By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or anxious situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.For example, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can’t make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he fails; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook(人生观) on life , special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.If you lo ok at children, you’ll see great difference between what we call “bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out more about life--- he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.31.According to this passage, intelligence is the ability _________.A. to behave immediatelyB. to deal with lifeC. to do well in schoolD. to know what to do32. In a new situation, an intelligent person _________.A. knows more about what might happen to himB. is sure of the result he will getC. concentrates on the situationD. cares more about himself33. According to the passage the biggest difference between “bright” children and “ not “bright” children lies in _________.A. the amount of intelligenceB. the different situations they faceC. the different attitudes to lifeD. the background of life34. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. What’s real meaning of intelligence?B. What’s the “bright” children’s behavior?C. What’s a special outlook on life?D. How to live and behave in a new situation?35. In the next part of the passage, the author might continue to talk about __________.A. how to determine what intelligence isB. how education should be changedC. how to judge whether a person is intelligentD. how an unintelligent person should be taught（C）In Mountain View, Calif, nondescript white SUVs winding through the streets might appear ordinary, but a closer look inside shows that humans are not doing the driving -- the car is.A product of Google’s highly secretive research and development unit, Google X lab, Google’s self-driving cars are now being tested on city streets. The cars themselves have to figure out how to share the road with pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles. On Tuesday, a few journalists -- including CNET's Sumi Das -- were able to take a test-ride.“It’s driving itself. But after about five minutes, everyone is like, ‘Is that all it does?’ It’s just incredibly common once you get used to it," Chip Urmson, the director of Google'sself-driving car project, said.The company has been developing autonomous vehicles since 2009, and aims to make them available by 2017."Previously they had been really restricted to freeway conditions and now they're working in an actual city, which is a much more complex driving situation," Seth Rosenblatt, a senior writer at CNET, explained.Using the latest sensing technology, the vehicle is able to detect every car, person and object in the immediate area. In many ways, the cars handle the streets better than humans by avoiding other cars' blind-spots and shifting slightly in the lane to make room for cyclists, Das reports. However, the software in these vehicles is far from being ready to ship.Still, Google is racing to develop autonomous driving technology, facing competition from established car manufacturers, such as Audi, GM, Ford and Volvo.36. Which of the following is NOT true about the driverless cars?A. The cars were developed by Google in 2009 secretly.B. The cars are equipped with the latest sensor and software.C. The car can avoid obstacles automatically.D. Some journalists took part in the car test.37. What can be inferred according to the passage?A .Google is the only company that produces driverless cars.B. Google is not as famous as Audi, GM and Ford.C. Other car manufacturers are also developing driverless cars.D. The autonomous cars of Google are the best.38. What does the word “ship” in pa ragraph 6 mean?A. sail on seaB. put into marketC. take awayD. board the ship39. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To introduce Google’s new car.B. To tell us the test-ride of Google’s self-driving cars.C. To tell us the comments of journalists.D. To announce Google is producing self-driving cars.40. The passage is taken from _________.A. a science newspaperB. a travel journalC. an entertainment magazineD. a science summaryD)Phil White has just returned from an 18,000 mile, around the world bicycle trip. White had two reasons for making this epic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. He raised ￡70,000 for the British charity, Ox fam. White’s second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the faster person to cycle around the world. He is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June 2004 and was back 289 days later. He spent more than 1,300 hours in the saddle (车座) and destroyed four sets of types and three bikes chains. He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe, the Middle East, India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water or medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountain. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to escapee with his life and the little money he had. The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometers he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him．This part of the trip was slow, hard work and depressing, but he made it in the end.Now Mr. White is back and intends to write a book about his adventures.41.
