What should we do in our daily life to stop wasting food? We can do many things to prevent it

from happening. Here are some tips:

all the food you order, take the rest of it home.

4．根据短文内容选择正确答案。


C

Grace, usually known as the Home of Microsoft, is inside an office building in Redmond,
Washington. Once you come into the building, you will feel that you're in a modern and future
home.

When you enter the building, Grace's voice, coming from a hidden speaker, tells you your
messages. In the kitchen, you set a bag of flour（面粉） on a flat stone table. Grace sees what
you're doing and makes a menu of flour-based foods on the table. Once you choose one, Grace
gives you ingredients（配料）.

There's also a notice board in the kitchen made of “intelligent（智能的） cloth” that works
like a touch screen computer. You can deal with postcards and invitations and surf the net with
the touch of a finger. The invitations could be encoded（编码）. You can deal with them on the
computer. It's part of Microsoft's Smart Personal Objects Technology, whose aim is to make every
object more efficient（有效率的）.

“The day when your house becomes a member of your family is not far,” says Pam Heath, a
manager of Microsoft. At the Andersen Windows Company, Jay Libby imagines that windows
made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs.

“Nobody wants a television set,” says Libby. “What you want is the service it provides.” If the
TV isn't improved, it will disappear in the future.

Home entertainment is one consideration for the future. At the Georgia Institute of
Technology in Atlanta, scientists are designing systems that will allow old people to live better on
their own. So Grandma's home can be cleverly designed to recognize（识别） her ways of
waking, sleeping and movement. Family members will be told any change by their computers.

（1）We can know from the passage that Grace _________.


A. is an idea known as the Microsoft Home B. is a machine that works like a TV

（2）According to the passage, all the following are true EXCEPT________.


A. Grace can help you in the kitchen

B. you can use the computer with a touch screen

B. your windows will be changed into TVs

C. few people will like watching TV in the future

D. all the old people will live without others’ help

（4）Which would be the best title for the text?


A. Modern Home B. Popular Home C. Future Home D. Smart Home

【答案】 （1）C

（2）C

（3）A

（4）D

【解析】【分析】你走进厨房，Grace会告诉你相关的留言，你 看见面粉，Grace会给你提
供面食的菜单，你选择一个菜单，Grace会给你相关的配料，这些都 是智能家庭给我们带
来的便利，高效。在未来智能家庭还会提供更多更便利的科技，计算机正改变着我们 的生
活。


（1）推理判断。根据第一段的描述和第二段tells you your messages告诉你信息； makes a
menu of flour- based foods on the table制定面食菜单； gives you ingredie nts给你配料等，可
知Grace应该是一台家庭智能机器，它会看懂你做的事情，并提供必要的帮助 ，故选C。

（2）推理判断。根据第二段在厨房的活动可知A是对的；根据第二段 that works like a
touch screen computer和You can deal with them on the computer可知B是对的；根据第三
段 windows made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs用智能玻璃做成的Windows可以
变成电视，并没有要取代电视的意思，故C是错 误的；根据第四段 If the TV isn’t improved,
it will disappear in the future可知如果电视没有改进，它在将来会消失，故D也是对的。因
此选C。

（3）推理判断。根据最后一段Home entertainment is one consideration for the future和
scientists are designing systems that will allow old people to live better on their own可知科学家
们正努力使未来的建筑智能化。故选A。

（4）主旨大意。根据本 文举到的例子“智能厨房”可知，未来的家庭智能化必将是一种趋
势。故选D.智能家庭。

When Carson Palmer, a professional American football player, hurt his arm a few years ago, he
took a week off to stop throwing the football. But in his head, Palmer practiced every day. The
following weekend, Palmer had the best game of his life.

For more than a century, scientists have been trying to understand how this mental training
works. In the 1930s, researchers proved by experiment that when you're imagining an action,
your brain sends signals to your muscles which are too weak to tighten the muscles but might
help train the body to perform. In other words, mental practice might create a plan in your head,
like a how-to guide for a special skill.

Sports researchers have done hundreds of studies comparing imagined and physical practice
for actions. In short, the studies show that mental training works. A 2012 study compared 32
nonprofessional golfers with another 32 who only imagined their action. Under the same training
program, both groups improved their skills.

Imagination has advantages over the real thing: You can do it anywhere and any time. It is safe-
--a main advantage for people such as gymnasts and doctors. And you can practice for longer
periods of time because you're not controlled by physical tiredness. That's not to say it's easy.
had Olympic-level sportsmen sitting in our laboratory, imagining for two hours,says
Tadhg Macintyre, a sports researcher in Ireland.

It doesn't work for everyone, though. you're a beginner, the influence can be harmful,
warns Macintyre. If you're trying to imagine a free throw, and you don't even know the proper
movement, then you're probably going to mentally practice the wrong skill, and your skill is going
to be impaired.

（1）How does mental training act on one's physical practice?

A. Taking a week off from being tired.

B. Performing the action before imagining.

C. Using imagination to guide one's body.

D. Buying a how-to guide before mental training

（2）What do we know about imagination training?

A. It is not influenced by time and space.

B. It is easier to do than real practice.

C. It is more useful for golfers.

D. It is fit for everyone.

（3）What does the underlined word

A. weakened B. mastered C. tested D. improved

（4）What can be the best title of the text?

A. A New Way of Doing Sports

Many scientists find that colors can change people's feelings. It's very interesting. Some colors
can make people feel relaxed, and some colors can make people feel nervous. Now, this kind of
knowledge is being used in many places. For example, school walls are always painted green
because green makes students feel relaxed. It is also good for the students' eyes. Some books are
also green or light blue for the same reason. Restaurant owners not only have to know how to
make food, but also have to know how to make money. Here are some things they've learned
from scientific studies. The color red makes people hungry. Many fast food restaurants have red
furniture or walls. Soft colors like pink and light blue make people feel relaxed, so they spend
more time eating. Loud music may be nice at first, but it soon makes people want to leave. Hard

Swimming and English Learning Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you
learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn
to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with
the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.

Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking
countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English
programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed, try to
catch every word.

Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You
know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don't be afraid. We must be brave.
If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows
English. Whether you know him or not is not important. When there's nobody to talk with, you
can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English.
Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.

Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the
books we're interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most
important.

Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to
English magazines. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.

Easier said than done. Well, let's do more practice from now on. I'm sure you'll learn English
well in this way.

（1）You can learn to swim by ______.

A. reading books about it B. looking at others swimming

C. having lessons on it D. going into the river and learning

（2）We should learn English by ______.

A. listening and speaking B. reading and writing C. A and B D. swimming

（3）What will you do with mistakes when you speak?

A. Don't make mistakes. B. Study hard. C. Try not to speak English. D. Don't be afraid.

【答案】 （1）D

（2）C

（3）D

【解析】【分析】本文介绍了几个如何学好英语的几个方法。

（1）细节题。根据 I think the best way is to go into the water and learn 可知学游泳最好的办
法是下水学习 ，故选D。
