25、 Scientists at the University of Michigan have built a robot called MABEL. MABEL is able to run at a speed of 6.8 mph. This is a world record for a machine with two legs.
It took the researchers three years to get MABEL up and run to her top speed. There are still some problems, but she is thought of a huge step forward for robotkind.
The makers of the robot say that science and technology can help people. Jonathan Hurst is a scientist from Oregon State University. He says scientists have done research into what MABEL can do in the future. They think that walking robots can help people who have something wrong with their legs walk again, or help people do things like a superman.
Professor Jessy Crizzle from the University of Michigan, also points that how useful human-like robots can be. "If you would like to send robots to search for people when a house is on fire, they can go up and down the stairs, step over the baby's toys on the floor and go in places where wheels and tracks can not go."

26、As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year, you think about the last year. You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make, but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.
Here’s a suggestion: Forget the too big, hard to achieve goals and just think about the small ones. “We often think that we have to do everything in big steps, even though it’s so hard for us to reach it, said Robert Maurer, who recently wrote the book One Small Step Can Change Your Life. “What we try to do is to begin with such a small step that we can’t find any excuse not to do it.”
“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes. During World WarⅡ, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “Kaizen”, which means “improvement”.
Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.
【1】Robert Maurer wrote a book to tell us ______.
A. we should do everything in big steps

【3】The writer of the passage suggests we should ______.
A. make changes at the end of the year
B. do few experiments with “Kaizen”
C. do things with hard to achieve goals
D. take a tiny step to achieve big goals
【4】Which of the following is TRUE from the passage?

“Find a job you love,and you’ll never work a day in your life.”Do you agree with this old saying?Joanne Gordon does.She is the author of Be Happy at Work and other books about careers(职业).Gordon believes that about 30% of employees(雇员)in North America do not like their jobs,and she thinks that is terrible.She wants to help people who do not feel satisfied(满意)with their jobs find work that is good for them.Joanne says,“There are no happy jobs,only happy workers.”She believes that happy workers share three main characteristics(特点).
First,happy workers enjoy the daily activities of their jobs,and they look forward to the workday.Take Tony Hawk,for example.At age 14,he became a professional skateboarder.Now he is a businessman working on projects related to skateboarding—films and video games,but he still skates every day.He once said.“My youngest son’s preschool class was recently asked what their dads do for work.My son said,‘I’ve never seen my dad do work.’”Tony agrees that his job doesn’t look like work.He has found a way to spend each day doing a job he enjoys.
Second,happy workers like the people they work with.Sally Ayote says,“I work with the coolest people in the world.”She and her group cook for almost 1,200 people in Antarctica.Most of these people are scientists who are doing research.Sally loves to sit and talk with them.She says,“There is no television here,no radio,so I get to know the scientists and what they’re studying.”Sally thinks she has a great job,and the best part about it is the people.
Third,happy workers know that their work helps others.Caroline Baron’s work helps people who have had to leave their home countries because of war or other dangers.She is a filmmaker who started an organization called FilmAid,which shows movies in refugee(难民)camps around the world.Caroline believes that movies can be very helpful in these camps.For one thing,entertaining movies let refugees forget their troubles for a little while.Movies can also teach important subjects like health and safety.For example,in one camp,thousands of refugees saw a movie about how to get clean water.Caroline knows that she is helping other people,and this makes her feel proud and happy about her work.
Tony Hawk,Sally Ayote,and Caroline Baron all get great satisfaction from their work.Tony Hawk says,“Find the thing you love.If you are doing what you love,there is much more happiness there than being rich or famous.”Joanne Gordon would agree.She encourages people to find something they enjoy doing,find people they like to work with,and find ways to help others.Then they can be proud of what they do,and they will probably be happy at work.

【2】Joanne Gordon believes that________.
A.difficult jobs are terrible
B.there are no happy jobs,only happy workers
C.rich and famous people have much more happiness than workers
D.only about one third of the employees in North America like their jobs
【3】Why did Tony Hawk’s son say,“I’ve never seen my dad do work.”?
A.Because Tony Hawk’s job doesn’t look like work.
B.Because the best part about his job is to spend each day skating.
C.Because Tony helps people forget their troubles while skating.
D.Because Tony Hawk always finds something else he enjoys doing.
【4】Tony Hawk,Sally Ayote,and Caroline Baron are good examples that show us________.
