Let us know your view. Comments:Museums are not only there for enjoyment; they are education. This is why they must be free. While museums need a huge amount of money to operate, let the wealthy pay for it. The idea of a person or child interested in art not being able to view it because of cost is wrong.Krista Chen (US)-Age 15 Free entry does not attract people or encourage them to appreciate art. Generally people respect things that are difficult or costly to get Museums should require regular visitors to pay a fee, but provide free tickets as prizes for high-achieving students who can appreciate them more.Fred Smith (New Zealand)-Age 14 Museums teach people about their past. This is part of our shared culture that should be available to everyone, rich or poor. People should never be asked to pay anentrance fee.Rob Sanchez (Australia)-Age 17 There are no simple answers. Low ticket prices could help museums stay open. But companies and businessmen should also provide museums with more money and other support. They have a social responsibility too.Amber White (UK)-Age 16I think museums and art galleries should all be free to the public. I do, however, think twice a year the museums should organize money-raising events to help pay for the cost of staying open.Li Mishao (China)-Age 1536.

They became the world's first kids to be taught by an electronic teacher. This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom. Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students' computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.Created by technology company Smart Machines, Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught byhuman teachers.Just like human teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the student's questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students' exchange helps get the student's attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill's behavior and knowledge base when needed.The program has been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says, "What is interesting to me is the children's reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention." Frost thinks kids don't find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a timeof computers and smart phones.It is doubtful, however, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one, this talking head's knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can't guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill's future might be as a "personal tutor", providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.41.What is Bill?A.A human-like robot.B.A kind of computer game.C.A computer recording tool.D.A computer-created talking head.42.How does the two-way exchange help the program developers?A.It lets them correct students' mistakes.B.It allows Bill to respond more quickly.C.It helps them know how to improve Bill.D.It helps them study students' body language.43.The underlined word "they" in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.A. kidsB. older peopleC. smart machinesD. program developers44 What is Bill NOT good at doing?A. Attracting students' attention.B. Understanding body language.C. Responding to students questions.D. Dealing with unexpected situations.45.How might Bill be used in the future according to the last paragraph?A.To work as human classroom teachers.B.To encourage students' interest in computers.C.To give students personal help with different subjects.D.To watch over the behavior of the students in the classroom.第二节阅读填空（共5小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分）阅读短文及文后A~E选项，选出可以填入46~50 各题空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
