You have probably seen robots in movies such as Star Wars or Transformers. But soon, robots may be part of our daily lives. Today's scientists are working on robots with various skills(技能).For example, it is likely that robots will soon help take care of children or the elderly, or do dangerous jobs such as fighting fires.
Early robots were made to do simple things, especially in factories. Since then, robots have changed a lot. Humans operated these early robots. Today's robots ---like Honda’s ASIMO---work on their own. ASIMO can run, climb stairs, and dance. Boston Dynamics ’Atlas robot can run fast,jump, and even do backflips(后空翻) ---all on two legs.
Then there are robots designed to be like humans. These robots have faces and can also talk.Such robots can learn new things, and show us how they“feel”. Sophia--- a social robot---has a face that looks so human she sometimes makes people feel uncomfortable.
Scientists aren't just building humanli ke robots. They are also making robots that look and act like animals.
At NASA(美国国家航空航天局), for example, scientists have made a robot snake. These snake-bots can enter holes and move over rough ground. They might one day help scientists look for signs of life on Mars. Other animal robots include the frog-bot, which can jump over objects, and the sticky-bot, which have four legs and can run at high speed. Who knows? Perhaps in the future, we’ll have our own robot pet.
34. The passage is mainly about ▲ .
A. things robots can do B. famous robots from movies
C. how to make your own robot D. what robots look like
35. What is the purpose(目的) of Paragraph 2?
A. To describe how the first robots worked.
B. To tell how today's robots are different from early robots.
C. To give an example of a robot that worked in a factory.
D. To show some new robots.
36. In Paragraph 3, the underlined they refers(指代) to ▲ .
A. Humans B. Humanlike Robots
C. Scientists D. Early Robots

Dear Wendy,
Hello! How are you? I met Aunt Sue at the supermarket today. I was surprised to see her trolley(手推车) filled with flour, sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, and even a small electric blender. I know that she dislikes baking. When I asked her, she said that you wanted to bake a cake.
I am not an expert in baking but I have baked quite a few cakes before. Look at the cakes I baked last weekend!They look delicious, don't they?
Now, let me share some useful tips with you.
If your butter is taken directly from the refrigerator(冰箱), it will be cold and hard. Try to cut it into thin pieces or grate(磨碎) it and put it over some warm water for about ten minutes. This will make it easier to mix it with the other ingredients.
Most importantly, make sure that you set the correct temperature for the oven. Besides turning on the oven before putting in the mixture, remember to check that the oven rack is placed in the center. This helps to bake the cake evenly(均匀地). What type of baking tray(托盘) are you using? If you are using a glass tray, do adjust(调整) the oven temperature by about 25°C.
Have fun baking your cake.
Love,
Sarah
37. Sarah was surprised that Aunt Sue ▲ .
A. liked baking B. had bought a trolley
C. was alone at the supermarket without Wendy D. was buying ingredients for baking
38. Before using the oven, Wendy should check that ▲ .
A. the cake is baked evenly B. the oven rack is in the middle
C. the temperature in the oven is adjusted to 25° C D. she is using a glass tray
39. Sarah wrote the letter because she wanted ▲ .
A. to bake the cake with Wendy
B. to tell Wendy the steps of baking a cake.
C. to tell Wendy what to be careful about when baking a cake
D. Wendy to share her baking experience with her soon

It was really a very special day. Kate was going on her first-ever plane flight. When she arrived at the boarding gate, a flight attendant(乘务员) was waiting.“Hurry up, Miss. We’re all ready to take off!”she said to Kate. Kate shyly handed over her ticket.“I'm sorry. I'm not used to flying. In fact, this is my first-ever flight,” she said worriedly.“Really?”said the lady kindly.“Well, let's see what we can do to help you. Wait here!”The lady moved away and had a quick talk with someone over her radio. A few moments later, she was back.“You are the last passenger to board, so I will come with you to the plane,”she said.
She guided Kate to the door of the plane. Kate was surprised to see who was waiting for her. It was the captain(机长). “Welcome, Kate,”smiled the captain. “How would you like to sit up in the cockpit(驾驶舱) with me for your first flight?” Kate looked at the captain in surprise.“Am I really allowed to do that?”she asked.“Of course!”was the answer.“I’m the captain, and I like to treat(款待) all my first-time passengers to a trip to remember!”So Kate took a seat beside the captain.

卷 Ⅱ
说明：本卷共四大题，满分39分
四、任务型阅读(本题有4小题，每小题1分，共4分)
先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，完成表格。注意：每空不超过三个单词。
Laugh with friends or giggle(咯咯笑) at a cartoon. It doesn't matter why you're laughing——laughter is good for you, and that's no joke.
A good laugh helps you right away. When you laugh, changes happen in your body. For example, you take in more air, which is good for your heart. A good laugh increases your heart rate.When you laugh, your brain also releases(释放) chemicals that make you feel happy. Laughing can also make you feel relaxed for up to 45 minutes.
Laughter can also reduce pain. You probably don't want to chuckle(咯咯地笑) when you're injured, but laughter helps the body make its own natural pain medicine. Laughing is also great exercise!Research shows that laughing 100 times is as good as riding a bike for 15 minutes.
Negative(消极的) thoughts can cause you to feel sad or worried. But when you laugh, your brain
makes chemicals that make these feelings go away. These chemicals also prevent some illnesses. Many scientists also believe laughter is good for your mental(心理的) health ---it helps people communicate better with each other.
So why don't you try laughing out loud every day? See how you feel. Are your muscles less tense(紧张的)? Do you feel more relaxed? That's laughter at work.

五、单词拼写(本题有10小题，每小题 1分，共10分)
