A
If you’re looking to buy a gift for your children, why not keep up with the trend and get the best hoverboard?
What is a Hoverboard?
A hoverboard is a two-wheeled personal transportation device. It’s electrical, portable and became highly popular in 2015 in reference to a popular 1980’s movie. Typically, this self-balancing device operates like a powered skateboard.
How Does a Hoverboard Work?
The device may have many designs, but the mechanism itself isn’t complicated. Basically, a
standard hoverboard contains:
Battery: stores the electrical power. Almost all hoverboards use a high-watt lithium-ion battery.
Gyroscope (one for each wheel): allows riders to tilt ( 倾 斜 ) the hoverboard while maintaining balance and adjusting their direction.
Motor (one in each wheel): provides the power to the wheels to keep the rider balanced and upright.
Logic board: functions as the hoverboard brain. It processes data—your speed, tilt, etc.—and sends information to the motors. This unit controls the power of the board so riders can adjust their speed.
All the above components work together to control the power and tilt of the hoverboards so the rider is balanced, upright and moving at a controlled speed.
Why Buy a Hoverboard?
Undoubtedly, hoverboards are cool. You’ve probably seen kids riding one around the house. They’re a phenomenon and everybody wants in. So, why deny your kids and prevent them from being part of this trend?
Where is a hoverboard legal?
Despite their wild popularity, hoverboards have yet to become “street-legal”. Currently, some places prohibit anyone under 16 from using these devices, and hoverboards are banned in academic institutions and public places, like campus buildings, parks, shopping malls and subway stations. Some places have also put speed limits on the devices and restricted their use to bike paths. However, open areas—including your yard—are free of these restrictions.
21. The logic board of a hoverboard can___________.
A.store electricity
B. power the wheels
C. send information to the riders
D. receive data and give command
22. According to the passage, a hoverboard can be used______.
A.on campus B.in parks C.on bike paths D.in shopping malls
23. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To evaluate a gift’s quality. B. To recommend a gift choice.
C. To compare new hoverboard models. D. To clarify functions of the latest hoverboards.
B
At school, I was in the top set for maths. My teachers recommended that I study economics and statistics as my A-level subjects, but I had my mind set on a life fulfilled by the arts.
In fact, I was a victim of a gender stereotype made stronger since birth, that men do science and maths and women do arts or languages. Computer science, technology and physics just did not figure in my teenage world view. Nobody popular in my school chose to study those subjects.
Reality struck hard when I began attending job interviews and interviewers would say: “It’s great that you speak foreign languages, but what else do you do?” Nobody asked my friends who had studied science or technology those questions.
A survey recently showed that three of the best-paid jobs for women are in the technology sector. It’s a sector that really can change the world. We must show girls that technology has an effect on every industry out there, from fashion to architecture to journalism. Anybody can learn to code and these days it’s as important as reading and writing. I’ve realized that at university I’d achieved the wrong kind of literacy. Not being able to code limit your impact on the world far more than an ignorance of great literature.
Now I have a five-year-old daughter. I don’t want her to blindly follow gender roles the way I did. I want her to know the fact that a science or technical degree will not limit her creativity but expand it and broaden her horizons far more than my arts background could. I’m exposing her to Minecraft and apps, which help improve
analytical thinking and problem solving skills. I’m hoping that my daughter will discover and accept her potentials in science and want to change the world.
24. What does the underlined phrase “gender stereotype” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Personal learning style. B. Sex characteristic.
C. Conventional sex concept. D. Profession difference.
25. According to the author, which may be the benefit of learning science?
A. Increasing job possibility. B. Winning popularity.
C. Improving language competence. D. Enriching imagination.
26. How did the author feel for her major choice?
A. Satisfied. B. Active. C. Discouraged. D. Regretful.
27. What may be the best title for the text?
A. Art or Science, Either is OK B. Good Subjects, Good Future
C. Girls, Choose More Wisely D. Catch Chances, Change the World

“The first shipment of masks and coronavirus test kits to the US is taking off from Shanghai. All the best to our friends in America.”Jack Ma said on his first tweet.
Chinese billionaire Jack Ma, the co-founder of the online retail giant Alibaba, said he is donating 500,000 testing kits and 1 million masks to the United States to fight the spread of coronavirus. The China-made protective gear and test kits took off from Shanghai's airport in a chartered cargo plane Monday morning, and will be handed over to the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) when they arrive.
Up to now, the tweet has received more than 470,000 likes. Meanwhile, the American netizen also actively gave their replies in the comment area. “I feel like we are now a third world country but your kind is appreciated. Gratitude!” a netizen said.
The Jack Ma Foundation and Alibaba Foundation have donated much-needed materials to regions suffering in the epidemic over the past few weeks, including Japan, South Korea, Italy, Egypt, Iran and Spain, according to a tweet from the Jack Ma Foundation on Friday.
Ma said the outbreak presents "a huge challenge to all humankind in a globalized world," and that he has drawn from his own country's experience that quick and accurate testing as well as protective equipment for medical personnel are most effective in preventing the spread of the virus.
The past two months show us that if we take it very seriously and are proactive, we are more than capable of containing the virus.
Now it is as if we were all living in the same forest on fire. As members of the global community, it would be irresponsible of us to sit on the fence, panic, ignore facts or fail to act. We need to take action now!
28. According to the underlined sentence, what did the netizen really want to convey?
A. He felt that he was looked down on but still showed his gratitude to Jack Ma.
B. He thought that the US is the greatest country but still showed his gratitude to Jack Ma.
C. He laughed at the current condition of his country and showed his gratitude to Jack Ma.
A. He thought that the US was a third world country and showed his gratitude to Jack Ma.
28. What is the meaning of the underlined word “proactive” in Paragraph 6?
A. negative B. positive C. passive D. attractive
29. Drawing from China’s experience, which one below is not the most effective in preventing the spread
of the virus?
A. Quick testing. B. Protective equipment for medical personnel.
C.Correct testing. D. Correct labeling to the virus.
31. Which statement is not correct according to the text?
A. Jack Ma is one of the founders of the online retail giant Alibaba.
B. The protective equipment will be handed over to the CDC.
C. Jack Ma has just donated much-needed materials to the countries in Asia, America, and Europe .
D. If we take the virus seriously, we are more than capable of containing it.

In recent years, Boston Dynamics has become known for two things. One, creating robots whose movements mimic (模仿) humans and animals. Many find their accuracy surprising and concerning. The second reason is posting mysterious videos of these robots online without warning. The videos quickly go popular and spread a mixture of excitement and terror over the rapid rise of self-operating machines.
The company has made four-legged robots in recent years, with names like Spot, Wildcat and BigDog. These robots can do tasks such as open doors, carry heavy loads and run nearly 20 miles per hour. The company's most popular product appears to be Atlas, the robotic athlete. It calls Atlas "the world's most dynamic humanlike robot."
The robot is guided by 3-D vision. It also uses LiDAR, short for Light Detection And Ranging, a sensor (传感器) that uses a laser (激光) to measure the distance between objects. With this technology, the small robot can pull nearly 25 pounds. The company says Atlas can also handle objects in its environment, cross rough land, keep its balance when pushed and get back up when knocked down.
Three years ago, Atlas was recorded clumsily walking through the snow at a slow speed. Curiosity about Atlas increased last year when Boston Dynamics posted a video clip on YouTube. In it, the previously awkward robot goes for a jog in a grassy area. The video seemed to surprise many viewers, including the newspaper called the Daily Mail. The newspaper was reporting on Atlas's physical accomplishment at the time.
The paper wrote, "If you thought you'd be able to run away from the terrifying new robots, bad news."
32. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Robots mimicking humans and animals go popular.
B. Boston Dynamic is likely to create more new robots.
C. Humanlike robots are developing at a surprising speed.
D. A new video of the latest robots make people amused.
33. What does the underlined word “awkward” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Dangerous. B. Unskillful. C. Graceful. D. Convenient.
34. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. It’s bad that we can run away from the new robots.
B. People are happy about the improvements to new robots.
C. Human’s power over machines and robots has come to an end.
D. Improvements to robots raised concern among us human.
35. Where does the text probably come from?
A. A science magazine. B. An advertisement.
C. Children’s literature. D. A fantasy novel.

Practical ways to get motivated
Be mindful of your "why".
If I need to clean the floor, but I really don’t like cleaning, then I won’t feel very motivated to do it. However, if I have a big enough reason to do it — because I’m having some guests to come over, or I love the feeling of having a clean floor, then that "bigger purpose" can be strong enough to get me to act, even though I don’t enjoy cleaning. If I stay mindful of why I’m doing it, I can get motivated to do it. 36_______
Celebrate your successes.
It’s easy to get down on yourself because you haven’t reached your goal yet. You may overlook all of the hard work and small goals that you’ve accomplished. Remember to reward yourself and to celebrate your successes.37_______In the same way, how can you motivate yourself if you’re not going to reward yourself and celebrate your successes?

What does it feel like?39_______Focus on that feeling, and use it to drive you right now to move towards your goal. Just think of how good it will be.
Get inspired.
Read stories, watch movies, listen to other people who have achieved what you want to achieve. Imagine what they had to go through to get to where they are. Imagine how big the heart is of some of your biggest heroes and how badly they wanted what they achieved.40_______.

Many years ago I was on a bicycle trip through the beautiful countryside. Suddenly, dark clouds 41 overhead and rain began to fall, but several hundred
yards 42 the sun shone brilliantly. Riding, 43 , as rapidly as I could, I found it 44 to get into the clear. The clouds with their rain kept advancing faster than I could race forward.

It has become ever 58 to me that danger is far from disaster, that temporary defeat may come as a sign of final 59 and that, in the last analysis, all achievement is beyond your 60 unless you are willing to go through various challenges and difficulties in life.

Dear Steve,
I’m happy to hear from you. In your mail you asked about how I study in the situation of the ongoing novel coronavirus outbreak. Now I’m writing to tell you about it.
In order to control the spread of the novel coronavirus,our school, just like other schools nationwide, has delayed the opening of the spring semester. But school suspension doesn’t stop studying. Our school is conducting online courses, such as Chinese, Maths, English and so on. All my classmates study at home over the Internet nowadays. Though studying online is interesting, I hope I can go back to school and meet my classmates and teachers as soon as possible.
Looking forward to hearing from you again.
Yours,
Li Hua
