AChina is a land of bicycles. At least it was bac in 1992 when I traveled the country. Bac then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all blac. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biing. They rush quicly through crossroads, move sillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewals(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied(陪伴) my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pac”of biers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I too the ride carefully. Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot lie crossing a major highway bac in the United States.

Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shoc.Waling towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermaret, a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooed sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will mae her feel better,”he said. I was amaed that he’d come up with this sweet idea. So we went over to theflower seller and ased her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just tae it,”she replied. “I can’t tae your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(急救人员) had arrived, and were attending to the injured woman. As we waled up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him, “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to mae her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Than you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from.

He recalled how he became depressed and at first didn’t see a point in finishing his PhD. But he continued to devote himself to his studies.“If you understand how the universe operates, you control it in a way,”he said. Famous for his wor on blac holes and the origins of the universe, Hawing was also well-nown for bringing abstract physics concepts to the masses through his best-selling boos.Hawing survived longer than most people with Lou Gehrig’s disease, also nown as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. ALS attacs nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord(脊髓) that control the muscles. People gradually have more and more trouble breathing and moving as muscles weaen and wasteaway. There’s no cure and no way to reverse (倒转) the disease’s progression. Few people with ALS live longer than a decade.Hawing received around-the-cloc care, could only communicate by twitching his chee, and relied on a computer mounted to his wheelchair to convey his thoughts in a unique robotic monotone.Despite his diagnosis, Hawing remained active. In 2007, he floated lie an astronaut on an aircraft that created weightlessness by maing parabolic(抛物线) dives. “However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do.”he said.12. Why did Hawing remar that humans will not survive another 1,000 years?A. To warn the earth may not be suitable to live on.B. To mae his theory on cosmology widely accepted.C. To show the earth is becoming more and more fragile.D. To persuade human beings to further space eploration.13. What must human beings do if they want to survive according to Hawing?A.

AAmsterdam, the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands, is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, famous for its beautiful canals, top art museum, cycling culture, and Red Light District. Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. You’ll also want to check out Amsterdam’s Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark. The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a popular place for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.TransportationTravelers should be aware that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is one of the busiest airports in the world. This airport is located about 15 kilometers southwest of city center. You can catch a train from Schiphol to Amsterdam Central Station, which has many conn ecting routes. It’s typically not a good idea to drive a car to the city center because traffic is heavy and parking is difficult to find. Cycling is incredibly popular here, and it’s easy to find cheap bike rentals around town. Amsterdam has a flat terrain(地形) and is a great city to explore on foot.Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.Look for accommodations in Amsterdam’s South Dis trict, where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide, hop on a canal boat. They’re inexpensive and will give you a unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights, hotels, and rental cars before you book.1.Which attraction was built with the original purpose of drawing the rich?A.Albert Cuyp Market.B.

A fellow park goer got the cat to release its painful grasp by distracting the animal with a plastic water bottle.Mickey Ollson, the director of Wildlife World Zoo, told ABC that the jaguar won’t be harmed because of “human behavior”. He added that this wasn’t the first time that the animal has injured a guest who got too close, however. It’s not clear whether the park plans to re-evaluate the barrier around the exhibit, which has been described as a 3-foot wall. Leanne hopes that they will.“I was in the w rong for leaning over the barrier, but I do think the zoo should look into moving their fence back,” she told CBS News. “I’m not the first, and if they don’t move the fence, I’m probably not going to be the last.”Kitty Block, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, also urged the zoo and other parks to be cautious enough when it comes to separating the animals from people.“When various types of exhibitors promote all sorts of close meeting with wildlife, people get the mistaken idea that wild animals are approachable,” she said in a statement. “We urge the zoological community exhibitors to set a higher standard to protect people and to respect wildlife from a safe distance by doing away with public contact opportunities with wildlife of all species.”4.How did Leanne free from the danger of the jaguar?A.The zoo director helped her to get away from it.B.The jaguar was attracted by a bottle and let her go.C.Another park goer hurt the jaguar and it ran away.D.Leanne herself struggled with it and scared it away.5. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A. Human behavior cannot have any influences on the jaguar in the zoo.B. The jaguar tends to attack the guests unexpectedly however far they stay.C. Leanne is doubtful whether the barrier around the exhibit is safe enough.D. The zoo has ensured the barrier will be evaluated again after the accident.6.What did Kitty Block advise the zoo and parks to do?A.Be very cautious to separate the animals from people.B.Look into moving their fence back and clear the barrier.C.Set a higher standard to build up a zoological community.D.Encourage people to have frequent meetings with wildlife.CRobot vacuum cleaners aren’t a new concept, having been around for more than 15 years, but they have become greatly more helpful since the days of catching on rug hairs, running out of battery mid-clean and forgetting where they were.But the next generation of disc-shaped floor-cleaners could bring some of the most important upgrades yet, including being more autonomous than ever and knowing exactly where they are in your home and where you need them to be.iRobot’s latest Roombas, the i7 and i7+, shown off at a recent event in Tokyo, will be arriving in Australia in the coming months. Their key new feature: persistent mapping of your home. The ability to map not only makes the robot quicker and more efficient, but lets it integrate(融入) more closely with smart homes. Once it’s explored your house a few times, the i7 will present you with a map via its smart phone app, which Angle says tends to be “maybe 80 per cent right”.As the robot travels around cleaning up dust, it draws a floor plan and uses a sensor(传感器) to identify landmarks and objects. Unlike previous models, the i7 remembers this information, meaning it will learn the most efficient paths around your home over time.If you change the layout of your furniture, it will adapt the existing map rather than having to create a whole new one and if you have a multi-storey house, it simply makes multiple maps, and use s its learned landmarks to determine which floor it’s on (you’ll still need to carry it up the stairs).iRobot’s CEO and founder Colin Angle says the i7 class, the company’s 10th generation Roomba, is the robot he’s always wanted to build; capable of keeping a home’s floors clean with virtually no user input needed.“This robot has 30 times the processing power of its former generation,” he says. “So we’re fully into a situation today where we can be running machine learning and visual object recognition technology and very advanced algorithms(演算法; 运算法则) on the robot, to allow it to continue to work on increasingly complicated code.”7.According to the passage the robot cleaners invented 15 years ago could ______.A. catch on the hairs on the rugB.charge the battery mid-cleanC.draw the map of the homeD. know their exact home position8. The underlined word “layout” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by ______.A.arrangementB. designC. styleD. size9. Which of the following statements about the i7 and i7+ is true?A.i7 remembers the identified landmarks like former models.B.They can enter the room upstairs themselves and clean it.C.They can do better in math than the previous cleaners.D.i7 can present a map exactly via its smart phone app.10.What can be the best title of the passage?A.Technologies in the Cleaner.B. The Future of iRobots.C. The Development of iRobots.D. The Latest Robot Cleaner.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AChina is a land of bicycles. At least it was bac in 1992 when I traveled the country. Bac then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all blac. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want. It's fun watching people biing. They rush quicly through crossroads, move sillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewals(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied(陪伴) my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home. My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pac” of biers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I too the ride carefully.

Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shoc.Waling towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermaret, a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooed sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will mae her feel better,” he said. I was amaed that he’d come up with this sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and ased her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just tae it,” she replied. “I can’t tae your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(急救人员) had arrived, and were attending to the injured woman. As we waled up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him, “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to mae her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Than you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from.

Having spent his career decoding the universe and even eperienced weightlessness, he was urging the continuation of space eploration —for humanity’s sae. The 76-year-old Hawing once said he did not thin humans would survive another 1,000 years “without escaping beyond our fragile（脆弱的）planet.”The scientist made the remars before an audience of doctors, nurses and employees at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he toured a stem ce ll laboratory that’s focused on trying to slow the progression of Lou Gehrig’s disease.Hawing was diagnosed (诊断) with the neurological disorder 55 years ago while studying at Cambridge University. He recalled how he became depressed and at first didn’t see a point in finishing his PhD. But he continued to devote himself to his studies.“If you understand how the universe operates, you control it in a way,” he said. Famous for his wor on blac holes and the origins of the universe, Hawing was also well-nown for bringing abstract physics concepts to the masses through his best-selling boos.Hawing survived longer than most people with Lou Gehrig’s disease, also nown as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. ALS attacs nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord(脊髓) that control the muscles. People gradually have more and more trouble breathing and moving as muscles weaen and waste away. There’s no cure and no way to reverse (倒转) the disease’s progression. Few people with ALS live longer than a decade.Hawing received around-the-cloc care, could only communicate by twitching his chee, and relied on a computer mounted to his wheelchair to convey his thoughts in a unique robotic monotone.Despite his diagnosis, Hawing remained active. In 2007, he floated lie an astronaut on an aircraft that created weightlessness by maing parabolic(抛物线) dives. “However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do.” he said.12. Why did Hawing remar that humans will not survive another 1,000 years?A. To warn the earth may not be suitable to live on.B. To mae his theory on cosmology widely accepted.C. To show the earth is becoming more and more fragile.D. To persuade human beings to further space eploration.13. What must human beings do if they want to survive according to Hawing?A.

What if a person suffers from Lou Gehrig’s disease?A. They will be unable to wal or spea to others.B. They are liely to die within ten years generally.C. They can recover a little bit if they are treated early.D. They are mostly assisted by especially-designed robots15. What do Hawing’s achievements in science lie in?A. His interest in physics.B.
