• 2．Modern day robots may not be as entertaining as R2 D2 or the robot from Lost in Space，but robots are very important to space exploration and are being used in a variety of different ways for several important reasons.
     Robots make great explorers on planets，the moon，and other landing areas.Aside from the earth，just about every surface in the solar system is unsafe for humans to explore.The air on most other planets is insufficient for humans to breathe，making it necessary to wear a space suit and oxygen equipment.The temperatures on these surfaces are much too hot or much too cold for any humans to withstand.Plus there would be complications with radiation，weather，and a lack of gravity.Robots have much less limitation in these areas and can survive much longer under these conditions.
     Robots are designed for collecting scientific data.Robots are also able to perform many tasks at one time and can process information much quicker and more efficiently.Important scientific projects from detecting minerals，analyzing ground samples，to finding water are all performed much quicker and accurately by robots.
     The use of robots has made the cost of space exploration much less expensive than it would cost for humans to do the work.In order to successfully send humans into space we would need to build a vehicle that can not only carry humans，but also enough food and water to keep them alive for the duration of the trip.Moreover，robots have no problems working for hours on end.Robots never complain，they don't require food or water，and they never need a bathroom break.
     Over the past 30 years or so there have been many different types of robots used successfully in the exploration of space.Perhaps the most famous and successful robots are Spirit and Opportunity who have both been exploring the surface of Mars.They have both been very successful with experiments on soil and rocks and have even found evidence of water in Mars' history.
  
  （1）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？

  
  A．The Development of Robots
  B．The Discovery of Space Exploration
  C．No Robots，No Space Exploration
  D．Robots Are Used in Space Exploration
  （2）According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true？

  
  A．The use of robots in space exploration costs more than the use of humans.
  B．It is dangerous for humans to explore other surfaces in the solar system except the earth.
  C．Both Spirit and Opportunity have found the evidence of water on Mars.
  D．Many different types of robots have explored the space successfully.
  （3）The underlined word "withstand" most probably means "

  ".
  A．remain
  B．bear
  C．defeat
  D．develop
  （4）What is the writer's attitude in this passage？

  
  A．Negative.
  B．Persuasive.
  C．Subjective.
  D．Objective.

• 3．Our children and grandchildren may not have a chance to visit many of the most famous places around the world.War，weather，age，traffic and pollution damage these famous places.If we do nothing，they may even no longer remain.But looking after these places often costs more than one country can afford.
     In the early 1970s，world governments decided that if they joined together，they would be able to preserve our history.If every country paid some money，they said，it would be possible to look after important historic places.For this reason，countries around the world united to form the World Heritage Organization in 1972.Today，the organization helps to protect and rebuild the most important places from our history.
     However，one of the biggest problems for historic places is vandalism.That is to say，people sometimes enter these places and damage the buildings.At some places，such as Stonehenge in England，governments have built high fences to protect it from vandals.
     There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism.Some professors say that if guards keep walking around these places，vandals won't be able to get in.Some professors say that if they fix more television cameras，they won't need so many guards.Others say that the best way is education.If people learn to respect history，they won't damage it.They will also want to spend money looking after old places.For this reason，the World Heritage Organization helps to spread information about the value of historic places.
  
  （1）Our children and grandchildren may not have a chance to visit many of the most famous places around the world，probably because

  .
  A．they don't have enough money to go there
  B．these places may disappear in the future
  C．governments don't allow them to enter
  D．they are afraid of the guards there
  （2）Which of the following shows us the action of vandalism？

  
  A．People enter the places and damage the buildings.
  B．Governments build high fences to protect the place from vandals.
  C．Guards walk around these places and fix more television cameras.
  D．War，weather，age，traffic and pollution damage these famous places.
  （3）What's the best way to solve the biggest problem of vandalism？

  
  A．To spend more money looking after these places.

  C．To fix more television cameras in these places.
  D．To make people know about the value of historic places.

• 4．The hike to the lost Incan city of Choquequirao is one of the most difficult in Peru.From the town of Cachora，which is 161km west of Cusco，it's an 18km walk to Capuliyoc Mountain，then down to Playa Rosalina，where travellers camp for the night.Waking early，travellers then have to cross the Apurímac River and walk uphill to camp close to the ruins.Then，the next morning，it's another 2km walk up to the ruins，3，100 m above sea level.To get back？Well，it's the same way you came.
     "I've had people in their 60s and 70s do it，" said Juan Barrios，a guide from the Adventure Life company. "But some people come out thinking that because it's only 28km from the drop off they can do it in a day.Six or seven days for the hike is best."
     It makes sense，then，that Choquequirao draws only about 30 people a day during the high season（June through August）.Compare that to the 2，500 people who arrive each day at the famous Incan city of Machu Picchu.
     But for those who make the journey，the rewards（回報(bào)）are great：beautiful mountain views at every turn，and the chance to explore the wonderful ruins nearly alone.
     Believed to be created around the same time as Machu Picchu，in 1445，Choquequirao is actually larger than better-known Machu Picchu.But very little has been written about Peru's other lost city and researchers are still uncovering new parts of the ruins，leaving life on the mountain relatively untouched.
     But officials say that the building of the first cable car（纜車）to Choquequirao will shorten the several-day walk to a 15-minute cable car ride.As a result，the number of travellers that now make the journey each week could turn into 3，000 visitors per day.
     Choquequirao is beautiful now because of how untouched it is.Even though the lost city was discovered by Spanish explorer Juan Arias Díaz in 1710，the ruins still make you feel as though you're the first to find them.Will it be the same when more travellers flood in （大量涌入）？
  
  （1）What does the first paragraph centre on？

  
  A．How tall Choquequirao is.
  B．How to get to Choquequirao easily.
  C．What great views Choquequirao has.
  D．How hard the trip to Choquequirao is.
  （2）In what way is Choquequirao different from Machu Picchu？

  
  A．Choquequirao is older.
  B．Choquequirao is quieter.
  C．Choquequirao is smaller.
  D．Choquequirao is better known.
  （3）How are the ruins of Choquequirao？

  
  A．They're still being dug out.
  B．They're in a generally poor condition.
  C．They're being renewed at the moment.
  D．They've been researched internationally.
  （4）What does the author think of Choquequirao in the future？

  
  A．It will be more attractive.
  B．It will develop at a slow speed.
  C．It won't necessarily take a turn for the better.
  D．It won't be more popular than Machu Picchu.

• 5．One of the easiest and most pleasing ways to express your creativity （創(chuàng)造力） is by drawing．In addition，drawing can calm you down in many ways．It can help keep you away from negative thoughts and clear your mind．（1）

  
     Draw something that makes you comfortable．Content （內(nèi)容） does not matter as much as the meaning you connect with whatever you choose to draw．If you find mountains or trees relaxing to be around，try your hand at drawing．You can also draw things like pets or buildings．（2）

  For example，draw a dog's head on a pig's body with a horse's legs and tail．
     Just draw．Experiment on drawing with different color patterns （色型） and emotions．Believe it or not，drawing can help realize physical relaxation by lowering your blood pressure．Color your drawing with bright，exciting colors．Draw patterns．Start with changes of circles，as they're easier to draw．Simply cover a page in a pattern．Keep your subjects smile．Whether you are drawing mountains，humans，or animals，add a face with a smile．（3）

  
     Go somewhere where you feel calm．Choose some quiet places．Turn off your phone，and avoid areas with television or computers．Some private （私人的） places are best，as your drawing will not be forbidden by the presence of others，and you will be less likely to be bothered．Get outside．（4）

  Drawing outside can also give you ideas of things to draw．
     Have fun（5）

  Don't worry about the final product．And don't judge your artistic abilities．Lose yourself in the experience of creation!Sitting down to draw for just a few minutes can brighten your feelings．You'll feel energetic and may feel even more open-minded for the rest of the day．
  
  A．Let yourself enjoy the process．
  B．Listen to music when you draw．
  C．Simply being outside will calm you down．
  D．Sure，it's silly but you'll probably smile back．
  E．Hang up your work somewhere it will catch your eye．
  F．You can even try combinations of different animal parts．
  G．And the enjoyment of drawing can help keep your stresses away．
