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.
1. 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
2. According to the passage, a hoverboard can be used___.
A. on campus
B. in parks
C. on bike paths
D.in shopping malls
3. 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.

LAS VEGAS-It was different in the light of day. There was no 'pop,pop,pop' of gunfire, no screams. Just a quiet lot of cars abandoned by those,like Kassidy Owen,who escaped with their lives.
"It's strange to hear the silence," Owen said, "because all I remember was the noise."
The 22-year-old was one of dozens of concertgoers who returned to the scene of the Route 91 Harvest festival on Wednesday morning to fetch the vehicles they left behind as
they fled from a gunman raining down bullets from high above in the tower of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino across the street.
Survivors of the deadly mass shooting in Las Vegas on Sunday needed their cars to move on with their lives-to get back to work, to school, home. It was the first time they were returning to a scene that would forever change them, when joy and celebration and music turned into killing and horror.
Before they could move forward, they had to go back to the place where they thought they were going to die.
Owen had run to her car to hide and had tried to drive away, but she couldn't. People were running, bodies dropped to the ground, and cars bottlenecked in the parking lot. During a brief pause after more than 10 minutes of gunfire, she worried the lights of her SUV made everyone inside a shining target.
“They're shooting again!" her best friend's brother screamed. "Turn off the car!"
That's when she got out and fled.
“I just remember shutting the door and running.” Owen said.
Now, nearly three days later, she was back, sitting in the driver's seat of her SUV. Her eyes were swollen and red. This was a long way from over.
"You just keep hearing the gunshots in your head" Owen said.
4. Why did Kassidy Owen return to the scene of terror?
A. To get back her car for daily life. B. To show sympathy to the victims.
C. To search for her missing friends. D. To look into the cause of the shooting.
5. Where was the gunman when the mass shooting happened?
A. Behind a car. B. In the parking lot.
C. On the stage. D. In a tall building.
6. Why did Owen keep hearing the gunshots in her head?
A. Because she had escaped being caught. B. Because she wanted to find the gunman.
10
C. Because she couldn't rid herself of those terrible scenes. D. Because she had saved other's lives by turning off the car.
7. Where is the text probably taken from?
A. A story book. B. A newspaper.
C. A guide book. D. A research report.
解答:
4. 【答案】A
【解析】细节题。
根据文章第五段第一句Survivors of the deadly mass shooting in Las Vegas on Sunday needed their cars to move on with their lives-to get back to work,to school,home可知,拉斯维加斯恐怖枪杀案中的幸存者们都不得不回到出事现场,把车开去工作,上学或是回家。故A项符合文意。

根据文章第三段"It's strange to hear the silence,"Owen said,"because all I remember was the noise."和倒数第二段第二、三句Her eyes were swollen and red.This was a long way from over可知,Owen 无法摆脱拉斯维加斯恐怖枪杀案发生时那些可怕的场景,她还需要很长时间去平复这段经历带来的心灵创伤。C项,“因为她不能让自己摆脱那些可怕的场景”,符合题意。
故正确答案为C。
7. 【答案】B

A group of blue-faced birds step through the grass shoulder to shoulder, red eyes looking around. They look like middle schoolers seeking a cafeteria table at lunchtime. Perhaps they're not so different.
A new study, led by Damien Farine, an ornithologist who studies collective behaviors, shows that the vulturine guineafowl of eastern Africa, like humans, have multilevel societies. In the past, scientists assumed such social structures required a lot of brainpower. But the pea-brained guineafowl are revealing the faults in that assumption.
These large birds wander across the landscape in packs, often walking so closely that their bodies touch. They may fight each other to maintain their strict hierarchies (等级制度), but at other times they engage in friendly behaviors like sharing food.
Suspecting the guineafowl might have a social structure, Dr. Farine and his colleagues began a thorough study of their society. For a whole year, they made daily observations of 441 birds. Colored leg bands in unique combinations let researchers
10
tell the black-and-blue birds apart. They also attached GPS devices to the backs of 58 birds, which let them see exactly where every group went, 24 hours a day.
The findings of the research suggest that the vulturine guineafowl have a multilevel society. There are groups within groups within the population as a whole. There even seem to be groups of friends within the small groups. This is the first time anyone has observed such a society in a bird.
And Dr. Farine emphasizes this particular bird's tiny brain size: "They don't only have small brains relative to mammals (哺乳动物), they also have quite small brains relative to other birds," he said.
According to him, living in this kind of society might actually make it easier to keep track of the social order. For example, if groups are stable and a bird can identify just one or two individuals within a group, it knows which group it's looking at-no need for a brain that can recognize every single animal. Multilevel societies also let animals adjust their group sizes based on whatever challenges they're facing. Depending on what enemies or resources are around, it might make sense to travel in a combined group rather than a smaller one.
"Having a multilevel structure may not require having a large brain," Dr. Farine said. There may be more birds and other animals out there that, although small-brained, have societies as many-leveled as our own.
8. According to the passage, what inspired Dr. Farine to carry out the study?
A. The guineafowl's social behavior.
B. Previous assumptions about birds.
C. His interest in animal brainpower.
D. The faults in earlier research.
9. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The research subjects. B. The research methods.
C. The research findings. D. The research equipment.
10. What can be learned from the passage?
A. Complex social systems can be a disadvantage to the guineafowl.
B. The guineafowl are good at recognizing individuals in a group.
C. Birds maintain social order by travelling in combined groups.
D. Small-brained animals can form multilevel societies.
11. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To present the findings of a study of the guineafowl.
B. To explain the interaction patterns in multilevel societies.
C. To introduce a new approach to observing the guineafowl.
D. To uncover clues about how complex societies are formed.

Petrol and diesel cars may still dominate our roads, but their days are numbered. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 per cent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 per cent by 2020.
One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been ‘range anxiety'--- drivers' concerns about running out of juice on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA.
Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed quite considerably over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their large price tags drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade critics. Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine models a run for their money.
As well as advancements on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality.
Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions. Were the US to act on the study's findings and replace 87 per cent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 per cent. However, because of the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner.
12. Which is the best title for this passage?___
A. My Dream Car
B. History of Electric Cars
C. Problems with Petrol Cars
D. Driving into the Future
13. As used in Paragraph 2, the underlined word "hurdle" means___.
A. aim
B. barrier
C. consequence
D. step
14. In the past, why did many people refuse to buy electric cars?
A. They were not good value.
B. They were very poorly made.
C. They were not widely promoted.
D. They couldn’t travel at high speed.
15. What is the function of Paragraph 4?___
A. To introduce the history of electric travel.
B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars.
10
C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars.
D. To describe different ways electric vehicles can be used.
