Europe's biggest online takeaway food company Just Eat has partnered with Starship Technologies to deliver food with robots on the streets of London later this month. "Nobody has ever done deliveries with land-based robots," said Allan Martinson, the chief operating officer of Starship.The robot courier can travel up to 4 miles per hour for about 10 miles. It uses a GPS signal and nine cameras to navigate (确定方向). Instead of a person arriving at their door, customers could find themselves receiving a notification on their phone that says a robot is on its way and a code to unlock the automated courier. "Put the code in, the robot opens up, and there's your food," said David Buttress, chief manager of Just Eat.The robot, which has so far been tested in Greenwich, Milton Keynes and Glastonbury, costs £ 1 to transport within 3 miles, compared with the £3 to £6 it costs for a human courier. To date 30 robots have driven nearly 5,000 miles without getting into an accident or finding themselves picked on by passers-by. They have driven in more than 40 cities around the world, including London and Tallinn, Estonia.An initial worry was how the public would react to robots. But Martinson said the public has been calm when passing the delivery machine on the streets. "The most surprising reaction has been the lack of reaction," said Martinson.Another significant fear was that people would disrupt (扰乱) the robots, or try to steal them and their contents. To prevent this, the robot is fitted with nine cameras, two way audio, and movement sensors that send a warning if it is lifted off the ground. And it opens only with a passcodeprovided to the customer via a notification. "It's much easier to shoplift than it is to steal a robot," said Martinson.41. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "courier" in Paragraph 2?A: delivererB: collectorC: providerD: guide42.

It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack's dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp."So," Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. "How did this place get its name?""Are you sure you want to hear it? It's a scary story," warned Jack."Of course!" cried out Tom. "If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn't have chosen this place!""Ok, but don't say I didn't warn you," said Jack, and he began this tale. "Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different —it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice."You are clearing too much land," warned one old man. "The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse(滥用) it.""Silly fool," said Dennis to himself. "If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I'll become wealthier. He's just jealous(嫉妒)!""Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He didnot notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.""What happened?" Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire."The land hit back —just as the old man warned," Jack shrugged. "Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.""What a stupid story, "laughed Tom. "Plants can't …" Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted(晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered Tom's face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.46. The underlined word "dare" in Paragraph 1 is closed in meaning to _____.A: adviceB: assistanceC: instructionD: challenge47. Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A: To frighten them.B: To satisfy their curiosity.C: To warn them of the danger of the place.D: To persuade them to camp in the swamp.48. Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man? A: The old man envied him.B: The old man was foolish.C: He was too busy to listen to others.D: He was eager for more crops.49. Why did Tom scream and faint?A: He saw Dennis's shadowB: He was scared by a plantC: His friends played a joke on him.D: The weather became extremely cold.50. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?A: Grasp all, lose all.B: No sweat, no sweet.C: It is no use crying over spilt milk.D: He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.DWhat makes a person a giver or taker? The idea "give vs. take" takes shape in all interactions (互动) and relationships of our lives. We're either giving advice, making time for people, or we're on the receiving end. We keep changing between the two based on different situations on a daily basis, if not an hourly one.According to Adam Grant, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others not receive any rewards. Actually, most matchers will try hard to promote and support givers so that they can get the good they deserve.Is there a gender factor (性别因素) that plays a part in this?A study led by Hannah Riley Bowles, a professor at Harvard University, focused on this question. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down inpairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to discuss salary promotions. Male "employees" asked for an average salary of 146kwhilethefemalesaskedforonly 141k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers.As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge, and my care and my attention to others. I don't expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like I'm being taken for granted.I also tend to get upset when I see a loved one's continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So, it's safe to say I'm 50% giver, 35% matcher and 15% taker.I do know someone, however, who is 99% giver. They're constantly devoting their time, sharing valuable insights (洞察力) and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although they're changed the lives of many people, they rarely see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; they're now extremely successful, well known for what they do.51.We can learn from the first paragraph that ________.A. most people think they are giversB. people are not always givers or takersC.an individual is born to be a giver or a takerD. few differences exist between givers and takers52.In Adam Grant's opinion, most people ________.A. hate takersB. prefer giving to takingC. enjoy relying on themselvesD. balance giving and taking53.Hannah's study focused on ________.A.

The salary difference between women and men54.The author tends to ________.A. think acts of kindness should be valuedB. expect something in return for giving most of the timeC. take giving for grantedD.be a complete matcher55.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Giving is the shortest path to success.B. Sharing is the greatest human quality.C. No good deed goes undone.D. Givers are worth respecting.第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英文回答问题。
