Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a water puddle (水坑) ahead on the path. I changed my direction to __1__ it on the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water and mud. __2__ I reached the puddle, I was suddenly attacked! But I was __3_. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!

I took a step forward. My attacker __4__ me again. He pushed and struck me __5__ with his head and body, striking me over and over again with all his might. For a second time, I moved back a step __6__ my attacker gave up his attack. Yet again, I tried moving __7__, my attacker charged me again. I was struck heavily in the chest over and over again. I wasn’t sure what to do __8__ to walk back a third time. This time, though, I stepped back several paces to __9__ the situation. My attacker moved back as well to land on the ground. That’s when I discovered __10__ my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying. She was __11__ the puddle where he landed.

Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his __12__ as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his __13__ for his mate. He had bravely attacked me for his mate’s __14__, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, I __15__ careless enough to step on her. Now I knew why and what he was fighting for. There was really only one choice __16__ for me. I carefully __17__ my way around the puddle to the other side of the path, though it was only inches wide and extremely __18__. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.

Since then, I’ve always tried to remember the __19__ of that butterfly whenever I see huge obstacles facing me. I use that butterfly’s courage as an inspiration to __20__ myself that good things are worth fighting for.

這是一篇記敘文。一只蝴蝶為了保護(hù)它的同伴，他冒著生命危險(xiǎn)無數(shù)次地攻擊比它自己強(qiáng)大得多的目標(biāo)。作者深受啟發(fā)，從此以后只要遇到困難，總是想起那只蝴蝶的勇氣，提醒自己為美好的事業(yè)而奮斗是有意義的。

1．B。由首句得知，這條小路前面有個(gè)水坑，所以改變方向，從這條小路沒有水和泥漿的地方繞過這個(gè)水坑。

2．D。此處是時(shí)間狀語從句。當(dāng)我走到水坑邊，突然受到了攻擊。

3．C。畢竟是一只蝴蝶，所以沒有受傷。

4．A。我向前走了一步，攻擊者又向我沖來。rush在此作及物動(dòng)詞；catch抓��；drag 拖著；snatch突然伸手拿取。

5．D。由下文可知，他用他的頭和身體撞擊我的前胸。

6．B。此處and表示并列。意為：我退了一步，蝴蝶放棄攻擊了。

7．C。然而，我試圖再走向前時(shí)，這只蝴蝶又向我沖來。

9．B。這次我后退了幾步，看看是怎么回事。look over 查閱，檢查；look into 往里看；調(diào)查；look on傍觀；look after照顧。

10．D。由下一句“He had a mate and she was dying.”的意義可知此處用why說明其原因。

11．C。就在他降落的水坑旁邊。

12．A。他緊緊地落在她的旁邊，他的翅膀一張一合，好像給她扇風(fēng)。

13．B。我真的欽佩那只蝴蝶對(duì)他的配偶的愛和勇氣。in concern for關(guān)心，愛扶；in praise for贊揚(yáng)；in eagerness for渴望；in search for尋找。

14．D。他勇敢地攻擊我，為了他的配偶。for one’s sake 為了……利益；看在……的份上。advantage 常用to one’s advantage 對(duì)某人有利；profit 利潤；interest興趣，愛好。

15．A。他這樣做只是為了他的配偶短暫而珍貴的生命，我本來會(huì)粗心踩住他的配偶。should have been 本來會(huì)；本該會(huì)。

16．A。我只有一個(gè)選擇。left是leave的過去分詞，意為“剩下的，留下的”，常用作后置定語。remaining 作前置定語。

17．C。由下文可知，我仔細(xì)地繞到水坑的另一邊。make one’s way = go(走)

18．B。本文頭一、二句就提到了這條小路的狀況，由此可以判斷：雖然那一邊只有幾英寸寬而且十分泥濘。

19．C。從此以后，每當(dāng)我看到前面有巨大障礙時(shí)，我總是想起那只蝴蝶的勇氣。

20．A。提醒自己為美好的事業(yè)而奮斗是有意義的。

TOKYO, Japan (AP) – Japan is very serious about robotics (機(jī)器人技術(shù)). If the androids are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are exploring just that. In a show this week, an android（有人特點(diǎn)的）with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors(感應(yīng)器)embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate（模仿）life with robot technology.
“A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you,’” said University of Tokyo professor Tomomasa Sato. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”
Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden（臥床不起的）. Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan.
The walking, child–size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at showrooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot on wheels called Papero. A robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of companionship.
Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices（設(shè)備）monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail.
On the bright side, the tea – pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes.
【小題1】What is the best title of this passage?

A．“Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan
B．Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan
C．Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly.
D．Robot technologies are widespread in Japanese daily life.
【小題2】The underlined word “embedded” in the first paragraph probably means      .
A．fixedB．establishedC．settledD．rooted
【小題3】According to Professor Sato,       .
A．the robot serves tea much faster than a human being
B．the robot does anything like human beings
C．tea – serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society
D．tea – serving robot doesn’t need any reward for the service
【小題4】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks.
B．A robot has been programmed to clean the dishes.
C．All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots.
D．The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan.
【小題5】We can infer from the passage that        .
A．people are afraid of being monitored by robots.
B．the technology of robots has been highlighted（強(qiáng)調(diào)） in Japan.
C．robots can completely take the place of human beings.
D．people’s privacy should be strictly protected

Many years ago, I was travelling in the northwest of Indian. One evening, after hunting in the
forest all day, I was returning alone to the place which I had put up my tent. It was growing dark
but I was walking along a narrow path. On my right was a wide river, and on my left , thick dark
forest. Suddenly, I saw two eyes looking at me from among the trees. A tiger was about to jump
on me. What should I do? Should I jump into the river and hoped to save my life by swimming?
