【解析】
1.】later 考查副词的用法。我离开得较早因为那天晚些时候我有个约会,later用作副词是表示“后来，稍后，随后”。
2.】till/until 考查状语从句的连接词。我的朋友一直陪我直到公共汽车来。
3.】sitting/sit 考查动词的用法。notice sb doing/do sth.意为“注意到某人正在做某事/做了某事”，表示状态。
4.】was pretending 考查动词的时态。由“giving it a voice”和 “tiger toy was real”可知用过去进行时。
5.】mentally 考查副词的用法。此处disabled是形容词，用副词修饰，“mentally disabled”表示“精神失常”。
6.】whom 考查定语从句的关系词。此处he was trying to talk to 是定语从句，people是先行词，whom作介词to的宾语。
7.】they 考查代词的用法。他们走开然后坐在我的旁边。这里的they代指前半句中的other people,故用they。
8.】on 考查词组的用法。此处考查词组on one’s own (＝alone)，此处表示让某人独处。
9.】an 考查冠词的用法。amazing是以元音音素开头，故用an。
10.】both 考查代词的用法。由上文 We had … amazing conversation可知“我们俩”都很高兴，故用“both”表示“两者都”。

A Robot Fish has been developed by National University of Singapore’s researchers from the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering．This robot fish has movements which have been inspired by the movements of the carp（鲤鱼）．
There are various purposes that it can be used for．It can help in underwater archaeology （ 考古学 ）．For example, it can enter a sunken city where human divers cannot enter．Just like a fish , it can also look at all the comers of particular wreckage．This robot can also be used for general purposes such as detection of leakages in a pipeline or for laying down communication cables across oceans．It also has possible military uses．
In order to copy carp movements, Mr．Fan studied the movements of the fish for around 3 months．He studied all the different movements of carp using different cameras and then converted these movements mathematically to transfer this data to the robot using many actuators（驱动器）．
Professor Xu commented on the robot that the current models that copy fish movements are capable only of 2D movements which limits their capability as they are not able to dive into water．He said that his model is the first model with 3D movements which allows it to dive as well as float with the help of its fins, just as a normal fish would do．Hence, this fish model robot has much greater movement capability．It would be much harder for enemies to detect as compared to traditional ones when used for military purposes．
The researches want to make their robot fish even smaller, more realistic while adding more sensors such as GPS and video camera to it．This will improve its autonomous 3D movement．They are also planning to test the fish by giving it more difficult tasks such as detecting various objects．
1.The author gave an example in paragraph 2 _____．
A．to introduce the Robot Fish can help in underwater archaeology
B．to show the Robot Fish can be used for general purposes
C．to show the Robot Fish can lay down communication cables across oceans
D．to tell us the Robot Fish has possible military uses
2.Which is NOT true about the 3D Robot Fish?
A．It is capable of diving into water．
B．It cannot dive into water．
C．It can float using its fins．
D．It is difficult to detect．
3.What' s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A．The researchers will give the robot more difficult tasks．
B．The researches want to make their robot smaller．
C．The researchers are going to test the robot．
D．The researches plan to improve the robot．
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement used widely
B．First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement treading the ocean
C．First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement created in Singapore

Medical scientists are already putting computer chips（芯片）directly into the brain to help people who have Parkinson’s disease, but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is the author of the successful book The Age Of Intelligent Machines. He is also one of the world’s best computer research scientists. He is researching the possibilities.
Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona, the virtual hostess of Kurzweil’s website, created by the computer, who is able to understand what you say. Visitors to the website can have their own conversations with her. Ramona also dances and sings.
Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical problems. One of his ideas is a “seeing machine”. This will be “like a friend that could describe what is going on around,” he explains. Blind people will use a sensor（传感器）which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This machine will describe to the person everything it sees.
Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the “listening machine”. This invention will recognize millions of words and understand any speaker. The listening machine will also be able to translate what it hears into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.
But it is not just about helping people with physical problems. Looking further into future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to store what we hear, see and think in a computer. This technology probably won’t be ready for at least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.
1.Ray Kurzweil is .
A. a famous medical scientist
B. a computer research scientist
C. a patient with Parkinson’s
D. an inventor of computer chips
2. What can Ramona do?
A. She can talk with her visitors.
B. She can treat brain diseases.
C. She can help deaf people listen.
D. She can teach people to sing.
3. How can the “seeing machine” help blind people?
A. It can help to treat their eyes.
B. It can translate into other languages.
C. It can help them to see the future.
D. It can describe to them what it sees.
4. The word “virtual” in Paragraph 2 probably means .
A. 虚拟的 B. 友好的 C. 漂亮的 D. 忙碌的
5.What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Seeing Machines
B. The Listening Machines
C. The Intelligent Machines
D. The Translating Machines
