26、Engineers at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, invented the world’s smallest remote-controlled walking robot. Each one is about half a millimeter wide, which is smaller than the thickness of a coin. It took a year and a half to create the robots, said co-author John A. Rogers. The tiny robot can also turn and jump.
His team consisted of students across varying academic levels who combined critical-and creative-thinking skills to design robots that looked like crabs as well as other animals like inchworms and crickets, he said. Some students found the sideways motion of crabs to be amusing, which was the inspiration behind the crab robot.
The robots, which are made of a shape-memory metal, start out as flat objects, similar to a piece of paper. The legs and arms are bent so the robot can stand. The metal can be transformed but returns to its original shape once heat is applied to it. When heat is applied over and over rapidly, the crabs are able to move similarly to how humans bend and straighten their legs to walk. Lasers (激光) are used to apply heat to different parts of the crab robot to create movement.
The robots are still in the developmental stage and primarily created for academic purposes, but the technology used to make the tiny crabs has potential, Rogers said. Tiny crab robots could be used in performing minimally invasive (切入的) surgeries or assist in the repair of small machines, he said. In the meantime, Rogers has challenged his team to expand on the robot’s capabilities. “I asked the students to see if they could come up with a way to make these robots take flight — maybe impossible, but fun to think about.” he said.
【1】What can be learned about the new robot?
A．It is as tiny as a coin.
B．It works automatically.
C．It can change its direction.
D．It moves as quickly as a real crab.
【2】What inspired the students to develop the new robot?
A．Their academic focus on surgeries.
B．Their interest in the movement of crabs.
C．Their passion for shape-memory materials.
D．Their desire to develop laser-controlled robots.
【3】What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．How the robot works.
B．The limitations of the robot.
C．How the researchers test lasers.
D．The materials used in the research.
【4】What is a promising feature of the new robot?
A．It can repair machines by itself.
B．It can carry out tasks in tight spaces.
C．It can be used for entertainment purposes.
D．It can memorize all different kinds of shapes.
27、 "Mummy, I don' t know what to play with." Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. "You've got a room full of toys!" his mother says, impatiently. In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four-year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed (packed) animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother's desk or following her into the kitchen saying: "Mummy, I am bored."
A family therapist ( 心理医生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole "toy shop" at home: "According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about." What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will always say he/she wants it then! A talk with relatives and friends may also help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and we like her way. A small set of shelves in her child's room holds the toys and books that are the current (at present) favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys, they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room. The box of "old" toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is "bored", they also get something from her cupboard - it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn't seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the corner, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something "fresh" to play with.
【1】Steve interrupted his mother several times because _____.
A.he felt uninterested in his toys
B.he disliked his mother's guest
C.he didn't have enough toys to play with
D.he hoped his mother would play with him
【2】According to the therapist, children often complain that they have nothing to play with because _____.
A.they can't play alone for a long time
B.they are too young to play with so many toys
C.they are too lazy to pick out their favorites
D.they lack the ability to value too many things at a time
【3】Which of the following can be used in place of "jumble"?
A.Simple choice. B.Mixture in disorder.
C.Ordinary appearance. D.Same shape.
【4】Which is the advice given to parents in the text?
A.Buy fewer toys for their children.
B.Form good habits for their children.
C.Spare some time to play with their children.
D.Put some toys away without telling their children.
28、France has changed the rules in its grocery stores and marketplaces. Starting on January 1, 2022, most fresh fruits and vegetables can no longer be packaged for salern plastic.
Under the new law, more than 30 types of fruits and vegetables must now be sold in materials that can be recycled. Potatoes, tomatoes, apples and carrots are some of the items included in the list. Plastic will still be allowed for packs that are over 1.5 kilograms. Smaller items such as raspberries and cherry tomatoes can still be sold in plastic for now, but the country plans to ban (禁止) all single-use plastic packaging for whole fruits and vegetables by 2026.
This ban on plastic packaging is part of a broader effort by France to control plastic waste across a range of sectors. Other efforts include preventing restaurants from including plastic toys in children’s meals, newspapers and magazines from being delivered in plastic, and tea bags being sold in plastic packages. Furthermore, public locations must provide water refill stations to disincentivize the use of single-use water bottles.
It’s believed that 37% of fresh fruits and vegetables are wrapped in plastic in France. The government says the new ban will stop one billion pieces of plastic from being used each year.
Not everyone is happy with the change. François Roch, president of the French fruit sellers’ federation, told Reuters, “Selling loose produce is complicated (复杂的) as many customers touch the fruit and people do not want their fruit to be touched by other customers.”
The ban will likely require a change in habits Shoppers will probably have to take their own reusable bags to fill and weigh. It will be interesting to see how France deals with the complications that come with selling loose produce, and whether other countries follow suit, once a precedent (先例) has been set.
【1】What’s the purpose of the new ban?
A．To reduce plastic waste.
B．To control overspending.
C．To recycle plastic products.
D．To fight over-packaging.
【2】What does the underlined word “disincentivize” mean in paragraph 3?
A．Ignore.
B．Measure.
C．Increase.
D．Discourage.
【3】How does François Roch feel about the new law?
A．Relaxed.
B．Dissatisfied.
C．Surprised.
D．Interested.
【4】What is a probable result of the ban according to the author?
A．More attention to a healthy lifestyle.
B．A change in customers’ shopping habits.
C．Fewer tips to stores and supermarkets.
D．A drop in the sale of fruits and vegetables.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。本部分请作答于答题卷2。
On Saturday, we gathered at the hall to witness the award ceremony for the senior scouts(童子军). Receiving an award on such a day was a great honor for any scout, and all desired to be the scout selected to give the summary of the year’s activities for the association.
I was not the one selected to give the summary and for that, I was grateful. I could hardly stand in front of a large crowd to make a speech, but Sean could. He was selected to do the honor because he was the President of the Boy Scouts. My job was much simpler. Being the Vice-President, I was very much behind the scenes, content to ensure that everything was in smooth running order.
It was an hour to go before the ceremony began, and I had put the finishing touches to the stage. Walking down the stage, I saw my teammates in a state of panic(恐慌).When they saw me, they ran to me to tell me that Sean met with a traffic accident and would not make it to the award ceremony. Someone else had to give the summary. All of them looked hopefully at me, and I could feel my knees beginning to collapse.
All their arguments against my unwillingness were reasonable. I had a copy of the speech as well as the benefit of having seen Sean rehearse(排练)it. I was the Vice-President and therefore should take his place. Finally, I was firmly told not to turn it down any longer and they said that they were convinced that I would do the right thing. I sank down onto the floor, totally shocked by the situation.
I knew I was not a confident speaker, and the thought of presenting a summary in front of so many distinguished guests horrified me. To think that the fame of the scouts would take a beating because of me! The burden of responsibility troubled me greatly.
But there was really no way out of the situation. In the end, I quickly rehearsed the speech and got ready to go on stage for the presentation. I looked calm, but inside I was a trembling. Although they kept encouraging me, I still felt very worried that my poor performance would cost us the opportunity to win an award. Soon after, I was called to do the presentation. Having butterflies in my stomach, I walked onto the stage.
注意：
1.续写词数应为80到100词;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As I stood on the stage, my heart beat violently.
