In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what 'keeping up with the Joneses' is about, It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.
It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series (系列) of short stories, He called it 'Keeping up with the Joneses' because 'Jones' is a very common name in the United States.'

Children with autism (自闭症) may learn better from robots than from human teachers, according to an experiment at Topeliffe Primary School in Birmingham.
Head teacher Ian Lowe said, "The robots have no feelings, so children with autism find it easier to get in touch with the robots than with their teacher."
He added, "They look like real men, and they are very cute. Children with autism are hard to communicate with adults and with other children, but for some reason they can accept these robots."
The robots are knee-high and move like children. The school is using them to teach phonics (读音法) and play cards or memory and imitation (模仿) games with children aged from five to ten.
"We do different activities with the robots acting as a model for the children's behaviour. For example, memory games, which get the children to imitate the robots' movements, can help them become involved and motivated in learning." Dr. Guldberg said, "It can be very difficult to get children with autism to pay attention. We are amazed to see how involved they can be when they are working with the robots."
She added, "If you can meet the needs of children with autism, you can meet the needs of all children. When people feel safe and are motivated, they learn much better."
（1）Why does Topeliffe Primary School use the two robots?
A . To teach children with autism phonics.
B . To teach children with autism memory games.
C . To help children with autism be involved in learning.
D . To help children with autism imitate the robots' movements.
（2）What does the underlined word "motivated" mean in the passage?
A . encouraged
B . experienced
C . organized
D . shocked
（3）According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A . People learn much better if they feel safe and are motivated.
B . Topeliffe Primary School is using the robots to teach children of all ages.
C . Children with autism may become better from human teachers than robots.
D . The needs of children with autism are the same as those of the other children.
