24、There are robots all around us. Some do difficult jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. Some just do one simple job, like washing clothes. They do these by “feedback” (反馈).
We human beings receive feedback through our eyes, ears and other senses (感官), which tell us what is going on around. Robots are kind of like human beings in two ways: they work and they have feedback. Information about what is happening is “fed back” into the robot to tell it what to do next.
There are robots taking care of the temperature of our houses, cookers, and hot water systems. We set the controls to the temperature we want and leave the rest to the robot. Its feedback usually comes from a thermostat (温控器). One kind of thermostat is a metal strip (金属条板), which bends (弯曲) when it gets hot. At the right temperature, it bends just enough to turn off the heat. As the air around it cools, the strip becomes straight, which turns the heat on again.
Some robots are created to work in factories. They are taught to do different jobs. First, their “brains” are shown how the job needs to be done. A person moves the “arms” and “hands” of the robot through each part of the job as the robot’s brain records each move. After that, the robot is set to work on its own. If something gets in the way, the robot will stop until a human engineer comes to solve the problem. When it is needed for a new job, its memory is deleted. Then it will be taught how to do the new work.
The most clever robots can move and see. Their eyes are cameras. Their fingers can feel shapes and even find out how hot and cold objects are. These robots have computer brains, connected to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions.
There are robots all around, making our lives easier. In some ways, they are better than human beings. They work quickly, hardly making any mistakes. They do the same jobs over and over again, never getting bored or tired.
【1】According to the passage, which of the statements is NOT true?
A.Robots mainly work by receiving feedback.
B.Not only can robots do easy jobs, but they can do hard ones.
C.Some robots can set the temperature right through a thermostat.
D.Robots working in factories are controlled by the metal strip.
【2】In this passage, the writer tells us that ________.
A.robots should be greatly improved
B.robots are very helpful and useful to humans
C.robots will probably take over in the future
D.we see robots only at certain times
【3】We can infer from paragraph 4 that ________.
A.the robots are not able to think on their own
B.the robots are controlled by engineers all the time
C.when the robots are given a new job, their memory will be cleaned off
D.most robots can do several jobs at a time
【4】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?
(①=Para. 1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para. 5 ⑥=Para. 6)
A.①; ②; ③④⑤⑥
B.①②; ③④; ⑤⑥
C.①②; ③④⑤; ⑥
D.①②; ③; ④⑤⑥
25、 You Are What You Eat
Genetic (基因的) engineering is the scientific change of the genetic material in a living thing. It allows scientists to identify specific genes, to remove them from a living thing’s chromosomes(染色体), improve them, analyze them, and possibly clone them, and to then reinsert the changed gene into the original living thing, or a completely different living things. Unlike traditional breeding (繁殖), where a desired quality would be bred within the same kind of living things, genetic engineering can insert desired ones into living things of different kinds. Wow ... did you catch that?
Genetic engineering creates many positive contributions to agriculture. For example, by genetically engineered (GE) foods, anti-cancer agents, minerals and vitamins can be increased. Improved taste, shelf life, and better transport are all possible. Also, GE plants can increase pest and bacterial resistance(抵抗力), therefore, making the food safe for the consumers.
But some argue that the possible negative effects outweigh the positives, and critics are starting to voice their worries. Unlike Europe, in the United States labeling(贴标签)is not required on genetically engineered foods or on foods that contain genetically engineered products. Most Americans do not realize that they are, in fact, eating GE foods.
The public is also concerned about the unknown health risks. With limited understanding of genes, scientists cannot predict possible effects. Because most genes introduced into GE plants come from sources not introduced into the human body, it is impossible to know if they will cause reactions. Moreover, due to the lack of labeling, if allergies(过敏)develop, it will be extremely difficult to find the origin of them.
There is also a major moral question in many minds. For many, the conflict is not if it is safe or not, but it disturbs them because it is unnatural and unnecessary. We are currently producing one and a half times the amount of food needed to feed the world, yet one in seven people are starving. So GE food is unnecessary, and fails to address the root of hunger. Many believe that the only people who will benefit are the corporations that produce it.
Scientists cannot foresee the possible effects of GE foods, yet we eat them every day without even knowing it. We already have enough food, so why create more that could be potentially harmful to us, to the Earth and to all wildlife? I think that the benefits are amazing, but until we know for sure how these foods will affect us, they are not worth the risk.
【1】According to the passage, traditional breeding is different from genetic engineering because________.
A.traditional breeding changes the genes in the same kind of living things
B.traditional breeding takes place within the same kind of living things
C.traditional breeding is more scientific
D.traditional breeding changes the genes in different kinds of living things
【2】According to Paragraph 5, GE food is unnecessary because ________.
A.customers will benefit from GE food
B.we’re now producing more food than before
C.it won’t help solve the problem of hunger in the world
D.there are obvious dangers in producing GE food
【3】What is the writer’s writing purpose?
A.To introduce genetic engineering’s positive contributions to agriculture.
B.To welcome genetic engineering and GE food.
C.To discuss the differences between GE food and other food.
D.To tell people to keep GE food off before their influence on us is clear.
26、 A jobless man applied(申请)for the position of “office boy” at Microsoft, The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.
“You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the application form to fill in, as well as the date when you may start.”

27、The first night that I went to Gatsby’s house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited. A servant came to my house one day with an invitation from his Mr. Gatsby. However, most of the people at his parties were not invited—they just went there. Sometimes they came to the party and left without ever having met Gatsby.
I went over to Gatsby’s house at about seven o’clock. I felt nervous among all these people I didn’t know, so I walked around looking for Gatsby. I asked many guests where he was, but they all stared at me in such a surprised way that I decided to go and sit at the bar. I sat at a table where a man was sitting. The man at the table looked at me and smiled.
“I think I have seen you before,” he said politely. “Were you in the army during the war? Were you in the First Division?”
“Why, yes I was.” I was surprised.
The man and I talked for a while about some of the places we had been in the war. I learned that he lived in this neighborhood too, because he told me that he had just bought an airplane and planned to try it in the morning.
“Do you want to fly with me tomorrow, young fellow?” he asked.
I wanted to go and accepted. I was about to ask his name when he said to me, “Having you had a good time now?”
I smiled to my new friend, “This party is strange for me. I don’t even know the host. I haven’t met him yet. I live over there—I turned around and pointed my hand toward my house—and this man, Gatsby, sent over his servant with an invitation.”
For a moment, the man I was talking to looked at me as if he didn’t understand. “I’m Gatsby,” he said suddenly.
“What!” I cried. “Oh, I didn’t—I’m so sorry.”
“I thought you knew, young fellow. I’m sorry—I suppose I’m not a very good host.”
He smiled at me. His smile had a quality of comfort in it. It was a smile that you may only see four or five times in life. His smile seemed to say that the whole world was good and that you were also good. His smile understood you and it believed you.
His smile disappeared, and I looked at Mr. Gatsby for the first time. He was a handsome young man, about thirty years old and dressed very well. He spoke very politely and it was a little funny to me; most men his age were not so polite. He spoke as if he was carefully choosing his words.
