24、These cute seabirds have wings, but they cannot fly. They wear a black or blue-grey overcoat, and they have a white belly, a pair of short legs, and two wings that serve as flippers (脚蹼). There are 18 types of them. We must look at their heads and necks to tell one type from another. Some have a pair of long, yellow eyebrows, some have a rock star hairstyle, some have lemon-yellow and orange markings on their cheeks (脸颊), and some just have no special markings at all. When these seabirds walk on land, they look clumsy (笨拙的). Yet, when they dive into the water, they become excellent swimmers! Most of them live in places covered by snow and ice year-round in the Southern Hemisphere, but some are found in warmer areas near the equator (赤道). What are they? These cute seabirds are penguins!
King penguins and emperor penguins are the two largest types of penguins. King penguins can reach a height of 38 inches, and emperor penguins can be 48 inches tall. The smallest penguin is the little blue penguin from Australia and New Zealand—when it stands straight, it is just about 16 inches tall. Big penguins have some advantages over their smaller relatives—big penguins can stay warm easier so they can live in a colder climate; big penguins can dive deeper and stay underwater longer so they can catch food far below the water surface.
【1】How can we tell one type of penguin from another?
A. By looking at their legs and wings. B. By looking at their heads and necks.
C. By looking at their flippers and cheeks. D. By looking at their eyebrows and hairstyles.

26、 “What’s in a name? That which we call rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
Country | custom |
Argentina | There aren’t many clear-cut naming traditions in Argentina nowadays. In the past, first-born babies were named after their parents but now the focus is on distinctiveness (特殊性). Parents choose names they like or that are fashionable. |
Brazil | When a lady got married, she changes her name. It used to be a common practice in Brazil to change your maiden name, keeping your father’s surname and adding your husband’s last name. However, the women have the choice to keep their names or make the change. As for the choice of their kids’ names, there are no rules. Some parents prefer to have a compound name, while others keep it simple. |
Turkey | In the past, it was a tradition to name the children after their grandparents, mostly from Arabic origins. But lately more and more parents leave that tradition and give their babies modern and “special” names. It was also tradition to give a second name to the child by grandparents. |
Canada | In many families, first names are chosen based on what people like. They have whole “Baby Name” books to look through and find that perfect name along with its meaning. They are also given middle names. Though no spoken or written rules, these honour family members. There is no reason, but it is done with respect. |

27、Many companies use guards and expensive alarm systems (报警系统) to protect their property (财产). Soon a new kind of protection will be used—robots. Engineers have been working on the first mobile robots for businesses. The robots will patrol (巡逻) factories, warehouses (仓库), and museums at night.
The mobile robots will move around slowly on wheels. They will be able to find people through walls and pick up sounds, such as breaking glass. They can be fixed with loud sirens (警笛) to frighten thieves, or radios to signal police or guards.
To protect a building, a robot will have to move around without knocking into the walls. Information about the building will have to be stored in the robot’s small, built-in computer. A floor map could be programmed into the computer’s memory, for example.
A mobile robot will not be able to do everything. Unlike human guards, it will not be able to climb stairs, open doors, or move along rough ground. It won’t be able to tell the difference between friends and enemies. Because of that, people will have to be barred from the area it patrols.
One kind of mobile robot will be able to “sense” whether a chair or box has been moved and go around it. This robot will also judge size well enough so that it won’t send an alarm if a cat crosses the room. And if someone tries to steal this robot, it will sound a loud, painful siren. The three-foot-tall robot will be hard to be stolen anyway. It will weigh about 200 pounds.
US companies pay almost $10 billion a year to protect their property with alarm systems and human guards. Mobile robots may be cheaper.
【1】Why are robots of this kind called mobile robots?
A. Because they are able to climb stairs.
B. Because they are able to send an alarm.
C. Because they can open doors.
D. Because they can move around slowly on wheels.
【2】Where will a robot get directions for moving around a building?
A. From a human guard. B. From a built-in computer.
C. From another robot. D. From radio signals.
【3】The underlined word “barred” means “ ”.
A. protected B. allowed C. marked D. prevented
【4】According to the passage, a mobile robot will not be able to .
A. sense whether something has been moved
B. sense a cat crossing the room
