Miss Robinson had always been poor.She was teaching Mrs.Livingstone's daughters at home.She was poor but wise and well-educated.
One evening，Mrs.Livingstone hosted a dinner party for important guests.Thirteen guests - an unlucky number，so Mrs.Livingstone invited Miss Robinson.
Miss Robinson sat quietly among the rich guests and did not say anything.She was wearing an old dress of Mrs.Livingstone's and a string of pearls.
One of the guests was Count Borselli who knew everything about pearls.He pointed to Miss Robinson. "That is a very nice string of pearls，" he said. "It is worth more than fifty thousand pounds."Now everyone in the room was silent.Fifty thousand pounds!That was not possible.
"But I bought it for only fifteen shillings，" said Miss Robinson.
At that moment a servant （仆人） came up and spoke quietly to Miss Robinson.All of a sudden，her face went white.
"Excuse me，Mrs.Livingstone，" she said. "I must leave the table.Two men are waiting in the hall.They want to speak to me."
When Miss Robinson was out of the room，everyone began to talk excitedly.
"She's a thief，" said someone. "The two men are policemen.Miss Robinson has stolen that string of pearls."
"A thief in my house，" cried Mrs.Livingstone."How terrible!What has she been teaching my daughters？"
Suddenly there was silence.Miss Robinson had come back and looked much happier，without wearing that string of pearls.Instead，she had a string of pearls in her hand.She passed the string of pearls over to Count Borselli. "How much is this string of pearls，sir？" she asked.
Count Borselli looked at it for a few moments. "Fifteen shillings." he said.
"My string of pearls was broken so I took it to a shop to repair a few days ago.When I went to get it，the shop gave me the wrong string of pearls.That other string of pearls is worth fifty thousand pounds." said Miss Robinson.
Everyone laughed.It had all been a mistake.
"The men in the shop have given me a present of three hundred pounds." said Miss Robinson proudly， "All my life I've never had a holiday.Now I'm going to the south of France."
Six months later，at another dinner，Count Borselli shared the news：Miss Robinson had met and married a wealthy count there，living happily in Paris.— cheap string of pearls has made her a countess and a millionaire.

Imagine this：a device（设备）that uses shadows to make electricity!It sounds like science fiction，but the new Shadow-Effect Energy Generator （SEEG） is a real，experimental device.This cool invention could change how we create clean energy inside our homes and schools.
So，how does it work？The SEEG uses the difference between darkness and light to produce electricity.It is made up of a series of thin strips of gold film on a silicon wafer （硅晶片），placed on top of a flexible plastic base.
Usually，shadows are a problem for renewable solar energy production.But this device uses shadows to help make electricity.The technology - which is cheaper to produce than a traditional solar cell （TSC），according to its developers -produces small amounts of power and could be used in a digital watch or other small gadgets.
"Shadows are everywhere，but we usually ignore them，" said materials scientist Tan Swee Ching from the National University of Singapore. "In this work，we use the illumination contrast（光照差）caused by shadows as an indirect source of power.The contrast in illumination induces a voltage difference between the shadow and illuminated sections，resulting in an electric current.The idea of getting energy from shadows is completely new."
It's that contrast between shadow and light that really makes the SEEG device effective：under shifting shadows，the Shadow-Effect Energy Generator is twice as effective as traditional solar cells under the same conditions，the team discovered.
With passing shadows - caused by clouds or waving tree branches perhaps，or only the movement of the Sun -the device is able to produce enough power to run a digital watch.Through more research and effort，that could well be boosted in the future to satisfy more daily needs.
In the future，the more ways we have of producing renewable electricity，the more imaginative we can get with our gadgets，and the less we need to depend on fossil fuel （化石燃料）for energy production.Shadows can now be added to the list of new energy sources，with snowfall and the cold of outer space.
31.Why does the writer mention the traditional solar cell in Paragraph 3？ ______
A. To introduce the good points of SEE
B. To tell the history of TS
C. To discuss the hard conditions of SEE
D. To solve the mystery of TS
32.Which word has the closest meaning to "boosted"？ ______
A. encouraged B. improved C. practiced D. welcomed
33.The following paragraph can best go after ______ .
When the SEEG is completely in shadow，or fully in the light，it produces a very low amount of electricity，or nothing at all.
A. Paragraph 3 B. Paragraph 4 C. Paragraph 5 D. Paragraph 6
34.What can we learn from the passage about the Shadow-Effect Energy Generator （SEEG）？ ______
A. It can be seen in a science fiction.
B. It has already been put into production.
C. It is more expensive than other electrical devices.
D. It changes the way renewable energy is produced indoors.
四、阅读判断：本大题共3小题，共6分。
Nowadays more and more people have discovered the joy of DIY.It cannot only turn waste into treasure，but also develop your creativity.Moreover，it can make your boring time more interesting.Here's a simple way to build your own musical instrument with useless shoeboxes.
Required items：shoebox with lid，glue，4 to 6 rubber bands（橡皮筋），scissors.
Step-by-step guidelines：
1 Draw an oval-shaped circle on the lid of the shoebox，as shown in Figure A.You may want to go around a small plate with your pencil.Cut out the circle.
2 Mark lines to divide the cut-out circle into thirds，as shown in Figure B.Fold（折叠）on the lines.
3 Glue the center third of the folded circle next to the circular opening（圆孔） on the shoebox to create a support for the rubber-band strings.This will serve as a fret，which is the part on a regular guitar that raises the strings slightly above the neck. （See Figure C）
4 Stretch （延长） the rubber bands across the hole and over the fret，as shown in Figure C.Use rubber bands of different thicknesses and lengths to create different notes.The▲the band is，the higher the pitch （音高） will be.
So next time when you're bored at home after finishing your homework，try doing DIY with things around you instead of spending your time on boring short videos or computer games.
35.Why is the folded circle glued next to the circular opening？ ______
A. To make the shoebox guitar look more like a real one.
