Last year,I received a special present.My children 1 me a stainless steel coffee machine for my birthday.I love drinking coffee every morning and couldn't 2 to use it.But 3 I poured my first cup,the coffee spilled (洒出) all over the table.Thankfully,no one was around to see my 4 face!I kept trying,but each morning I 5 be seen wiping up the coffee.Then I realized if I poured very 6 ,there could be no spilling.My normal 7 was to rush through breakfast to get on with my day.But eventually I learned not only to pour but to 8 the experience:the taste and the stillness of a new day.
It promoted me to 9 upon whether I was rushing through in other areas of my life.So I started to appreciate even the most 10 moments.When shop owners apologized for keeping me waiting,I'd say,“Not a problem.I'm not 11 .” I even enjoyed sitting in front of my house talking with 12 and sharing our own stories, 13 we had known each other for a long time.It seemed that the world around us slowed to a 14 we could handle.
Stillness not only slows the pace of life,but also 15 the soul,helping us to enjoy the world's small pleasures and realize the truth of life.

三、阅读理解
A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly.The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high tech integrated systems.Designed to do what a fly does naturally,the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly.Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
“It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood,a Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade.A few years ago,his team got the go ahead to start piecing together the components.“The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly.“The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components,each of which individually has to perform well,but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to,” said Wood.The flight device was built into a set of power,computation,sensing and control systems.Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.
While this first robotic fly is linked to a small,off board power source,the goal is eventually to equip it with a built in power source,so that it might someday perform data gathering work at rescue sites,in farmers' fields or on the battlefield.“Basically,it should be able to take off,land and fly around,” he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect scale.Yet,the power,sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications.“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions,you know,to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals,but using these robots instead,” he said.“So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drive us on a day to day basis.”
1.Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met while making the robotic fly
A.They did not have sufficient fund.
B.No ready made components were available.
C.There was no model in their mind.
D.It was hard for them to assemble the components.
2.What do we know about the robotic fly
A.The robotic fly has been put into wide application.
B.The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system.
C.The robotic fly can collect information from many sources.
D.The robotic fly can fly well with the cooperation of individual components.
3.Which of the following can be learned from the passage
A.The robotic fly can replace animals in some experiments.
B.Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.
C.The robotic fly is designed to learn about insects.
D.There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.
4.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage
A.Father of Robotic Fly
B.Inspiration from Engineering Science
C.Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study
D.Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect
答案和解析
一、单句语法填空
1.an
2.be nailed
3.saleswomen
4.to be suspended
5.declaring
二、完形填空
1.C 根据上文“Last year,I received a special present.”可知,咖啡机是孩子们送给“我”的。此处gift为动词,意为“赠送”。
2.B 作者喜欢每天早上喝咖啡,因此是迫不及待想用。can't wait to do sth.意为“迫不及待做某事”。故选B。
3.C 根据语境可知,当“我”第一次倒咖啡时,咖啡洒了一桌子,此处需用as引导时间状语从句。
4.A 根据上文“...the coffee spilled all over the table.”可知,咖啡洒在桌子上,“我”应该是失望的(disappointed)。
5.A 结合上下文可知,“我”一直尽力不把咖啡洒出来,但每天早上还是会看到“我”在擦(桌子上的)咖啡。此处用would表示过去经常发生的事情。
6.C 根据下文“My normal...was to rush through breakfast to get on with my day.”可知,作者早上总是很匆忙,导致咖啡洒了出来,因此此处是指作者意识到慢慢(slowly)倒就不会洒了。故选C。
7.B 作者做事很着急,他通常的做法是匆匆吃完早餐,开始新的一天。practice意为“惯例”。
8.D 但最终“我”不仅学会了倒咖啡,还学会了享受(enjoy)新的一天的味道和安静。
9.A 这件事促使“我”反思,“我”是否在生活的其他领域中也匆忙行事。 reflect upon意为“思考,深思”。
10.B 所以“我”开始去欣赏生活中那些最平凡的时刻。ordinary意为“普通的,平凡的”。
11.C 根据上文语境可知,作者学会了让自己慢下来,此处是举例,当店主为让“我”久等而道歉时,“我”会说,那不是问题,“我”不赶时间(in a hurry)。
12.D 根据句意和句中“...we had known each other for a long time.”可知,“我”甚至喜欢坐在房子前面和陌生人(stranger)聊天,分享我们自己的故事,就好像我们已经认识很长时间了。
13.B 根据对语境的理解可知,此处是指“我”和陌生人交谈,就像是认识很久了一样,后面用了虚拟语气,故此处用as if最符合语境。
14.A 根据下文“Stillness not only slows the pace of life...”可知,我们周围的世界的节奏慢了下来。
15.D 静止不仅减慢了生活的节奏,也滋养了(feed)我们的灵魂,帮助我们享受世界上的小乐趣,认识生命的真谛。
三、阅读理解
1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“像这样的项目还有一个额外的困难,那就是这些组件都不是现成的,所以我们必须自己开发。”由此可知,工程师们在让机器人飞行时遇到的困难是没有现成的组件。故选B。
2.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中“each of which individually has to perform well,but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to.(每一个必须单独地良好运行,然后必须很好地匹配它所连接的一切。)”可推知,机器苍蝇需要各部分协作发挥作用。故选D。
3.A 细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句“你可以开始考虑用它们来回答开放式的科学问题,你知道,用动物来研究生物学很难,但可以用这些机器人来代替”可知,伍德的设计可以在某些实验中代替动物。故选A。
4.D 标题归纳题。文章主要讲述的是哈佛大学从自然界的昆虫那里得到了灵感,设计开发了第一款机器苍蝇。
