Passage 7(2014江蘇蘇州工業(yè)園區(qū),C)

    “Another bad day at school?” my father asked as I came into the room.

    “ How could you tell? I didn’t shut the door heavily or any?thing, I replied.

    “I know moving to a new house has been hard on you.Leaving your friends and cousins behind is tough ,” Papa said. “ What you must remember is that,with a lot of hard work and some time,you will make new friends."

    “You don't know how hard it is. This year my baseball team would have won the championship.They won’t even give me a chance to pitch (投球) here. All I get to play is right field,and that's the worst!”

    Papa turned toward me. Things will get better,I promise you. Let me ask you,do you know why you were named David Lorenzo?” “Yes,your name is David and grandfather's name is Lorenzo." “Very good”and what makes youi. grandfather so important?”

    “ He was the first in the family to come to this country ,” 1 an?swered.

    “ That is only partly correct. Your grandfather was a very great man.In Mexico,he had been a teacher.When he came to America he could only get manual labor.(體力勞動(dòng)) jobs because he didn't speak the language. It took him two years before he spoke English well enough to be allowed to teach here,but he did it. He never complained because he knew change could be difficult. Did he ever tell you that?” my father asked.

    I looked down at my feet,ashamed at my behavior. “No.That must have been hard,” I said sheepishly.

    “Your grandfather taught me that if you let people see your tal?ent,they will accept you for who you are.I want you to always remem?ber what my father taught me,even if it takes a few years for people to see who you are ,” said Papa.

    All I could say was ,“ Okay. ” Then I asked ,“ What should I do now?”

Laughing,Papa said ,“How about pitching? You need some practice."

Passage 9(2011 連云港,D)    

       Robots have come a long way since 15th century. We’ve got robots to build cars,carry heavy things,work in dangerous places and explore planets.But things haven’t stopped there.

      In 1986,Honda made a robot called ASIMO. And now,it has been developed greatly. Standing at 130cm and weighing 54kg,ASIMO is very much like a small astronaut wearing a bag on the back. And he can walk,fight,climb and run fast.Isn't it wonderful?

       The world's first robot teacher is Saya.With her human-like face,she can show expressions like happiness,surprise,sadness,dislike,fear and she can even smile or show anger at students,which look much like a real teacher^.To do this,her rubber skin is pulled from the back with motors inside .And her eyes and moutli have wires (電線) too. She can also say some simple words like“ hello” or“ thank you 

      In the UK,the development of   robots is exciting.The mini-robots       will send food,clean floors,collect       and throw away waste.These robots can       open doors by themselves and stop if       anything or anyone is in the way.

      These mini-robots are very useful for controlling infection (傳染) .Usually clean and dirty work is done by the same person,but here,you’ll have robots that do “ dirty work ”,like collecting dirty sheets,or taking away hospital waste;and you’ll have robots that do“ clean work”,like bringing meals or clean sheets to patients. The robots have separate work so there no way for infection,which is great.But of course,ro?bots would not take the place of humans,but would free up more time for nurses to be with patients.

      But if this is what it's like in 2011,what's it going to be like in 2021?

1. In the following,which is ASIMO’s behavior?

   A. Smiling at people,saying“hello”.

   B. Sending food or opening doors by himself.

   C. Fighting,climbing or running fast.

   D. Collecting waste for patients.

2. What makes Saya look real?

   A. Her face and rich expressions.

   B. Her clothes and shoes.

   C. Her walking and running speed.

   D. Her rich knowledge.

3. Which of the following is tme according to the passage?

   A. Robots have come a long way since 1986.

   B. The first robot teacher was made by Honda.

    C. Saya looks like a small astronaut.

    D. lf anyone or anything is in the way,mini-robots will stop.

4. The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that   .

      A. nurses would have more free time with patients

     B. robots would not take the place of humans

     C. dirty and clean work is always done by the same person

     D.   mini-robots are useful for controlling infection

        Stop Smoking Now—We Can Help!

    In almost every US city and town,there are local organizations to help people stop smoking. One of the most popular and successful is the California Smokers 5 Helpline. Here is a page from one of their leaflets.

    When you really want a cigarette— try the three Ds:

    1. Delay : Look at your watch and wait for a couple of minutes. If you can wait two minutes,you won’t want to smoke.

    2. Drink something : If you drink water or some other drinks,you will reduce the need to have something in your mouth.

    3. Deep breathing: Breathe in slowly and deeply. Count to five when your lungs are full. Then breathe out slowly. Repeat several times.

    And here are some ideas from Florida Anti-smoking Club to help people to give up smoking:

    1. Make a plan: Make a list of friends who smoke and places where you smoke.Don’t see those people and don't go to those places!

    2. Keep busy: Instead of smoking,make a phone call,take a short walk or talk with a friend.

    3. Develop new interests: Exercise walking,biking,jogging,swimming or taking a music class—helps you to forget about cigarettes.

    It is now against the law for anyone to smoke anywhere at any time in our schools.So set a date,and act at once to give up smoking for your own good.

    請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下面短文,在短文后表格中的空白處填上適當(dāng) 的單詞(注意:每空1個(gè)單詞) 。

    CCTV cameras catch action In UK,Closed Circuit Television ( CCTV) cameras are everywhere. They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe .But that's not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.

    One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale.She clearly doesn’t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden,she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a large dustbin. Lola was saved fifteen hours later.And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined (罰款) £ 250 and was not allowed to own pets for five years.

    Another video shows ‘‘Britain's drunkest man”. He's been at a party at London's Savoy Hotel. And he’d obviously had a few too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a. m., he was kicked out for being too drunk.So,he decided to walk home. On the way,CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly...A Savoy Hotel waiter later said, “It's amazing he didn't hurt himself badly."     Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band The Get Out Clause didn't have any money to make a music video. So,they came up with an unbelievable idea.They set up their instruments ( 樂器 ) and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then,according to the English Freedom of Information Act,they asked for a copy of all the footages (視頻) ,which they edited. The result is that a totally new music video was made,and it didn't cost them a penny.

Passage 2 ( 2015江蘇蘇州市區(qū)聯(lián)考,D) 

    There was one thing that I found rather strange on my first day as a housekeeper at Monk's House.The floors in the house were very thin.The bathroom was right above the kitchen,and when Mrs.Woolf was having her bath before breakfast,! could hear her talking to her- self.On and on she went,talk,talk,and talk,asking questions and giving herself the answers. I thought there must he two or three people there with her. When Mr. Woolf saw lhat I looked surprised,he told me that Mrs. Woolf always said out loud the sentences that she had written during the night. She needed to know if they sounded right and the bathroom was a good place for trying them out.

    1 was not allowed to make coffee at. Monk s House Mr. and Mrs. Woolf were very particular (挑剔的) about coffee ami always made it themselves—so Mr. Woolf came into the kitchen at eiglit o'clock evei"y morning to make it. When we carried breakfast to Mrs. Woolfs room,l noticed that she had always been working during the night.There were pencils and paper beside her bed so that when she woke up,she could work,and sometimes il seemed as though she had had very little sleep.

    Mrs. Woolfs bedroom was outside the house in the garden. I used to think how inconvenient.(不方便的) it must be to have to go out in the rain to go to bed.Her bedroom had been connected to the back of the house : the door faced the garden and a window at the side opened out on to a field. Because ihe writing-room was small,Mr. Woolf had built a large one for her at the end of the garden against the church wall.

    I can always remember her coming to the house each day from the writing-room when 1 rang the bell for lunch at one o ’clock. She used to come in,smoking one of her favourite cigarettes,which were bought by Mr. Woolf for her in London.She was tall and thin and very pretty.She had large eyes and a wide mouth.She wore long skirts— usually blue or brown—in the fashion of the day,and silk jackets of the same colour.Mrs.Woolf wor^ clothes that suited her well.! ironed them for her and did any sewing that was neressai7—she was not able to sew,although sometimes she liked to try.There was one thing in the kitchen that Mrs.Woolf was very good at doing;she could make beautiful bread.

1. What was very unusual about Monk's House?

  A. Mrs.Woolfs bedroom door opened on to the garden.

  B. The kitchen window looked out over fields.

  C.The breakfast room was upstairs.

  D. The bathroom was right above the kitchen.
