三．(共13小题,每小题2分,满分26分)

阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

There are robots all around us. Some do very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. and some do one simple job. When an automatic washing machine is switched on, water pours in. The machine waits until the water is warm enough for washing clothes. It does this by “feedback”(反馈). Information about what is happening is feedback into the robot to tell what to do next. Our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback. They tell us what is going on around us. So robots are like human beings in two ways. They work and they have feedback.

In some ways robots are better than human beings. They work quickly and do not make mistakes. They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. And they never get tired. So robots are very useful in factories. They can be taught to do many different jobs. First their electronic brain must be shown how the job is done. A person moves the robot’s “arms” and “hands” through each part of the job.

The most intelligent robots can move and see. Their eyes are cameras. Their fingers can feel shapes and sizes of the objects. These robots have computer brains linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions. The expensive robots are used in scientific research. They do such job as handling radioactive materials.

36. In this passage the author tells us that ________.

A. robots are very popular B. there are various kinds of robots

C. we see robots only at certain times D. robots can be easily controlled

37. What does the author seem to inform you about robots?

A. They should be greatly improved. B. They will probably take over in the future.

C. They are very helpful and useful to humans. D. They are machines that break down a lot.

38. The author says that in industry ________.

A. robots break down a lot B. robots can do many jobs

C. robots only get in the way D. robots sometimes cause troubles

B

“It hurts me more than you”, and “This is for your own good” —these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.

That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.

Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Clomps who says of her students—“so passive” —and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Clomps, contributes to children’s passivity. “We’re talking about a generation of kids who’ vet never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of saying ‘go and look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”

Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It’ s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’ s for their own good. It’s s time to start telling them no again.

39. Children are becoming more inactive in study because _______.

A. they watch TV too often B. they have done too much homework

C. they have to fulfill too many duties D. teachers are too strict with them

40. We learn from the passage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis on _______.

A. learning Latin B. discipline

C. natural development D. education at school

41. The main idea of the passage is that _______.

A. parents should leave their children alone

B. kids should have more activities at school

C. it’s time to be more strict with our kids

D. parents should always set a good example to their kids

C

A handsome middle-aged man walked quietly into the cafe and sat down.Before he ordered，he couldn't help but notice a group of younger men at the bable next to him.It was obvious they were making fun of something about him and it wasn't until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon(丝带)on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.

The man pretended not to notice it，but the whisper and laughter began to get to him.He looked one of the rude young men straight into the eye，placed his hand beneath the ribbon and asked，“This？”

With that the young men all began to laugh out loud.The man he spoke to said，“Hey，sorry，man，but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket！”

The middle-aged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table，and politely seated him.As uncomfortable as he was，the young guy had to，not really sure why.In a soft voice，the middle-aged man said，“I we
