I have been watching my daughters play sports since they were four, and have been shocked at how some parents in the crowd behave.
At soccer games, when my girls were very young, parents would be screaming at their children to get their heads into the game,to charge,to “get” an opposing player, or to “kill it”. I understand parents want to encourage their children and their team —but at some point it becomes too much.
My daughter Grace is a high school and AAU (Association of American Universities) basketball player and a very good one at that. During a recent game,a parent sitting near me was shouting loudly to her daughter,standing up, expressing displeasure about the way her team was playing and, during halftime, speaking loudly about her personal life. After having her in my ear for more than half of the game, I was so put off that I had to move.
Admittedly,I am the quiet parent at games. I clap for the schoolgirls when they make wonderful plays. For the most part,however, I remain silent. Shouting out makes them nervous.
I asked Grace to weigh in on this, and she tells me: "Some parents become extremely emotionally invested in sports games, which can become a problem for the players. The worst thing is when people point out that 'crazy parent’,they don’t know that’s your parent."
I am all for parent spectators cheering on their children and the rest of the team. But I hope you can cheer your children on in a positive way. Shouting things like "Where’s your head Go after her!” is not, in my view, the way to cheer on high school students or younger children.
If you have nothing positive to say, hold your tongue. If you find yourself struggling to keep it together, get some fresh air during halftime.
1.Unable to stand the mother nearby,the author ________.
A.told her to shut up B.found another seat
C.asked Grace for help D.refused to talk to her
2.In Grace’s opinion,crazy parents in the audience will make players feel _______.
A.helpless B.impatient C.scared D.ashamed
3.The author is against parent spectators ___________.
A.keeping silent all the time B.saying unpleasant words
C.cheering on the players D.leaving during halftime
4.Who are the intended readers of the text
A.Parents. B.Teenage players. C.Soccer spectators. D.Coaches.
C
In the future, when robots can be used both in homes and in other areas, they could improve the living standards of people. Many people burn their energy on their day-to-day tasks like cooking, cleaning after work, etc. When robots can complete such jobs,people can spend more time with their family and friends. Experts say that many major problems in the modern world are caused by miscommunication. When people have more time,they can talk freely to solve such issues and eventually create a happy society.
Robots can be used on certain jobs to avoid accidents caused by careless behaviour of some people. When robots are used on such work, it does not risk any human life due to accidents at the workplace. Human resources can be efficiently used by performing tasks which demand human skills like critical thinking and problem solving. Robots can be used on low-end jobs like moving heavy things and heavy weight lifting.
While some people talk about how robots can be useful to humans, others voice their concerns about reduction in human value and the creation of a lazy society due to heavy dependency on robots. When robots become cheaper to produce,employers may prefer to use more robots than humans. As the technology constantly improves the abilities of robots i it could weaken the value of humans. Many people may rely on robots heavily. Some may even develop the habit of using robots on tasks that they can easily do. This could create a lazy society.
As an aging society, Japan sees it as a must to build robots that take care of elderly people at their homes, because without them,the nation’s health care system can't cope. There will simply be too many elderly people to care for as the nation faces a decreasing birth rate, an aging population,and the loosening of family ties. However,many of Japan's elderly people would prefer human helpers rather than robots. Above all. Japan wants,if not “needs”,its dreams of robots in the home to come true because its immigration(移民) policy is anti-immigration.
In conclusion, robots can be used on anything that can eventually improve humans’ living standards but we can't depend on them too much. Robots can be used to help humans live in harmony and form a happy society.
1.According to the first paragraph, when robots can be used in homes, __________.
A.people will spend more time on their work
B.there would be more misunderstandings between humans
C.people's living standards will he improved
D.people may communicate more with robots than human beings
2.Compared with humans, robots are better at ___________.
A.problem solving B.communicating with others
C.critical thinking D.working safely
3.Some people worry that with more robots being used __________.
A.people will be unwilling to work hard
B.human resources won't be needed at the workplace
C.it will be harder to improve the abilities of robots
D.robots will be beyond our control
4.What can we infer from Paragraph 4
A.Japan will try to develop robots to be used in the home.
B.The robots are well received by elderly people in Japan.
C.The Japanese government encourages foreigners to move to Japan.
D.Most Japanese citizens are against robots in the home.
D
Claude Sammut, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of New South Wales in Australia, said it would soon be possible for robots to defeat the stars of the future.
For many years, Mr. Sammut has been a member of a project called RoboCup, where robots have been programmed to learn how to play football and compete against others in a football match.
As he explains, the robots are having difficulty in learning how to control the ball and move the ball on their own, but he is still full of confidence that one day in the future they will show the same skills as Wayne Rooney, who is one of the best football players in the world.
Mr Sammut also said, "In 1968. John McCarthy and Donald Michie made a bet with David Levy, who was then the chess champion in Scotland, that within 10 years a computer programme would be able to beat him. It took a little bit longer than 10 years (nearly 30 years) but eventually such programmes came into being."
"In the same spirit of a grand challenge, RohoCup aims to develop a team of robots that can defeat the world soccer champion team by the year 2050. To achieve this, or come even closer to the ambition, the robots will have to be able to sense and act in completely unstructured environments. This will require major advances in robots' perception(感知), decision-making, learning, and cooperative behaviours. Considering robots are integrated hardware and software systems, great advances will also be needed in sensors(传感器), energy storage, and materials."
1. The RoboCup is aimed to develop robots that know how to ________.
A. play computer football games
B. play football and win in real matches
C. understand the rules of the football game
D. improve the skills of real football players
2. What kind of difficulty are the robots facing in playing football
A. They can't run as fast as real people.
B. They can't recognize their partners accurately.
C. They can't control the ball well by themselves.
D. They can't pass the ball to their partners.
3. We can conclude from Mr Sammut's words that _____.
A. many parts of robots still need improving
B. robots would be smarter than human beings in the near future
C. robots have more ambitions than human beings
D. robots are able to sense and act in completely unstructed environments
4. What's the best title for this passage
A. Scientists' Wisdom in Designing Robot Football Players
B. Robot Football Players to Beat World's Best by 2050
C. Robot Football Players' Bright Future
D. Mr Sammut—the Father of Robot Football Players

Mo never cheated and she failed lots of exams. Terry had already put her phone away when Mo looked up again. She looked back at Mo and smiled sadly. “Stop writing and put your pens down” said Mr Reed as he started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Mo hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
The next exam was history. That was Mo’s favourite subject but she didn’t feel good. “It wasn’t fair!” she thought. “Terry was getting good grades by cheating all that time. And I thought we were friends!” Just then, Mr Reed walked past her table. “Mr Reed...”
Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam, but Terry didn’t take her phone out. Mo was feeling bad again. Why did she tell Mr Reed But it was too late now.

第二节
答案：greater; achievement; is; on; as; studies; regularly; a; to bring; make
解析：本文属于说明,告诉我们当工作压力太大的时候,应该怎么做来合理释放压力。
①考查比较级。本空所填之词和比较级less 是并列关系,使用相同的比较级形式greater .
②考查名词。横线前面有介词of ,横线上要使用名词achievemnet 作为of的宾语。句意:首先处理重要的事情,那么你会有成就感。
③考查句子结构和主谓一致。本句中单个动名词短语“Leaving.....tomorrow”在句中做主语,谓语动词使用单数形式,所以使用is。
④考查固定搭配。形容词短语be focused on集中于....;很多人早晨对任务的注意力要比晚些时候的注意力更集中。
⑤考查固定搭配。短语as...as....和...一样;正是因为人们早晨的注意力更为集中,所以我们要早起,要和午饭之前一样的高效率。
⑥考查名词单复数。本句的谓语动词是show,说明主语是复数名词studies。
⑦考查副词。在英语副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词或动词,形容词通常在句中做定语或表语修饰名词。所以本句中使用副词regularly做状语修饰动词take short breaks。
⑧考查固定短语。介词短语for a while一会;本句是指通过锻炼或做一些你喜欢的事情,让你的身体和思维休息一会。
⑨考查形容词短语。形容词短语be likely to do sth 可能做某事;你就不太可能把工作带回家去做,因为你找到了你喜欢做的事情。
⑩考查祈使句。本剧中动词短语make sure 放在句首,构成祈使句。句意:要保证它是让你释放,而不是让你担忧的事。

解析：
本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Mo和Terry是好朋友,在参加一次考试时,两个人之间发生了误会的故事。Mo的物理不好,本来好友Terry答应帮助她,可两个星期Terry都不和她说话,不接她的电话,也不回她的短信。这让Mo非常难受。考试开始了, Mo发现Terry在看手机,误以为原来成绩一直很好的Terry是通过作弊得到的高分。
1段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“她正在思考最后一个问题时,发现Terry把手机放在桌子下面了。"可知,第一段可描写Terry考试看手机被老师发现的事情,而Terry离开后,Mo反而坐立不安,感到内疚。
②由第二段首句内容Mo朝校门走去,这时她听到身后有脚步声。”可知,第二段可描写Terry和Mo再次相遇后的事情,Terry告诉了Mo自己开始看手机的原因是父亲生病了,两人重归于好。
2.续写线索:Mo发现Terry作弊一Terry被老师发现一Terry哭着离开教室一Terry告诉Mo真相两人重归于好

I have been watching my daughters play sports since they were four, and have been shocked at how some parents in the crowd behave.
At soccer games, when my girls were very young, parents would be screaming at their children to get their heads into the game,to charge,to “get” an opposing player, or to “kill it”. I understand parents want to encourage their children and their team —but at some point it becomes too much.
My daughter Grace is a high school and AAU (Association of American Universities) basketball player and a very good one at that. During a recent game,a parent sitting near me was shouting loudly to her daughter,standing up, expressing displeasure about the way her team was playing and, during halftime, speaking loudly about her personal life. After having her in my ear for more than half of the game, I was so put off that I had to move.
Admittedly,I am the quiet parent at games. I clap for the schoolgirls when they make wonderful plays. For the most part,however, I remain silent. Shouting out makes them nervous.
I asked Grace to weigh in on this, and she tells me: "Some parents become extremely emotionally invested in sports games, which can become a problem for the players. The worst thing is when people point out that 'crazy parent’,they don’t know that’s your parent."
I am all for parent spectators cheering on their children and the rest of the team. But I hope you can cheer your children on in a positive way. Shouting things like "Where’s your head Go after her!” is not, in my view, the way to cheer on high school students or younger children.
If you have nothing positive to say, hold your tongue. If you find yourself struggling to keep it together, get some fresh air during halftime.
1.Unable to stand the mother nearby,the author ________.
A.told her to shut up B.found another seat
C.asked Grace for help D.refused to talk to her
2.In Grace’s opinion,crazy parents in the audience will make players feel _______.
A.helpless B.impatient C.scared D.ashamed
3.The author is against parent spectators ___________.
A.keeping silent all the time B.saying unpleasant words
C.cheering on the players D.leaving during halftime
4.Who are the intended readers of the text
A.Parents. B.Teenage players. C.Soccer spectators. D.Coaches.

In the future, when robots can be used both in homes and in other areas, they could improve the living standards of people. Many people burn their energy on their day-to-day tasks like cooking, cleaning after work, etc. When robots can complete such jobs,people can spend more time with their family and friends. Experts say that many major problems in the modern world are caused by miscommunication. When people have more time,they can talk freely to solve such issues and eventually create a happy society.
Robots can be used on certain jobs to avoid accidents caused by careless behaviour of some people. When robots are used on such work, it does not risk any human life due to accidents at the workplace. Human resources can be efficiently used by performing tasks which demand human skills like critical thinking and problem solving. Robots can be used on low-end jobs like moving heavy things and heavy weight lifting.
While some people talk about how robots can be useful to humans, others voice their concerns about reduction in human value and the creation of a lazy society due to heavy dependency on robots. When robots become cheaper to produce,employers may prefer to use more robots than humans. As the technology constantly improves the abilities of robots i it could weaken the value of humans. Many people may rely on robots heavily. Some may even develop the habit of using robots on tasks that they can easily do. This could create a lazy society.
As an aging society, Japan sees it as a must to build robots that take care of elderly people at their homes, because without them,the nation’s health care system can't cope. There will simply be too many elderly people to care for as the nation faces a decreasing birth rate, an aging population,and the loosening of family ties. However,many of Japan's elderly people would prefer human helpers rather than robots. Above all. Japan wants,if not “needs”,its dreams of robots in the home to come true because its immigration(移民) policy is anti-immigration.
In conclusion, robots can be used on anything that can eventually improve humans’ living standards but we can't depend on them too much. Robots can be used to help humans live in harmony and form a happy society.
1.According to the first paragraph, when robots can be used in homes, __________.
A.people will spend more time on their work
B.there would be more misunderstandings between humans
C.people's living standards will he improved
D.people may communicate more with robots than human beings
2.Compared with humans, robots are better at ___________.
A.problem solving B.communicating with others
C.critical thinking D.working safely
3.Some people worry that with more robots being used __________.
A.people will be unwilling to work hard
B.human resources won't be needed at the workplace
C.it will be harder to improve the abilities of robots
D.robots will be beyond our control
4.What can we infer from Paragraph 4
A.Japan will try to develop robots to be used in the home.
B.The robots are well received by elderly people in Japan.
C.The Japanese government encourages foreigners to move to Japan.
D.Most Japanese citizens are against robots in the home.
D
Claude Sammut, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of New South Wales in Australia, said it would soon be possible for robots to defeat the stars of the future.
For many years, Mr. Sammut has been a member of a project called RoboCup, where robots have been programmed to learn how to play football and compete against others in a football match.
As he explains, the robots are having difficulty in learning how to control the ball and move the ball on their own, but he is still full of confidence that one day in the future they will show the same skills as Wayne Rooney, who is one of the best football players in the world.
Mr Sammut also said, "In 1968. John McCarthy and Donald Michie made a bet with David Levy, who was then the chess champion in Scotland, that within 10 years a computer programme would be able to beat him. It took a little bit longer than 10 years (nearly 30 years) but eventually such programmes came into being."
"In the same spirit of a grand challenge, RohoCup aims to develop a team of robots that can defeat the world soccer champion team by the year 2050. To achieve this, or come even closer to the ambition, the robots will have to be able to sense and act in completely unstructured environments. This will require major advances in robots' perception(感知), decision-making, learning, and cooperative behaviours. Considering robots are integrated hardware and software systems, great advances will also be needed in sensors(传感器), energy storage, and materials."
1. The RoboCup is aimed to develop robots that know how to ________.
A. play computer football games
B. play football and win in real matches
C. understand the rules of the football game
D. improve the skills of real football players
2. What kind of difficulty are the robots facing in playing football
A. They can't run as fast as real people.
B. They can't recognize their partners accurately.
C. They can't control the ball well by themselves.
D. They can't pass the ball to their partners.
3. We can conclude from Mr Sammut's words that _____.
A. many parts of robots still need improving
B. robots would be smarter than human beings in the near future
C. robots have more ambitions than human beings
D. robots are able to sense and act in completely unstructed environments
4. What's the best title for this passage
A. Scientists' Wisdom in Designing Robot Football Players
B. Robot Football Players to Beat World's Best by 2050
C. Robot Football Players' Bright Future
D. Mr Sammut—the Father of Robot Football Players

第二节
答案：greater; achievement; is; on; as; studies; regularly; a; to bring; make
解析：本文属于说明,告诉我们当工作压力太大的时候,应该怎么做来合理释放压力。
①考查比较级。本空所填之词和比较级less 是并列关系,使用相同的比较级形式greater .
②考查名词。横线前面有介词of ,横线上要使用名词achievemnet 作为of的宾语。句意:首先处理重要的事情,那么你会有成就感。
③考查句子结构和主谓一致。本句中单个动名词短语“Leaving.....tomorrow”在句中做主语,谓语动词使用单数形式,所以使用is。
④考查固定搭配。形容词短语be focused on集中于....;很多人早晨对任务的注意力要比晚些时候的注意力更集中。
⑤考查固定搭配。短语as...as....和...一样;正是因为人们早晨的注意力更为集中,所以我们要早起,要和午饭之前一样的高效率。
⑥考查名词单复数。本句的谓语动词是show,说明主语是复数名词studies。
⑦考查副词。在英语副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词或动词,形容词通常在句中做定语或表语修饰名词。所以本句中使用副词regularly做状语修饰动词take short breaks。
⑧考查固定短语。介词短语for a while一会;本句是指通过锻炼或做一些你喜欢的事情,让你的身体和思维休息一会。
⑨考查形容词短语。形容词短语be likely to do sth 可能做某事;你就不太可能把工作带回家去做,因为你找到了你喜欢做的事情。
⑩考查祈使句。本剧中动词短语make sure 放在句首,构成祈使句。句意:要保证它是让你释放,而不是让你担忧的事。
