What do you think of the life without the computer Well, do you know that without two of Bill Gates' high schoolteachers, we could live a life like that today. Gates' math teacher, Fred Wright, asked him to push himself just a little bit harder. And his drama teacher, Anne Stephens helped him become the star of the school play. Gates thanked his teachers without them, there would be no Microsoft.
Teachers are important. They can make or break a class. A great teacher can make a boring subject interesting while(然而)an exciting subject can be killed by a teacher who isn't good at teaching.

Yesterday, I read a report on fruit-picking robots. As I heard about the pricey robotic arms of these machines, I was filled with something like sadness. Our children and grandchildren, I'm
afraid, will not be able to understand how our food is grown. Nor will they be able to experience the fun of fruit-picking.
I once spent a few weeks on a farm in New Zealand. There, I met about 50 apple-pickers from Vanuatu. At night, we listened to pop music and washed our clothes as they told me about their experiences of picking pineapples and peaches. Life on the farm was hard. The rooms were small and dark. There was nothing in them but a kettle(水壶)and a shower. However, the trip left me with many fond memories.
When my son was little, I used to cycle him half an hour out of town to a farm every few weeks. There, we could pick strawberries. He loved it. He was excited about the smell of the plants, the feel of the soil and the art of guessing which piece of fruit had the potential to be the most delicious. And he saw where our fruit came from. I wanted him to understand the effort and energy during the process of producing food.
Doorstep deliveries and washed and sliced(切好的)salad vegetables have already started to destroy our understanding of how our food is grown and what it looks like. Robotic fruit-pickers, I fear, will be just another step in this direction. I'm afraid that we are making the whole act of eating a hands-off experience. Where is, then, the fun of it
6. What is the report in Paragraph 1 about
A. Robots used to pick fruit. B. The fun of growing food.
C. The cost of making robots. D. Children working on a farm.
7. How did the writer feel about the trip in New Zealand
A. Terrible. B. Unforgettable. C. Regretful. D. Disappointed.
8. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Cutting fruit. B. Smelling the soil.
C. Cycling in the town. D. Picking strawberries.
9. Why did the writer take her son to a farm
A. To show him how to plant. B. To teach him to choose the best fruit.
C. To help farmers with their fruit picking. D. To make him know the effort of production.
10. What is the structure of the passage
A. ①//②③//④ B. ①//②③④ C. ①②③//④ D. ①②//③//④

五、读写综合。
(一)阅读并回答问题。(共5小题, 每小题2分, 计10分)
Without proper planning, tourism(旅游业)can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can make the public places crowded, which are also enjoyed by the local people. If tourists cause too much traffic, the local people will feel unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and treat them impolitely. But they forget how much tourism can help the local economy. It is important to think about how tourism affects the local people. The local customs and beauty should be kept to attract the tourists by the local government. The local government should also care about the health and happiness of the local people when developing tourism.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people can leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry because they can make more money there. As a result, other parts of the local economy can become worse.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs, and businesses can also lose money. It costs much money to build large hotels, airports, first-class roads, and other support facilities(设施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, each room of the first-class tourism hotel usually costs about 50 thousand dollars. If the rooms of the hotel aren't used most of the time, the owner of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity and so on. All of these support facilities cost money.
If these facilities are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
回答下面5个问题, 每题答案不超过7个单词。
1. How will the local people feel if tourists cause too much traffic
2. Is developing tourism helpful for the local economy
3. What should be kept by the local government to attract tourists

5. How much does it usually need to build a first-class hotel room

Mobile payment changes our life
More recently, mobile payment is liked by many people. It is becoming more and more popular in China. It has made people's daily lives very convenient. Most of us are used to paying by scanning QR codes. By mobile payment, we can pay easily and quickly wherever we go. We can have dinner in a restaurant and pay by scanning QR codes with our mobile phones. In a cinema, we can buy our tickets in the same way. Mobile payment is changing our life.
However, we should spend money wisely. First of all, think twice about what we want to buy. Next, learn to save and buy what we can afford. Last but not least, spend on what we really need. Don't buy everything we want.
