Will who7was so pessimistic about the job, felt a sense of 8 , and so did his father.

【题目】In a strange example of “art inspires life”,the selfdrying jacket that Marty McFly wore in the movie,Back to the Future ,has actually become a reality. A model has already been created and a Kickstarter campaign plans to raise funds for mass production.

The jackets,named SDJ01,are classified as wearable tech,because of the inner air circulation(环流;循环) system that speeds the drying process from the inside out. Under normal circumstances,you can expect the jacket to dry in about 1-2 minutes after being exposed to rain or a spilled drink. If you jump into a pond to escape danger,it will probably take longer.

“Think of how quickly your clothes dry when you turn a standard fan on them. Now imagine how quickly breathable(透气的),water resistant(……) material dries when exposed to concentrated,highpressure air. In lab tests,our jacket consistently experienced noticeable drying effects after just 30 seconds,with the average time of about a minute to achieve a 90% drying effect,” explained Aaron Coleman,lead designer at Falyon Wearable Tech,which is producing the jacket.

“This is something that has been on my mind for years,” he said. He didn’t want it to be just a movie prop,but an actual usable jacket. “We wanted to follow the basic design of the jacket from the movie Back to the Future but update it a bit,adding more pockets for all the things people carry around these days.”

Eventually,Coleman and his team hit upon the perfect combination of water resistant material and highpressure air circulation to achieve complete drying in just one minute. The outer layer is made of water resistant nylon,with insulation(绝缘材料) made of polyester fibre on the inside. It dries itself through a couple of socalled “air amplifiers(放大器)” attached to the sides,which force more air through the jacket.

According to the makers,the SDJ01 is ideal for rainy days and spills,and the fans are perfect to cool off on days “when you’re just a little too warm,but it’s too cold to take off your jacket”.

1How long does the SDJ01 take to achieve a 90% drying effect,on average?

A. About 30 seconds.

B. About a minute.

C. About 1-2 minutes.

D. Longer than 2 minutes.

2According to Aaron Coleman,in what way is the design different,compared with the jacket in Back to the Future

A. The number of pockets.

B. The function of pockets.

C. The colour of pockets.

D. The shape of pockets.

3What is the main achievement by Coleman and his team in developing the SDJ01?

A. The noticeable drying effects of high pressure air on wet clothes.

B. The inner air circulation system can speed the drying process from the outside.

C. The perfect combination of water resistant material and highpressure air circulation.

D. The various functions of water resistant materials during rainy days and spills.

4What is the main idea of the passage?

A. The ideal design of a selfdrying jacket.

B. Marketing strategies for a selfdrying jacket.

C. The development of a selfdrying jacket.

D. A basic introduction to a selfdrying jacket.

【题目】An old man went to live with his son, daughterinlaw, and fouryearold grandson. The family ate together at the table, but his shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughterinlaw became angry with the mess. So they set a small table in the corner. There Grandfather ate alone while they enjoyed dinner.

Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The grandson watched silently. One evening, the father noticed the son playing with wood scraps(碎块) and asked the child sweetly, “What are you making?” The boy responded, “Oh, I am making a bowl for you and Mum to eat your food in when I grow up.”

The words struck the parents so hard that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. The son gently led Grandfather back to their table. From then on, he ate every meal with them. Neither of them seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

【题目】Have you ever wondered why birds sing?Maybe you thought that they were just happy.After all,you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.However,they sing most of the time for a very different reason.Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

Do you know what a “territory” is?A territory is an area that an animal,usually the male,claims (声称) as its own.Only he and his family are welcome there.No other families of the same species are welcome.Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you,you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so,you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him.A bird does the same thing.But he expects an outsider almost any time,especially at nesting season.So he is screaming all the time,whether he can see an outsider or not.This screaming is what we call a bird’s song,and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.

You can see that birds have a language all their own.Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.

1What is a bird’s “territory”?

A. A place where families of other species are not accepted.

B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.

C. An area for which birds fight against each other.

D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.

2Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?

A. Because they want to invite more friends.

B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.

C. Because they want to find outsiders around.

D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.

3How does the writer explain birds’ singing?

A. By describing birds’ daily life.

B. By reporting experiment results.

C. By comparing birds with human beings.

D. By telling.
