Both the father and daughter stood silently looking at each other until James finally walked over and hugged her. James only broke their embrace to look at his daughter and hold her face. “There were definitely lots of tears from myself, her brothers, and even a few bystanders,” said Amanda.James was a truck driver who spent a lot of time on the road, and Amanda split with him when Rory Beth was a baby. “It was hard to figure out how to make it work,” Amanda said. Amanda felt Rory Beth was now old enough to understand and to ask any questions she may have, so the reunion happened.The birthday surprise was on June 4, and the father and daughter had seen each other again since, even celebrating Father’s Day together.

Most recently, the world welcomed its first operational robot policeman.“Robocop”, the newest member of the Dubai police force, made the first public appearance on Sunday at the Fourth Gulf Information Security Expo and Conference, where it greeted guests. At about 70 inches tall and weighing nearly 220 pounds, Robocop seeks to engage with residents and tourists. Featuring an “emotion detector (探测器)”, the robot can recognize a person’s gestures and body language from about 5 feet away.Robocop’s skills don’t stop there—the emotionally intelligent bot can detect if a person ishappy, sad and even angry by studying his or her facial expression. And just like your human friends would do, if Robocop sees you’re unhappy, it will try to lift your spirits. More importantly, when it comes to fighting crime, the robot uses the Internet, artificial intelligence and other smart technologies to spot offenders using facial recognition. Its navigation (导航) skills grant it the ability to map out areas and travel on its own. Equipped with a built-in tablet, Robocop can communicate with people, speak six languages, respond to public inquiries, shake hands and even make military salutes.“With the aim to assist people on the streets,” said Brigadier-General Khalid Nasser A1 Razzouqi, director-general of smart services at Dubai Police, “the Robocop is the latest smart addition to the force and has been designed to help us fight crime recently, keep the city safe and improve happiness levels.”8．According to the text, Robocop can .A．use body language B．make people happyC．cook fast food D．ask questions in public9．What is the key part when Robocop makes a traveling route?A．Its navigation skills. B．Its built-in tablet.C．Its emotion detector. D．Its own ability to travel. 10．Robocop is designed with the original intention of .A．fighting crime B．acting as a doormanC．helping people on the streets D．communicating with people 11．What can be the best title for the text?A．Robocop has drawn great public attentionB．Robocop is playing the role as a policemanC．Robocop will help you anytime and anywhereD．Robocop is on the way to replacing the police officialConsumers who value their privacy (隐私) can limit what they post on Facebook and adjust settings on sites such as Instagram. But Internet service providers (ISPs) have the best advantage point on what consumers do online, and there’s much less you can do about it. After all, your ISP is the conduit (中转机构) for everything you read, view, or shop for while you’re accessing the web at home.New rules governing the way ISPs can use consumers’ data were adopted in 2016 andscheduled to go into effect this December. But they were rejected by Congress this spring That leaves the future of broadband (宽带) privacy practices unsettled. Consumers say they want more, not less, regulation of broadband privacy. In a nationally representative survey of 1,008 Americans conducted in early May for the Consumer Reports National Research Center, 80 Percent of respondents told us that ISPs should need to get permission before sharing consumers’ data. Six out of 10 didn’t think ISPs should be allowed to sell or share this information at all. Eighty-five percent of respondents said the data rightfully belongs to them.Under the recently defeated rules，broadband providers would have faced a new login requirement, forcing them to get permission before using data such as web browsing histories. Opponents of the rules said it was unfair to hold ISPs to stricter standards than Internet companies such as Amazon, Google, and Facebook, which are regulated more loosely.Going forward, state laws could pick up some of the conflict. By the end of May, more than a dozen states had proposed some laws mentioning the issue. Privacy protection bills were also being discussed in Washington, D．C．But privacy experts don’t expect much fr om the bills. After all, this is the same Congress that voted to roll back the existing privacy protections. 12．What do the new rules focus on?A．Keeping the Internet steady.B．Settling broadband practices.C．Forbidding ISPs to use consumers’ data.D．Prote cting Internet consumers’ privacy.13．What is the third paragraph mainly about?A．Regulations on ISPs using consumers’ data.B．A survey of privacy conducted by Congress.C．Consumers, opinions about broadband privacy.D．The argument about who owns consumers’ data.14．What does the underlined part “Opponents of the rules” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Broadband providers. B．Internet companies.C．Internet consumers. D．Survey representatives.15．What can we learn from the text?A．The future of broadband privacy will be clear.B．Internet companies rejected the rules together with ISPs.C．Privacy experts have a negative attitude to the privacy protection bills.D．Consumers will go on arguing with Congress about the Internet privacy.二、七选五We all know what it means when a nice envelope lands in your mailbox: Someone’s getting married, and they’re hoping that you can be there for the big day.
