26、A 1.6-metre-tall robot may soon become the best friend for lonely elderly people, as Chinese scientists are making the final sprint (冲刺) towards its market launch (投放), said a senior researcher on the robot project on Saturday.

“We are working on testing the exact functions and ways to reduce the cost in preparations for an expected market launch of the robot in two to three years,” said Li Ruifeng, a member of the project.

He said the team hoped to reduce the cost so that the robot can be priced at 30, 000 to 50, 000 yuan, which is expected to be an affordable price for most of China’s better-off families.

27、   Lord Robert Winston was sitting on a train,when he found himself becoming steadily angry. Winston is normally a fairly amiable man. What was driving him slowly insane was the particular behavior of another passenger. Ignoring the child with her, the woman had picked up her phone and begun what would become a very loud conversation filled with boring facts.

Winston did try to ignore it,but there is something fundamentally un-ignorable about a loud, one-sided conversation. It was then that Lord Winston made a mistake. He began to tweet(网上发 about the woman. He took photos of her and sent them out to his more than 40,000 followers.

When the train had finally arrived at its destination, Winston quickly ran off. He had had enough of what he described as her "rudeness."But the woman faced an unusual surprise. The press had picked up on Winston's tweets. They were waiting for her on the platform.When they excitedly showed her Winston's messages,the woman's face fell, She also suddenly found herself using just one word to describe Winston's actions:"rude".

We find ourselves living at a time of incredible rudeness. Social media has taught the world that it needs to have an opinion, on everything,at all times. Reality television has taught us to celebrate meanness(不友好)，so long as that meanness is delivered as “honesty.”So what can we do about the rising tide of rudeness?

Winston shone a spotlight on that woman's behaviors, but he did not confront it, and he did not stop it. Instead,that spotlight was shone weakly from afar, shaming her by taking an almost rudimentary(原始的)form of revenge Often, the trick to handling rudeness is far more elegant, and can be done with the gentle delivery of a sentence as simple as “just stop."

When we see it happen in a store, we must step up and say,"Just stop."If it happens to a colleague,we must point t out Because once a rude pt 12 )s had the looking glass held up to them and can see their actions through the eyes of others, they are far more likely to end that behavior themselves.

【1】What's the best title of this article?

A．Before You Are Rude

B．When Someone Is Rude

D．Unless You Can Stop Rudeness

【2】What does the underlined word "amiable" most probably mean?

29、Science fiction pioneer and writer Wu Yan won this year’s National Outstanding Children’s Literature Award for his latest work China Orbit. The book focuses on the development of the Chinese aerospace (航空航天) industry, and it was inspired by the planning and preparation for China’s first but canceled manned spacecraft, “Shuguang 1”, also known as Project 714, during the late 1960s and early 1970s.

“I collected many historical documents and stories and started writing decades ago,” Wu remembered. Partly based on Wu’s own experiences in the 1970s, the book is a combination of reality and fiction, and in some ways his own memoir (回忆录) was added into the science fiction. This innovative and unique writing method makes the book stand out and has even stirred up a debate on how to categorize it. Is it science fiction, popular science, children’s literature, or aerospace literature?

His fellow science fiction writer Liu Cixin, author of The Three-Body Problem, sees it more deeply, and believes China Orbit is not really children’s science fiction or popular science. He thinks it is too complicated to be classed under a single category. He speaks highly of China Orbit as a unique science fiction novel that vividly shows a child’s real-life experience in a military camp of a specific era.

In Wu’s opinion, China is a big market for children’s science fiction, but it still lacks extraordinary works. He warned people not to try to earn quick money from it after The Three-Body Problem frenzy and movie blockbuster The Wandering Earth because Chinese science fiction still has a long way to go. “We need to build Chinese science fiction step by step, with an accumulation (积累) of really great works. We need to innovate, and treat it as part of building China’s new culture,” Wu said.

【1】What is the book China Orbit mainly about?

A．The space industry in China.

B．The introduction to Project 714.

C．Stories about Chinese outstanding astronauts.

D．Preparations for China’s first manned spacecraft.

【2】What is Wu’s approach to writing China Orbit?

A．He organizes the writing by time.

B．He tells the story in the form of debate.

C．He focuses on creating the role of children.

D．He combines his personal experiences with fiction.

【3】What is Liu Cixin’s attitude to China Orbit?

A．Doubtful.

B．Unclear.

C．Favorable.

D．Tolerant.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．China Orbit has great commercial value.

B．Chinese science movies are of poor quality.

C．Innovation is crucial to Chinese science fiction.

D．Wu Yan is disappointed at the Chinese film market.
