I remember the day when I first learned to ride a bike. It was a frightening, yet fun experience. My granddad was the one who taught me and he helped me when I got hurt. The first time I got on a bike, I had no idea what I was doing, and just about everything went wrong. My granddad told me to just put my feet on the pedals and start pedaling (骑自行车). He also told me he would hold onto the back of the bike the whole time, yet he didn’t.
As soon as I started trying to balance myself, he let go. I happened to look back just then. I was scared, to death that I was going to fall and hurt myself. When I was scared, my mind went blank from pedaling, and I just wanted off. I forgot how to use the brakes (车闸) and fell right off the bike. My granddad kept encouraging me to get up and try again, and after about 15 minutes, 1 finally stopped crying, got up and tried again.
As soon as I started pedaling again, my pants got caught in the chain, and I fell flat on my face and hit my nose. Since that happened t my granddad decided to call it a day and try again the next morning. The next morning I woke up bright and early, and was very eager to try to ride my bike. My nose felt better, so I wasn’t that afraid of falling anymore.
Though I knew there were a lot of difficulties on the way to mastering the skills in riding a bike, I believed I could do well with my granddad’s help. After all, riding a bike was what I wanted to do eagerly.

With self-driving vehicle technology rapidly advancing, many companies are turning to autonomous robots for the final leg of the delivery process, from the store or local distribution center to the customer. The latest to join the trend is e-commerce giant Amazon. Following a successful eight-month test run in Snohomish County, Washington, the company’s Scout robots have been making the rounds of Irvine, California, since August 6, 2019.
The six-wheeled Scout is about the size of a large cooler with the capacity to carry small or medium-sized packages. The battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has been programmed to avoid pedestrians, animals, and unexpected obstacles, such as garbage cans. Its powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.
To accelerate Scout’s development and bring it nationwide sooner, the company has created several detailed virtual maps of American suburbs and conducted trial deliveries to homes there.
Though Amazon has not shown how Scout ensures the delivery is picked up by the right person, it most likely requires the customers to apply a unique code, texted to them prior to the delivery, to unlock the store box. Also unclear is the number of deliveries Scout can complete before its battery needs to be recharged. Though the initial tests are being conducted with a human for company, the robot will be autonomous in the future. Its location, however, will be tracked at all times—if someone attempts to steal Scout, Amazon employees will be instantly sensed.
However, the eco-friendly robots are unable to climb stairs or open gates, which means that they can only reach consumers who live on the ground level. Additionally, the robots are unable to leave packages at the front door if the customers are not home. Whether these problems get resolved remains to be seen. For now, it appears that humans will still be needed to achieve the ever-growing demand for home and office deliveries.
8. Which of the following descriptions about Scout is right?
A. They can be powered themselves. B. They are strong enough to carry big things.
C. They can run with their six wheels. D. They can avoid obstacles ahead.
9. What about Scout is still confusing to common people?
A. How many deliveries it can do on a full charge. B. Whether it can climb stairs or open gates.
C. How it recognizes the right owner of the things. D. How long it will take to get it fully charged.
10. What does the underlined phrase prior to” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. due to B. after C. in front of D. before
11. What is the author’s opinion about delivery robots according to the last paragraph?
A. They are not easily available. B. They have some limitations.
C. They will replace humans soon. D. They won’t be well accepted.
答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了为了解决送货的最后一公里问题，机器人应运而生，许多商业巨头正在这一领域加紧努力。同时介绍了机器人外观，工作原理，以及还需要解决的问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中The battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has been programmed to avoid pedestrians, animals, and unexpected obstacles, such as garbage cans.可知这款由电池驱动的汽车以正常的步行速度行驶，经过编程可以避开行人、动物和垃圾桶等意外障碍物。由此可知，D选项“它们可以避开前面的障碍”正确。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中Also unclear is the number of deliveries Scout can complete before its battery needs to be recharged.可知同样不清楚的是，在需要充电之前，Scout能完成多少次投递。由此可知，普通人对Scout困惑的是Scout充满电可以送多少次货。故选A。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文it most likely requires the customers to apply a unique code, texted to them以及划线短语后文to unlock the store box可知Scout很可能要求顾客在送货前，使用发送给他们的唯一代码来解锁商店的盒子。由此可知，划线短语意思“在……之前”。A. due to因为；B. after 在……之后；C. in front of在……前面；D. before在……之前。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中However, the eco-friendly robots are unable to climb stairs or open gates, which means that they can only reach consumers who live on the ground level. Additionally, the robots are unable to leave packages at the front door if the customers are not home. Whether these problems get resolved remains to be seen.可知然而，这些环保机器人不能爬楼梯或打开大门，这意味着它们只能接触住在地面的消费者。此外，如果顾客不在家，机器人不能把包裹放在门前。这些问题能否得到解决还有待观察。由此可推知，作者对送货机器人的看法是它们有一些局限性。故选B。
D
Just how much does the Constitution(宪法) protect your digital data? The Supreme Court will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant (授权令) if the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.
California has asked the justices to restore the practice that the police may search through the contents of suspects’ smartphones at the time of their arrest. It is hard, the state says, for judges to assess the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies .
The justices would be careless if they followed California's advice. They should start by rejecting California’s weak argument that exploring the contents of a smart phone is similar to say, going through a suspect's wallet. The court has ruled that police don't offend against the Fourth Amendment(修正案) when they go through the wallet of an arrestee without a warrant. In fact, exploring one's smartphone is more like entering his or her home. A smartphone may contain an arrestee's reading history, financial history, medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.
Americans should take steps to protect their own digital privacy and should avoid putting important information in smartphones. But keeping sensitive information on these devices is increasingly a requirement of normal life. Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to remain private and protected by the Constitution's prohibition on unreasonable searches.
In many cases, it would not be very difficult for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through phone contents. They could still trump(打出王牌) the Fourth Amendment protections when facing severe and dangerous circumstances, such as the threat of immediate harm, and they could take reasonable measures to ensure that phone data are not deleted or altered while a warrant is on the way. The justices, though, may want to allow room for police to cite situations where they are entitled to more flexibility.
But the justices should not swallow California's argument whole. New technology sometimes demands fresh applications of the Constitution's protections. Orin Kerr, a law professor, compares the explosion and accessibility of digital information in the 21st century with the establishment of automobile use as a digital necessity of life in the 20th. At that time, the justices had to explain new rules for the new personal domain(领域) of cars. Similarly, the justices must sort out how the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution applies to digital information now.
12. The author’s attitude toward California’s argument is __________
A. skeptical B. tolerant
C. indifferent D. disapproving
13. The author believes that exploring one's phone content is comparable to_____________.
A. getting into one's residence B. handing one's historical records
C. scanning one's correspondences D. going through one's wallet
14. In paragraph 4 and 5, the author shows his concern that_____________.
A. principles are hard to be clearly expressed
B. citizens' privacy is not effectively protected
C. phones are used to store sensitive information
D. the court is giving police less room for action
15. Orin Kerr's comparison is quoted to indicate that_____________.
A. the Constitution should be implemented flexibly
B. Principles of the Constitution should never be changed
C. New technology requires reinterpretation of the Constitution
D. California's argument violates principles of the Constitution
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
本文为议论文。本文主要讲述了最高法院考虑警察在逮捕嫌犯时，能否在没有搜查令的情况下，搜查被捕者的手机内容，以及宪法应保护个人数字隐私这一更大的问题。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中The justices would be careless if they followed California's advice. They should start by rejecting California’s weak argument that exploring the contents of a smart phone is similar to say, going through a suspect's wallet.可知如果法官们听从加州的建议，那就草率了。他们应该首先拒绝加州的薄弱的论点，即探索智能手机的内容类似于说，翻阅嫌疑人的钱包。由此可推知，作者对加利福尼亚的观点持不支持态度。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中In fact, exploring one's smartphone is more like entering his or her home.可知事实上，查看一个人的智能手机更像是进入他或她的家。由此可知，作者认为查看一个人的手机就好比进入了这个人的家。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to remain private and protected by the Constitution's prohibition on unreasonable searches.可知公民仍然有权期待私人文件保持隐私，并受到宪法禁止不合理搜查的保护。以及第五段中In many cases, it would not be very difficult for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through
