A new contact lens（隐形眼镜片）has been developed by scientists from America，Britain and China.It can check for illnesses at any time by examining chemicals in tears.A new sensor（感应器）is used to achieve his purpose.
Scientists hope that the improvement could help to deal with sudden medical events.Dr.Zhao Yunlong said， "COVID﹣19 has had a great influence on the scientific world.And we are doing research to help people deal with similar events in the future."
When introducing the new contact lens，Dr.Guo Shiqi，a researcher at Harvard，said，"In the past，the sensor was put between the layers（层）of the lens.It didn't have direct contact（接触）with tears，But our new sensor is smaller and smarter.I t can be fixed to a lens and keep direct contact with tears.What's more，it causes no discomfort to the eye.
The contact lens has not been put to the market，but researchers are quite sure that it will be welcomed.It is especially useful for the old and those who may experience sudden medical events.
As society develops，scientists are supposed to develop more products that provide care and convenience（便利）for people.The contact lens is one of what they are researching on.Earlier，a California company developed another kind of contact lens using LED technology.It can show the heath information on the mobile phone.Steve Sinclair，head of the company，said， "We have to build something that helps you when you need it and stays of when you don't need it."

Historically，most cars have run on gasoline（汽油），but that may change in the future：cars can also run on other liquid fuels（液体燃料）and electricity.
Gasoline is from oil.The energy in gasoline comes from hydrocarbons（碳氢化合物）.Gasoline provides great power for cars.However，it causes environmental problems，like air pollution and temperature rise.So gasoline can't be the best fuel.
Another choice is electricity.Electricity cars can be as efficient（效能好的）as cars using gasoline，And they produce less pollution.But electric cars themselves are more expensive.Good news is that the cost has been lower and there are more and more places for the cars to get electricity ever since 2010.
The other choices are other liquid fuels.Many of these can be stored in the same places as gasoline，and used in the same cars.They can also be friendly to the environment.
One way to make such fuels is to get CO 2from the air and put it in water.Through chemical reaction，hydrocarbons can be created.However，these fuels take up more space.
Another way is to make such fuels from plants which take in carbon from the air.These fuels are greener in use.But not all of them can be as efficient as gasoline.
For a fuel to be the best，people have to be able to afford it.Unluckily，almost every green technology is more expensive than that of using gasoline.Governments and car producers are doing everything they car to cut down the costs.In the end，the best fuel will be both affordable for car users and green for our planet.

Visiting outer space is still a far dream for anyone who isn't an astronaut，but a day trip to the stars is already open for people to order!
A new company （公司），Space Perspective，is planning tests with passengers.It has big plans to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024.If successful，reaching the outer side of space could be as easy as flying abroad in a few years' time.The plan will be for spacemen and up to eight passengers to travel in Neptune，a capsule （太空舱）tied to a balloon the size of a football field.
They will move slowly upwards right to the side of space，30 km away from the Earth.There，space tourists will be able to look back at the Earth and out to dark space and the sight of millions of stars.Although the price is yet to be fixed，the expensive flight，which will take six hours，is likely to cost over £100 000.Because the capsule remains within the Earth's atmosphere （大气层），no special clothing or training are needed.It means that older people or those with health problems will be included.
One problem may be the method of landing back on the Earth.The balloon moves back down from space until it falls down in the sea.Passengers，spacemen，capsule and balloon are then gotten back by ship.
Now Neptune faces competition from the Stratollite a balloon being developed by a company called World View Enterprises，while the super rich Richard Branson，Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk are all pouring money into developing business space flying machines.The advantage of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.
Space travel may soon be a reality （现实），but how visitors get there is still a very open question.

The natural world is colorful with humans，plants and animals showing different colors.
Human skin can be many different colors and it changes.with the sun，our feelings or our health for example.This is because of pigments（色素），which reflect light and make what the eye sees as colors.So，when we feel excited or angry，our heart can send more blood to the face and the pigments in the skin become red.This is why we have the expression that someone. "sees red"when they are angry.
Plants also have pigments.Color is important for them to live on.The bright colors of flowers catch the attention of insects（昆虫），which then carry their pollen（花粉）from one flower to another.Bees can see colors we cannot，and they follow these to the inside of the flower.Without bees visiting flowers in this way，many plants would die out.
Animals also use color for their own need.They protect themselves with different colors so as not to be seen by predators.The snowshoe hare for example，a type of wild rabbit，changes color with seasons for this reason.During summer it is a brown color，and in winter it is white so that it can hide in the snow.However，some animals use color as a warning to make predators stay away.Bright colors such as yellow and red are often used in this way.Nature，however，is very clever，and predators also use colors to attract（吸引）the animals they feed on..
So，we can see that there may be many different reasons and uses for colors in the natural world.Some uses of color in nature remain unknown；but one thing is for sure，color not only makes our planet beautiful but it is also necessary for our planet to live on.
（1）Paragraph 2 mainly tells us that is/are the cause that makes human skin change color.
A.feelings
B.pigments
C.Blood
D.sunshine
（2）According to Paragraph 3，plants can use to attract insects.
A.leaves
B.fruits
C.pollen
D.color
（3）The underlined word"predators""in Paragraph 4 refers to animals which .
A.hide in secret places
B.kill other animals for food
C.change color with the sun
D.protect themselves from danger
（4）What is the main purpose of the passage？
A.To describe animals' ways of life.
B.To encourage us to study color in nature.
C.To introduce the uses of colors for life on earth.
D.To explain the importance of protecting our planet.
A vegetarian（素食者）is someone who does not eat meat.Being a vegetarian has become a popular choice.In fact,l in every 200 kids in the US is a vegetarian.Most people choose to be vegetarians for many reasons.
First,they believe that a vegetarian diet（饮食）is good for health.It usually has less fat （脂肪）than a diet that includes meat.Vegetarians eat a low﹣fat diet to stay fit and healthy.A vegetarian diet also provides many vitamins（维生素）that people can't get from meat.These vitamins protect people from some diseases.
Second,many vegetarians are worried about how animals are raised and killed for food.They hope animals can be better treated.
Finally,they think being a vegetarian can help the planet.People use more energy,water and land to raise animals for food than to grow fruit and vegetables.Also animals put greenhouse gases（温室气体）into the air.These gases cause global warming（全球变暖）.
Vegetarians advise people to have just a couple of vegetarian meals a week to make the world a better place,
（1）In fact,1 in in the US is a vegetarian.
（2）Vegetarians eat a low﹣fat diet to stay .
（3）Many vegetarians are worried about .
（4）People use to raise animals for food than to grow fruit and vegetables.
（5）Vegetarians advise people to a week.

Big data（数据）is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program.It can have different kinds of information from many sources（来源），such as information that comes from schools，social media sites，companies，and governments. （2） Another set can have what they like，where they go to school，and how much time they spend on the computer.
（3） The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains.The information is then used to make bus or train systems better.Companies use big data，too.It helps them understand who buys their products.For example，one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice﹣cream.
Big data can be used for good reasons.Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick.The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. （4） It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others，even if they have not done anything wrong.
（5） It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people.People think a certain way.Because they think a certain way，they build a model of those ideas.These ideas are then used to look at the data.Sometimes，these ideas are helpful for people or businesses.Other times，bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.
| A． |
Big data can be used in many ways. |
| B． |
Why do we use big data for bad things？ |
| C． |
Big data can also be used for bad reasons. |
| D． |
How can big data be used for good and bad things？ |
| E． |
One set of data can have people's names and addresses. |
| F． |
In fact，this magic，mind﹣reading power depends on data. |
DNA is the whole"map" of the human body.It is something that all humans have，and it tells the body what to do.DNA is the reason that we look like our parents，because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.In 1860，Mr Mendel discovered why we look similar to other people in our family.It is because of small things called "genes（基因）"in our body.In 1953，two scientists，Watson and Crick，found out that those small parts are real messages.They are written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961，another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language.It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞） to build its parts.So far，scientists have found all the words in the DNA map，but we do not understand what they all do.By understanding what just one "word" means，we can help to save people from several illnesses.So the more we understand ，the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine to help sick people，Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information，we will use it in the wrong way，just to make people more attractive（有吸引力的）or stop sick people getting jobs.
（1）Who discovered why we look like other people in our family in 1860？
A.Crick.
B.Watson.
C.Mr.Harris.
D.Mr.Mendel

D.It can be good and bad.
The invention of barcodes（条形码）is based on a very simple idea.We only need to give each product a specific number and print it. （1） We could simply print the number itself.But this can cause problems.For example，an unclearly printed "seven" could look like a "one" to a computer.It's also true for "three" and "eight". （2） We need a better way of printing numbers so that they can be read correctly at high speeds.That's the problem barcodes solve.
Each number in a barcode is shown by seven blocks of the same size. （3） For example，the number "one" is shown in turn by two white stripes（条），two black stripes，two white stripes，and one black stripe.（4）
A barcode includes different parts and each one provides a specific meaning.The first part of a barcode tells you the country where the product was made.For example，690—692 is the barcode for China. （5） .The final part is about the product itself.This is how barcodes work.
A.Then computers can read it directly. B.All information can be shown by barcodes. C.The next part tells you who produced the product. D.And "nine" looks similar to "six" if you turn it upside down. E.Even if you turn it upside down，it isn't similar to any other number. F.These are colored either black or white to show the number zero to nine. |
Do you know what a resolution is？It's a kind of promise.Most of the time，we make promises to other people （"Mom，I promise I'm going to tidy my room when I get back from school."） However，promises you make to yourself are resolutions，and the most common kind is New Year's resolutions.The start of the year is often a time for making resolutions，When we make resolutions at the beginning of the year，we hope that we are going to improve our lives.Some people write down their resolutions and plans for the coming year.This helps them to remember their resolutions.Others tell their family and friends about their wishes and plans.
There are different kinds of resolutions.Some are about physical health.For example，some people promise themselves they are going to start an exercise program or eat less fast food.Many resolutions have to do with self﹣improvement.These are about making yourself a better person.Some people might say they are going to take up a hobby like painting or taking photos，or learn to play the guitar.Some resolutions have to do with better planning，like making a weekly plan for schoolwork.For example，a student may have to find more time to study.
Although there are differences，most resolutions have one thing in common.People hardly ever keep them!There are good reasons for this.Sometimes the resolutions may be too difficult to keep.Sometimes people just forget about them.For this reason，some people say the best resolution is to have no resolutions!How about you﹣will you make any next year？

Chemistry is about the smallest things that other bigger things are made of，and what happens when theychange.The word chemistry comes from chemical，which is an example of one type of the very small things that other bigger things are made of.The words you are reading now are made of a dark liquid called ink （墨水），which is written on paper.The paper itself is made out of the chemicals that wood is made out of.Both the ink and the paper were made by different chemical processes.A chemical process is what happens when chemicals come together to make other chemicals，and therefore other things.
Cooking makes chemical changes.Your different ingredients are made of different chemicals，and when you put them together and make them hot and cook them，the chemicals change into new chemicals and the different ingredients make something new.That tomato sauce you're making is made of tomatoes，onions，garlic，salt and pepper.Those ingredients each have their own chemicals and their own flavors，but now with your sauce you've made something different，something that has its own flavor，all the ingredients mixed together，all the chemicals mixed together，something new.
You can smell the chemical changes，too，as they go up into your nose，especially when you forget about your sauce and it doesn't just cook but bums and becomes black and has a really bad flavor.You can't make it better，either，because once chemicals change，they can't be changed back again.

Think about what you like to wear on the weekend.There's a good chance that you like to put on a pair of blue jeans.At any moment，about half of the world's population is wearing jeans.But according to a new study，our love for jeans may be bad for Earth.Denim （牛仔布）might be putting some sea animals in danger.
Every time we wash our jeans，tiny bits of denim will flow out of our washing machines，down into the world's rivers，lakes and oceans.
You might wonder：Isn't denim made of cotton，a natural material？How can it become a danger to nature？Well，in the process of making jeans，denim is treated with many types of man﹣made chemicals.Some improve its durability （耐用性）and feel；others give jeans their blue color.
Scientists studied the Great Lakes in America and the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada.They found denim waste in all of the samples （样本）they had collected.It is feared that the harmful chemicals in denim have spread far and wide.Scientists aren't yet sure how these chemicals might harm animals.
In the study，the scientists also washed jeans to see how many bits of denim each pair would drop per wash.The answer was frightening：About 50，000.Not all of them make their way into the environment.Wastewater treatment plants hold back 83 to 99 percent of them.This may sound pretty good.However，one percent of 50，000 bits are still 500 per wash.Now think about the number of jeans around the world and the times each of them gets washed.As a result，a large amount of denim waste still gets into the environment.
Does this mean we shouldn't wear jeans？Probably not" We need to buy fewer jeans and only wash them when we truly need to do it，" says Sam Athey，one of the scientists. " You don't need to wash your jeans after having worn them only a couple of times. "

| A． |
It might do harm to some sea animals. |
| B． |
It has no influence on sea animals. |
| C． |
It is good to all the sea animals. |

②To improve denim's durability and feel.
③To make jeans blue.
| A． |
①② |
| B． |
①③ |
| C． |
②③ |
（3）How many bits of denim might get into the environment every year？
| A． |
Five hundred. |
| B． |
Fifty thousand. |
| C． |
Too many to count. |
（4）What should we do according to Sam Athey's words？
| A． |
We are not supposed to wear jeans. |
| B． |
We need to wash our jeans every day. |
| C． |
We should buy fewer jeans and wash them fewer times. |
Whether from news reports or social media articles，you may know that 5G is coming.
5G is the 5th generation network.It is a new network after 1G，2G，3G and 4G.It can connect everyone and everything together.5G networks will cover many cities in China soon.5G means super﹣fast data speed.One can download a two ﹣ hour movie for fewer than 10 seconds，and it is making our lives more and more convenient.
5G will make self﹣driving cars possible.For safety，self﹣driving cars need super﹣fast data transmission（传输）to communicate with their nearby environment.5 G is just what makes self﹣driving cars achieve this.Even airplanes will become "smart" in the near future.Passengers will be able to use 5G networks in the air to connect to the Internet and can order for food and drinks.
5G will be a big help for students who take online classes.Many people live in poor areas in the world where there are no schools.But with 5G，this will change.Students all over the world will be able to see places like the Great Wall without leaving their rooms.
It will be also easier for doctors to treat patients remotelyby 5G.It means caring for patients from far away.
The facts listed above are only a part of what 5G will make possible and popular.Just as in the early days of the Internet in the 1990s，few could see how it could change our life and the world.The same will surely be true of 5G.With 5G，many things do not seem like dreams anymore.Now let's get ready to say goodbye to 4G and welcome the coming of 5G.

Parents are often surprised at their children's ability to use technology.A five﹣year﹣old child may easily find and use apps on a smart phone.A ten﹣year﹣old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily.Their parents may think their children were born geniuses （天才）！
Natural geniuses，however，are not common.But your parents are right if they think you are smarter than them.Most children are born smarter than their parents.This has been proved（证明）on IQ tests around the world recently.These tests have shown that over the last 100 years，each new generation （一代人）has become smarter than the older ones.In other words，you are smarter than your parents and your parents are smarter than your grandparents.
This increase in intelligence is called the "Flynn Effect（效应）".It was named after James Flynn.Flynn is a university professor （教授）in New Zealand.He first noticed this in 1980.According to his research，with each new generation，average （平均的）IQ scores would increase by twenty percent.
But why are people getting smarter？Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology.New technologies have further developed our brains.They have made us think better.So we may be better at completing the missing parts of a puzzlethan our parents.
But being smart doesn't make you wise.Wisdom （智慧）comes with age and experience.A high score on a computer game will not help you solve the everyday problems of life.For that，a smart kid will turn to the wisdom of his parents and grandparents.
