How do astronauts live in space? Eating In the past, astronauts could only eat small pieces of dried food. But now they are able to eat more everyday food like fruit, vegetables and ice-cream. Sleeping All the people on the ISS（国际空间站）have their own rooms. They should be tied（系）to their beds, or theyll fly away! That seems like a hard way to sleep, but astronauts say sleeping is really not too bad. Exercising This is more important in space than on earth. Astronauts exercise on bikes and other machines（机器）for about two hours every day. That way, they can still be healthy when they get back home. Having fun Astronauts can read books, play cards, listen to music or send emails to their friends and families when they arent working. Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window.

But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, thanks to the so-called “Internet of things”.The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. Earlier this year, Samsung CEO spent a lot of time talking about the Internet things. He said that four years from now, every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things, no matter whether its a remote control or a washing machine.So, how do household objects that are part of the Internet of things work? Well, think of a common chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.An Internet-connected camera could help people feel safer in their homes. It can know peoples faces and has an infrared sensor（红外传感器), so even if its dark it can see when someone passes by and send you a message on your smartphone to let you know whos there. If the person is someone you dont know, it can tell you that, too.But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security（安全）systems to the Internet, there may be some problems. For example, many early connected-home objects dont have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked. Moreover, it could be difficult to get these new machines to work together especially when they are made by different companies. To fight this, many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2015.So, picture this: you enter your home.The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think.（1） According to Samsung CEO, when will his product be part of the Internet of things? A . In 2010B . In 2020C . In 2030D . In 2040（2） We can infer(推断) from paragraphs 3 and 4 that _. A . the chair can know whether the user feels cold or notB . an unusual chair can warm up when it knows the user comes inC . an Internet-connected camera can be used to take photos in the houseD . an Internet-connected camera can be connected to the users smartphone（3） What does the article mainly talk about? A . Advantages of living with the InternetB . Disadvantages of living with the InternetC . The coming “Internet of things”D . The impossible “Internet of things”（4） Which of the following words best describes the writers tone (语气)in the article? A . Doubtful（可疑的）B . HopefulC . HumorousD . Worried4. （8分） 阅读理解 In 1995, Oseola McCarty gave a present of $150,000 to the University of Southern Mississippi. She wanted to help poor students. It was a very generous thing to do.

A giant panda can grow to be 1.5 metres tall and weigh up to 150 kg. People think the giant panda is very lovely. So it is not surprising that the World Wide Fund for Nature chose the giant panda as its symbol. The WWF tells people that giant pandas are in danger and raises money to save them. The giant pandas only live in China. There are fewer than 1, 600 giant pandas left in the wild. The main reason why pandas are endangered is that the area where pandas can live has become smaller. The WWF works to help giant pandas in the wild in many ways. One of the ways that help them is to increase the size of panda reserves. Some reserves need to be joined together by planting bamboo between them to make corridors(通道) . These are paths that lead from one reserve to another. No one may harm the pandas in these areas. The corridors let pandas move from one habitat(栖息地) to another to look for food. People are working very hard to make sure the giant pandas do not die out. （1） How tall and heavy can a giant panda grow to be？(不超过18个词) （2） Whats the symbol of the World Wide Fund for Nature？(不超过3个词) （3） Why are the giant pandas endangered？(不超过10个词) 四、 词汇运用，根据中文用正确形式填空。（共15题，每题1分，满分 (共10题；共10分)7. （1分） The house is very expensive because it has a big y_. 8. （1分） (2019昆山模拟) The pilot avoided an accident by _(控制)the speed and the direction of the plane. 9. （1分） My last weekend was very_（极好的）. 10. （1分） The doctor operated on the patient_(成功) yesterday. 11. （1分） (2019九上长春月考) Reading English _in the morning is important to us. 12. （1分） So far the scientists havent discovered water _this planet. （填介词） 13. （1分） (2019九上黑龙江月考) Can you d_ it in detail? 14. （1分） The film _(提醒) me of the days when I was taken care of in the village. 15. （1分） The story was really _(搞笑的) and we all laughed. 16. （1分） Edison was a great inventor and he i_many useful things in his lifetime. 五、 用方框所给单词的适当形式填空。每词仅用一次（每空一词） (共1题；共5分)17. （5分） 用方框内所给词的适当形式填空 arrive happy use miss worry（1） The Internet has become a _ tool for us. （2） Henry will give us a report as soon as he _. （3） Look!
