When I was five or six years old,I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other
parts of the world.I would say to myself,“When I grow up,when I can get rich,I will save kids all over the
world.”
At 17,I started my career here in America,and by the age of 18,I started my first charity organization.I
went on to team up with other organizations in the following years,and met,helped,and even lost some of
the most beautiful souls,from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia (白血
病),whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors,to my grandmother,who lost her battle with
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂cancer in 2012,which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel
Foundation(CLF).We’re all human.And we all just want a chance: a chance at life,a chance in education,a
chance at a future,really.And at CLF,our mission is to impact as many lives as possible,but it starts with
just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work.The truth is,you don’t have to be rich to help
others.You don’t need to be famous.You don’t even have to be college-educated.But it starts with your
neighbor,the person right next to you,the person sitting next to you in class,the kid down the block in your
neighborhood.You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can.And today,I want to challenge
each of you to make a commitment to help one person,one organization,one situation that touches your
heart.My grandmother always used to say,“If you’ve got a dollar,there’s plenty to share.”

In the short time Steve and Zach had been inside their tent packing their tools,wind-blown flame had
skipped from the top of one tree to another.The long dry summer had turned the forest into a tinderbox.
“Let’s go!We can make it back to the river we crossed today!” Steve kept Brady on the lead and their
heads down against the fire-wind.But Brady barked a sharp warning.Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂smoke across the track.They would never make it through that.The dog was pulling at his lead trying to
draw them away from the smoke,and yet Steve was uneasy.It seemed to him that they were moving away
from the river.
Suddenly,Zach cried.“Zach!” Steve shouted.“Are you OK?Where are you?” Then Brady pulled Steve
down a sharp slope(坡).At its base,Zach was rubbing his ankle.
As Steve helped his friend to his feet,Brady lifted his head and snuffed(嗅) the smoke-laden
wind.Next moment,the dog bounded away and disappeared.The boys shouted for him,but he didn’t come
back.Steve couldn’t blame Brady for panicking.He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t have a
clue which way.
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark,and Brady came bounding,stopped
directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head,pushing him back toward the slope they’d just
climbed.But Steve didn’t get it.Then Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and started pulling.The message was
clear,but Steve hesitated.Of course he remembered Brady saving his uncle’s life when the dog was much
younger.Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?
Nearby,a pine went up in a whoosh of smoke.Brady pulled again,urgently.“OK,big guy,” Steve
gritted(咬紧牙关).Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees.Not far from them fire was
touching underbrush.Several times the big dog stopped.Often he changed directions.Steve was so tired that
he just wanted to rest,but Brady wouldn’t have it.The dog bullied both boys to go on.How long they’d
walked Steve had no idea.He was almost numb when he heard it—the wonderful sound of rushing water!

Traditionally,robots have been hard,made of metal and other rigid material.But a team of scientists at
Harvard University in the US has managed to build an entirely soft robot—one that draws inspiration from
an octopus (章鱼).
Described in science journal Nature,the “Octobot” could pave the way for more effective autonomous
robots that could be used in search,rescue and exploration.“The Octobot is a minimal system which may
serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft,autonomous robots,” the study’s authors
wrote.
Robots built for precise,repetitive movements in a controlled environment don’t do so well on rough
terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions.And they aren’t especially safe around humans,because
they’re made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users.
So researchers have been working on building soft robots for decades.They’re taken inspiration from
nature,looking to animals from jellyfish to cockroaches,which are often made up of more flexible matter.
But creating a completely soft robot remains a challenge.Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮)
body,it’s still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts,such as a source of power.
“Although soft robotics is still in its early stage,it holds great promise for several applications,such as
search-rescue operations and exploration,” Barbara Mazzolai and Virgilio Mattoli of the Italian Institute of
Technology’ Center for Micro-BioRobotics,wrote in a comment.“Soft robots might also open up new
approaches to improving wellness and quality of life.”
【语篇解读】本文是一篇科普类说明文,文章主要介绍了章鱼机器人的优点和投入应用的可能
性。
32.What’s the special feature of “Octobot”?
A.It’s soft.
B.It’s made of metal.
C.It’s very small.
D.It looks like an octopus.
答案A
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂解析细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...robots have been hard,made of metal”以及段尾“...has managed
to build an entirely soft robot—one that draws inspiration from an octopus”的对比发现可知,Octobot机器
人特点是它很柔软。
33.What’s the disadvantage of traditional robots?
A.They’re hard to control.
B.They’re too heavy to move.
C.They can’t predict conditions.
D.They can’t behave well all the time.
答案D
解析推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Robots built for precise,repetitive movements in a controlled
environment don’t do so well on rough terrains or in unpredictable conditions.”以及本段内容可知,传统机
器人无法在崎岖的地形上很好地运行,此外,由于沉重的金属部件,传统机器人可能会对人体产生伤害,
据此可推断出,传统机器人的缺点是他们不能一直表现得很好。
34.One of the biggest challenges is to build Octobot’s .
A.silicone body
B.complex components
C.precise movements
D.flexible power source
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Even if engineers build a silicone body,it’s still a grand
challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts,such as a source of power.”可知,即使工程师利
用硅酮制造出了软体机器人的身体,但是制作柔韧性强的关键部件仍然面临巨大的挑战,比如动力来
源。据此可知,最大的挑战之一是柔韧性强的动力来源。
35.What’s the possible application of “Octobot”?
A.Medical research.
B.Life rescue.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂C.Machine operation.
D.House cleaning.
答案B
解析细节理解题。从文章最后一段“Although soft robotics is still in its early stage,it holds great
promise for several applications,such as search-rescue operations and exploration,”可知,尽管对软体机器
人的开发和研究还处于早期阶段,但它适用于诸如搜索救援和探索等任务,故选B项。

How to start a conversation with someone you
don’t know Introduce Yourself
It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself.Simply focus on being genuine and
sincere.When you approach the other person to start the conversation,give him a warm smile and clearly
state your name. 3 6 Remember to speak at a regular pace,taking care not to speak too quickly or
slowly,so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.
Begin the Conversation
3 7 A comment about the weather or a current event may be most appropriate.Avoid beginning
the conversation with anything too personal,as this may make the other person feel uncomfortable to
continue the conversation.After you make your opening comments,give the person enough time to
respond.Show a sincere interest in the thoughts she expresses about the subject.
Continue the Conversation
If you are building a rapport(关系),feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the
conversation. 3 8 Open-ended questions—those that can’t be answered by a simple “yes” or “no”—
help to keep a conversation going.
3 9
When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else,prepare your exit
strategy.You may say that you need to use the bathroom or catch up with someone else.Let the other
person know how much you enjoyed talking to her. 4 0
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂A.End the Conversation.
B.Bring up a general topic to begin the conversation.
C.This will help keep the conversation flowing freely.
D.If appropriate,make plans to talk again at a later date.
E.Your conversational partner will feel valued and appreciated.
F.Explain who you are and why you want to have the conversation.
G.You may want to ask about his favorite hobby,his career,his classes or upcoming events.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了和陌生人交谈的技巧。如:介绍自己;开始交谈;继续交谈和结束

36.F 本部分的小标题为“介绍自己”。根据前面的“说清楚你的名字”可知,F项“解释你是谁,
为什么想交谈”符合语境。
37.B 本部分的小标题是“开始交谈”。和陌生人交谈需要有合适的话题,B项“提出一个一般话
题来开始交谈”与上文语意相符。
38.G 根据上文的“私人的话题”可知,G项中的“爱好、职业、课程和即将到来的事件”可承接
上文。
39.A 根据前面的“开始交谈;继续交谈”可知,此处应为“结束谈话”,所以选A项。
40.D 本部分主要介绍如何结束交谈。D项“如果合适的话,计划稍后再谈”符合语意。

更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂I had driven home to celebrate my 38th birthday with my mother.When I arrived,I found her sitting
proudly at the kitchen table,a chocolate cake and two boxes wrapped in orange ribbon (丝带)in front of
her.“Happy birthday!” she said, 4 1 at the boxes.“Open them.”
As she knows me 4 2 than anyone,she’d gotten me exactly what I wanted—running clothes.I
hugged her and thanked her and proceeded (接着)to eat the cake.
“Too many 4 3 ,”I said,not really caring.
“You’ll run them off tomorrow,”Mom said.
Many adult children with a parent suffering from 4 4 memory will tell you there was one day
that 4 5 to them that their relationship with their mother or father would be forever changed.
For me that day 4 6 two weeks later,when I drove back for another short 4 7 .I came upon
exactly the same 4 8 : my mom sitting at the kitchen table; a chocolate cake resting next to two boxes
wrapped in curly ribbon.The ribbon was green this time.That was the only 4 9 .“Happy birthday!” my
mom said.
I was totally confused.“What’s going on?” I asked.She smiled,“Can’t I celebrate my daughter’s
birthday?”
This was no 5 0 .This was real life,and since my mother clearly only wanted to make me 5 1 ,I
pushed aside my fear and fulfilled my role as the 5 2 daughter.I hugged her,thanked her and 5 3
the clothes...I did not mention to her that we’d done all this two weeks ago.
My house is her world now.My mother and I have the 5 4 conversation roughly 10 times a day.
55 ,I consider it a pleasure,because every minute is new for her.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的母亲在为作者精心筹备完38 岁的生日后不久患上了
记忆障碍,在两周后准备了同样的礼物为作者再次庆祝生日。面对生病的母亲,作者用实际行动回报
了母亲的爱。
41.A.shouting B.running
C.staring D.gesturing
答案D
解析根据上下文可知,母亲在说“Happy birthday!”的同时,应该是用手指向(gesturing)装礼物的盒子,
并告诉作者 “Open them.”。
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂42.A.earlier B.longer
C.better D.less
答案C
解析母亲买给作者的礼物正是作者想要的,由此可见母亲比任何人都更了解作者。know sb well意为
“对某人非常了解”,因为有than所以用比较级形式。
43.A.calories B.presents
C.decorations D.candles
答案A
解析根据下文母亲的答语 “You’ll run them off tomorrow”中可以看出,此处作者说的是蛋糕中的卡
路里。
44.A.sad B.lasting
C.falling D.past

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了机器人割草机的优点。
56.designed 考查非谓语动词。设空处作后置定语修饰robot lawn mowers,design与robot lawn
mowers之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且design所表示的动作已发生,故填designed。
57.being 考查非谓语动词。此处是with复合结构作状语,因global warming与be之间是逻辑上的主
谓关系,且be所表示的状态与谓语动词所表示的状态同时存在,故填being。
58.quietly 考查副词。设空处修饰谓语动词work,故填副词quietly。
59.was found 考查语态。由After careful assessment可知,此处用一般过去时,又因noise与find之间
是被动关系,故填was found。
60.to return 考查非谓语动词。warn sb/sth to do sth意为“提醒某人/某物做某事”。
61.the 考查冠词。on the other hand 意为“另一方面”。
62.or/otherwise 考查连词。设空处连接两个分句,表示“否则,要不然”,故填or/otherwise。
63.that/which 考查定语从句。设空处引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词items,且在从句中作主语,故
填that/which。

65.in 考查介词。in comfort意为“舒适地”。

数应为150左右。
The event that stands out in Tom’s memory happened one morning when Tom was only ten years
old.He was at home with his elder sister Jane.Tom was doing his homework when he heard raised
voices.At first he thought nothing of it since customers in the motorcycle shop directly below their flat
often became loud,but he soon realized this time it was different.
“Quick!Quick!Remove the motorcycles from the shop,”someone yelled.
Then a thick burning smell filled the air.When Tom opened the front door of their flat to investigate,a
thick cloud of smoke greeted him.The motorcycle shop had caught fire and people were running and
crying.
Jane,who had been playing the violin in her room,hurried to the living room.They rushed out of the
door and along the corridor(走廊)through the smoke.
They were heading toward the stairway at the far end of the corridor when Jane stopped in her
track.She turned around and headed back the way they came.Tom had no idea what she was doing,but he
followed her.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂Jane had suddenly remembered the lady in her 70s called Makcik who lived next door to them.Jane
began banging on Makcik’s door,but got no answer.As the smoke thickened around them,Tom could see
many of their neighbors—some still in their pyjamas—running for safety.The thought of fear crossed his
mind.
“She would have run for safety like everyone else!”Tom cried.However,Jane refused to give up.“I
know Makcik’s still inside.”She said she was familiar with Makcik’s daily routine and was certain she
would still be sleeping.She pounded the door.“Go downstairs.Go now! Go!”
Paragraph 1:
Tom noticed the flame was reaching up.
Paragraph 2:
Luckily,some neighbors passing by stopped and offered help.

Paragraph 1:
Tom noticed the flame was reaching up.Frozen with fear,he stood rooted to the spot.He
comprehended the gravity of the situation and held Jane’s hand tightly.By then,both of them were
coughing and their eyes were stinging.Time seemed to stand still,though they were probably there for only
two or three minutes.Tom begged Jane to run for safety as quickly as possible.Jane tried to shield her nose
from the choking smoke and shook her head.She kept pounding against the door.Tom burst out crying.
Paragraph 2:
Luckily,some neighbors passing by stopped and offered help.A sense of strength immediately replaced
the mounting fear and anxiety in Jane’s mind.She told them Makcik must be still in the room.They forced
the door open with all their might.Sure enough.Makcik was lying in bed,unconsciously.She was carried
downstairs and then rushed to hospital,where she finally came to herself.People in the neighborhood felt
relieved and Jane and Tom’s joy was immense.
