21． (6 分) A team of engineers at Harvard University in trying to create the first robotic fly. Designed to do
what a fly does naturally, the tiny is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform
controlled flight tasks.
"The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own’ said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies (相互依赖) on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it d connected to,” said Wood.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites， in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. "Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around， ” he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications.“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the anima but using these robots instead” he said. "So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are
really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”
1、 What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?
A． It's automatic. B． It's very small.
C． It's controllable. D． It's quite powerful.
2、 We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can____ .
A． act as a spy plane B． help do farm work
C． fly at a very high speed D． answer many scientific questions
3、 What is Wood's idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?
A． It is highly questionable.
B． It has wide practical applications.
C． It gives scientists interest in flying machines.
D． It points to a new direction in studying biology.
4、 What can be the best title for the passage?
A． Harvand's Study in the Field of Insects.
B． A Breakthrough in Engineering Science
C． An Interesting Invention 一 Robotic Fly
D． Robotic Fly 一 a Copy of Real Life Insect
22． (8 分) There is a lot of talk about “brain power.” You don’t usually hear about stomach power. As it turns out,
the stomach might also be very powerful with a new electronic pill inside it. The new electronic pill, equipped with a Wi-Fi transmitter, is swallowed and can harvest energy from inside a person’s own stomach to record core(核心) body temperature and then send the health data to an outside monitor.
The model can power itself for nearly a week—much longer than current absorbable devices, which are placed inside the body and only can share health information for less than an hour. “To make the device work even longer, and see if the stomach’s acid could power the device, we used tiny pieces of copper and zinc for experiments.” said Philip
Nadeau, an electrical engineer who designed the device together.
The Wi-Fi devices fit inside a capsule but unfold when they hit the stomach and deliver drugs for long periods of time before they break down and pass through the body. This Wi-Fi pill could lead to fresh opportunities for drug delivery or real-time health monitoring from inside organs, said Giovanni Traverso, a doctor and biomedical engineer at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, who c0-led a study of the pill published recently in Nature Biomedical Engineering.
Despite our many medical advances, we’re pretty bad at measuring core body temperature. A recent study of 8,600
patients found that thermometer (温度计) readings from the mouth or skin did a lousy job of measuring core
temperature. Getting an accurate temperature is important.
Traverso and Nadeau are also aiming to shrink (缩小) the pill to the size of a tablet. “Temperature tracking is just
the first of many ways the medical community can use the device.” Traverse thinks.
1、 What is WRONG about the Wi-Fi pill?
A． The Wi-Fi device is powered by itself.
B． The pill can send health data to the doctor.
C． Nadeau is the first one to design the pill.
D． The pill can help monitor patients’ health.
2、 What does the underlined word “lousy” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A． Accurate. B． Unimportant.
C． Terrible. D． Traditional.
3、 What is the Traverso’s attitude to the future of the W Fi pill?
A． Pessimistic. B． Unconcerned.
C． Worried. D． Optimistic.
4、 What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A． The Wi-Fi pill is too big for the patients to swallow.
B． The pill may help those with other diseases in the future.
C． Body temperature is the only one use for the Wi-Fi pill.
D． The pill has been used in many ways in medical field.
23． (8 分) Fabien Cousteau was born with deep love for the ocean. His grandfather and his father were ocean
explorers and documentary filmmakers. Fabien spent his early years on his grandfather's ships. Today, Fabien follows in his family's footsteps to protect the planet's endangered ocean life. With his vast knowledge and experience, he tries to strike a balance between environmental problems and market economies.
Fabien is well known for his study of sharks. During 2000-2002, he created a TV special called Attack of the Mystery Shark based on the shark attacks that occurred along the New Jersey shoreline in the summer of 1916. Then in 2003-2006, with the help of a large crew, Fabien created a shark submarine (潜艇) that enabled him to put himself inside the shark world, providing people with a rare view of the mysterious and often misunderstood creatures.
For the next four years (2006-2010), Fabien was part of a series called, Ocean Adventures, which offered a rare look into some of the most fantastic ocean species (物种) and environments.
In 2010, Fabien started Plant A Fish, a nonprofit project for children to help restore local water ecosystems by replanting key ocean species. Save the world, one fish at a time. The project is still in progress now and its final goal is to plant 1 billion “fish” worldwide.
From June 1 to July 2, 2014, Fabien and his team spent 31 days underwater to research how climate change and pollution are affecting the oceans. Fabien's Mission 31 broke new ground by going deeper, longer and further, exposing (显露) the world to the adventure and the mystique (神秘) of what lies beneath.
Fabien is currently working on a documentary film about the adventures of Mission 31, as well as building an Ocean Learning Center to provide children around the world with the opportunity to learn about oceans and engage with ocean explorers directly through social media.

25．(10 分) As a first responder, you never know what type of situation you might walk into, or who you’ll meet
along the way. That’s definitely been the case for Jeffrey Lanenberg, a 51-year-old paramedic(急救医务人员) since 1984.
Ten years into the job, Lanenberg received a call that reported that a man in his early 30s had fallen down in the Mall of America. When Lanenberg and his partner arrived at the scene,
