阅读理解

    Part of Earth's beauty comes from its oceans. Ocean scientists study the chemical make-up of the ocean, weather patterns, the geography of the ocean floor, and many other areas. Their work is exciting, although sometimes dangerous. Using technology to do certain tasks helps. For example, robotic arms are used for very dangerous tasks.

    One basic part of ocean study is understanding waves and how they work. Wind is the great maker of waves. The waves we know are mostly produced by winds blowing over the sea. They are directly connected with the wind speed and the time that wind lasts.

    Sometimes ocean life can be seen in the wave. Living things seem to be staying within the wave, moving slowly inside it as if they were weightless. Besides the beauty of waves, scientists are interested in their technical ways. The diagram of waves shows how scientists examine waves. Waves are measured (测量) from the top (crest) to the bottom (trough). This allows scientists to find out the height of a wave. They also measure waves from crest to crest to determine (测定) the length of a wave.

    During serious storms, huge waves migh cut a sea ship apart. Ships are at great risk of winding up as broken pieces after being hit by the force of a huge wave. By understanding the ocean, scientists can prevent this breakup of ships by predicting when the water will be too dangerous for people and their ships. The study of waves and the ocean also allows scientists to make sure how certain beaches were formed. By studying the oceans, a great deal can be learned about the surface we live on.

(1)、Why are robotic arms used? Because __________
A、certain tasks are very dangerous B、the tasks are exciting C、the occans are beautiful D、there are many studying areas
(2)、What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A、Waves can make wind. B、Most waves are produced by winds. C、Scientists make most waves. D、Waves have nothing to do with wind.
(3)、What is the meaning of "the length of a wave" according to paragraph 3?
A、The beauty of huge waves. B、The techical way to study the sea. C、The distance from crest to crest of a wave. D、The distance from the top to the bottom of a wave.
(4)、Which of the following statements are right according to the passage?

①Scientists can decide the weather patterns.

②We can't find living things in the waves.

③By studying the ocean, scientists can prevent the breakup of ships.

④The study of waves helps scientists know how certain beaches were formed.

A、①③ B、②④ C、③④ D、②③
(5)、Where is the passage probably from?
A、A diary entry. B、A fairy tale. C、A travel guide. D、A science magazine.
举一反三
    Garden building is considered an important part of Chinese culture. Some people say that if you have never walked through a Chinese garden, you cannot say that you have really visited China.
    Traditional Chinese gardens are located(位于)in North China in such places as Beihai Park, the Summer Palace, the Forbidden City. In larger imperial gardens, the main buildings are connected by an imaginary(虚构的) line in the middle of the garden on the north-south axis(轴). Other features (特征)of imperial gardens are colored-paintings, man-made hills and lakes.
   Most private gardens are found in the south, especially in cities south of the Yangtze River. Private gardens were mostly built at one side or at the back of the houses. Around the beautiful scene are small open areas with beautiful shaped-doors through which visitors can enjoy the sights. They are open on all sides and are often near the water so that the whole scene can be enjoyed. Suzhou, known as the home of gardens, displays the most and the best Chinese traditional private gardens. Different parts of it are examples of the garden style of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
    The landscape garden contains a number of pleasant natural scenes and some fairy tales. The ancient Chinese used to call the garden landscape “Jing” , which means “scene” in English. Good examples include the ten West Lake Scenes in Hangzhou, the twenty-four slim West Lake in Yangzhou and the eight Daming Lake Scenes in Jinan.

Do you know ChatGPT? It's an artificial intelligence (AI 人工智能) tool. It can answer questions, tell {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( story), and do much more. But it's very" thirsty", said a new study.

In Xi' an, there is a restaurant owner named Xiong Wencheng. He {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ( offer) the" No.6 combo"—a free meal, to help people in need for three years.

There is a sign on the restaurant door, it says," you {#blank#}5{#/blank#}( experience) a hard time in Xi' an now? If you can't afford a meal, you can enter the restaurant and ask for the‘ No.6 combo'."

Have you seen a group of people with their eyes staring at a screen, singing out loud without a care in the world? If so, you have witnessed (见证) a period of karaoke time, and the people are entertaining themselves by singing along to recorded music. You don't hear the words. Instead, the words appear on a screen for the singers to follow and sing the words. This form of entertainment originated (起源) in Japan, and the word karaoke means "empty" (kara) and "orchestra" (oke).

Karaoke was invented in the early 1970s in Kobe, Japan. The inventor was a musician named Daisuke Inoue. One day, a businessman asked him for a recording of his music so that he could sing along to it at a business meeting in another town. The recording was so good that the businessman returned and asked for more songs. This gave Inoue the idea of inventing the first karaoke machine.

In its early days, the karaoke machine was found mainly in hotels and restaurants. Singers performed in front of the other customers. A lot of people loved the idea of singing their favourite songs, but didn't feel comfortable singing in front of strangers; so in the 1980s, the karaoke box was born. This was a private (私人) room where people could sing with their friends without other people hearing them. Eventually, karaoke found its way into people's homes as part of home theatre systems.

As technology advanced, karaoke-based video games were created. By 2003, people could also access karaoke services on their mobile phones. This made it possible for music lovers to burst into (突然开始) song at any time, in any place. In some countries today, karaoke machines are even found in cars and taxis for the entertainment of passengers. Karaoke is definitely here to stay, and it will continue to adapt to our changing lifestyles.
