27、Robots come in many shapes and sizes, but scientists in Zurich, Switzerland, have developed one new robot called Pleurobot, which looks and acts just like a salamander (火蜥蜴).
To create the robot, scientists took hundreds of X-rays of real salamanders. They studied the images of these animals to see which joints (关节) and muscles the animals use as they move. Then the scientists built the Pleurobot’s skeleton to move just like the real thing. This makes the robot’s movements incredibly lifelike.
According to experts, salamanders were among the first animals to develop a skeleton and nervous system that allowed them to travel on land. “By studying the modern salamander, we have a time window to the ancestors of all vertebrates(脊椎动物), including humans,” Auke Ijspeert, the designer of the robot, told scholastic News Online.
Both people and salamanders have a spinal cord (脊髓). An injury to the spinal cord can result in the inability to move. Now, there is no cure for paralysis (瘫痪). Ijspeert hopes that the Pleurobot can help change that. Because these studies could help researchers develop new ways to help people who have been paralyzed by spinal cord injuries.
Scientists think that the Pleurobot could also be used for search-and-rescue tasks too dangerous for humans. Because the robot is low to the ground and has a wide range of motion, it could be used to get into dangerous places, like fallen buildings, to look for survivors. Thanks to its waterproof suit, the robotic salamander could even participate in underwater missions.
Experts are now working on a smaller, sturdier (harder to break) model of the Pleurobot. They expect this one to be even better suited for getting into small spaces to do dangerous work.

28、They are the sort of friends who are so close they trust each other with their lives.If one falls, the other is there to catch him.
They are Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident and Corbett, an experienced rock climber. Together, they climbed up Half Dome. the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National park, through one of the most difficult routes(路线).
During the climb, Corbett took the lead, hit in the metal spikes (尖状物)that guided the ropes and climbed up. Then, after Wellman pulled himself up the rope, Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again. This process was repeated time and again, inch by inch, for 13 days Wellman’s job was not easy either. He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone. In all, Wellman figured(计算) that he had done 5.000 pull-ups up the rope on the climb.

29、 Golden eagle populations in the UK are set to increase as some chicks are reintroduced to the north of England. Ten birds will be released (释放) from south of Edinburgh in summer 2018, with the hope of bringing the species back from disappearing in England. More eagles will be released in the summertime of the next five years.
The project received £ 1.3 million of lottery funding in March and has now been awarded a further £ 150,000 to employ workers to run the operation. Project manager Cat Barlow said: “This is a really exciting time as the project is now starting to happen and we will soon start to see its benefits. Work will start next summer, when we will collect a number of golden eagle chicks in the Highlands and bring them south to be reared and released from an already selected place.”
The birds will be released with satellite tracking tags that will allow the scientists to gather information about their behavior and find if they suddenly go offline.
Recently, golden eagles have died out in England as the last known individual is believed to have died. Due to the popularity of shooting birds of prey (食肉猛禽), those birds in the wild struggle to survive. Main causes of death are systematic poisoning, shooting and nest disturbance by gamekeepers.
It is hoped that the newly released birds will move further south in search of new living areas and food supplies. The project expects to see the number of wild birds in Scotland and England increase as the range of the animals develops. While the birds were gone in England, in the Highlands of Scotland the number of golden eagles rocketed with up to 500 breeding pairs, the chicks will be sourced from here. It is hoped that golden eagles may finally return to the north of England, and if all goes well, numbers should grow steadily.
【1】Why will some golden eagles be set free from south of Edinburgh?
A.To keep the balance of nature. B.To encourage more birds to live in the wild.
C.To bring back the number of other species. D.To prevent eagles from dying out.
【2】Which word can replace the underlined word “reared” in Paragraph 2?
A.Sold. B.Stored.
C.Raised. D.Exhibited.
【3】What does Paragraph 4 focus on?
A.Reasons for golden eagles’ dying out.
B.Why animal hunting should be forbidden.
C.Harmful effects of shooting birds.
D.The difficult situation golden eagles face.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the golden eagle project?

Mr. Selfridge, the Wisconsin-born retailer who left school at 14, rose to become a partner in Marshall Field's, Chicago. 【1】 in 1852, it was one of the first and most ambitious US department stores. Mr. Selfridge had done well with Marshall Field's. He liked to say, 'The customer is always right, ' which made the Chicago store popular. And he is believed to have 【2】 the phrase 'Only Shopping Days until Christmas'.
When he visited London on holiday in 1906, he was surprised to find most of the city's department stores were no 【3】 for their American and Parisian competitors. This led Selfridge to leave the US and establish Selfridges - a department store named after him at the west end of London's Oxford Street. In Oxford Street, Selfridge's design team 【4】 an ambitious classical palace building with a wall of plate glass windows.
Opened in 1909, Selfridges 【5】 customers a hundred departments along with restaurants, a roof garden, reading and writing rooms, reception areas for foreign visitors, a first 【6】 room and most importantly, a small army of knowledgeable floor-walking assistants who served as guides as well as being【7】 instructed in the art of making a sale.
Mr. Selfridge did much to make the department store a destination rather than just a big and 【8】 stocked city shop. It became a place to meet and for ladies to lunch. Mr. Selfridge later introduced the department store as a key 【9】 of the 20th century culture, and Chaplin 【10】 the growing trend for shopping in the -department store in his film The Floorwalker.
