An unusual outdoor bookstore recently opened in Nanjing, China. There is no cash desk and no working staff to keep an eye on the books. Instead, Visitors are invited to read on offer and pay whatever they want for books by dropping the money in a lock-box.
Organizers say the Honesty Bookstore is a social experiment meant to raise awareness of honesty and integrity (正直) . Believe it or not, so far, people have been doing the right thing. With no staff around, there is absolutely nothing stopping people from just taking the books they like and leaving without paying anything for them. Well, that is nothing but their conscience. According to several news reports from china, people have actually been dropping money inside the box of their own free will, and Honesty Bookstore organizers claim that the raised money is enough to cover costs.
Honestly bookshop, located on Xinjiekou street, Nanjing, managed to sell over 300 books on the opening day, with customers paying what organizers say was basically the right amount. A total of 800 books were sold over the weekend , and not a single one was stolen.
News about the bookstore’s functional payment model has been greatly welcomed in china, especially since similar experiments had less positive results in the past. Two years ago, we wrote about a small self-service resta urant in China’s Fujian Province, where patrons were invited to pay what they felt was the true price of the meal. Around 20% of them simply walked out without paying anything, and owners reported losses of 250,000 yuan in a very short time despite the place being packed every day.
4. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Nothing can stop people from taking the books they like.
B. People put money inside the box based on the price of the books.
C. The Honesty Bookstore isn’t at a loss.
D. Honesty Bookstore organizers consider the experiment a failure.
5. What’s the prospect of the Honesty Bookstore according to the passage?
A. Positive
B. Negative
C. Doubtful
D. Worried
6. what could be the best title for the text ?
A. Honestly bookshop’s future.
B. An experiment about people’s honesty.
C. An unusual bookstore
D. The popularity of a bookstore.
7. According to the passage, we can infer _______.
A. Honesty Bookstore organizers aren’t satisfied with the result of the experiment.
B. the bookstore’s functional payment style will be popular
C. people’s honesty and integrity completely withstand the test
D. the small self-service restaurant in China’s Fujian Province is successful
C
Birds ‘shout’ to be heard over the noise produced by human-made activities, new research has shown.
The study led by Dr Caitlin Kight looked at how bluebirds changed their songs in response to increases in nearby background noise caused by human activities.
In the research Dr Kight found that, as background noise increased, male bluebirds produced songs that were louder and lower-pitched. The results suggest that birds are able to perceive increases in noise and respond accordingly— not unlike humans do when in noisy settings.
Dr Kight said that the research could help improve our understanding of environmental effects on animal communication, as well as raise our awareness of what sorts of human modifications can impact animals, and how we might be able to reduce any negative effects of these disturbances.
Dr Kight said: “Although much human—made noise is often different from that found in nature, there can be surprising similarities in certain features. Sounds caused by traffic, for example, may not be hugely different from those produced by waterfalls or heavy winds. Animals that evolved in habitats with those natural features may therefore already have the flexibility to respond to noise pollution. This certainly seems to be the case with bluebirds.”
Although it has previously been shown that birds in noisier areas tend to sing differently than those in quieter surrounds, it was not immediately clear whether birds were able to make vocal adjustments in real time—that is, an immediate shift in response to increased noise made by a passing car, for example. Real-time adjustments have now been observed in five different bird species. The current study is the first
to describe this behavior in a member of the thrush（画眉）family.
8.Why did scientists carry out the study?
A. To prove noise pollution is harmful to people.
B. To show how sensitive birds are to loud noise.
C. To explain why birds “shout” instead of singing.
D. To find out how birds react to the increased noise.
9. What does the underlined word “perceive” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Switch.
B. Realize.
C. Admire.
D. Reduce.
10. How did bluebirds develop the ability to respond to noise pollution?
A. By comparing different noise.
B. By learning from other species.
C. By living in habitats with natural noise.
D. By facing man-made noise day by day.
11. The significances of the research in the fourth paragraph are the following EXCEPT .
A. to know bluebirds’ response to the increasing noise
B. to raise our awareness of what kinds of human activities can impact animals
C. to improve our understanding of environmental effects on animal communication
D. to get to know how to reduce any negative effects of these disturbances
D
Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.
While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.
The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.
Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.
Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the
product’s location in th e store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.
The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intende d to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.
12. Which is the typical character of social robots?
A. They are more like human beings.
B. They can control their emotions.
C. They do the normal housework.
D. They respond to users more slowly.
13. According to Paragraph 3 we can know a Jibo robot can _______?
A. communicate with you and perform operations
B. obey your orders and remind you to take pills
C. answer your questions and make requests
D. take your family pictures and deliver milk
14. We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will ______.
A. train employees
B. take the place of workers
C. improve technologies
D. be our workmates
15. The passage is mainly about .
A. a new design idea of household robots
B. an introduction to social robots
C. information on household robots
D. marketing strategies for social robots
