13.阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式.
I sold a company in 2012.Everyone was extremely proud of me,but no one knew the exact amount I made.In fact,I only made just over a hundred thousand dollars.I(61)hid(hide)the amount on purpose because I was(62)to use(use) all the money to buy my parents a house,and I knew that my parents would never allow me to buy them a house with the money from my sale.So with no one (63)knowing (know),I used up my money and bought my parents a one-storey house.I did this because they had been living in one of the smallest and oldest two-storey houses in the area(64)thatcould no longer suit my sick dad who (65)increasingly(increase) used a wheel chair.
Everyone guessed I had made much money and (66)thatthis was one of many things I bought.In (67)reality(real),this was my dream gift.This gift allowed my dad to live (68)through the rest of his life in dignity.Since then,I (69)have made(make) more money.My dad passed away,and my mom lives in that house now,full of great memory.We look back with great joy on those last few years with my dad,and I'm glad I could make him as (70)comfortable(comfort) as possible.

62.to use  考查动词不定式.此处be to use动词不定式表示将来.

8.Papa,as a son of a dirt-poor farmer,left school early and went to work in a factory,for education was for the rich then.So,the world became his school.With great interest,he read everything he could lay his hands on,listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown."There's so much to learn,"he'd say."Though we're born stupid,only the stupid remain that way."He was determined that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.
  Thus,Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day.Though,as children,we thought this was crazy,it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request.And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned.We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant(微不足道的),it was never taken lightly.Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment,always to the point.
  Then came the moment-the time to share the day's new learning.
  Papa,at the head of the table,would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine,ready to listen.
"Felice,"he'd say,"tell me what you learned today."
"I learned that the population of Nepal is…"
  Silence.
  Papa was thinking about what was said,as if the salvation(拯救)of the world would depend upon it."The population of Nepal.Hmm.Well…"he'd say."Get the map; let's see where Nepal is."And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.
  This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn.Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.
  As ch ildren,we thought very little about these educational wonders.Our family,however,was growing together,sharing experiences and participating in one another's education.And by looking at us,listening to us,respecting our input,affirming(肯定) our value,giving us a sense of dignity(体面),Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.
  Later during my training as a future teacher,I studied with some of the most famous educators.They were imparting (传授) what Papa had known all along-the value of continual learning.His technique has served me well all my life.Not a single day has been wasted,though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.

3.What's more exciting than having a fresh hot pizza delivered to your door  How about having it brought to you by a robot  Thanks to Domino's Robotic Unit or DRU,that just became a reality!On March 8,the three-foot tall robot delivered its first pizza to some lucky residents in Brisbane,Australia.
 The fully autonomous DR U is the result of cooperation between Domino's Pizza Australia and Marathon Robotics.The 450-pound machine that travels at a maximum speed of 12.4 miles an hour can traverse a distance of up to 12 miles and back,before requiring a battery recharge.LIDAR,a laser-based sensor technology similar to the one used in self-driving cars,enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles,while traditional sensors,much like those used in vacuum robots ensure its path is safe as it heads to its destination.
 The robot can fit up to ten pizzas and even has a separate cold area to accommodate drink orders.To access their food,customers have to enter the unique code provided to them by the company.This not only ensures that they pick up the right pizza,but also prevents the pies from getting stolen.
 Scientists expect additional DRU's to be ready for service in their various Queensland locations within the next six months.But don't expect these super cute robots to replace humans anytime soon.According to Domino's the DRU still needs extensive testing,which the company believes could take up to two years.
 And then there is also the issue of regulations.The public use of autonomous vehicles is still banned in most countries.But Don Meij,the CEO and Managing Director of Domino's Pizza Australia New Zealand Ltd,is not worried.He is"confident that one day DRU will become an integral part of the Domino's family."

21.What's the function of LIDARB
A.Recharging DRU's battery.
B.Keeping DRU free of obstacles.
C.Helping DRU find its destination.
D.Protecting DRU from bad weather.
22.What does the underlined word"accommodate"in paragraph 3 probably meanA
A.Hold.
B.Sell.
C.Heat.
D.Show.
23.What can we infer about future of DRUD
A.It will replace humans soon.
B.It will be applied worldwide.
C.It may be banned in Australia.
D.It may need some improvements.
