    　　What comes into your mind when you think about robots? Do you imagine armies of evil metal monsters planning to take over the world? Or, perhaps of mechanical men who have been created as guards or soldiers by a mad genius? Or maybe you think of man- like robots who act, think, and look like human beings. In fact robots like these have more to do with science fiction films than with real life. In the real world robots are machines that do jobs which otherwise have to be done by people. Robots either operate by themselves or under the control of a person.
    　　In a car factory, for example, robot machinery can put together and paint car bodies. On the sea bed remotecontrolled（遥控）underwater machines with mechanical arms can perform tasks too difficult for divers. Robot spacecraft can explore the solar system and send back information about planets and stars.
    　　Many robots have computer brains. Some robots are fitted with cameras , sensors, and microphones which enable them to see, to feel, and to hear. And some robots can even produce electronic speech.
    　　All this does not mean that a robot can think and behave like a human being. Present day robots have to be programmed with a good deal of information before they can carry out even simple tasks.
    　44．Robots in real life________.
    　　A. can behave like human beings   B. have the ability to control the world
    　　C. can think by themselves        D. can help us with a lot of work
    　45．According to this article, which of the following is not true about robots in the real world?
    　　A. Some robots are as creative as artists.     B. Some robots can help manufacture cars.
    　　C. Some robots can see and hear.       D. Some robots can explore outer space.
    　46．Robots can perform many tasks for man because________.
    　　A. they have intelligence    B. they are supplied with computer programs
    　　C. they can imitate human beings    D. they have the ability to learn new things
    　47．The robots in science fiction films and those in real life differ mainly in________.
    　　A. mentality　　 B. appearance　　 C. material　　　 D. size

        By far the most common difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work. This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study. Many students muddle along, doing a bit of this subject or that, as the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment.
    Few students work to a set timetable. They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it, or would have to change it frequently, since they can never predict (foresee) from one day to the next what their activities will be.
    No doubt some students take much more kindly to a regular routine than others. There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable, and dislike being tied down to a fixed programme of work . Many able students state that they work in cycles. When they become interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time. On other days they avoid work completely. It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation to work. Most people over 25 years of age have become used to a work routine, and the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work. The “tough-minded” school of workers doesn’t fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally, under the influence of inspiration.
    Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom”. Freedom from control and discipline  leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development”. Our society insists on regular habits, timekeeping and punctuality (准时), and whether we like it or not, if we mean to make our way in society, we have to meet its demands.
    63．The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is ________.
    A. changing from one subject to another
    B. the failure to keep to a set timetable of work
    C. the unwillingness to follow a systematic plan
    D. working on a subject only when one feels like it
    64．Which of the following is true ?
    A. Many students are not interested in using a self-controlled timetable.
    B. Many students don’t like being told to study to a fixed timetable.
    C. Most people over 25 years of age don’t work to a set timetable.
    D. Tough-minded people agree that good work is done naturally.
    65．The underlined part “as the fit takes them” in paragraph 4 means ________.
    A. when they have the energy                                               B. when they are in the mood
    C. when they feel fit                                                        D. when they find conditions suitable
    66．A suitable title for the passage might be ________.
    A. Attitudes to Study                                                      B. A study Plan
    C. The Difficulties of Studying                             D. Study and Self-discipline

    You often hear people refer to Africa as a country, not a continent. It is often a region that is described as being unified around poverty, disease and despair. Africa is far from being a homogenized continent. It has more than 50 countries, each with unique culture, landscape and tradition.
    Africa’s diversity is apparent to anyone who travels to the continent. In the north, you have countries like Morocco, Algeria and Egypt, which have a long tradition of welcoming visitors. Further south there is Kenya and Tanzania, both renowned for their wildlife and for Africa’s tallest peak, Mt. Kilimanjaro. On the southern tip of the continent is South Africa, the region’s economic and political superpower which in itself lies many fascinating cultures. There are also the trouble spots like Congo and Sudan which are almost all but avoided by travelers.
    Travel in Africa can be rough. It can also be a great joy. If you have patience, a willingness to maintain an open mind, a desire to explore and the ability to laugh at the strange, your African travels will change your life.
    There are many entry points to Africa. Your best bet in terms of cheap airfare is to fly into one of the bigger cities like Johannesburg or Nairobi. Depending on where you are starting from flights to Africa can be either quite cheap or outrageously expensive. As is true nearly everywhere, flying into the biggest cities is usually your best bet for a cheap ticket.
    Many people who travel to Africa prefer to do so in a group or through an organized adventure trip. This is especially the case with safari trips. BootsnAll has some of the best African adventure trips and safaris in the world. We work closely with local tour providers to offer you many options at very affordable rates.

    Go ahead，talk to your dog.
    As many a dog owner will prove, our furry friends are listening. Now, for the doubters, there is scientific proof that they understand much of what they hear. A border collie called Rico can fetch at least 200 objects by name， researchers in Germany say. The dog also appears to learn words for new objects as easily as a 3-year-old child would. Its word-learning skill is as good as that of a parrot or chimpanzee.
    In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them randomly into 20 sets of 10 objects each. The dog waited with one of his owners in one room, while an experimenter put a set of 10 objects into another room. Then, the owner told the dog to fetch one of the items. The dog had to go to the other room and bring the object back.
    In four trials, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. Because the dog couldn't see anyone to get visual clues about what to bring back, the scientists concluded that he must understand the meanings of certain words.
    In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names he already knew. The dog's owner then told him to fetch the object, using a word Rico had never heard.
    In 7 out of 10 trials, Rico picked the right object, suggesting that he figured out the answer by process of elimination. A month later, he remembered half of the new names, which further impressed the researchers.
    Rico is probably smarter than the average dog, the scientists say. For one thing, he's a border collie, a breed known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to retrieve toys by their names since he was 9 months old.
    It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your pup every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!
    48．The passage is probably taken from a book on _____
    A．pets B．environment    C．culture     D．nutrition
    49．It is implied that ____
    A．Rico is probably cleverer than the average dog
    B．Only a few dogs can talk back to its owner
    C．if a chimpanzee is trained ,it can also recognize the names of objects
    D．All dogs can understand words
    50．How long is it since Rico’s owner began to train him?
    A．nine months  B．3years    C．over nine years      D．more than eight years
    51．Rico can do all the following except _____
    A．understanding the meanings of certain words.
    B．picking the right object by process of elimination
    C．remembering all of the new names he learned    D．retrieving toys by their names

    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。
    When you look at a map of the Caribbean, you will see a bunch of little islands surrounded by. Blue waters, which include places that aren't always household names like Montserrat and Anguilla.
    While some of the names may not be familiar, the fact is that the Caribbean is a popular vacation region. Those little clots on the map often turn out to be island paradises. There are more than 7,000 islands, islets, and reefs in the area, many of which are lightly populated and stunningly beautiful.
    The biggest challenge you might face in planning your trip is choosing where in the Caribbean to go. All of the nations feature excellent weather. Most feature beautiful beaches. You can enjoy the waters in most of the Caribbean nations and as is often the case with island nations, you will be welcomed warmly by the locals. Here are some resources to help you.
    Unless you can walk on water or you cruise the Caribbean, the best way to visit is to fly. Some destinations have more frequent and cheaper flights than others. You should do some comparison shopping on flights to the Caribbean. And if you are planning on flying there during the Christmas holiday weeks it's important to book as early as possible because prices will just keep going up as they get closer.
    The Caribbean offers a wide variety of accommodation options. Check out the Caribbean hotels that are available to get a better idea of the various options. If you are on a tight budget then, the Caribbean could be challenging, as there are only a few cheap hotels and hostels that might help you save some money.
    Many people see the Caribbean from a cruise ship. There is no shortage of cruises that will take you through the region. Cruise and Vacation Travel Packages is the place to go to find the cruise or vacation package that is right for you.
    56. The Caribbean is popular with tourists because ________.
    A. the area has a small population             B. the area has a long history.
    C. there are many beautiful islands there        D. tire area is very developed
    57. The underlined word "they" in the fourth paragraph refers to _________.
    A. prices of air tickets                       B. tourists to the Caribbean
    C. flights to the Caribbean                  D. the Christmas holiday weeks
    58. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
    A. The weather in all of the Caribbean nations is fine.
    B. Most of the Caribbean hotels are cheap.
    C. The local people of the Caribbean are very friendly.

    .
    This is my third day of the English camp here in Australia. It has been an amazing experience. I can’t believe how many different nationalities are here. Because we all speak so many different languages, we are forced to use our English in order to communicate. I really like Jim, the leader of my small group. There are only five other students in our group; Jim is very easy-going and is very good at getting all of us to chat and have fun together.
    There are classes every day, but they are not boring, like my English classes at school. We learn new vocabulary every day and then must practice it immediately in conversation or in real life situations. The teachers are very professional---and very skilled at making us feel comfortable and eager to talk. The writing classes are the most difficult for me; the teacher is very strict, but I like her a lot. She has very high standards, but her step-by-step method leads us slowly but surely to her final goal.
    I can feel myself growing a lot personally. In just three days, I have much more confidence than ever before to express myself in English. I’ve also noticed that I’m much more comfortable with different kinds of people---not nearly so shy as when I’m at home. It seems that being shy is just my way of hiding when I’m afraid. Here at the camp, the teachers and other leaders have kindly but firmly forced me to push past my fear. I’m learning a lot about myself. In fact, after staying here for only three days, I have realized that in the past I used my shyness as an excuse for my poor English. I’ve realized that I’m not really being shy, but I’m being afraid of embarrassment--- and my fear has hurt not only my English ability but my social skills. Here at the camp I’m not only learning English but also learning how not to be afraid.
    68. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. The English Camp only offers a three-day study.
    B. The writer is the leader of his small group.
    C. There are altogether five members in the writer’s group.
    D. The members in the English camp are from different countries.
    69. What does the writer think of his English classes at school?
    A. They are not boring.
    B. They are dull.
    C. They are interesting.
    D. He likes them better than the classes in the English camp.
    70. What can we learn about the writer from the passage?
    A. His English used to be poor because of his shyness.
    B. His English used to be poor because of his fear.
    C. He doesn’t like English.
    D. He is not as comfortable with different kinds of people as at home.
    71. By saying “my fear has hurt not only my English ability but my social skills”, the writer means all of the following except ________.
    A. he has learnt both English and social skills in the English camp
    B. he has much more confidence than ever before to express himself in English now
    C. he has grown a lot personally at the English Camp
    D. he is not learning much about himself at the English Camp
