27、 I have seen Charlotte waiting for a bus many times. She is in her 80s. She is small and thin. She lives in a nursing home near my home. I have got to know her as I stop and give her a lift any time I see her. Even if I am going in the opposite direction or I have just been out for a pint of milk, I still give her a lift.
Charlotte looks elderly and weak but last time I gave her a lift she told me she’d been on a helicopter ride, even showing photos to prove it! She had gone with her daughter and granddaughter and she looked as if she enjoyed the whole experience! I told her she was braver than I was! I also loved to do that in this technological age, and her family were considerate enough to print the photos out for Charlotte.
I met her recently in Lisburn town center where we both live. She was sitting on a bench with a few items of shopping. I asked her if I could give her a lift home, though she didn’t recognize me, as I was out of context for her - that is, I was not in my car. She explained she was going to visit the elderly in a nearby home. She thanked me for my offer but did not want to take me out of my way and was happy to take a bus as she usually do when going there. I told her it was my pleasure and planned to meet her a few minutes later when I had picked up my shopping. Charlotte happily agreed. I picked her up and dropped her off at the home. She told me someone else usually brought her home.
Charlotte might look like a thin weak old lady in her 80s but I can see through that, she’s young at heart, she can soar high into the sky and at the same time she’s grounded enough to visit “the elderly” who may need a visit, company and a friendly face.
When I grow up I want to be as young as Charlotte.
【1】Why does the author mention the helicopter ride in Para.2?
A.To show Charlotte’s passion for life.
B.To praise Charlotte’s considerate family.
C.To explain Charlotte’s interest in aircrafts.
D.To prove Charlotte’s good physical condition.
【2】What can we learn from Para.3?
A.Charlotte recognized me the moment she saw me.
B.That day Charlotte took a bus to the nearby home.
C.It was a habit for Charlotte to visit the elderly in the nearby home.
D.Later I drove over to pick Charlotte up and brought her back.
【3】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Tips on How to Grow Old
B.Happiness and Fun in the Old Age
C.Friendship Formed on Car Rides
D.A Young Lady Called Charlotte
28、Working robots are typically big, simple and strong. They are large pre-programmed units working in dangerous and dull jobs. But the growing trend towards cooperative robots , or cobots ,which work in harmony with humans is changing robotic use worldwide.
The fact is that most industrial robots were not designed to do with unpredictable human environments.By cutting robots down to the desktop size and embedding(嵌入) them with sensors and AI , the next generation of cobots will feel our presence , learn from us and combine with us better. Lightweight and portable cobots can work in less space and share it with people rather than being caged off. Decreasing costs for robotic systems make them more affordable to small businesses , and their ease of setting up and programmability makes them simple to develop.
Although the cooperative robot is relatively novel , the initial concept was invented in 1996.Acobot patent was filed in 1997 , which detailed "an instrument and method for direct physical interaction between a person and a general-purpose operator controlled by a computer".The idea of robotic feedback(反馈) was also built-in so that cobots would redirect or control motions that originate with the operator through physical guidance.
The future of cobot working is likely to change as newer interfaces and ways of interacting are developed.Voice commands are bound to be a feature as natural language processing systems become more widespread.Robotic movements and interactions will be controlled using non-invasive brain control interfaces.Unplanned changes to production and safer interaction with humans will then require a step-change in robot learning.
Cobots will learn directly from human interaction or even from virtual simulations(模拟) that will help them adapt to real-world situations.Open robotics platforms , such as Carnegie Mellon University's LoCoBot or Elephant Robotics' Catbot , mean that programmers can share the skills they have developed via the cloud.Cobot carers , such as ElliQ , the companion robot , ceiling-mounted rail robots , or even IKEA' s robotic furniture , promise a nice future of cooperation.
【1】What makes cobots more suitable to small firms?
A.The desktop size.
B.Sensors and AI.
C.Cheap robotic systems.
D.Their ease of programmability.
【2】What does the underlined word "interaction" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Change.
B.Competition.
C.Difference.
D.Communication.
【3】Which of the following is a characteristic of the future cobots?
A.Voice control.
B.Unplanned production changes.
C.Working in dangerous environments.
D.Direct physical interaction with humans.
【4】What does the author suggest doing about cobots?
A.Learning from humans.
B.Combining with humans.
C.Opening robotics platforms.
D.Sharing programming skills.
29、For a bird, to fly hundreds or thousands of miles each spring and fall is a difficult and dangerous journey, one that not all birds can survive. 【1】 There is more than one single reason for different birds to migrate(迁徙), but it all comes down to survival.
Birds are migrating for a meal.
For all birds, one of the main driving forces behind migration is food. If all birds were to stay in the same places year-round, food there would become not enough. 【2】 But as the food supplies decrease in the fall, they return to the southern areas.
【3】
Over millions of years, birds have developed different migration patterns, times and destinations. This helps birds take advantage of a wide variety of suitable conditions to raise their young, which increases the survival chances of the young birds.
Birds are migrating because of climate changes.
Changes in climate can affect migration. Many birds leave the Arctic for example, when temperatures begin to fall. They need warmer habitats. Similarly, the hottest regions can be an unpleasant environment for raising young birds. 【4】
Birds are migrating because of predators.
Habitats that have rich food sources also attract a greater number of predators who may kill birds. 【5】 Many birds even migrate to specialized habitats that are nearly inaccessible to predators, such as coastal cliffs or rocky offshore islands.
A.So why do birds migrate?
B.Birds are migrating for their young.
C.So how do young birds migrate?
D.Birds are migrating because of diseases.
E.It is beneficial to lay eggs further north in cooler areas.
F.Birds that migrate to different habitats can avoid being eaten by predators.
G.As food sources are rich in the north each spring, millions of birds migrate from south to those areas.

33、 A video last week showed a mini house in a high chair eating a bowl of carrots. It might seem ridiculous, but it might also be the logical extension of a growing trend; treating animals as human and treating pet as children, _______ to the toddler (学步的小孩)who eats from the same chair.
_______ of this attitude are everywhere, ranging from the innocent to the near-insane. Some people _______ their pets for Halloween, throw them birthday parties, or create social media accounts for them. Five-star cat resorts offer spa services. Yoga studios now offer “doga” classes. Stores sell pet pans and bikinis, and doctors will perform cosmetic surgery in case your pet needs a facelift.
There seems to be _______ between pets and children. An increasingly large group of people who genuinely believe that having a pet is the same thing as being a parent. They _______ the language of parenthood with their pets, calling themselves “mommy” or “daddy” when talking to their “baby”. Of course, it’s one thing to use such language _______, as an expression of love or a reflection of the great joy that pets, like children, can create. But it’s quite another to use this language literally(照字面意思地).
Using _______ labels for things not only blurs (使…模糊)the real lines between pets and people but also leads to dangerous misbelief. What if a woman thinks she knows what a mon of two kids if going through because she’s a “mom” to two cats or a man believes having a baby won’t be much different from being a “dad” to a dog?
Every pet has its own parent—another cat or dog that feed and teaches it to survive in the animal kingdom. Our love for pets results from their _______ from us, but once we have them, we treat them as people, taming and teaching them how to pee(撒尿)in the tight place and not drink from the toilet. Sometimes, this goes _______, leading to horrible industries like pet cosmetic surgery. But we can’t call our role with pets “parenting” when we do the _______ of what a pets parent would do.
_______, “pet parents” claim that they do everything real parents do – feed, bathe, cuddle, clean up, care for, and love. Indeed, all these actions constitute part of the routines of true parenthood. But pet parents cannot teach character and morality to cats and dogs, which is the most important job of a parent. Having a child means _______ another mind and soul for adulthood and independence. Having a pet child means keeping an animal obedient and _______ so it never leaves as a child will.
Pet and children serve different roles. Ignoring or denying these differences _______ neither creatures nor people. Calling a pet a child, or yourself its parent, reflects a _______ of what animals are and what parenting is. We can call pets “pets” without loving them any less.

Smell the flowers before you go to sleep and you may just end up with rosy dreams. Have a whiff of rotten(腐烂的)eggs during the night and your dreams may be【1】(pleasant). So says researcher Dr. Boris Stuck, 【2】invited sleeping volunteers to a rose vs. rotten egg test in the University Hospital Mannheim in Germany.

"Water over the dam" is another expression about a past event. It is something that cannot be 【4】. The expression comes from the idea that water that has 【5】 a dam cannot be brought back again. When a friend is 【6】 by a mistake she has made, you might tell her to forget about it. You say it is water over the dam.
Another common expression, "to hold water," is about the strength or weakness of an idea or opinion that you may be arguing about. It probably comes from the way of testing the 【7】 of a container.

Tablets are really useful devices, but their big screens always make them a burden to carry around without a bag. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a phone with the powers of a tablet that could be folded up and fit 【1】 into the hand?
Now something like a tablet-shaped but fold-able phone is about to become 【2】. In February, South Korean electronics company Samsung and China’s Huawei both unveiled fold-able phones Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X 【3】. Mobile phone use has entered the “fold-able future”, The Verge noted.
The technology could change our lives in significant ways. These devices, due to their 【4】 screens, give us the larger screens we want. Meanwhile, they still fit easily into the pocket. As USA Today noted, they’re “the 【5】 of a small tablets and smart-phone, all in a single device”.
The technology could 【6】 other devices too. For example, we could make TVs that stick to walls like posters, or fold up easily to hide away in drawers. In crowded modem cities, they will help us to 【7】 available space.
In a keynote address, Samsung’s senior vice president of mobile product marketing, Justin Denison, called the fold-able screen “the 【8】 for the smart-phone of tomorrow.” “It’s a balank canvas for us to do something beautiful together,” he said.
So is there nothing to stand in the way of the fold-able future?
According to tech news website Android authority, the necessary displays were difficult to produce. In 2012, nine out of every to OLED screens produced were 【9】. Today, that 10 percent rate has been improved to between 50 and 90 percent. However, at present these fold-able devices are expensive. For example, the price of Huawei Mate X is 17,500 RMB. That’s a price that may 【10】 the majority of people.
But if the fold-able device isn’t going to change the world overnight, there is no doubt that it is coming.
Patrick Moor-head, an industry analyst told The Verge, “Few are debating if fold-able or roll-able mobile displays are the future of smart-phones; the only question is when and by whom.”
