18.My house is made out of wood,glass and stone.It is also made out of software.
If you come to visit,you'll probably be surprised when you come in.Someone will give you an electronic PIN(個人身份號碼) to wear.This PIN tells the house who and where you are.The house uses this information to give you what you need.When it's dark outside,the PIN turns on the lights nearest to you,and then turns them off as you walk away from them.Music moves with you too.If the house knows your favorite music,it plays it.The music seems to be everywhere,but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music.If you get a telephone call,only the nearest telephone rings.
Of course,you are also able to tell the house if you want something.There is a home control console(控制臺),a small machine that turns things on and off around you.
The PIN and the console are new ideas,but they are in fact like many things we have today.If you want to go to a movie,you need a ticket.If I give you my car keys,you can use my car.The car works for you because you have the keys.My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.
I believe that ten years from now,most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house.The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.
I like to try new ideas.I know that some of my ideas will work better than others.But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new,and ask myself instead,"How will I live without them?"

28.What does the passage mainly discuss?A
A.A home for the future
B.The function of the PIN
C.The development of a new system
D.Easy life in the future
29.What's the purpose of the fourth paragraph?C
A.To let readers know why the ideas are new
B.To let readers know how special the house is
C.To explain the functions of the PIN and the console
D.To explain the importance of the PIN and the console
30.The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly becauseC.
A.you can turn things on and off around you
B.you can make a telephone call anywhere
C.it is controlled by computers
D.it has your favorite music on
31.What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?A
A.An IT expert
B.A famous doctor
C.A gifted musician
D.An experienced teacher.

分析 本文主要介紹了他的房子的兩個主要系統(tǒng)PIN和控制臺,使得房子自動化了的相關(guān)情況.

解答 28.A 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第四段I believe that ten years from now,most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house作者相信十年后的房子就會像作者現(xiàn)在的構(gòu)想一樣,可知本文主要是講作者對未來房子的構(gòu)想,故選A.
29.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第四段第二句The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.系統(tǒng)會比作者現(xiàn)在所放置的更好更強大,可知作者是為了解釋PIN和控制臺系統(tǒng)是多么容易,故選C.
30.C推理判斷題.作者主要介紹了他的房子的兩個主要系統(tǒng)PIN和控制臺,使得房子自動化了,可知作者的房子與眾不同之處就在于電腦控制上,故選C.
31.A 推理判斷題.作者的房子都是電腦控制,全自動化處理,作者極有可能是一個IT專家,故選A

10.With modern technology,much written communication tends to focus on the keyboard,but handwriting is still a necessary and important skill. (36)FHere are some tips for you to improve your handwriting.
Examine Your Handwriting
(37)GLook through your writing to decide what makes it difficult to read or what makes it unattractive.Perhaps you write your letters too small.Check on spacing of letters and words,and proper formation of letters.If your letters are small,put more effort into writing larger letters.If certain letters trip you up,practice those letters separately and within words.
Write Correctly
Positioning and technique play a role in how your handwriting looks.Hold the pen between your thumb and first two fingers so that it rests against your fingers.Hold it firmly enough to control the tip but not so hard that it hurts your fingers.Lighter pressure on the paper helps you create smooth lines and focus on your letter formation. (38)D
(39)ALetters are formed from several basic strokes(筆劃).Practice those strokes separately to get your hand used to forming them.Strokes found in letters include vertical lines,horizontal lines,and circles.Build on those to practice specific letters.
Write for a Purpose
Teach young children handwriting in meaningful contexts.Use that same idea by picking up a pen to write lists and notes by hand instead of typing.Keep a journal daily with slow,correct strokes. (40)EThese true and sincere writing opportunities make the practice meaningful.

A.Build on Basics.
B.Practice makes perfect
C.Focus on improving your correctness instead of speed
D.Writing at a slower speed also helps you focus on letter formation
E.Put a handwritten letter in the mail to surprise a friend or a relative
F.Handwriting requires your brain,eyes and hands to work together to form letters.
G.Before you can improve your handwriting,you need to know where you're falling apart.

7.What is big data exactly?Good question.After all,we've always had large amounts of data.As Laurie Miles,head,of analytics for big data specialist SAS,says,"The term big data has been around for decades and we've been,doing analytics all the time.It's not big; it's just bigger."Most traditional data was structured,or neatly organized in databases.Then the world went digital and the Internet came along.Most of what we1 do could be translated into data capable of being recorded,stored,searched,and analyzed.There was also so-called unstructured data generated by all our digital interactions (互動),from emails to online'shopping,text messages to tweets,and Facebook updates to YouTube video's.
Some say that about 90% of all the data in the world today has been created in the past few years."About 75% of data is unstructured,coming from sources such as text voice and video,"says Mr Miles.
"Big data is not just historic business intelligence,''says Mr,Miles."It's the addition of real-time data and the ability to combine together several data sets that makes it so valuable."Practically,anyone who makes,grows and sells anything Can use big data analytics to make their manufacturing and production processes more efficient arid their marketing more targeted and cost-effective.
And many businesses are only just beginning to realize that data is something that they need to protect and use."Banks only use a third of their available data because it often sits in databases that are hard to access,"says Mr Miles,"We need to find ways to make this data more easily accessible."
Who owns it all?Social media platforms will often,say that their users own their own content,but then lay claim to how that content is used,reserving the right to share it with third parties!So when you tweet you effectively give up any control over how that tweet is used in future,even though Twitter terms and conditions say,"What's yours is yours."Privacy (隱私) and intellectual property1 laws have not kept up with the pace of technological change.

32.According to the first paragraph,big dataD.
A.is also called modern data                         
B.means we don't have enough data
C.gets its name from a research institute        
D.has been researched for many years
33.What contributes greatly to the development of unstructured data?B
A.The increasing number of databases.
B.Our increasing exposure to digital activities.
C.A great decrease in structured data.
D.The lack of people who can translate data.
34.What is the third paragraph mainly about?B
A.The future of big data.
B.The value of big data.
C.The protection of big data.
D.The problems of big data.
35.Why do banks only use a small part of their data?D
A.Because it has different resources.
B.Because the speed is too slow.
C.Because the cost is very high.
D.Because it is difficult to obtain.
