13．（6分）For people，it's not surprising that we can open a door，lift a heavy box and control ourselves while walking in the snow.But can a robot do this？Well，Atlas，can not only do these things，it was created mainly to work in dangerous places for humans.
Now，robots are much smarter than you might imagine.On March 9 this year，AlphaGo（AI，人工智能）program made by Google's DeepMind，challenged top professional Go player Lee Sedol from South Korea.And AlphaGo beat Lee at last.
AI means computers or computer software is able to have intelligent behavior，such as thinking or acting like a human.In our daily lives，we already use AI in many ways
Some people may worry whether computers are now smart enough to beat us at everything.But experts say that is not the case.Real life problems can be more difficult than the Go game.For example，humans can watch a person throw down a cup of coffee and know that the result will be a mess on the floor.A computer program would have to know the size of the cup，the height of the cup from the floor and many other things to find out the result.But we never know what will happen in the future.

（1）In Paragraph 2，the writer mentioned the game between AlphaGo and Lee Sedol to 　 　.
A.explain how smart robots are
B.introduce the development of robots
C.show the game was very exciting
D.tell us how robots beat humans in the game
（2）The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 4 refers to" 　 　".
A.AI is already used in many ways
B.AI can think and act like a human
C.AlphaGo beat Lee Sedol in the Go game
D.Computers can beat humans at everything
（3）From the passage，we can infer（推断） 　 　.
A.humans will have to follow robots' orders
B.it's difficult for robots to take human's place
C.robots will be just as common as mobile phones
D.people will use their robots to do all the things
14．（6分）
Hot Pot（火锅） and Hotpot
I'm learning English in the UK where I meet a lot of new friends and eat something delicious.Hot pot is many Chinese people's favorite food，including（包括）me.After having three days of hamburgers，how excited I was to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students.On the way to the canteen，I seemed to smell the hot pot in the air.
To my surprise，when I stepped into the room，in front of me were still potatoes and bread.Where was the hot pot？
With many questions in my head，I sat down to have the free meal.After talking with a French girl，I got to know that hot pot is completely different from hotpot.Chinese hot pot is written in two words and hotpot，is a traditional English dish.
Hotpot is made from mutton and onion.On the top there are sliced potatoes.People put it in the oven all day in a heavy pot and on a low heat.You can often see it at parties in the UK because it's easy to prepare for a large number of people and is not expensive.
Hotpot doesn't taste bad.However，I still miss hot pot，two words!

（1）The writer felt excited when she thought that she would 　 　.
A.meet some Chinese friends
B.have a chance to try some new food
C.have her favorite food
D.learn more about English culture
（2）A "canteen" may be a place 　 　.
A.selling food and drinks
B.for students to have sports
C.just like a library
D.for students to study
（3）Hotpot is often prepared for parties because it is 　 　.
A.delicious
B.healthy
C.easy to prepare
D.expensive
15．（8分）Tipping（给小费） is as American as apple pie.Because of that，an apple pie costs 15% more than you thought it would.In the UK，but in the United States tipped workers make much less per hour.Money from tips is expected to provide a large amount of tipped workers overall wage（工资） in the USA.
So tipping in the USA isn't just a nice thing to do，but it's pretty important to know how to tip properly.
• It's not a must.
Just so we're clear，there are no laws（法律） saying you have to tip.You won't cause an international accident over a tipping problem﹣﹣you may just upset the person who has been serving you if you don't tip him or her.
• It is expected.
We'd certainly suggest it if you plan to use that restaurant，hotel or delivery boy again!There are lots of things that aren't against laws but impolite.Not tipping is one of those impolite things.
• It is common.
In the USA，people are expected to tip waiters，taxi drivers（or any delivery guys at any time）.
• Know how much to tip.
The standard（标准的） amount is 15%.And it's encouraged to give 20% for great service.Be generous!
For larger groups at restaurants，the tip is often included（包含） in the bill
• Be a high﹣tech tipper.
You may haven't noticed that most Americans are not big fans of math.But they do love a good app，so they can use many apps to work out how much the tip is.Anyway，you can also use the old﹣fashioned pencil and paper to work out the tip.

（1）In which country，tipped workers are paid much less per hour？ 　 　
A.In the UK.
B.In the USA.
C.In China.
D.In Thailand.
（2）If your cost in a hotel with great service is 100，you are expected to tip 　 　.
A.＄10
B.＄15
C.＄20
D.＄25
（3）According to the passage，which one is TRUE about tipping in the USA？ 　 　
A.The tip is never included in the bill.
B.Tipping is expected by tipped workers.
C.High﹣tech is the only way to work out how much the tip is.
D.There are some laws asking you to tip someone who serves you.
（4）The best title for this passage is"　 　".
A.How much to tip？
B.How to tip properly？
C.How to be a high﹣tech tipper？
D.How to work out the tip？
B）请阅读下面一篇短文，根据短文内容从方框中选择适当的句子还原到文中，有两项是多余的。

13．（6分）For people，it's not surprising that we can open a door，lift a heavy box and control ourselves while walking in the snow.But can a robot do this？Well，Atlas，can not only do these things，it was created mainly to work in dangerous places for humans.
Now，robots are much smarter than you might imagine.On March 9 this year，AlphaGo（AI，人工智能）program made by Google's DeepMind，challenged top professional Go player Lee Sedol from South Korea.And AlphaGo beat Lee at last.
AI means computers or computer software is able to have intelligent behavior，such as thinking or acting like a human.In our daily lives，we already use AI in many ways
Some people may worry whether computers are now smart enough to beat us at everything.But experts say that is not the case.Real life problems can be more difficult than the Go game.For example，humans can watch a person throw down a cup of coffee and know that the result will be a mess on the floor.A computer program would have to know the size of the cup，the height of the cup from the floor and many other things to find out the result.But we never know what will happen in the future.

15．（8分）Tipping（给小费） is as American as apple pie.Because of that，an apple pie costs 15% more than you thought it would.In the UK，but in the United States tipped workers make much less per hour.Money from tips is expected to provide a large amount of tipped workers overall wage（工资） in the USA.
So tipping in the USA isn't just a nice thing to do，but it's pretty important to know how to tip properly.

• It is common.
In the USA，people are expected to tip waiters，taxi drivers（or any delivery guys at any time）.
• Know how much to tip.
The standard（标准的） amount is 15%.And it's encouraged to give 20% for great service.Be generous!
For larger groups at restaurants，the tip is often included（包含） in the bill
• Be a high﹣tech tipper.
You may haven't noticed that most Americans are not big fans of math.But they do love a good app，so they can use many apps to work out how much the tip is.Anyway，you can also use the old﹣fashioned pencil and paper to work out the tip.
