Some do very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. And some do one simple job. When an automatic washing machine is swit
17、ched on, water pours in. The machine waits until the water is warm enough for washing clothes. It does this by “feedback(反应). Information about what is happening is feedback into the robot to tell what to do next. Our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback. They tell us what is going on around
18、 us. So robots are like human beings in two ways.They work and they have feedback.In some ways robots are better than human beings. They work quickly and do not make mistakes. They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. And they never get tired. So robots are very useful in factori
19、es. They can be taught to do many different jobs. First their electronic brain must be shown how the job is done. A person moves the robots “arms and “hands through each part of the job.The most intelligent robots can move and see. Their eyes are cameras. Their fingers can feel shapes and sizes of t
20、he objects. These robots have computer brains linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions. The expensiY: Times New RomanThe most intelligent robots cave robots are used in scientific research. They do such job as handling radioactive materials.56. In this passage the author tells u
21、s that _.A. robots are very popularB. there are various kinds of robotsC. we see robots only at certain timesD. robots can be easily controlled57. What does the author seem to inform you about robots?A. They should be greatly improved.B. They will probably take over in the future.C. They are very he
22、lpful and useful to humans.D. They are machines that break down a lot.68. The fact that a robot never gets bored doing the same job means that _.A. it is very much like human beingsB. it can do boring jobs for peopleC. it will never bore peopleD. it will work much better than human beings59. The rob
23、ots used for scientific research _.erC. are very big B. are very cheapD. are very costlyBThe United States government wants to know what the public thinks about its findings on the safety of cloned animals. The Food and Drug Administration says meat and milk from clones of adult cattle, pigs and goa
24、ts are safe to eat. An F.D.A. official called them as safe to eat as the food we eat every day. And when those clones reproduce sexually有性繁殖, the agency says, their offspring后代 are safe to eat as well. But research on cloned sheep is limited. So the F.D.A. proposes that sheep clones not be used for
25、human food. The United States this year could become the first country to approve the sale of foods from cloned animals. First, however, the public will have ninety days to comment on three proposed documents. On December 28th the F.D.A. released a long report, called a draft risk assessment, along
26、with two policy documents. The agency says it must receive comments by April second. The F.D.A. seemed ready to act several years ago, but an advisory committee called for more research. For now, the government will continue to ask producers to honor a request that they not sell foods from cloned an
27、imals. Clones are still rare. They cost a lot and are difficult to produce. The F.D.A. says most food from cloning is expected to come not from clones themselves, but from their sexually reproduced offspring. It says clones are expected to be used mostly as breeding animals to spread good qualities.
28、 Public opinion studies show most Americans do not like the idea of food from cloned animals. But this research also shows the public knows little about cloning. Cloning differs from genetic engineering. A cell taken from a so-called donor animals is grown into an embryo胚胎in the laboratory. Next, th
29、e embryo is placed into the uterus子宫of a female animal. If the process is successful, the pregnancy reaches full term and a genetic copy of the donor animal is born. 60. From the passage we know that. A. foods from cloned animals are popular in America B. cloned adult animals are safe to eat except
30、sheep. C. cloned animals will be easy to produce D. most foods from cloning is expected to take place of other foods 61.The main purpose of the text is to. A. tell a interesting story B. give some advice on foods C. give a report D. compare different opinions 62. Who believe that foods from cloning
31、are safe to eat? A. Most Americans B. An advisory committee C. Critics D. The F.D.A. 63 Itcan be inferred from the last paragraph that. A. cloning has much in common with genetic B. not every cell taken from a donor animal can grow into a genetic copy C. the donor animal should be a female one D. cl
32、oned animals grow faster than normal onesCThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events a
33、nd the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think an
34、d speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pit
35、ied. The intention of criticizing(批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may b
36、e of service to them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common polit
37、eness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections
38、, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them. Oth
39、erwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels. 64. People who are unhappy _. A. always consider things differently from othersB. usually are affected by the results of certain things C. usually misunderstand what others think o
40、r sayD. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things65. We can conclude from the passage that _.A. we should pity all such unhappy people B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD. unhappy people can not understand happy persons66.
41、 If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should _.A. prevent any communication with them B. show no respect and politeness to themC. persuade them to recognize the bad effectsD. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes67. In this passage, the wri
42、ter mainly _. A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests the unhappy people get rid of the habits of unhappinessD. tells people how to be happy in lifeDThe man sitting opposite Robert was the Financial Controller. Everybody called him “the FC for short. He made all th
43、e decisions about money. Robert needed some more. That was why he had to see him. The two men did not get on very well. In fact, they had always disliked each other. “Your request is out of the question, the FC said. Robert had difficulty in controlling himself, but he managed somehow. He explained
44、that he wanted the money in order to make more programmes. “And why do you want to do that? the FC asked sharply. Again, Robert almost lost his temper. “Because more and more people are listening to my departments programmes. Theres great demand for them, he answered. The FC did not seem to believe
45、him. But Robert had a report on the numbers of listeners to all EBC programmes. The FC became less confident (自信). Robert threw the report down on the table and told him to read it. The FC looked at it in silence. The figures (数字) proved that he had been wrong, but he did not want to admit it. “Well
46、,he finally said, “I may have made a small mistake.Robert noticed the word “may. He got up to leave. But he had the feeling that he would get the money after all.68. In the story the Financial Controller was a person who was in charge ofA. Roberts departments programmes. B. EBC programmes. C. EBC money. D. both B and C.69. “Your request is out of the question.Here “out of the question means A. without any question B.with some question. C. impossible. D. possible.70. Why were more and more people listening to Roberts program
