FUTURE VIEW

It will be great if there is some kind of fuel(燃料)we can use in cars that won’t produce any pollution. I guess there are scientists right now trying to do that, and I hope they’ll succeed because the world would be a much cleaner place, wouldn’t it?

Charlie

I think it will be great if they invent something so that we only have to sleep for one or two hours every day. Then we’d all have much more time to do things and to enjoy ourselves. Life would be better, I think, and everyone would do a lot more with their lives.

Miguel

If I could choose anything, I’d go for a time machine so that I could go back and do some things differently. Of course, It will be great if there that’s impossible— but wouldn't it be great if it was possible? I wish I could go back in time to when I was a kid and say some of the things in a different way!

Hannah

Well, of course, the best thing is medicine for rally bad diseases(疾。.A lot of scientists are working very hard to stop diseases like Ebola, a terrible disease that has killed many thousand people in Africa. So if they found a special treatment for Ebola, or a way of completely preventing it, life would be easier in so many places.

Isabella

I wish there was a machine that did homework! Wouldn’t tat be fantastic? But I guess teachers wouldn’t be very happy.

3

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中“I think it will be great if they invent something so that we only have to sleep for one or two hours every day.”、“If I could choose anything, I’d go for a time machine so that I could go back and do some things differently.”、“A lot of scientists are working very hard to stop diseases like Ebola, a terrible disease that has killed many thousand people in Africa.”、“It will be great if there is some kind of fuel(燃料)we can use in cars that won’t produce any pollution.”、“I wish there was a machine that did homework!”可知,文中內(nèi)容主要涉及發(fā)明、時間機器、科學(xué)家正努力阻止疾病和新型無污染燃料,這些都與科技有關(guān),所以該文章會在報紙的科技部分出現(xiàn)。故選B。

【題目】

Every night, just after the sun goes down. Ruth Medjber talks with her neighbours in Dublin, Ireland, and takes a picture of them at their windows.

These photos, in some way, show people's lives during the global pandemic (大流行病).

"I started out taking photos of just friends and family. In this way, I could connect with them during this special time when people have to stay at home," the photographer explained. "I live alone, so I was missing the days when we were free to communicate with friends. Every evening, on my way to seeing friends, I had a sense of purpose."

Now she's making new friends.

The photo project has taken off online, and she has opened it up to volunteers. But they must be the people who live within 5 kilometers of her home—the Irish government doesn't allow people to go farther out than that.

"I pick a street each night and try to take photos of volunteers," Ruth said. "I usually take about four photos before it is completely dark, but two if I'm talking a lot—which I love to do."

She said more and more neighbours are joining in her photo project and it has now got a name, Low at Home.

"I think people like knowing that they're not alone even if they have to stay at home, and they really try to pick out those who are similar to themselves in the photos," she said. "It's also a different view(視角) of the pandemic: the more human view. Instead of showing what the pandemic has taken from us, it shows that it has given us more chances to be with family and friends and spend time together."

"I think we'd love most to find something nice, even in the most serious situation as it is now," Ruth said.

1Ruth started out taking the photos in order to____________.

A.raise some moneyB.connect with friends and family

C.make new friendsD.join in a photo project of volunteers

2According to the passage, Low at Home is the name of ____________.

A.a photo projectB.the picture shown in this passage

A.the beauty of streets in a city of Ireland

B.how people do things when staying at home

C.the moment of family and friends being together

D.what the global pandemic has taken from people

4From the passage we can infer(推斷)that Ruth is a _____________ person.

A.carefulB.shyC.hardworkingD.loving
