Have you ever wanted to see the Great Wall of China, or win an Oscar for Best Director, or swim with dolphins (海豚)? If so, you are not alone. We all have things we want to do or achieve. These are part of our “bucket lists”. A bucket is a list of things that someone wants to experience in his or her lifetime. These things can be big or small. Have you ever thought about what is on your bucket list?
Lindsay, 15, created her bucket list when she was 14. She has given her list serious thought. “I’ve always wanted to travel. But I do want to go to space as a tourist. I want to see the Earth from above.” Other things on her list include seeing her favorite band in concert, learning how to speak Portuguese (葡萄牙语), and living in a foreign country. “I’ve always wanted to live in Brazil. As part of my bucket list, I want to attend Carnival (狂欢节) in the capital of Brazil,” she says.
Jose,16, recently created a list of things he wants to achieve. It changes sometimes — he adds and takes away things because he wants to keep the number of things at seven. One thing has stayed at number one, though: he wants to visit a movie set (a place where a movie is filmed). He would like to see the Harry Potter or the Hobbit movie sets. Other things on the list include being on TV, meeting his favorite sports star, living abroad, skateboarding down a mountain, attending the World Cup, and backpacking across Europe. He would like to spend two months visiting Eastern Europe with his best friend Adam. “Maybe after I graduate from college,” says Jose. So, what is your bucket list like?
46. The underlined word “bucket” in the first paragraph means _______.
A. 愿望 B. 遗嘱 C. 预言 47. Which of the following is No. 1 at Lindsay’s bucket list?
A. Visiting a movie set. B. Travelling to space. C. Living in Brazil. 48. Jose takes something away from his list while adding some mainly because _______. A. he has achieved them B. he doesn’t have enough money C. he wants to keep the total number
49. We can learn from the passage EXCEPT _______. A. Lindsay always sticks to her bucket list B. Neither Lindsay nor Jose is a sports lover C. Both Lindsay and Jose hope to live abroad 50. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. We should keep changing our bucket lists to meet our needs. B. Our bucket lists can help us work towards achieving our goals. C. Being confident is a key to our achievement on our bucket lists.
B
Have you ever heard of “a ball of energy”? People often use it to describe a very active child. But today we tell about an invention called the sOccket that is a real soccer ball of energy. Julia Silverman explains that in fact the sOccket is a portable generator (便携式发电机)．
Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews developed the sOccket as part of a group project for an engineering class at Harvard University, the USA.
There are mechanisms (装置) in a sOccket. When you kick, hit or throw it, energy is then kept in it by these mechanisms instead of disappearing into the environment. Then the user can put something directly into the ball, like a lamp, or a mobile phone charger (充电器) so that they can get energy from it. For every fifteen minutes of the game play, the sOccket can provide enough electricity for an LED lamp for three hours. The ball can store up to 24 hours’ electricity.
It was reported that nearly one and a half billion people in the world had no electricity to use last year. And most of them live in sub-Saharan Africa and in India and other countries in Asia.
Julia and Jessica both had experiences in developing countries before they began the project. They knew that power shortages are a serious problem in many areas. There is an energy crisis (危机) in the world. And besides that, there are a lot of health problems because what people use instead of the electricity are harmful choices like kerosene (煤油) lamps. They produce a lot of smoke.
Julia says the sOccket ball is one small solution to a big problem. They hope their sOccket ball will shine more light on the problem of power shortages. It offers people a chance to put their energy into the world’s most popular sport and get some energy in return.
51. What does “a ball of energy” refer to in this passage? A. A very active child. B. A normal soccer ball. 52. How can the sOccket get energy?
C. A soccer ball generator.
A. By getting recharged. B. By being kicked, hit or thrown.
C. By getting energy from the environment.
53. From the passage we can infer people in _______ are less short of energy or electricity. A. Asian countries like India B. sub-Saharan Africa 54. Which of the following statements is NOT right?
C. developed countries
A. The world has a serious problem of power shortage at present.
B. Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews are famous American inventors.
C. Both Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews have been to developing countries.
55. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?
A. The sOccket not only can produce electricity but also is good for health.
B. The sOccket has fully helped people to solve the problem of power shortages. C. The sOccket makes it possible for people to get energy by doing different sports.
