Most people don't like roaches. Not Roy Ritzmann. He thinks they are great."They can run very fast," he says. Ritzmann is a scientist. He is helping other scientists to build robots.They are using insects (昆虫）as models.
Robots as we know them started out as films about future. But they are now changed from films into fact. Scientists are looking closely at insects, lobsters (龙虾)and so on.The reason is that they have all the right moves! Their bodies let them live in different places. Their many legs help the animals move easily over bumpy ground (不平的地面). A roach has antennas (触须) and little hairs. These help it feel things around it clearly when something becomes different, so that it can change its way. Scientists are working to build robots with animal-like parts. The parts would make the robots more useful.
These animal-like robots can help to look for people under the buildings. They can also climb or swim into dangerous places. Scientists studied real lobsters to build a RoboLobster. The RoboLobster will swim in the sea and look for useful things for people. Robots may also go into space. A robot based on lobsters and roaches will also travel to Mars. These robots may look strange but one day, they may surprise you and work for you!
( )37.As a scientist, Ritzmann _________.
A.dislikes roaches B.works as a model C.looks for insects D.helps to build robots
( )38.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?
A.Robots only appear in films about future.
B.Scientists are studying insects' living places.
C. Antennas make roaches feel things clearly.
D. Scientists work to make people like insects.
( )39.These animal-like robots can do the following things except (除了) _________.
A. moving buildings B. swimming in the sea
C. going into space D. saving people in need
( )40. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Dangerous Animals B. Surprising Robots C. Special Animals D. Clever Robots

How to Find Yourself
Do you often feel lost? If yes, look for ways to find yourself by going through the following tips.
41._________
The first thing to do is to have a rest from everything. Give time to yourself to think why you seem lost. ls it because of overwork? Is it because you are not living a life that you want? Or is it because you are not happy with the people or things around you?
42._________
Look within and find yourself in you instead of (代替) being the way others want you to be. Think about the things that you would want to do, the places that you would like to visit and the way of life that you would like to follow. Then think how you would want others to describe you.
43._________
Thinking about the past, the time or situations (处境) when you were the happiest, is another way to find yourself. This will help you be sure of what you want to do in life.
44._________
Knowing yourself and deciding what to do with your life will not come to you in a day or two. It can take months or sometimes even years to truly find yourself. So, it's important that you have a writing habit of all your feelings and thoughts.
45._________
Once you have known what you want to do with your life, make a move for a change. Even if it means taking up small things such as dancing or painting, go ahead and do it. If you want a job change, plan and take action so that it can take place successfully.A. Take action

Most people don't like roaches. Not Roy Ritzmann. He thinks they are great."They can run very fast," he says. Ritzmann is a scientist. He is helping other scientists to build robots.They are using insects (昆虫）as models.
Robots as we know them started out as films about future. But they are now changed from films into fact. Scientists are looking closely at insects, lobsters (龙虾)and so on.The reason is that they have all the right moves! Their bodies let them live in different places. Their many legs help the animals move easily over bumpy ground (不平的地面). A roach has antennas (触须) and little hairs. These help it feel things around it clearly when something becomes different, so that it can change its way. Scientists are working to build robots with animal-like parts. The parts would make the robots more useful.
These animal-like robots can help to look for people under the buildings. They can also climb or swim into dangerous places. Scientists studied real lobsters to build a RoboLobster. The RoboLobster will swim in the sea and look for useful things for people. Robots may also go into space. A robot based on lobsters and roaches will also travel to Mars. These robots may look strange but one day, they may surprise you and work for you!

A.dislikes roaches B.works as a model C.looks for insects D.helps to build robots
