15、 Our school’s science festival just ended a few days ago. What interested me most was the time we spent making a car. It was made out of corrugated cardboard (瓦楞纸板), but could still hold a person, as well as move.
We were excited about this idea, but we found it hard to make the car. It seemed impossible for a cardboard car to carry someone. Our physics teacher showed us a video. There was some corrugated board shaped like “A” or “W” in the video, it could hold more weight. This gave us the idea to make the car after getting the proper materials (材料).
Because there was not much time left for us, we had to finish it as quickly as possible, We talked about how the car should be made and how to test it. I was glad that we were able to work closely with each other. Everyone saw the work as an interesting way to relax. When the car was finally finished, we J all wore a smile on our faces and found that all our work had been worth it, even after spending whole afternoons Working on it.
We joined the competition after we finished the car. Though we didn’t win any prizes, we found I something more meaningful than success, we learned new things about physics and learned how to get along with each other.
1．The car was made out of ________.
A．thick stone B．special glass
C．strong wood D．corrugated cardboard

16、You know how much your telephone has changed over the past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the next 10 years. One of the biggest changes is that cars will drive themselves.
"We certainly have the technology for it now." says Andrew Poliak of automotive（机动车辆的）technology supplier QNX ."We expect self-driving cars to be a mainstream（主流）thing between 2020 and 2025."
The American company Google has been working on self-driving cars for years. These cars are already on the roads in the United States and are truly self-driving. Last week, the police ordered one of Google's cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not breaking any law, so no one was punished.
Another American company, Tesla, added an "Autopilot" feature(特点) to its cars last month. With the Autopilot turned on, the vehicle drives itself. The car will speed up, slow down, brake(刹车) and drive by itself. You can take control of driving any time by turning the steering wheel or touching a pedal. The car uses sensors（感应器）to know when driveway changing is safe and whether it should speed up or slow down.
Tesla Autopilot is made for cross-country driving. It keeps you in the driveway and helps you avoid hitting other cars. It does not work well on local roads, for it will not stop at a red light or stop sign.
Reporter Carolyn Nicander Mohr tried the Autopilot feature(特点) of a Tesla earlier this month. She had a hard time trusting the car to do what it should do. She thought about canceling the Autopilot feature many times during her trip. She wanted to take control at every corner in the road and hit the brake when the car in front of her slowed down. However, the car drove perfectly itself.
Other companies like Marcedes-Benz, Audi, BMW, Volvo and Toyota are all working on self-driving cars, too.
1．What do Andrew Poliak's words probably mean? ______
A．It is too difficult for people to make self-driving cars now.
B．Self-driving cars will be first put on the market in 2020.
C．There will be more self-driving cars in use in the near future.
D．Nobody loves to use self-driving cars at the moment.
2．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．One of the Google cars was fined for breaking the law last week.
B．The Tesla’s car with Autopilot feature can sense traffic lights in front of it.
C．Tesla Autopilot car worked much better than Reporter Carolyn expected.
D．Tesla Autopilot is made for cross-country driving as well as local-road driving.
3．Which word has the same meaning as “autopilot” ______ .
A．speed up B．self- drive C．slow down D．brake
4．According to the text，how many companies mentioned(提到)are working on self-driving cars?
A．Three B．Five C．Six D．Seven
5．From the passage, we can infer(推断)that ______ .
A．Self-driving cars are popular nowadays.
B．Self-driving would be trusted by anyone.
C．Self-driving cars will be totally safe in the future.
D．Self-driving cars still need improving.

17、Once a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was not complete, it could only roll (滚动) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with worms(蠕虫). It found lots of different pieces， but none of them was fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly (完美). The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll. As it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly.
A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone loves him or someone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had. We couldn't be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive (原谅), kind enough to share happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us, and then we can always have a wonderful time in our lives.
