Are you searching for the latest device as a gift? Here, we offer a guide that will help you take a closer look at four of tech’s hottest categories.

Virtual reality

Virtual reality (VR), the most exciting tech development of recent times, has arrived. The Sony VR doesn’t require expensive phone and there are some devices you can purchase to enhance the experience. But if you’ve already got a PS4, you can enter the world of VR for just $400 (2780 yuan).

Wireless headphones

Combining ease of use with the ability to move around without limit, wireless headphones just make sense. The Bose QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones are worth a test drive. The headphones feature active noise cancellation. They can be easily purchased for less than $400 online.

Digital cameras

While your phone has more functions, there’s no substitute（替代品）for a real camera. As small as your smartphone, the smooth design of the Fujifilm X70, $699 (4850 yuan), makes it the perfect companion. In China, Xiaomi’s mirrorless Yi M1 offers a more affordable option, available for just 2199 yuan.

Smartwatches

Watches, thanks to the mobile phone, were becoming unnecessary. Now the pursuit for fitness has helped the watch industry push forward. FitBit has been a leader in the sporty wearable field, and its new swim-proof Fitbit Flex 2 ($130) represents the best in the way of today’s fitness bands.

1. With a budget of $300, which of the following can you buy?

China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors --- silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.

It’s fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks. Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.

Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.

My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn’t want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.

I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.

4. According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?

A. Because they are traditional and safe.

B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.

C. Because they are colorful and available.

D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.

5. The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended __________.

A. to ride it for fun B. to use it for transport

C. to experience local culture D. to improve his riding skills

6. How did the author feel about his street crossing？

A. It was boring. B. It was difficult.

C. It was lively. D. It was wonderful.

7. Which of the following best describes the author’s biking experience

A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.

B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.

C. The author was praised by the other bikers.

D. The author took great pleasure in biking.

【4~7题答案】

【答案】4. B5. C6. B7. D

C

“This material is called xiangyunsha,” said Song Fei, while she introduced a traditional cheongsam(旗袍) to customers in a flagship shop. “Dyed with pure plant extracts (提取物) and unpolluted river mud, the time-honored silk cloth is named ‘soft gold’ in the textile (纺织的) industry.”

To everyone’s surprise, the knowledgeable Song, who has unbelievable insights into cheongsam, a body-hugging one-piece Chinese dress for women, has practiced law for 10 years in Chengdu City. In 2017, she traveled to Suzhou to learn design and handicraft skills of cheongsam and traditional costumes, becoming a cheongsam designer.

At first, Song’s family and friends were not optimistic about her choice to switch from a distinguished career to an artistic field. Knowing little about clothing, Song met with a huge challenge. “The pain was unthinkable, but since I had chosen that profession, I had to stick to it. I want a career that I truly enjoy,” said Song.

Song returned to Chengdu with new skills and creative passion in 2019 and founded her design brand. “To be honest, compared with my previous job, this one is harder and leaves me with much greater financial pressure. But my sense of satisfaction is beyond comparison when my works are recognized and appreciated,” said Song.

“Traditional cheongsams are one-piece tailored dresses of Chinese origin that require making with natural materials by hand. However, modern cheongsams are often made with artificial materials and produced by machine,” Song said. “In the face of rapid social and economic changes, traditional cheongsams are receiving less attention due to the popularity of mass-produced cheongsams.”

To save the beauty of traditional culture, Song wants to blend people’s daily lives with time-honored handicrafts, believing that traditional culture should not be the zone of museums. She aims to pass on traditional Chinese culture, which is a meaningful type of work with social responsibilities.

8. Where did Song probably work in the past?

A. In a design room for costumes. B. At an office of legal affairs.

C. In a museum of traditional culture. D. At a flagship shop of cheongsams.

9. What made Song change her job?

AGreat financial pressure. B. Persuasion from family and friends.

C. Unthinkable pain from the former job. D. Love for traditional costumes.

10. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?

A. The future development of cheongsams.

B. The main producing process of cheongsams.

C. The difference between traditional and modern cheongsams.

D. The original materials of traditional and modern cheongsams.

11. Which of the following can best replace the word “blend” in paragraph 6?

A. Combine. B. Present. C. Compare. D. Exchange.

My granddad often helped me make a tool to catch fish when I was young and we would spend hours along a river. It was lovely for both of us then. Many more of today’s grandparents have a growing sense of adventure. And a trend is catching on: skip-gen travel — grandparents taking fun-filled vacations with grand kids without their parents along.

A survey found that 83% of grandparents put travel with their grand kids as the number one thing when they retire. Skip-gen travel gets popular for good reason. Kids have their lives enriched and learn outside classrooms. This is also a time of talking and sharing ideas.

“How grandparents talk to children is different from how parents talk to them. Actually I feel on a more equal footing with my grandchildren than I do with my own children,” Annie Collins, a travel architect and also part of the trend, says. “Kids away from their parents are more open to ideas and willing to express themselves. It’s not just kids gaining from traveling. Who gets the most out of this? You might think it’s them but it’s us.” According to a study by the Cleveland Clinic, grandparents who help watch and spend time with grand kids may actually live longer than their peers（同龄人）.

It’s also important to recognize that grandparents often have more time to travel. Unlike their children, who may still be in the pursuit of a personal career that offers limited time off, grandparents are often retired and likely have a different viewpoint on life, prioritizing experiences and family. So knowing the kids are in great hands, moms and dads will have a bit of time to themselves — some much-needed leisure time alone to rest and recharge their batteries.

However, skip-gen travel is not for every grandparent. After all, grandparents are worn out with years and not so energetic. They surely treasure the chance to form close ties with their grandchildren, but it’s wiser to say no when only the youth could enjoy themselves, for the travel should be a win for everyone involved.

12. Why does the author mention fishing experiences with his granddad?

A. To lead in the trend of skip-gen travel. B. To share the pleasure in going fishing.

C. To stress the importance of family ties. D. To show the growing interest in adventure.

13. Which of the following may Annie Collins agree?

A. Many parents are too strict with children.

B. Grandparents benefit more from skip-gen travel.

C. Spending time with grandparents is better for kids.

D. Children become mature when away from parents.

14. What do we know about the parents whose kids are on skip-gen travel?

A. They enjoy the moment to relax. B. They feel less anxious and stressed.

C. They miss their kids very much. D. They look forward to their own trip.

15. What does the author suggest grandparents do?

A. Get kids involved in travel planning. B. Strengthen the bond with grandchildren.

C. Reduce skip-gen travel appropriately. D. Make decisions in both sides’ interests.

I’m more than sorry to know that you are addicted to Dou Yin. I’m very worried about you. Now I’m writing to inform you of the harm caused by Dou Yin and offer you some advice.

Firstly, spending too much time playing Dou Yin may make you exhausted and absent-minded during taking a class. What’s more, playing Dou Yin for a long time will affect your eyesight.

第二节（满分25分）

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Mary and her husband, Jim, had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. However, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Mary was so angry that she said to Jim, "I'm going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.

With no path to follow, Mary just walked on for quite a long time. After she had dim bed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake, To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and a snow—covered mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.

"Jim!”, Mary cried. "Help!"

No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Jim. Mary kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Mary was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Mary wanted very much to be with Jim and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.

Mary rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling（滴落）somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she lasted anything better. Feeling stronger, Mary began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.

As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Mary heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Mary took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag it if they came back again.

注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

Paragraph 1:

But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:

It was daybreak when Mary woke tip.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【47题答案】

【答案】One possible version:

But no more helicopters cameand it was getting dark again. Mary fell down into the soft grass. The stream sounded amusing. She thought about Jim, memories flooding out as she closed her eyes and recalled the kindnessof him. Soon, she fell asleep.

It was daybreak whenMary woke up. Sunshine poured on the forest plain, reflecting to bloom her yellow blouseto be an attractive “flower”. In her sleepy eyes, ahelicopter was right in the sky. Wild with joy, she jumped up, waving the blouse while crying. The helicopter spotted her and began to land on the grass. “It’s Jim! I know he will come!”A pair of warm hands reached Mary’s cheeks. “Where did you go? If something happened to you, I would alway shave it on my conscience.” “I’m sorry.” Mary said.
