V.阅读理解
A
Starship Technologies originated in Estonia
but is now based in San Francisco.The company
employs dozens of six-wheeled delivery robots
on college campuses.Starship is also adding
four new schools to its operational field:
University of Illinois Chicago,University of
Kentucky,University of Nevada,and Embry-
Riddle Aeronautical University.
Currently,the company operates on 20
college campuses in 15 states with a global
fleet that totals 1,000 robots.This expansion
will add 85 more robots to that fleet.Starship
states that it has done over 1.5 million deliveries
worldwide since its founding in 2014.The
company has raised 102 million so far,including
17 million in fresh funding announced earlier
this year.
Each robot in Starship is electric,has a
box that can fit about 20 pounds of goods,and
has a number of cameras to identify objects in
the way and help guide it to its destination.
The robots have a delivery area of three to four
miles and can travel at a maximum speed of
4mph,which is obviously slower than a delivery
by a human on a bike or in a car.And they can
climb the edge of roads but not stairs,which
may limit their appeal to customers who live in
high-rise buildings.
Delivery via robots is still relatively brave
in the US.There are a handful of start-ups
operating delivery robots of varying sizes,
everything from fully-sized minivans like
Udely to robots that are almost similar to
Starship's like Amazon and Yandex.Recently,
Postmates has also invented a delivery robot
called Serve that can carry 50 pounds of
goods.There are even some newly produced
robots like Nuro,which has made what can be
best described as a mini-robotic car,and others
that fall somewhere in between.All claim to be
automated,but some still require humans to
follow their movements.
Demand for delivery robots has risen since
the pandemic,though it remains to be seen
whether that will hold up as the economy
reopens and fewer people rely on takeout from
restaurants.
1.What do we know about Starship Technologies
from Paragraph 1?
A.It operates globally.
B.It employs university students as designers.
C.It is spreading its service on campuses.
D.It is diversifying into the field of scientific
education.
2.Why do people in high-rise buildings show
little interest in delivery robots?
A.They are likely to get lost.
B.They work much slower than men.
C.They have difficulty going up stairs.
D.They are unable to identify customers.
3.What does the underlined word“brave”
probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A.New.
B.Efficient.
C.Conventional.
D.Courageous.
4.What's the author's attitude towards the
future demand for robot delivery?
A.Indifferent.
B.Objective.
C.Skeptical.
D.Worried.
Very few people will challenge you if you
say that the world seems to be changing faster
and faster.Of course,some people will.They
will mention how change has occurred throughout
history.We may be on an up cycle right now,
but things will slow down again,as they have
over and over for thousands of years.But I
don't think most people-even those who agree
that change is coming faster-really appreciate
the consequences of the high speed of that
change.
The speed of everything is going up and
up.And this is now demanding that we run
organizations in a different way.However,the
number of public or private firms who are
trying to adopt new ways is very small.Why
should this be so?I think the answer lies in
the fact we believe.For the most part,it is
highly influenced by our own personal experiences.
And when it comes to change,the world we see
today and the world we saw two or three or
four months ago are rarely very different.
Indeed our experiences can be literally 99.5%
the same.We get up,get ready for work,and
get on the subway,not paying attention to the
depth of the seawall(海堤),because it doesn't
affect us today.
So even if we know that things are
changing and changing faster,what we see and
feel is very different.And our experiences,and
the feelings that we get from them,are very
influential in determining our behavior.So if
we don't feel things are changing that much,
we won't actively and aggressively(有冲劲地)
look for new ways to adapt to that change.It's
really that simple.And increasingly,it's really
that dangerous.
The way we absorb information,and the
way we act on it,are not going to change because
the structure of our brains or bodies will not
suddenly change.The latter only happens over
very long periods of time.What can help?Big
ideas that produce big light bulbs over our
heads can help.A constant focus on change
7.Which order can show the CORRECT
opportunities and risks-can help.A sense of
relationship among experiences,feelings and
urgency to find and use new opportunities
actions?
might help.
A.Feelings-→actions→experiences.
5.What is most people's attitude towards the
B.Actions-→feelings→experiences.
changing world in the author's opinion?
C.Experiences-→actions-→feelings.
A.Negative.
B.Objective.
D.Experiences→feelings→actions..
C.Indifferent.
D.Appreciative.
8.What's the purpose of the text?
6.Why do only a few firms try to operate new ways?
A.To remind people of the dangers of the

V.I knew it was my time to enter.My
heart pounded like a drum while my feet
remained firmly planted on the floor.Knowing
that Mom was expecting my appearance,I took
a deep breath and stepped onto the stage,ready
to face the unknown.I could hear the murmur
of the audience,but at that time,I saw Mom
among them.Inspired,I managed to perform
as I had done in rehearsals.
Determined to leave a lasting impression,
I poured my emotions into the performance.
Forgetting the fear,I allowed myself to
become the Fish Footman.My movements
became flexible and natural,which echoed the
grace of an underwater dancer.Each line I
spoke was filled with sincerity,and the audience's
initial laughter transformed into complete silence.
By the time my part ended,the applause
thundered like a welcome home.At that
moment,I knew I had overcome my fear and I
was ready to face the challenge in the future.
