He can even think for himself and figure out what you need.It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him?Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have kept thinking about the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable.This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor (盔甲(kuījiǎ)) that clearly shows its robot status.“As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable,〞 Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, told the BBC.But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives.A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are “necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people〞, such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent said that robots should notbe allowed to participate, because as robots become more advanced and complicated, parents may tend to hand over too much responsibility to them.No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us.21. What is the purpose of the text?A. To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy.B. To discuss problems related to designing robotsC. To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives.D. To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more.22. Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot?A. To better protect it.B. To make it look cool and modern.C. To make it clearly different from a human.D. To keep its price down.23. According to the paragraph before the last one, most of the people interviewed __________.A. welcome robots into their homesB. believe robots are useful for certain dangerous tasksC. think families with children shouldn’t use robots for houseworkD. are afraid that children will become less responsible if robots take care of them24. Which best describes the author’s tone in the article?A. Objective(客观(kèguān)的).B. Critical(批评(pī píng)的).C. Admiring.D. Anxious.25. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The brand new robot in Switzerland can do everything human beings can.B. Scientists have long been dreaming of creating human-like robots.C. Robots in the future will serve as human beings’ good friends.D. People won’t be comfortable with robots like a machine in the house.BGuide to Stockholm University LibraryOur library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying environment.ZonesThe library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs.

What should NOT be brought into the library?A. Mobile phonesB. Orange juiceC. CandyD. SandwichesCEating too much fatty food，exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately：the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure〔暴露(bàolù)〕to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can cause heart attack or stroke〔中风(zhòng fēng)〕 within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one report of the research, scientistsfound that people exposed to high levels of pollutants〔污染物〕were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. Anotherstudy of stroke patients showed that even air that theU.S. Environmental Protection Agency〔EPA〕considers to be of “moderate〞(良好(liánghǎo)) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.31.WHAT may cause heart disease?A.eating too muchB.drink too much32.The text mainly discusses the relationship between _________ .A. heart problems and air qualityB. heart problems and exercisingC. heart problems and smokingD. heart problems and fatty food33.The underlined word “modest〞 in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________ .A. relatively highB. extremely lowC. relatively lowD. extremely high34 . We can learn from the text that __________？A. eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B. the EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C. moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.D. stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.he author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to _________ .A. informB. persuadeC. describeD. EntertainDWhat do you see from a handful of seeds? Some see green plants, some see blooming flowers, or just seeds. But one group of Shanghai students saw an opportu¬nity to make money.Eight students from No 2 Secondary School Attached to East China NormalUni¬versity starte d a virtual company selling different seeds and seed products. They successfully sold 28 pictures pasted with different seeds at a campus auction a week a¬go. The company, which has recruited around 20 student staff members, has earned over 2000 yuan in the past three months."We donated part of the money to a poor school in the countryside of Anhui Province. It's great to realize our ideal of ‘spreading love and culture with seeds’ after many tests and lots of hard work," said Senior 2 Shi Chen, CEO ofthe company.Just like any other company, Shi's didn't develop smoothly. Shi and heryoung colleagues used to sell fresh flowers and old books, and later found seeds might be something that their company could engage in. They bought seeds of various plants and flowers at low prices from a local farm and sold them in schools or on streets. The creative students also made accessories and pictures with different seeds.With little business knowledge, the students had to learn new skills as the lead¬ers of differe nt departments, such as public relations (PR), sales and marketing. They persuaded a joint Sino-French company near their school to give them training in business management. They also asked some local businessmen to act as their consul¬tants." They helped us overcome our shyness. We also learned quite a lot of business theory. I found communication skills and teamwork are very important for my job," said Senior 1 Qian Yifei.The 16-year-old was elected as PR manager thanks to her talent for speaking. She is also in charge of after sales service, dealing with complaints and providing suggestions.As the head of the company, CEO Shi has a lot more to think about. First of all, she has to learn how to make her colleagues work efficiently as the company only opens at weekends due to all their studies. So she established a system to evaluate every one's performance, in terms of punctuality, efficiency, profits knowledge and so on."It makes the company more formal," she said.36. At a campus auction a week ago, they ________ .A. sold 28 green plants with different flowersB. sold 28 seeds pasted with different picturesC. sold 28 pictures pasted with different seedsD. sold 28 flowers pasted with different pictures37.What is the purpose of opening the company?A. To earn money for their education fees.B. To spread love and culture with seeds.C. To see whether they can open a company.D. To collect money to open a Hope School.38.What does the word "it" (in the last paragraph) refer to?A. Selling seeds.B. To have a person as CEO.C. Every colleague' s performance.D. To make her colleagues work efficiently.39. According to Qian Yifei, what matters most in dealing with public relations?A. Communication skills and teamwork.B. Creative and critical thinking.C. Educational background.D. Business theories.40.What can we learn from the passage?A. The company is owned by 8 students.B. The company is over-night successful.C. The company gets a lot of help from others.D. The company sells old books and fresh flowers.根据(gēnjù)短文内容，从下框的A~E 选项里面选出能概括(gàikuò)每一段主题的最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑，其中(q ízh ōng)有一项多余。

GaryC. GauriD. JorgeBStephen Hawking, a world famous British physic ist, also wrote a children’s book with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be “a bit like Harry Potter〞 but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙),〞 said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong over 10 years ago.Hawkin g is probably the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe. “My goal is simple,〞Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all.〞 Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼).Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves twofingers to control the computer’s mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).“I have had the disease for most of my life,〞Hawking once said. “Yet it has not sto pped me from being successful at my work.〞Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics(理论物理学).4. In the first paragraph, the book that Stephen Hawking wrote is_____.A. the same as Harry PotterB. about the magicC. is quite different from Harry Potter.D. about science5.From the text we can learn _____.A. Hawking is more famous than EinsteinB. BothHawking and Einstein are very famousC. Hawking is less famous than EinsteinD. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous6.What does the underlined pronoun “it〞 stand for?A. The universe.B. The magic.C. The goal.D. The book.7.According to the text, which of the following statements is the fact?A.The illness keeps him from moving and talking.B. Hawking has received many awards and prices except the Albert Einstein Award.C. He communicates with others by speaking.D. The illness stopped him from being successful.CIf you could have one superpower, what would it be?Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.We're not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don't be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.8.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Your life style.B.Your trouble in life.C. Your life value.D. Your life experience.9.Why does the author say they are inspired every day?A.Some people around them are making the world better.B.They possess different kinds of superpowersC.They have got the power to change the world.D.There are many powerful people in their life and work.10.What does the author stress in Paragraph 5?A.Rising above self and acting to help othersB.Learning more and contributing more to a cause.C.Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.D.Trying your best to help the poor.11.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.People’s efforts have been materially rewarded.B.Much more progress will be made in the near future.C.The work on health is the most valuable experience.D.The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.DYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off . You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious〔难为情〕when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness. Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.
