【題目】閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進行續(xù)寫,使之構成一個完整的故事。

Early in the morning I went to the ocean beach to play my guitar. The usually crowded beach was deserted except for two people. On one side of the boardwalk (木板人行道) was a woman who was cleaning the beach with a broom; on the other side was a lone figure sitting and staring to sea. I chose a spot between them and began to play.

As I played, the woman with the broom swept her way right next to me. She stopped sweeping and leaned on her broom, smiling at me. She appeared to be homeless with dirty mismatched clothes.

“You sure play beautiful music.” she said. “I think my friend would like you music. I want to hire you to play for her.” She pointed to the lone figure staring out at the ocean, then produced a few coins from her pocket. “I don’t have much, and I know you’re worth a lot, but if I give this to you, will you play a song for her? She’s going through a lot. I know the music will make her feel better.”

I told her I’d be happy to play for free.

As we walked over to her friend, the Broom Lady told me that her friend had not talked for weeks.We approached, and the Broom Lady introduced me, “Annie, I got you a present to cheer you up. It’s a guitar man who is going to play a song specially for you.”

Annie didn’t move. She was wearing dark sunglasses and had an old coat pulled up to cover most of her face.

I sat next to Annie and played. As I played I put every thought into having good things happen for this woman. I played for quite a while.

Suddenly, Annie turned toward me and said, “You make it so beautiful. I can feel it inside my heart.”

Paragraph 1:

She took off her sunglasses.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:

When I stopped playing and looked up, I was shocked to see a small crowed around us.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】She took off her sunglasses. I could tell a faint glow pierced the dark clouds of frustration in her eyes. I gestured to her to sit opposite to me and she slowly moved closer. I kept on playing the guitar, trying to reveal my sympathy, understanding and comfort through the soft melodies. It seemed that she couldn’t but recall the bitter and severe days she went through as tears streamed down her cheeks. She didn’t wipe them off but had them falling down, as if all her worries and sorrows went away as well.

When I stopped playing and looked up, I was shocked to see a small crowed around us. They looked at me with enthusiasm, bursting into applause. Annie stood up and clapped her hands too. Several women, having kept an eye on her, approached and hugged her, whispering some cheerful words before they left. Refreshed and relieved, Annie threw her arms around my neck and uttered, “Thank you for your music.”, which assured the Broom Lady of her return to normal speech. I had put on numerous shows to different audiences, but this remained the most healing and rewarding one.

【題目】 Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug. Nothing is out of the ordinary, except that Nao is a robot.

“We’re modeling the first years of life,” says Lola Canamero, a computer scientist at the University of Hertforshire. “The feelings are shown through physical gestures and body movements rather than facial or verbal (言語的) expressions.”

In the future, says the scientist, robots are likely to act as companions, provide support for old people, and help people shop online. In such uses, the display of feeling will be important in making the interactions (交往) more natural and comfortable.

Nao has been programmed to copy the emotional skills of a one-year-old child. It can memorize faces, and knows the basic rules of good and bad. Based on these it can decide how to react to what is going on. The actions going with each feeling are pre-programmed, but Nao decides for itself when to display them.

Nao is also programmed to have different personalities. A more independent robot is less likely to call for help when exploring a room, while a more fearful robot will show distress if it finds something in the room that may be harmful.

Canamero’s team will take its emotional programming forward into medical applications. Part of the project will look at ways to use robots in hospitals to support the roles of doctors, nurses and parents. Children might find that a small, friendly-looking robot that can understand their emotional states makes them less anxious. “We want to explore different roles—the robots will help the children to understand their treatment and explain what they have to do. We want to help the children to control their anxiety.” she says.

1According to the text Nao_______.

A.displays different feelings in different situations

B.is able to copy adult emotional displays

C.can remember people’s feelings

D.learns feelings from facial expressions

2What can we learn from the text?

A.Scientists worked on facial and spoken expressions to create Nao’s emotions.

B.The time when Nao displays feelings has been pre-programmed.

C.Emotional programming is used in medicine production.

D.Robots with emotional skills can help children feel more comfortable.

3What can’t robots do in the future according to the scientist?

A.They can work as your companion.

B.They can aid old people .

C.They can shop with you.

D.They can show their feelings.

4What is the text mainly about?

A.The relationship between humans and robots.

B.The roles that robots play in different fields.

C.The first robot able to show feelings.

D.The long history of robots.

【題目】They like using the Internet. They have lots of pocket money to spend, and they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us. Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy games, CDs and clothing are easily sold on the Web.

But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards. Most have to use a parent’s card. They want a service that allows them to spend money.

That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (網(wǎng)絡的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic. If successful, these products can stimulate (刺激)online sales.

In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and £20bn annually in the UK. Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school 88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK. According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online mainly CDs and books.

In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children. Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street. They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online.

One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cyber cash is through prepaid cards such as Internet Cash in the US and Smart cards in the UK. Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as£20 or $50 with a concealed (隱藏的) 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.

1What does the word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A. Sellers. B. Teenagers C. Buyers. D. Parents.

2According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.

B. Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.

C. More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.

D. Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.

3A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use _________.

A. prepaid cards B. special coins and notes

C. a new machine D. pay-as-you-go mobile phones

4What is the passage mainly about?

A. The arrival of cyber pocket money. B. Internet users in the US and the UK.

C. New credit cards for parents. D. Online shopping traps.
