27、For many students, maths and science have always been boring subjects, too bogged down(陷入困境)with technical details to ever be fun or exciting. Teachers have long tried a variety of strategies to get students excited about STEM, which stands for science, technology, engineering and maths. 【1】
The use of robotics is on the rise in today’s world, and allowing students to play with robots and learn how they work can have huge benefits for them. Not only does it give them a head start in subjects like computer programming, maths and science, it can also develop an interest in careers students may have never considered before.
Robots Teach More Than Tech Skills
Robots are most often associated with technology and other STEM-related fields. However, playing with robots has educational benefits beyond simply learning to build and program the robots themselves. Robots can be used to develop problem-solving skills, get students working cooperatively and more.
One of the most popular uses for robots is in problem-based learning. In this learning model, students are presented with a problem they must solve. 【2】 This inspires creativity, critical thinking and cooperation which are important 21s-century skills.
Robots Help Students with Disabilities
Robots aren’t just for students who need a challenge. 【3】 Students with autism(自闭症), in particular, can react quickly to robots.
Students with autism who may shy away from interaction with a human being are more likely to open up to a robot, and the risk of failure or embarrassment in front of the robot is much lower. 【4】 Research into this possibility has already begun.
Robots are only going to become a bigger part of everyday life in the future. Using robots in the classroom is a proven way to get kids excited and increase learning.
A.It turns out, one of the best ways to get kids interested in STEM is through the use of robots.
B.STEM is an education curriculum that focuses heavily on the subjects of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
C.Instead of following a teacher’s directions, students work out their own solutions to the problem.
D.Here’s how applying modern technology can benefit students in PE class and enhance cross-curricular engagement.
E.Robots can provide a way for students with autism to practice social skills without the pressure of interacting with a real person.
F.Playing with robots can have additional benefits for students with disabilities.
28、A boy playing in the woods noticed a cocoon(茧). While watching it, he suddenly found a small opening appeared, and that a butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. So the boy decided to help the butterfly.
He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. Much to his surprise, the butterfly got a swollen(鼓胀的)body but very small, weak wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The boy expected that the butterfly's body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would enlarge and be able to support the body. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬)around with a swollen body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The boy was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. The struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was the way of forcing fluid(流体)from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been. And we could never fly.
【1】What did the boy see the butterfly doing in the first paragraph?
A.It was flying difficultly in the woods.
B.It was trying to get out of the cocoon.
C.It was looking for food in a cocoon.
D.It was busy making a cocoon for itself.
【2】What would have happened to the butterfly without the boy's help?
A.The butterfly would come out easily.
B.The butterfly could crawl on its wings.
C.The butterfly would prepare for the flight.
D.The butterfly would never gain its freedom.
【3】What is the best title for the story?
A.The struggle for freedom.
B.A kind-hearted boy.
C.The joy of helping a butterfly.
D.A lucky butterfly.
29、One day when I was 15 years old, I was making food in the kitchen. My brother came in. He placed his beef next to my thick one and said, “Courtney, your beef is bigger than mine. You don’t need to eat; you’re already obese(极为肥胖的 ).” Then he walked out laughing. From then on, I was unwilling to wear shorts until I was 30 years old. For the next 15 years, I spent summer after summer roasting in long pants.
But then I met Ragen Chastain. I couldn’t believe that this woman who, like myself, weighed almost 300 pounds, was so energetic and happy in her own skin. I listened as she shared her own journey to recovery and self-love. She talked about how amazing our bodies are, simply because of the things they do every day— like breathing, pumping blood to every cell and walking.
Walking! I was suddenly aware of how foolish I’d been for so long. There’re people who are born without legs, or who lack properly working legs, or who lose their legs, and I’d been hiding my perfectly strong, healthy, beautiful legs in shame. The next day. I bought three pairs of shorts and a sundress and spent the entire summer letting my legs see the sun and feel the breeze.
The next time anyone comment? on your body in a negative (消极的)way, look them straight in the eye, smile and say. “If what you see bothers you so much, feel free to practice the ancient art of looking somewhere else.” That’s Ragen’s own creation, but I don’t think she’ll mind if you use it.
【1】What can we know about the author when she was a teenager?
A.She didn’t like to eat beef.

A.Kind and confident.
B.Warm-hearted and careful.
C.Ambitious and honest.
D.Capable and independent.
【3】Why did the author buy three pairs of shorts?
A.The shorts were on sale.
B.Shorts were suitable for the weather.
C.She was inspired by Ragen Chastain.
D.She liked Ragen Chastain.
【4】What does the author want to tell us?
A.Love ourselves and don’t care others’ negative opinion.
B.There are many people who are as fat as us in the world.
C.Dress whatever we want and ignore other’s judgement.
D.Eat as much as possible and don’t care about our bodies.

32、阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
An Unforgivable Mistake
A few years ago, the company I work for sent my wife and me to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved jogging, so I was really happy when I found out the apartment they had rented for us was next to Central Park. This meant that every morning I could go for a run before I went to work.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of muggers in the park, I didn’t usually take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything? But this one morning my wife asked me to buy some bread on the way home, so I put a $ 10 bill in my back pocket.
It was a beautiful morning and the park was quiet with very few people walking or jogging around. While I was running, another jogger bumped into me. He apologized and continued running. For a while, I didn’t think too much of it. However, when I noticed the wide path where I was running, I thought it was kind of strange. The warning of muggers in the park occurred to me. "It could have been a mugger!” I suddenly became alarmed, so I checked my pocket. The money was missing! I immediately started to run after the other jogger. I finally caught up and grabbed him firmly by the arm. I started shouting and demanding that he gave me the$10 bill. I’m not usually a hot-headed person, but I really lost my temper at that moment. I couldn’t believe the robbery was actually happening to me. Filled with anger, I shook my fist at him. This seemed to frighten him. He quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I couldn’t wait to tell my wife the story. “You won’t believe what happened to me,” I started with pride. She immediately interrupted(插话).” I know, you left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.
