It is February 25, 2099, seven o'clock. Time to get up and go to school，” said the clock-robot in a mental voice. Then the kitchen-robot gave him toast and eggs. Billy was amazed. While he was eating, the whole wall became a TV screen and Billy thought that it was great having robots to do everything for him. Billy ate his meal, watching a TV show. When he finished eating, the clothes-robot gave him his clothes very fast and dressed him. Then Billy went off to school.When Billy went outside, he saw a car with no driver waiting for him. The car said, “Hello, I will be driving you to school every day. Now would you please show your school ID card？” said the car. So Billy showed the car his school ID card and got in. The car began to talk to Billy about his school and his schoolwork. After that the car said, “I will check your homework today because you will have a very, very important lesson to learn in school today. Please put your homework on the blackboard.” Billy did so.The car checked Billy's homework and then said, “Well done! You are a great student. All of your homework is correct.” When they got to school, Billy said to the car, “Goodbye. See you later.”The car said to Billy, “Good luck in your school.” Billy got into the classroom and took his seat at the front of the room. Then his teacher came in and said, “Welcome, children! Today we will have a hard but important lesson—‘How do robots help a human being？’…”16．What's the best title of the passage?A．Billy's Daily LifeB．How Billy Go to SchoolC．How Do Robots Help Humans in the FutureD．Robots17．Who cooked breakfast for Billy?A．His mother. B．His father.C．A robot. D．Billy himself.18．When did Billy have to show his school ID card?A．Before getting to school.B．Before getting into the car.C．Before entering the classroom.D．Before classes were over.19．Which of the following is NOT true?A．Billy liked having robots to do everything for him.B．At first Billy was very surprised.C．Billy was glad that the robot teacher would give a very, very important lesson.D．The car itself drove Billy to school.BThe plan: turn Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields, and then fill it with creatures(生物) from the earth.This idea may sound like something from a science fiction (科幻小说), but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggested future for the “red planet”will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA (美国宇航局) this week.Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event.It comes as NASA is preparing a multi-billion-dollar Mars research programme.“Turning Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in sciencefiction，”said Dr Michael Meyer, NASA's senior scientist for astrobiology (太空生物学)．“Now, with scientists exploring the reality, we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing Mars.”Most scientists agree that Mars could be turned into a little earth, although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal.But many experts are shocked by the idea.“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet，” said Paul Murdin, of the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, UK.Over the past months, scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms.Europe and America's robot explorers have found proof that water, mixed with soil, exists in large amounts on the planet.In addition, two different groups of scientistsannounced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane (甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere (大气)．The gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes (微生物) living in the red planet's soil.But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt, a biologist at Indiana University, say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on Mars, we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms, all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil，” said Dr Pratt.This view is shared by Monica Grady, a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum, London.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for.”she said, “This is just wrong.”20．The passage is about________.A．a plan turning Mars into a little earthB．the necessity of changing MarsC．Mars supporting lifeD．finding water in the Mars21．Which of the following is NOT the reason why some scientists are against the plan?A．The project would wipe out all the native life forms on the Mars.B．The project will cost too much money and work.C．We would ruin Mars.D．We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed.22．We can infer from the passage that________.A．water is a crucial factor for lifeB．the project will have little effect on the native life forms supposed to live on the MarsC．Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth projectD．the idea turning Mars into a little earth is nothing but a science fiction23．Which of the following supports the conclusion of microbes living in the Mars soil?A．Scientists found liquid water in the Mars.B．Scientists found signs of methane in the Martianatmosphere.C．Scientists found a lot of good soil on the Mars.D．Scientists found some creatures living on the Mars.答案课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.1.B考查交际用语。

If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio－technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on—in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to image that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.16．According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by ________.A．diseases and agingB．accidents and warC．accidents and agingD．heart disease and war17．In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in ________.A．medicineB．the InternetC．brain cellsD．human organs18．Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A．heart disease will be far away from usB．human brains can decide the final deathC．the basic materials of cells will last foreverD．human organs can be repaired by new medicine19．How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A．Over 100 years.B．More than 120 years.C．About 150 years.D．The passage doesn't tell us.20．We can learn from the passage that ________.A．human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB．humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC．much more needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD．we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsBCelebrities(名人) have become a powerful influence on some people because of their social position and their economic situation.First, some people admire and imitate stars because they allow themselves to be influenced by the media.Television, radio, and magazines invade(侵扰) the lives of spectators with a variety of shows, information, and publications about stars and their lives.For instance, Britney Spears has become the target of paparazzi(狗仔队)．In May, Britney appeared at the front page of the most popular magazines revealing that she married her best friend in Vegas, Nevada.Media also invade stars' lives because reporters know they get high profits from readers who buy and follow their favorite artists' news.Second, some fanatic audiences imitate their celebrities because they lack confidence.Some people who are shy and lack personality may find that imitating others will cause a good impression.For example, my cousin Jenny, who lacks a social life because of her introverted(内向的) personality, believes that acting and dressing like Jennifer Lopez will make her popular in high school.Finally, several fans of stars imitate them because of peer(同龄人) pressure.Since my niece's girl friends formed an Antonio Banderas' fan club, she had also joined the group.Although she wasn't a huge fan of his, now she collects most of Banderas' possessions.In fact, when I asked Arianna, my niece, why she was part of Banderas' fan club, she replied with a doubtful tone that she did not wish to be rejected by the other teens.In conclusion, it is true that celebrities play spectacular roles in their performances in Hollywood, which entertains myriads of people all over the world; however, modern celebrities influence audiences to the point where their fans admire and try to imitate artists' lives.21．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．Why people are influenced by celebrities.B．The harmful influence of celebrities.C．What kind of people are influenced by celebrities.D．How to avoid the influence of celebrities.22．We can infer from Paragraph 2 that________.A．media are on the side of starsB．stars know how to take advantage of mediaC．media can give wrong information about starsD．media invade stars' lives for their own good23．Jenny acts and dresses like Jennifer Lopez because________.A．she admires Jennifer Lopez's personalityB．she wants to become famous tooC．she wants to change her own personalityD．she lacks self－confidence24．Arianna joined the Antonio Banderas' fan club to________.A．seek encouragement from the starB．be accepted by other teensC．become a real fan of the starD．learn more about the star25．The author of the passage probably believes that________.A．it's easy for people to resist the influence of celebritiesB．all young people are easily influenced by celebritiesC．it's no good for people to imitate celebrities blindlyD．people can improve their personality by imitating their favorite stars答案课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.作者现在是一位17岁的中学生。

children，who are missing out on opportunities afforded to previous generations，ones as simple as climbing trees or getting their knees dirty.In the modern world，the adults of the future are displaying the symptoms of “naturedeficit (缺少) disorder”．The term was made up by Richard Louv，author of Last Child in the Woods.In the introduction to his book，he said that over the past few decades the way children understood and experienced nature had “changed greatly”．“Today，kids are aware of the global threats to the environment—but their physical contact，their intimacy (亲密) with nature，is fading.That’s exactly the opposite of how it was when I was a child，” said Mr Louv.He admitted that naturedeficit disorderwas “by no means a medical diagnosis”．Tim Gill，author of the report Sowing the Seeds：Reconnecting London’s Children with Nature，agreed that the term does not have any meaningful clinical basis.“My idea is that regular contact with nature is part of a balanced diet of childhood experiences.If children do not have those experiences then they are not going to thrive to the same degree as if they did，” Tim Gill added.“They are also likely to grow up not caring about the world around them.”“Forest schools” are a type of outdoor education in which children visit forests，learning social and living skills.They are intended to offer children regular opportunities to develop c onfidence and independence through handson learning in a woodland environment.They have appeared to have a beneficial effect on children with emotional or behavioural problems.Play England is an organization that focuses on giving children access to free play areas.“We believe that kids should be outside playing for a good proportion of the day because it is how they can stay happy，less stressed and healthy，” said Play England director Cath Prisk.However，she added：“Research showed that parents think taki ng their kids to the park is something you do as a rare treat instead of something you do routinely.”1．As a child，Richard Louv________.A．was fond of writing medical booksB．spent a lot of time playing in the open airC．read a lot of books about natureD．was curious about wildlife2．When children with naturedeficit disorder grow up，they will probably________. A．suffer from a mental diseaseB．be confident and independentC．ignore the surrounding worldD．have bad social skills3．What is a child not likely t o learn in “forest schools”？A．Cooking.

Even more amazing is that the person behind it is just 21.When Alice Pulford was waiting to get into university, she took a fivemonth teaching position in Malawi.She loved the place, and returned in the spring of 2009 to visit her friend Zulu in Tilinanu.His aunt Mercy owned land there and was doing her best to provide an education for the orphans, many of whom had lost parents to AIDS or malaria(疟疾)．But after helping Mercy out for some time, Alice realised that what the girls in particular really needed was a safe and permanent place to live.There was a derelict(年久失修的) church on Mercy's land.“If you give me the church, I'll set up a home for these children，” Alice told her.Mercy agreed.Alice phoned home and told her family about her plan.The family had already helped Alice raise ￡1，800 to assist the orphans.After they received Alice's call, they threw themselves into raising another ￡6，000, organising theatre trips and special parties and dinners.Alice found Malawian builders, selected materials and even helped with the brick laying.In ten weeks, the church became a dormitory with toilets and a living area.In spring last year, Alice raised another ￡19，000 to build the medical centre and two new dormitories.The girls are happier—and so is Alice, who has been spending around four months in Malawi a year.“The orphans think they're gaining from me, but when I see their smile, it transforms me，” she s ays.36．Over a year ago, the orphans didn't have ________．A．a classroom B．a teacherC．shelter D．food37．What is known about the home Alice has built for the orphans?A．It looks like a community hall.B．It depends on the villagers' help.C．It provides a place for recreation.D．It benefits both the children and adults.38．Pulford's family are ________．A．short of moneyB．fond of entertainmentsC．supportive of each otherD．unaware of Alice's plan39．What has Alice learned from her experience?A．Moneyraising is a family business.B．Winning orphans' smile calls for skills.C．AIDS has made many children parentless.D．Helping others brings changes in a person.Ⅳ.短文填词Mobile phones are becoming more and more popular with teenagers.

It is February 25, 2099, seven o'clock. Time to get up and go to school，” said the clock-robot in a mental voice. Then the kitchen-robot gave him toast and eggs. Billy was amazed. While he was eating, the whole wall became a TV screen and Billy thought that it was great having robots to do everything for him. Billy ate his meal, watching a TV show. When he finished eating, the clothes-robot gave him his clothes very fast and dressed him. Then Billy went off to school.When Billy went outside, he saw a car with no driver waiting for him. The car said, “Hello, I will be driving you to school every day. Now would you please show your school ID card？” said the car. So Billy showed the car his school ID card and got in. The car began to talk to Billy about his school and his schoolwork. After that the car said, “I will check your homework today because you will have a very, very important lesson to learn in school today. Please put your homework on the blackboard.” Billy did so.The car checked Billy's homework and then said, “Well done! You are a great student. All of your homework is correct.” When they got to school, Billy said to the car, “Goodbye. See you later.”The car said to Billy, “Good luck in your school.” Billy got into the classroom and took his seat atthe front of the room. Then his teacher came in and said, “Welcome, children! Today we will have a hard but important lesson—‘How do robots help a human being？’…”11．What's the best title of the passage?A．Billy's Daily LifeB．How Billy Go to SchoolC．How Do Robots Help Humans in the FutureD．Robots12．Who cooked breakfast for Billy?A．His mother. B．His father.C．A robot. D．Billy himself.13．When did Billy have to show his school ID card?A．Before getting to school.B．Before getting into the car.C．Before entering the classroom.D．Before classes were over.14．Which of the following is NOT true?A．Billy liked having robots to do everything for him.B．At first Billy was very surprised.C．Billy was glad that the robot teacher would give a very, very important lesson.D．The car itself drove Billy to school.BThe plan: turn Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields, and then fill it with creatures(生物) from the earth.This idea may sound like something from a science fiction (科幻小说), but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggested future for the “red planet”will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA (美国宇航局) this week.Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event.It comes as NASA is preparing a multi-billion-dollar Mars research programme.“Turning Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction，”said Dr Michael Meyer, NASA's senior scientist for astrobiology (太空生物学)．“Now, with scientists exploring the reality, we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing Mars.”Most scientists agree that Mars could be turned into a little earth, although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal.But many experts are shocked by the idea.“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet，” said Paul Murdin, of the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, UK.Over the past months, scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms.Europe and America's robot explorers have found proof that water, mixed with soil, exists in large amounts on the planet.In addition, two different groups of scientistsannounced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane (甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere (大气)．The gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes (微生物) living in the red planet's soil.But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt, a biologist at Indiana University, say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on Mars, we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms, all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil，” said Dr Pratt.This view is shared by Monica Grady, a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum, Lond on.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for.”she said, “This is just wrong.”15．The passage is about________.A．a plan turning Mars into a little earthB．the necessity of changing MarsC．Mars supporting lifeD．finding water in the Mars16．Which of the following is NOT the reason why some scientists are against the plan?A．The project would wipe out all the native life forms on the Mars.B．The project will cost too much money and work.C．We would ruin Mars.D．We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed.17．We can infer from the passage that________.A．water is a crucial factor for lifeB．the project will have little effect on the native life forms supposed to live on the MarsC．Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth projectD．the idea turning Mars into a little earth is nothing but a science fiction18．Which of the following supports the conclusion of microbes living in the Mars soil?A．Scientists found liquid water in the Mars.B．Scientists found signs of methane in the Martianatmosphere.C．Scientists found a lot of good soil on the Mars.D．Scientists found some creatures living on the Mars.Ⅲ.完成句子阅读下列各小题，根据每句后的汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。
