A new supermarket put on a notice inside the entrance. It said, “Remember, once a week, one of our customers(顧客) gets free goods(things that cost nothing). This may be your lucky day!” All the housewives who went to the supermarket had one great hope: to be the lucky customer who didn’t have to pay for her shopping.

For several weeks Mrs. Blake hoped to be the lucky customer. Unlike many other customers, she never gave up hope. The cupboards in her kitchen were full of things she did not need. She dreamed of the day, when the manager of the supermarket would come and say to her, “Madam, this is your lucky day and everything in your basket is free.”

One Friday morning, after she finished her shopping and had taken all the things to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy tea. She went to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the check-out. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket come to her. “Madam,” he said, “congratulations! You are our lucky customer and everything in your basket is free!”

A. customers could buy things at lower prices once a week

B. the customer who bought the least goods didn’t have to pay

C. just one customer could get free goods once a week

D. the first customer who bought goods in the supermarket was the lucky one

2. What was Mrs. Blake’s hope?

A. To buy something cheaper in the supermarket.

B. To see the manager of the supermarket.

C. To buy everything she needed in the supermarket.

D. To be the lucky customer.

3. Why did Mrs Blake go back to the market after her shopping?

A. Because she wanted to see who would be the lucky customer.

B. Because she forgot to buy one more thing.

C. Because she had to pay for her shopping.

D. Because she wanted to get another chance to be the lucky customer.

4.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

B. In fact the notice for free goods was a trick (詭計(jì)).

C. Mrs. Blake’s dream came true at last.

At 18, many American young people go off on their own. They go away to college or find full-time jobs, and they often pay for their own apartments. Some get married and start families. This independence（獨(dú)立) is learned from childhood.

     From an early age, American children learn to do things by themselves. Children as young as 2 begin to put away their toys and dress themselves. At 3, many children do simple chores like setting the table.

     Using money in the right way is also taught early. As soon as a child understands the value of money, he or she receives a weekly allowance. This is used for things the child wants, like toys or treats. The child can spend or save it, usually with little help or advice from parents. If the child wants more money, it must be earned by doing extra chores.

     Children are taught early in life to think for themselves. They are allowed to make some decisions

and make mistakes. Failure often teaches more than success.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2010-2011學(xué)年北京市燕山區(qū)中考一模英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Many companies use guards and expensive alarm systems to protect their property(財(cái)產(chǎn))。 Soon a new kind of protection will be used- robots. Engineers have been working on the first mobile robots for businesses. The robots will patrol(巡邏) factories, warehoues(倉(cāng)庫(kù))，and museums at night.

The mobile robots will move around slowly on wheels. They will be able to detect people through walls and pick up sounds, such as breaking glass. They can be fixed with lound sirens(警笛) to frighten thieves, or radios to signal police or guards.

To protect a building, a robot will have to move around without knocking into the walls. Information about the building will have to be stored in the robot’s small, built-in computer. A floor map could be programmed into the computer’s memory, for example.

A mobile robot will not be able to do everything. Unlike human guards, it will not be able to climb stairs, open doors, or move along rough ground. It won’t be able to tell the difference between friends and enemies. Because of that, people will have to be barred from the area it patrols.

One kind of mobile robot will be able to “sense” whether a chair or box has been moved and go around it. This robot will also judge size well enough so that it won’t send an alam if a cat crosses the room. And if someone tries to steal this robot, it will sound a loud, painful siren. The three-foot-tall robot will be hard to steal anyway. It will weigh about 200 pounds.

U.S companies pay almost $10 billion a year to protect their property with alarm systems and human guards. Mobile robots may be cheaper.

1.Why is the new kind of robots called mobile robots?

A. Because they are able to climb stairs.   B. Because they are able to send an alarm

C. Because they can open doors.      D. Because they can move around slowly on wheels

 

 

2. How will a robot get directions for moving around a building?

A. From a human guard   .        B. From a built- in computer.

C. From another robot   .        D. From radio signals.

3. What does the underlined word barred mean?

A. protected    B.allowed .   C.marked     D. prevented

4. According to the text, a mobile robot will NOT be able to ___________.

A. sense whether something has been moved.   B. sense a cat crossing the room.

C. move over rough ground .                D. detect people through walls.

5.This text mainly describes how robots will ___________.

A. protect the museum                       B. set off a siren .

C. judge the size of a person.         D. patrol buildings.
