There will also be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three such cars can fit in the space now needed for one car of the usual size. The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers an hour. The cars of the future will be fine for getting around a city, but they will not be useful for long trips. Little cars will go 450 kilometers before needing to stop for more gasoline(汽油). If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big, fast cars and other roads will be needed for the slower, small ones. (A)20.There is much pollution in the air today because _.

We have a more comfortable life now, but we also have more problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. Pollution comes in many ways. The earth is much more 36.polluted(受污染的) than before. For example, do you remember the stars in the 37.sky(天空) at night? Can you see them now?Many years ago, the problem was not so 38.serious(严重的) because there were not so many people. When people used the land up or made the river dirty in one place, they moved to 39.another(另一个) place. But they cant do it now because there may not be enough lands or rivers. Pollution also kills animals. People kill lots of animals by changing their living places. Some 40.scientists(科学家) say these places are hard to rebuild. From this, we can see that people are bringing 41.danger(危险) to everything on the 42.earth(地球).Why does this 43.happen(发生)? Some people think that we human beings are the smartest animals in the world, so we can do anything we want. But now more and more people 44.disagree(不同意). They think this idea is wrong, and if people keep thinking like this, they will kill 45.themselves(他们自己) one day. They hope that people and the nature can live in harmony(和谐共处).(B)用方框中所给词的适当形式填空。possible, fall, shape, probably, dance46.There are many robots dancing on the stage(舞台).47.It is impossible for my grandfather to shop online. He knows nothing about Internet.48.Im a kite lover. I have many kites in different shapes and colors. 49.Some old houses fell down in my hometown last summer.50.Tom is probably in the classroom, but Im not sure.五、语法填空(10分)There are many people in the world now. There 51.will_be(be) a lot more people next century(世纪). The earth will be very 52.crowded(crowd) so there will be a little room 53.for each person. Maybe there will be only standing room on the earth 600 54.years(year) later. That will be a very serious problem. But man is thinking of a way 55.to_solve(solve) the problem. 56.The moon is the satellite(卫星) of the earth. Maybe man will go 57.to_live(live) on the moon one day. But there is no air, no plants 58.and no life there. So scientists 59.are_doing(do) experiments now in many ways. They have to solve many problems 60.before man can live on the moon. I am sure our dreams will come true in the next century.六、书面表达(25分)61.假设你叫Henry,是一名美国中学生,你有一个梦想,希望将来拥有一个名叫Superman的机器人,可以帮你做以下事情:(1)打扫房子和购物;(2)陪你下棋和玩电脑;(3)还是一位百事通,你不懂的知识它都可以帮你找到答案。请你给你的朋友Dave写一封80词左右的电子邮件,和他分享你的梦想。_(1)本题要求根据自己的想象来描述未来。给出的提示和要求具体且明确。介绍未来时,多用一般将来时,且多用表示“将来”的时间状语。写作时要注意不能遗漏提示要点,层次清晰,语言流畅,想象合理。(2)文章结构开篇点题:我有一个梦想I have a dream.
