Passage 4

There are many useful inventions in the world.

Have you ever wished to have an umbrella that makes your hands free? Alan Kaufman has thought upthe “Nubrella”, which means “new”+ “umbrella”. It is the first truly hands-free umbrella in the world. The inventor says that it stops rain，wind and snow and can keep your head, face and hair dry．

“I never planned to invent a product. I just noticed a problem and thought up a solution,”said the inventor．The idea for the invention began on one rainy day. MrKaufman was standing in one of his stores. He began to look at people's umbrellas. He found that they had to try very hard to keep their umbrellas in the right place. At that moment an idea came into his mind. He ran to his desk and drew a picture. In this way, the Nubrella was born．

One cool feature of the Nubrella is that you don't hold it like a usual umbrella, you wear it. The shoulder straps(肩带) of the Nubrella allow people to be fully hands-free, so when walking in the rain with the Nubrella, you are able to use your cell phone or drink a hot cup of coffee. Also, the Nubrella will never be inverted(颠倒) in the wind. The newumbrella is far safer than traditional ones, because it has no sharp points．

51. “Nubrella” is a kind of umbrella．

A. usual B. hands-freeC. traditionalD. paper

52. How can you use the “Nubrella”?

A. You can wear the shoulder straps of the Nubrella．

B. You can put the Nubrella on your head．

C. You can use your hands to control it．

D. You can put it on your bike．

53. Which of the following is NOT right?

A. “Nubrella” means “new”+“umbrella”．

B. The idea of the new umbrella came from the rainy day．

C. When you are walking in the rain, you'd better take the Nubrella．

D. If you go out with the Nubrella in the rain, you'dbetterdrink a hot cup of coffee．

54. It can be learned from the passage that ．

A. Alan Kaufman often uses umbrellas in everyday life

B. the new kind of umbrella was invented by an umbrella store owner

C. the inventor thought for a long time before inventing the Nubrella

D. you can do other things with your hands when using the Nubrella

Passage 2

阅读短文，填写表格，每空一词。

Once upon a time there were three little pigs. One day their mother said to them, “You are too big to live here. You need to build your own houses. But make sure that the wolf can't catch you.”

The first little pig built his house with grass. It was the easiest thing to do. The second little pig built his house with sticks, which was a little bit stronger than the grass house. The third little pig built his house with bricks(砖), which was the strongest but took him a lot of time.

One day the wolf came and saw the first little pig in his grass house. The wolf pushed down the house and ate the first little pig. Then the wolf came to the stick house and pushed down that house, too. Then he ate the second little pig. The wolf then came to the house of bricks, but he could not push down that brick house. The wolf climbed up to the roof and tried to get in through the chimney(烟囱). The smart little pig fired and boiled water on it. When the wolf fell down, he fell into the hot water and died.
