閱讀下面的短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中選出最佳選項。

　　The Cave Crawler mining robot

　　Why do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It’ s an increasingly urgent question, given the recent high－profile(引人注目的)mining accidents in Sago, W．Va．, and Huntington, Utah．A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望)a day in the not－too－distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work．

　　One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie－Mellon University's Robotics Institute．It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart．It used lasers to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines－some of the most dangerous work in the business．

　　The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler．It's a bit smaller than Groundhog, and even more advanced．It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted that can detect the presence of dangerous gases．Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logic．If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused, it has to think through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just like a real person．

　　The biggest obstacle, though, is cost．The original research project was federally funded, but that money has dried up, and it's not clear where future funding will come from．Partly for that reason, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past．Since 1990, fatalities have declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, according to the National Mining Association．

　　Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry．The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs, but don't eliminate the need for human workers．

Why do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world？It’s an increasingly urgent question，given the recent high?profile(引人注目的) mining accidents in Sago，W.Va.and Huntington，Utah.A small group of engineers and robotics experts look forward to a day in the not?too?distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work.

Robotic technology，in particular，holds much promise，McAteer says，especially when it comes to mapping mines and rescuing trapped miners—the special operations of the mining industry.

One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie?Mellon University’s Robotics Institute.It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart.It used lasers(激光器) to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.

The latest design is called Cave Crawler.It’s a bit smaller than Groundhog，and even more advanced.It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted(增加) that can detect the presence of dangerous gases.Incredibly，the robot has a real sense of logic.If it comes across an obstacle it gets confused.It has to think through the process and where to go next，and sometimes it throws_a_fit just like a real person.

The biggest obstacle，though，is cost.The original research project was federally funded，but that money has dried up，and it’s not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that reason，and partly because of advances in safety，mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past.Since 1990，fatalities(致命性) have declined by 67 percent and injuries by 51 percent，according to the National Mining Association.

Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry.The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs，but don’t eliminate(消除) the need for human workers.

三、完形填空：請閱讀下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后從36~55各題所給的四個選項（A、B、C或D）中，選出最佳選項。

A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was 36 was that he found himself unable to ask for help—his mobile phone went out of 37 as a result of exhausted（用盡的）battery. Nothing could be done but  38 in the cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke and then the 39 of the rescue team.

It is almost 40 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41: “First of all I checked my 42 conditions and found myself not in danger. As there was no 43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44. In this way I dozed（打盹）off.”

His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration that happened last year. A group of young men 46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 47 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 48. Finally, they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 49 team that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 50 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 51 themselves, they would probably have sensed a faint light glowing not far away.w

Don’t you think that you can compare it with 52 itself? When you meet with difficulties in life, you are lost in darkness. Focus that it’s unclear to you yet and you needn’t put up struggle 53. It seems to be a negative（消極的）attitude, 54 a person who can do so must have foresight as well as a great 55 in the first place.
