Across the street was a gas station, which was closed for Christmas, but I noticed a family standing under the narrow overhang to keep dry. I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I couldn’t wait to see my gifts.Once I got home, there was hardly any time to enjoy my gifts. My grandparents were still waiting for us to have Christmas dinner together at their house. As we drove down the highway, I noticed that the family was still there.The closer we got to my grandparents’ house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned and said, “I can’t stand it!” “What?” asked my mother. “It’s those people back there at the gas station, standing in the rain.”When my father pulled into the station, I saw there were five of them: the parents and three children—two girls and a small boy. Then we learned that the family was waiting for the bus to Birmingham, where the man planned to find a job.“Well, that bus won’t come along for several hours. Winborn’s just a few milesaway, and there is a shed (棚) with a cover there,” my father advised. “I will run you up there.”Then they climbed into our car,. My father looked back and asked the children if Father Christmas had found them. Three sad faces gave him his answer.“Well, Father Christmas said he was having trouble finding you, so he just left your toys at my house this morning. Let’s go to get them first,” my father said. All at once, the three children’s faces lit up.When we arrived at our house, one girl spied a lovely doll, that little boy took a ball, and the other girl picked up something else. That was the Christmas when I learned the joy of making others happy.5. At the gas station the family might feel______.A. frightenedB. disappointedC. anxiousD. delighted6. The three children received Christmas gifts thanks to_______.A. the authorB. the author’s fatherC. their parentsD. their grandparents7. We can learn from the text that the author’s father_____.A. knew that family very wellB. got lost on the way to WinbornC. was happy to help those in troubleD. sent that family to Birmingham8. What would be the best title for the text?A. Father Christmas saved usB. My father never gives upC. A hard-working familyD. Special Christmas giftsCShe was returning from teaching out in a small community (社区). It was a moonless night, and a heavy snow was falling.She remembered back to when she had first started teaching out in small communities. In those days she had always picked up hitchhikers (搭便车者), until the day her sister told her of a friend who had been killed by a hitchhiker, all because she had stopped out of kindness to help him during a storm. Her family worried about her safety over the hitchhikers until the family heard her promise: “No more hitchhikers!”Then, one night, she saw a man waving. She slowed down for him, but now as he ran toward the car in the dark she shook with fear. Yet she thought that if he was truly in need she couldn’t leave him here in this storm.The stranger explained that his car was broken, and she told him to get in the car. They drove for an hour into the next city and she took him to a telephone booth (公用电话亭). When he reported back to her that a family member would soon come for him, she wished him well and left.Tears fell on her cheeks as she drove away. She felt as though she had beenholding her breath for an hour. “I hope they’ll understand why I had to break my promise,” she thought.9. What can we learn about the woman?A. She taught in small communities.B. She used to be a hitchhiker.C. She was a taxi driver.D. She seldom picked up strangers.10. What made her family worried about her safety?A. She had been hurt by a hitchhiker.B. Her sister’s friend was killed by a hitchhiker.C. There were often snowstorms on her way home.D. Her car often broke down on her way home.11. We can infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph that _________.A. She regretted picking up the stranger.B. She felt too tired to breathe.C. She had been afraid being with the stranger.D. She had been too careful driving in the storm.12. We can infer from the passage that the woman is___________.A. kind-heartedB. outstandingC. cautiousD. carelessDMany parents worry that their children’s eating habits may not be good enough to keep healthy. Some children ask for the same food over and over again, some may refuse to try anything new, and some may keep asking for snacks(点心). Therefore, having healthy eating habits becomes one of the most important lessons that a child should learn. Most parents struggle with managing good eating habits and nutrition(营养) for their children. Parents should make a plan for their children’s nutritional needs.Start your child’s day with a good breakfast. Breakfast is necessary to provide the nutrition for an active day. Studies show that children do better in study when they begin a day with a good breakfast.Allow your child to help you plan and prepare a meal. He will be glad to eat foods that he has helped to put on the table.The mealtime environment has a lot to do with how your child will feel about food. Try to serve your meals at the same place at the same time of a day. Keep the meal itself as the main event and leave the toys and television for later use.Snacks are also important. We can give our body and brain energy by eating snacks between meals. Children are often hungriest in the afternoon after school andin the evening.Offer snacks at regular time between meals. This way, your child won’t refuse a meal because he knows a snack is soon to follow. More importantly, when offering snacks, you should be careful with what to choose.13. The main idea of the second paragraph is that ___ .A. Most children go to school without eating breakfast.B. One shouldn’t eat too much for breakfast.C. A good breakfast is important to children.D. Most people haven’t realized the importance of having a good breakfast.14. To help their children form healthy eating habits, parents ____ .A. should encourage their children to eat more often at school.B. can ask the children to help with meal planning and preparation.C. must make the mealtime environment as quiet as possible.D. should serve some snacks while having a meal.15. What would most probably be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage?A. What to eat for lunch and supper.B. Why snacks are important.C. Advice on how to keep healthy.D. Examples of healthy snacks.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AWhen you’re on the go, your best friend and resource can be your phone. In the age of smart phones, apps are like guiding stars: They can point you in the right direction for a hotel, lis t expenses, send postcards, and much more. When used tog ether, these apps can be the basic travel tool, placing a wealt h of information at your fingertips no matter where you are on the planet. U.S. News Travel has picked the essential travel a pps, known for their utility and reliability. Best of all, they cost absolutely nothing.Trip ItYour Personal Travel AgentBe your own travel agent and plan every detail of your trip—from car rental to accommodating restaurants—with Trip It.

The Weather Free app informs you (in English) of the climate in various loc ations. It features the local weather, and other key factors thatwill inform your decision about what to wear before stepping outside.GobyYour Event GuruWhen you're in a foreign city, you sometimes look around and ask: Where are all the people? Goby has the answer. This ap p pinpoints the neighborhood hot spots (including museums, hotels, eateries, and more) in your neighborhood. But its true value comes in finding nearby events. You'll discover concerts , plays, and more right around the corner.1. What is the advantage of using travel apps picked by the U. S. News Travel?A. They can solve any problem you come across.B. They reduce your travel budget.C. They exercise your fingertips.D. They are reliable and free of charge.2. With the help of the travel apps used together, travelers ca n do the following things EXCEPT .A. rent a carB. decide what to wearC. look for a friend while travelingD. find the nearby museums3. Where are the readers likely to read the passage above?A. In a geography textbookB. In a scienc e and technology magazineC. On a popular websiteD. In a business rep ortBTim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York – he in computers, she in special edu cation. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It wa s the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about lif e’s purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Ima gination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s foundatio n (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to ag e five in the singer’s hometown of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thoug ht, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we r etire,” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a r eminder.”Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on thedesk, Tim clicked on . The program ha d been opened up to partners who could take advantage of b ook and postage discounts.The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books – reviewed each year by teachers, literacy speciali sts and Dollywood board members – included classics such a s Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like An na Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mot her of four, is more than grateful: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of.”The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 2 00 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim.“Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Libr ary?A. Give out brochures.B. Do something similar.C. Write books for childrenD. Retire from being a teacher.According to the text, Dollly Parton is .A. a well-known surgeonB. a mother of a four-year-oldC. a singer born in TennesseeD. a best-selling authorWhy did the Richters go to Dollywood?A. To avoid signing up online.B. To meet Dollywood board members.C. To make sure the books were the newest.D. To see if the books were of good quality.What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?A. He needs more money to help the children.B. He wonders why some people are so busy.C. He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.CHave you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a son g you used to sing when you were a child – a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the rela tionship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and rand omly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simpl y speak the words. They had the second group speak the wor ds to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian languag e for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language t ests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hu ngarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, s uch as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singer s came out on top. The people who learned these new Hunga rian words by singing them showed a higher overall performa nce. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned t he words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to lear n a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things whe n they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5. Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to l earn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh’s web site Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experiment al evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”8. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to .A. recall the pastB. attract the readersC. introduce the topicD. compare the childh ood with the present9. According to the passage which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?A. HungarianB. SpanishC. ItalianD. English10. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude thatA. singing is the best way to learn a language.B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language le arners sing the words.C. a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner.D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other.11. In which situation can the finding of the research be applie d?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.C. A student is going to learn a new English song.D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.DIn my generation, most people assume. We assume that after getting a driver’s license, we should see a brand new car sitti ng in our driveway. We assume that the latest iPhone product should be in our hands as soon as something goes wrong wit h our old one. We also assume that college, being as expensi ve as it is, is given. However, what we don’t realize is that all of these things are very special privileges.New cars, the latest technology and college fees are somethi ng that most people have in the place where I live. I’m not necessarily complaining about this. I live in a very fortunate area, and I try to remind myself of that every day.Getting nice things is great, but sometimes, the competition th at rules our lives gets too fierce. When someone else gets so mething great, you begin to think, “Why can’t I have that?” Wh en everyone around you goes to college, you think that one d ay you will obviously do the same, because who doesn’t? Even now, being almost done with my first year of college, I c onstantly see people who forget why we’re here, and how luc ky we are to be on this campus. All of the distractions can sur ely keep you from doing your best, and they can easily make you forget your real purpose at college. The parties, friends, e vents, and overall social life can move you into a never-ending whirlpool (旋涡）of not doing schoolwork. Having fun is a part of life, but balan ce is the key when it comes to college.Appreciation nowadays is slowly fading into a distant thought. We constantly forget how lucky we are to have the things and the life that we do. Surely, who doesn’t dream of a new car w aiting for them, or that brand new iPhone that you see in all of the commercials? But wanting something is different from ex pecting it. Setting yourself up with an “I should get this” attitud e will only push appreciation further away.Appreciate what you have, but don’t expect what you don’t ha ve. Say thank you to those who help and support you, and rea lize that whoever you are, you’re lucky in a great way.12. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Assuming should be forbidden.B. People of his generation are lazy.C. What we have may be privileges.D. College education shouldn’t be expensive.13. What do we know about the author?A. He is too poor to afford a new car.B. He is sure that everyone can go to college.C. He is a fortunate second-year student.D. He is grateful for his college education.14. What does the author think of the social activities at colleg e?A. They should be balanced in students’ life.B. They are totally a waste of time and money.C. They make students confused about their life.D. They are useful for students after graduation.15. According to the fifth paragraph, people nowadays .A. don’t expect new cars or cell phonesB. don’t seem to appreciate what they haveC. always set up big goals in lifeD. often complain they are unlucky第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMy wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live. Two dog walkers passed by and we heard one of them say, “Never seen that dog around here before.”We l ooked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling (蹒跚) painfully up the hill. We stopped, bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was acollar with a phone number. I called but no one answered.The dog was painfully thin. It didn’t have any teeth left.Julie ran home to get some of our dog’s food while I tried to encourage the dog tocome along with me. Julie got home and came back again when I was only halfway there. Sowe sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food.Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket and more food, kept her warm andwondered what to do next.After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around witha bunch of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father’s dog. She was very old and got lost that morning. So, Tara was safely returned home.Here is the truth of the story:Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying topersuade me to come back, but I wasn’t hearing anything.I was about to turn and go when an old black dog walked between us and almost fell down. Suddenly we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was acreature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it.We did help it. And here I am writing the story in my own home, in my own family.In the song “Love Is Not a Fight” Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, “And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door.”Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs.1. Which of the following statements is true?A. The two dog walkers didn’t like the dog.B. After finding the dog, the writer phoned its owner.C. The old black dog was sick and weak and couldn’t walk.D. Mo st of the dog’s teeth had been pulled out by someone.2. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that .A. the dog didn’t go with the writerB. the writer had his own pet dogC. Julie bought some food for the dogD. the dog didn’t eat any of the food3. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. An Angel DogB. A Helpful CoupleC. Saving the DogD. A Famous SongBAs anyone who freelances(做自由职业)knows, there are lots of advantages of working athome a lone. But there are drawbacks too, like the potential loneliness. No wonder co-working spaces are becoming so popular: they permit self-employe d individuals to feel like theyare part of all office environment, while making them get some work done too. But rentinga co-working space does cost money.Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people’s under-used homes into temporary co-working spaces, available to freelancers for free. Hoffice was startedby freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholmwhen they invited a few people into their home o ffice to work together. It was a great success, and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe, North and South America, Australia, India and Japan. Anyone can sign up and offer their home s pace as a free co-workingspace, or go find a Hoffice near them.On a Hoffice day, everyone arrives and starts work at a certain hour. After 45 minutes, everyone gets up to take a break, stretch, do qigong or yoga for 10 to 15 minutes. Afterwards, people can gather around again, and re-state their intentions and goals for the rest ofthe work day, as a way to motivate each other. Meals can be eaten together at a certainhour, potluck-style(家常饭)or by bringing your own lunch.This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment. As some freelancers describe, “By working at Hoffice, we give ourselves and e ach other the giftto spend our days in a social working environment, where we are extremely productive without ignoring our other human needs. We also make sure to give us and each other what we needto feel calm, happy, inspired and creative during the w orking day.”So Hoffice is not just about sharing space; it’s also about a free exchange of ideas. And perhaps the best thing is that Hoffices are free to use．4. Hoffice was started to________A. change people’s attitude to wor kB. encourage people to be more socialC. improve people’s working conditionsD. provide a co-working space for free5. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?A. How people respond to HofficeB. How a Hoffice day works.C. What people share at HofficeD. What Hoffice means to people6. What do we know about Hoffice according to the text?A. It is becoming increasingly popular.B. It has been around for quite a few years.C. It has created many new job opportunities.D. It is suitable for people from all walks of life.COnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had:Be bold and brave — and mighty (强大的) forces will come to your aid.Those words made me s ee clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldombecause I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop mefrom trying at all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced bycourage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the groundagain.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat. And there is nothingmysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill,sound judgment, creative ideas —even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important thanphysical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, eventhough he weig hed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guylike a bullet —and stopped him cold.”Boldness — a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme — is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidencebuilds up. Surely, there will be setbacks (挫折) and disappointments in life; boldness initself is no guarantee of success. But the person who tries to do something and fails isa lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities —and you’ll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.7. Why was the aut hor sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?A. He faced huge risks.B. He lacked mighty forces.C. Fear prevented him from trying.D. Failure blocked his way to success.8. What is the implied meaning of the underlined part?A. Swallow more than you can digest.B. Act slightly above your abilities.C. Develop more mysterious powers.D. Learn to make creative decisions.9. What was especially important for Tim’s successful defense in the football game?A. His physical strength.B. His basic skill.C. His real fear.D. His spiritual force.10. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To encourage people to be courageous.B. To advise people to build up physical power.C. To tell people the ways to guarantee success.D. To recommend people to develop more abilities.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出最佳选项，并将其答案标号涂在答题卡上对应题目的选项处。

ALow-Cost Gifts for Mother’s DayGift No. 1Offer to be your mother’s health friend. Promise to be there fo r any and all doctor’s visits whether a disease or a regular me dical check-up.

The best part this one is free.Gift No. 2Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her medicines and w hat times she takes them. “Having all this information in one p lace could end up saving your mother’s life,” Dr. Marie Savard said.Gift No. 3Enough sleep is connected to general health conditions. “Buy your mother cotton sheets and comfortable pillows to encoura ge better sleep,” Savard said. “We know that good sleep is ve ry important to our health.”Gift No. 4Some gift companies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this Mother’s Day by picking gifts in which 10 percent of the price you pay goes to a charity (慈善机构). Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but in expensive things — many of which are “green”— and then ch oose a meaningful charity from a list. When your mother gets the gift, she will be told that she has helped the chosen charit y.1. What are you advised to do for your mother at doctor’s visit s?A. Be with her.B. Buy medicine.C.

I’d s een her before; she was a regular, like me. Every day I would ride the city bus from Burlington to Saint Michael’s college in Colchester.On this day I was riding with a friend. We were sitting in the back, observing a tone-deaf(音盲的) woman practicing her singing. Not only was her voice unb earable, but she would harass(骚扰) every person that got on or off the bus. The driver became annoyed.“Ma’am,you’ve got to settle down,” he demanded.The bus ride gave me plenty of time to think about everything.I would imagine what it would be like to have the bus driver’sjob. The man is under constant stress, narrowly missing cars while making a turning and paying attention to bus stops. When we reached our stop, my friend pulled the yellow cord t o signal the driver. The bus had a door in the front and in the middle. Since we were sitting in the back, my friend excited th rough the closer middle one. I, however, walked out through t he front, past the singing woman, giving the driver a wave and a “thank you”.“You are welcome… have a nice day,” he resp onded, sounding puzzled.I started walking with my friend. “Why do you always walk out the front? The middle door is right there,” she asked.“To say goodbye.” I responded.“What?” she said. “You’re crazy.”But I don’t think I’m crazy. I have a personal obligation(责任) to the man who transported me across town. I don’t know his name, but he deserves my respect. So many people walk through those bus doors, with little regard for others around th em. Politeness goes a long way, and a smile always lightens t he mood and brightens a room. Little acts of selfless kindness make a huge difference to people’s lives.4. Why did the driver tell the singing woman to settle down?A. The woman was tone-deaf.B. The woman has sung a long time.C. The driver was under stress that day.D. Passengers were disturbed by her voice.5. Why did the author exit through the front door?A. He was near the front door.B. He wanted to thank the driver.C.

People should treat disabled people with kindness.CLocated in the Swiss Alps, Bergun is one of the most beauti ful mountain villages in Europe. It is so beautiful that photos of it shared on social media may make people that can’t visit it f eel depressed, so local authorities banned tourists from taking photos.It may sound like a joke, but it’s actually a new law approve d by its mayor(市长). The justification for the photo ban is that photos of the be autiful village could make people seeing them on social media jealous(嫉妒的) and depressed. To prevent visitors from taking photos in B ergun, a symbolic €5 fine will be given to those caught breaki ng the law.“We don’t want to make people outside the community unhap py by sharing social media photos of our landscape, and we warmly invite people to visit Bergun to experience it in person.” said the mayor.However, it seems unlikely that Bergun’s new law was really t hought up as a way to spare people from the depressing expe rience of seeing the beauty of the village. As the news spread online, many guessed that it was actually a clever marketing scheme, and this theory was partially confirmed by the village’s director of tourism, Marc-Andrea Barandun.“Now everyone is talking about Bergun, so it’s a combination of both — we made the law and also there’s some marketing aim behind it.” Barandun added that it was unlikely that anyon e would actually be fined for taking a photo in the village.To show that they were serious about the law, Bergun authorities removed photos of the village from Facebook and Twitter, and have declared their purpose to remove them from the Ber gun website too. If the new law is just a promotional(营销的) tool, it actually worked wonders, as people started posting more photos of the village soon after the news of the photo b an started making headlines.8. Why did Bergun authorities forbid visitors to take photos of their village?A. It was only a joke made by the authorities.B. The photos may cause uneasy feeling.C. The authorities wanted to get more fines.D. The photos prevented visitors visiting the village.9. The underlined word “justification” in Paragraph 2 can be re placed by “________”.A. evidenceB. backgroundC. reasonD. desire10. What can we learn from the words of Marc-Andrea Barandun?A. The law will not be applied strictly.B. Visitors should treat the law seriously.C. The law is only a trick to attract visitors.D. The law may have a bad effect on the tourism.11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. People will post more photos online to break the law.B. The photos of the village will disappear soon online.C. Fewer and fewer people will visit the village.D. The village will become better-known.D’s new robot HSR is devoted to a single task: picking things u p. HSR is short for “human support robot”. It comes with a sin gle mechanical arm that can hold objects of various shapes a nd sizes and pick up smaller items with a tiny cup. It doesn’t h ave other tricks, except for a computer panel on its head for s urfing the Internet. A person can also access the robot from a nother computer and use it like a camera-phone.HSR will first be used for people with disabilities and then for t he elderly in general. Picking up is especially challenging for p eople with spinal(脊柱的) disorders and other illnesses. Although it can only do one simple task of picking up, it’s already making disabled people quite happy. “We’re just getting started, but eventually it will e nter people’s homes,” the engineer Kouichi Ikeda said. Nearly40 percent of ’s population will be 65 or older by 2060 and the rest of the developed world and some developing nations will follow it. “People feel more comfortable asking a robot to pic k up after them than asking a human helper,” said Ikeda.came up with the idea of HSR in 2012. The model should be ready to enter universities, research facilities and businesses next year, where it can get more applications. One disadvanta ge is that mass(大规模的) production is needed for the price to come down.The robot has several cameras, including two on its head that look like its eyes and sensors(感应器) on its body. It runs quietly around in all directions. Unlike o ther robotic arm, HSR’s hold and bumps are designed to be s oft so they can’t hurt anyone. But it can pick up items that wei gh up to 2.6 pounds.12. What do we know about HSR?A. It can fulfill various needs.B. It can help get different things.C. It can be made into different sizes.D. It cannot be used to surf the Internet.13. In the eyes of Ikeda, the robot ________.A. faces many problemsB. will have a bright futureC. is intended for the disabledD. works best in hospitals for patients14. What is the problem with HSR from now?A. Its size.B. Its shape.C. Its cost.D. Its function.15. What is special about HSR compared with other robots?A. It is safe to use.B. It moves quickly.C. It works by sensors.D. It has many cameras.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,共10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
