DGEWOOD — Every morning at Dixie Heights High school, customers pour into a special experiment: the district’s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.

Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.

By closing time at 9:20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.

“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good,” Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after chatting with the teacher on the line.

The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school. They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.

Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.

Not that it was easy. Chevalier’s first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?

Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (營養(yǎng)) guidelines.

The whole school has joined in to help.

Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the morning. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.

What is the text mainly about？

   A. A best-selling coffee.                               B. A special educational program.

   C. Government support for schools               D. A new type of teacher-student relationship.

The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to       .

   A. raise money for school affairs                  B. do some research on nutrition

   C. develop students’ practical skills               D. supply teachers with drinks

How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzman’s opinion of the chi tea？

   A. She once met her in the shop.                  B. She heard her saying it with others.

   C. She talked to her on the phone.                D. She went to her office to deliver the tea.

We know from the text that Ginger Gray       .

   A. starts the guidelines for coffee shops       B. sees that the drinks meet health standards

   C. teaches at Dixie Heights High School        D. manages the Dixie PIT program in Kenton County

TOKYO, Japan (AP) – Japan is very serious about robotics (機(jī)器人技術(shù)). If the androids are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are exploring just that. In a show this week, an android（有人特點(diǎn)的）with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors(感應(yīng)器)embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate（模仿）life with robot technology.
“A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you,’” said University of Tokyo professor Tomomasa Sato. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”
Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden（臥床不起的）. Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan.
The walking, child–size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at showrooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot on wheels called Papero. A robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of companionship.
Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices（設(shè)備）monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail.
On the bright side, the tea – pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes.
【小題1】What is the best title of this passage?

A．“Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan
B．Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan
C．Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly.
D．Robot technologies are widespread in Japanese daily life.
【小題2】The underlined word “embedded” in the first paragraph probably means      .
A．fixedB．establishedC．settledD．rooted
【小題3】According to Professor Sato,       .
A．the robot serves tea much faster than a human being
B．the robot does anything like human beings
C．tea – serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society
D．tea – serving robot doesn’t need any reward for the service
【小題4】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks.
B．A robot has been programmed to clean the dishes.
C．All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots.
D．The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan.
【小題5】We can infer from the passage that        .
A．people are afraid of being monitored by robots.
B．the technology of robots has been highlighted（強(qiáng)調(diào)） in Japan.
C．robots can completely take the place of human beings.
D．people’s privacy should be strictly protected

The tea gardens in Sri Lanka are actually large estates(種植園). The best tea usually comes from plants grown on high grounds, the cool hilltops with rows and rows of tea plants. The plants are about one metre apart. The plant is often pruned so that it remains only 60 to 90 centimetres high. Pruning is important because it encourages the growth of tender hoots, or young leaves. It is from these shoots that the best in got.

Practically all the tea pickers are women. The estates like to employ women pickers because they are more careful. Their thin fingers can easily remove the twin leaves and new shoots from the plant, which are the parts used for processing(加工)tea. The pickers carry large baskets into which they throw their pickings. A skilled worker can harvest between 9 to 14 kilogrammes of tea leaves a day. Usually new shoots can be picked from the plants about every ten or fifteen days.

Processing tea shoots into the familiar dry tea leaves requires great care and skill. There are various methods of processing depending on the type of tea required. For black tea, the young green leaves are first spread out on shelves to dry. This process removes much of its water and the leaves become soft. After this, the leaves are passed through heavy rollers. This operation will press the leaves for juices which give the tea both its colour and taste. Then the leaves are spread out on floors and left to ferment(發(fā)酵)under wet conditions. Fermentation develops the rich taste of black tea. The fermented leaves are then dried with a hot­air blower until they become rolled­up black leaves. The final step is to sort and grade them before the black tea is ready for sale to countries all over the world.

1.In the first paragraph, the word“pruning”means______.

A．regular cutting of the plants.               B．frequent watering

C．regular use of chemicals                  D．growing the plants high in the mountain

2.One of the reasons why women are employed to do the picking is that________.

A．they work harder than men do in picking

B．they can throw their picking more easily into the baskets

C．their fingers fit them better for the job

D．they can move easily find the twin leaves

3.How many processing steps are mentioned in the last paragraph?

A．Three.　          B．Four.             C．Five.　           D．Six.

4.What's the writer's purpose in writing the passage?

A．To introduce various methods of tea processing.

B．To persuade readers to buy tea from Sri Lanka.

C．To tell a story that had happened in the tea gardens.

D．To inform readers of tea growing, picking and processing.

“You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote(說法) I heard.” Mary’s aunt said.

She poured tea. There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table.

They took their tea cups.

“What quote?” Mary asked.

“Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story,” aunt said, “I heard that there was a wise teacher who took all his students for tea. They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different. Each of them took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others. The teacher let them do that for a while and then said,‘ Do you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other’s tea cup and I can see some of you with the broken ones are even envious(羨慕的) of the finer cups of others. Is this not so?’ ”

The students agreed, amused by their own behavior.

“You may have wondered why you all had different cups, but I put them here on purpose. You see they represent (代表) life itself. Life is like that tea and the cups are like the physical circumstances(狀況) of your life. You all got the same thing in your cups — tea. And yet you can not truly enjoy it in your envy of another’s cup. It’s just the same with life. You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on envying the circumstances of someone else’s life.

So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea. Really taste it. And tell me — did it matter from which cup it came from?”

Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, tasting their tea. A sleepy fly buzzed(嗡嗡作響) past, a bird sang in the tree. And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup they drank.

B．shouldn’t focus on envy others’ physical circumstances

C．can never change their physical circumstances
