阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成句子。

There are many inventions that have caused great changes in the world. Here is a short introduction of the maglev train (磁悬浮). The history of the maglev train started in the beginning of the 1900s. The American Robert Goddard and the French Emile Bachelet came up with the idea of frictionless (无摩擦的) trains. But scientist didn’t succeed in making it at that time.

About 60 years later, the Japanese started their research on maglev transportation. After many years of experiments, the Japanese began to build their first test line. 7 km in 1975, and finished it in 1977. Many test runs started in July, 1977 with a speed of 517 km/h. In 1990, Japan built the Yamanashi Maglev test line. This test line was 42.8 km long and the first running test was held in 1997.

The Germans also started research on the maglev train in the early 1970s. It took them ten years to make the first track(ti)model. In 1993, the longest nonstop test running was 1,674 km. That same year the speed reached 450km/h.

China finished a 30-km-long maglev train line in Shanghai in 2003. This is the first commercial (商业的) maglev train line in the world. Although this project cost over 1 billion dollars, we should feel proud of it.

1.Robert Goddard and Emile Bachelet ________ the idea of frictionless trains.

2.In 1975, the Japanese began to build ________ of maglev trains.

3.The Germans spent ________ in making the first track model.

4.The Maglev train line in Shanghai is ________ long.

The Building That Moves

Everyone knows that buildings don’t move. They can’t change the way they look. However, architect(建筑师) David Fisher wants to change that.

Fisher has an amazing idea. He wants to make __-story buildings that change shape. Each floor will move around slowly. The floors will move at different speeds. Because of this, the shape of the building is always changing. “These buildings will never look the same,” says Fisher.

His idea is an interesting one. However, Fisher doesn’t stop there. He also wants the building to be “green”. The building will make its own energy. In most buildings, only the top floor has a roof(屋顶). In Fisher’s building, each floor will have its own roof. Each roof has solar panels(太阳能板). This means a lot more solar energy. Also, machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind. They will turn the wind into energy.

Fisher’s ideas sound impossible. However, that’s what people also said before humans traveled into space!

3.What will the Fisher’s building get energy from?

C. The wind and the water. D. The sun and the ground.

4.Why does the writer say “that’s what people also said before humans traveled into space”?

A. To show why Fisher’s building will never work.

B. To show why Fisher’s building is like a spaceship.

When your pen is broken, you think that’s the end of its life. You throw it away. It then joins tons of other garbage that is becoming a big problem in cities.

Each day, about 10,000 tons of waste is produced in Guangzhou, and 17,000 tons of household waste is produced in Beijing. In other countries, the case is similar. “If you’re like most of us, most Americans, you’re making seven pounds (3.17kg) of trash a day,” US writer Edward Humes told CNN. So, an American makes 102 tons of trash in a lifetime.

If you simply throw away that broken pen, it goes to a landfill(垃圾填埋场) and is buried together with many other trash. To prevent polluting the groundwater, workers cover the trash with soil and keep it dry. And your pen will stay there for a long, long time, without having further use. But it could have a better destination: the recycling bin.

Have you ever noticed the different colors of trash bins in the street? Many cities in China have been running a waste-sorting campaign. They divide trash into “recyclable waste” and “unrecyclable waste”. So in Yiwu there are many “Little Yellow Dog” appearing all around the city, even in our campus.

Recycling waste can save energy, reduce greenhouse gas, and keep space free for the unrecyclable trash. Take your pen as an example. At the recycling factory, its metal parts could be taken out and reused to make other things.

But recycling is not enough, experts say. Making less waste in the first place is the way forward. “The best thing to do is just to keep using your stuff for as long as you can,” US writer Adam Minter told Time Out magazine.

1.How much trash does each American make every year on average?

A. 7 kg B. 3.17kg C. 102 tons D. over 1 ton

2.According to the story, how should we deal with broken pens?

A. Throw them away. B. Bury them in a landfill.

C. Put them into a recycling bin. D. Give them to our friend.

3.Waste should be recycled because this can ___.

a. save energy b. produce greenhouse gas c. save landfill space d. save water

A. ab B. bc C. ad  D. ac

4.What is the best way to reduce waste?

A. Recycle different kinds of waste.

B. Keep using your things as long as you can.

C. Keep waste inside your house.

D. Tell people about the importance of recycling.

“My dear Mr Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let (出租) at last?”

Mr Bennet replied that he had not.

“But it is,” returned she, “for Mrs Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.”

Mr Bennet made no answer.

“Do not you want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife impatiently.?

“You want to tell me, and I have no objection (反对) to hearing it.”

This was invitation enough.

“Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune (财富) from the north of England; that he came down on Monday to see the place, and was so satisfied with it that he agreed immediately(立即) )with Mr Morris, the owner of Netherfield, and some of his servants(仆人) are to be in the house by the end of next week.”

“What is his name?”

“Bingley.”

“Is he married or single?”

“Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls! It is probable that he may fall in love with one of them, and so you must visit him as soon as he comes.”

“I see no chance for that. You and the girls may go, or you may send them by themselves, which perhaps will be still better; for, as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr Bingley might like you the best of all.”

“But, my dear, you must indeed go and see Mr Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood.”

“It is more than what I should do, honestly speaking.”

“But consider your daughters.Sir William and Lady Lucas have decided to go, for in general, you know they visit no new comers. Indeed you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him, if you do not.”

But in fact Mr Bennet was among the earliest of those who waited to visit Mr Bingley. He had always planned to visit him, though to the last always lying to his wife that he would not go.

(Adapted from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen)

1.How did Mrs Bennet feel when she heard that Bingley would move there?

A. Excited and hopeful. B. Surprised and crazy.

C. Nervous and curious. D. Pleased and proud.

2.Why did Mr Bennet show no interest in Mr Bingley’s moving there when his wife talked about it?

A. Because his daughters were not pretty enough.

B. Because his wife was prettier than his daughters.

C. Because he didn’t want to show his true feelings to others.

D. Because he didn’t care about his daughters’ happiness.

3.From the conversation between Mr and Mrs Bennet, we can conclude that Mrs Bennet .

A. wanted to tell her husband something about their new neighbor

B. wanted to learn more about their new neighbor

C. wanted to persuade(说服) her husband to see the young man

D. asked her husband to let her visit the new neighbor
