26、   People made wings and strapped them to their arms. They flapped their arms but couldn’t fly. They built gliders(滑翔机), light aircraft with wings. Some didn’t work, but some did.

The gliders that worked had special wings. These wings were arched on both the top and the bottom. The air pulled the wings from above and pushed the wings from below. When the wings went up, so did the glider! Arched wings help create a force called lift. Lift is the force that keeps the gliders in the air.

Most gliders have long, thin wings. The wings create enough lift to carry the aircraft and its passengers. Gliders usually ride currents of air the same way a hawk soars(飞翔).

Gliders are very light, and long wings and air currents can give them enough lift to fly. But to carry more than just a passenger or two, an aircraft needs a lot more lift. The question is: How do you create more lift?

The engine is the answer!

The engine is a machine that changes energy into movement. The forward movement that an airplane needs to fly is called thrust. More thrust makes an airplane move forward faster. Moving faster creates more lift. And with more lift, an airplane can carry more weight so an aircraft with an engine can carry passengers or cargo.

In 1903 the Wright brothers figured out how to get wings and an engine to work together in order to give an airplane enough thrust to fly. They made the first powered flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

Since then people have made airplanes that can fly faster than sound can travel. They have made airplanes that can fly all the way around the world without stopping.

Today, thousands of people travel in airplanes every day. People really have learned how to fly!

【1】If a flyer wants to stay in the air, it needs enough ________.

A.lift B.thrust

C.wings D.engines

【2】What made the flyers moving forward in the sky?

A.The air. B.The lift.

C.The thrust. D.The wind.

【3】An airplane can carry heavy weight and fly very fast mostly because of ________.

A.the lift B.the thrust

C.the sound D.the engine

【4】The whole passage mainly tells us ________.

A.how gliders were built B.how important the engine was

C.how people learned to fly D.how the first airplane was made

27、

We always enjoy pointing out some unusual holidays to add to your calendar. Now jot these down, learn something new and have fun!

Random Acts of Kindness Day （February 17）

If you have encountered a homeless person and given money, that's a random act of kindness. The idea of this day is to get lots of people doing something kind for someone they don't know with no expectation of getting anything in return. This concept is trickier with social distancing but even a big smile and a “hi!’’ from across the street qualifies.

I Forgot Day （July 2）

Did you forget to call Grandma on her birthday or return that soccer ball you borrowed from a friend three months ago? Today is a good day to clean the slate. Make a list of things you meant to do but forgot. Work through the list, and don't get discouraged if you don't accomplish everything in one day. Just remember to keep the list in a place where you'll see it. Otherwise, you know what will happen.

DOGust First （August 1）

If your family is one of the many that adopted dogs from animal shelters last year, you may not know, for example, Luna or Cooper's actual birthday. The North Shore Animal League thought of that problem in 2008 and picked today as the birthday of all shelter dogs. Give your pup extra love today, and consider what you can do to help other sheller dogs.

World Vegetarian Day （October 1）

It’s not hard to go without meat for one day, but how about one month? The North American Vegetarian Society asks people to help reduce greenhouse gases by pledging to cat no meat, fish or fowl （basically chicken or turkey） in October. The pledge is tricky for kids to make on their own because Mom and Dad are usually in charge of preparing meals. Ask them if you can participate or if the whole family could try it. You will probably be surprised about how many tasty meals are meatless.

【1】Which can be described as a random act of kindness?

A．John accepted a new job for a better salary.

B．Mr. Robert told a story in the lecture today.

C．The Smiths drove their children to school.

C．August 1.

D．October l.

28、   Navigation(导航)in unfamiliar places is a major problem in large cities.Therefore,the popularity of mobile GPS facilities has greatly risen.However,it is sometimes difficult for users to understand where to go.In addition,they have to regularly look at the screen to follow the route,thus increasing risks on the road.

Luckily,preuniversity students from the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI in Moscow have created sneakers that can give directions,count a person's steps and measure the calories burned.The smart sneakers can lead users to their destination.The idea is simple.When moving towards a turn,the right or left shoe vibrates(震动)according to the directions.

“We've developed a facility that goes well with a special mobile app via Bluetooth and receives information about a route.The facility performs all the necessary functions without affecting walking and can be joined to the laces(鞋带)of ordinary sneakers.The user only needs to run the app once,and then puts the phone away and enjoys the walk.In addition to navigation,the system can also keep track of the distance traveled.This information can be found in the mobile app,”said Alexander Pinchuk and Maxim Levkin,the authors of the project.

The team plans to continue developing the project because the smart clothing market is growing every year.According to the creators,it is likely that in a few years,smart sneakers will become popular like smart watches.

This is not the first original project of preuniversity students from the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI Valentin Klimov,deputy director of the Institute of Cyber Intelligent Systems of MEPhI,says,“Our preuniversity students have created rather original projects before.For example,last year,our students developed a useful system for people with poor eyesight and won an international children's competition;then they won the Junior competition and took part in the largest international competition:Intel ISEF.Now these guys are our first year students,and this shows the high level of our applicants.”

【1】In what way do the newly created sneakers give directions to users?

A.By following their routes. B.By vibrating their shoes.

C.By burning their calories. D.By reducing their road risks.

【2】What can be learned about the facility while working according to Paragraph3?

A.It must be put in special sneakers

B.It has a little effect on users'walking.

C.It can record where users have traveled.

D.It works with the help of an app via Bluetooth.

【3】What can be inferred about these preuniversity students?

A.They are about to graduate. B.They are ready to go for jobs.

C.They are creative and fruitful. D.They are lucky and wealthy.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Sneakers for Navigation on the Way B.Ways of Navigation in Large Cities

C.Ordinary Navigation Is out of Date D.Preuniversity Students Win Competitions

29、Language experts say that spoken English was almost the same in the American colonies and Britain two hundred years ago. Americans began to change the sound of their speech after the Revolutionary War in1776. They wanted to make it different to separate themselves from the British in language, in the same way they separated themselves from the British government.

Some American leaders proposed(建议) major changes in the language. Benjamin Franklin wanted a whole new system of spelling. His reforms(改革) were not accepted. But his ideas did influence others. One was Noah Webster.

Webster wrote language books for schools. He believed the United States should have a system of its own language as well as government. Webster published a dictionary of the American language in 1828. It established rules for speaking and spelling the words used in American English.

Webster wrote that all words should be said in the order of the letters that spell them. This is why Americans use the letters “e-r” to end many words instead of the British “r-e.” He spelled the word “center,” for example, “c-e-n-t-e-r,” instead of the British “c-e-n-t-r-e.”

Webster’s rule for saying every part of a word made American English easier for foreign settlers to learn. They learned to say “waist-coat,” for example, the way it is spelled instead of the British “wes-kit.”

The different languages of many people who came to the United States also helped make American and British English different. Many of their foreign words and expressions became part of English As Americans speak them.

Sometimes Americans and British people do not understand each other because of different word meanings. For example, the word “jumper” in Britain means a sweater. In the United States, it is a dress. The British word “brolly” is an “umbrella” in America. And the British call potato chips “crisps”. All of these differences led British writer George Bernard Shaw to joke that Britain and America are two countries separated by the same language!

【1】What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?

A．Separating themselves from the British in language.

B．Written English in America.

C．Spoken English in America.

D．Spoken English in Britain.

【2】Why did American want their language to differ from British English?

A．Because they found British English hard to speak.

B．Because they found British English hard to spell.

C．Because they wanted to have their own language and government.

D．Because foreign settlers wanted them to change their language.

【3】Why do Americans use the word “meter” instead of the word “metre”?

A．Because Benjamin Franklin didn’t like the word “metre”.

B．Because the word “meter” was absorbed from other languages.

C．Because Webster thought the word should be said in order of the letters that are spelt.

D．Because Webster thought American English should be made easier for foreign settlers to learn.

【4】Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons why English began to change in America?

A．The government leaders.

B．Noah Webster.

C．Immigration to America.

D．The difficulty Americans had in understanding the British.
