【题目】With technology entering almost every aspect of our lives, the demand for computer programmers can only increase. To train the workforce of the future, companies around the world are wildly developing computing languages to introduce children to the appealing world of programming both in and out of school.
The only drawback is that to learn or observe the results of their programming efforts, children have to be able to see. As a result, kids with limited or no vision (视觉) are prevented from participating in this exciting trend. To change that, researchers at Microsoft’s Cambridge, UK Lab have developed a new physical programming language that can be learned by all children.
Project Torino allows visually damaged kids aged 7 to 11 to create code (编码) that plays music, stories, or poetry by connecting physical pods (检测装置) together. Once done, an accompanying app changes the physical code into digital code. The smart system covers all the major concepts and is ready to adapt to the needs of each student and set challenges based on the individual’s skill. Most importantly, it provides instant feedback, enabling educators to assess students’ progress and provide assistance as needed.
The Microsoft team is currently developing the system further. Among the changes is adding color to the previously all-white pods because it helps children with limited vision to learn better. The size of the pods is also being increased since kids working in pairs were more engaged when they could both physically hold the pods and touch hands.
The program will be expanded to 100 elementary school children in the UK this fall, and, once perfected, to kids across the world. While the system was created with visually damaged children in mind, Cecily Morrison, one of the researchers working on the project, hopes that it will appeal to everyone.
【1】Why do companies introduce children to the programming world?
A. To satisfy children’s curiosity.
B. To develop children’s potential.
C. To foster the future programmers.
D. To make children more competitive.
【2】What does the underlined word “that” probably refer to?
A. The exciting trend.
B. The drawback.
C. Limited and poor sight.
D. A physical language.
【3】What is the advantage of the new smart system?
A. It can help judge children’s progress.
B. It bases the challenges on kids’ vision.
C. Children with poor sight can see the code.
D. It gives children guidance and instructions.
【4】What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?
A. The size of the pods.
B. The color of the pods.
C. The Microsoft team’s hard work.
D. The improvement to the new system.

【题目】Decades before the first unaccompanied child was put on a plane to grandma’s in the care of a flight attendant, a few resourceful parents accomplished the same end by simply dropping their kids in the mail.
This was in the earliest days of the parcel post service, which launched in 1913. Before that, U.S. Postal Service packages were capped at four pounds, which limited the goofy things people tried to send by post.
But when the parcel service began, all kinds of cargo showed up in the mail stream, including coffins, eggs, dogs and, in a few cases, human young.
According to National Postal Museum historian Nancy Pope, the first known case of a mailed baby was in 1913 when Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Beauge of Glen Este, Ohio, shipped their 10-pound infant son to his grandmother’s home about a mile away, paying 15 cents in postage and springing for $50 in insurance (because they were worriers).
But some children were mailed much farther, Pope said. Edna Neff of Pensacola, Fla., was 6 when she was packed off — or packaged off — to her father’s home in Christiansburg, Va., 720 miles away.
The precious parcels weren’t truly parcels in the brown-paper. Instead they were more like companions in the arms of their carriers or walked along the route(路线). But the most famous mailed child, May Pierstorff, was indeed sent by an Idaho railway mail car in 1914 with the appropriate stamps stuck to her traveling coat. May’s picture survives, but no physical evidence of her trip. “We would sure love to have that coat,” Pope said.
In 1914, the postmaster general instituted a rule about the mail that stands to this day: no humans. But that didn’t stop an ambitious thief from crating himself up and shipping himself airmail. When William DeLucia, packed in a trunk labeled “Musical Instruments” along with food and an oxygen tank, was airborne, he climbed out, pilfered thousands of dollars’ worth of goods from the registered mail and sealed himself back up. He was arrested at the Atlanta airport in 1980 after his trunk popped open as it was being unloaded.
“We have his oxygen tank” at the Postal Museum, Pope noted with pride.
【1】What did U.S Postal Service put a limit to before 1913?
A. The value of the mail.
B. The weight of parcels.
C. The content in the mail.
D. The postage for packages.
【2】How was Jesse Beauge’s son mailed?
A. Packed in a mailbox.
B. Walked along the route.
C. Sent by a railway mail car.
D. Carried in the arms of the postman.
【3】What does Nancy Pope wish to be exhibited most in the Postal Museum?
A. May’s picture.
B. The brown-paper.
C. May’s traveling coat.
D. Idaho railway mail car.
【4】Who discovered William DeLucia at last?
A. The airport porter.
B. The airport police.
C. The passenger victims.
D. The postmaster general.
