Earthquake rescue(救援) robots experienced their final tests in Beijing. The inventors of this kind of robot said with the robot, rescuers would be able to buy more time to save lives during an earthquake.
This kind of robot is able to fly. It's about three metres long, and it took about four years to develop the model. Its main function is to collect information from the air and send goods of up to30 kilos to people trapped(困住) by an earthquake. It has an excellent camera which can provide very clear pictures. It can work day and night, and is also able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.
Dr Qi Juntong, a researcher from Tsinghua University, said, “The most important character of this flying robot is that it doesn't need a control from faraway places. We just set in it the information of the places where it should go, and then it takes off, and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3,000 metres, and as fast as 100 kilometres per hour.”
This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes. Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go. The camera,also acting as a detector(探测器) that finds trapped people and detects harmful gases, is placed in the robot, which can work in the dark. With its 10-metre-long pipe in the robot, people who are trapped in the fallen buildings will be able to get supplies including oxygen(氧气) and water.
Experts said that the robots would enter production and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as possible.
( )1. In what way is the robot different from others according to Dr Qi?
A. It has a very special shape. B. It is able to fly everywhere.
C. It works with no information set in. D. It doesn't need a faraway control.
( )2. Which is the function of the camera in the robot?
A. Detecting trapped people. B. Dealing with harmful gases.
C. Providing oxygen and water. D. Sending goods to the quake area.
( )3. Which of the following is TRUE about the robot?
A. It weighs about 30 kilos. B. It has not been put into use.
C. It works only in the daytime. D. It entered production years ago.
( )4. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. Earthquake rescue. B. The development of robots.
C. Tests on a new robot. D. An introduction to a robot.

You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember,there's always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you'd like to play with at break.Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say“Do you want to sit here?”in the lunchroom. When you're at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say“Hi, can I play, too?”or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you're feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help—and pretty soon, you'll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
