High-technology around usAI-MATHS，an artificial intelligence robot，took this year's national college exam known as gaokao，which has aroused much public concern on the rapid development of high-technology．（高分句型一）Undoubtedly，advanced science and technology has found its way into our everyday life．For instance，in some special work environment，artificial intelligence helps humans to get some work done，like dangerous work，work of high labor intensity，etc．（高分句型二） Not only can it reduce the burden of work，but also tends to be more efficient and time-saving．In addition，it is AI that brings our life unprecedented convenience and comfort．Even separated by thousands of miles，we can still easily communicate via high-tech．What's more，high-tech contributes a lot to further exploring our space．However，it is also a double-edged sword．While we enjoy its convenience，the problem of privacy and safety it has caused can't be overlooked．（高分句型三）Besides，it is likely to lead to certain unemployment with an increasing number of artificial intelligence robots replacing humans in some fields．
Through the above analysis，we'd better take high-tech reasonably and employ it according to the circumstances we are in．（高分句型四）Only in this way can we make the best use of it．．

8．My husband and I enjoy seeing life through the eyes of our five children．It is amazing to watch them discover their （36）C．
One day last summer，our oldest daughter，Kaytlin found a（n）（37）B red squirrel beneath the steps．

7．Exchange a glance with someone，and then look away．Do you realize that you have made a statement？Hold the glance for a second longer and you have made a different situation，there is a permissible time that you can hold a person's stare without being unfriendly，rude，or aggressive．If you are on a lift，what stare-time are you permitted？To answer this question，consider what you typically do．You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no harm．Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction，you need to send out a signal telling others you want to be left alone．So you cut off eye contact-what sociologist Erving Goffiman calls"a dimming（变暗） of the lights"．You look down at the floor，at the indicator（指示） lights，anywhere but into another passenger's eyes．Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on a lift，you will make the other person extremely uncomfortable，and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself．
If you hold eye contact for more than 3seconds，what are you telling another person？Much depends on the person and the situation．For instance，a man and a woman communicate interest in this manner．They stare at each other for about 3seconds at a time，and then drop their eyes down for 3seconds，before letting their eyes meet again．But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare，he signals，"I know you"，"I am interested in you"or"You look peculiar（奇怪） and I am curious about you"．This type of stare often produces hostile（敌意的） feelings．

33．If one is looked at by a stranger for too long，he tends to feelB．
A．depressed                
B．uneasy
C．curious                  
D．amused
34．If you want to be left alone on a lift，the best thing to do isB．
A．to look into another passenger's eyes
B．to avoid eye contact with other passengers
C．to signal you don't mean to do harm to anyone
D．to keep a distance from other passengers
35．It can be inferred from the first paragraph thatA．
A．every glance has its significance
B．staring at a person is an expression of interest
C．a stare longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable
D．a glance conveys more meaning than words．

6．Habits，whether good or bad，are gradually formed．When a person does a certain thing again，he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly，then a habit is formed．Once a habit is formed，it is difficult，and sometimes impossible，to get rid of．It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits．Children often form bad habits，some of which remain with them as long as they live．Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live，and sometimes become ruined by them．
There are other habits which，when formed in early life，are of great help．Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life，such as early rising，honesty and so on．
Among the habits which children should not form are laziness，lying，stealing and so on．These are all easily formed habits．Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided．
We should keep away from（远离） all these bad habits，and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others．

5．C are formed little by littl．
A．Good habits
B．Bad habits
C．Both good habits and bad habits
D．Either good habits or bad habits
6．The underlined word"them"in the first paragraph refers toA．
A．bad habits     B．good habits     C．children     D．other persons
7．Generally speaking，it's difficult for oneB and not easy for themB which should be avoided．
A．to form bad habits； to form good habits
B．to form good habits； to get rid of  bad habits
C．to form such habits as will be good； to get rid of good habits
D．to get rid of bad habits； to form good habits
8．Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits？C
A．Because habits are of great help to every one of us．
B．Because a man can never get rid of a habit．
C．Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits．
D．Because we are forced to do them again and again．

5．现在我们国家越来越重视体育，尤其中小学学校，加强了对体育课要求．请就这一现象写一篇关于在中小学生中开展体育课的重要性．

As the proverb goes，"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy．"From this，we know that health is very important to everybody，especially to teenagers．But how to keep fit？As far as I'm concerned，I think doing physical exercises has lots of advantages．（高分句型一）
First of all，doing exercises in the morning will build up my body as well as gives me a good appetite to eat my breakfast．（高分句型二）What's more，the air in the morning is really fresh and clean，so I can keep my mind active in class．By doing physical exercises every day I can keep my mind clear that I can finish my homework in time．（高分句型三）If I do not do any physical exercise，I will feel tired．During the night，I may find it harder to fall asleep．Second，doing exercises every day will help me to develop a better personality．It takes time and patience to do exercises．Doing physical exercises makes me stronger and healthier．That's my personal experience．
As a student，sports are important．You can pick up your favorite sport and do it every day．Only in this way can you have both pleasure and a healthy body．．

1．Sometimes the toughest thing about feelings is sharing them with others．Sharing your feelings helps you whether your feelings are wonderful or terrible．Sharing also helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you．But how？
You can't tell your friends what's inside your backpack if you don't know what's in there yourself．Feelings are the same way．Before you can share them with anyone，you have to figure out what feelings you have．
Making a list of your feelings can help．You can do this in your mind or by writing it out or even by drawing pictures．Is something bothering you？Does it make you frustrated or terrified？Do you feel this emotion only once in a while or much of the time？
The way a person feels inside is important．If you keep feelings locked inside，it can even make you feel sick!But if you talk with someone who cares for you，you will almost always start to feel better．It doesn't mean your problems and worries magically disappear，but at least someone else knows what's bothering you and can help you find solutions．
Your mom and dad want to know if you have problems and what's happening in your life．But what if a kid doesn't want to talk with parents？Then find another trusted adult，like a relative or a teacher at schoo1．Maybe this person can help you talk with your parents about your problem or concern．
Once you know who you can talk with，you'll want to pick a time and place to talk．You can talk publicly in your family．But some kids are more private than others and they will feel shy about sharing their feelings．Then find a quiet place or write it down on a piece of paper．A kid doesn't have to share every feeling he or she has．

32．What does the passage mainly tell us？C
A．The importance of feelings．
B．How to figure out your feelings．
C．How to share your feelings．
D．The people sharing your feelings．
33．What can we learn from Paragraph 2？B
A．Kids can't tell their friends about their backpack．
B．Kids should know about themselves first before sharing．
C．Kids need to find out what others think of them first．
D．Kids'feelings are the same in a way．
34．What might happen after sharing your feelings with others？D
A．You'11recover from your illness．
B．Your worries will magically disappear．
C．You'11like more private talks．
D．You will feel relieved．
35．Where is this passage probably taken from？C
A．A science fiction．
B．A parents'brochure．
C．A children's magazine．
D．A notice board．

20．假如你是李华．你的美国朋友 Lucy 因家庭经济困难准备辍学．请你根据以下 提示要点，给她写封信，劝她继续上学．
1．学习的重要性；2．如何面对目前的困难．
注意：1．词数 100 左右；2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3．信的开头和 结尾已经给出，但不计入总词数．
Dear Lucy，
I am sorry to hear that you have decided to drop out of school（辍学）．
I am writing to persuade you not to do that and hope you can continue your studies．（高分句型一）The reasons are as follows．
First of all，as a student，our studies must come first．To receive education at school at present will have a long-lasting influence on our future．Second，all of us will meet with difficulties in our lives and thus we must accept the challenges and try to overcome them．（高分句型二）Third，there are many ways to help you get through the present difficult situation．For example，you can apply for student loans or take part-time jobs．
There is no doubt that I will try my best to help you．（高分句型三）In short，I do hope you can take my suggestion into consideration and make a final decision．
Looking forward to your reply．
Yours，
Li Hua．
