Reading Comprehension (2 points, 30%)Passage 1Scientists in the 1950s proclaimed the robot the brainwave of the futureit would free housewives of drudgery and fill factories with a tireless
13、work force. But in many ways, the brainwave has been a washout.Robots can paint cars, salvage nuclear fuel and even assist in brain surgery, but theyre still pretty dumb.Mr. Reddy says robots are dumb “because we havent taken the trouble to put the pieces together, not because we dont know how. That
14、 takes money and time and effort, and we dont have the money.”But today robots can recognize forms and shapes and measure distances. They can hear and speak by using computers that recognize thousands of words. Their sensors can detect smoke or fumes. They can move abut rolling on wheels or walk wit
15、h as many as eight legs like a spider on uneven terrain. In addition, they can recognize texture and the force of a movement, such as pressing.Many robots have one or two of these abilities to some degree, but creating a competent robot that combines most or all of them has been difficult. Scientist
16、s have also found it difficult to match human abilities that most people take for granted, such as the fingers dexterity or the ability to identify objects.“The list of things that robots can do better than humans is much, much shorter than the list of things robots cannot,” says Tom Smith, co-direc

A web-build
21、ing spider without its web is like a man marooned on an island of solid rock, totally out of touch and destined to starve to death.So vital is the web to an orb-web spiders survival that the animal will continue to construct new webs daily even if it is being starved. For 16 days the starving spider
22、 builds completely normal webs. Then, as the animal gets scrawnier, it constructs a wider-meshed web using fewer strands. Such webs would only trap larger prey, which is more economical from the perspective of a starving spider.The spider conserves energy by recycling web protein. It simply eats its
23、 own web each evening and re-uses it to manufacture new silk. In studies with radioactively labeled materials, it was found that 95 percent of web protein reappears in the next days web. Most of the energy needed for web-building is used in walking over the strands as they are laid down.Scientists a
24、re impressed by the adaptability of the spiders highly preprogrammed brain, which is larger for its size than the brain of any other invertebrate. If web-building is interrupted, or if some of the existing strands are destroyed, the spider simply retraces its steps to see where the web is left off t
25、he then finishes building a normal web. One spider will even finish building the incomplete web of another.6. A title that would best express the main idea of the passage would be . A.

29、ity for women in all spheres, and particularly perhaps in the sphere of political activity where they needed a voice, and above all needed to be able to influence others on their behalf, there were reasons against this as matters regardless of how far they seemed to be in the interests government an
