21．（6分）An online supermarket company—Ocado in the UK, has recently displayed a robotic hand that can pick fruits and vegetables!
When an embryo is in the womb (子宫), the very first sense it develops is touch. The sense of touch is also the one that lasts the longest—as we get older and our vision and hearing begins to weaken, touch still remains. Humans use
their touch to protect themselves, to create emotional relationships with other people and to experience pleasure. Can you imagine life without it?
The sense of touch comes from a net work of nerve endings (神经末梢) and special touch receptors on the surface of the skin. While there are different kinds of touch receptors, they help us judge pressure, texture and vibrations (震动). They are located in our fingertips, palms, soles of our feet, face, lips and tongue.
When we touch something, the mechano-receptors feel the touch and through a network of nerves send signals to the brain. This informs the brain about the location of the touch, the amount of force used, and the speed at which it was used.
Several different techniques have been tried in the past few years to create such a robotic hand—using three fingers. But this latest design by Soma copies the human hand. The gripper (钳子) is made up of flexible materials which grasp the thing based on its size and shape. Then air pressure is used to control the movement of the robotic fingers to pick objects safely and without causing damage.
The next step would be for the robot to judge how ripe the fruits and vegetables are, and apply pressure accordingly. Members of the research team are currently working on adding computerized vision to the robots, so that they can see what they are grasping.
Does all this mean robots can replace people? According to Ocado, it helps improve productivity by removing some of the repetitive tasks done by humans.
1、What is focused on in the second paragraph?
A．The origin of touch.
B．The importance of touch.
C．The development of touch.
D．The process of transporting touch.
2、What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The brain. B．The touch.
C．The nerve. D．The signal.
3、What is the typical feature of the latest robots?
A．They can see what they're taking hold of.
B．They can take the place of people in work places.
C．They can tell whether the fruits and vegetables are ripe.
D．They can hold things firmly according to their outer features.
4、What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．A Sense of Touch for Robots
B．A Robotic Hand for Classifying Fruits
C．A Robotic Hand with a Gentle Touch
D．A Robot Made of Flexible Materials
22．（8分）Entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and Space X, Eldon Musk may have a little more time on his hands, as he’s leaving his position on the board of the Open Al, according to a blog post.
The departure is likely the result of Tesla’s moving into the field of Artificial I ntelligence(AI)，which he said in 2017 would be the “best in the world”and would even be able to “predict your destination, ”Musk will continue to “donate and advise the organization,” Open AI said in a blog post on Feb. 20, adding that “As Tesla continues to become more focused on AI, this will avoid a potential future conflict for Eldon.
Musk and Y Combiner CEO Sam Altman co founded the nonprofit enterprise in December2015, its mission is to develop safe artificial general intelligence and ensure those developments are made public. Open AI researchers published a paper on the site ArXiv, org, detailing the possible secure threats that come with“malicious”AI. In fact, Musk has heard the “evil AI”alarm several times, On Aug.11，2017, he warned that artificial intelligence poses a bigger threat to humanity, and he told a gathering of state governors that the government needs to regulate Al before robots start “killing people. ”
Musk’s departure from the Open AI board could mean big things for Tesla. As Eton Goodbye, a financial reporter, noted on Futurism, the move “could signal that Tesla is more deeply committed to their own AI projects than we thought. ”He added, “Those who have had their ears to any rumors (谣言)that Tesla is ready to deliver vehicles capable of Level 5autonomy could take this new Open Al development as a sign that the company is inching closer to that unapproachable goal, ”No company has reached that level of autonomy, which means that a driverless car could navigate any road under any conditio ns and that all the human “driver” would need to do is to input a destination.
1、Why does Eldon Musk leave his position?
A．To create safer AI.
B．To build powerful Internet.
C．To develop social communication.
D．To avoid a possible conflict with Tesla.
2、Wha t is the Eldon Musk’s attitude towards the AI?
A．Ambiguous.
B．Supportive.
C．Negative.
D．Sympathetic.
3、What does the underlined word “malicious” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Poisonous.
B．Unpopular.
C．Advanced.
D．Traditional.
4、What can we infer from Eton Goodbye’s comments?
A．Level 5 autonomy is impossible.
B．The rumors about Tesla is meaningless.
C．He has no confidence in Open AI.
D．Level 5 autonomy could set human drivers free.
23．（8分）Every day when Glen Oliver orders his morning coffee at the drive-through window of a local cafe, he insists on paying for the order of the person behind him. He also asks the restaurant workers to tell the customer to have a great day, in case they’re not already having one.
Oliver has never made a big deal out of his own generous actions until a letter was published by a news website in November. He found out that he had not just bought someone his breakfast —he had saved a life.
According to the website, someone had written a letter stating that on July 18th, he was planning on committing suicide. The writer said that while he was at the drive-through window, he was planning on going home, writing a note and ending his life. When he went to pay for his coffee and muffin, however, the cashier told him that the man in the SUV in front of him had picked up the tab and told him to have a great day.
“I wondered why someone would buy coffee for a stranger for no reason,” said the writer. “Why me? Why today? If I were a religious man, I would take this as a sign. This random act of kindness was directed at me on this day for a purpose.”
When the writer arrived home, he couldn’t hold back his tears and started to think about the simple good deed that had affected him so deeply. “I decided at that moment to change my plans for the day and do something nice for someone. I ended up helping a neighbor take groceries out of her car and into the house.”
The writer says that in the months following that fateful event, he does at least one kind thing for others every day. “To the nice man in the SUV, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please know your kind gesture has truly saved a life,” he said. “On July 18, 2017, I had the greatest day.”

A．It brought him thank-you letters.
B．It was reported on a news website.
C．It was the first time he’d paid for others.
D．It stopped someone from killing himself.
3、What does the underlined phrase “picked up the tab” mean in Paragraph 3?

C．Left a message. D．Ordered a drink.
4、How did the writer of the letter feel after the event?
A．He felt guilty. B．He felt grateful.
C．He felt confused. D．He felt saddened.
（8分）I visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the arrangements 24．
for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon.
Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne (王权) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.
It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B．C．and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba.
I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother, but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father, Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn’t troubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.
In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror’s
anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.
1、What did the author do for the visit to Elba?
A．He did research on its past.
B．He arranged transportation.
C．He planned bicycling routes.
D．He booked accommodation.
2、Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?
A．Napoleon and his army. B．Etruscans and other Greeks.
C．Dorians. D．Romans.
3、What does the underlined word “ensconced” probably mean?
A．Settled. B．Locked.
C．Cured. D．Controlled.
4、What came to the author’s mind during his visit to Napoleon’s gardens?
A．Beautiful views on Elba.
B．Terrible living conditions on Elba.
C．Napoleon’s ambition to regain power.
D．Hardship of Napoleon’s return to France.
25．（10分）To make room for agriculture, trees and other plants are often cleared away so that farmers have space to grow crops. The clearing of forests forces many animals from their homes. They often flee the area in search of a new place to live. There is a big downside to that. Some of those animals are natural predators. They control pest populations. They can help to clear the fields of rats, mice, and other rodents that eat and damage crops.
This happened at one small farming village in Indonesia. After land was cleared for farming, rats and mice began appearing in large numbers. Villagers tried to target the animals by smoking them out and hunting them. But the villagers were unsuccessful.
So, one farmer decided to try another method- a natural one.
Pujo Arto brought owls to his farm. Owls, after all, are experts at hunting rodents. It is what they do. And it worked! However, Pujo Arto didn't stop with his own field. He set up a Natural Predator Program. Now, owls are busy catching rats and mice in the fields around the village of Tlogoweru. There is a huge upside: no need for chemical pesticides which can harm not only rodents, but other creatures.
In 2011, the Indonesian man began setting up boxes where the owls live. He is also raising owlets in the village. After about four months, the young birds are released. These facilities have raised more than owls. They have also raised awareness in the community about the importance of owls. They raised awareness within their community by building homes for those owls. At the same time, government officials helped to create laws to protect those owls.
In addition to controlling pests naturally, there is another upside to the program. His village is now a popular stop for eco-tourists. People interested in learning more about owls, wildlife protection and natural pest control come to his village to learn more.
1、Why did the owls get away from the land around the village?
A．There was no food to eat.
B．There were too many rats and mice.
C．They were smoked away.
D．They had no place to live.
2、Natural Predator Program is .
A．to use owls to catch the crop-damaging rodents
B．to attract eco-tourists to the village
C．to raise awareness of protecting forests
D．to control pests by using chemical pesticides
3、Which of the following is the right order according to the passage?
a. introducing owls
b. pests being controlled naturally
c. rodents appearing in large numbers.
d. clearing forests
A．abcd
B．bcda
C．dcab
D．dabc
4、What is the main idea of the passage?
A．The importance of protecting owls.
B．Indonesian village uses owls to protect crops.
C．The advantages of using natural predators in agriculture.
D．The government's role in using owls to control pests.

29、Dear friends,
In recent years, many of us spend a lot of time on the Internet with its popularity. As a result, we don't write as well as we did in the past. In order to protect our Chinese characters and improve our handwriting, we'd like to offer some suggestions:
We should spend less time online so that we can have more time to read books. We'd better form the habit if keeping diaries every day to practice handwriting. Besides, it is better to write letters to our relatives and friends by hand rather than sent e-mails. Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to us students. So please pay more attention to our handwriting in the future.
Let's take action now!
