He said the rental scheme was "pssible" but admitted there were sme "technical barriers", ne f which is the cmplexity f sme Leg kits (配套元件), many f which cntain thusands f pieces.
"What are the chances f giving them t an eight-year-ld child and getting them all back again?" Mr Brks added. "There is a lt f technical thinking that needs t be dne.

A small grup f peple arund the wrld have started implanting(移植) micrchips t link the bdy and the cmputer.
Mr. Dnelsn and three friends, wh had driven 100 miles frm their hmes in Lckprt, New Yrk, t have the implants put in by Dr. Jesse Villemaire, whm they had persuaded t d the wrk, are part f a small grup, abut 30 peple arund the wrld, wh have independently put in micrchips int their bdies, accrding t Web-based reprts.
At a shp William Dnelsn was having a fur-millimeter-wide needle put int his left hand. “I'm set,〞he said with a deep breath. He watched as the needle pierced(刺穿) the fleshy webbing between his thumb and a micrchip was set under his skin. At last he wuld be able t d what he had lng imagined: strengthen his bdy's pwers thrugh technlgy.
By putting the chip inside—a radi frequency identificatin device (RFID)—Mr. Dnelsn wuld have at his fingertips the same magic that makes safety gates pen with a knck f a card, and bridge and tunnel traffic flw smthly with an E-Zpass. With a wave f his hand he plans t cnnect with his cmputer, pen drs and unlck his car.
Implanting the chip was relatively simple task but very meaningful t Mr. Dneselsn, a 21-year-ld cmputer netwrking student s interested in the link between technlgy and the bdy that he has data-input jacks(数据输入插空) inside his bdy. They might lead t an imagined future when peple can be cnnected directly int cmputers. His new chip is enclsed in a glass cntainer n bigger than a piece f rice and has a small memry where he has stred the wrds “Technlgy〞.
Sme dctrs have dne the piercing in peple's hmes, and thers have implanted chips in their ffices after patients signed frms shwing the fact that lng-term studies have nt been dne n their safety. Piercers treat the implants much like any ther medical peratin steps, instructing peple t keep the site dry, and advising them that swelling and redness shuld last a week.
根据短文内容，选择最正确答案，并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

Even if trees cannt walk, they are still n the mve.
In parts f the Arctic, entire frests are mving nrthward. Acrss the Arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the wrld. As that happens, the tree line that marks where frests stp and the treeless tundra(冻土地带) starts has been shifting nrthward. Trees grwing alng the tree line must prtect themselves frm the cld wind. T d this, plants tend t grw hrizntal(水平的) branches lw t the grund. The energy it takes fr trees t grw this way means they dn't have enugh energy t make seeds.
But as Earth's climate has been warming, trees n lnger have t just grw hrizntally. Many can instead grw up tward the sky. This takes less energy. And with all the leftver energy. these trees have started prducing mre seeds. This happens especially in places where the white spruce(白云杉) grws.
White spruce, which is a Nrth American tree, is quite able t prduce a lt f seeds, which can mve lng distances in the wind. When wind-blwn seeds end up n the tundra beynd the tree line, they eventually can sprut(发芽) new trees. This explains hw a frest can mve. Of curse, the prcess wuld wrk nly if the tundra were warm enugh. But in recent years, the whle planet has been warming.
New trees will prvide shelters fr sme snw, keeping the sun's rays frm making the white surface disappear. Instead, the trees absrb the sun's heat. This warms the surrunding air. The extra warmth encurages even mre trees t prduce seeds. That further bsts a frest's ability t expand. In additin, mre trees will trap mre snw, preventing much f it frm being blwn away. Snw can trap heat in the sil belw, which encurages trees t grw. The recent rise f temperature has helped mre trees grw. The recent rise f temperatures has helped mre trees grw past the tree line. Peple wrry abut impacts n the animals that depend n frzen cnditins fr fd and shelter.
〔1〕What is the main cause f the trees in the Arctic mving nrthward?
A.The rising temperature.
B.The shrinking f nrthern tundra.
C.The fierce and cld wind.
D.The abundant resurces in the nrth.
〔2〕What des the underlined wrd“this〞in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.T prduce mre seeds.
B.T mve nrthward.
C.T respnd t the climate change.
D.T prtect themselves frm the cld wind.
〔3〕What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A.New trees can trap the snw, which may make the sil clder.
B.The trapped snw prevents new trees frm prducing mre seeds.
C.New trees can make the surrunding air warmer.
D.New trees can bring mre fd and shelter fr lcal animals.
〔4〕The passage is mst prbably taken frm _______.
A.a health reprt
B.a science reprt

Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and cnservative persn wh is 1 nly amng thse with whm he is familiar. When a stranger is present, he ften seems nervus, 2 embarrassed. Yu have t take a cmmuter train any mrning r evening t witness the truth f this. Serius-lking businessmen and wmen sit reading their newspapers r 3 ff in a crner; hardly anybdy talks, since t d s wuld be cnsidered quite ffensive.
4 , there is an unwritten but clearly understd cde f behavir, which, nce 5 , makes the ffender immediately the bject f criticism.
One f the few things we can say abut the British with certainty is that a British 6 the discussin f their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk abut it 7 . Sme peple argue that it is because the British weather 8 fllws frecast and thus becmes a surce f interest t everyne. This may be s. Certainly a British cannt have much faith in the weathermen, whse predictins, in many cases, 9 t be wrng! The man in the street seems t be as accurate (准确的) — r as inaccurate —as the weathermen in his 10 .Freigners may be surprised at the number f references 11 weather that the British make t each ther in the curse f a single day. Very ften cnversatinal greetings are 12 by cmments n the weather. "Nice day, isn't it?" "Beautiful day!" may well be heard instead f "Gd mrning, hw are yu?" 13 the freigner may cnsider this exaggerated (夸大)and cmic, it is wrthwhile pinting ut that it culd be used t his advantage. If he wants t start a cnversatin with a British but is at a lss t knw where t begin, he culd d well t mentin the state f the weather. It is a(n) 14 subject t which a respnse may well be 15 f even the mst reserved f the British.

四、语法填空〔共10小题；每题1.5分，总分值15分)
7.【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了有关“筷子〞的历史和文化。
〔1〕考查时态语态。句意：他们在中国古代被称为“朱〞。主语和谓语之间是被动关系，又因为本句讲述的是过去的事情，故填were called。
〔2〕考查定语从句。句意：木筷或竹筷是中国家庭使用最普遍的筷子，比象牙筷要早1000年左右。根据句子结构可知，该空是非限制性定语从句的关系词，关系词在定语从句中作主语，指物，故填which。
〔3〕考查副词。句意：木筷或竹筷是中国家庭使用最普遍的筷子，比象牙筷要早1000年左右。根据本句中的than，此空填形容词的比拟级，故填earlier。
〔4〕考查非谓语动词。句意：使用筷子时有几件事要防止。t avid是后置定语，修饰a few things。故填t avid。
〔5〕考查非谓语动词。句意：吃饭时不要敲碗，因为这种行为过去是乞丐常做的。eat和主句主语peple在逻辑上存在主动关系，故填eating。
〔6〕考查代词。句意：在中国，每个人都用自己的筷子从桌上的盘子里取食物是很常见的。It is cmmn fr sb. t d sth.句型，此空为句首，故填It。
〔7〕考查名词。句意：在中国，每个人都用自己的筷子从桌上的盘子里取食物是很常见的。餐桌上的菜肴不止一种，故用复数形式，填dishes。
〔8〕考查时态。句意：如果您愿意，我们会提供筷子。主语和谓语之间是被动关系，结合语境，如果你愿意，我们会提供筷子可以是通常性的动作，也可以是将来某一时间的动作，翻译为“如果您愿意，我们将会提供筷子。〞。if引导的条件状语从句，主句将来时，从句一般现在时。故填is/will be。
〔9〕考查副词。句意：另外，不要因为筷子使用不当而感到为难。副词修饰动词，故填prly。
〔10〕考查介词。句意：在中国文化中，食物是非常重要的，而中国人是一个非常务实的民族，无论你用什么方法吃饭，你周围的人都会很友好。be f great imprtance = be imprtant固定短语，“重要的〞，故填f。

五、短文改错〔共10小题；每题1分，总分值10分〕
8.【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者介绍了自己最喜欢的科学家托马斯·爱迪生，并且希望自己成为一个有价值的人。
①考查冠词。句意：托马斯·爱迪生出生于美国，他是一位伟大的科学家和创造家。这里“科学家和创造家〞指的都是托马斯·爱迪生，inventr之前的冠词多余，故答案为去掉inventr之前的an。
②考查定语从句。whm was nt wrth educating.是一个定语从句，修饰先行词a by，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，用wh或that引导该从句，故答案为whm改成wh/that。
③考查名词。介词f之后，需要接名词作宾语，故答案为imagine改成imaginatin。
④考查介词。because后面接句子，而because f 后面接成分，这里接了一个成分，故答案为because后面加f。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意：据说他有1000多项创造。be said t d 固定短语，"据说"，故答案为having改成have。
⑥考查宾语从句。句意：在他的一生中，他总是渴望知道万物是如何运作的。这里含有一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中表示“怎样，如何〞的意思，用hw引导该从句，故答案为what改成hw。
⑦考查时态。句意：他也很勤奋，夜以继日的工作。根据He was als very diligent可知描述发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，故答案为wrks改成wrked。
⑧考查固定用法。s much用于修饰不可数名词，s many用于修饰可数名词，这里inventins是可数名词，故答案为much改成many。
⑨考查副词。修饰动词achieved，用副词，故答案为easy改成easily。
⑩考查代词。句意：也许我自己不能成为另一个爱迪生，但我会努力成为一个有价值的人。这里指“我自己〞，故答案为himself改成myself。
【点评】此题考点涉及冠词，定语从句，名词，介词，非谓语动词，宾语从句，时态，副词以及代词等多个知识点的考查，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。
