21、When I was in primary school, I was actually a little shy. One thing that really frightened me was speaking in front of many people, whether strangers or acquaintances (熟人). It was my sixth-grade teacher, Mr. Bamick, who helped me get past that. That year we had to make four oral (口头的) book reports in front of the class. Some of the kids were even glad to do it, but I was scared to death. Mr. Bamick recognized my fear, so be told me to do a report on a book that was about something that really interested me. So I did the first report on baseball.

When it came time for me to present it to the class, Mr. Bamick cut me some slack and let me read the report rather than give it from memory. Some of my classmates laughed at me, but Mr. Bamick defended (为……辩解) me. By the end of the year I had completed all four of the oral book reports. It wasn’t easy or comfortable for me, but I did it.

Years later I realized that Mr. Bamick did me a great favor in sixth grade. One of the chances I got when I won a tennis tournament (锦标赛) was to make comments to the fans who attended the match. Some of those were carried live on television and all of them were before thousands of people. It was still not one of my favorite things to do, but, with Mr. Bamick’s help, I got through it from time to time. Before long, I was asked to bring my favorite childhood teacher to a national event in Dallas. 1 was excited when Mr. Bamick joined me for the event. It meant a lot to me that he was there.

Mr. Bamick believed in me and helped me to believe in myself. It was he who helped me build the person I became.

23、Traveling the world is a dream for many people, but negotiating airports isn't always pleasant. No one likes to stand in a long line waiting to check in for a flight. Fortunately, Taoyuan International Airport makes the process a breeze.

To better serve travelers, the airport launched its In-Town Check-In   service, located in section A1 at Taipei Main Station. It helps passengers save time by offering them a way to check their baggage before arriving at the airport. Passengers can choose to use online or smartphone check-in. At the In-Town Check-In, passengers simply scan a QR code from their phone to print baggage tags, which they affix （黏上) to their bags. Now passengers' bags are ready for the Self Baggage Drop service provided in section A1. Check-in. This way is convenient and hassle-free.

Passengers who wish to check in at the airport can also use the airport's convenient kiosks（小亭）.Using the kiosk is quite similar to checking in on a smartphone. But instead of scanning a smartphone, passengers will need to scan their passport in order to print out their boarding pass. Afterward, passengers can enjoy the benefit of the Self Baggage Drop service available at Terminal 2.

24、Imagine wearing high-tech body armor (盔甲) that makes you super strong and tireless. Such technology, more specifically called an exoskeleton, sounds like the preserve of the Iron Man series of superhero movies. Yet the equipment is increasingly being worn in real life around the world. And one manufacturer—California’s SuitX—expects it to go mainstream. “There is no doubt in my mind that these devices will eventually be sold at hardware stores,” says SuitX’s founder Homayoon Kazerooni.

In simple terms, an exoskeleton is an external device that supports, covers and protects its user, giving greater levels of strength and endurance. Sometimes also referred to as “wearable robots”, they can be battery-powered and computer-operated, incorporating motors and hydraulics. Or they can be more simple, passive designs that use springs and dampeners.

“Integrating humans and machines into one system opens up a new realm of opportunity,” says Adrian Spragg, an expert on the technology at management consultancy Accenture. “Many of the early applications have been focused on military and medical applications, but in the last several years there’s been an explosion of use in a range of cases.” This expansion, which has come together with rapid advances in the technology, has seen exoskeletons increasingly used by manufacturing workers. Versions for consumers are also now being developed to help people more easily do everything from DIY, to walking, climbing stairs, and other daily activities. One report says sales are now due to rocket as a result. Global exoskeleton revenues (收入) are expected to explode from $392 million in 2020 to $6.8 billion in 2030, according to a study by ABI Research.

SuitX’s “suits” are now being tested by car manufacturers General Motors and Fiat. Prof Kazerooni, who is also the director of the University of California’s Berkeley Robotics and Human Engineering Laboratory, says that the primary benefit of the firm’s exoskeletons is to prevent muscle fatigue (疲劳).

“In general I see this development as very positive for occupational health and safety,” Prof Sandra Wachter says. “Machines are supposed to help us with dull, dangerous and dirty jobs. Problems, however, arise if robotics also double as workplace monitors. Are these suits tracking your movements, how fast you move, and how often you take breaks? Does a system compare this data with those of other workers to score or rank them? What happens if you move slower than others, or take breaks more often?”

【1】Why was the Iron Man was mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A．To inspire us to be strong and determined.

B．To remind us of the popular film Iron Man.

C．To urge the readers to buy the newly designed products.

D．To illustrate the technology—exoskeleton.

【2】What do the underlined word “rocket” mean in Paragraph 3?

A．Climb.

B．Crash.

C．Stabilize.

D．Vary.

【3】What do you know about an exoskeleton?

A．An exoskeleton is capable of working by itself using solar energy.

B．In the future, all the people will have to count on an exoskeleton.

C．An exoskeleton can be widely employed in our daily life.

D．Prof Kazerooni objects to the popularity of the exoskeleton.

【4】Which is the most suitable title for the text?

A．Iron Man Appeals to the Young

B．Exoskeletons Change Our Future Life

C．Everyone Can Be a Hero

D．Exoskeletons Replace Future Humans

26、Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the following passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

In the 19th century, there used to be a model of how to be a good person. There were floods of passion flowing through you. Your job, as captain of your soul, was to erect a dam to say no to laziness and greed.

These days that model is out of fashion. Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it. your will power is no longer like a dam.

The 19th-century character model was based on an understanding of free will Today, we know that free will is bounded. People can change their lives, but ordering change is not simple because many things are beyond our direct control.

Much of our behavior, for example, is guided by unconscious habits. Researchers at Duke University calculated that more than 40 percent of the actions we take are governed by habits, not actual decisions. Researchers have also come to understand the structure of habits- cue, routine and reward.

You can change your own personal habits. If you leave running shorts on the floor at night, that’ll be a cue to go running in the morning. Don’t try to ignore your afternoon snack craving. Every time you feel the cue for a snack, insert another routine. Take a walk. Their research thus implies a different character model, which is supposed to handle the neural networks inside.

To be an effective person, under this model, you are supposed to coolly examine your own unconscious habits. You are supposed to devise strategies to alter the cues and his is a bit disturbing, because the important habitual neural networks are not formed by mere routine, nor can they be reversed by clever cues. They are burned in by emotion and strengthened by strong yearnings.

If you want to change your life, don't just look for a clever cue. Commit yourself to some larger global belief.
