Luckily, here are three cool facts about fireflies which are interesting. Fireflies, also called lightning bugs, are neither flies nor bugs. Fireflies are actually beetles(甲虫). Like all other beetles, they have hard forewings called elytra (前翅). They meet in a straight line down the back when at rest. In flight, fireflies hold the elytra out for balance. Fireflies are the world’s most efficient(高效的) light producers. Have you ever touched a light bulb that had been on for a while? If you did, you probably burned your fingers! An average electric light bulb gives off 90% of its energy as heat, and only 10% as light. If fireflies produce that much heat when they light up, they will probably burn up themselves. Fireflies produce light without producing heat energy. All 100% of the energy goes into making light. Fireflies “talks” to each other using light signals. Fireflies don’t put on those beautiful summer displays just to interest us. Male fireflies giving off light are looking for females who may love them. An interested female will reply, helping the male find where she is. ( )31. According to the first paragraph, the writer thinks _________. A. we know little about fireflies B. we don’t like to know anything about fireflies C. fireflies are not wonderful insects D. we only know three facts about fireflies ( )32. Beetles are insects with_______. A. strong bodies B. sharp eyes C. hard forewings D. straight wings ( )33. Elytra helps fireflies _________ during the flight. to see better B. to fly faster C. to keep safe D.to keep balance ( )34. Fireflies will not burn up themselves. Which of the following is TRUE? Their light does not need any energy. B. They produce light without producing heat energy. C. They can’t produce light by themselves. D. They only give off 10% of their energy as light. ( )35. If a female firefly loves the male firefly giving off light, she will_______. A. answer the male’s signals B. fly over to join the male firefly C. hide herself in a low place D. make her light darker than ever B Have you ever imagined being able to visit any foreign country without having to worry about the foreign language? The latest technology can help you. The invention is called the Pilot. It will come into the market in the summer of 2017. The Pilot is so small that it fits comfortably in the ear, just like an earbud(耳塞). The company that invented the Pilot provides a pair of earpieces, one for each user. When either talks, the Pilot in the ear picks up the sound of the speech. And then the speech goes through a smart phone APP that changes it into text, translate it into a spoken form, and at last “whispers” it back to the listener in his or her language. As a result, the user is able to understand the other person even though he/she doesn’t know the speaker’s language at all. The Pilot also keeps out the noise around the users, allowing them to listen to the conversation clearly. When not needed for translation, the Pilot can be used to listen to music. The Pilot smart phone APP can also be used as a translation phrasebook. Like all translators, the Pilot is not perfect, but it is much correcter than most of the translation products that can be bought on the market. At present, the Pilot can only translate one-to-one conversations. Developers hope in the future it will be able to translate many-to-one conversations. They also hope to increase the translation speed. The first version(版本) of the Pilot is only suitable for iOS and Android phones, and it can translate English, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese. It will be possible for the Pilot to translate more languages in the latter(后面的) half of 2017. ( )36. According to the passage, the Pilot or the Pilot APP can’t be used to _________. A. listen to music B. keep out the noise C. make phone calls D. work as a translation phrasebook ( )37. When people are using the Pilot, they should ___________. A. turn on the APP on their phone B. hold their phones in hands C. stand close to each other D. wear at least three earpieces ( )38. How does the Pilot work if an English man is talking to a Spanish woman with it? A. English spoken language →Spanish text B. English spoken language →English text →Spanish spoken language C. English spoken language →Spanish text →English spoken language D. English spoken language →English text →Spanish spoken language →Spanish text ( )39. What is the last paragraph mainly talking about? A. The use of the Pilot. B. The history of the Pilot. C. The development of the Pilot. D. The advantage of the Pilot. ( )40. Where can we find the passage? In a newspaper. B. In a survey report. C. In a storybook. D. In an advertisement. C Emma Watson, 26, brings her childhood Disney character to life. The British actress played the beautiful girl Belle in Disney’s new live-action movie Beauty and the Beast(野兽). She also sang for the role, the first time she has done so in her career. The movie came out in China on March 17. Originally an animation film, it tells how a cursed man-beast is changed into a handsome prince by the love of Belle. To play the lead role in Beauty and the Beast, Watson turned down the offer of La La Land, which won six awards besides the Best Actress at this year’s Oscars. However, she does not regret it. She told Vanity Fair that she believes the movie says something that is important for people to hear. This is not her first time being invited to play a Disney princess. She refused the offer to play Cinderella. But she happily took on Belle because she saw her as a better role model. Belle doesn’t mind Beast’s ugly appearance and sees his good heart within. “She remains curious, compassionate(有同情心) and open-minded,” she told Total Film. “She’s not easily swayed by other people’s ideas.” But to build her own version of Belle, Watson had a hand in shaping the character. She wanted Belle to be busy instead of just playing in the castle all day. So she had the idea of turning Belle into an inventor, like her father. And Belle even made a washing machine herself, though people broke it. She wanted it to free girls from chores(杂务) and allow them to learn how to read. She told Entertainment Weekly that people who broke the washing machine was symbolic(象征的) of people who broke Belle’s spirit and pushed her to become the woman they wanted her to be. ( )41. According to the passage, what does the movie Beauty and the Beast tell us? A. The reason why the beast has an ugly appearance. B. Beauties always fall in love with the ugly beasts easily. C. Belle loves the beast and doesn’t care about his appearance. D. A cursed man-beast is changed into a handsome prince by love. ( )42. Why did Watson play the lead role in Beauty and the Beast? A. Because she refused to play Cinderella. B. Because she had no chance to play in La La land. C. Because she saw Belle as a better role model. D. Because she thought the movie was important for people. ( )43. What does the underlined word “swayed” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. influenced B. kept C. trained D. warned ( )44. Why did people break Belle’s washing machine? A. Because they thought the machine was useless. B. Because they had an idea of turning her into an inventor. C. Because they wanted to push her to be the woman they liked. D. Because they wanted her to be busy instead of playing in the castle. ( )45. Which may be the best title for this passage? A. A Disney’s Princess. B. More than a Beauty. C. Beauty and the Beast. D. A beauty’s love story. 第Ⅱ卷 （非选择题，共60分） B．阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。(共10小题，每小题1分，计10分) If you are going to apply (申请)for a job ,be prepared for the kinds of interviews you can expect .One type of interviews is the telephone interview.
