Ⅳ.阅读理解

主题语境:人与社会　体裁:说明文

With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives,it is only a matter of time before someone invents smart shoes — ones that can be made based on personal needs.Called “ShiftWear”,the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of businessmen,and engineers led by New York-based designer David Coelho.

The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app.Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design from a variety of HD patterns by famous artists or creating one themselves.The company’s founders imagine the marketplace where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others.Despite being electronic,the designs are clearly visible even in the brightest sunlight.What’s even cooler is that by switching on backlight,users can even show their designs in the dark!

According to Coelho,the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed.Though they will need periodic recharging,active users have nothing to worry about.That’s because the shoes are equipped with special WalkNCharge technology that powers the shoes—with every step.Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without using wires.

The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers,a kind of strong material,reducing normal wear and tear.Even better,they are completely waterproof (防水的) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1,000 depending on the size of the EPanels where the designs are displayed.

This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined.Lithuaniabased iShuh Technologies has come up with a similar concept that connects ereader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth.Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen,though they surely are attractive.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款智能运动鞋。

1.What can we know about the smart shoes from the text?

A.The electronic designs cannot be seen clearly at night.

B.The designers make sure every pair of sneakers is unique.

C.The bottom part of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.

D.The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.

答案C

解析推理判断题。根据第四段第一句可知,鞋子的底部附着凯芙拉合成纤维,这是一种增强材料,可以减少正常的磨损,据此可知,由于使用了特殊的材料,这种鞋子的鞋底比较耐磨,故C项正确。

2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

A.How the sneakers are charged.

B.How the sneakers can work well.

C.What images the sneakers show.

D.What technology the sneakers carry.

答案A

解析段落大意题。通读第三段可知,第一句为该段的主题句,结合全段内容可知,该段主要介绍了这种鞋子是如何充电的:活跃的用户可以通过走路来充电,不活跃的用户也可以不用电线充电,故A项正确。

3.The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on 　　　. 

A.the length of the shoes

B.the size of their EPanels

C.the designers of the shoes

D.the material of their bottoms

答案B

解析细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知,该公司预计,这款鞋的价格范围将是从150美元到1000美元,取决于展示这些设计的电子显示面板的尺寸,故B项正确。

4.How does the author feel about the sneakers’ future market?

A.Negative. B.Anxious.

C.Uncertain. D.Confident.

答案C

解析观点态度题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,尽管这些智能鞋子很有吸引力,但它们是否会像我们的智能设备一样流行还有待观察,据此可推知,作者对这种鞋子的未来持不确定的态度,故C项正确。

Ⅵ.读后续写

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Once there was a little girl named Emily.Although her singing was very pleasant to hear,lacking of courage,she never dared to sing in front of strangers.

One summer,the neighborhood where she lived would hold a singing competition.Her best friend,Lucy,came to invite her to participate in the competition,but Emily said,“I’m afraid to take part in it.” Her mother said,“It’s okay;just do it bravely.” Emily followed her mama’s advice and decided to give herself a try.The day came.Emily and Lucy went to the competition site.But she was too timid (胆小的)to walk onto the stage.She had been waiting until others finished singing.She shakily (颤抖地)forced herself to stand on the stage.She started to sing,but her voice was so low.What’s worse,she was so nervous that she forgot the lyrics (歌词)after singing a few words.Being laughed at by others,embarrassed and shy,she ran away from the stage.

Some naughty boys ran after her and said,“Emily,coward (胆小鬼)!Emily,coward!” Emily didn’t argue with them.What she wanted was to go back home as quickly as she could.Finally,she rushed into the house,hugged her mom and cried sadly.

“Well,my poor girl,don’t cry.Tell me what happened to you,” asked her mom.Emily looked up at her mother and told her what she had experienced.

Listening to her,her mom cupped her face and said,“It doesn’t matter,girl.As long as you practice singing more in front of strangers,you will become braver little by little.So,my girl,don’t be beaten by a failure.You can go out to practice singing every day.No matter who is listening to you,go on singing and never stop.I believe there will be a harvest for you.”

注意:1.续写词数应为150左右。

Emily listened to her mother carefully and followed her mom’s suggestion. 

Going on singing,she walked into the park,where many people were singing and dancing.
