If you wanted to get as far away from other people as you possibly could, Easter Island would be a good place to go. It’s about 2,000 kilometers from its nearest neighbors, out in the southern Pacific Ocean.
Easter Island is a small triangle about 3,500 kilometers west of Republic of Chile. Easter Island is a special part of Chile. It was discovered by a Dutch pioneer in 1722, but it had been there for about 1,000 years before that. Scientists think that the first pioneers on Easter Island came from the Marguesas Islands, more than 3,000 kilometers away. Imagine making that journey in such a small boat!
________ The moai are statues of men with huge heads and stem faces, lining many of the island’s coasts. People believe the statues are symbols of ancestors. Easter Islanders put the statues up to allow the ancestors to continue to watch over their lands. The moai were made between AD 1100 and AD 1680. Wonderfully, Easter Islanders used only hand tools to make them! Some of these statues weigh more than 80 tons! People aren’t sure how these statues were moved. It must have taken many people working together to move them.
In addition to the moai, Easter Island has other stone carvings, stone buildings, and wood carvings. This unusual culture developed its own written language, though most of it has been lost. Easter Island has had many tragedies, including war, hunger, disease, and environmental disasters. It can be difficult to be so far from the rest of the world. But Easter Islanders seem hardy and strong, like their statues. They are keeping their ancient culture while connecting more and more with the outside world.

B．It lies in Republic of Chile.

21．What does the underlined word “tragedies” probably mean

How cool would it be to have a flying robot What’s the first thing you would do with it Maybe send it into war, or use it to watch your neighbors secretly Well, this is not just a fantasy anymore. Drones are remote-controlled flying robots, and they are getting more popular every day. But is this a good thing for society
The popularity of drones has increased in recent years as technology has improved and got cheaper. A civil (民用的) drone with a high-quality camera and four helicopter propellers now sells online for just a few hundred US dollars. Drones are extremely useful for making videos because their cameras link directly to phones or computers. Nowadays, anyone can get professional-looking fly-by pictures from different angles (角度).
But could this cause problems Because drones are so affordable, it means that anyone can send a robot flying around the neighborhood. People might be surprised to find a camera flying outside their window. This should be a terrible worry for people who care about their privacy.
Many governments also spend a lot of money on drones, but for very different reasons. The United States uses military drones for spying. Its most powerful drones, however, are Predator drones, which can fly higher than 15,000 meters at over 300 kilometers per hour. And no, they don’t just take pretty videos. A predator drone can hold 360 kilograms worth of bombs (炸弹), enough to completely break down an enemy camp. The man controlling the drone sits safely away from the action, so it’s impossible to know for sure who is getting mon people might be in danger.
Drones are new-born inventions with a new technology. People are still discovering their possible uses, and maybe someday you’ll come up with a new cool way to use your own remote-controlled robot.
23．How does the writer introduce the topic in the first paragraph
A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions.
C．By showing facts. D．By giving an example.
24．What are the drones you can buy online most likely to be
A．They are usually sold online at a very high price.
B．They can be used to secretly take pictures of people.
C．They are difficultly controlled if used without good training.
D．They can be used for both photography and military purposes.
25．Why does the writer use the sentence “And no, they don’t just take pretty videos.”
A．To compare military drones with civil drones.
B．To suggest what military drones will do in the future.
C．To give an example of what military drones cannot do.
D．To show the same fact between military drones and civil drones.
26．What can be the best title of the passage
A．A Great Research Military Drones
B．A Popular Technology:Video Drones
C．A New Invention:Remote-controlled Drones
D．A Useful Product:Remote-controlled Flying Robots

“I guess so,” Greg said. “But you really think that treasure of yours was worth fighting against the bad guys ”
“As a boy, you’re sure to ask such a foolish question. What else can be more valuable than what a man can pass on to his son or daughter ” Lemon said as he put his treasure back in place.

【导语】本文分别讲述了iPad和书籍对学生的好处，在作者看来，如果恰当地使用iPad，有利于促进学生的学习。
46．句意：他们可以很容易地在iPad上搜索到信息。此处泛指，用不定冠词a/an，iPad是元音音素开头的单词，前用an。故填an。
47．句意：而且，他们可以把所有的资料都放在一台小机器里，而不用带又多又重的书。根据“a small machine...carrying many heavy books”，可知考查短语“而不是”instead of。故填of。
48．句意：但是一些学生认为书籍对学习是更有帮助的。空前are为系动词，后加形容词，help形容词为helpful。故填helpful。
49．句意：第一，书籍可以帮助他们更努力和更深入地思考，因为他们在看书时可能会问自己一些问题。because后句子主语是they，宾语也是they，主宾一致强调他们自己，用反身代词themselves。故填themselves。
50．句意：第二，看书不会伤害眼睛。根据“First...Third...”，可知此处表顺序，用序数词“第二”second，放句首首字母大写。故填Second。
51．句意：其次，看书不会伤害眼睛。空前“their”是第三人称复数，后加复数名词，eye复数为eyes。故填eyes。
52．句意：第三，一些学生甚至会在学校花宝贵的时间玩游戏。“花费时间做某事”spend time doing sth，play动名词为playing。故填playing。
53．句意：在我看来，如果恰当地使用iPad会促进我们的学习。该句为if引导的条件状语从句，时态为主将从现，一般将来时态结构为will+动词原形。故填will improve。
54．句意：由于老师会把作业发送到他们的iPad上，学生将不会忘记作业。两个句子中间用连词，且为因果关系，空后为原因，用连词because。故填because。
55．句意：这对我们的学习是有帮助的，尤其是英语学习。“尤其地，特别地”especially。故填especially。
56．范文：
Dear Sam,
I’m glad to hear from you. We have many kinds of after-school activities, such as playing basketball, doing science experiments, reading or painting. We are encouraged to participate in them, in which our interest and talent are fully developed. Every time when I am free, I enjoy myself by taking part in all kinds of after-class activities. Among all these after-school activities, what appeal to me most is playing basketball and reading. The reason why I like playing basketball is that I can be stronger and stronger when doing sports. I can not only build up my body but also gain a perfect platform and rich choices for my future development. Besides, I can make some new friends. Reading is beneficial to all people, which can enrich knowledge and broaden people’s horizon. I also find it a great help to my English study. I can learn a lot of new words from the English novels that I read.
In short, I really enjoy the after-school activities. Could you tell me your school activities Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours
Li Hua
