At the beginning of this term, we moved to the new school yard, where lies in the far north of the city. We were all on high spirits. It is much big than the old one. The classrooms are bright and clean. We have a lot of modern lab equipment, making convenient for students to do experiments. Now we can have various after-school activity on the new playground. Our teachers often play the basketball and soccer together with us. As spring approached, the flowers newly planting in the yard are so beautiful. With such many green trees and fragrant flowers around, we feel it less hardly to deal with the pressure of school work in the senior year.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

On Feburary 22, 2018, Wu Dajing became the first Chinese man 1. (win) an Olympic short track gold medal, 2. (claim) China’s first gold medal at the Pyeongchang Games. And on November 11, Wu Dajing, 24, set 3. new world record. It took him just 39.505 seconds to finish the men’s 500-meter race at the 2018 Short Track World Cup, 4. took place in Salt Lake City, US.

Shaoang Liu, who competed against Wu at the World Cup, 5. (shake) his head in disbelief after the race. “It’s 6. (true) lucky to have been in a world record race,” Liu said. “The rest of us are all on a certain level but Wu is just, like, ‘up here’.” Indeed, every time Wu skates, he leaves his 7. (competitor) behind within seconds. Wu is untouchable, not only for dominating his sport, but also for his unusual 8. (high) (182 cm, tall for a short tracker).

Wu owes his success 9. his self-discipline. He started to skate at the age of 10. He gets up at 4 a.m. every day to practice. He never 10. (eat) meat or has carbonated (碳酸的) drinks, even though he loves cola very much. Only once has Wu broken his self-made rule—just after his win at the Winter Olympics.

    There are many ways to begin making gratitude a habit in your life. The best way to tell someone that you appreciate their effort is to talk to them directly. 1. Express your gratitude through words that they can treasure for a long time. Even something as small as sincerely showing appreciation and recognition by telling someone they did a good job and saying thank you offers some feelings of appreciation. 2.

If you cannot meet the person because they either live far away or you do not have time to meet them, you can send them your gratitude in the form of a gift. 3. You can wait for a holiday like Thanksgiving to send them.

4. Small gestures can make a person feel appreciated. There may be some people who are older than you and the way to show gratefulness is by respecting and obeying them. Is your father going shopping?

5. Your mother has a lot of work in hand, so you can do your bit to lessen her workload.

A. Express gratitude by sending him a useful gift.

B. Take the job in your hands and shop for your father.

C. Meet the people and tell them that you are grateful to have them in your life.

D. Flowers with a note saying thank you can brighten anybody’s day.

E. You will be able to witness their pleasant expressions when they hear what you say.

F. Gifts and words are not the only way to express gratitude.

G. Gratitude helps us focus on the good things we have, and not on what we lack.

    When you think of batteries, you’ll likely think about them powering up remote controls, cellphones, flashlights and toys. But some people carry a battery around in their body to power a pacemaker (起搏器). It isn’t really pleasant and easy to carry batteries because they need to be replaced so often and they can leak poisonous chemicals. A battery-powered pacemaker may become a thing of the past, thanks to a new technology developed by UCLA researchers: a biological supercapacitor (超级电容器), which is thinner than several hairs.

Teams of researchers at UCLA and the University of Connecticut published a paper in a journal explaining their new invention. The supercapacitor is made from a carbon material, and coated with human-like proteins that act as electrodes (电极). But what makes the device different is that it is powered by an energy harvester that changes body heat and movement in the blood into energy.

Those traditional pacemakers are six to eight millimeters thick. They are much bigger. The new supercapacitor, which, due to its lack of battery, is only one micrometer thick. This “little” feature could benefit the new pacemaker’s energy efficiency, researchers stated. Also, unlike other batteries used in medical treatments, the supercapacitor can bend and twist in the body without suffering damage.

Though they’ve not been widely used in the medical world, supercapacitors have the ability to serve as a safer and more efficient medical device than the traditional battery-operated devices, the researchers believe.

“In order to be effective, battery-free pacemakers must have supercapacitors that can get, store and transport energy. However, commercial supercapacitors are too slow to make them work,” said Maher El-Kady, a UCLA researcher and a co-author of the study. “Our research focused on the custom-designed supercapacitor to capture energy effectively, and finding a way to make it exist together successfully with the human body.”

1.What do we know about traditional pacemakers?

A.They are very popular with users.

B.They can do harm to the users’ bodies.

C.They need to be replaced quite often.

D.They are really convenient to carry around.

2.What is special about the new supercapacitor?

A.It has electrodes on the outside.

B.It is made from a kind of protein material.

C.It can transform the energy from the body.

D.It helps save the carriers’ money and energy.

3.Which of the following makes the new pacemaker energy-efficient?

A.The small size.

B.The small battery.

C.The energy harvester.

D.The bending and twisting characters.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.A New Technology to Downsize Batteries.

B.A New Battery-free Pacemaker.

C.A Smaller Battery-powered Pacemaker.

D.A Great Contribution Made by UCLA Researchers.
