21、A ground-based system that uses much stronger signals than GPS can find your location in cities and indoors. It is a new positioning system that could compete with GPS to make sure you never lose your directions again.

Instead of satellites, Locata uses ground-based equipment to launch a radio signal over a localized area that is a million times stronger on arrival than GPS. It can work indoors as well as outdoors, and the makers claim the receivers can be shrunk to fit inside a regular cell phone. Even the US military, which invented GPS technology, signed a contract last month agreeing to a large-scale test of Locata at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

“This is one of the most important technology developments for the future of the positioning industry,” says Nunzio Gambale, CEO and co-founder of the firm Locata, based in Griffith, Australia.

As for the Locata’s accuracy, Christopher Morin of the US Air Force tested it recently at White Sands, and it worked to within 18 centimeters along any axis(轴). Morin says it should be possible to get the resolution down to 5 centimeters.

Admittedly, the tests were performed in an open desert where GPS also works beautifully, but its signals are weak— like a car headlight from 20,000 kilometers away— and easily blocked by solid objects. “Locata’s signal is far stronger, though not guaranteed to work in a complex urban environment,” says David Last, consultant to the UK’s General Lighthouse Authorities.

“Locata’s technology will face competition in the race to transform indoor navigation. But it could shine in specific areas,” Gambale says. “Robots with Locata could easily navigate inside buildings without the complex optical systems they need at the moment. And process that handle precise location data could not only guide you around a mall, railway station or airport, but also take you to the exact shelf in a shop for the product you want. The units small and cheap enough for smart phones should be available within five years— a similar path to the one GPS took on its way towards world domination.”

【1】The passage is written mainly to   .

A. encourage people to buy the Locata

B. tell us the disadvantage of the GPS

C. introduce a new positioning system Locata

D. tell us that Locata will replace GPS one day

【2】Which of the following is not true about Locata according to Paragraph 2?

A. Without the help of the satellites, Locata can tell you where you are.

B. The US military has to test it before using it.

C. Locata has a better signal than GPS.

D. Locata can be fixed into smart phones only.

【3】Which of the following words can be used to replace the underlined word in Paragraph 4?

A. accuracy   B. speed

C. determination   D. length

【4】According to the passage, what can we know about Gambale?

A. He did the experiment at White Sands.

B. He is confident in Locata and think highly of it.

C. He said that Locata could not work in a complex urban environment.

D. He is worried about the competition that Locata faces.

22、Reading is a complex and crucial skill that impacts the youth’s ability to perform as students. Therefore, it’s important to develop reading skills during childhood. A team of researchers focused on the effect of whole-body learning in instruction, known as embodied learning.

The research included 149 children, aged 5 to 6, who had just started school. They were divided into three groups: one that stood up and used their whole bodies to shape letter sounds; a seated group that shaped letter sounds with their hands and arms; and a control group that received traditional, seated instruction during which they wrote letters by hand.

“Our research showed that children who used their whole bodies to shape the sounds of letters became twice as proficient (熟练的) at letter sounds that are more difficult to learn as those who received traditional instruction,” says PhD student Linn Damsgaard of UCPH’s Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports.

With regard to difficult letter sounds, she adds, “There are many difficult letter sounds in Danish. These sounds are particularly important because once children become proficient at them, they will be better readers.”

Associate professor Jacob Wienecke, who led the study, explains, “The primary goal is to learn more about which methods can be used to give beginner readers a good start. The idea is that if, through play and movement, we can learn where their strengths truly lie, we’ll create a form of learning that combines reading with play, and that’s truly positive.”

Previously, the researchers showed that the children felt more motivated by teaching methods which included physical movement. Jacob Wienecke hopes this will provide an opportunity to inspire teachers and school managers to prioritize movement across subjects.

The study also investigated whether a direct effect of embodied learning could be found on children’s reading of individual words. This was not possible, which might be due to the fact that the children were at such an early stage of their literacy development that they could not yet use their knowledge of letter sounds to read words.

【1】What were the participants required to do in the study?

A．To pick out difficult letter sounds in Danish.

B．To learn new letters through repeated writing.

C．To learn letter sounds using different approaches.

D．To memorize some letter sounds as soon as possible.

【2】How can embodied learning get children actively involved?

A．By combining learning with games.

B．By offering them chances to cooperate.

C．By inspiring them to overcome difficulties.

D．By explaining instructions to them patiently.

【3】What does Jacob expect of the research finding?

A．Promoting harmonious teacher-student relationships.

B．Urging schools to pay attention to physical exercise.

C．Enabling researchers to carry out further studies.

D．Encouraging educators to apply it to teaching.

【4】What does the last paragraph intend to tell us?

A．Children prefer learning step by step.

B．Children are too little to use their knowledge smartly

C．Children lack enough practice to get fully improved.

D．Children’s learning still relies on adults’ instruction.

【5】What could be the best title for the text?

A．Whole-body learning — a good start to children’s reading

B．Embodied learning — a booster for children’s reading speed

C．Children’s reading skills matter a lot in their literacy development

D．Children’s literacy development depends on the flexibility of their bodies

23、   My wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago and we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like the way it does today. We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.

We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area. We would do all of the yard work on our own, even the tiring weed-pulling.

Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify, I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn’t either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower with a tall skinny stalk（茎，杆）and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.

That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same nourishment（营养）and growth as well.

Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle in order to reach your desires.

【1】We can know from the first paragraph that ______.

A. the author finished building his home hurriedly

B. the author’s family have lived in this home for nine years

C. the author’s home is made of rock walls

D. there is a wall along the sidewalk

【2】The author found it unusual that ______.

A. the mystery plant turned out to be a Sunflower

B. the Sunflower had a tall stalk and only one head

C. the Sunflower grew under and around a big rock

D. the Sunflower had started where the stalk was seen

【3】Which of the following best describes the Sunflower?

A. Brave and stubborn   B. Confident and persistent

C. Optimistic and modest   D. Mysterious and devoted

【4】What can be inferred from this passage?

A. Human beings are able to remove obstacles

B. The universal truth made the sunflower survive

C. A big rock blocked out the sunlight of the sunflower

D. We can achieve success as long as we are self-confident

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

The Rude Boy

James Selton was one of the rudest boys in the village where he lived. If a person in the street was well dressed, he would cry out, “Dandy(花花公子)!” If a person’s clothes were dirty or torn, he would throw stones at him, and annoy him in every way.

One afternoon, just as the school was dismissed, a stranger passed through the village. His dress was plain and somewhat old, but neat and clean. He carried a cane(手杖) in his hand, on the end of which was a bag and he wore a broad-brimmed(宽边的) hat.

No sooner had James seen the stranger than he winked to his playmates, and said, “Now for some fun!” He then silently went toward the stranger from behind, and, knocking off his hat, ran away.

The man turned and saw him, but James was out of hearing before he could speak. The stranger put on his hat, and went on his way. Again did James approach, but this time, the man caught him by the arm, and held him tightly. However, he contented himself with looking at James a moment in the face, and then pushed him from him. No sooner had the naughty boy found himself free again than he began to pelt(连读投掷) the stranger with dirt and stones.

But James was very frightened when the man was struck on the head by a brick, and badly hurt. All the boys ran away, and James skulked(偷偷摸摸走动) across the fields to his home.

As he drew near his house, his sister Caroline came out to meet him, holding up a beautiful gold chain and some new books for him to see. She told James, as fast as she could talk, that their uncle, who had been away several years, had come home, and was now in the house; that he had brought beautiful presents for the whole family; that he had left his carriage at the tavern(客栈),a mile or two off, and walked on foot, so as to surprise his brother, their father.
