The next decade will see some big changes in tech. Time Magazine listed its top 【1】(invention) of 2019. Some of them will 【2】(certain) become a big part of our everyday lives over the next 10 years. GENNY is the one we’re most looking forward to.
Water, water everywhere, so let’s all have【3】 drink. That old saying must have inspired GENNY, made by Israeli company Watergen. The air around【4】is full of water vapor (蒸汽), 【5】we can’t drink it until now.
GENNY is a machine 【6】makes “safe, clean drinking water” by collect water vapor from the air,【7】(report) Israel Hayom. It can produce up to 27 lit in a day! It's designed to look like a home water cooler. Like its design, its process simple. It collects air, and then cools the air to its freezing point, 【8】(create)liquid water. The water then goes through a cleaning process and minerals 【9】(add) tastiness and health quality.
Watergen's chairperson, Michael Lee, said, “Our goal and 【10】(responsible) to save..... and to change the world for the better.”
【答案】
【1】inventions
【2】certainly
【3】a
【4】us
【5】but
【6】that/which
【7】reported
【8】creating
【9】are added
【10】responsibility
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。未来十年,科技将发生一些重大变化。文章介绍了我们最期待的一项发明——GENNY。
【1】考查名词复数。句意:《时代》杂志列出了2019年的最佳发明。此处invention是名词,2019年的最佳发明不止一个,所以此处用名词复数。故填inventions。
【2】考查副词。句意:在未来10年里,其中一些肯定会成为我们日常生活的重要组成部分。此处become是动词,由副词修饰,所给词certain是形容词,其副词是certainly。故填certainly。
【3】考查不定冠词。句意:水,到处都是水,所以让我们都喝一杯。此处drink是名词,“酒,饮料”,have a drink“喝一杯”。故填a。
【4】考查人称代词宾格。句意:我们周围的空气充满了水蒸气,但直到现在我们才能喝到它。此处around是介词,意思是“在…周围”,后面的人称代词用宾格,故填us。
【5】考查并列连词。句意:我们周围的空气充满了水蒸气,但直到现在我们才能喝到它。前后是一种转折关系,横线后面没有逗号,不用however。故填but。
【6】考查定语从句。句意:据Israel Hayom报道,GENNY是一种通过收集空气中的水蒸气来制造“安全、清洁的饮用水”的机器。此处machine是先行词,指物,在后面的定语从句中作主语,故填that/which。
【7】考查一般过去时态。句意:据Israel Hayom报道,GENNY是一种通过收集空气中的水蒸气来制造“安全、清洁的饮用水”的机器。此处report“报道”是过去发生的动作,所以句子用一般过去时态。故填reported。
【8】考查现在分词作伴随状语。句意:它收集空气,然后将空气冷却到冰点,产生液态水。句子主语it和create之间是主动关系,用现在分词作伴随状语。故填creating。
【9】考查一般现在时态的被动语态。句意:然后,水经过一个清洗过程,矿物质增加了味道和健康质量。主语minerals是复数形式,和add之间是被动关系,且描述一个客观事实,所以句子用一般现在时态的被动语态。故填are added。
【10】考查名词。句意:我们拯救…的目标和责任让世界变得更美好。这里是与goal构成的并列主语,所以用名词形式,所给词responsible是形容词,其名词是responsibility。故填responsibility。
分析定语从句关键抓住两点:第一、找准先行词;第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词,如本题中先行词为名词machine,再分析先行词machine在定语从句中所作的成分,将先行词machine代到从句中可知,只能作主语,故确定关系词为that/which。

An Israeli woman accidentally stepped on a garden snail (蜗牛). Rather than simply ignoring the snail, she picked up all the pieces of 【1】(it) broken shell and took it to Halclinica, a local animal clinic.

【题目】The Metro-Boston public bike share system, Hubway, is now available at a significant discount to low-income people. "SNAP Card to Ride" was started by the cities of Boston, Cambridge, Somerville and the Town Of Brookline.
“SNAP Card to Ride”provides $5 monthly memberships and $50 annual memberships to people over the age of 16 with their household EBT (电子福利转账) card. The membership includes unlimited 60-minute trips, rather than the present 30-minute trips, without additional fees.
The program is part of an ongoing commitment to improving bike share access among traditionally underserved populations. Those who don't receive SNAP benefits but participate in other public assistance programs will be able to gain access to the discounted membership program in the near future.
Convenient, easy online registration (注册) is available for EBT card holders at thehubwav.com/SNAP/. After completing registration, members will have access to over 1,800 bikes at 194'stations across the four municipalities (自治市). Members with smartphone access can also use the Hubway mobile app to locate and unlock bikes.
“The city of Boston is pleased to be part of the SNAP Card to Ride partnership, and we look forward to increasing the number of stations and bikes in Boston over the next 18 months,”said Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh.
“Hubway shows that bike share is fulfilling its promise as a vital part of the Boston area's transportation network -- increasing access to the area's existing transportation network as well as areas underserved by public transportation,”said Jay H. Walder, CEO of Hubway.“We're eager to continue to help grow a system that has truly served as an inspiration for a whole generation of bike share programs across the nation.”
Winter riding is available in all four municipalities for the first time this year, following several years of winter operations in the city of Cambridge. Boston, Brookline, Cambridge and Somerville announced major expansion of the publicly-owned system. In all they'll add over 100 new stations in 2018 and 2019, providing over 300 stations and approximately 3,000 bicycles for public use.

【题目】 How to say hello in Japanese depends on(取决于) when you say it. This is very much like different greetings used in English at different times of the day or night. In Japanese culture, it also depends on whether you are on the phone or meeting somebody or whether you are close to the person you are greeting. We don’t get formal with our close friends. We seldom greet them with “Good morning “ or “Good evening”. A “Hi” is enough.
Although the most popular and most well-known translation for “Hello” is still “Konnichiwa”, it is not exactly how to say hello in Japanese. It is not the most suitable word for it. Actually, the correct greeting in English for “Konnichiwa” is “Good day” or “Good noon,” and I am sure you wouldn’t like greeting people with a “Good day” at any time, and neither do Japanese like saying “Konnichiwa” when they want to say “Hello”.
So what to do? Let’s do it the way the Japanese do. Use “Ohaiyo Gozaimasu” for “Good morning”, “Konnichiwa” when it’s noon and “Konbanwa” to greet somebody in the afternoon. Things differ when you are on the phone. Just say “Moshi, Moshi”, which is actually similar to saying “Hello” over the phone, because one hardly ever uses “Good morning” or “Good evening” right after picking up the phone. Next time, I’ll tell something about my life in Japan.
【1】What is the best title for this passage?
A.How to greet close friends in Japanese.B.How to greet people in Japanese.
C.Some difference between English and Japanese.D.How to say hello in Japanese.
【2】Japanese people greet each other by saying “______” in the afternoon.
A.KonnichiwaB.Ohaiyo GozaimasuC.KonbanwaD.A.Moshi, Moshi
【3】In the writer’s opinion,______.
A.Japanese people don’t like using “Konnichiwa” as a greeting for the whole day.
B.people don’t need to be polite to their close friends
C.Japanese people are very friendly to each other
D.Japanese culture is similar to American culture
【4】We can learn from the passage that the writer_______.
A.lived in Japan for some timeB.is working in a radio station now
C.knows both Japanese and ChineseD.is from Britain

【题目】 The origin of coffee? I never really thought about it. When I was a kid, coffee was always around. My parents drank coffee, my grandparents drank coffee, and all the adults I knew drank coffee. I thought I would drink it too when I was older, and of course. I did.
But there must have been a time before coffee. I don't remember coffee making an appearance in any of the Bible(圣经)stories I learned. Jesus changed water into wine, not coffee. Maybe if coffee had been around, he would have changed some of the water into coffee. Maybe that's what “B. C." in those timelines meant: "before coffee."
According to popular legend, the origin of coffee can be traced to a thousand years ago, when an Abyssinian(Ethiopian)goatherd(牧羊人)named Kaidi observed his goats dancing and jumping. When Kaidi investigated, he saw that the goats were happily eating the red berries(浆果)of an unfamiliar tree. Kaidi decided to try some, and when he did he joined the dancing goats and became “the happiest herder in happy Arabia'.
Some time later, a passing monk(和尚)observed Kaidi and the goats. When Kaidi told him about the berries, the monk thought they might be the answer to his prayers(祈祷). It seems that the monk was always falling asleep in the middle of prayers. When he ate the berries, he stayed awake. The unnamed monk came up with the idea of drying and boiling the berries. It came into the world. His fellow monks loved the new drink because it encouraged them to pray and it tasted good too.
So now that I know about Kaidi and his goats, if someday-in the far, far future, of course someone calls me an "old goat", I'll just smile, take another sip of coffee, and maybe do a little dance.
【1】Why didn't Jesus change water into coffee?
A.Because Jesus didn't like coffee.
B.Because coffee didn't appear at that time.
C.Because it was not the right time to have coffee.
D.Because Jesus was better at changing water into wine.
【2】What is the tone of the author when writing the text?
A.Serious.B.Objective.
C.Scientific.D.Humorous.
【3】The underlined word “it" in paragraph 4 refers to ________.
A.a kind of new drink
B.a kind of food made by monks
C.a kind of soup needed to be boiled
D.a kind of drug encouraging people to keep awake
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.The Origin of Coffee.
B.The Development of Coffee.
C.The Popularity of Coffee in the World.
D.The Coffee-drinking Tradition in My Family.
