题目内容

【题目】 When the Bayside campus of Shekou International School (SIS) are still kept shut because of the COVID-19 pandemic, teaching activities at the school have been resumed online since Feb. 3rd, 2020.

The school is using popular apps and software for online learning. Video conferencing and office automation are used to help teachers keep track of students’ conditions and communicate with their workmates across the world. Teaching online also offers a new experience to the teachers to update their teaching methods and to step out of their comfort zones.

Staying in Phuket, Thailand, science teacher Riley Laird records videos on a 10-year-old green sea turtle named Marlin and the local turtle sanctuary as part of the online classes on ecosystems for Grade 7 students. “I want to connect our learning with the reality. The sanctuary sends us updates on the turtles’ health and progress. They say that Marlin is likely to be released into the sea in mid-June,” says Laird.

Rebecca Wallace is a Grade 4 teacher at the school, staying in her mother’s home in New York. From 8 p.m. to midnight every day, she starts teaching mathematics and arts to her students living in different time zones. Though teaching nearly around the clock, Wallace says that she is getting to know the students better in terms of their homes, family and even pets.

Greg Smith, head of SIS, names the online teaching period a “new normal” at the school. “Students are now more skillful at using technology than before. They see that communication is the most powerful part of being an effective learner and can use the tools to shrink distance and time. The “new normal” will offer more choices for connection to the world and more focus on creating real solutions,” he says.

According to the school, 68% of its students are staying in Shenzhen while 27% of them are staying abroad for the epidemic.

练习册系列答案

In his Annual Letter 2015, Gates made the prediction that Africa’s agriculture industry would increase productivity by 50% by 2030. Now the continent buys about $50 billion worth of food from other countries each year, although 70% of people in Africa are farmers. “In the next 15 years，however，creations in farming will solve the food problem in Africa,” Gates wrote. “The world has already developed crops that are more productive; with all the technologies, African farmers could possibly double their harvests.”

By 2035, there could be almost no poor countries. In his Annual Letter 2014, Gates bravely predicted that continued levels of foreign help could mean there would be almost no more poor countries by 2035. “Almost all countries will be what we now call lower-middle income or richer,” Gates explained. “Countries will learn from their most productive neighbors and benefit from things like better seeds and the digital revolution. ”

By 2030, the world will discover a clean-energy breakthrough to power our world. One of Gate’s more hopeful predictions which came in 2016 said that wind, solar, or some other renewable resources would power most of the world within 15 years. “The difficulty we face is big, perhaps bigger than many people imagine,” he wrote in his letter. “But so is the chance to make things better.” Many of the poor countries he visited had no running water or electricity. At night this meant they couldn’t light or power their homes, and keep businesses open.” If the world can find a type of cheap, clean energy, it will do more than prevent climate change,” he wrote. “It will change the lives of millions of the poorest families.”

【1】What does the author think of Gates’ predictions?

A.They sound quite unreal.B.They are mainly about computers.

C.They will probably come true.D.They haven’t produced any end result.

【2】How is the agriculture in Africa?

A.It is losing its workforce.B.It is in need of productivity.

C.It can satisfy the local needs.D.It is as backward as Africa’s industry.

【3】What should poor countries do according to Gates?

A.Use expensive seeds.B.Expect less foreign help.

C.Rely on the digital revolution.D.Learn from the experience of other countries.

【4】What’s Gates’ attitude to clean-energy development?

A.It’s no easy task.B.It’s hard to imagine.

C.It can put climate change to an end.D.It has little to do with poor families.

【题目】 Many people believe that language belongs to human beings. However, cats have developed a language not for each other, but for the human beings who have them as pets.

When communicating with each other, cats "talk" with a system of signals. Their tails, rather than any kind of “speech", act as an important way to express themselves. They also touch each other to express their feelings. With other cats, they will use their voice only to express pain. Unbelievably, all of that changes when a human walks into the room. Cats use many different kinds of vocal （声音的）expressions when they communicate with a person. Since these vocal expressions are not used to communicate with other cats, it seems that cats have developed this "language" to communicate with their human owners.

This fact is shown more clearly when researchers are watching rooms that have only one cat and those with several cats. And when there is only one cat in the room, it is usually very vocal, since the only creature around with whom the cat can communicate is its owner. Cats with other cats, though, are much quieter. If they want to have a conversation, they only need go to other cats and communicate in their natural way.

Since cats have learned to meow（喵喵叫） for the only purpose of communicating with human owners, their owners should take the time to learn what their different meows mean. If an owner knows, to name just a few examples, which meow means the cat is hungry, which means the cat .wants to be petted, and which means the cat wants to have a little "conversation" , the relationship between cats and owners will be closer.

【1】If a cat, together with other cats, finds its body hurts, it may express it with its _______.

A.tailB.eyes

C.headD.voice

【2】When a human enters a room with some cats, what will they do?

A.Stop making any noise.B.Use their tails to show love.

C.Begin .to use vocal expressions.D.Stop communicating with each other.

【3】What are cat owners advised to do?

A.Communicate more with cats.B.Learn to meow in different ways.

C.Encourage cats to talk with each other.D.Teach cats to understand human language.

【4】What is the text mainly about? . .

A.The language of cats.B.Advice on keeping pets.

C.Pets* different expressions.D.Communication among cats.

【题目】 An animated(动画) film Coco has made a dark horse in the Chinese film box office competition at the end of these recent two years. Since its first run on Nov 24, 2017 in China, the animation has taken in over 602 million yuan. Against the background of the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos, a day in memory of the dead, it centers on a 12-year-old boy named Miguel accidentally transported to the land of the dead, where he seeks his great-great-grandfather’s help to be a great musician and also return him to his family.

Coco has scored 9. l of 10 points at Chinese movie review website Douban for its warm story, popular soundtrack and, most of all, meaningful theme. However, the film wasn't favored by Chinese moviegoers at first because of the poor translation of the film title.

It was called “Xun Meng Huan You Ji”, meaning the journey to chase dreams in Chinese.” It's such an improper name. The film is more than a little boy's musical dreams—it also explores the meaning of life and death." said a Sina Weibo user Gu Xudong. “The awful translation almost made me miss such a great film. When I first noticed its name, I thought it another Forrest Gump.” said the Sina Weibo user Xiao Pihai.

Some locations featured in the animation have gained much attention on Chinese social media platforms like WeChat and Sina Weibo. And many people expressed their hopes to visit these scenic spots in the future. Meanwhile, the film's universal values that you should cherish your family and loved ones won much appreciation from the audiences. The boy's grandma Coco reminded me of my grandmother. I couldn't help but sob at the cinema." said the netizen Xu Lingling.

The meaning of life and death is an everlasting issue for humans. And it seems unlikely to be explored in animation, but more animated films are going in that direction. Coco tells us, “Death is not a scary thing at all, but being forgotten by others should be.” “The physical death is not the final destination. The moment when no living people remember who you are, then you have gone forever,” is one of the most impressive lyrics in the film.

【1】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph1 refer to?

A.the background.B.the animation.

C.the Mexican holiday.D.the memory of the dead.

【2】Coco has achieved great success at the popular Chinese movie review website mainly because of _______.

A.interesting story.B.meaningful theme.

C.positive energy.D.popular soundtrack.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Xu Lingling had a low opinion of the translation of the film title.

B.People would rather die than be forgotten by others.

C.The film’s values won much appreciation from the audiences.

D.Many people visited these scenic locations featured in the animation.

【4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A.People increasingly love cross cultural stories.

B.An animated film exploring life and death wins big.

C.Profound truths are revealed in an animated film.

D.Poor translation arouses debate.

A phenomenon known as "in-need-of-praise" has taken Chinese social media by storm. Users can now join a chat group on WeChat or QQ, where they will 【1】 (praise) and gain encouragement from others—for a price. The "in-need-of praise" chat groups are a reflection of Chinese culture 【2】 values modesty and humility (谦逊), leading many people to often cover their true emotions. In Chinese culture,【3】 (open) seeking and giving praise is uncommon. The trend seemed to have started with a chat group on the platform Douban four years ago. Since March many other chat groups 【4】 (become) popular, especially among young people. For them, 【5】(gain) recognition from peers is more important than getting approval from older 【6】(generation).

The biggest risk is the constant focus on the “false self”, which makes 【10】harder to see the “true self”.
