Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of .

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She her head and continued to sew the quilt.

I was worried because I thought I had her. I was and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t me.” He said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.

A Robot Fish has been developed by National University of Singapore’s researchers from the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering.This robot fish has movements which have been inspired by the movements of the carp(鯉魚).

There are various purposes that it can be used for.It can help in underwater archaeology ( 考古學(xué) ).For example, it can enter a sunken city where human divers cannot enter.Just like a fish , it can also look at all the comers of particular wreckage.This robot can also be used for general purposes such as detection of leakages in a pipeline or for laying down communication cables across oceans.It also has possible military uses.

In order to copy carp movements, Mr.Fan studied the movements of the fish for around 3 months.He studied all the different movements of carp using different cameras and then converted these movements mathematically to transfer this data to the robot using many actuators(驅(qū)動(dòng)器).

Professor Xu commented on the robot that the current models that copy fish movements are capable only of 2D movements which limits their capability as they are not able to dive into water.He said that his model is the first model with 3D movements which allows it to dive as well as float with the help of its fins, just as a normal fish would do.Hence, this fish model robot has much greater movement capability.It would be much harder for enemies to detect as compared to traditional ones when used for military purposes.

The researches want to make their robot fish even smaller, more realistic while adding more sensors such as GPS and video camera to it.This will improve its autonomous 3D movement.They are also planning to test the fish by giving it more difficult tasks such as detecting various objects.

1.The author gave an example in paragraph 2 _____.

A.to introduce the Robot Fish can help in underwater archaeology

B.to show the Robot Fish can be used for general purposes

C.to show the Robot Fish can lay down communication cables across oceans

D.to tell us the Robot Fish has possible military uses

2.Which is NOT true about the 3D Robot Fish?

A.It is capable of diving into water.

B.It cannot dive into water.

C.It can float using its fins.

D.It is difficult to detect.

3.What' s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.The researchers will give the robot more difficult tasks.

B.The researches want to make their robot smaller.

C.The researchers are going to test the robot.

D.The researches plan to improve the robot.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A.First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement used widely

B.First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement treading the ocean

C.First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement created in Singapore

D.First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement's general purposes

科目:高中英語 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年河南濮陽第一中學(xué)高三上期中英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

“It takes an entire village to raise a child.” That’s an old proverb(諺語) that is being quoted more and more often these days. And I’m pleased about that.

Today, more and more schools are reaching out to involve parents, community members and businesses to help shape a child’s future.

Parents need to be involved in their children’s education in many ways. Helping children with homework and studying, going on a field trip, teaching a craft or coaching a child’s sports team are all great ways to be involved with your child’s education. And don’t forget to communicate with teachers---they need and respect your input. Studies show that children learn more and schools function better when parents and schools work together. It’s important to stay in touch with your child’s education all through his or her school career.

Communities can help children create and achieve new goals. Help with homework, read to a child, coach a children’s team, or provide emotional support. Help solve problems and build self-esteem. Kids need role models and advisers can be role models by sharing their experiences and wisdom.

Businesses can also help shape our children’s future. Invite a class from your local school to visit your workplace. You may be providing a glimpse that opens a new world of possibilities. Show students what goes on during a typical day. Give a mini course for students: how to use a computer; how products are made; how machinery works. You may have a developing electrician, teacher, nurse, or even a newspaper reporter on your hands.

It really does take an entire village to raise a child. So share the responsibility---and the joy---of bringing a child to his or her full potential.

1.The implied advice in the proverb “It takes an entire village to raise a child.” is that ______.

A. All the people in a village should give food to a child.

B.Schools, parents, and other organizations should share the responsibility

of shaping a child’s future.

C. Children’s should be brought up in the village where they were born.

D. Schools should be set up in the village where a child was raised.

2. The text was written mainly for _______________.

A. parents and members in organizations

B. teachers and students

C. newspaper reporters and developing electricians

D. education experts and government officials

3. Students can get developed in practical working skill through ______.

A. parental involvement B. community activities

C. business training D. school teaching

4.Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Parents play an important part in children’s education.

B. Communities have not a bit effect on the way to new and high ideal.

C. Educating a child well demands of the work not only from school but from other organizations.

D. Businesses may arrange some training courses for students.

科目:高中英語 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年河北邢臺(tái)第二中學(xué)高三上第四次月考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic (機(jī)械師) had it fixed in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine. I was amazed. The sad truth is: Great talent is not enough.

I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100, 000 a year. A business consultant(顧問)who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase, “They are one skill away from great wealth.”

There is an old saying that goes, “Job means just over broke (破產(chǎn))”. And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence, most workers “l(fā)ive within their means”. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn.

When I ask the classes I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonalds ?” almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask, “So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonalds makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonalds is excellent at business systems. The reason so many talented people are poor is that they focus on building a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.

1.The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that________.

A. he is just one of the talented people

B. he is ready to help others

C. he has a sharp sense of hearing

D. he knows little about car repairing

2.“Live within their means” in the third paragraph can be best replaced by_______ .

A. spend more than they can afford

B. do in their own way

C. live in their own circle

D. live within what they earn

3.Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?

A. They don't work hard enough.

B. They lack financial intelligence.

C. They don't make full use of their talents.

D. They have no specialized skills.

4.The main purpose of the author is to tell us_________ .

A. how young people can find a satisfactory job

B. what schools should teach students

C. why so many talented people are poor

D. how McDonalds makes much money
