And this will certainly destroy our harmonious society. ‎ ‎ In a word, human beings should not develop an emotional relationship with robots. ‎ 一 重点句式回顾 ‎1.

In my opinion, it is good to build the high-speed rail because high-speed rail meets the demand for high-efficiency and low-emission transport.‎ 课外作业 下面表格是太阳能汽车与普通汽车的相关信息：‎ 太阳能汽车 普通汽车 特点 使用太阳能 使用汽油、燃气 优点 安全、清洁 污染环境 缺点 能量小、速度慢，夜间不能行驶 能量足，使用方便 你的建议 ‎……‎ 假定你是李华，你们班下周将举行以“现代科技”为主题的讨论课，请你英文写一篇短文，对比介绍太阳能汽车和普通汽车，并在讨论课上发言。‎ 注意：1. 词数100左右；‎ ‎2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；‎ ‎3. 开头已为你写好，不计入总词数。‎ My dear fellow students,‎ ‎ With the rapid development of science and technology, scientists are working on the invention of solar cars and now I would like to tell you something about it.‎ My dear fellow students,‎ ‎ With the rapid development of science and technology, scientists are working on the invention of solar cars and now I would like to tell you something about it.‎ ‎ Solar cars are cars that use sunlight for power while common cars use gas or petrol as their fuel.

The Special Olympic World Summer Games are held every four years. The athletes, representing the millions of people who take part in Special O1ympics activities in cities and towns all over the world, take part in a wide variety of sports, including running, basketball, swimming and bowling. All of the athletes who compete in the Special Olympics are mentally slow. Some have physical disabilities too.‎ ‎ The idea for the competition began more than 30 years ago. Eunice Kennedy Shriver held sporting events on her farm in the state of Maryland for 100 mentally retarded children and adults. She had young men and women work with them to find out what they could do.‎ ‎ Mrs. Shriver found out that the lives of people with slow intelligence development improved when they took part in such activities. Later scientific research has shown that people who take part in the Special Olympics are happier. It also shows they feel better about themselves and are better able to deal with other people.‎ ‎ The first Special Olympics was held in 1968. Since then this competition has spread all over the world. It costs the individual athlete nothing to take part in the games. The Special Olympics is supported by the public and by private businesses. One of the goals of the Special Olympics is to let other people see that the special athletes have many abilities. Mrs. Shriver says the games also show the mentally retarded that they can do things. All the Special Olympics athletes want to win their competitions. But, Mrs. Shriver says, that is not what is important. All of the athletes are winners...just by taking part. The Special Olympics has a saying: "Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt."‎ ‎21.

Third, Hannibal, MO 63641‎ ‎ (573) 221-2477·Fax: (573) 221 -6999‎ ‎ www. VisitHannibal. com ‎ Hannibal, Missouri, founded in 1819, is known worldwide as the boyhood home of Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain), 1835-1910. The Clemens family moved to Hannibal in 1839from nearby Florida, Missouri when Sam was four years old. He spent his formative years here, leaving such a lasting impression that his childhood memories provided the basis for much of his writing. In later life during an interview in India he was quoted as saying “ All that goes to make the me in me is a small Missouri village on the other side of the globe”.‎ ‎ Besides Mark Twain, notable Hannibal residents that may interest tourists include:l Margaret Tobin Brown, known as “Unsinkable Molly Brown” after he survived the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, was born in Hannibal in 1867.‎ l William P. Lear, inventor of the automobile radio, the automatic pilot for airplanes and the Lear Jet, was born here in 1902.‎ l Cliff Edwards, actor and musician, was born here. He was known in Hollywood as “Ukelele Ike”, provided the voice for “Jiminy Cricket” in Pinocchio and appeared in many films.‎ l Admiral Robert E. Coontz, a Hannibal native, became Commander of the United States Fleet in 1923.‎ l Jake Beckley, known as “Old Eagle Eye”, played baseball for three major league teams. He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971.‎ l Helen Cornelius, country and western singer, is a Hannibal native.‎ l William Henry Hatch, Hannibal attorney who, while as a congressman, played an important role in securing the passage of agricultural legislation that established the position of Secretary of Agriculture in the Cabinet of the President of the United States.25. Hannibal, Missouri is known worldwide ________.‎ ‎ A. because the Clemens family used to live there ‎ B. as the birthplace of Mark Twain ‎ C. because Mark Twain spent his boyhood years there.‎ ‎ D. for a number of notable people who once lived there.‎ ‎26.

Jake Beckley made contributions to the American navy ‎ D. William Henry Hatch worked as a politician C ‎ Jim suffered heart problems. In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.‎ ‎ When his heart problems led to operation, Jim went through it successfully, and a full recovery was expected. Within days, however, his heart was not beating properly. Jim was rushed back to operation, but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness. He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.‎ ‎ Dr. Bruce Smoller, a psychologist (心理学家), had had many conversations with him, and the more he learned, the stranger he realized Jim’s case was. When Jim was a child, his father, a teacher, suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover. One morning Jim asked his father tolook over his homework, promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up. His father agreed, but when Jim returned his father had died. Jim’s father was 48.‎ ‎ “I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father,” Dr. Smoller says. “He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework, his father would have lived. Jim had been troubled by the idea. The operation was the trial (判决) he had expected for forty years. “Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.‎ ‎ Jim’s case shows the powerful role that attitude plays in physical health, and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups. Although most cases are less direct than Jim’s, studies show that childhood events, besides genes, may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer, heart disease and mental illness.‎ ‎28. Jim was sent back to operation because ________.‎ ‎ A. his heart didn’t work well B. he expected a full recovery ‎ C. his life was drawing to a close D. the first one wasn’t well performed29.

It used to be thought that this couldn’t be helped, but new studies show that people of any age can train their brains to work faster. “Your brain is a learning machine, “ says University of California scientist Dr. Michael Merzenich. Given the right tools, we can train our brains to act like they did when we were younger. All that’s required is the practice designed just for the purpose: a few exercises for the mind.‎ ‎ Merzenich has developed a computer-based training method to speed up the process(过程) inwhich the brain deals with information (positscience. com). Since much of the data we receive comes through speech, the Brain Fitness Program works with language and hearing to better speed and accuracy (准确性).‎ ‎ 5‎ ‎ Over the course of training, the program starts asking you to distinguish (辨别) sounds(between “dog” and “bog”, for example) at an increasingly faster speed. It’s a bit like tennis instructor, says Merzenich, hitting balls at you ~faster and faster to keep you challenged(受到挑战). You may start out slow, but before long you’re pretty quick.‎ ‎ The biggest finding in brain research in the last ten years is that the brain at any age is highly plastic. If you ask your brain to learn, it will learn. And it may even speed up while in the process. To keep your brain young and plastic you can do one of a million new activities that challenge and excite you: playing table tennis or bridge, doing crossword puzzles, learning a language.... “When it comes to preventing ageing, you really do ‘use it or lose it’,” says Barbara Sahakian, professor at Cambridge University.‎ ‎32.

The animals live in small, isolated groups of as few as 10 pandas that struggle to reproduce and face the risk of disappearing altogether. If we relax our conservation work, the populations and habitats of giant pandas would still suffer a great loss. __37__ Therefore, we’re not being alarmist (危言耸听的) by continuing to emphasize the panda species’ endangered status.‎ ‎ __38__John Howard, a senior official at World Society for the Protection of Animals, expressed his satisfaction over the effective measures taken by the Chinese government. The Chinese government and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) first established the Wolong NationalNature Reserve in Sichuan province in 1980. Wild panda numbers have since slowly recovered as China punishes the skin trade. __39__‎ ‎ Over the last few decades, international groups and the Chinese government have worked tosave wild pandas and breed them in face of their extinction. It is not surprising that the WWF,whose logo has been a panda since 1961, celebrated the panda’s re-classification. __40__A. As a result, our achievements would be quickly lost.‎ ‎ B. The wild panda population jumped to 1,864 in 2014 from 1,596 in 2004.‎ ‎ C. Still, other animal protection organizations praised the recovery of the pandas.‎ ‎ D. Panda has long been a symbol of China and the global conservation movement.‎ ‎ E. And China gradually expanded its protected forest areas to cover 1.4 million hectares now.F.

Confronted with potential risk of sickness, people are always forced to wear masks in order to avoid breathing poisonous air.‎ ‎ With smog getting increasingly serious, environmental protection has become an urgent issue for human beings. As a saying goes, great things may be done by mass effort. For one thing, our government should develop more green and energy-saving ways to lower the amount of polluted air. For another, every single person should raise their awareness of environmental protection and use more public transport. Only if we spare no effort to protect our environment can we enjoy a greener and better life.‎
