That’s what people often say when they talk about computers. For over a quarterof a century,engineers have been making better computers. Now a computer can do a lot of everyday jobs wonderfully. It is widely used in factories, hospitals and banks. A computer can report,decide and control in almost every field. Many computer scientists are now thinking of making the computer“think”like a man. With the help of a person,a computercan draw pictures,write music,talk with people,play chess,recognize voices,translate languages and so on . Perhaps computers will one day really think and feel. Do you think that people will be afraid when they find that the computer is too clever to listen to and serve the people?21.Engineers have worked on computerfor _______A. about a hundred yearsB. more than twenty -five yearsC. over three months C. about ten years22.Some people think that a computer is _________people.A. cleverer thanB. ad clever asC. not cleverer thanD. slower thanputers are _______the peopleA. doing more and more jobs forB. going to laugh atC.going to listen toD. taking the place of24.With the help of a person, a computer can________.A. draw picturesB. write musicC. talk with people or play chessD. do all above25.People will______the computers in the future.A. really be afraidB. make better use ofC. no longer useD. help( F )Men sometimes say,“We are better and cleverer than women. Women never invent things. We do.”It is true that men have invented a lot of useful things: machines,radios and guns,too. But scientists now agree that women invented one very important thing. It has changed history. They invented agriculture. Before invention of agriculture, men were hunters. They went out every day. Sometimes they killed animals, sometimes animals killed them. Life was difficult and dangerous. Women had to go out every day,too. They collected corn, fruit and grasses. Then,one day more than 10,000 years ago, a woman dropped some grass seeds near her home in the Middle East. They grew –and the first wheat was born. The idea grew,too.Women planted corn and fruit trees. Then they could stay at home and look after the children and the animals. Women like baby animals. Scientists think that women kept the first domestic animals: digs, cows and sheep. The idea grew,too. Then their husbands did not have to go hunting for meat. They stayed at home.They built villages and cities. Civilization began. Min began civilization after women invented agriculture. 26．Before the invention of agriculture life was difficult because____________.A.hunters sometimes killed other huntersB.hunters did not always get meatC.women went out to hunt every dayD.animals sometimes killed the women and children27.From the passage we know that domestic animals are________A. animals that feed on grassB. animals that live in natural conditionsC. animals whose meat can be used as foodD. animals that are kept at home28.After the first wheat was born, women soon saw that they could _________.A. go out and look for foodB. go hunting for meatC. plant corn,and fruit trees at homeD. go out to collect corn and fruit29.

One Monday, when he went to the table at which he usually sat, he saw that there was a new waitress in the restaurant. She was very young and looked rather hot and worried. Jack sat down, and when the waitress came to him, he asked for some vegetable soup. The new waitress wrote this down in a little notebook and went to order it in the kitchen.There were a lot of people in the restaurant, and the new girl was very busy, but at last she came to Jack with a plate on a large dish. She put the plate down in front of him, and he saw that it was not the vegetable soup which he had asked for , but some fish and potatoes.The waitress was getting ready to turn away again, but Jacl stopped her,“Miss,”he said,“Idid not order fish and potatoes, Iordered vegetable soup.”“Oh,”she answered, “I thought that you asked for fish.”“No,”said Jack,“Look at the notebook which you wrote my order in and you will see that I ordered vegetable soup.”The new waitress looked everywhere in her little notebook, and at last she found Jack’order.“‘Table No.24’,”she read out ,“One vegetable soup.Yes,I am sorry,Igot confused. I shall change it.”She put the notebook down on Jack’s table, took out her pencil, crossed out the words“vegetable soup”and wrote“fish and potatoes”instead.

What do you think of the waitress?A. CarefulB. Careless.C. Quick.D. Kind.( H )Open your dictionary at any page. At the top of the page you will see two words printed in heavy type. These are known as guide words. The one on the left-hand side of the page tells you what the first word on the page is. The one on the right-hand side of the page tells you what the last word in the page is. So if you are looking for a word in the dictionary, you first look at the guide words at the head of the pages. Then you will be able to tell whether or not the word you want is on the page you are looking at.You will notice that a dictionary very often gives several meanings for one word. How could you decide which of these meanings is the one you need? First, you must know what part of speech the word is in the sentence. Is it a noun or a verb? Is it an adjective or an adverb? A word can be used in a different way in a sentence, and so may have a different sense. Next, you must see which of the meaning will fit into the sentence. It is important to study the rest of the sentence carefully in order to find out the meaning of the word36. The two words at the top of any page of a dictionary________.A.are known as those printed in heavy typesB.are called those on the left-hand side of the pageC.are known as those on the right-hand side of the pageD. are called guide words37. If you want to know what the last word on the page is , you may_________.A.look at the word in the right-hand side of the pageB.look up it in the last part of the dictionaryC.look up it in the first part of the dictionaryD. look at the word on the left-hand side of the page38. A dictionary often _______.A.tells whether or not the word you want is on any page you are looking atB.gives several meanings for one wordC.prints word in heavy typeD. gives two words in every page of it39. We would decide which of the meanings of a word in a dictionary is the one we need in the following order:______________.A.1)find out what part of speech the word is in the sentence;2)learn which of the meanings of the word in the dictionary will fit into the sentence by studying the restof the sentence carefullyB.1)know which of the meanings of the word in the dictionary will fit into the sentence;2)see what part of speech the word is in the sentence;3)study the rest of the sentence carefullyC.1)looking for a word in a dictionary;2)look at the guide words at the head of the pages;3)tell whether or not the word we want is on the page we are looking atD.1)look at the guide words at the head of the pages;2)know what part of speech the word is in the dictionary;3)find out which of the meanings of the guide words will fit into the sentence40. If in the dictionary you look up “load”in the sentence “We use an inclined plane to load or unload a truck”and the dictionary says:1. n. a burden; 2. n. amount of work….; 3. vt. put a burden on or into; 4. vt. add extra weight to …..Which meaning of the word makes the right sense in the sentence?A. The first.B. The second.C. The third.D. The fourth（I ）Tom was a shopkeeper. He had a small corner shop. It was open from seven in the morning until eleven at night and sold many different things. Tom worked hard in his shop but he had a good business and he was happy.Then a supermarket opened across the street. The supermarket was ten times the size of Tom’s shop.The manager of the supermarket wanted to take people away from Tom. He found out what Tom’s prices were and then made his lower than Tom’s.People quickly stopped buying things from Tom’s shop. They bought everything from the supermarket instead. Soon Tom’s business was very bad and he was angry.“It’s not fair,”Tom thought,“I must do something to teach that supermarket manager a lesson.”The price of steak in the supermarket was $5.00 a pound. Tom put a sign in his window, “Steak--$4.50 a pound.”The next day the price of steak in the supermarket was $4.25 a pound, Tom changed the sign in his window. “Steak--$4.00a pound.”An hour later,the sign in the supermarket said, “Steak--$3.75 a pound.” Ten minutes later the sign in Tom’s window said,“Steak--$3.50 a pound.” Five minutes later the sign in the sup ermarket said,“Steak--$2.50 a pound.” Twenty seconds later the sign in Tom’s window said,“Stead--$1.00 a pound.”The manager of the supermarket ran cross the road into Tom’s shop.“This price cutting must stop,”he said,“Steak is costing me $4.00 a pound. I’m selling it at $2.50 a pound. I’m losing money every minute!”“I’ll stop cutting all my prices,”Tom said,“if you will stop cutting all yours.”The supermarket manager agreed, and the two men shook hands.Tom smiled.He had not lost any money on the steak .He didn’t sell steak at all.”41.

Suddenly, a strong wind blows up the hill and lifts Daniel right off his feet. Daniel holds on to his kite tightly and is blown into the clouds. Finally he lands in a small town with a sign, “Nowhere: The Town Nobody’s Ever Heard Of”. This worries Daniel.He asks people around where Nowhere is. But all of them say, “Nowhere. Nobody knows.” He tries hard to find out the way home but he cannot. It is like an adventure until he comes across the King. Daniel talks to him and he decides to help Daniel. He claps his hands twice. A great wind comes up and pulls the kite, along with Daniel, into the clouds and back to Peace Hill.Comment (评论):The story is so amazing that I could not stop reading it.

Since 2013, Torobohas taken the national college entrance exam with other Japanese students. However, the robot has failed to get the required (必需的) score for Todai every year. This year was no exception.Torobo is part of a project called “Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo?” Japan’s National Institute of Informatics started the project in 2011. Torobo does not walk around. It is a robot brain that has arms to complete the test.Researchers of the project want to find out what intellectual abilities (智能) will be replaced by machines. Results show that Torobo has grown in ability year by year. This year it got a score higher than Japan’s national average(平均分), which is enough to enter other good universities, but not Todai. With its big database, Torobo is good at solving knowledge-based questions and mathematical calculations (数学运算). That’s why it got good scores in physics, history and math. But Torobo has a hard time thinking independently (独立地). As a result, it got weak scores in language and writing.Luckily, after four years of suffering, researchers have decided to free Torobo from taking the test. They will grow Torobo’s ability in the fields it’s doing well in, so that it can be used in those industries(工业) in the future.So while Torobo will never graduate from Todai, it can still look forward to a bright future!

When I woke up, I found myself in a terrible place. Everything around me was ugly and had nasty smells. I felt afraid. I kept hoping that I would be moved somewhere else.

They go to primary school(小学) until the age of eleven, and then secondary school until the age of sixteen or eighteen.The school year starts in September and finishes in July, with six weeks of summer vacation in between. There are also two breaks for Christmas and Easter.Most schools have a uniform, which might be a sweatshirt, a T-shirt with the school’s logo(标志), grey or black trousers for boys and a skirt for girls. Most children wear a thick coat to school because of the cold weather.But sometimes it is nice not to have to wear school uniform. About two or three times a year, many British schools have “No uniform Day”. On that day, the children come to school wearing their usual clothes, and give some money to charity(慈善).All school children in the UK learn the same subjects, such as Maths, Science, Computers, Music, Geography and History. They also need to learn at least one foreign language.

The study shows that people who eat at least three apples a day lose weight.(4) Stand up and walk aroundEvery time you use the mobile phone, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit on average (平均)two and a half hours more each day than thin people. This skill is very important as standing up and walking around will burn 50 or more calories.Use these skills, and you will have a big weight loss.36.

Health.( C )Some diseases are contagious(有传染性的)–like colds, flu, and chicken pox. But what about loneliness? Loneliness may not be a disease, at least not in the same way that chicken pox is. But loneliness can be contagious.How so? The same way that many emotions can be infectious(有传染性的). Being around someone who’s really happy can put you in a good mood. While hanging around someone who’s depressed can be, well, depressing.The same goes for loneliness. According to one study, the average（平均的）person feels lonely about forty-eight days per year. Having a lonely friend adds around seventeen extra days of lonely feelings.Following more than five-thousand people for ten years, the study observed（观察）how loneliness can spread through a group. Lonely people, it seems, transmit（传播）their sad, lonely feelings to people around them. What happens, according to the study, is that interacting（相互作用）with a lonely person can leave you with a negative feeling toward friendship generally.And so you’re more likely to have negative experiences with other friends, weakening social bonds（监禁）. If loneliness is allowed to spread unchecked, it can destroy a social network.The best way to ward off this kind of lonely contagion is to pay more attention to people on the edges of a group. Reaching out to those who are shy or don’t fit in, and are therefore lonely, can make them feel less alone. And so they’re less likely to spread lonely feelings throughout the group.41. How can many emotions be infectious?A. They spread out when people speak.B. They spread out when people work together.C. People will have the same mood when they are in the certain mood together.D. They will have the same mood when they talk about the emotions.42. From this passage, which sentence is not right?A. Loneliness is a disease. It is contagious.B. Loneliness is contagious, but it may not be a disease.C. loneliness can spread through a group.D. If you stay with a lonely person, he will leave you with a negative feeling.43. What’s the meaning for “ward off”?A. 避开B. 靠近C.接近D. 传播44. What’s the best way to ward off lonely contagion?A. We should keep away from people who are lonely.B. We should take them to the hospital.C. We should ask them to stay alone at home.D. We should give them a hand and make them be happy.45. Which title is the best title for this passage?A. Ward off the lonely peopleB. Loneliness can be contagiousC. Let’s help the lonely peopleD. To be a happy man(D)Steven Jobs, who designed Apple Computer, was not quite successful in his early years.
