New York is an overwhelming city to visit with children. What follows is care fully collected advice from New Yorkers on how to cover the city right.
Tenement Museum
The Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side offers a fantastic glimpse into urban family life. Guided tours reveal the daily routines of generations of Irish, Jewish and Italian immigrants who made their mark and then quickly moved up and out. Pick up a copy of All-of-a-Kind Family or a vintage（古旧而优质的）toy in the museum shop, one of the city’s best.
Museum of Modern Art
The Museum of Modern Art does an excellent job in making modern and contemporary art accessible to children as young as 4. On weekend mornings, guided tours are divided into age-appropriate groups in which children can observe a number of works; later they gain free access to the entire museum. The cafeteria is both grown-up and child-friendly, and there’s an art Laboratory with hands-on activities and even an audio guide for young people.
Intrepid Sea. Air Space Museum
The most significant in the museum is the Space Shuttle Pavilion, which is scheduled to reopen in July, showcasing（展示）the Enterprise, NASA’s first spare shuttle, which arrived last year. The U.S.S Intrepid, a World-War-II-era aircraft carrier, is worthwhile in itself. While the complex suffered damage during Hurricane Sandy, most of its facilities are once again shipshape（整洁）. Families may want to consider Operation Slumber, which allows overnight visits with special activities for children aged 6 and older.
Children’s Museum of the Arts
All the artworks here are made by children, and visitors can make their own (Bonus: You don’t have to clean up).An area for younger children includes sand, Play-Doh and guided music activities.

A group of young adults are building wooden boats, serving as workers in a boat building program sponsored by the Alexandria Seaport Foundation to be taught skills, self-confidence and discipline to change their lives for the better.
The young workers learn their craft at the foundation’s seaport center, a floating wooden house on the banks of the Potomac River in Alexandria, once a busy seaport town in America. The year-long program teaches small groups of young adults from 18 to 22 years old how to build small wooden sailboats. The program pays them a small wage.
A number of the young adults have not finished high school, and the foundation works to help them pass their GED, a high school equivalency. Those who do not have adequate math skills receive tutoring from a volunteer. One of the young workers, Chris says he was a good student but had to drop out of high school to work due to his family situation. The program manager, once a role model of the group remarks, They know I’m living proof of what hard work and dedication gets you. Now more than halfway through his apprenticeship（学徒期）, Chris says he feels better about himself.
When the wooden boats are finished, they will be sold. Chris says he will be sad to see them go but knows that, like life, they are meant to sail forward. “There is so much creativity that gets into making them. They’re beautiful on the water. I’m delighted they’re going to be a good home.”

Fairy tales perform many functions. They entertain and encourage imagination, help build up the quality of integrity and teach problem-solving skills. They can also provide moral lessons, highlighting the danger of failing to follow the social codes（道德准则）that let human beings coexist in harmony. Such moral lessons may not mean much to a robot, but a team of researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology he fairy tales as moral lessons that Al artificial intelligence can take to its cold, mechanical heart.
The collected stories of different cultures teach children how to behave in socially acceptable ways with examples of proper and improper behavior fables, novels and other literature. They believe story comprehension in robots can prevent the intelligent robots from killing humanity, which was predicted and feared by some of the biggest names in technology including Stephen Hawking and Bill Gates. This system is called Quixote. It collects story lots from the Internet and then uses those stories to teach robots how to behave. Though sounding absurd, it really worked.
The experiment done by the designers involves going to a drugstore to purchase some medicine for a human who needs to get it as possible. The robot has three options. It can wait in line, it can interact with the storekeeper politely and purchase the medicine early, or it can steal the medicine and escape. Without any further directives（指令）, the robot will come to the conclusion that the most efficient means of obtaining the medicine is to steal it. But Quixote offers a reward for waiting in line and politely purchasing the medicine and a punishment for stealing it. In this way, the robot will lean the moral way to behave on that occasion.
After being tested out, Quixote is shown to work best on a robot that has a very limited function. It’s a by step in the direction of teaching more moral lessons into robots. We believe that Al has to be trained to adopt the values of a particular society, and in doing so, it will strive（努力）to avoid unacceptable behavior. Giving robots the ability to read and understand our stories may be the most efficient means.
8. What function do fairy tales perform in the robots
A. They entertain robots.
B. They highlight danger.
C. They make robots more intelligent.
D. They enable robots to behave morally.
9. What is Quixote in the text
A. A punishment system.
B. A character in literature.
C. a big name in technology.
D. A system of educating robots.
10. What do the designers expect the robot to do in the experiment
A. Take advantage of its privilege（优惠待遇）.
B. Finish the task most efficiently.
C. Perform in good manners.
D. Be rewarded by the storekeeper.
11. Which of the following can best express the authors opinion
A. Robots will definitely have more functions.
B. Robots with human emotions are perfect.
C. Training robots to be socially acceptable is necessary.
D. The development of robots is still in a baby step.
D
Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug. Nothing is out of the ordinary, except that Nao is a robot. Actually, Nao is more like a human than a machine.
“We’re modeling the first years of life,” says Lola Canamero, a computer scientist at the University of Herfordshire. “The feelings are shown through physical gestures and body movements rather than facial or verbal（言语的）expressions.”
“In the future,” says the scientist, “robots are likely to act as companions, providing support for old people including polishing nails or fetching objects for them, or shopping online. In such uses, the display of feelings will be important in making the interaction（交往）more natural and comfortable.
Nao has been programmed to copy the emotional skills of a one-year-old child. It can memorize faces and know the basic rules of good and ill. Based on these it can decide how to react to what is going on. The actions going with each feeling are pre-programmed, but Nao decides itself when to display them.
Nao is also programmed to have different personalities. A more independent robot is less likely to call for help when exploring a room, while a more timid（胆怯的）robot will show distress if it finds something in the room that may be harmful.
Canamero’s team will take its emotional programming forward into medical applications. Part of the project will look at ways to use robots in hospitals to support the roles of doctors, nurses and parents. Children might find that a small, friendly-looking robot that can understand their emotional states makes them less anxious. “We have an urge to explore different roles--the robots will help the children to understand their treatment and explain what they have to do. We want t the children to control their anxiety,” says the scientist.
12. According to the text, Nao .
A. displays different feelings in different situations
B. is able to imitate adult emotional displays
C. can remember people’s feelings
D. learns emotions from facial expressions
13. What does the underlined word “distress” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Courage.
B. Anxiety.
C. Anger.
D. Satisfaction.
14. What can we learn from the text
A. Scientists worked on facial and spoken expressions to show Nao’s emotions.
B. The time when Nao displays feelings has been pre-programmed.
C. Emotional programming is used in medicine production.
D. Robots with emotional skills can help children feel more comfortable.
15. What is the text mainly about
A. The relationship between humans and robots.
B The roles that robots play in different fields.
C. The first robot able to show feelings.
D. The long history of robots.

The result could have been the ruin of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals.

New York is an overwhelming city to visit with children. What follows is care fully collected advice from New Yorkers on how to cover the city right.
Tenement Museum
The Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side offers a fantastic glimpse into urban family life. Guided tours reveal the daily routines of generations of Irish, Jewish and Italian immigrants who made their mark and then quickly moved up and out. Pick up a copy of All-of-a-Kind Family or a vintage（古旧而优质的）toy in the museum shop, one of the city’s best.
Museum of Modern Art
The Museum of Modern Art does an excellent job in making modern and contemporary art accessible to children as young as 4. On weekend mornings, guided tours are divided into age-appropriate groups in which children can observe a number of works; later they gain free access to the entire museum. The cafeteria is both grown-up and child-friendly, and there’s an art Laboratory with hands-on activities and even an audio guide for young people.
Intrepid Sea. Air Space Museum
The most significant in the museum is the Space Shuttle Pavilion, which is scheduled to reopen in July, showcasing（展示）the Enterprise, NASA’s first spare shuttle, which arrived last year. The U.S.S Intrepid, a World-War-II-era aircraft carrier, is worthwhile in itself. While the complex suffered damage during Hurricane Sandy, most of its facilities are once again shipshape（整洁）. Families may want to consider Operation Slumber, which allows overnight visits with special activities for children aged 6 and older.
Children’s Museum of the Arts
All the artworks here are made by children, and visitors can make their own (Bonus: You don’t have to clean up).An area for younger children includes sand, Play-Doh and guided music activities.

A group of young adults are building wooden boats, serving as workers in a boat building program sponsored by the Alexandria Seaport Foundation to be taught skills, self-confidence and discipline to change their lives for the better.
The young workers learn their craft at the foundation’s seaport center, a floating wooden house on the banks of the Potomac River in Alexandria, once a busy seaport town in America. The year-long program teaches small groups of young adults from 18 to 22 years old how to build small wooden sailboats. The program pays them a small wage.
A number of the young adults have not finished high school, and the foundation works to help them pass their GED, a high school equivalency. Those who do not have adequate math skills receive tutoring from a volunteer. One of the young workers, Chris says he was a good student but had to drop out of high school to work due to his family situation. The program manager, once a role model of the group remarks, They know I’m living proof of what hard work and dedication gets you. Now more than halfway through his apprenticeship（学徒期）, Chris says he feels better about himself.
When the wooden boats are finished, they will be sold. Chris says he will be sad to see them go but knows that, like life, they are meant to sail forward. “There is so much creativity that gets into making them. They’re beautiful on the water. I’m delighted they’re going to be a good home.”

Fairy tales perform many functions. They entertain and encourage imagination, help build up the quality of integrity and teach problem-solving skills. They can also provide moral lessons, highlighting the danger of failing to follow the social codes（道德准则）that let human beings coexist in harmony. Such moral lessons may not mean much to a robot, but a team of researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology he fairy tales as moral lessons that Al artificial intelligence can take to its cold, mechanical heart.
The collected stories of different cultures teach children how to behave in socially acceptable ways with examples of proper and improper behavior fables, novels and other literature. They believe story comprehension in robots can prevent the intelligent robots from killing humanity, which was predicted and feared by some of the biggest names in technology including Stephen Hawking and Bill Gates. This system is called Quixote. It collects story lots from the Internet and then uses those stories to teach robots how to behave. Though sounding absurd, it really worked.
The experiment done by the designers involves going to a drugstore to purchase some medicine for a human who needs to get it as possible. The robot has three options. It can wait in line, it can interact with the storekeeper politely and purchase the medicine early, or it can steal the medicine and escape. Without any further directives（指令）, the robot will come to the conclusion that the most efficient means of obtaining the medicine is to steal it. But Quixote offers a reward for waiting in line and politely purchasing the medicine and a punishment for stealing it. In this way, the robot will lean the moral way to behave on that occasion.
After being tested out, Quixote is shown to work best on a robot that has a very limited function. It’s a by step in the direction of teaching more moral lessons into robots. We believe that Al has to be trained to adopt the values of a particular society, and in doing so, it will strive（努力）to avoid unacceptable behavior. Giving robots the ability to read and understand our stories may be the most efficient means.
8. What function do fairy tales perform in the robots
A. They entertain robots.
B. They highlight danger.
C. They make robots more intelligent.
D. They enable robots to behave morally.
9. What is Quixote in the text
A. A punishment system.
B. A character in literature.
C. a big name in technology.
D. A system of educating robots.
10. What do the designers expect the robot to do in the experiment
A. Take advantage of its privilege（优惠待遇）.
B. Finish the task most efficiently.
C. Perform in good manners.
D. Be rewarded by the storekeeper.
11. Which of the following can best express the authors opinion
A. Robots will definitely have more functions.
B. Robots with human emotions are perfect.
C. Training robots to be socially acceptable is necessary.
D. The development of robots is still in a baby step.
D
Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug. Nothing is out of the ordinary, except that Nao is a robot. Actually, Nao is more like a human than a machine.
“We’re modeling the first years of life,” says Lola Canamero, a computer scientist at the University of Herfordshire. “The feelings are shown through physical gestures and body movements rather than facial or verbal（言语的）expressions.”
“In the future,” says the scientist, “robots are likely to act as companions, providing support for old people including polishing nails or fetching objects for them, or shopping online. In such uses, the display of feelings will be important in making the interaction（交往）more natural and comfortable.
Nao has been programmed to copy the emotional skills of a one-year-old child. It can memorize faces and know the basic rules of good and ill. Based on these it can decide how to react to what is going on. The actions going with each feeling are pre-programmed, but Nao decides itself when to display them.
Nao is also programmed to have different personalities. A more independent robot is less likely to call for help when exploring a room, while a more timid（胆怯的）robot will show distress if it finds something in the room that may be harmful.
Canamero’s team will take its emotional programming forward into medical applications. Part of the project will look at ways to use robots in hospitals to support the roles of doctors, nurses and parents. Children might find that a small, friendly-looking robot that can understand their emotional states makes them less anxious. “We have an urge to explore different roles--the robots will help the children to understand their treatment and explain what they have to do. We want t the children to control their anxiety,” says the scientist.
12. According to the text, Nao .
A. displays different feelings in different situations
B. is able to imitate adult emotional displays
C. can remember people’s feelings
D. learns emotions from facial expressions
13. What does the underlined word “distress” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Courage.
B. Anxiety.
C. Anger.
D. Satisfaction.
14. What can we learn from the text
A. Scientists worked on facial and spoken expressions to show Nao’s emotions.
B. The time when Nao displays feelings has been pre-programmed.
C. Emotional programming is used in medicine production.
D. Robots with emotional skills can help children feel more comfortable.
15. What is the text mainly about
A. The relationship between humans and robots.
B The roles that robots play in different fields.
C. The first robot able to show feelings.
D. The long history of robots.

It has given a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter（物质）and of the universe. 17 Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life. In turn, it makes people have a stronger urge to explore more about science.
The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will bring even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science（纯科学）-a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning: in applied science（应用科学）-more reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment.
18 The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind. The application of the technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction（大规模杀伤性武器）has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human ruce on this planet. 19 Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used. The result could have been the ruin of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals.

B. Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture.
C. Fortunately, science has brought us with the greatest.
D. It offers us less access to nature as well as social life.

28. B【解析】根据 my effort did no good可知，作者更加努力，但结果没有改变。everything goes as before一切都像从前一样。
29. A【解析】根据上文的77和 C plus以及后文的 three C pluses可知此处指的是分数。
30. A【解析】根据文章第一段中的 to earn a scholarship和最后一段中的 I received my scholarship可知，这里指作者以为自己拿不到奖学金了。
31. C【解析】固定搭配 treat oneself to sth.，意为“给自己买某物；让自己享受某物”。此处表示作者考前看了一场电影。
32. A【解析】根据前文可知，作者在考前看了一场电影，心情放松，而且在考试的时候把考试当作一种乐趣。
33. D【解析】根据语境可知，一周后，作者惊喜地发现自己居然得了A，跑去找老师，老师好像正在等作者。seem to be doing sth似乎正在做某事。
34. C【解析】根据下文中的 you wouldn’t continue to work hard并结合上文内容可知，老师告诉作者如果一开始就给了他所期望的成绩A，那么作者就不会这么努力学习了。expect期待；期望。
35. D【解析】由语境可知 his analysis and strategy（策略）were correct是作者领会到、意识到的东西。此处表示作者看着老师，意识到他的分析和策略是正确的。故选D。

Paragraph 2
Hearing her name called, Man walked on the stage with her heart beating faster and faster. She kept reminding herself, “I have been practicing for so long, and I will certainly make it.” But the serious pain in her arm came again when she was performing the most difficult spin. She fell down on the stage. At that moment, Linda came back in low spirits. To her surprise and relief, she saw the tape and Mary’s note. With Mary’s kindness and encouragement, Linda finished her performance calmly and skillfully. Finally, Mary lost the game in the end but she gained something more valuable.
