Experienced swimmers know it is relatively easy to escape the narrow channel of the fast moving water by floating and allowing it to drag you further into the ocean or by swimming alongside the shore. However, inexperienced beachgoers often panic, and try to swim to land, placing themselves at risk of drowning due to tiredness. According to the US National Ocean Service, the currents kill about 100 Americans each year and account for 80% of all lifeguard rescues. These scary statistics may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to Clever Girl, a smart buoy (浮标) that warns swimmers of the presence of deadly rip currents.‎ The smart device is the brainchild of Australian teenager Maddison King, who created Clever Girl as a project for her Grade 12 Design and Technology class. The 18yearold, who works as a lifeguard during her spare time, came up with the brilliant idea after discovering that most children were unable to detect rip currents.‎ The basketballsized plastic buoy, which can be attached to a chain of similar devices or the ocean floor, is fitted with a small propeller (螺旋桨). When the water travels at the speed of over 70 centimeters per second, it spins the propeller fast enough to power the light atop the buoy, warning swimmers to stay clear of the area.‎ Though it sounds simple enough, the youngster had to overcome ‎ numerous design challenges. For instance, she picked a red light since it is easy to see in the bright sunlight and also because the color serves as a universal warning sign for tourists that do not speak the local language. The device's smooth surface and high handles ensure swimmers do not get hurt, while the black, white, and red striped underside, keeps sharks and other animals at bay.‎ Future versions might include something like a warning siren, which would provide sound warnings of rip currents. Besides, the present model costs about $300 to make. “That's beyond my purse，” she laughs. “The cost has to be cut down.”‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。在海洋里游泳时，一些缺乏经验的游泳者遇到高速离岸流时常常感到恐惧，并试图游向陆地，最终因疲劳而溺水身亡。受做临时救生员工作经历的启发，Maddison King发明了一种装置，能在离岸流达到一定速度时发出预警，从而避免人们误入高速洋流。‎ ‎4．Which of the following is the right way to escape the rip current?‎ A．Waiting for rescues.‎ B．Swimming to the shore.‎ C．Moving fast in the water.‎ D．Floating with the water.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知，有经验的游泳者知道，通过在快速流动的水中漂浮，让流水带着自己流入海洋或沿着海岸游泳是逃离岸流的有效方式。故选D项。‎ ‎5．Why did Maddison decide to invent Clever Girl?‎ A．She wanted to challenge her creativity.‎ B．She was motivated by her working experience.‎ C．She was supposed do complete it for her class.‎ D．She was scared by the statistics of the government.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，18岁的Maddison King在业余时间做救生员，她发现大多数孩子都无法察觉到离岸流，终究会因为疲劳而使自己处于溺水的危险之中，故B项正确。‎ ‎6．What do we know about the present version of Clever Girl?‎ A．It's not available on the market.‎ B．It's quite attractive for sea animals.‎ C．It's based on a complex theory.‎ D．It can give warnings in different ways.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第一段可知，每年大约有100个美国人死于离岸流，但这些可怕的统计数据可能很快成为过去，这多亏了警告浮标装置—— Clever Girl。结合最后一段可知，这种装置的成本很高，且未形成成品；据此可以判断，其目前版本还没有投放市场。故选A项。‎ ‎7．What could the future version of Clever Girl be like?‎ A．Safer and greener.‎ B．Cheaper and safer.‎ C．Greener and more effective.‎ D．Cheaper and more effective.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知，这种产品目前的版本成本大约是300美元，在将来成本可能会下降；根据最后一段第一句可知，这种产品会更有效。故选D项。‎ C It was needles that brought Anaelle Regniel to China. She was attracted by the “tiny silver needles that could smooth the pain of a patient” used in acupuncture (针刺疗法)．‎ Following her curiosity, the high school student in France who was learning Chinese about a decade ago, was eager to find out more about traditional Chinese medicine.‎ She majored in both Chinese and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at college. Then, considering TCM to be more developed in Britain, where there were a few private hospitals of TCM, she did an internship (实习医生的工作) at a TCM clinic in Leeds, Britain. That was where she heard about the scholarship of the first Confucius Institute for TCM.‎ In 2013, she studied Chinese at the Confucius Institute in Leeds for three months, and won a scholarship. She then started a oneyear internship in the Acupuncture Department of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine in Harbin.‎ ‎“I thought at the beginning that with the knowledge and techniques of acupuncture, it would not be so difficult. After all, acupuncture should be the same everywhere, right？” the 27yearold woman recalled. Before long, she found with_dismay that she was wrong.‎ Later on, she moved to the Internal Medicine Department, where she learned to give prescriptions (药方). Learning the properties, composition and curative effects of TCM was difficult but useful.‎ And now she is in her third year of graduate studies supported by the local government in Northeast China's Heilongjiang Province.‎ ‎“I will go back to France as an inheritor (继承者) and communicator of traditional Chinese culture and help those in need with my knowledge and skills，” Anaelle Regniel shared in a speech at the 2017 Confucius Institute Open Day in Beijing in September.‎ 语篇解读：本文讲述了一个外国人学习中国传统医学的经历。‎ ‎8．What can we learn from the second paragraph?‎ A．Acupuncture is very popular in France.‎ B．Anaelle Regniel was curious about Chinese.‎ C．Traditional Chinese Medicine holds great attraction for Anaelle Regniel.‎ D．Anaelle Regniel came to China when she was in high school.‎ 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第二段内容可推断出Anaelle Regniel对中医非常感兴趣。‎ ‎9．Why did Anaelle Regniel do an internship in Britain?‎ A．She couldn't find a job in France.‎ B．She was admitted into a university in Britain.‎ C．She wanted to get a scholarship from the Confucius Institute.‎ D．She could get more chances to learn traditional Chinese medicine.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then, considering TCM to be more developed in Britain ... in Leeds, Britain.”可知选D。‎ ‎10．Which of the following words can best describe Anaelle Regniel?‎ A．Curious and stubborn.‎ B．Caring and interesting.‎ C．Determined and ambitious.‎ D．Helpful and hardworking.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。Anaelle Regniel为了学好中国传统医学而离开家乡，先后到英国和中国学习。她表示回国后要用自己所学的知识和技能帮助那些有需要的人。故选D。‎ ‎11．What does the underlined phrase “with dismay” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?‎ A．Regretfully. B．Fortunately.‎ C．Surprisingly. D．Accidentally.‎ 解析：选C　词义猜测题。根据语境可知此处表示不久之后，她惊讶地发现她错了。故选C。‎ D ‎(2019·福建百校联考)Welcome to Glass of Venice, the number one importer and retailer of authentic Murano Glass in the US and one of the top names among Murano Glass retailers worldwide.
