26、Rollins College’s graduate, Elizabeth Bonker gave a powerful speech at the school’s graduation ceremony using text-to-speech technology. “You have a voice. Use it,” she advised graduates. It seems funny that a non-speaking autistic (孤独症患者) encourages you to use your voice. However, her moving speech touched not only her fellow classmates but also the worldwide audience with a powerful message of hope.

Throughout her academic career, Elizabeth has studied hard to reach her goals at school and in life. She wrote a book, I Am in Here, which highlights the abilities of people like her with non-speaking autism. She also founded a non-profit organization called Communication 4 All.

Elizabeth has a form of autism that resulted in her losing the ability to speak when she was 15 months old. After she lost her speech her family helped her learn to communicate by typing. She has become a supporter of assistive communication and typing instruction for those with non-speaking autism.

“I have typed this speech with one finger with a communication partner holding a keyboard,” shared Elizabeth. She gave her persuasive speech through text-to-speech technology.

Elizabeth majored in social service with the purpose of helping the 31 million people in the world who have non-speaking autism. She strongly believes that service to others gives meaning to each individual and to those they serve.

Throughout her life, Elizabeth has sought a platform where others would hear and accept her. She ignored negative comments and the low expectations others had for her life. Instead, she walked down her own path and set out to realize her dreams using intellect, talent and determination. She encouraged her fellow classmates to use their education and the power of their own minds to help make their dream a reality.

27、   Some pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic, according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare. The study, published in the journal Biology Letters, is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal, influencing judgment.

Asher, a researcher at the University of Newcastle's Institute of Neuroscience, and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment. One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft, deep straw. After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks, the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.

“To do this, we trained each pig. In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets — pigs love them — and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans, which pigs find bitter­tasting,” a researcher said.

Over a number of training trials, pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets. On the contrary, they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.

The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations, to see how the pigs would react. Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside, showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets. Others, however, behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans, displaying pessimism.

The findings suggest that a one­size­fits­all answer to animal welfare issues does not exist. Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people, there is still cause for concern. Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.

【1】What was the study trying to figure out?

A.How to make pigs happier.

B.The similarities between humans and pigs.

C.How living environment affected pigs' mood.

D.How pigs' mood and personality affected their judgment.

【2】What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Simple. B.More comfortable.

C.Unpractical. D.Less free.

【3】What do the findings of the new research imply?

A.People should treat pigs equally.

B.People's health relies on meat quality.

C.People should meet pigs' various needs.

D.People's attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.

For comfort,to shut out the loud noise of the basement,Liesel opened one of her books and began to read.The book on top of the pile was The Whistler and she spoke it aloud to help her concentrate.She could hardly hear the opening paragraph herself

"What did you say?"Mama shouted,but Liesel ignored her.She remained focused on the first page.When she turned to page two,it was Rudy who noticed.He paid direct attention to what Liesel was reading,and he tapped his brother and his sisters,telling them to do the same.A quietness started spreading through the crowded basement.By page three,everyone was silent but Liesel.

She didn't dare to look up,but she could feel their frightened eyes following her as she read the words.Everyone listened.Only the sound of the turning page could be heard.Liesel read on.

For at least 20 minutes,she handed out the story.The youngest kids were comforted by her voice,and everyone else saw visions of the whistler running from the crime scene.Liesel did not.She was only reading the text word by word.

Only when the sirens（空袭解除警报）came into the basement again did someone interrupt her."We're safe,”said Mr.Jenson."Shhh!"said Frau Holtzapfel.

Liesel looked up."There are only two paragraphs till the end of the chapter,"she said,and she continued reading.Just the words.Out of respect,the adults kept everyone quiet,and Liesel finished chapter one of The Whistler.

29、Humans will come to love robots like they are family rather than consider them as the enemy, according to Sir Nigel Shadbolt, a professor of computer science at Oxford University. He says we are entering an age when robots will act as carers for the elderly and friends for lonely children. He also says that the fear that robots will destroy humans is baseless.

Sir Nigel Shadbolt also made the comments at the Hay Festival of Literature &Arts in Wales. “Do robots threaten (威胁) humans? Certainly, anything you see in Hollywood describes them that way,” he said. “They are usually mad, bad and dangerous. Basically, you don’t want to get too close to them. But this is to misunderstand where the real problem lies. It is not robots that should scare you. It is natural stupidity.”

The principal of Jesus College, Oxford, said he did understand why people were concerned about rapidly smartening robots, “Indeed, people begin to worry that the machines are going to wake up and that they are going to become super-capable (超能力的). I want to tell you that they are not.”

Instead of computers seeking to get closer to humans, Sir Nigel Shadbolt believes it will be the other way round, with humans wanting to build meaningful relationships with the machines. “It will not be long before these robots are the friends that grow up with our children and that look after us in elder care,” Sir Nigel Shadbolt said. “It doesn’t matter that there’s nobody at home but a very good robot.” Sir Nigel Shadbolt mentioned the video that appeared earlier this week about the burial of robot dogs in Japan. Mourners (悼念者) believe their robots have a soul that needs to be put to rest and they are much-loved members of the family.

【1】Sir Nigel Shadbolt thinks it is unnecessary for people to________.

A．make use of robots

B．feel scared of robots

C．doubt the role of robots

D．study the development of robots

【2】According to Sir Nigel Shadbolt, what actually causes people’s worry about robots?

A．Natural stupidity.

B．Hollywood movies.

C．The advertisements for robots.

D．The Hay Festival of Literature & Arts.

【3】What does Sir Nigel Shadbolt think will happen to robots in the near future?

A．They will be buried by their users.

B．They will offer to chat with us.

C．They will become our soul mates.

D．They will have closer relationships with humans.

【4】Which of the following could be the best title of the text?

A．Lovely Robot Dog

B．The Greatest Robot

C．Future New Family Member

D．Possible Enemy of Mankind

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

NASA is on a journey to Mars, with a goal of sending humans to the Red Planet in the 2030s. That journey is already well under way.

For decades, the agency and its partners have sent orbiters, landers and rovers（探测器）, 【1】 increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way for future human explorers. The Curiosity rover has gathered radiation data to help us protect future astronauts, and the upcoming Mars 2020 rover will study the 【2】 of Martian resources, including oxygen.

Building on the robotic legacy（遗产）, the human exploration of Mars crosses three thresholds（门槛）, each with 【3】 challenges as humans move farther from Earth: Earth Reliant, the Proving Ground, and Earth Independent.

Earth Reliant explorations is 【4】 on research aboard the International Space Station. The orbiting microgravity laboratory serves as a world - class test bed for the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions to deep space. Astronauts are learning about what it takes to live and work in space for long periods of time, improving our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronauts' health.

Next, we move into the Proving Ground, 【5】 a series of missions near the moon called “cislunar space” to test the capabilities we will need to live and work at Mars. Astronauts on the space station are only hours away from Earth, but the proving ground is days away, a(n) 【6】 stepping stone to a Mars mission, which will be months away from home.

Also in the 2020s, we’ll send astronauts on a year-long mission into this deep space proving ground, confirming habitation and testing our 【7】 for Mars.

Finally, we become Earth Independent, building on the knowledge 【8】 on the space station and in deep space to send humans to low-Mars orbit in the early 2030s.

This phase will also test the entry, descent（降落）and landing techniques needed to get to the Martin surface and study what's needed for in-situ resource utilization or "living off the land". NASA is already studying the 【9】 "Exploration Zones" on Mars that would offer compelling science research and provide resources our astronauts can use.

There are challenges to 【10】 Mars, but we know they are solvable. We are well on our way to getting there, landing there, and living there.
