online daily, or almost daily. And the average length of time children and young people spend on their devices has been increasing in recent years. The trends have become more noticeable because of lockdowns: 79% of UK parents reported their children’s screen time was up post-pandemic.
Parents of children to teenagers around the world told the Guardian about their children’s relationship with screens. While many were pleased with their children’s smartphone use, most said they were unhappy with the time they spent online and the effect they believed it was having on their moods and health.
Steve, a parent of two teenage boys, 13 and 15, in the Netherlands, is among them. While he was worried about his sons’ phone using time, the 54-year-old wondered how to solve it. “One can’t refuse the kids to have a smartphone, not only because technology has become a basic part of modern life, but because it’s become part of how they communicate with their peers,” said Steve.
Parents told us about a number of tools they relied on. While some parents adopt a laissez-faire (放任) attitude, and others the “prevention is the best medicine” method, most found themselves somewhere in the middle, setting rules like “no screens at night”. While some chose to take away devices, others tried more peaceful methods.
21．How does the writer introduce the topic
A．By telling stories. B．By answering questions.
C．By showing research results. D．By presenting people’s opinions.
22．What does the underlined “it” refer to

23．What is Steve’s opinion on children’s phone using
A．Parents should strictly help children manage phone using time.
B．Children should rely on their phones all the time in modern time.
C．Ways to control children’s screen time should be considered carefully.
D．Using smartphones too much has bad effects on peer’s communication.
24．Which of the following is a “peaceful method”
A．Locking children’s smartphones. B．Encouraging other interests.
C．Forbidding screen time. D．Switching off Wi-Fi at night.
25．Which of the following is the main idea of this news report
A．The reasons why kids spend more time on their phones.
B．The negative effects of overusing phones among children.
C．Family conflicts arise because of technology development.
D．Parents’ different attitudes towards children’s phone using.

The world according to cats is very different from the one we travel through. To walk in a cat’s paws, we first need to understand how a cat experiences the world. Although cats use the same senses as humans—sight, sound, smell and touch—they use them quite differently.
Sight
It seems that cats can move in the darkness easily. However, many cats are more likely to be active and hunt at dawn and dusk. Cats see the world less colourful than humans which also influences their eyesight. What cats can see from 20 feet away, we can see at 100 feet.
Sound
A cat’s triangle-shaped ears act like small satellite dishes. Their ears can turn forward, backward, and sideways which allows them to locate sound in just six-hundredths of a second from up to three feet away and even identify slight differences in sounds. Their hearing is far more capable than humans and even dogs.
Smell
Smell, unlike the other four senses, is fully developed in a newborn kitten. Experts believe that a cat’s sense of smell is about 14 times better than ours. Cats have up to 200 million special cells that detect smells, compared with our only five million.
Touch
Cats really depend on whiskers (胡须). They are longer and thicker than normal cat hair, which are as useful as human fingertips. Whiskers detect air movements that can show the presence of menaces and prevent them from getting hurt.
26．What should we do first to understand cats
A．To live with cats. B．To know how cats sense the world.
C．To behave like cats. D．To have the same experiences as cats.
27．What do we learn about cats’ sight
A．Cats love to play with people all day. B．Cats may prefer to live in the darkness.
C．Cats have weaker eyesight than humans. D．Cats’ world is more colourful than humans’.
28．Why do cats have excellent hearing
A．They practice their ears a lot. B．Their ears have special shapes.
C．They know to work with humans. D．Their ears can face to different sides.
29．What is special about cats’ smell ability compared with other senses
A．It is the most useful sense. B．It is gained when cats are born.
C．It develops in their middle age. D．It is stronger in cats’ childhood.
30．What does the underlined word “menaces” probably mean
A．Rats. B．Sounds. C．Risks. D．Problems.
【答案】26．B 27．C 28．D 29．B 30．C
【导语】本文介绍了猫使用感官的方式与人类不同，并具体介绍了猫是如何使用它们的视觉、听觉、嗅觉和触觉的。
26．推理判断题。根据“The world according to cats is very different from the one we travel through. ... Although cats use the same senses as humans—sight, sound, smell and touch—they use them quite differently.”可知，猫眼中的世界和我们眼中的是不同的，它们使用感官的方式也不同，由此推知我们要了解猫，得知道它们是如何感知这个世界的。故选B。
27．细节理解题。根据“Cats see the world less colourful than humans which also influences their eyesight. What cats can see from 20 feet away, we can see at 100 feet.”可知，猫的视力比人差。故选C。
28．细节理解题。根据“Their ears can turn forward, backward, and sideways which allows them to locate sound in just six-hundredths of a second from up to three feet away and even identify slight differences in sounds.”可知，猫的听觉好，是因为它们的耳朵可以朝向不同的方向。故选D。
29．细节理解题。根据“Smell, unlike the other four senses, is fully developed in a newborn kitten.”可知，新生幼猫的嗅觉已经完全发育成熟，这与其他四种感官不同。故选B。
30．词句猜测题。根据“prevent them from getting hurt”可知，胡须可以保护它们免受伤害，说明胡须能探测到空气的流动，从而感知到威胁的存在；“menaces”表示“威胁”，与Risks同义。故选C。

You also help reduce the amount of rubbish because you don’t need to use bags for packing your food. You can just pick it out of the ground or off a plant and put it into a basket!

Imagine taking a photo of an apple on the moon with your smartphone. It seems impossible, right But that’s what it was like for scientists to take a photo of a black hole in space. In face of so many challenges, scientists have finally got the first photo of a black hole（洞）.
Black holes are one of the most mysterious things in the universe. Physicist Albert Einstein first explained black holes in 1915 with his general theory of relativity（广义相对论）.
According to Einstein’s theory, a black hole comes from a dying star. The star falls into a small point with a lot of strong gravity. The strong gravity of the black hole allows it to pull other things in and “eat” them. Not even light can escape a black hole.
The photo proves Einstein was right. It makes the general theory of relativity—one of the most important theories about the universe—more believable.
Although they are mysterious, it is likely that black holes are actually quite common. Scientists believe that every large galaxy has a big black hole at its center—the one in our galaxy（星系）is called Sagittarius A．
Scientists are continuing to study the black hole in the photo. “One of the things I’m most interested in is seeing how these images might change over time,” said Gregory Sivakoff, one of the scientists who helped to capture the photo. According to him, studying the black hole might help us solve bigger puzzles about the universe.

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “space meat” It sounds quite weird. But in fact it could be the future of the human diet.
A Russian astronaut recently “grew” meat aboard the International Space Station. Yes, you read that right—he grew it using cells (细胞) provided by an Israeli company called Aleph Farms. But in fact, he was not the first person to create lab-grown (实验室培育的) meat. Dutch scientist Mark Post grew the first lab meat in 2013.
But why bother growing meat in a lab when we can get the real thing from cows For one thing, lab-grown meat is healthier. “We gain greater control over what the meat consist of such as its fat content (脂肪含量).” Mark Post said in an interview. Lab-grown meat is also free of the chemicals that are used on farms, such as pesticides (农药) and growth hormones (激素).
Are there other ways to replace regular meat McDonald is trying to do so with the P.L.T., which stands for plant, lettuce (生菜) and tomato. The first P.L.T burgers are already being sold in Canada according to the fast food company.
The “meat” in the P.L.T. is made out of Beyond Meata plant-based meat substitute (替代品) created by a company from Los Angels, US. The company uses pea, rice and bean proteins (蛋白质) to produce patties (肉饼) that look and taste like real meat.
Experts doubt whether these products are healthier than real meat. But plant-based meat has already proven to be a success with several fast food companies already offering such products on their menus, according to Fox Business.

An ancient philosopher’s wisdom can be compared in value to gold. Now The Art of War by the great thinker Sun Tzu has actually been printed on pure gold. There are 5, 000 of these books across China, costing 19, 600 yuan each.
Known as the world’s oldest book on military strategy, it was originally written on bamboo strips. Sun Tzu lived in the late Spring and Autumn Period. There is little information about Sun Tzu’s real life.
According to one story, the king asked Sun Tzu to demonstrate his way of training the army. A group of the king’s concubines （妃子）played as the soldiers and two of the king’s favorites acted as commanders （指挥官）. Sun Tzu gave them orders, but they thought it was just a game and couldn’t stop laughing. Sun Tzu said, “If the order is not clear, it’s my fault. But if the order is clear, and soldiers don’t obey, it’s the commanders’ fault.” He then killed the two commanders, despite the king’s protest. When Sun Tzu gave new orders, the concubines performed perfectly.
Sun Tzu’s book became popular with leaders in Asia and later in the West. In 1782 a Frenchman named Amiot took the book to Europe. It is said that Napoleon used its principles while conquering Europe.
Today The Art of War is used in business, sport, and even relationships. Sun Tzu is possibly the most quoted Chinese in the world. One saying is, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.”
