1、阅读下面的短文,将划线部分译成英文或者中文。
Robot scientists say that one-year-old human babies have better movement (动作) skills than robots do. Let’s take a look at some tasks that are easy for kids. 1.但是他们对机器人来说不容易。
Picking things up is not easy. 2.If we drop our pencil on the floor, our brains work hard. First, we must find the pencil and look at its distance (距离). Then we move our hands to it. 3.A robot cannot always move its “hand” to the right place. Calculating the distance is not easy. Then, when we touch the pencil, it might roll (滚动) a little bit. Robots cannot easily understand this either. So, if you drop a pencil on the floor, a robot will probably roll it around the room.
If someone drops you in a new building, you might feel a little lost. 4.But you can look around, find a door and get out quickly. You will not get stuck (困住的) in a corner. But a robot will look everywhere for a door, even on floors. This is because it’s hard for them to understand spaces, such as walls. Scientists need to train them with lots of data to learn this.
“Common sense (常识)” is what we don’t need to think or talk about. Because of it, we do not look for doors on the ceiling. We feel whether it has coffee inside, and whether it is hot. A robot may turn the cup upside down. 5.它可能会握住杯子烫的部分。 Scientists tried to teach robots common-sense rules. Maybe they just need more time to learn.

25、Every living thing needs to reproduce. It means creating more members of its group. In order to reproduce, plants have to spread their seeds(种子)to other areas. They have developed all kinds of ways to do it.
The simplest way is gravity. Many seeds are inside the fruit. When a piece of fruit gets too heavy, it falls from a tree to the ground. Sometimes animals will pick up the fruit and drop it in another area. That helps move the seed even farther away.
Some plants use wind to spread their seeds. Dandelions(蒲公英)are a good example of this. Dandelion seeds are so light that when wind blows, it carries them to new places. Maple(枫树)seeds also use wind. Their seeds are connected with long, thin leaves that look like wings. When the seed falls from the tree, its “wings” help it fly farther from the tree.
Other animals help plants spread their seeds. The animals eat the seeds. While the seeds are in the animals’ bodies, they stay whole. When they leave the animals, they are in new places.
Besides, ants have another way to help spread seeds. Some seeds have a special smell that attracts ants. The ants bring the seeds back to their home, which of course is underground. They only eat part of the seeds and leave the rest of the seeds underground. After that, the seeds can start growing.
【1】The word “reproduce” in the first paragraph means “________”.
A.重现
B.繁殖
C.改良
D.生长
【2】________ help(s) maples spread their seeds.
A.Ants
B.Animals
C.Birds
D.Wind
【3】The ants do the following things to help spread seeds EXCEPT ________.
A.they only eat part of the seeds
B.they help seeds fall down from the tree
C.they carry seeds to the underground home
D.they leave the rest of the seed underground
【4】The passage is about ________.
A.nature
B.culture
C.education
D.technology
【5】Which is the best title of the passage?
A.How Wind Helps Seeds Spread?
B.Why Animals Pick Up Seeds?
C.How Plants Spread Seeds?
D.Why Seeds Have a Special Trip?
26、Spring Festival, Chun Jie is the first day of the Chinese lunar calendar. When Chun Jie is coming, people are busy buying goods, cleaning the house, cooking traditional food, making Spring Festival couplets, and hanging spring festival pictures. Dumplings are essential to the dinner. Dumplings means reunion and goodwill. The whole family gather to enjoy quality family time. On Chun Jie, Lunar New Year’s Day, people in new clothes visit each other, and give money to kids to send good wishes. During Chun Jie holidays all kinds of celebrations are held, including temple fairs, performances, a lantern show which lasts nearly half a month.
The Qing Ming Festival is a day of reverence for Chinese. People hold ceremonies for ancestors, and sweep their tombs (墓) on April 5th every year. According to tradition, during the Tomb Sweeping, people put food in front of the tombs, add new soil on the tomb. Now it is a public holiday in China. Although ceremonies have changed a little with time. Chinese still express their sadness for the dead.
In ancient times, there was a great poet called Qu Yuan. He couldn’t stand the pain when his motherland was invaded, so he drowned himself in the river. Local people drop the rice balls into the river to take away fishes’ attention from Qu’s body. Later people memorialized Qu’s patriotism by rowing and making Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival, Duanwujie. That’s how the tradition of dragon boat racing and eating Zongzi started.
The Qixi Festival, also known as the Chinese Valentine’s Day, falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month on the Chinese calendar. It says that a fairy named Zhi Nv, who lived in heaven, fell in love with a cow herder named Niu Lang during her trip to earth. Zhi Nv decided to settle down on earth and lead an ordinary life with Niu Lang.
Just like an ancient Chinese poem says, the moon was rising from the sea and all the people were sharing this moment ...
