Mr Guo is a teacher from Xi'an．He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code （二维码）．"We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate （使产生） the codes，and in the end everything gets easier，"said Guo．"When students finish the homework，they keep it on WeChat （微信）．Then，each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me．So I can check their work everywhere using my computer or telephone．"
The QR codes can be sent to Mr Guo by email，QQ and WeChat．When Guo scans （扫描） his
students'QR codes，their homework appears on his phone．He finds that their homework becomes more
creative （创新的），with many pictures，music and even videos．

Bike﹣sharing has swept across China，with an increasing number of people choosing bike riding instead of driving．The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it，and those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smart phone and left anywhere in public．Bike﹣sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily．
In some cities，we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing﹣bikes．It's very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smart phone．First，you have to download such an APP on your smart phone．Then what you need to do is to find a nearest bike through the APP，scan the QR code on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection．You will find the bike can be unlocked itself．Then you can enjoy your trip．What's more，the greatest advantage of bike﹣sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it．The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend．Normally，every hour you ride，you need to pay one yuan．It doesn't cost so much，does it？
At the same time，some people park the bikes in their own homes．Besides，some people don't value the bikes．Now service companies are trying to solve the problem like being stolen．
Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles．We have to say bike﹣sharing brings us more convenience without doubt．And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use．

My 14﹣year﹣old son，John，and I saw the coat at the same time in a second﹣hand clothing store．It stood out among big and old coats．It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, ＄ 28．I looked at my son and we both said nothing，but John's eyes shone．Dark．woolen coats were popular with teenage boys，but new ones could cost several hundred dollars This coat was even better．John tried it on and turned from side to side，eyeing himself in the mirror．It fit him so well．
John wore the coat to school the next day．After he came home，I asked，"Did the kids like your coat？"
"They love it，"he said with a big grin．
Over the next few weeks，John changed．He was polite，less argumentative，more thoughtful，and much happier．"Good dinner，mom．"he would say every evening．Without a word of complaining，he would carry in wood for the stove．One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner，John，who always put things off．said，"You're right．I guess I will．"When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers，she joked that the coat must have changed him．
John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes．But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes，we may try to be better in thought，speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside．
46．What can we learn from the first paragraph？

B．John liked the coat very much．
C．They often went shopping together．
D．The writer didn't want to buy the coat．

50．What does the writer want to say through this passage？
A．What we wear could help what we are．
B．Life is full of possibilities when we are young．
C．We should not judge people by their appearance．
D．It's a good choice to try different things in our lives．
When meeting strangers， we usually notice their hair， skin colour and clothes． We like to group those things we don't know by comparing them with the things we know．
So what's wrong with this？ For example， we think that short boys can't possibly be good basketball players． The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent students． Or we think shy students can't be good at giving speeches． These are typical（典型的） examples of stereotypes．
Stereotypes make people form a wrong opinion about others at first sight． In fact， it takes a lot more than just looking at a person to know and understand him or her． The following is my story．
One day， it was snowing， but not very heavily． Before class， I collected all the exercise books and sent them to the teachers' office． The exercise books looked piles in my arms， so I could hardly see the ground． Suddenly， I slipped over（滑倒） and dropped all the exercise books I was carrying．
I tried to stand up but failed， I was about to pick them up when I saw a boy coming towards me． It was Mike．
Mike and I had been classmates for over 2years， but we had never shared more than 5sentences together． He was a boy with few words， but I liked talking． We were totally different． I didn't like him and didn't want to be seen at that moment．
"Anything serious？" His words brought me out of my thoughts． "I saw you sitting on the ground from the back window， so I rushed here． Let me help you!" He helped me up and picked all the exercise books up．
Seeing this， I was so moved that I couldn't say a single word．
We walked towards the teachers' office and this time， he talked a lot to me． I found quite a different Mike．
I took a deep breath and said to myself， "I nearly made a big mistake ﹣ judging（判断） MIke only by his appearance．"
26． Which of the following is NOT mentioned as typical examples of stereotypes？
A： Dishonest children can't be others' true friends．
B： Shy students can't be good at giving speeches．
C： Short boys can't possibly be good basketball players．
D： The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent students．
27． Why did the writer dislike Mike at the beginning？
A： Because the writer didn't know Mike at all．
B： Because Mike didn't hand in his exercise book．
C： Because the writer thought they weren't the same type．
D： Because Mike didn't help the writer collect the exercise books．

Parents of very young children know this：You catch your child in the act of stealing the cookie﹣﹣the evidence of candy written on his or her face．However，you get a wide﹣eyed denial："I didn't do it!"
Learning to tell the truth，even at the risk of punishment，is an important part of moral （道德） development，and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there．
Early 2017 Professor Craig E．Smith published a study．He and his workmates chose 48children between four and nine years of age．They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong，such as taking a classmate's toy or candy，and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing （承认） it．In each case，they asked the children，How would the child feel？How would the mother feel？
The children's answers were generally divided according to age，which is in agreement with the stolen candy，lying and getting unpunished．They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed．However，the seven﹣to﹣nine﹣year﹣olds were more likely （可能的） to think the child would feel better confessing the crime and that the parent would have positive （积极的） feelings towards a confessor．
Smith says，"Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child's confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie．Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action．"He adds，what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses．
42．What does the underlined word"denial"in Paragraph 1mean？
A．委屈 B．责备 C．否认 D．拒绝
43．Paragraph 2 mainly tell us ．
A．kids can't tell"right"from"wrong"
B．it takes time for kids to learn to tell the truth
C．it's wrong to punish kids for telling the truth
D．all the kids are willing to confess to a bad act
44．What did Smith and his workmates find in their study？
A．Older kids are more likely than younger children to confess to a bad act．
B．Younger children are more likely than older kids to confess to a bad act．
C．The four﹣to﹣five﹣year﹣olds would feel better confessing the crime
D．The seven﹣to﹣nine﹣year﹣olds thought parents would be angry with their confessions．
45．According to Professor Smith，what can parents learn from these studies？
A．Parents should at once punish the children who lied．
B．Parents should tell children the wrongness of lying．
C．Parents should never get angry after their children's confessions．
D．Parents should show positive feeling about their children's confessions．
Still in shock!I moved around the house purposelessly trying to decide what to put into the suitcases （行李箱）．Earlier that evening，I'd received a call telling me that my brother was killed in a car crash．"Come as soon as you can．"cried my mother．
I wanted to hurry to her at once．But my husband，Larry，and I were packing to move from New York to Seattle．Our house was in total mess．Supper dishes sat on the kitchen table．Toys lay everywhere．I purposelessly picked things up and put them down．Mother's crying went through my head again and again．
Larry called some friends to tell them what had happened．Someone asked to speak to me．"If there's anything I can do，let me know．"But I didn't know what to ask for．
Suddenly，the doorbell rang．It was Emerson．He and his wife Donna lived in the block nearby．
"I've come to clean your shoes，"he said．
I asked him to repeat．
"Donna had to stay with the baby，"he said，"but we want to help you．I remember when my father died，it took me hours to clean our shoes for the funeral （葬礼）．Give me all your shoes．"
I gathered all our dirty shoes to the kitchen．Emerson got to work right away．Watching him devoting himself to one task helped me pull my own thoughts into order．I told myself to wash clothes first．Then，Larry and I bathed the children and put them to bed．One job after another．
When we returned to clear the dishes，Emerson had left．All our shoes stood in a line against the wall，clean，shining．I couldn't help crying．Early next morning，we left for the airport with all the jobs done．
Now whenever I hear of a friend who's lost a loved one，I no longer call with the polite offer，"If there's anything I can do …"Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that man's need，like taking the dog to the boarding kennel，or house﹣sitting during the funeral．If the person asks，"How did you know I needed that one？"I reply，"Because a man once cleaned my shoes．"
34．The writer didn't know what to put into the suitcases because ．
A．she couldn't do it on her own
B．she was too sad to do anything
C．she wanted to take everything to Seattle
D．she was not good at housework

Dear Headmaster，
Lately our class has become worried about the environment at the back of the school，and we would like to do something to make it more attractive．We have done some research and have come up with a plan．With the help of our parents，we can do most of the work ourselves，but we will need a small amount of money for equipment，plants﹣and paint．I am writing to ask the council for permission to do this work and to ask if the school council could donate 500towards our project．
We would like to turn the empty land at the back of the school into a nature garden．We would plant trees and grasses，make paths through the garden and dig a small pond．We think this would provide a peaceful place for students and teachers to walk in．It would also attract birds，insects and small animals which students could then study in science classes．We would also like to paint the back wall of the school that faces the new garden．Some of our art classes could then paint a huge picture on it．It might be possible to paint over the wall each year so the next classes can make a new picture．
Lastly，we would like to paint all the rubbish bins．At the moment they look old and the paint is coming off．If we paint them in bright，attractive colours，students might be more likely to use them．We think our plan would greatly improve the back of the school and everyone in the school would benefit．We have already asked our parents and they have promised to donate one weekend of their time to help us complete the project．
We hope you will give us permission for this worthwhile project and will be able to donate the ＄500we need．When we have finished the work，we hope the council will join us in a celebration morning tea so that the whole school can thank you．
Yours sincerely，
Jim White

A new rubbish sorting system （垃圾分类系统） has been put into use in Fangchengyuan Community in Beijing． Local people not only sort their rubbish， but also put QR codes（二维码） on it．
"When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen， I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money，" one of the local people told reporters． "It's really creative and encouraging．"
This smart system has been carried out in 350communities in Beijing． The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting． For example， Shenzhen and Shanghai have made laws to punish sorting rubbish correctly．
China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year． Much of the rubbish is buried（填埋） in soil or burned without being sorted． Landfills（填埋场） take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby． And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases． Through rubbish sorting， we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution．
What's more， rubbish sorting saves resources， which could bring economic benefits（经济利益）． For example， a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850kg of paper， saving 17trees and 50percent of water． Because of their benefits， some countries have developed successful sorting systems．
Japan has a strict and detailed system． When people throw away a water bottle， the cap， the wrapper（包装纸） and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins． Every year， families receive special rubbish sorting timetables and directions from their local governments． They are advised to follow the timetables and directions when they throw away rubbish．
In Australia， every family is provided with three rubbish bins﹣﹣the red lid（盖子） bin for "general waste" like food and plastic bags， the yellow lid bin for "recycling" like steel and glass， and the green lid bin for "green waste" such as grass and leaves． On the streets， the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside． It makes recycling quite easy．
41． What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Fangchengyuan Community？
A． A computer．
B． A car．
C． A lot of money．
D． Some small gifts．
42． Which of the following is NOT the consequence（后果） of burying rubbish？

C． Taking up a lot of land．
D． Saving resources．
43． Which paragraph discusses the economic benefits of rubbish sorting？
A． Paragraph 3．
B． Paragraph 4．
C． Paragraph 5．
D． Paragraph 6．
44． In Australia， which bin should you put food left after dinner in？
A． The red lid bin．
B． The yellow lid bin．
C． The green lid bin．
D． The black lid bin．
45． Which of the following is TRUE according to the text？
A． In Australia， the green lid bin is used for all kinds of recyclable（可回收的） wastes．
B． In Japan， all kinds of things for recycling are printed on rubbish bins．
C． Japanese people cannot throw a bottle into a bin unless they move away the rapper first．
D． Australian people have to obey local timetables and directions to throw away rubbish strictly．

"Do what？"he asked．
"You put that thing in my bed，"Trudy told him，stepping out from behind Mama．
"Don't think that just because it's your birthday you can get away with something like this，"Mama scolded （责骂）．

"Course I do，"he said．
"Then you apologize （道歉）．"
Calvin dropped his head．"Sorry Trudy，"he muttered （嘟囔）．
"Here，"Mama said．"Happy birthday．"At the breakfast table she handed Calvin an envelope．Inside were tickets to the matinee show of Lomax the Magnificent，the world﹣famous magician and hypnotist．"You've got two tickets there，"Mama said，"and I know someone who'd really love to go along．"She smiled at Trudy．
"You don't mean here，do you？"Calvin asked，eyeing his little sister．
"Well，that would be really nice．But those tickets are yours．If you want to ask somebody﹣"Calvin didn't wait for his mother to finish．He rushed out of the house to cell Rodney，his pal next door，that the two of them were going to see Lomax the Magnificent．
