How can cactus（仙人掌）help the world？It can provide a new kind of sustainable fuel （可持续燃料）．Nopalimex， a company in Mexico， has made one of the world's first cactus﹣ powered factories．The idea came to Sosa in Nopalimex when he was looking for ways to save money for his food factory， He now powers his factory with cactus gas （气体）． The cost to produce the gas is half the cost of electricity．
Soon， the gas produced by Nopalimex will also be used in cars．Nopalimex's gas is made by using the prickly pear （刺梨） a kind of cactus．To make the gas，the prickly pear is mixed together with manure （肥料）． Then the mixture produces the gas that can be used as fuel．
Why cactus？ Fuel can be made from other plants such as corn，but there are a few reasons why cactus is a better choice． First， prickly pears need very little water and very lite care， and grow well in hot temperatures． Today， these characteristics （特点） are key． Also， unlike corn， prickly pears don't need space that could be used for other food plants． They can grow in areas where many food plants can′t grow． Last，after making gas from prickly pears and manure， their byproducts （副产品）can be used to help grow food．
Scientists still need to do more research on making and using prickly pear gas． As projects like Nopalimex show， we have the possibility to produce more sustainable fuel to power our lives．
（1）How can cactus help the world？
A． By saving farmers' money．
B． By providing a new kind of sustainable fuel．
C． By taking the place of corn．
D． By producing a lot of electricity and gas．
（2）Why does Sosa power his factory with cactus gas？
A． Because he wants to save money for his food factory．
B． Because he has grown a lot of cactus and com in his town．
C． Because he wants to be well﹣known around the world．
D． Because he wants to grow cactus instead of corn．
（3）What does the underlined word "mixture" in Paragraph 2 refer to（指代）？
A． The Nopalimex company．
B． The manure．
C． The prickly pear and manure．
D． Cactus．

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． Then， each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me． So I can check their homework 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， with many pictures， music and even videos．
Guo's students like the new way and think it is interesting． "We are living in the information age． Many students like to work with computers， which makes learning more fun．" said Tingting， a student of Guo's．
"The paper is not easy to keep， but the code is easy to keep and share．" Guo said，"It is worth trying to use new technology in education． Education itself is a kind of creation． I don't want my students to fall behind the times．"
However， some parents are worried． They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers． But in fact， it's unnecessary． Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework． They only use the code when they hand in their homework， which doesn't take them too much time． Also for teachers， it allows them to check the students' homework at any time． And it's also an easy way to share homework with other students．
（1）According to the passage， students can keep their homework on ．
A． WeChat
B． QQ
C． email
D． blog
（2）Guo's students think the new way is ．

A． The paper is not easy to keep．
B． Keeping and sharing the code easily．
C． Trying to use new technology in education．
D． Education itself is a kind of creation．
（4）Some parents are worried， because they think their children will ．
A． talk with teachers face to face
B． spend too much time on computers or phones
C． not like the new way of handing in homework
D． find the QR codes too difficult to use
（5）What's the main idea of the passage？
A． Teachers needn't check homework any more．
B． Students needn't hand in homework any more．
C． Using QR codes makes checking homework easier．
D． Some parents are worried about their children．
Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework？ You might wish that you could read faster．There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds． But experts disagree on this idea．
"Speed reading is not actually possible，" said Elizabeth Schotter，a scientist at the University of South Florida， US． Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books．
In fact， speed reading has been made known to people since 1959， when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program． Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses． However， there is no real science behind speed reading．
Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish． It includes four steps： seeing a word， getting back its meaning from your memory， connecting it to other words in the same sentence， and then moving on to the next word．This process uses many parts of the brain at one time． It can't be sped up．
Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming． Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences．
Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information．
So is there a way to become a faster reader？ Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more．
（1）According to Schotter， which of the following is TRUE？
A． It's good for students to read at super high speeds．
B． Speed reading courses are supported by real science．
C． Reading includes four steps，it's not easy to finish．
D． Speed reading courses and books are useful for us．
（2）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
A． Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information．
B． You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it．
C． Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage．
D． By skimming， skimmers may find the main idea of a passage．
（3）According to this passage， how to read faster？
A． Learn more words and read more．
B． Taking speed reading courses can help．
C． Read more books about speed reading．
D． See the words at super﹣high speeds．
When ice is on the ocean， the polar bears are on the hunt． They are hunting seals．Polar bears need the ice． They can't catch seals as well in the water， where there is no ice．
In summer， some of the sea ice becomes water．Now，however， the sea ice is becoming water earlier than it used to．There is not as much time for the polar bears to hunt for food．They should have enough fat in their bodies to keep them from getting hungry．Some polar bears， however，haven't been able to get enough to eat． By the end of the summer， they are going to die．
Scientists want to learn all they can about polar bears and how they can help them．To help the bears，they have to do tests．It is difficult， however，for scientists to get close to the bears．Scientists fly in a helicopter， over the places where polar bears live．When they notice a bear， they shoot a pointed object at it． The object makes the bear go to sleep．While the bear is asleep，the scientists can do their tests．The most important test is the fat test． If the bear hasn't eaten for two months， it won't have enough fat to live on．
Many people are worried about the ice that is becoming water．Polar bears have to go further and work harder to find food． If the ice keeps becoming water， one day there might not be any polar bears．
（1）The underlined word "hunt" in the first paragraph means： ．
A．搜集
B．游荡
C．狩猎
D．探索
（2）If polar bears want to find food，what do they need？

I remember…
Mary Chan asked her grandfather what he could remember about his secondary school． This is part of what he told her…
I'll never forget Mr. Tan．We called him Tiger Tan．He was our math teacher when I was in Sec 1．He was a wiry（筋骨强壮的），muscular man and he was very strict．I never saw him smile while I was at school．
Mr. Tan was an excellent math teacher． He explained everything slowly and clearly on the blackboard．When he looked at the class， you had to be looking at his hawk﹣like eyes．He stared at us like a tiger facing a group of rabbits． If you weren't looking directly at him， he summoned（命令）you to the front of the class． Then he took "Joey" from his cupboard． "Joey" was a length of garden hose about half a metre long． After few painful wallops（猛）from "Joey" you paid attention all the time!
Sometimes Mr. Tan felt that the class was getting sleepy． Then he suddenly said， "Outside everybody! Round the school! RUN!" He stood at the door of the classroom， waiting for us to return． He had a slipper（拖鞋）and hit the last one or two pupils． I was usually the first back．
We were all scared of Tiger Tan． We didn't like him but we respected（敬重）him． He was a good teacher and was always fair．
We had a very different math teacher in Sec 3． He was Mr. Hu． He was cheerful and friendly．When he entered the room， somebody would ask him how a camera worked． Then he spent the rest of the lesson explaining how something worked． He drew diagrams on the board and sometimes one of us asked another question to keep him talking． Most of the class sat and day﹣dreamed about food or sport． We weren't really interested in cameras． We just wanted to avoid doing any work．
We liked Mr. Hu but we didn't respect him． We knew that we didn't learn much in his lessons．
（1）In Mr. Tan's class， ．
A． his students had to pay attention all the time

（3）Mr. Tan asked his students to run outside to make them ．
A． strong and healthy
B． refilled with energy
C． scared of him
（4）In Mr. Hu's class， his students asked him about cameras because ．

Lively music， singing and the sound of beating drums fill the room．As an orchestra（管弦乐队） plays performers dressed in colorful costumes move across the stage（舞台）． Welcome to Chinese opera．
Chinese opera is an important（元素）of Chinese culture． Most operas are based on stories from long ago． The amazing stage performances are often set against grand backgrounds． Beautiful paintings hand movements and martial arts（武术）help tell these famous stories．
There are more than 300 forms of Chinese opera， including Beijing Opera， Yue Opera， Yu Opera， Ge Zai Xi and many other forms． of all of them， Beijing Opera is the most famous． Beijing Opera combines（合并）singing， dancing and acrobatics． Instruments such as drums， bells and cymbals accompany（伴奏）the performances．
Facial design
Traditionally， performers used masks（面具） for their facial design． Today， however， performers use makeup， They paint colorful designs on their faces． These colors and designs help to create each character． For example， a brave character has a red face， while a black face means bold． A yellow and white face represents （代表） someone who is dishonest．
Costumes
Costumes give clues（线索）to the performers' characters and roles．Audiences（观众）that are familiar with opera will get to know a story by the masks and costumes． Costumes usually have many designs and colors． The same costume can be used in different shows， however， it will represent a different character．
Promoting the arts
Many colleges and schools in China desire（渴望）to keep the art of Chinese opera alive． They provide an education system for talented students． Applicants（应试者）must pass a written test，an audition（试镜）and an interview and only the most promising students are accepted to study at these colleges and schools． Once accepted into the program， students begin a seven﹣to﹣twelve﹣year journey through the school． After graduation， many go on to work as professional actors on stage or in the movies．

To many people，art is a human expression of creativity．But in recent years，you may have read news about artificial intelligence（AI） creating its own art，such as painting or writing poems．Some people worry that AI might someday replace（替代） artists．
But this worry seems to be unnecessary，at least for now．Many artists today are turning AI into a useful tool． Instead of replacing artists，AI is bringing artists more possibilities．
A piece of music created by Al recently attracted attention．AI was used to create the music based on the protein（蛋白质） structure of COVID﹣19．The music lasted nearly two hours．The project was led by Markus Buehler， an American musician and MIT professor（教授） of engineering．He assigned（指定） a unique note（独特的音符） to each amino acid（氨基酸）in the protein．The AI then translated these notes into music．
Listeners found the project "mind﹣blowing"．"It allows me to see the virus in a new way，"said one listener．This surprising combination（结合） between science and art could not be achived without AI．As The Verge wrote，"AI helps artists play around in unpredictable ways，creating things beyond（超过）what they have ever thought was possible before．"
Apart from creating imaginative works，AI can also take care of repetitive（重复乏味的）tasks for artists．For example，in the comic and cartoon industries，there are now AI tools that can automatically（自动）color in back﹣and﹣white line drawings．Although the results can be unpredictable and require a little cleanup，it can give artists room to experiment（实验），by cutting down the time it takes to color each picture．
As Peter Ward wrote for The Culture Trip，"Art of every kind has always been influenced by technological developments．"AI can become a useful tool to bring change to the art world if it's welecomed and not unfairly feared．
（1）According to the passage， AI can't now．
A．write poems
B．paint
C．replace artists
D．create music
（2）Which of the following is NOT true according to the third and fourth paragraphs？
A．AI created a piece of music about COVID﹣19．
B．Many of AI's art creations are beyond artists' imagination．
C．Science and art can be combined with the help of AI．
D．Markus Buehler was not a professor of engineering，but a musician．
（3）The underlined phrase "Apart from" in the fifth paragraph can be replaced by" "．
A．Besides
B．Instead of
C．Because of
D．According to
（4）What's the main idea of the passage？
A．Technological developments have greatly influenced people's daily life．
B．AI has been widely used in science research．
C．AI is bringing more help to the art world as a useful tool
D．AI's creativity has caused more and more worries．
