Not many years ago, a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England. He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was seventy-five, he gave £ 12,000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children’s playground.
As a result of his kindness, many people came to visit him. Among them was a newspaperman. During their talk, Johnson said that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be a hundred. The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five. Johnson had a sense of humor. He liked whisky and drank some each day. “I have an injection (注射) in my neck each evening.” He told the newspaperman, thinking of evening glass of whisky.
The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant. In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and has a daily injection in his neck. Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain, asking him for the secret of his daily injection.

If you are in Dubai you may notice a robot police officer sharing the street with you. Your first thought might be, “Have I walked into a movie set？”
The answer is no. That robot is Dubai's newest police officer. The robot has a touch screen instead of a gun. The robot will be employed mostly at shopping centers and other places popular with visitors.
The robot's face has eyes but no mouth or nose. It stands 165 centimeters tall and weighs 100
kilograms. If the robot works well, Dubai says 25 percent of its police force could be robots by 2030. The robot cop(巡警) was officially presented at Dubai's Gulf Information and Security Expo and Conference in May.
The police hope the robot will make life easier for the people of Dubai. Khalid Al Razooqi is Director General of Smart Services at the Dubai Police. He said the robot can help the public every day, and that “it won't ask for any sick leave”.
The robot cannot make arrests (逮捕). But it can recognize faces and compare them to photographs on a criminal database. It can also sense emotions. People can use the robot's touch screen to do things like reporting a crime, paying fines and reporting lost or found things. They can also ask how to get somewhere. The robot can greet and shake hands with people. So far, the robot can speak Arabic and English. It soon will learn other languages such as Russian, Chinese, French and Spanish. In addition to having a touch screen, the robot has a camera that can live stream video to a police command center.
Dubai has plans to add other kinds of robots to its police force. Within two years, the city plans to use a threemetertall robot that can run up to 80 kilometers an hour. The Dubai government says the machine would be the world's largest robot. A human police officer will be able to sit inside and control the robot. It will be able to lift heavy objects.
The city also plans to use an eggshaped robot to control parking areas and give tickets to people who break traffic laws.
28. Why do the police use the robot?
A. To attract more tourists to Dubai. B. To make people's life much easier.
C. To reduce the cost of the human workforce. D. To introduce new technology to people.
29. According to the Paragraph 5, the robot cannot be used to ________.
A. report a crime B. pay fines
C. ask for directions D. chat with people freely
30. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Robots have a bright future in Dubai.
B. Robots will replace the police in the near future.
C. People prefer robots to the human police service.
D. Robots will be used in every public area in Dubai.
第二节（共5小题； 每小题2分， 满分10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。
Experts have recently found that making conversation plays an essential part in connecting with people and building closer relationships. Although most people can hold a conversation, only a few are smooth when they talk. If you have dreamed about being a good talker, or you just want to make some change, then listen up!
●Talk slowly
Generally, good talkers don’t rush into a conversation. 31 They act as if they have all the time in the world. This makes them come off as centered and collected. Model this way of talking and you will create the same effect.
●Hold more eye contact
Most people keep eye contact about 2/3 of the time or less when they talk. 32 This will convey confidence and interest in interacting with them.
33
People with good conversation skills are more likely to notice the kind of things that the average person doesn’t notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. They may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other person’s hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. All these details help to leave a deep impression.
●Express Your emotions
34 Express your feelings about those facts. Keep in mind that it is at the emotional (情感) level that people connect best.
●Use the best words
The ability to talk smoothly has a lot to do with choosing the precise (精确的) words to convey your precise feelings or thoughts. 35 It will help you develop a way with words and allow you to express yourself more easily.
Conversational skills don’t improve just like that. It takes time, practice and the ability to learn at a rapid rate from your own experiences.
A．Notice the details.
B．Offer interesting news.
C．Improve conversational skills.
D．Don’t just present the facts—you’re not a newspaper.
E．It’s a very good idea to hold eye contact just a bit more than that.
F．Develop your vocabulary and practice communicating as accurately as possible.
G．They take their time when they think over something and when they say it out loud.

English Club Explored the Wildlife Park
On Dec.16th, our school English Club organized a visit to the Wildlife Park located in the northern suburb of our city, for all its members.
First we visited the indoor exhibition, where we saw many colorful pictures of different kinds of butterflies, dinosaur fossils and other wild animals. Then we entered the outdoor area by bus to see the wild animals, such as lions and tigers. For most students, it was the first time they had seen animals in the open air so closely. It was really exciting. Through this activity, we learned more about wild animals and our awareness of protecting the endangered animals was improved.

M: Yes, I’m going there to visit my grandparents.
Text 2: W: It’s so hot today.
M: Yes. It’s been more than 35 degrees centigrade nearly the whole day.
W: Quite surprising though, the coolest time today was near noon.
M: Well, we did have rain at that time.
Text 3: W: Where’s John, do you know, Bill?
M: Oh, he’s gone to hospital. His classmate Dick had a car accident and John went to visit him.
Text 4: W: Carl does not pay attention to anybody. You are wasting your time in persuading him.
M: He is old enough to make up his own mind, but it is really hard to persuade him.
Text 5: W: So you missed the meeting?
M: Not exactly. I got there half an hour before it finished.
W: Oh, I see.
Text 6: M: What a beautiful necklace!
W: It was my grandmother’s.
M: She gave it to you as a birthday gift?
W: No, she gave it to me before she passed away.
M: I see. That’s a beautiful vase. Is it from your grandmother too?
W: No, it comes from China. My husband went to China on business last month and bought it for me.
Text 7: M: Hello, I want to ask you how to draw money.
W: There’s a quite long line in front of the bank windows. Please use this machine.
M: How to use it?
W: Please plug your bank card here, and then operate it by steps.
M: What can I do if the card doesn’t come out after I plug it?
W: It doesn’t happen generally.
M: What can I do if only 100 yuan comes out after I withdraw 500 yuan?
W: Sir, please take it easy.
M: If I withdraw 500 yuan, 5,000 yuan comes out; Haha, how nice!
W: Sir, please don’t lose yourself into daydreams. There’re many people waiting here.
Text 8: M: Is there any place in the hotel where we can amuse ourselves?
W: If you want to take a walk, you can go to the garden. It is very relaxing there.
M: That sounds good. But is that the only place to go?
W: No, sir. There is a recreation center on the ground floor. You can play table tennis and go bowling.
M: I don’t plan to play sports. I’d like a place to relax myself.
W: Yes, sir. There is a music teahouse where you can enjoy both classical music and modern music, while having some Chinese tea or other drinks.
M: Oh, great. Thank you very much.
W: It’s a pleasure.
Text 9: W: How much is this piano, please?
M: 1,000 dollars.
W: My god! That’s a fortune!
M: But you must realize that this is the most famous brand.
W: But it’s too dear for me.
M: That’s the best piano in our store.
W: I just want to get one for my daughter to learn how to play the piano.
M: Then how about this one made in New York? It’s priced at only 620 dollars.
W: I hope its quality is guaranteed.
M: Oh, yes, Madam. As ours is a well-known store, our goods are always dependable.
W: Can you make it any cheaper? It is the first time that I have visited your store.
M: For the first time, I will make it an even figure, 600 dollar.
W: Thank you. By the way, can you have it delivered?
M: Yes, of course, Madam. We will deliver it free of charge.
Text 10:
W: When asked about their impressions of their university life, many students expressed disappointment. So Professor Smith, could you explain how it happens?
M: Well, after their highly controlled high school lives, the students were having difficulty adjusting to the free time in the university. When asked to describe their high school lives, many of them say they got up at six in the morning and studied until ten at night. Most of this time was spent at school, doing piles of homework to help them prepare for the university entrance exams. Once they entered the university, the students are not expected to devote all their waiting hours to study. They should also take an active part in school activities. Therefore, they should learn to divide their time outside of the class between sports and clubs. They should also spend some time watching TV and chatting with their roommates. These activities are useful in helping them enrich their life experiences and thus prepare for their future. To those unhappy students, my advice is to get used to it and learn to make decisions for themselves.
