Robots are supposed to run on batteries, right? But scientists in England have built a series of small robots that get their energy from dead flies or sugar. One robot, called Slugbot, was even designed to hunt garden insects for dinner! Scientists at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory want to invent robots that can operate for long periods of time in dark, dirty, or dangerous places. Many of those spots, like the seafloor or Antarctica, don’t have electrical equipment to connect power supply. So inventor Chris Melhuish came up with a better idea-build robots that get their energy just like animals do. The robots digest their food in the stomach-like equipment full of bacteria! As the bacteria eat up the food, they produce something that is very important to form electricity. One robot, called Ecobot II, could run for 12 days on a diet of eight flies! But it seems that after an eight-fly dinner, Ecobot II couldn’t get rid of the leftover “waste”. Melhuish says his team is now working on a new and improved robot.

B Six years ago, I was trapped in a heart-breaking office job in Edinburgh. Each day I left early in the morning while my family slept, and returned with just enough time to say good night to my little boys. We loved our home but could not afford it. To break free from this tiring trap, I made a risky plan: I gave up my job and turned to the wilderness of Alaska. This madness was inspired by my discovery of Walden by Henry David Thoreau, who had returned to nature in search of a simpler life in the 1840s. His philosophy was the inspiration I needed. In Alaska, despite facing extreme cold and hunger, I lived in a small wooden hut and finally achieved my dream. A year later, though unemployed, I felt internally rich. Recently, I made a journey to Walden Pond in Massachusetts, the very lake that inspired Thoreau. I was worried that modern changes would damage my romantic vision of the place. My heart indeed dropped when the GPS system directed me to an orderly, tarmac (沥青铺的) car park, and a sign saying no woodfires. The presence of joggers and tourists threatened to ruin my sense of personal discovery. For a moment, I even regretted coming. But then a fish jumped, creating widening circles across the water. I reached up, pulled some green needles from a pine tree, and pressed them between my fingers, catching their clean smell. I realized that while the surface world had sped up, the necessary, slow forces of nature remained unchanged. There was still space to feel what had inspired Thoreau. My trip was worth the risk. Most of us will never have enough money, but nature offers limitless wealth to fill our spiritual banks. 24. What made the author decide to leave his job? A. Spiritual crisis. B. Wild adventure. C. Financial stress. D. Family tension. 25. What does the underlined word “internally” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Fully. B. Mentally. C. Colorfully. D. Terribly. 26. Why did the author regret coming to Walden Pond at first? A. He disliked the local rules. B. Woodfires were not allowed. C. He was tired of meeting tourists. D. The place lost its natural wilderness. 27. What does the author try to convey in the text? A. Hard work leads to success. B. Dreams demand brave pursuits. C. Nature offers spiritual wealth. D. True joy comes from a simple life. C For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation. Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament (性格). Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy. In addition, the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is obviously different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship. Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior. This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. No matter how much they like a playmate, they may still grab his toys, refuse to share, and get bossy. But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age. Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them. Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), and then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying! You made him feel better.”). Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words — not fists — to express how they feel. It’s also important to be mindful of how your child’s personality affects playtime. Kids are easy to get angry when they’re sleepy or hungry, so schedule playtime when they’re refreshed. 28. What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates’ behavior? A. They want to lead the play. B. They are too shy to express themselves. C. They are fond of their playmates. D. They are competing against each other. 29. What does the author suggest parents do for their kids? A. Design games for them. B. Find them suitable playmates. C. Play together with them. D. Help them understand social rules. 30. What is the function of the quoted (引用的) statements in paragraph 4? A. Giving examples. B. Explaining concepts. C. Providing evidence. D. Making comparisons. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. How Children Adapt to Changes B. How to Be a Role Model for Children C. How Toddlers Learn Social Skills D. How to Communicate with Your Kid D Expert birdwatchers have changes in their brain structure (结构) compared with beginners, which probably help them better identify birds and slow age-related cognitive (认知的) loss. When learning or practising a skill, the brain reorganises itself. This ability is called neuroplasticity. For example, professional musicians show structural changes in brain regions related to hearing. To understand whether birding also shapes the brain, Erik Wing at York University in Canada and his colleagues analysed brain structure and function in 48 hobbyist birders, half experts and half beginners. They were aged 22 to 79 and both groups were similar in terms of sex, age and education. During brain scans (扫描), the birders were shown a bird image for less than 4 seconds. About 10 seconds later, they tried identifying the same bird in one of four images, each showing a different species. “We intentionally picked highly confusable bird species,” said Wing. The task was repeated 72 times, using images of 18 bird species, six of which were local and 12 of which weren’t. As expected, expert birders performed better. On average, they correctly identified 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local ones. In contrast, beginners got only 44% correct for both. While identifying non-local birds, three brain regions became more active in expert birders, but not in beginners. These regions are related to object identification, image processing, attention and working memory. Moreover, these brain regions appeared more structurally complex (复杂的) and organised in expert birdwatchers, suggesting building expertise in birding reshapes the brain. As we age, brain structure normally becomes less complex. But this change was less noticeable in expert birders, suggesting birding may help build cognitive reserve, the brain’s ability to protect itself against ageing and adapt to damage. “Maintaining brain activity with specialised abilities may reduce the effects of ageing,” said Robert Zatorre at McGill University in Canada. However, to really know whether the brain changes are due to birding, researchers would have to scan the brain over months to years. 32. Why does the author mention professional musicians? A. To talk about different life skills. B. To illustrate the idea of neuroplasticity. C. To show musicians’ great talent. D. To compare music with birdwatching. 33. What made it hard for the birders to identify the birds in the task? A. Much repetition of the task itself. B. Inclusion of more non-local birds. C. Close similarity among bird species. D. Improper timing for image viewing. 34. What did the brain scans find about expert birders? A. No brain changes related to ageing. B. Quicker brain responses to local birds. C. The same complexity of the brain as beginners’. D. Greater activity and finer organization of the brain. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings? A. Fair. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 We often miss life’s small blessings because they seem too minor to matter. The common saying goes, “Stop making a big deal out of little things.” But what if we did the opposite? 36 That is what micro gratitude means. 37 For example, the warm drink you enjoy every morning, or the comfortable bed you sleep in every night. 38 First, they are so familiar that our brain stops noticing them. Second, we save gratitude only for big events, so most ordinary days go unappreciated. Micro gratitude can be practiced in five areas: conveniences (like your car), simple pleasures (the taste of favorite food), positive interactions (a friend’s joke), physical environment (sunlight), and small wins (progress on a project). 39 First, find small positive moments on your calendar.
