【題目】

What will the home of the future look like? A team of architects in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as populations continue to grow and space becomes more expensive.

They have designed “spaceflats” that are only 30 square metres in size. These flats have small rooms: a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony(陽(yáng)臺(tái)), but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space.

The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. And, if not needed, both the sofa-bed and the table can be folded away(折疊收攏). There is a flat-screen TV, which can also serve as a computer monitor. You can’t see the cooker, the microwave and the small refrigerator because they are all hidden out of sight.

The other rooms are small but practical(實(shí)用的). The bathroom contains a toilet and shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary. The balcony has enough space for two people to sit and you may see an amazing fountain on it. All the rooms have high ceiling to provide as much storage(存儲(chǔ))space as possible, while the flat has large windows to let in plenty of sunlight.

“Spaceflats” are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. “It’s wonderful,” said one citizen, “The flat is so well designed that you feel that there is plenty of space.”

【解析】

本文介紹了未來(lái)城市住宅的樣子,面積雖然不大,但是功能齊全。

1根據(jù)第一段中“A team of architects in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny”可知,香港的一個(gè)建筑師團(tuán)隊(duì)說(shuō),城市住宅將會(huì)很小,所以此處是肯定回答。故填Yes, they will.

2根據(jù)第三段中“It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom.”可知,客廳可以用作辦公室,廚房,甚至是第二個(gè)臥室。故填It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom.

3根據(jù)第三段中“You can’t see the cooker, the microwave and the small refrigerator because they are all hidden out of sight”可知,你看不到炊具、微波爐和小冰箱,因?yàn)樗鼈兌疾卦谝暰之外,所以一共有3樣?xùn)|西藏在視線之外。故填Three/3.

4根據(jù)第四段中“The balcony has enough space for two people to sit and you may see an amazing fountain on it.”可知,陽(yáng)臺(tái)有足夠的空間讓兩個(gè)人坐下,你可以在上面看到一個(gè)令人驚嘆的噴泉,所以在陽(yáng)臺(tái)上可以欣賞到美景。故填On the balcony.

5根據(jù)第四段中“All the rooms have high ceiling to provide as much storage(存儲(chǔ))space as possible, while the flat has large windows to let in plenty of sunlight. ”可知,所有的房間都有高高的天花板,以提供盡可能多的存儲(chǔ)空間,而公寓有大窗戶可以讓充足的陽(yáng)光進(jìn)入,所以公寓里是有充足陽(yáng)光的,此處用肯定回答。故填Yes, there is.

6本題為開放性題目,答案言之有理即可。題目為一般疑問(wèn)句,用yesno回答,并陳述自己的理由。故填:Yes, I’d like to. Because I can enjoy the sunlight in spaceflat.

【題目】Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.

A local primary school is considering using tablet computers(平板電腦)in all classrooms from next year. The following text has been written by a teacher at the school.

Should we use tablet computers in the classroom?

The use of tablet computersor simply“tablets”in the classroom has become an increasingly popular choice in many primary schools across the country, including many in our local area. It is important that we consider this opportunity, but we must also be a 1 of the problems.

On one hand, there are many a2to use tablets in the classroom.

Firstly, tablets could improve productivity during the school day. Because of their familiarity with computers and mobile phones, many of our students can type faster than they can write by hand. T3 , using tablets in the classroom could reduce the time it takes for them to complete tasks. Additionally, there are endless tablet functions(功能)which could provide interesting teaching a4. For example, we could play computer games to teach Maths, or make simple flashes to show how magnets behave. Also, students could take photos outdoors and then use them for writing tasks.

However, we must also consider the possible problems with introducing tablets to our classrooms. Some students may play with the tablets instead of f 5 on their work. Another problem is that, while many students can use tablets already, many of our teachers are not good at it and would need to be trained. We may also have problems with the tablets breaking, which would be very expensive to r6 . This is in addition to the cost of buying the tablets in the first place.

All in all, even though using tablets in the classroom may have many problems, it seems that it would be a wonderful opportunity for students and teachers at our school. There are a lot of costs indeed, but it would c7prove to be a worthwhile investment(物有所值的投資).

【題目】請(qǐng)閱讀下面圖文內(nèi)容,按要求完成所給任務(wù),并將答案寫在答題卷相應(yīng)的位置上。

What should you do if there’s an earthquake at school? How can you protect yourself when you are caught in a stampede(踩踏)? 三月二十五日給了我們一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)安全的好機(jī)會(huì)。

This day is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and middle School students(全國(guó)中小學(xué)生安全教育日). The purpose of the day is to give us more knowledge about safety.

Staying calm is the first and most important rule when facing accidents, but different accidents have different self-protection tips.

A stampede is possible anywhere. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hand. Lean to one side, curl up (卷起) your body and bend (彎曲) your legs.

Earthquakes are common. When you feel the ground shake, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. If you are outdoors, find a place away from buildings, trees, and power lines.

When there’s a fire, follow the teachers’ instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of cloth to cover your moth and nos.

Sports injuries (傷害) may happen while doing sports. Before playing sports,·you should warm up for 15 to 30 minutes.

What do other countries do to keep students safe?

Japan Earthquake Drills (演習(xí))

At public schools in Japan, earthquake drills are held once a month. They teach students safety tips during an earthquake. Regular training helps students escape from earthquake-stricken areas without causing any stampedes.

Australia First-aid (急救) Courses

Most students in Australia take first -aid courses at school. They learn basic first-aid knowledge in the class, such as how to call an ambulance (救護(hù)車) and what to do when someone is hurt. The government is trying to make all kids take such courses.

US The Fire Escape

Most US school buildings have fire escapes (火災(zāi)逃生口). A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders at each floor of a building. Thery are usually made of steel and built outside the building. People can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window. It is not a good idea to jump out of window from higher than two floors. It may hurt yourself.
