A
17. It was a great gift to the world from ancient China. Before it was invented, sailors had to depend on the stars to find direction. After it was invented, the oceans were open to travel. And many new discoveries were made with the help of it.
It was one of the greatest inventions. It is said that in the 3rd century a Chinese man wrote about how to make it. At first, it was used for making fireworks. At the end of the Tang dynasty, people began to use it in wars. The method of making it was brought to the Arab world and Europe in the 13th and 14th centuries.
China was the first country in the world to make paper. During the Western Han dynasty(202 B. C.—A. D. 9), paper was made in some places in China. It was developed in the Eastern Han dynasty(A. D. 25—A. D. 220) by Cai Lun. He made paper with bark, ropes, rags and so on. Before it was invented, the ancient Chinese carved characters on animal bones and stones. They also wrote them on bamboo and wooden sticks.
It was developed in 1041—1048 in the Song dynasty. A man named Bi Sheng carved characters on pieces of clay and wood. Then he put ink on them. After the characters were printed on paper, the pieces of clay or wood could be used again. This technology then spread to Korea, Japan and Europe. It was the basic method at that time.

You don't have to be a scientist to solve big environmental problems. One Dutch designer is finding creative ways to make a change—and he's inviting bikers to join him.
Daan Roosgaarde, 38, is a designer from Holland. He uses creative ideas to improve city life. For his Smog (雾霾) Free Project, he designed a special tower that cleans air in Chinese parks. In Holland, he designed a shining bicycle path.
Now Daan and his team are working with engineers at Chinese bike-sharing company Ofo to create a new product for public use. It's an air-cleaning machine connected to a bicycle and is part of the Smog Free Project. In smoggy weather, the machine would breathe in the air in front of the bike and blow out a stream of clean air toward the biker's face.
It's no secret that air pollution is a big problem for China. In winter, it's common for thick clouds of haze (霾), caused largely by factory production, burning of coal and car emissions (排放物), to cover areas of China.
In 2016, only one-fourth of Chinese cities met the country's air quality standards, according to a survey of 338 cities nationwide from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
"Of course one tower and a few bikes won't solve China's air pollution problem,'' Daan said. "But smog-free bikes are an exciting idea that will hopefully inspire communities to create greener cities."
1.According to the writer, _.
A.air pollution is not a big problem in China.
B.creative ideas may help improve city life
C.only scientists can solve big environmental problems
D.the survey of 338 cities nationwide was not necessary
2.The air-cleaning machine offers clean air to the biker by .
A.blowing out dirty air
B.running fast with the bike
C.cleaning the air around the biker
D.breathing in dirty air and cleaning it
3.From the passage, we know that .
A.people who have creative ideas can get free bikes
B.only smog-free bikes can go on the shining bicycle path
C.Daan and his family spent all their time improving China's air quality
D.China's haze in winter happens because of more than three causes
4.Daan is inviting bikers to join him in order to .
A.raise money for the tower
B.test his new machine
C.help solve the air pollution problem
D.make more Chinese friends
5.What is the best title for the passage'
A.Breathing In and Out
B.Biking for Fresh Air
C.Survey from the Government
D.China's Air Pollution Problem
C
What was discovered by accident The answer is penicillin(青霉素). It kills germs. By killing germs, it saves lives. Suppose you are sick. You go to a doctor. She examines you. She says you have a "staph" infection(葡萄球菌感染). She gives you some medicine. You take it. The medicine knocks out the staph. Soon you are well. Before penicillin, this would not happen. Staph was almost sure death.
Everyone wanted a medicine. Laboratories worked day and night. They grew the staph in small dishes. Then they tried to kill it. Nothing worked.
The laboratory dishes had covers on them. They kept things from falling into dishes. Moulds(霉菌) were a big worry. They are always in the air. You can't see them. They're too small. There are thousands of different moulds. Moulds can make an experiment(实验) fail. That's why dishes are covered.
Dr Alexander Fleming was working to kill the staph germs. He worked for years. One clay he took a cover off a dish. He looked inside. There was a thick growth of staph germs. There were also some moulds. Then he saw something strange. Where the moulds were, there was no growth of staph. This is what Fleming probably thought. "By accident, I found a mould to kill the dreaded staph."
This is how penicillin was found. But here's the real miracle(奇迹). There are thousands of kinds of moulds. But only one kind can kill staph. The mould must have fallen into the dish a few days before. The cover was probably off only a few seconds(秒). In those few seconds the right mould fell into the right dish. Another man might have thrown the dish away. But Fleming was very careful and smart. He understood what the mould did. How lucky the humans were!
1.During the experiments to find a medicine for staph infections, _____.
A.the dishes were not covered B.staph and mould were put together
C.mould was kept in small dishes D.staph was grown in small dishes
2.The word "dreaded" means "_____".
A.famous B.scary C.healthy D.endangered
3.The last paragraph suggests that _____.
A.accidents happen to everyone
B.the careful person does not have accidents
C.the careless person will miss valuable chances
D.luck is enough when doing scientific experiments
4.Most of this passage is written by _____.
A.telling an unusual story B.showing the results of experiments
C.offering some reasons D.giving some advice
5.This passage is mainly about _____.
A.medicine for a staph infection B.useful accidents

答案以及解析
一、
1.答案：A

2.答案：B
解析：考查固定搭配。句意：人们经常把孩子们比作花朵。 compare...to...是固定搭配，意为"把……比作……"。故选B。
3.答案：C

4.答案：A
解析：考查数词的用法。句意：衡山是一座著名的山，每年都有成千上万的游客来到这里。 thousand后不接of，如果接of，则用 thousands形式，表示概数，意为"成千上万的"，由句意可知选A。
5.答案：D
解析：考查数词的用法。句意：中国中央电视台的节目《朗读者》引起了成千上万所有年龄段的人的兴趣。 thousand前有具体数字时，其后无需加-s； thousand后接of时需用复数形式， thousands of表示"成千上万"。由句意可知选D。
6.答案：D
解析：考查时态和语态。句意：据我们所知，世界上越来越多的人对中国文化感兴趣，所以汉语很受欢迎，在世界上被广泛使用。句中it指代 Chinese，与 speak之间是被动关系，要用被动语态。语境描述的是现在的情况，应用一般现在时的被动语态。故选D。
7.答案：C
解析：考查被动语态的用法。句意：12岁以下的儿童不应该被允许骑共享单车。太危险了。根据语境可知，应用 allow sb. to do sth. 被动语态形式sb. be allowed to do sth."某人被允许做某事"。故选C。
8.答案：D
解析：考查it作形式主语的固定句式。句意: 琳达下定决心学习一门演奏乐器是明智的。在句式"It's +形容词+of/for sb. to do sth."中, 形容词如果是描述人物品质或性格的, 后面使用介词of。而且这个结构中it是形式主语, 真正的主语是后面的不定式短语。故选D。
9.答案：B
解析：点拨:根据后句It will land…可知要用将来时态，又主语为物，与动词send是被动关系，要用被动语态。
10.答案：B
解析：考查动词的用法。句意：一Clara，你借《西游记》已经两周了。一对不起，我本来想还的，但上周我因出差离开达州了。由上句中的时间状语" for two weeks"可知，第一空应用延续性动词，borrow为非延续性动词，可排除A、D两项。由第二空前面的"was made"可知，此处是被动语态结构，make由主动语态变为被动语态时，其后需用带to的动词不定式表达，应排除C项。故选B。
11.答案：B
解析：考查动词短语辨析。句意：书在这儿，先浏览一下，然后告诉我你的看法。 look into调查； look through浏览； look down向下看； look after照顾。由句意可知选B。

解析：No. 8 Subway与complete之间是被动关系, 根据时间状语in 2021可知应用一般将来时, 因此用一般将来时的被动语态。故选A项。
15.答案：D
解析：句意为: —第32届奥运会将于2020年在东京举行。一是的! 自从第一届奥运会在1896年举行, 已经100多年了。题干中两空所在句的主语与动词hold之间均为被动关系, 所以应用被动语态。第一句中的will后跟动词原形, 而第二句中的since从句应用一般过去时。所以答案为D项。
