ADo you know any 9-year-olds who have started their own museums? When Theodore Roosevelt(罗斯福) was only nine, he and two of his cousins opened the “Roosevelt Museum of Natural History”. The museum was in Theodore’sbedroom. It had a total of 12 specimens(标本).On display were a few seashells, some dead insects and some birds’ nests. Young Roosevelt took great pride in his small museum.Born in New York in 1858,Theodore Roosevelt was not always healthy. “I was a sickly, delicate boy,” he once wrote. Roosevelt had a health condition called asthma（哮喘）.“He often found it hard to breathe. Instead of playing, he observed（观察） nature and then read and wrote about it.”Roosevelt’s interest in nature sometimes got him into trouble. Once, his mother found several dead mice in the icebox. She ordered him to throw them out. This was indeed“a loss to science”,Roosevelt said later. Because Roosevelt was often sickly as a boy, his body was small and weak. When he was about 12,his father urged him to improve his body. Roosevelt began working out in a gym. He didn’t become strong quickly. But he did decide to face life’s challenges with a strong spirit. That determination stayed with Roosevelt his whole life. And finally his body did get strong. As an adult, he was an active, healthy person. He enjoyed adventures and loved outdoors.In 1900, at the age of 41,Roosevelt was elected Vice President. A year later, former President McKinley, was shot and killed. Roosevelt became the 26th President of the USA. At 42,he was the youngest leader the country had ever had.21.Which of the following tells about Roosevelt as a boy?A. He liked playing outdoor sports.B. He became the President in 1901.C. He was interested in observing nature.D. He was a healthy person full of energy.22.It can be inferred(推断)that_________.A. Roosevelt’s mother liked mice.B. Roosevelt followed his father’s advice.C. everyone with asthma is small and weak.D. working out in a gym is a waste of time23.In which book might you find this passage?A. Improving Your BodyB. Living with AsthmaC. Small Museums of Natural HistoryD. The Childhoods of America’s presidentsBMy sister Alice and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette（香烟）butts（烟头）for seven years. One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It”.At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth is not your ashtray（烟灰缸）”written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the Earth. But it does, and all rubbish does!Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give to smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies want to do it. Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No ButtsAbout It” groups in America.Now there even groups in England, Australia, and India! Many newspapers have written about my sister and me over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for what we do. But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the Earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.One day, it will be.24.What did the writer think about the cigarette butts in the first place?A.

No Butts Prize.CImagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps anolder people company and helps them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $ 3-million-dollar from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or AI, to Hasbro's “Joy for All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced at over 1,000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion”(陪伴) for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed (有吸引力)to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliott is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, theresearchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people.28. What's the purpose of the project?A .To reduce the pain of the elderly.B .To increase the sales of a medicine.C To help make the robotic cat smarter.D . To invent a robotic cat for the elderly.29. What can we know about the cat?A.It will be on sale in two years.B.It may be cheaper in the future.C.Its abilities will be made simpler for the elderly.D.It can tell the activities older adults need the most.30.What does the example in Paragraph 3 show?A.The cat gives much help to the elderly.B.The cat works well to talk with the patient.C.The cat can make the dementia patient less painful.D.The cat should be designed to satisfy patients’ need.31.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Each family can afford such a cat in the future.B.A talking cat is quite popular among the elderly.C.Feelings of sadness among the elderly are unavoidable.D.The feeling of being needed is important to the elderly.DThere were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushedtowards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly(特别) relish the long train journey and had brought along many magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johor Bahru was just a city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive, I decided to wave back.From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all round me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.I looked forward to the return journey.32. Why did the author mention the families standing outside their homes?A. To show the real life of village people.B.
