What do you think robots are capable of? You might be able to find one that fits your needs at the World Robot Conference(WRC) 2022 in Beijing. Held from Aug 18 to 21, more than 500 robots were on display at the WRC, according to Xinhua. From human-like robots that look surprisingly lively to robots that can make jianbing 24 hours a day, this year's WRC showed quite a few cutting-edge inventions.
Technology in agriculture
A fruit-picking robot attracted visitors' attention. With the help of various sensors and an AI system, the robot can collect fruit according to its ripeness, quality and size, according to CCTV. The robot first locates the fruit and then uses sensors to decide whether it is ripe, with a robotic arm picking the fruit gently. The fruit is then categorized, ending up in a basket according to its size. Wu Jiafeng, the exhibitor of the fruit- picking robot, told CCTV that more robotic technology will be used in agriculture in the future, including robots for daily inspection and weeding.
Robots fighting COVID-19
Medical staff conducting nucleic acid tests often find their work toilsome, especially under the summer heat. A nucleic acid test robot developed by Tsinghua University and a Chinese biotech company was presented at the WRC. It looks like a vending machine(自动售卖机), but the robot can collect throat swabs, process samples，as well as produce and upload the results within 45 minutes, according to China Daily. The whole process will not require the involvement of humans or laboratories.
Inventions of the youth
Those visiting the exhibit also witnessed the intelligence of a new generation. Students from BDA School of the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China had their own exhibition at the WRC. Despite their young age, the students brought fascinating inventions and ideas. For example Wang Jiarun, a junior student at the school, designed a three-dimensional parking facility. Since there are usually too few parking spaces in older residential areas,Wang’s work aims to fit more cars into current parking spots. The facility works like a sky wheel with six parking spots. When cars need to be picked up, the facility rotates steadily, placing the car on the ground.

B. It looks like a lively human.

C. It processes samples with the help of doctors.
D. It can produce and upload the results in half an hour.
23. Why is the parking facility designed like a sky wheel?

The alligator gar(鳄雀鳝) was a mystery to most people in China, but now it has become famous as a high-risk, invasive fish species.
The fish hit the headlines following the tracking of two alligator gars in a park in Ruzhou, Henan province. Filming of the search, which was live-streamed on Aug 23, attracted about 37 million viewers at its peak. The capture of the fish wasn't too simple, but they were finally caught on Aug 26.
Gu Dang’en, a scientist associated with a national program on invasive species control, said that the exotic fish was brought into China two to three decades ago for its strange spotted look.
As a predator at the top of its food chain, the alligator gar has already appeared in many places across China. It can eat all the other creatures living in the water, damage local ecosystems and pose risks to humans. A boy in Taizhou Jiangsu, was bitten by an alligator gar on three of his fingers while playing by a community pool on Aug 17. Experts also warn that the alligator gar's guts and eggs are poisonous.
The Biosecurity Law, which took effect in April 2021, requires that the government must draft a list of invasive species and work out rules for their management. “Authorities have announced a national plan to conduct surveys of 10 invasive species, including the alligator gar, ”said Mu Xidong, a researcher with the Pearl River Fisheries Research Institute at the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences.
Ren Dapeng, a professor from China Agricultural University, said that, under the new law, institutions and individuals cannot import, release or abandon exotic species without official approval. If institutions and individuals break the Biosecurity Law, they can face fines of between 10,000 and50,000 yuan. He said that if people no longer want to raise exotic species like the alligator gar, they should send them to the authorities and turn to them for help.
24. Why has the alligator gar become widely known now?
A. The alligator gar was a high-risk and invasive fish species.
B. The capture of them didn’t go easily and lasted a long time.
C. The two alligator gars were special and tracked by researchers.
D. Millions of people watched the live capture of them on the Internet.
25. What do the underlined word “exotic” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Destructive. B. Foreign. C. Poisonous. D. Attractive.
26. According to Ren Dapeng, what will happen if people let go an alligator gar secretly?
A. They will be thrown into prison.
B. They will be sent to the authorities.

C. They will be fined at least ¥ 10,000.
D. They will be asked to catch the fish back.
27. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Protecting Biodiversity B. Stopping Invasive Fish
C. Drafting Biosecurity Law D. Balancing Life & Nature

A RCHAEOLOGISTS have recently made some stunning discoveries at the famed Sanxingdui Ruins site in Sichuan province.
A treasure trove of bronze, gold and jade wares have been uncovered from the site’s six pits. At least 10 of the bronze wares in the trove have never been seen in the history of human civilization.
Researchers described a bronze box with a piece of green jade ware inside of it as the highlight of the 10 relics. The top and bottom of the vessel are covered with turtle shell-shaped lids, each of which resembles a net. And the sides of the box are decorated with dragon head-shaped handles and a few bronze streamers(饰带).
“It would not be an exaggeration to say that the vessel is one of a kind, given its distinctive shape, fine craftsmanship and clever design,”said Professor Li Haichao at Sichuan University. “Although we do not know what this vessel was used for, we can assume that ancient people treasured it.”
Another new find from the past was a bronze altar nearly 0.9 meters tall, upon which researchers believe the people of the Shu civilization made offerings to heaven, earth and their ancestors.
Around these pits, archaeologists also found traces of bamboo, reeds, soybeans, cattle and boars, which suggest that these objects were all offered as sacrifices.
Ran Honglin, an expert of the Sanxingdui cultural relics said that the diversity of the items found at the site indicated cultural exchanges between the various different ancient civilizations of China.
He noted that one of the sculptures with the head of a human and the body of a snake were characteristic of ancient Shu civilization, while ceremonial vessels known as“zun”from the site were culturally symbolic of China’s central plains, known as the Zhongyuan region.
The new finds have mainly been excavated from the No. 7 and No. 8 pits, bringing the total number of items that have been discovered in the six pits to nearly 13000 since 2020.
28. Which of the following vessels is the most impressive?
A. A bronze box. B. A jade ware.
C. A bronze streamer. D. A green zun.
29. What may the bronze altar be used for?
A. Offering heaven and earth. B. Honoring their ancestors.
C. Putting sacrificial offerings. D. Showcasing Shu civilization.
30. What can we learn from Ran Honglin’s words?
A. The ancient Shu civilization was not an isolated one.
B. The ancient Shu civilization refused cultural exchanges.

C. The ancient Shu civilization was quiet different from others.
D. The ancient Shu civilization learned a lot from Zhongyuan region.
31. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A guild book. B. A story book.
C. A research report. D. A newspaper.

China’s first group of e-sport major graduates emerged in the summer of 2021, with data showing that even though this major had been underestimated by the public, the future appeared promising as there were hundreds of thousands of related jobs available.
After the Ministry of Education decided that “electronic sport and management” should be listed in colleges’ major departments in September 2016, around 30 Chinese universities kicked off their e-sports major courses in the same year, to meet the needs of the rise of e-sport related industries in the Chinese market.
“The major is designed to meet the demand,”said Zheng Duo, co-founder of Tianjin Hero Sports Management and a visiting professor from the Communication University of China (CUC).
Chinese passion for e-sport is not in doubt, with more than 18,000 e-sport companies registered as of 2021, according to corporate database Qichacha. The number of e-sport users in China reached 500 million in 2021, and the market had a value of more than 145 billion yuan as of 2020, according to Chinese consulting group iResearch. Meanwhile, the industry chain is becoming more complete.
Jobs in areas such as supervision and content production require talent and training. The number of available jobs is estimated at 500,000, and could reach 3.5 million in the next five years, according to China’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.
Well-known universities such as CUC and the Shanghai Theatre Academy have responded to the country’s call and are preparing graduates for the e-port market. Yet not every major graduate is qualified for the positions available, as the jobs normally require practical experience, which is something a lot of graduates lack.
Industry insiders have indicated that e-sport is an industry with rapid iteration, and some companies prefer to hire people with experience instead of spending time training recruits.
Roughly half of the graduates will enter the gaming industry, said Xiao Pi, an -sport major graduate from CUC. “Some of the rest will pursue further studies for their master’s degree.”
“Even though e-sport majors have advantages in finding jobs, students need practical experience to better suit the different positions,”said Gu Liming, president of Perfect World Games.
32. What do the public think of the e-sport major according to data?
A. It attracts many companies.
B. It deserves a promising future.
C. It doesn’t make much difference.
D. It can replace many other majors.
33. Why did universities start to offer e-sport major courses in 2016?
A. The Chinese had the potential for e-sport.

B. The Chinese had great passion for e-sport.
C. They wanted to respond to the country’s call.
D. Industries of e-sport were developing quickly.
34. Why are some major graduates disqualified for the positions available?
A. They haven’t got a master’s degree.
B. They are short of practical experience.
C. They are unfamiliar with the e-sport market.
D. They have lost out in the fierce competition.
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. E-sport appears to be more of a blessing.
B. E-sport presents a new lifestyle for teenagers.
C. The training for E-sport can’t be overestimated.
D. Changes in sports bring about job opportunities.
