We see aliens（外星人）in books and movies. They look very strange. But are there real aliens in space?
Stephen Hawking thinks aliens are dangerous. Stephen Hawking was a scientist from Britain. He thinks there must be aliens in space. He says that people should not look for aliens because they are dangerous. In a British TV program, Hawking told people his ideas about aliens.
Are there living beings (生物) anywhere other than on the earth? What could they look like? You could have your own ideas. Do they have two heads? Speak in a strange language? The movie CJ7 has lots of ideas about aliens. It is about a dog from space. CJ7 was on in 2008. Its language is Chinese.
17-year-old girl Xie Teng from Jiangsu thinks there must be aliens in space and that they must have been to the earth many times. She thinks aliens stop at the earth because they must need a rest or they might be curious (好奇的) about our earth, just as humans want to know more about outerspace. She thinks maybe we can make friends with aliens. "Although we are not able to talk with each other, we can communicate through body language or music. " She also thinks friendly contact (接触) with aliens can promote (促进) culture exchange between planets.
New National Geographic Survey shows one-third of Americans believe in UFOs. Even 79 percent of the people are almost sure that some mysteries about aliens are probably covered by the White House. And over ten percent of them say thar they have ever seen spaceship of aliens in person.

读下面关于在火星上的生活的文章，然后回答文章后的问题，正确的答案写T，错误的答案写F。
People think that we will have no places to live in the future. Don't worry. Some scientists believe that we will live on Mars by the year 2100. Here is what life will be like on Mars in 2100.
Transport（交通）will be much better. It takes months to get to Mars today. But in 2100, it might take us two or three days to get to Mars.
Because no one can live without food, water or air, scientists will develop（发展）plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will make the food and oxygen（氧气）that we need. However, can these plants make water for us? There is still no answer now.
Life on Mars will be better than that on Earth in many ways. People will live in a large building with 10 bedrooms. And robots will do the hard work, so we will have a lot of free time. There will be no schools on Mars. Every student will have a computer to study at home. It's really interesting, isn't it?
( )6. People will live on Mars by the year 2200 according to the passage.

读下面有关未来机器人的文章，在每个标题下做简短的笔记。
When we watch movies about the future, we sometimes see robots. They are usually just like human servants. They help with the housework and do jobs like working in dirty or dangerous places.
Today there are already robots working in factories. For example, they can help to build cars, and they do simple jobs over and over again. Fewer people will do such jobs in the future because they are boring, but robots will never get bored.
Some scientists believe that there will be more robots in the future. However, they agree it may take hundreds of years. Scientists are now trying to make robots look like humans and do the same things as us. Some robots in Japan can even walk and dance. These kinds of robots are fun to watch. But scientist James White thinks that it will be difficult for a robot to do the same things as a person. For example, it's easy for children to wake up and know where they are. Mr. White thinks that robots won't be able to do this, but some scientists disagree. They think that robots will even be able to talk like humans in 25 to 50 years.
New robots will have many different shapes. Some will look like humans, and others might look like snakes. If buildings fall down with people inside, snake robots will be able to help look for people under the buildings. That may not seem possible now, but computers and rockets seemed impossible 100 years ago. We never know what will happen in the future!
11. The general introduction of the topic is:
____________________________________________________________
12. The robots in Japan can:
____________________________________________________________
13. The time when robots will talk like humans is:

14. The thing that snake robots can do if buildings fall down is:

Scientists will put some robot fish into the sea near Spain this year. 16 If the robot fish can manage to finish their work, scientists hope the fish will be used in rivers, lakes and seas around the world.
The robot fish are about l.5 meters long. 17 They can find the pollution in the water, and then the robot fish will eat part of it.
Unlike other robots, they don't need to be operated (操作) by people far away. 18 They can "swim" in the sea freely and send back information to people on the bank. When their batteries run down, they'll go back to the bank themselves.
There are five robot fish. 19 They're part of a three-year plan of the engineering company BMT Group and University of Essex in southeastern England.
"We hope the robot fish can find the changes that have taken place in the sea water and send back the information to people," said Professor Hu of University of Essex. His team is developing the robot fish.

A. The robots all have an eight-hour battery (电池).
B. Each costs about 29,000 dollars.
C. These robot fish will help people find out the pollution in the water.
D. There'll be a detector (探测器) in their bodies.
