23、as we could,Beechnuts and butternuts grown in the wood.For cold days and hard times winter surely will bring,And a habit of saving is a wonderful thing!”“But my children are young and they like to play,We have plenty, yes plenty, already, they say.We are tired of bringing in food for our store.Let u

27、ailmaker named Chris. He worked very hard every day, but he didnt make much money. He had a roof over his head and food to eat, so he lived comfortably, but he felt lonely because he had nobody to share his simple life with. One day, an injured crane lay near Chris front steps. “Poor crane,” he whis
28、pered. He carefully carried the crane and brought it inside. He cared for it all winter long. One day, it was strong enough to fly away. Chris watched and thought, “If only I could catch that cranes swiftness(迅速) in one of my sails.” The following spring, a beautiful woman knocked at Chris door. “My
29、 name is Lydia,” she said softly. “Ive been walking for several days, and I need food and rest.” Chris took her in. A month later, they got married.“I can make wonderful sails for you,” Lydia said. “They will be beautiful, and you will make a lot of money from them. However, you must promise never t
30、o watch me make the sails.”Chris said, “I promise.”Lydia went to her weaving(编织) room. A month went by before the first sail was finished. When Chris finally brought it to the market, he was surprised that people wanted to pay so much money for it. He asked Lydia to weave more. She wove many sails,
31、and Chris wealth grew. He spent his new money on expensive clothing, jewellery, and paintings. As he made more money and got more things, he slowly became more greedy(贪婪的).One day, Lydia said she needed to rest. She was tired out. But Chris insisted that she keep working, so she did. Then Chris want
32、ed her to work faster. He became impatient with Lydia. One day, he was so angry that he forgot about the promise hed made. He threw open the door to Lydias weaving room and was surprised to see a beautiful crane weaving its feathers into a sail.Chris shouted. “Youre the crane that I saved!”“Yes,” th

36、ice makes perfect. C. It never rains but it pours.D. Actions speak louder than words.DThe world is full of amazing things. Lets see Chinas amazing technology!In our modern age, we do not think much about how our technology works. We are so used to tapping on our phone screen to get a map of our loca
37、tion. But how do our phones know where in the world we are and in which direction we are going? It is all thanks to the satellites in space that help our phones calculate our position. Depending on where you are around the world, your phone may be receiving data from different systems. In Europe, pe
38、ople have the Galileo system. In Russia, they have GLONASS. In the USA, people use GPS. China, meanwhile, has the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS). The BDS in operation today is more advanced than the first version(版本) of the system, which was sent into space in 2000. The present version has
39、better technology and more satellites. The system is not finished, though. When it is completed, there will be lots of BDS satellites. In the future, those satellites will allow us to discover the position of objects with millimetre accuracy(精确度): that is ten times more accurate than GPS.Even though
40、 more satellites are being added to the system, the BDS has already been put to use. More than 40,000 Chinese fishing boats are using the system now. These boats are very helpful in search and rescue operations(营救行动) at sea. They are able to communicate with support services on land as well as give
41、the exact locations of ships in trouble.The BDS is being used on land as well. Of course, its not hard to imagine how the system is helping the police and firefighters do their job. Agriculture is another area where there are applications for the system. Farmers are able to put the data to good use
42、when operating smart farming equipment. For example, the BDS can be used to control driverless tractors as they turn up the fields. Farmers are also using drones(无人机) to check the health of crops and spread seeds over fields.Although the BDS is of Chinese origin(起源), the developers have said that “C
43、hinas BeiDou is the worlds BeiDou”, and they are actively developing international cooperation. Developers predict that the system will not only grow in popularity within China, but overseas as well. And when the system is complete and fully operational in the years to come, the BDS will undoubtedly
44、 bring lots of advantages to China and the rest of the world.36. What does the underlined word “calculate” probably mean according to the dictionary?calculate /klkjulet/ verb to solve the meaning of something to form an opinion about something to specially design a product or an event to work out th
45、e results according to the data or cluesA. B. C. D. 37. How does the writer show the changes in the BDS in Paragraph 2?A. By showing steps. B. By telling stories.C. By listing numbers. D. By comparing conditions.38. Which of the following can we learn from the passage?A. The BDS has already become p
46、opular both at home and abroad.B. People around the world use the same system to locate positions.C. The whole world will take advantages of the BDS in several years.D. The BDS has become a common way of communication in daily life.39. Where do you probably read this passage?A. In a storybook.B. In
47、an art book.C. In a science book. D. In a guide book.40. What is the best title for the passage?A. Next up, the BDS B. Get away, the BDS C. Look back, the BDS D.
