【题目】Researchers are placing robotic dogs (机器狗) in the homes of lonely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people’s depression, physical activity, and life satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated (刺激),” Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote (使……成为现实) that, especially for those without friends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.”
In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will review the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner.
“I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says a seventy-year-old lady. “When I’m watching TV, he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.”
The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns.
“At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate to the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry, ” Beck says. “But it’s amazing how quickly we have given up that belief.”
“Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper. They will record their masters’ blood pressure, oxygen levels, or heart rhythms. AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate older people’s minds. ”
【1】The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to __________.
A. understand human-animal relationship
B. make lonely old people’s life better
C. find the causes of old people’s loneliness
D. promote the animal-assisted research
【2】In the research, the old people are asked to ____________.
A. note the activities of AIBOs
B. keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks
C. record their feelings and activity.
D. analyze the collected information
【3】What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs?
A. It is easier to keep at home.
B. It can help the disabled people.
C. It responds to all the human orders.
D. It can watch TV with its owner.
【4】The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may _____________.
A. cure certain diseases
B. keep old people active
C. change people’s beliefs
D. look more like real dogs

【题目】There are three separate sources of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power.
First, the radioactive (有放射性的) material must travel from its place of production to the power station. Although the power stations themselves are strongly built, the containers used for the transport of the materials are not. Normally, only two methods of transport are in use, namely road or rail. Unfortunately, both of these may have an effect on the general public, since they are sure to pass near, or even through, heavily populated areas.
Second, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years. It is impossible to make these wastes non-radioactive, and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented. For example, they may be buried under the ground, or dropped into deserted mines, or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do not solve the problem, since an earthquake could easily break the containers.
Third, there may occur (发生) the danger of a leak (泄漏) or an explosion at the power station. As with the other two dangers, this is not very likely, so it does not provide a serious objection (不赞成,反对) to the nuclear program. However, it can happen.
Separately, these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry. Taken together, though, the probability of disaster is extremely high.
【1】【改编】Which of the following is not true?
A. It is likely that a leak or an explosion occurs at a power station.
B. It is not usual for radioactive materials to be conveyed across land.
C. The containers are likely to be broken by an earthquake.
D. Nuclear wastes remain risky in most cases for many years.
【2】The author thinks that the ways to store nuclear wastes are __________.
A. easy B. impossible
C. reasonable D. ineffective
【3】【改编】What do we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The power station is a place that frees from danger.
B. The dangers of nuclear energy could be prevented.
C. The general public are opposed to the nuclear program.
D. By itself, none of the three dangers is very likely to lead to much worry.
【4】What is this passage about?
A. Uses of nuclear power.
B. Dangers from nuclear power.
C. Public anger at nuclear power.
D. Accidents caused by nuclear power.

Recently we held a class meeting to discuss the pressure upon every one of us Senior Three students. At the meeting, all of us were very active in the discussion, expressed our opinions on how to relieve pressure.
Pressures comes from many aspects. It may be from the heavy load of learning and from fierce competitions, and it may also come from our teachers or parents. Pressure has too much to do with the result of our studies. Too much pressure has a bad effect to our studies while a proper amount of it may help push us ahead.
Whatever I’m faced with too much pressure, I chose to do some sports or listen to some
music, which is quite beneficial to me. As for the effective way to let go of pressure, I strong recommend that when we feel much too stressed, we stop whatever we are doing, taking a deep breath, and start thinking of something positive.

Dear Brad,
I’m very glad to hear from you. In your last letter you ask about the post-80s in China. Actually I am the boy who belongs to this group. Comparing with our parents, life for us is getting much hard. The job market is tough and the house is expensively to afford. Now many girls prefer to marry with a man who owns a house and a car. Therefore, I don’t think love built on house and cars is true love, and I doubt how long it will last.
As a matter of fact, though situations are tough today, a lot of we post-80s are making great efforts to live a good life. I believe we will have a nice future.
