What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves?Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them is worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of these could be the future of driving. There are several companies, for example, Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has got a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accident when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. If the tests are successful, these electric, self-driven cars could be available very soon. But how is it possible for a car to drive itself?Cars already have many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice other cars close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.
Scientists believe that with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, it is possible to create a safe self-driven car very soon.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to stop this. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.
19. The main purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A. get readers to pay attention to road safety
B. tell readers the danger of self-driven cars
C. ask readers to keep away from heavy traffic
D. make readers be interested in self-driven cars
20. The testing self-driven cars need ________ to run.
A. solar energy B. water
C. electricity D. coal
21. From the passage, we know that the testing self-driven cars can already ________.
A. stop any accident on the road
B. turn around when getting near other cars
C. control the speed in dangerous situations
D. park themselves with the help of the drivers
22. Which is NOT helpful to make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?

What do you think of a “talking kitchen”?A French Digital(数码)Kitchen has been developed at Newcastle University in the UK. It teaches students how to cook French food and speak French at the same time. For the first time, students can learn the language by the following cooking steps.
All grammar and ____23____ have been carefully chosen to make sure the users can understand French well. After learning for some time, the users can test themselves by doing a short test on the computer.
The kitchen project was started by professor Paul Seedhouse. He became interested in the idea after he visited another kind of talking kitchen. He said, “The purpose of the French Digital Kitchen is to make learning a language more interesting and more educational. ”
How does the kitchen work?There is a computer in the kitchen. With this computer, the users can first choose a French recipe that they want to follow. Using the information in the computer, the kitchen starts to guide the users how to make a French dish. If you follow the instructions on the computer, it moves on to the next. If you go wrong, the programme goes back and repeats the recipe or information. At any time, the users can ask the kitchen to repeat the recipe or any information.
The new kitchen can be used in schools, universities and even people's homes. The researchers can also be developing the European Digital Kitchen, for the next three years.

Many years ago,people depended on the sun,the moon and stars to find their way around. Later,the compass was introduced. And now,we have satnav(卫星导航)systems to guide us.
A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user's location. They send information to the receiver,such as a smart phone,to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning System(GPS),which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia's Global Navigation (导航) Satellite System(GLONASS),the European Union's Galileo and China's own satellite navigation system—BeiDou.
On October 14,2017,an ARJ21-700 plane,which was the first plane made in China,with the BeiDou navigation system,successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad,according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000,the BeiDou navigation system has seen an increasing number of applications linked to everyday life,from shared bikes to farming. For example,smart locks with BeiDou chips make it easier to find a bike. Farmers can use BeiDou to help plow(犁)the soil and sow seeds. BeiDou's farming applications have spread to most parts of China.
With its many uses,the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative(一带一路).“To date,the BeiDou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific area”,said the main designer of the BeiDou system.
Today,there are more than 20 BeiDou satellites above the earth,and China plans to send even more this year to expand(扩展)the BeiDou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative. As BeiDou expands abroad,it will be increasingly popular in the logistics(物流)industry.
27. What is the purpose of the first three paragraphs?
A To tell us something about GPS.
B. To show us the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were made.
D. To tell us about some satnav systems and how they work.
28. The underlined phrase “the system” refers to “______”.
A. the Global Positioning System
B the Beidou navigation system
C. the European Union's Galileo
D. Russia's Global Navigation Satellite System
29. According to the article,the BeiDou navigation system is already widely used ______.
A. to help farmers with farming
B. to improve the speed of networks
C. in the international logistics industry
D. in the whole Asia-Pacific area
30. The writer thinks the future of the BeiDou system is ______.
A. worrying B. doubtful

PowerPoint Presentations(PPT)are taking the place of writing on the blackboard with chalk. Someday, will robots take the place of human teachers?
In Japan, a robot is going to enter classrooms to help teachers. Last week the Japanese company Honda Motor Co. showed the public its robot at a Tokyo museum. The robot's name is Asimo. Students will see Asimo in science classes and learn the wonders of science.
Asimo is 130 centimeters tall with a round head. It can jog, walk up stairs and wave. It can also avoid things on its way and have simple talks with you. Asimo is an experienced worker for humans. It has worked as a guide in showrooms. But this will be the first time it works as a teaching assistant in classrooms and in formal teaching!
How will Asimo help in class?A teacher explained the way Asimo worked to students in last week's show. Asimo has sensors(感应器)inside its body to keep its balance.
The smart Asimo tilted(倾斜)its body when it stood on a shaking platform(平台). Asimo kept its balance. But a wooden person beside Asimo fell(See the above picture).
When you walk, you pass your weight from the heel to the toe. The Japanese teacher explained this with Asimo at the museum. He moved the robot in slow move. Asimo made learning science more interesting for students!
Asimo will soon help teach thousands of primary students and junior high schools in two Japanese cities. Hopefully, robot teachers will arrive in our classrooms in China one day.

Many years ago,people depended on the sun,the moon and stars to find their way around. Later,the compass was introduced. And now,we have satnav(卫星导航)systems to guide us.
A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user's location. They send information to the receiver,such as a smart phone,to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning System(GPS),which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia's Global Navigation (导航) Satellite System(GLONASS),the European Union's Galileo and China's own satellite navigation system—BeiDou.
On October 14,2017,an ARJ21-700 plane,which was the first plane made in China,with the BeiDou navigation system,successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad,according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000,the BeiDou navigation system has seen an increasing number of applications linked to everyday life,from shared bikes to farming. For example,smart locks with BeiDou chips make it easier to find a bike. Farmers can use BeiDou to help plow(犁)the soil and sow seeds. BeiDou's farming applications have spread to most parts of China.
With its many uses,the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative(一带一路).“To date,the BeiDou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific area”,said the main designer of the BeiDou system.
Today,there are more than 20 BeiDou satellites above the earth,and China plans to send even more this year to expand(扩展)the BeiDou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative. As BeiDou expands abroad,it will be increasingly popular in the logistics(物流)industry.
27. What is the purpose of the first three paragraphs?
A. To tell us something about GPS.
B. To show us the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were made.
D. To tell us about some satnav systems and how they work.
28. The underlined phrase “the system” refers to “______”.
A. the Global Positioning System
B. the Beidou navigation system
C. the European Union's Galileo
D. Russia's Global Navigation Satellite System
29. According to the article,the BeiDou navigation system is already widely used ______.
A. to help farmers with farming
B. to improve the speed of networks
C. in the international logistics industry
D. in the whole Asia-Pacific area
30. The writer thinks the future of the BeiDou system is ______.
A. worrying B. doubtful
C. hopeful D. surprising

PowerPoint Presentations(PPT)are taking the place of writing on the blackboard with chalk. Someday, will robots take the place of human teachers?
In Japan, a robot is going to enter classrooms to help teachers. Last week the Japanese company Honda Motor Co. showed the public its robot at a Tokyo museum. The robot's name is Asimo. Students will see Asimo in science classes and learn the wonders of science.
Asimo is 130 centimeters tall with a round head. It can jog, walk up stairs and wave. It can also avoid things on its way and have simple talks with you. Asimo is an experienced worker for humans. It has worked as a guide in showrooms. But this will be the first time it works as a teaching assistant in classrooms and in formal teaching!
How will Asimo help in class?A teacher explained the way Asimo worked to students in last week's show. Asimo has sensors(感应器)inside its body to keep its balance.
The smart Asimo tilted(倾斜)its body when it stood on a shaking platform(平台). Asimo kept its balance. But a wooden person beside Asimo fell(See the above picture).
When you walk, you pass your weight from the heel to the toe. The Japanese teacher explained this with Asimo at the museum. He moved the robot in slow move. Asimo made learning science more interesting for students!
Asimo will soon help teach thousands of primary students and junior high schools in two Japanese cities. Hopefully, robot teachers will arrive in our classrooms in China one day.

【答案】Dear Editor,
I am writing to tell you about the survey I've made on “Using paper cards or e-cards?” in our class.
About 30% of the students want to use paper cards. First of all, they think paper cards are made by hand and they can express people's feelings. Second, paper cards are easy to take and can be kept for long. Third, people can read them without computers.
However, around 70% of the students prefer to use e-cards. For one thing, e-cards can carry lots of information and people can send them quickly. For another thing, using e-cards can save paper so that our environment can be protected well. What's more, people can make various designs they like.
In my opinion, we should try our best to use e-cards. They can not only pass our love quickly and conveniently but also protect our earth.
Yours sincerely,
Wang Qiang
