四、新素材 校园获奖发明——电脑屏幕遮光罩（2026·无锡侨谊实验中学期中改编）阅读理解(15分)
All the way home from school, Jane thought about the invention contest(发明比赛). Who did she know had a problem(问题)?
At home, Jane found her mother working on her computer. Jane's mother was sitting under a bright light. "Oh, my eyes hurt(疼)," said her mother.
Jane had an idea. Many people could not see their computer screen(屏幕) well in bright light. This problem needed an invention!
For the rest of the week, Jane made screen $\underline{\mathrm{covers}}$ from different materials(不同的材料). She tried each one on her mum's computer screen. Some materials were too heavy. Some were too thin. After trying many different things, Jane found the best material.
On Friday, Jane brought her invention to school. Her invention was very small. It did not look very interesting. Maybe the other kids will laugh at it, thought Jane. Mr Brown asked everyone to talk about their inventions. Jimmy showed a hair brush that he made. The brush could get hot. "Girls can use it when they do their hair," said Jimmy.
"Hmm... That looks dangerous(危险的)," said Mr Brown.
At last, it was time for Jane to show her invention. She put her special cover on top of the computer screen. She turned on the computer. The sun was shining through the window, but everyone could see the screen.
"That is wonderful!" said Mr Brown. "Where did you get the bright idea for this?" he asked.
"I saw a problem," said Jane. "It took some work to find the best way to fix the problem, but I made it."
"Small problems can lead to great inventions," said Mr Brown. "You win our invention contest, Jane."

四、[文章大意]本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了简通过观察母亲在强光下使用电脑时眼睛不适的问题,发明了一种电脑屏幕遮光罩,并在学校的发明比赛中获胜的故事。
1.D [解析]细节理解题。根据“Maybe the other kids will laugh at it, thought Jane.”可知,简对自己的发明缺乏信心,认为其他孩子可能会嘲笑它。故选 D。
2.D [解析]词义猜测题。根据“She tried each one on her mum's computer screen.”和“She put her special cover on top of the computer screen. She turned on the computer. The sun was shining through the window, but everyone could see the screen.”可知,简用不同的材料制作了能放到电脑屏幕上的遮盖物。“covers”的功能是遮挡强光,因此画线词“covers”意为“遮挡物”。故选 D。
3.C [解析]标题归纳题。通读全文并根据“Small problems can lead to great inventions”可知,本文主要讲述了简通过观察母亲在强光下使用电脑时眼睛不适的问题,发明了一种电脑屏幕遮光罩,并在学校的发明比赛中获胜的故事。文章旨在告诉我们,小问题也可以催生伟大的发明。标题应体现“从问题到发明”的核心思想。选项 C“小问题,大发明”最贴合主题,适合作为文章标题。故选 C。
