24、When I was in college, I remember hearing about a book titled “Looking Out for Number One”. I never read the book, but the title has always stuck with me. I think it was because the title turned me off. I hadn’t been taught to be so selfish that I should be focused on only me . I thought I needed to be helping others and, along the way, I would also be helping myself. Now, I realize I should have at least considered learning more about looking out for number one.
Over 30 years after seeing the book about looking out for number one I’m realizing number one, me, is the person I should be concerned about first. Jeffrey Gitomer asks the question, “Who is the most important person in the world?” Most people answer, the customer. He then asks, if there were only two people left in the world, the customer and you, who would you want to survive ? Now the answer is me.
It makes me sense that if we can’t help ourselves first, we will never be prepared to help others. We all need to learn to control our lives and make the best decisions for ourselves. That will put us in a position to help others in the future . But many of us are slow to understand this.
It has been said that happiness will bring success, but success doesn’t always bring happiness. We all want to be happy and successful. For some of us can be very happy when our basic needs are met and our family are safe. Others will seek high levels of success thinking that will bring happiness. I’m sure we can think of a person who is very successful, according to the world’s standards (标准), but they don’t appear to be happy at all. This is because they have been so busy working for somebody else’s goals that they haven’t considered their own needs.
【1】Who does the writer think is the most important person in the world now?
A. Others B. Himself
C. The customer D. Jeffrey Gitomer
【2】The underlined words“ turned me off” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.
A. made me excited B. made me bored
C. made me surprised D. made me pleased
【3】From the third paragraph we can learn ________.
A. we should help others instead of ourselves
B. we need help others make the best decisions
C. helping others can help control our lives
D. actually few of us understand this idea earlier
【4】 Why do some successful people not feel happy at all?
A. Because they don’t believe success always brings happiness.
B. Because their basic needs are not completely met.
C .Because they seek for too high levels of success.
D. Because they haven’t been working for their own goals.
【5】 The best title for the passage is “______________”.
A. Considering Our Own Needs First
B. The Most Important in the World
C. Helping Others First
D. Happiness and Success
25、 The Life of Jane Goodall
On the morning of July 14, 1960, Jane Goodall arrived at Lake Tanganyika in the Gombe National Park. Then around 5 p. m, Jane went into the forest to find her first chimpanzee.
As a young woman, Jane Goodall was following her childhood dream of studying chimpanzees in Africa. After many months of difficult work she made three important discoveries: chimpanzees ate meat, they used tools to get food, and they also made tools.
Every evening, Jane wrote her findings in her journal. She began to publish articles in magazines. After a while, Jane was accepted by a university. Her work was also making her famous. There was a documentary (纪录片)film,Miss Goodall and the Wild Chimpanzees (1963), and then My Friends the Wild Chimpanzees (1969), the first of many books. During the 1970s, Gombe became a dangerous place to work. It is on the border of four different countries and there was fighting among them. Many foreigners left, but Jane stayed to continue her workand noted that chimpanzees could also be violent.
A different problem developed in Gombe in the 1980s. The forests were getting smaller and there was no enough space for chimpanzees because of the increasing human population.As a result, there were only about a hundred chimpanzees living in Gombe by t the end of the1980s. Jane realized something had to be done, so she made a plan with the local community to grow more trees.
At the beginning of the 1990s, Jane left Gombe. She set up sanctuaries (庇护所)for chimpanzees which had been caught because of the trade in chimpanzee meat. She also started giving speeches. She has very little spare time but still spends part of every year in the forest in Gombe, watching her chimpanzees.
【1】What was Jane's childhood dream?
A.To explore forests in Africa.
B.To make a documentary film.
C.To write books about animals.
D.To study chimpanzees in Africa.
【2】What did Jane do in the 1970s?
A.She continued to work in Gombe.
B.She went to study in a university.
C.She found her first chimpanzee.
D.She published her first book.
【3】What plan did Jane make to help chimpanzees in1980s?
A.To grow more trees B.To do more studies
C.To stop the fighting. D.To set up sanctuaries
26、Robotic Pets
I am going to predict how people are going to be with future technology in their life. I think robotic pets are going to be increasingly popular as the technology develops. At least I am going to build what I think is a strong case for this prediction.
From a neurological point of view, I do not see anything in the way to people bonding (纽带) fully with robotic pets. The human brain can attach (赋予) emotions to things and respond to emotional signaling. Being alive is simply not required. From how objects move, our brains infer that they are able to act with their own will and purpose. If they move in a way that cannot be explained simply as passive (被动的) movement, then they must be moving on their own. Therefore, they can connect to the emotional centers in our brains. We either fear them, or love them, or hunger for them, or whatever. We can respond emotionally with cartoon creatures, with animals, and yes, even with robots. Our brains treat things that act alive as if they are alive—no different.
One of the opposite points that people often bring up is that they love the way their pets behave, not just look. This gets to AI, which has been developing at a fast pace. We have AI that can beat world masters in chess and go. I have no doubt we can build AI to mimic (模仿) the behavior of dogs and cats, if not now then probably within a generation.
So we will have no problem fully emotionally bonding with a robotic pet. But this doesn't mean we would prefer such a pet. One argument against robotic pets is that they will be expensive compared to a live pet—but this is likely not to be true forever. Living pets need to be fed, and they need at least basic medical care, and they may need to be boarded at times. Also, people spend hundreds of dollars on pets, __________or thousands of dollars on purebred species. Robotic pets will finally cost less in total than biological ones.
But let's get to the real reason people will prefer robotic pets at last. The possibilities for building in useful technology are endless. An advanced robotic pet could also serve as a defensive and alarm system. You could recharge your cell phone off their batteries. They could be a walking cell phone. They would be excellent companions for the elder, affording them more independence for longer. This in itself would be a huge cost saving—anything that keeps people out of a nursing home is cost effective.
Imagination is really the only limitation, once you have the basics of a working robot. When the technology crosses a certain limit, this will be a thing. Future generations may consider keeping a living animal in your home as primitive (原始的) and cruel. They may have a point.
【1】Why can we bond fully with robotic pets?
A.They can respond to our reactions.
B.They can move actively and freely.
C.Our brains can treat things differently.
D.Our brains can attach emotions to them.
【2】According to the passage, we know that .
A.robotic pets will be cost effective in the future
B.present AI can mimic all the behaviors of live pets
C.the elder prefer to have robotic pets as companions
D.the young think it primitive and cruel to keep live pets
【3】The writer probably agrees that .
A.live pets will serve us better
B.it is easier to keep live pets at home
C.technology ensures robotic pets a bright future
D.imagination limits the development of robotic pets
27、Experts know that a disaster is coming but they do not know when it will happen. They do know that it could cause a lot of damage. They think it will be worse than a hurricane. The disaster they are worried about is an earthquake.
There is a break in the earth’s crust (外壳). It is called the San Andreas Fault. The San Andreas Fault is in California. Many earthquakes happen along the San Andreas Fault. In 1989 there was a big earthquake on the fault. The earthquake was called the “Loma Prieta Earthquake”. Many people were hurt or died. Many buildings were ruined. Lots of people lost their homes. Roads and bridges were also damaged.
A large earthquake could happen in Southern California. Many small earthquakes have happened in the last year. Earthquake experts think that a large earthquake will happen there soon. They think a big earthquake will happen in the next few years.
The San Andreas Fault has many power lines stretched across it. There are water channels close to the earthquake fault. A large earthquake in Southern California would destroy energy and water supplies (供应). Lots of people would be without power or water for weeks. Buildings that have not been built strong enough would be destroyed. Not all hospitals would be able to help people who were injured. Many people would die or be homeless.
People need to be prepared. They need to know what to do if an earthquake happens. Everyone in California should have a survival kit at home. The emergency kit (应急箱) would include food and water. There should be medication and first aid supplies in the kit. A good survival kit will also have a portable radio, flashlights and spare batteries. All of the supplies in the kit should last at least 3 days.
【1】We can probably find this passage in .
A. a science book
B. a sports newspaper
C. a travelling magazine
D. a detective storybook
【2】Which of the following isn’t mentioned as a result of the “Loma Prieta Earthquake”?
A. Many buildings were ruined.
B. Roads and bridges were damaged.
C. Many people were hurt or died.
D. Lots of animals lost their living areas.
【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. All of the supplies in the emergency kit will last at most 3 days.
B. A large earthquake in Southern California would destroy food supplies.
C. A break in the earth’s crust in California is called the San Andreas Fault.
D. Lots of people would be without power or water for days after the earthquake.
【4】The purpose of this passage is to tell people that .
A. there will be a terrible earthquake in weeks
B. the earthquake may cause such serious results
C. the coming earthquake will destroy a lot of supplies
D. the earthquake is so terrible that we need to be prepared
