How about having it brought to your by a robot? Thanks to Domino’s Robotic Unit or DRU, that just became a reality! On March 8, the three-feet tall robot delivered its first pizza to some lucky residents in Brisbane, Australia.‎ The fully autonomous DRU is the result of a cooperation between Domino’s Pizza Australia and  Marathon Robotics. The 450-pound machine that travels at a maximum speed of 12.4 miles an hour can traverse a distance of up to 12 miles and back, before requiring a battery recharge. LIDAR, a laser-based sensor technology similar to the one used in self-driving cars, enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles, while traditional sensors, much like those used in vacuum robots ensure its path is safe as it heads to its destination.‎ The robot can fit up to ten pizzas and even has a separate cold area to accommodate drink orders. To access their food, customers have to enter the unique code provided to them by the company. This not only ensures that they pick up the right pizza, but also prevents the pies from getting stolen.‎ Scientists expect additional DRU’s to be ready for service in their various Queensland locations within the next six months. But don’t expect these super cute robots to replace humans anytime soon. According to Domino’s the DRU still needs extensive testing, which the company believes could take up to two years.‎ And then there is also the issue of regulations. The public use of autonomous vehicles is still banned in most countries. But Don Meij, the CEO and Managing Director of Domino’s Pizza Australia New Zealand Ltd, is not worried. He is "confident that one day DRU will become an integral part of the Domino’s family."‎ ‎32.What’s the function of LIDAR?‎ A.Keeping DRU free of obstacles B.Recharging DRU’s battery C.Helping DRU find its destination D.Protecting DRU from bad weather ‎33.What does the underlined word “accommodate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A.Heat B.Hold C.Sell D.Show ‎34.Why does the company provide codes for its customers?‎ A.To fit up more pizzas B.To prevent the pizza being taken by mistake C.To keep the pizza warm D.To get the pizza paid in time ‎35.What can we infer about the future of DRU?‎ ‎35.What can we infer about future of DRU?‎ A.It may need some improvements B.It will replace humans soon C.It may be banned in Australia D.It will soon be applied worldwide 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ There are so many things we do in our daily lives that have become a “habit”,　36　How you answer the phone is a habit. The way you sit in the car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after you’ve done it in a certain way for so long?‎ ‎ It’s easy to do as long as you think about it. The minute your mind drifts to something else, you go right back to the old way of doing things. 　37　It’s a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace. To change an existing habit or form a new one can be a tedious(单调乏味的) task.‎ Let’s pick something fairly easy to start with, like spending 15 minutes in the morning reading the Bible. If you want to turn something into a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it. 　38　Make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis.‎ Imprint(铭刻) it in your mind. Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start.‎ After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, "Hey, I forgot to...". Keep using the notes if you have to. 　39　Some people say it will take over a month to solidify(变得稳固) it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine. 　40　 ‎ A. What is a "habit" anyway?‎ B. Is doing things in an old way good?‎ C. Brushing your teeth is a habit.‎ D. Forming a bad habit is easy.‎ E. It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit.‎ F. If you don’t, you will find a way to do everything but that.‎ G.That’s something you won’t necessarily have to think about before you do it — habit.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ Do you hate to get your hands dirty?When I see my 10-year-old son 41 the dirty plates in the sink or my 8 year-old daughter cringing(畏缩) at the wet sand clinging(黏住) to her hands,I am reminded of a time when I was 42 to get my hands a little dirty.‎ My parents owned a 500-acre 43 in Montana when I was young.I’d often come home from school to find a/an 44 lamb or a calf

help.My mother calmly held the ewe’s head and 48 me to grab hold of the two protruding(突出的) legs.‎ I hesitated,and must have had quite a look of 49 on my young face.The slimy little things were 50 not something I wanted to touch.But I worked up my 51 and wrapped my fingers around them.I can still recall the feel of 52 the delicate legs and their sharp little hooves(蹄子) as of it happened yesterday.‎ My heart beat in fear and excitement as I 53 with all my strength.The lamb was delivered with an outpouring,and I’d never seen 54 so beautiful.I was no 55 to see ranch animals being born,but to have a

been lost.These days I try to instill(灌输) that life lesson into my own 59 .Sometimes you need to get your hands a little dirty to experience something 60 and pure.‎ ‎41.A.throwing B.wasting C.washing

Doss White, 72 years old, is asking $3000 in damages from the store for wrongful arrest.Mrs. White visited the store while doing some shopping, but she did not buy anything. She was followed through the town by a store manager. He had been told that a customer saw her take a card and put it in her shopping bag. He stopped her at a bookstore as she was reading a book. Mrs. White said, “This man, a total stranger, suddenly grabbed my bag and asked if he could look in it.” She was taken back to the store and put in a small room in full view of the other shoppers for 20 minutes until the police arrived. At the police station, she was body-searched, but nothing was found. Her lawyer said that the department store sent her an apology, but they insisted that she may have been stealing. More will be reported today.‎
