Picking up objects plays an important role in people’s life. El-E is a robot that is designed to get everyday objects for people with disabilities.
About 1.5 meters tall, with a single robotic arm that can pick up objects at different heights, El-E is equipped to discover what its owner wants and then go and fetch it. The user can point a location to the robot using a “point-and-click” way of interaction, which provides a direct way to tell the robot which object to handle or where to go. The robot can adapt the position of its arm in order to grasp the object.
After successful early trials, some scientists expanded El-E’s functions and tried to combine voice commands with the laser (激光) in order to do more complicated tasks, like opening doors. The robot recognizes words such as “pull” or “push” and performs the action on an object illuminated by the laser. In order to add more functions, project director Prof. Charlie and his colleagues are focusing on programming El-E to locate and fetch common household items such as a hairbrush, a bottle of pills or a cell phone.
The robot is also designed to learn from its mistakes. “If it fails to fetch an object, it will recognize it and try again,” Charlie said. Formal studies have shown El-E to be a good worker. In 127 out of 134 trials, the robot successfully picked up the requested object.
1.What is the purpose of the text?
A. To describe different types of El-E.
B. To predict the development of El-E.
C. To introduce the functions of El-E.
D. To stress the importance of El-E.
2.The underlined part “point-and-click” in Paragraph 2 refers to .
A. a method through which people give commands
B. a machine that can be used to replace the robot
C. a signal used to show the robot where the object is
D. a button that controls the actions of the robot
3.How do Charlie and his colleagues develop El-E?
A. By having it communicate with more people.
B. By making it able to fetch more items.
C. By letting it pick up objects more accurately.
D. By getting it changeable at different occasions.
4.From the text, we can learn that_______.
A. robots are getting more and more popular
B. robots are quicker than human beings
C. more and more people begin to develop robots for the disabled
D. correcting mistakes can help the robot work more successfully

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项
I arrived home late one night last week. I spent a moment looking up into the night sky. The stars above shone(照耀) brightly. The sky looked really beautiful.
I started to think about other things as I stared at the night sky. It hit me clearly that these beautiful stars were always there but I had spent very little time in the past really appreciating them. It also reminded me that we often think we deserve many things around us, being too caught up in our own little world. It is a world filled with busy work and the demands placed on us from what we have allowed to take up our time.
Recently, I was asked to repair a house for a family member. When I arrived, it seemed like any other day when I spent my time doing something I knew how to do. But there was something else that came to mind as I started to work with my son-in-law. I considered it a good opportunity. The opportunity was more than just spending time repairing a house. It was an opportunity to further a bond between two people who are related by marriage but are unrelated through few experiences. It was an opportunity to build a stronger bond, a bond that can only happen when two people are exposed(暴露) to each other’s skills and faults. It was also an opportunity to share my knowledge and experience with another who wanted to learn.
There are many chances to see beyond what is viewed as normal, but we must be able to actually open our eyes and heart to these events and appreciate them. To be in tune with what is around you, you must use the attitude of a child who screams with joy the first time they see a rainbow, hear the pretty song of a bird, or enjoy the beauty of Christmas decorations.
1.While looking at the night sky, the author realized that __________.
A. the sky wasn’t always beautiful
B. he had wasted his life for many years
C. he didn’t know what he really wanted
D. he didn’t appreciate things around him
2. What does the underlined word “bond” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Relationship. B. Friendship.
C. Trust. D. Respect.
3.While repairing the house, the author considered it a good opportunity to _________.
A. learn some important skills
B. show others his skills and faults
C. become closer with his son-in-law
D. earn some money for his family
4. Why does the author talk about what a child does in the last paragraph?
A. Because children know what they really want.
B. Because children can help us think of our childhood.
C. Because children can enjoy the simple beauty of things.
D. Because children actually value family more than adults do.

Phrases like “tiger mom” and ‘‘helicopter parent” have made their way into everyday language. Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort, we might turn out children with bright futures. But is there anything wrong with a kind of “overparenting style”?
Parental involvement has a long history of being studied. Many of the studies, conducted by Diana Baumrind, a famous psychologist at the University of California, Berkeley, have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way, who sets high expectations but gives her child independence. These “authoritative parents” appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically, psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved, or controlling and more involved. Why is this parenting style so successful?
Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children. Carol Dweck, a social psychologist at Stanford University, has done research that indicates why authoritative parents raise more motivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle. Most do so with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells some, but not all, of the kids how clever they are. As it turns out, the children who are not told they’re smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles. They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving.
As the experiment suggests, praising children’s talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence. Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing one’s status as “smart”. Dr. Dweck’s work strongly supports that of Dr. Baumrind, who also found that reasonably supporting a child’s independence and limiting interference (干涉) causes better academic and emotional results.
The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident. If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she can’t walk, you reduce her confidence. Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting. It is easier when they are young. The potential mistakes carry greater risks, and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children.
1.According to the passage, a “tiger mom” ______.
A. helps her children realize their dreams
B. speaks her children’s everyday language
C. places reasonable expectations on her children
D. pays close attention to her children’s experiences
2.It is implied that controlling style of parenting may _____.
A. cause more problems in children
B. foster independence in children
C. face more challenges of children
D. lead to children’s academic success
3.The example of the children doing the puzzles suggests that ______.
A. a good game plays a big role in training young minds
B. overpraising makes children less motivated and confident
C. puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they need
D. bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games
4.The last paragraph tells us that ______.
A. children should not be given much freedom
B. parents should not increase the risk of challenging
C. parents should allow their children to learn from mistakes
D. children should correct mistakes with the help of their parents

Traveling without a map in different countries，I find out about different“styles”of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don’t have name signs：in Japan，people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names．For example，the Japanese will say to travelers，“Go straight down to the corner．Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market．The post office is across from the bus stop．”
People in Los Angeles，the US，have no idea of distance on the map：they measure distance by time，not miles．“How far away is the post office?”you ask．“Oh,” they answer，“it’s about five minutes from here．” You don’t understand completely，“Yes，but how many miles away is it，please?”To this question you won’t get an answer，because most probably they don’t know it themselves．
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language．Instead，a Greek will often say,“ Follow me．”Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office．
Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question．What happens in the situation? A New Yorker might say，“Sorry, I have no idea．”But in Yucatan，Mexico，no one answers “I don’t know．” People there believe that “I don’t” is impolite．They usually give an answer，but often a wrong one．So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan!
However，one thing will help you everywhere in the world．It’s body language．
1.Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?
A．“Go south two miles．Turn west and then go another mile．”
B．“Turn right at the hospital and go past a school．”
C．“The post office is about five minutes from here．”
D．“The post office is at Street Kamira．”
2.Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles?
A．They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance．
B．They prefer to lead you the way．
C．They often have no idea of distance measured by miles．
D．They prefer to use body language．
3.How do Greeks give directions?
A．Using street names．
B．Using landmarks．
C．Leading people the way．
D．Giving people a wrong direction．
4.Where is Yucatan?
A．In the USA． B．In Japan．
C．In Greece． D．In Mexico．
