We are going to talk about transport. Any ideas, Rob Rob: Well, one big trend is automation (自动化).Neil: Yeah, we might all be riding in driverless cars in the future.Rob: It’s happening. A company in France even plans to test self-driving freight trains this year. Their test train can travel for about 100 kilometers with no drivers!Neil: Of course. Some trains already use computers, but there’s even an exciting idea: a kind of driverless machine could move you around at 1,123 kilometers per hour!Rob: Really That sounds like something from a sci-fi movie!Neil: Actually, it’s called Hyperloop One!Rob: Tell me more!Neil: When you sit in a pod (胶囊仓), then you’re pushed through a metal tube (金属管) at high speed, taking you to faraway places in minutes, not hours. People are already testing it in Nevada, USA.Rob: That sounds amazing! But do you think it will actually become real Neil: Well, some experts point out it’s a big challenge. But I’m sure we can work it out. Trying new things is how we move forward!Rob: Exactly! Every big invention, from cars to planes, seemed impossible at first. If people never tried, we would still be riding horses. That’s a great way to think about it, Neil.Neil: Thanks for your sharing about future transport. That’s all for today’s 6 Minute English!32.How far can the test train in France travel without drivers A.For about 6 km. B.For about 30 km. C.For about 100 km.

D.The popularity of transport.Each of us has dreams and goals for our future. Our dream and goal make us study hard and make progress each day.But why do you still end up with nothing even if you have dreams and goals What are the differences between successful (成功的) people and the dreamers It’s their persistent (锲而不舍的) action. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try, keep trying and never give up. If you have a hard lesson today, try your best to learn it well and then you’ll be ready for a harder one tomorrow.This is the famous formula (公式) for success: Dream→Believe→Achieve.Most people have their dreams, and they believe they can realize their dreams. But they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired of waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is.If you want to achieve your dreams and goals, you have to add one thing to your success formula: Dream→Believe→Act→Achieve.For me, action is the most important thing for success, and that’s to take persistent action. If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything meaningful. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders (奇迹). There will be obstacles in our life. We must try to solve them. Success doesn’t fall down from the sky. Most successful people achieved their dreams because of their persistent action.Please remember: Persistent action can help you achieve your dreams and goals.36.What does the writer ask us to do when we find our lessons very hard A.Ask people for some help. B.Prepare for a harder one.C.Try and keep trying. D.Try to create wonders.37.What does the writer add to the success formula to form the second one A.Act. B.Achieve. C.Connect. D.Create.38.What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean A.Pleasant things. B.Difficult things.C.Useful things. D.Interesting things.39.Which can be the best title for the text A.Believe You Can Do It B.Have an Important DreamC.Take Action for Your Dream D.Never Give up Your GoalsWhen Shane Keasey started middle school, she already had a cool dream: to become an archaeologist! Shane said, “ 40 It’s very interesting to see the things people created a long time ago.”Luckily, Shane had a chance to explore her dream at school. 41 She thought the activity was perfect for her, so she took part in it.During this activity, Shane learned some important things about archaeologists. 42 Second, they need skills like protecting old objects and using maps.

Now, she can’t wait to learn archaeology and work hard to achieve her dream.A.First, they must get a good education and training.B.Digging up ancient objects only takes a few hours of easy work.C.That’s like the best adventure!D.Archaeologists don’t need any special skills to do their jobs.E.This year, her class had an activity about different jobs.F.Shane was glad that she took part in the activity.G.I became interested in the past when I was young.四、完形填空。(本题共10小题,每小题1.5分,共15分)Bamboo is one of the most 45 plants in the world.

In this way, you and the tree are 61 (connect).But it’s not just about hugging—looking at trees can bring people joy and 62 sense of spiritual (精神的) strength. When you focus on the texture of their bark and the shape of their leaves, all your worries seem 63 (disappear) little by little.“It helps with stress. When you hug a tree, you slow down and breathe deeply, smelling the 64 (sweet) of its leaves or flowers. This calms your mind and body. Trees also make oxygen and clean the air. Staying near them makes you feel 65 (energy).” Han Mingzhe, a 30-year-old nature teacher said.“ 66 looking at trees is a simple activity, there are still quite a few things you can do.” said Han. Check a tree’s “skin”, texture and color, and look for small pores on the trunk. If you do, you 67 (know) what kind of tree it is quickly.You can also follow a tree’s life journey, from a seed (种子) 68 a full-grown tree. “You can feel the time by touching the tree trunk with your eyes closed, or feel the energy flowing inside of it by pressing your ear against the trunk,” said Han.69 amazing! Next time, you can try hugging a tree and let its quiet strength calm your mind.七、任务型阅读。(本题共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)请阅读下面语篇,根据其内容回答问题,并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。Parents are the closest people to you in the world.

He talks to me but doesn’t listen to me,” said Zhang, a junior 3 student in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.Do you and your parents also have problems Well, why don’t you all take a walk or have a talk It’s the International Day of Families on 15th May. People around the world give thanks for good things about their families and work on family problems.A study last year showed that 1,500 Beijing families had the same problem as Zhang’s family. The children,12 to 15 years old, didn’t like talking with their parents much. They weren’t happy at home.But you and your parents will be much happier if you can be friends. Here are some ways to have a good talk with them: Find a good time to talk, like when you’re eating dinner, going out for a walk or watching TV. Tell them something you’re interested in, or ask them about their lives when they were young. They love to talk about it. Listen to them carefully, and look them in the eye. Be honest, and your parents will trust you more.

If you have a hard lesson today, try your best to learn it well”可知,作者建议我们在遇到困难的功课时要尝试并不断努力。故选C。37.细节理解题。根据文章第5段“If you want to achieve your dreams and goals, you have to add one thing to your success formula: Dream→Believe→Act→Achieve”可知,作者在第二个公式中加入的是“行动”。故选A。38.词句猜测题。根据文章第6段“There will be obstacles in our life. We must try to solve them.”可知,生活中会出现需要我们去解决的困难。因此,“obstacles”在这里表示“困难”的意思。故选B。39.最佳标题题。文章反复强调仅有梦想和相信是不够的,最重要的是“persistent action”(持之以恒的行动)。因此,“为你的梦想采取行动”最能概括全文主旨。故选C。40.G 41.E 42.A 43.C 44.F【导语】本文讲述了Shane Keasey从小就梦想成为一名考古学家,通过学校的一次职业体验活动,她对考古工作有了更深的了解,并坚定了自己的梦想。40.根据“Shane said, ‘… It’s very interesting to see the things people created a long time ago.’”可知,此处是Shane说的话,解释她对考古感兴趣的原因,G选项“我从小就对过去感兴趣。”引出了她对考古兴趣的起源,与后文“看很久以前人们创造的东西很有趣”相呼应。故选G。41.根据“Luckily, Shane had a chance to explore her dream at school. … She thought the activity was perfect for her, so she took part in it.”可知,学校提供了一个活动让她探索梦想,E选项“今年,她的班级有一个关于不同职业的活动。”说明了活动的具体内容,与后文“参加活动”衔接自然。故选E。42.根据“During this activity, Shane learned some important things about archaeologists. … Second, they need skills like protecting old objects and using maps.”可知,此处介绍考古学家需要具备的条件,A选项“首先,他们必须接受良好的教育和培训。”是第一个要点,与后文“其次,他们需要技能…”构成并列。故选A。43.根据“Although it sounded hard, Shane got excited. ‘Travelling to new places while finding treasures …’ Her eyes shone as the special job sounded even more interesting than she had thought.”可知,Shane觉得考古工作虽然辛苦但令人兴奋,C选项“那就像最棒的冒险!”表达了她对考古工作的向往和兴奋之情,符合语境。故选C。44.根据“It made her dream feel real and gave her more confidence in the future.”可知,此处总结参加活动的收获,F选项“Shane很高兴参加了这个活动。”引出后文活动的积极影响,符合段落逻辑。故选F。45.B 46.C 47.B 48.A 49.B 50.B 51.C 52.D 53.A 54.B【导语】本文主要介绍了竹子的特性、用途、在中国文化中的意义,以及作者参观四川竹海的经历,最后呼吁人们保护竹子和其他植物。45.句意:竹子是世界上最令人惊奇的植物之一。boring无聊的;amazing令人惊奇的;common普通的;useless无用的。根据“Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant on Earth—some can grow almost one meter in a day!”以及后文介绍的竹子的多种用途、文化意义等可知,竹子是令人惊奇的植物。故选B。46.句意:它生长在许多地方,尤其是在中国。exactly确切地;hardly几乎不;especially尤其是;suddenly突然。根据“Bamboo is one of the most amazing plants in the world.
