He is the youngest motivational speaker in Pakistan, and probably the world, a free writer and a lecturer at a university, where he teaches students twice his age. He has been referred to as a “super kid”, and even “the little genius of Pak istan”.“He is not an ordinary child. I have seen abilities in him. That’s why I have appointed special teachers for him,” Safi’s father ,Abdul said, “ I want him to become a special leader. I’m very proud … For his abilities ,for his intelligence.”Abdul’s description may seem exaggerated(夸张的) but the boy is indeed beyond his years. How many 11- year-olds do you know can command the attention of thousands of adults while speaking on serious topics like success, life challenges or responsibility? Hammad can, and he does it with ease, relying in his great charm, practiced hand gestures and a confidence that attracts his audiences greatly.“A few months ago, I was really disappointed with life. I was thinking about suicide, because there are no jobs and no success in life,” a student said, “Then I saw a movie of Hammad Safi. I thought if an 11-year-old child can do anything, why can’t I ?”That is what makes Safi so special, his power to get his message across and inspire people much older than him.Many in Pakistan are astonished by Hammad’s self-confidence and his ability to lecture on important subjects, but there are also those who believe that this role is depriving the boy of his childhood.25.which statement about Hammad Safi is not correct?A .His audience is much older than he is .B. He is the youngest motivational speaker in the world.C. People in Pakistan think highly of him.D. His father is also proud of him very much.26. What can’t you learn from Hammad Safi’s speech?A. We can realize the importance of responsibility.B. We can get confidence to deal with life challenges.C. We can remember the happy memory of childhood.D. We can understand the relationship between confidence and success.27. What does the un derlined word “depriving” in the last paragraph mean?A. To guarantee that something will happen.B. To make somebody imagine.C. To take away something by force.D. To give up something all by oneself.28. What is the main idea of the passage?A. It introduces a very famous speaker.B. It introduces a young motivational speaker.C. It tells us how to give people confidence.D. It tells that people in Pakistan are living without motivation.CEven as Google plans to test its fleet（车队）of self-driving cars on public roads this summer, its business model remains a bit of a mystery. By 2025, as many as 250,000 self-driving vehicles could be sold each year globally, according to a study by an industry research firm."Vehicles that can take anyone from A to B at the push of a button could transform mobility for millions of people," said Chris Urmson, director of Google's self-driving car project. For now, Google has no plans to sell any of its self-driving cars. They are strictly for research. But they will hit public roads this summer near Google's headquarters in Mountain View, California. Previous testing has taken place only on closed courses.The cars are built to operate without a steering wheel, accelerator（油门）or brake pedal. "Our software and sensors do all the work," Urmson said. "The vehicles will be very basic—we want to learn from them and adapt them as quickly as possible—but they will take you where you want to go at the push of a button." The prototype （雏形）are the first of a 100-car fleet the tech giant is building.In the long run, Urmson sees a future of safer roads—the majority of auto accidents are caused by human error—and fewer traffic jams. Robotic cars could also shuttle people who can't drive because of age or illness.Google has said that self-driving cars could launch new business models in which people buy the use of vehicles they don't own. The company has already tested other types of self-driving cars on public streets, including modified Lexus sport-utility vehicles, under a special permit program by the California Department of Motor Vehicles that requires a human driver at the controls.The state has issued six other companies permits to operate such cars, including Delphi, Mercedes-Benz,V olkswagen, Tesla, Bosch and Nissan. The vehicles that will be tested on open roads this summer will have removable steering wheels, accelerators and brake pedals to allow "safety drivers" to take control if needed.Google says the cars are safe. The vehicles have sensors that "can detect objects out to a distance of more than two football fields in all directions, which is especially helpful on busy streets with lots of intersections," Urmson said. "We're looking forward to learning how the community understands and interacts with the vehicles, and to uncovering challenges that are unique to a fully self-driving vehicle," Urmson said.29. The passage informs us that self-driving cars __________.A. will probably decrease traffic jamsB. have already passed necessary testsC. have been purchased by some companiesD. will be able to communicate with drivers30. According to Chris Urmson, ______________.A. software and sensors are vital for self-driving carsB. self-driving cars can give driving orders to humansC. self-driving cars are specially designed for the elderlyD. ordinary vehicles will be replaced by self-driving cars31. What is the best title for this passage?A. Self-driving Car Avoids Human ErrorsB. Self-driving Car Meets New ChallengesC. Google's Self-driving Car Enjoys Global PopularityD. Google's Self-driving Car Graduates to City StreetsDSunday is more like Monday than it used to be. Places of business that used to keep daytime “business hours” are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant（不相关的）. A half century ago in the United States, most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time. Today the boundaries still exist, but they seem not clear.The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does. It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer; in most, it still does. And whether the work week should strengthen its legal limits, or whether it should become more “flexible,” is often debated. How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the boundaries of time until we live in a world inwhich every minute is much like every other?These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we rarely recognize the “law of time” even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to attend school a certain number of hours, a certain number of days, a certain number of years — but unless we meet the truant officer (学监), we may well think that we should go to school due to social custom and parents’ demand rather than to the law. As adults we are familiar with “extra pay for overtime working,” but less familiar with the fact that what constitutes（构成）“overtime” is a ma tter of legal definition. When we turn the clock forward to start daylight-saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: “Here is the law in action”? As we shall see, there is a lot of law that has great influence on how we organize and use time: compulsory education law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law — as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of time to examine and assess.32. By saying “Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be”, the writer means that_______.A. work time is equal to rest timesB. the line between work time and rest time is unclearC. it is hard for people to decide when to restD. many people have a day off on Mondays33. The author raises the questions in Paragraph 2 to introduce the fact that people ________.A. fail to make full use of their timeB. enjoy working overtime for extra payC. welcome flexible working hoursD. are unaware of the law of time34. According to the passage, most children tend to believe that they go to school because they ______.A. need to acquire knowledgeB. have to obey their parentsC. need to find companionsD. have to observe the law35. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Our life is governed by the law of time.B. How to organize time is not worth debating.C. New ways of using time change our society.D. Our time schedule is decided by social customs.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。
