      What's going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10 to 0 years from now, according to the BBC.

 Digital money      

      We used to pay with cash(现金) for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card(信用卡) to shop online, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital(电子的) money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.    

When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now it's hard to live without them. It's reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.

Bionic(仿生的) eye    

It's no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back—by wearing bionic eyes.

      A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data(数据) to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A high resolution(高清的) image could be just a few years away. 

Self-driving cars     

      Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won't get distracted(分神) by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors (探测器) and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly (严格地遵守)to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce(减少) the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.

(1)、has stopped using cash completely.      

A、Sweden B、ATM C、BBC D、America
(2)、What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?     

A、We use digital money to shop online without paying money.         B、Digital money is most likely to be used instead of cash.        C、Using cash is easier and safer than a credit card.          D、ATM cards arc always popular.
(3)、Which of the following statements is TRUE?  

A、Bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction film.        B、Human drivers won't get distracted by something outside. C、The blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future.         D、There will be no road accident at all if self-driving cars are used.
(4)、From the report, we can learn some information about.      

A、culture and art B、industry and farming           C、science and technology D、traffic and journey
(5)、Which of the following can be predicted(预测) from the passage?        

A、There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road    B、The blind could use cameras to see things around.       C、We would live a hard life with digital money.          D、Robots would control the world.

To-wit-to-woo, to-wit-to-woo! What's that strange sound coming from the forest at night? It's an owl, of course! The owl is different from all other birds in so many ways. 

The owl's hearing and eyesight are better than most animal. All day long, the owl rests on the tree and sleep It hunts (捕猎) only at night. When evening comes, the animals all get to a safe place. The owl opens its big, round eyes to look around. Any little animals around had better be careful, The owl eats small animals like mice as food, but it wouldn't say no to another bird, if it's really hungry. 

The owl uses its great hearing to find its food, and then it turns its head from side to side. using its sharp (敏锐的) eyes to fly after the animal. Finally, it flies down to get the animal. Owls have special, soft feathers (羽毛), so they can fly without making any sound. Owls are good hunters and they can even catch a fly in the air!

The owl is usually quiet, except (除余了) when you get too close to its home. The mother owl is a great mother. She will protect her babies by opening her feathers angrily. She will even hurt people if she thinks her babies are in danger!

The owl has no teeth, so it eats an animal whole. All the parts of the animal that the owl can't digest (消化) will end up as small pieces. If you find these small pieces, you know you are near an owl's home.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。

A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals(专家). If sports aren't going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore(酸痛的) the next day? Wouldn't it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports. 

First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you health y and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins(安多芬) which give you more energy and make you feel happier. 

Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect(尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. They also teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed. 

Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important. 

All in all, maybe you're not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn't matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth. Shut off lights, radios, TVs, computers and other electrical things when you leave the room. When you finish using your computer at night, shut it down. This uses less electricity than letting it"sleep".

 阅读下面短文,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入小题,并回答问题。

After a long vacation from school, it's often hard to get back into the study routine. Your mind is probably filled with short-term memory gaps and new experiences that make you feel like your brain has been taking a long nap. Since schools will go back to their normal system, students also need to get ready early. Here are some simple tips that can help you get back into the swing of studying:

Create the desire (欲望) to learn.

The driving force behind achieving success in life is desire. As a student, you must have the desire to lean. When there is a desire to learn, it will help you get back to your study habit faster. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Learning can be difficult, but fear and worrying won't solve the problem either.

Make a list of priorities.

Once you've got the basics down, it's time to make a list of what's important. This is the most important step in any plan: you have to put your tasks in order and make sure they're not all piled up on top of each other. Don't forget that there are also time limits involved. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Find a way to track your progress.

There are several ways to make sure you keep track of your progress. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} If not, then find one online or at school, and make sure it's easy to find when you need it. This way, even if you forget what day a task is due (到期), there will always be some kind of reminder nearby to tell you when things need to be done next time.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

It's okay to ask for help. You don't have to do it alone, and the more people who help you, the better. You will learn from their experiences and feel more confident by being able to make your own decisions when needed.

Getting back into studying can be a challenge; knowing how to handle it will help you in your future studies.

A. You must keep away from all kinds of fear.

B. Use a calendar if you have one in your room.

C. The first battle you need to win is in your mind.

D. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.

E. This way, you can make sure you're spending your time wisely.

Among the four tips mentioned in the passage, which one do you think is the most important? Why? (不超过20词){#blank#}5{#/blank#}
