Some scientists say that self-driving or driverless cars（无人驾驶汽车）may hit the road within 15 years, and it is possible that driving may become unnecessary, or more relaxing and enjoyable.Companies like Google, Baidu, Apple and Alibaba are working on driverless cars. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driving cars could be put into use very soon. This kind of cars may change the way we live in the future. All you have to do is typing in your address!According to Baidu, the driverless technology has the following four advantages. Firstly, driverless cars are actually safer. In China, there are mom than 500 deaths caused by accidents. With driverless cars, the number will decrease by 100 times. Secondly, driverless cars are more efficient(有效的）than manned cars. Thirdly, driverless cars follow the traffic rules. Therefore, traffic controlling will be easier. At last, the cost of transportation will be reduced as the labor cost becomes less.There are many different technologies needed to make a successful self-driving car. The most difficult technologies of all, environmental perception（感知）,behavior prediction, planning control, HD mapping, and exact GPS. 1．According to some scientists, driverless cars may make driving become _____________.A．necessary B．difficult C．boring D．enjoyable2．The third paragraph mainly talks about the ___________ of driverless cars.A．instructions B．standards C．advantages D．theories3．What can we learn from the passage?A．Driverless cars may not follow the traffic rules.B．The technologies for driverless cars haven't yet well developed.C．The communication between the car and a man is perfect.D．Driverless cars will have more accidents than man-controlled cats.B14、Would you like to have an electric car? We will see this kind of cars soon in America. These quiet, clean cars run on electricity. Carmakers will start selling electric cars in 2011.The world’s p opulation will jump from 6.8 billion to 9 billion by 2050. The need for cars will jump with it. But the oil(石油) won’t keep up with the number of cars on the road. So the price of oil will go up.Electric cars aren’t perfect just yet. It can take eight hour s to charge(充电) a car for only 100 miles of driving. And the distance(路程) that cars can go depends on driving conditions(条件). How far it travels depends on the weather and traffic.Price is a problem, too. Electric models cost much more than oil-powered cars. The good news is that electric-car technology is getting better. As it does, the prices of this kind of cars are dropping.To charge the car, the US Department of Energy is paying for at least 10,000 charging stations around the country. Private businesses are also getting ready for it. It will cost about $3 for each charge.Carmakers are coming up with other ways to make the car cleaner and cheaper. Cars may run on clean diesel(柴油). So who knows what will power the car you may be driving in 10 years? The chances are that it will be something that’s clean and easy.1．The electric cars are ________.A．large and noisyB．large and quietC．clean and quiet2．Paragraph Two mainly tells us the reason why ________.A．electric cars appearB．the population is growingC．the oil price goes up3．How far the electric car travels depends on the ________.A．water and weatherB．weather and trafficC．drivers and oil4．Why aren’t the electric cars perfect?A．The cars don’t look nice and they’re slow.B．The cars can’t be driven fast and they’re dangerous.C．The cars take a long time to be charged and they cost too much.5．From the passage we know that ________________.A．electric cars will be more expensiveB．nobody knows what will power the cars in 10 yearsC．electric cars will be used by most people in 10 yearsC15、Have you ever wanted to grow your own food inside your home? Scientists in Finland have developed a device(设备) that may do just that.Unlike a usual vegetable garden, it doesn’t need soil. But, the small device, called the Cell Pod, grows plant cells which are safe to eat in the home.Lauri Reuter, a biologist, says that instead of using the complete plant as food, scientists take only a small part ofit–cells–and grow them in a bio-reactor(生物反应器). These plants have much of the same nutritional(营养的) value that a real plant has. The plant cells which are safe to eat, once fully grown, do not look very good. The Finnish researcherssay they also need to improve the taste. However, the Cell Pod can provide important things that help your body to be healthy.Lauri Reuter adds that the new technology will not be instead of fields for growing fruits and vegetables. However, the device could help save natural resources. All you would need to do is add the seed culture(培养物) to the device, give it water, sit back and then wait.

If your answer is "no," then you are probably a millennial. Millennials are the new generation(代) of young Americans. They were born between 1982 and 1992. There are 33 million of them, and they are just starting to enter the workforce(劳动力). Many experts(专家) believe that millennials are different from young Americans of past generations. They also believe that millennials will change the workforce in important ways.How are millennials different? They are the first generation born in the computer age. The Internet has always been a part of their lives. They spend about 16 hours a week on the Internet, and this doesn't include e-mail. And they spend 72 hours a week using other electronic media(媒体), including mobile phones and video games. They are "native speakers" of the language of the computer age. People who were born earlier will never be native speakers of that language. Why not? They did not grow up "speaking" it.How will millennials change the workforce? To answer that question, it is important to understand how themillennials use the Internet. They use the Internet to communicate. They visit websites such as FaceBook and MySpace every day. They share(分享) ideas, music, information, games, and friendships with people all over the world. When they start working, they will want to share their work and ideas with others.It is also important to understand the way millennials grew up. Their parents and teachers gave them a lot of attention. They taught them that their opinions were valuable(有价值的). As a result, many millennials are very confident. At work, they will expect their co-workers and bosses to listen to their opinions.Millennials also grew up with lots of structure in their lives. Many of them went to school at the age of two or three and played on sports teams. At work, they will expect the rules to be clear. They will also expect a strong but fair boss, like a coach on a sports team. They will follow the person in charge(主管) if he or she is fair. But they will not follow an unfair boss. They will also expect their work to be fun and creative, similar to their experiences on a sports team.These are a few of the changes that experts believe that millennials will bring to the American workforce. But the world is changing very fast. There will probably be more changes that are difficult to imagine today.1．According to the first paragraph of the passage, which of the following in NOT true?A．Millennials belong to a new generation.B．Millennials were born about ten years ago.C．Millennials are entering the workforce.D．Millennials know little about the world before the Internet.2．Which is the main reason that makes the experts believe milennials are different from young Americans of past generations?A．Millennials can speak a better native language.B．Millennials grow up with computers and the Internet.C．Millennials use mobile phones and e-mails often.D．Millennials spend long hours playing video games.3．Why do the Millennials expect to share their work and ideas with others?A．Because they know how to use the Internet to make new friends.B．Because they understand how to communicate with new friends.C．Because they grow up sharing ideas, music, information with others by the Internet.D．Because the Internet can provide all the information they need.4．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A．Millennials grow up with more attention from their teachers and parents.B．Many millennials are showing more confidence than the others at work.C．Many millennials give more valuable opinions to their co-workers and bosses.D．Many of the millennials have had fun and creative experience when they are on sports teams.5．From the passage we know that ________.A．the number of the millennials had come to 33 million by the end of 1982B．most of the millennials learn their native computer languages in schoolsC．millennials require their bosses to be healthier and the rules clearer at workD．more changes will probably be brought to the American workforce by millennialsE17、For many kids in Africa，the colorful PlayPump(踏水车）is the first playground thing they have ever seen. When the children give it a push and jump in for their first ride，smiles of wonder appears on their faces.The fun of going round and round in a circle is just part of the wonder. The wonderful invention doesn’t only change the kids’ play time，but also makes a big difference to the people’s lives.As the merry-go-round starts，itpumps(泵送）clean water up from deep underground and keeps it in a huge tank(桶）. People are welcomed to come and help themselves to get the water for free. They are very happy these days.In the countryside of Africa，very few people could drink clean water. They don’t have machines that ca n get water in their homes. Instead，they often walk a long way to carry water back.Patricia Molope，a fifteen-year-old girl，explains that before her village in South Africa got a PlayPump，people would pay a taxi driver to take them to a well far from t heir homes. “ Sometimes the taxi drivers were so busy that we would have to stop taking showers in order to save water. It was so far to walk there，but at present we have our own clean water in the village，and the life is better，too.”The hard job of carrying water usually is done by women and girls. Carrying water for miles and hours each day is such a heavy job that it sometimes prevents girls from being able to go to school.Thanks to the PlayPump，getting water is quicker and easier-----and even boys join in. The pumps have become a new activity. Kids and adults seem to love playing with them while collecting water.A boy named Khumalo，twelve years old，says，“ I have seen many kinds of water pumps，but have never seen one that can keep water. When I grow up，I want to be an inventor so I can also invent clever things like the PlayPump that will help my country.”So far，more than 800 PlayPumps are being operated in schools and neighborhoods in four African countries，providing water for almost two million people.1．To get water from a PlayPump，people need to ______________.A．walk for a long way B．push it firstC．make it in a circle D．use a big tank2．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to____________A．pump B．merry-go-roundC．PlayPump D．underground3．For Patricia Molope，getting water used to be hard because____________A．She didn’t know how to use a PlayPump.B．She had no money to pay a taxi driver.C．The only place to get water was far away from home.D．There was not enough water in the well.4．Which of the following is NOT TRUE about PlayPump?A．People need to pay for the clean water from PlayPump.B．Both children and parents enjoy the ride on PlayPump.C．PlayPump makes the life of the Africans much easier.D．About two million Africans are using the water from PlayPump.5．What is the main idea of the story?A．PlayPump can bring people together.B．PlayPump helps turn work into play.C．Every country in the world is thirsty.D．PlayPump is a great invention in the world.F18、It's Saturday morning and Tony's sitting at the kitchen table, staring（凝视）into space and playing with a piece of bread.
