Many companies use guards and expensive alarm systems to protect their property(财产)。 Soon a new kind of protection will be used- robots. Engineers have been working on the first mobile robots for businesses. The robots will patrol(巡逻) factories, warehoues(仓库),and museums at night.
The mobile robots will move around slowly on wheels. They will be able to detect people through walls and pick up sounds, such as breaking glass. They can be fixed with lound sirens(警笛) to frighten thieves, or radios to signal police or guards.
To protect a building, a robot will have to move around without knocking into the walls. Information about the building will have to be stored in the robot’s small, built-in computer. A floor map could be programmed into the computer’s memory, for example.
A mobile robot will not be able to do everything. Unlike human guards, it will not be able to climb stairs, open doors, or move along rough ground. It won’t be able to tell the difference between friends and enemies. Because of that, people will have to be barred from the area it patrols.
One kind of mobile robot will be able to “sense” whether a chair or box has been moved and go around it. This robot will also judge size well enough so that it won’t send an alam if a cat crosses the room. And if someone tries to steal this robot, it will sound a loud, painful siren. The three-foot-tall robot will be hard to steal anyway. It will weigh about 200 pounds.
U.S companies pay almost $10 billion a year to protect their property with alarm systems and human guards. Mobile robots may be cheaper.
小题1:Why is the new kind of robots called mobile robots?
A.Because they are able to climb stairs.B.Because they are able to send an alarm
C.Because they can open doors.D.Because they can move around slowly on wheels
小题2: How will a robot get directions for moving around a building?
A.From a human guard .B.From a built- in computer.
C.From another robot .D.From radio signals.
小题3: What does the underlined word barred mean?
A.protectedB.allowed .C.markedD.prevented
小题4: According to the text, a mobile robot will NOT be able to ___________.
A.sense whether something has been moved.B.sense a cat crossing the room.
C.move over rough ground .D.detect people through walls.
小题5:This text mainly describes how robots will ___________.
A.protect the museumB.set off a siren .
C.judge the size of a person.D.patrol buildings.

Have you been asked for money by some disabled beggars while you’re enjoying shopping? Do you have any pity on them who are so poor and lonely or do you just feel afraid of their terrible shapes? As one of the most special groups, disabled people’s living conditions — not only their material (物质的) conditions, but their mental (精神的) world — really need improvement.
The treatment for disabled people should go like this: First, don’t look down upon them. Don’t be afraid of looking at the terrible shapes of the disabled. Try to treat them equally.

If you can be a volunteer and do some work for the disabled people, that would be very nice. That does help not only to the disabled people but also to yourself because you will feel good after your kind action.

Being able to multitask-- doing several things at the same time--is considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.
What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic products as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.
Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.
Multitasking also has an effect on young people's performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive (肯定的) answer. However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.
小题1:What does the underlined word "juggle" most probably mean?
A.Want to buy.
B.Use at the same time.
C.Take the place of.
D.Search information from.
小题2:In Paragraph 3, the author points out that ________.
A.family members do not greet each other
B.family members do not eat at the family table
C.young people get on well with their families
D.young people hardly communicate with their family members
小题3:What's the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.Young people must learn skills for future jobs.
B.Young people benefit (获益) a lot from modern gadgets.
C.Multitasking is an important skill to young people.
D.Multitasking influences young people's development seriously.
小题4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.
B.Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again.
C.Educators feel that young people don't need to improve their study skills.
D.People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children's later study skills.
小题5:The author develops (阐述) the passage mainly by ________.
A.providing special examples
B.following the natural time order
C.giving out a cause and analyzing (分析) its effects
D.comparing opinions from different worlds

Good morning, class!
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet is popular and it makes our lives colorful. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer and get more information from the Internet. We can learn English. We can read some good newspapers and magazines. It can make us clever in playing computer games. We can send E-mails to our friends quickly. We can chat(聊天) freely online with our friends. It can help us get in touch with people from all over the world.
But some students spend too much time in playing computer game and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Teenagers even get to have boyfriends or girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse and worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. We should get online with adults(成人)--our teacher or parents.
At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some out-of-class activities at school. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon. We have different kinds of activities. If you are interested in sports, you can play basketball or football. We can go to the English Corner. We can practice talking in English there. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.
