What if you arrived home to find a delicious hot meal waiting for you，prepared by your very own kitchen robot? It might sound like science fiction，but professors at the university of Tokyo have taken the first steps toward making that scenario a reality．The team recently introduced a humanoid kitchen robot that can pour tea and other drinks into cups and serve them to guests．When teatime is over，the robot can also wash the dishes and put them away．
In California，another interesting kitchen robot has been developed．Called the Readybot，it can pick up objects and either store them in cabinets or put them in the trash．It also carries a separate floor-cleaning robot that can operate by itself．Unlike the Japanese robot，Readybot is not humanoid．Instead，it looks more like a large box with arms and wheels．
Readybot was created by engineers and designers who established a club called the Readybot Challenge．They believe that in the future millions of robots will be needed in homes to perform ordinary household tasks．Readybot is just the first step in their plan to create a robot that can tackle jobs not only in kitchens but in other rooms of homes and in offices as well．
Clearly there are technological hurdles to overcome before robots can cook a complete dinner，and there are also many safety concerns．Not everyone（especially parents）would be comfortable with the idea of robots in their house，manipulating hot pans and sharp knives．The European Commission recently funded a project to study these concerns．
56．What does the writer imply about the Japanese robot?
A．It performs fewer functions than readybot can．
B．it looks more like a person than Readybot does．
C．It speaks more languages than Readybot does．
D．It costs 1ess to manufacture than Readybot does．
57．Where do the engineers and designers hope that Readybot will operate in the future?
A．On spacecraft B．In automobiles
C．On playgrounds D．At companies
58．What does the writer imply about parents?
A．They have shown tremendous interest in kitchen robots．
B．They don’t have strong opinions about kitchen robots．
C．They might think that kitchen robots could be dangerous．
D．They can’t wait to buy kitchen robots for their homes．
59．According to the writer，what has the European Commission done for the project?
A．It has built factories B．It has printed manuals
C．It has hired workers D．It has provided money

When we talk about intelligence，we do not mean the ability to get a good score on a certain kind of test，or even the ability to do well in school. These are at best only indicators of something larger，deeper，and far more important. By intelligence we mean a style of life，a way of behaving in various situations. The true test of intelligence is not how much we know to do，but how we behave when we don’t know what to do.
The intelligent person，young or old，meeting a new situation or problem，opens himself up to it. He tries to take in with mind and senses everything he can about it. He thinks about it，instead of about himself or what it might cause to happen to him. He grapples（努力克服）with it boldly，imaginatively，resourcefully（善于应变地），and if not confidently，at least hopefully；if he fails to master it，he looks without fear or shame at his mistakes and learns what he can from them. This is intelligence. Clearly its roots lie in a certain feeling about life，and one’s self with respect to life. Just as clearly，unintelligence is not what most psychologists seem to suppose，the same thing as intelligence，only less of it. It is an entirely different set of attitudes.
Years of watching and comparing bright children with the not-bright，or less bright，have shown that they are very different kinds of people. The bright child is curious about life and reality，eager to get in touch with it，embrace（捉住机会）it，unite himself with it. There is no wall，no barrier，between himself and life. On the other hand，the dull child is far less curious，far less interested in what goes on and what is real，more inclined（倾向于）to live in a world of fantasy. The bright child likes to experiment，to try things out. He lives by the maxim（格言）that there is more than one way to skin a cat. If he can’t do something one way，he’ll try another. The dull child is usually afraid to try at a11. It takes a great deal of urging to get him to try even once；if that try fails，he is through.
Nobody starts off stupid. Hardly an adult in a thousand，or ten thousand，could in any three years of his life learn as much. Grow as much in his understanding of the world around him，as every infant（婴儿）learns and grows in his first three years. But what happens，as we grow older，to this extraordinary capacity for learning and intellectual growth？What happens is that it is destroyed，and more than by any other one thing，it is destroyed by the process that we misname education―a process that goes on in most homes and schools.
56. Which of the following is TRUE about an unintelligent child？
A. He／She rarely daydreams.
B. He／She takes the initiative（主动权）.
C. He／She gives up easily.
D. He／She isn’t afraid of failing.
57. The writer believes that “unintelligence” is .
A. similar to intelligence
B. 1ess than intelligence
C. the common believes of most psychologists
D. a particular way of looking at the world
58. Why does the writer say that education is misnamed？
A. Because it takes place more in homes than in schools.
B. Because it discourages intellectual growth.
C. Because it helps dull children with their problems.
D. Because it helps children understand the world around them.
59. “There is more than one way to skin a cat”. Which of the following maxim has a similar meaning to this one？
A. If at first you don’t succeed，try，try，and try again.
B. All work and no play make Johnny a dull boy.
C. Make new friends and keep the old；one is silver and the other is gold.
D. Make hay while the sun shines.
60. “It is an entirely different set of attitudes. ”“It” in this sentence refers to .
A. intelligence B. behavior
C. 1ife D unintelligence
