Who wants to carry a bulky bag to school? No children. Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining(疼痛) too. In India, most of us would look at the reduction(減少) of textbooks as a way out. But in a country like America, there are always more choices. A company called Goreader has created a “school bag” which is the size of a laptop computer, weighing about 2.5kg. The Goreader has a colour screen and can “hold” all the textbooks that a student may need, says a report in “The Asian Age” newspaper.
The company plans to work closely with the publishers of test books so that these books can be supplied on the Internet. All the students will have to download their textbooks. Making notes and marking important parts of a lesson can be done just as lots of students have done on their textbooks before.
At present, the plan is being tested out in a university. Richard Katzmann, the owner of the company is having his creation tested at Chicago’s DePaul University, where he studied. Does that mean it is goodbye to the newspaper, and the smell of the black ink?
小題1:What does the underlined word “bulky” in the first line mean?
A．lightB．smallC．big and heavyD．old
小題2:What would Indians do to solve this problem?
A．They would reduce the textbooks.
B．They would tell the parents to help students.
C．They would tell the teachers to help students.
D．They would take students to school by bus.
小題3:The writer may think that Americans have a ______ way to solve the problem.
A．more stupidB．worseC．betterD．quicker
小題4:The Goreader may be a machine ________.
A．that can work as a teacher
B．that can be used as textbooks
C．that can cheat(欺騙) students.
D．that can hurt students
小題5: When the new machine is used, it is possible that ________.
A．students might study harder
B．students might study at home
C．students might not need teachers
D．students might study without paper textbooks

小題1:C 
小題2:A
小題3:C
小題4:B
小題5:D

試題分析：這篇文章主要介紹了為了減輕書包的重量，美國發(fā)明了一種新的書包。它帶有顯示屏，學(xué)生只要下載教材到里面，就能夠把書包當(dāng)課本用。這種書包已經(jīng)開始了試用，這是否意味著我們要告別紙質(zhì)教材呢 ？
小題1:詞義猜測題。從后文Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining(疼痛) too.沒有人愿意一個肩膀比另一個肩膀低，并承受疼痛。從而判斷沒人愿意背大而中的書包，故選C。
小題2: 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章第一段 In India, most of us would look at the reduction(減少) of textbooks as a way out。在印度，大多數(shù)人認(rèn)為減輕課本的重量是一個解決辦法，故選A。
小題3:判斷推理題。在文章的第二三段，講了美國減輕書包重量這個方法的優(yōu)點，從而判斷作者認(rèn)為這個方法更好，故選C。
小題4:判斷推理題。從文中描述The Goreader has a colour screen and can “hold” all the textbooks that a student may need.這種Goreader書包有個彩色屏幕，能個容納所有學(xué)生的教材；All the students will have to download their textbooks.學(xué)生要做的就是下載課本。從而判斷這種書包可以用做教材，故選B。
小題5:判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中的描述，學(xué)生們不再需要紙張的教材，只要下載教材就能通過Goreader書包來學(xué)習(xí)，以及文章的最后一句Does that mean it is goodbye to the newspaper, and the smell of the black ink?這是否意味著要和紙張和黑色墨水顏色說再見了呢？從而判斷D正確。

Should we be afraid of sharks(鯊魚)? Maybe not. New research into the reasons for shark attacks (攻擊) suggests that sharks don’t like the way humans taste! In fact, most people who are attacked by the shark are still alive after receiving only one bite (咬). Why is this?
There are many opinions to explain why sharks sometimes attack people. One opinion is that sharks are just curious (好奇的). We know that sharks are the strongest animals in their environment, so they are not afraid of anything. Naturally, that means they are curious when they meet something unusual. Because they don’t have hands or feet., the only way they can find out an object is to bite it! It is thought that sharks sometimes bite humans for this reason, and then swim away.
Scientists also say that sharks would not waste energy trying to eat a human, as we have a lot of bones (骨頭). It is hard for a shark to eat us because sharks don’t have hands, and they can’t pull the meat off our bones. Maybe that’s why they only bite us once. Unluckily, one bite from a large shark is serious enough to hurt people greatly!
Another opinion is that sharks attack humans by mistake. Some sharks may sometimes mistake humans for a seal. An example of this is when a shark  attacks a surfer. A surfer lying on a surfboard looks like a seal when seen from below. Sharks like seals because they have thick fat.
Whatever the reason for shark attacks on humans, sharks should be afraid of us. Sadly, we kill almost 40 million of them each year.
小題1:What happens to people attacked by sharks?
A．Most of them because blind.B．Most of them because of deaf.
C．Most of them died.D．Most of them are still alive.
小題2: How do sharks find out about an unusual object according to the passage?
A．By biting.B．By smelling.
C．By touching.D．By killing.
小題3:Which sentence about sharks is true?
A．Sharks pull meat off bones when they eat.
B．Sharks might mistake humans for seals.
C．Sharks like to attack surfers because of their thick fat.
D．One bite from a shark is nothing serious.
小題4:What would the author write the passage mainly for?
A．To tell surfers to stay away from sharks.
B．To ask people to stop killing sharks.
C．To let us know the reasons for shark attacks on people.
D．To show that humans are much stronger than sharks.

In the 13th century, the Italian traveler, Marco polo , traveled a long way to China , During his stay in China , he saw many wonderful things . One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money . In western countries , people did not use paper money until the 15th century . However , people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century .
A Chinese man called CaiLun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. He made it from wood . He took the wood from trees and made it into paper . He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book .
Now paper still comes from trees . We use a lot of paper every day ! If we keep on wasting so much paper , there will not be any trees on the earth . If there are no trees , there will be no paper . Every day , people throw away about 2800 tons (噸) of paper in our city . It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper . This means that we are cutting nearly 48000 trees every day . Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow , we must start using less paper now . If we don’t , we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper .
So how can we save paper ? We can use both sides of every piece of paper , especially when we are making notes .We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets . We can also use cotton handkerchiefs (手帕) and not paper ones . When we go shopping , we can use fewer paper bags . If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later .
Everyone can help to save paper . If we all think carefully , we can help protect trees . But we should do it now , before it is too late .
小題1:When he was in China , Marco polo ___________ .
