Part 2: Cloze (20%)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D on the right side of the paper. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage (1 mark each).Kindness is LogicalMy seventeen-year-old son Arthur and I were leaving a holiday work function and there were plenty of leftover (51) _______ that the organizers were trying to give away. Immediately Arthur honed in on a large dish of tiramisu that no one else wanted. It was enough dessert for four people, and Arthur’s doctor had (52) _______ us about watching his sugar intake.“Please, Mom? Please!”I gave in. Arthur is autistic, and while he is extremely intelligent, he sometimes displays social quirks that cause moments of (53) _______. The tiramisu, I reasoned, was his (54) _______ for accompanying me to the dinner and charmingly chatted with my colleagues until it was time to go home.As he walked happily beside me (55) _______ the parking lot with the treat, he stopped next to our car to look at something. Standing about five feet away was a gentleman bent into his thin jacket, stomping his feet and rubbing his hands together in an attempt to (56) _______ off the cold. Every few seconds he (57) _______ and tried to speak to the people who were walking by without paying him any attention. At that moment, the gentleman turned around and (58) _______ my son watching him. Before I could say anything, the man smiled broadly and spoke: “Hey man, do you happen to have any spare (59) _______?”Arthur checked his empty pockets and then looked at me briefly. I shook my head – I hardly ever (60) _______ cash anymore. Arthur frowned and then he said something that took my breath away.“No, I don’t. But are you hungry? Do you like tiramisu?”“Yeah, I’m hungry.”Arthur’s whole face (61) _______ up. “Tiramisu is great! Here, you can have mine.”The man’s eyes began to shine as Arthur described the many (62) _______ of this wonderful dish, and told him how he should eat it. I blinked back tears as I watched the man’s smile broaden even more in (63) _______ because I knew his joy wasn’t about tiramisu.I thought about how many people had (64) _______ this man as he walked the streets that day. But my son? The one who just moments before had loudly (65) _______ me for a ridiculously large piece of tiramisu was now happily giving his reward away to a man because he was (66) _______. And he didn’t (67) _______ give the food and walk away. He engaged the man in (68) _______, perhaps the first one this gentleman had all day. He treated the man as a person with respect. The smile on the man’s face told me this was the real reason of his happiness.As we drove away, I said to Arthur, “I’m really proud of you. That was really (69) _______ and I think you made his day.”His response then is the same as it is now whenever I retell this story. “It’s only (70) _______, Mum.”
Part 3: Reading Comprehension IDirections: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice (2 mark each).ADear Colleagues,We are writing ahead of the coming norovirus season to ask for your help this winter, to reduce the spread of norovirus. We hope the following points will help you to advise your members about norovirus infection (感染) and its potential consequences.As you will know, norovirus typically causes vomiting (呕吐) and/or diarrhea (腹泻). It can spread rapidly in closed environments like schools. However, most people do not require treatment and recover at home within one or two days. Norovirus is easily spread from person to person and by consuming infected food or water or by contact with infected surfaces or objects.If a student or teacher develops symptoms of norovirus, please help to avoid further spread in school by reminding them or the parents of the students of the following points.People with symptoms of norovirus should: stay away from work or school until free of symptoms for at least 48 hours. drink plenty to replace lost water. If symptoms continue (more than 48 hours), phone the GP or NHS Direct 0845 46 47 for advice. wash hands thoroughly with soap and water regularly, particularly after toilet visits and before eating. Alcohol hand gel (洗手液) is not effective against norovirus. avoid visiting friends or relatives in hospital as there is a real risk of spreading the infection to others. stay at home, keep clean, particularly hand washing, and avoid contact with others where possible. do not handle or prepare food for other people until symptoms free for at least 48 hours. as you may know, the elderly and the very young can sometimes get a more severe infection, call the GP or NHS Direct 08454647 for advice.Information on norovirus infection is available on the Health Protection Agency website or by visitingwww.hpa.org.uk/Topics/InfectiousDiseases/InfectionsAZ/Norovirus/ Thank you for your assistance.Yours faithfully,Dr. Virginia PearsonJOINT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC HEALTHThis letter is intended for _____ in schools.
BMany of the jobs humans would like robots to perform, such as packing items in warehouses, or aiding soldiers on the front lines, aren’t yet possible because robots still don’t recognize and easily handle common objects. People generally have no trouble folding socks or picking up water glasses, because we’ve gone through “a big data collection process” called childhood, says Stefanie Tellex, a computer science professor at Brown University. For robots to do the same types of routine tasks, they also need access to tons of data on how to grasp and manipulate objects. Where does that data come from? Typically, it has come from painstaking programming. But ideally, robots could get some information from each other.That’s the theory behind Tellex’s “Million Object Challenge.” The goal is for research robots around the world to learn how to spot and handle simple items from bowls to bananas, upload their data to the Cloud, and allow other robots to analyze and use the information.Tellex’s lab in Providence, Rhode Island, has the air of a playful preschool. On the day I visit, a Baxter robot, an industrial machine, stands among oversized blocks, scanning a small hairbrush. It moves its right arm noisily back and forth above the object, taking multiple pictures with its camera and measuring depth with a sensor. Then, with its two-pronged gripper, it tries different grasps that might allow it to lift the brush. Once it has the object in the air, it shakes it to make sure the grasp is secure. If so, the robot has learned how to pick up one more thing.Tellex and her team have gathered and are now sharing data on roughly 200 items. Other scientists can contribute their robots’ own data, and Tellex hopes that together they will build up a library of information on how robots should handle a million different items. Eventually, robots facing a crowded shelf will be able to “identify the pen in front of them and pick it up.”Projects like this are possible because many research robots use the same standard framework for programming, known as ROS. Once one machine learns a given task, it can pass the data on to others—and those machines can upload feedback that will in turn refine the instructions given to subsequent machines.Such progress might seem incremental now, but in the next 5 to 10 years, we can expect to see “an explosion in the ability of robots,” says Saxena, now CEO of a startup company called Brain of Things. As more researchers contribute to and refine Cloud-based knowledge, he says, “robots should have access to all the information they need, at their fingertips.”To do some routine tasks, robots need to _____.
