A young school teacher had a dream that an angel appeared to him and said，" You will be given a child who will grow up to become a world     . How will you prepare her so that she will realize her intelligence, develop both her confidence and sensitivity, be open-minded, yet     in character? In short, what kind of education will you     so that she can become one of the world's truly great leaders?"
The young teacher    in a cold sweat. It had never occurred to him before-any one of his present or future students could be the person     in his dream. Was he preparing them to reach any position which they may     ？ He thought，" How might my     change if I knew that one of my students were this person?" He     began to formulate （规划；想出）a plan in his mind.
This student would     experience as well as instruction. She would need to know how to solve problems of various kinds. She would need to know the value of lifelong learning in order to keep a curious and     mind.

He     the best from his students, yet tempered （使缓和）it with pity. He taught each one as if the future of the     depended on his instruction.
After many years, a woman he knew     to a position of world fame. He realized that she must    have been the girl de-scribed in his dream. Only she was not one of his     ，but his daughter. For of all the     teachers in her life, her father was the best.

What will power your house in the future? Nuclear, wind, or solar power? According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT） in the US, it might be leaves-but artificial（人造的）ones.
Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis（光合作用）. Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.
The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts（催化剂）. Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell, which uses those two materials to produce electricity, located either on top of a house or beside the house.
Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card, scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries. "One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology，" said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.
The artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf, by contrast, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype （原型）could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.
The wonderful improvements come from Nocera's recent discovery of several powerful, new and inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now, the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Be-sides, the device can run in whatever water is available; that is, it doesn't need pure water. This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.
With the goal to " make each home its own power station" and" give energy to the poor"，scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries, especially in India and rural China.
Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?
a. artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygen
b. the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cell
c. the artificial leaves are put in water
d. the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity

The purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to __________.

The main idea of this passage is __________.

The underlined word " imitate" in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by "__________".

Calling the future
When American inventor Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876，it was a revolution in communication. For the first time, people could talk to each other over great distances. Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has appeared ：the mobile phone.
The mobile phone is like a two-way radio. But the two-way radio is a limited means of communication. As soon as the users move out of range of each other's broadcast area, the signal is lost. In the 1940s, researchers experimented with the idea of using a number of radio masts（无线电杆）to pick up signals from two-way radios. A caller would always be within range of one of the masts. When he or she moved too far away from one mast, the next mast would pick up the signal. （Scientists referred to each mast's reception area as being a "cell". This is why in many countries mo-bile phones are called "cellphones".）
However，1940s, technology was just at the beginning. The "mobile phones" were huge boxes. They had to be moved by car.
The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper. As soon as his invention was complete, he tested it by calling a rival （竞争对手）scientist to announce his success. Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public.
They have changed the way we do a lot of things. One powerful feature is: the short message service（SMS） or text message. It's the perfect communication method for the busy modern lifestyle. The text message has changed the way we write in English. The language construction became more lax （松散的）. Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important.
Over the last few years mobiles have become more and more advanced. We have seen the introduction of cameras, global positioning system and Internet access.
Alexander Graham Bell would be surprised if he could see how far the science of the telephone has developed in less than 150years. If he were around today, he might say ： " That's gr8! But I'm v busy rite now. Will call U 2nite. "
The article is written to __________.

What's the CORRECT time order about the development of communication?
a. the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell
b. "mobile phones" with very large boxes
c. mobile telephone call made by Dr Martin Cooper
d. mobiles with cameras, GPS and Internet access

The last sentence of the whole passage "That's gr8 ！ But I'm v busy rite now. Will call U 2nite. " may probably mean __________.

What do you think of the author according to the last paragraph?

A black hole is created when a large star burns out. Like our sun, stars are unbelievably hot furnaces（熔炉）that burn their own matter as fuel. When most of the fuel is used up, the star begins to die.
The death of a star is not a quiet event. First there is a huge explosion. As its outer layer is blasted off into space, the dying star shines as brightly as a billion suns.
After the explosion gravity pulls in what's left of the star. As the outside of the star sinks toward the center, the star gets smaller and smaller. The material the star is made of becomes tightly packed together. A star is so dense that a teaspoon of matter from it weighs billion of pounds.
The more the star shrinks, the stronger the gravity inside it becomes. Soon the star is very tiny, and the gravity pulling it in is un-believably strong. In fact, the gravity is so strong that it even pulls light into the star! Since all the light is pulled in, none can go out. The star becomes black when there is no light. Then a black hole is born!
That's what we know about black holes. What we don't know is this ： What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squeezed into a tiny ball? Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever? Such a possibility is hard to imagine.
But if the black hole doesn't keep shrinking, what happens to it? Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world. They say that as the star disappears from our universe, it goes into another universe. In other words a black hole in our universe could turn into a " white hole" in a different universe. As the black hole swallows light, the white hole shines brightly-somewhere else. But where? A different place, perhaps, or a different time-many years in the past or future.
Could you travel through a black hole? Right now, no. Nothing we know of could go into a black hole without being crushed. So far the time being, black holes must remain a mystery.
Black holes are a mystery-but that hasn't stopped scientists from dreaming about them. One scientist suggested that in the future we might make use of the power of black holes. They would supply all of Earth's energy needs, with plenty to spare. Another scientist wondered if a black hole could some day be used to swallow earthly waste-a sort of huge waste disposal（处理）in the sky!
When the star begins to die __________.

Which of the following doesn't help produce a black hole?

The black hole __________.

The author mainly intended to tell us __________.

Welcome to your future life ！
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035，medical technology is better than ever. Many people your age could live to be 150，so at 40，you're not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging（抗衰老的） treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
You say to your shirt，"Turn red. "It changes from blue to red. In 2035，" smart clothes" contain particles（粒子）much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change your clothes' color or pattern.
You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says，" You shouldn't drink that ！" Your fridge has read the chip （芯片）that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035，every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.
It's time to go to work. In 2035，cars drive themselves. Just tell your" smart car" where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such " smart technology" is all around you.
So will all these things come true? "For new technology to succeed，" says scientist Andrew Zolli，" it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already. " The Internet is one example-what will be the next?
We can learn from the text that in the future __________.

What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

Which of the following is mentioned in the text?

What is the text mainly about?

Olaf Stapledon wrote a book called First and Last Men, in which he looked millions of years ahead. He told of different men and of strange civilizations（文明），broken up by long "dark ages" in between. In his view, what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men. In 2，000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men.
However, most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted. Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years. But the next hundred? The next thousand? The next million? That's much more difficult.
When men and women lived by hunting 50，000 years ago, how could they even begin to picture modern life? Yet to men of 50，000years from now, we may seem as primitive（原始的）in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us. Perhaps they will spend their days gollocking to make new spundels, or struggling with their ballalators through the cribe. These words, which I have just made up, have to stand for things and ideas that we simply can't think of.
So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future? Here are two reasons. First, unless we remember how short our own lives are compared with the whole human history, we are likely to think our own interests are much more important than they really are. If we make the earth a poor place to live on because we are careless or greedy （贪婪）or quarrelsome, our grandchildren will not bother to think of excuses for us.
Second, by trying to escape from present interests and imagine life far in the future, we may arrive at quite fresh ideas that we can use ourselves. For example, if we imagine that in the future men may give up farming, we can think of trying it now. So set your imagination free when you think about the future.
A particular mention made of Stapledon's book in the opening paragraph __________.

The text discusses men and women 50，000 years ago and 50，000 years from now in order to show that __________.

Spundels and ballalators are used in the text to refer to __________.

According to the writer of the text, imagining the future will __________.

[1] "The other day I was taking my daughter to school when a young woman suddenly walked straight off the pavement in front of my car, eyes glued to her phone as she was texting. I hit the brakes and slid to a stop, just in time not to run into her. What a near miss! Lady, I beg you to look where you're going ！ " A man complained to a journalist yesterday.
[2]    In fact, of more than 1，000 people crossing 20 different roads in Seattle，10% were listening to music，7% were texting and6% were having conversations on phone, the journal Injury Prevention reports and it estimates there was a 5% rise in the numbers of pedestrian deaths and injuries from June 2012.
[3]    The texters were four times more likely to ignore red lights or fail to look both ways before crossing. And it took almost two seconds longer to cross the road. Listening to music seems to shorten the time taken to cross the road, but when they were doing it they were less likely to look both ways before crossing.
[4]    Kevin Clinton, from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, said，" Looking properly when you are walking is as important as when you are driving, so take care not to be dangerously distracted, whether by mobile phones, listening to music or being caught up in conversations with other people. Road users need to be tuned in to what's happening around them and shouldn't do the wrong thing at the wrong time. We have always told motorists to look out for pedestrians. Now we are increasingly telling pedestrians to __________. A change in attitudes, similar to efforts around drunk-driving, will be important to limit the risk of pedestrian misbehavior. "
