Dubai officials said they began to use Chinese-made drones( 遥 控 飞 机 ) to launch a
self-flying air taxi in the near future. The Chinese-made EHang 184 drone has four
propeller( 螺 旋 桨 ) wings. It is designed to transport one passenger, weighing up to 100
kilograms, and a small piece of luggage.
The head of Dubai’s Roads and Transportation Authority said the autonomous taxi has
already being tested in the city state. He said regular service is expected to be here by July. The
egg-shaped aircraft can reach a top speed of 160 kilometers per hour. It can operate for up to 30
minutes on a single battery charge, with a flying range of 50 kilometers.
A video demonstration( 示 范 ) of the air taxi showed the whole trip being automated.
Drones can be requested through an app to arrive at an approved pickup location. The
passenger then climbs in and enters the desired destination into a device built into the seat. The
auto-piloted aircraft then powers up, takes off and heads to the drop-off location.
Officials from EHang said all movements and functions of the drone will be monitored by
people in a “Command and Control Center” on the ground. The person inside the aircraft will
also be able to communicate with the command center if needed.
EHang said it has done major testing on its 184 vehicle in China over the past few years. It
has also developed and sold several drone models controlled by remote devices to consumers.
The company has said the drones could have other uses apart from carrying passengers in
the air in busy cities. They could also help in emergency rescue operations or deliver human
organs.
Dubai is the commercial capital of the oil-rich United Arab Emirates in the Persian Gulf.
Officials there have long been pushing to adopt high-tech transportation alternatives. The ruler
of the city state has said by 2030, at least 25 percent of all passenger trips are to be completed
with driverless vehicles.
25. How far can the aircraft fly at most on a single battery and back?
A. 80 kilometers. B. 50 kilometers. C. 40 kilometers. D. 20 kilometers.

D. has to watch a video demonstration first.
27. What does the underlined word “monitor” most probably mean?
A. take over B. watch over C. hand over D. get over28. What can we infer about the drones from the passage?
A. The drones have been now under mass-produced.

D. The drones can be dangerous to take.
C
Have you ever heard someone say “You totally look like you’re a Jessica” or something
similar? People seem to think that they know what kind of person a “Jessica” or a “Michael”
looks like. Why is this?
According to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
humans tend to associate people’s names with their appearances, and can even guess
someone’s name based on how they look.
Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, collected thousands of photos
of people’s faces. They labeled each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to
guess which of the four names was correct.
The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38% of the time. It seems that certain
characteristics of faces give them clues about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported.
However, this only worked when the volunteers looked at names from their own culture.
In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who used
nicknames(昵称) more often than their real names. This may show that a person’s appearance
is affected by their name only if they use it often.
“This kind of face-name matching happens because of a process of self-fulfilling
prophecy(预言), as we become what other people expect us to become,” Ruth Mayo from Tile
university told science news website EurekAlert.
Earlier studies have shown that gender(性别) and race stereotypes(刻板印象) can affect a
person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names.
For example, people tend to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the
word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect
them to be “delicate” and “female”, just like the flower they are named after.
29. How is this article developed?
A. By doing an experiment. B. By asking questions.
C. By giving examples. D. By comparing different cases.
30. Why do some people look like their names according to Ruth Mayo?
A. They want to please everyone around them.
B. They don’t want to be different from others.
C. They tend to become what others expect them to become.
D. They like to copy famous people who share the same name.
31. What may be the best title for this passage?
A. What determines our names B. How stereotypes affect people’s looksC. How we get rid of our stereotypes D. Why we look like our names
D
For as long as we’ve known about it, humans have searched for a cure for cancer. Across
the world, countless amounts of time and money have been spent on researching a way to stop
this terrible disease. But now, it seems like the answer could have been inside our own bodies
the whole time.
Recently, the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) in the US, a government agency that’s
responsible for healthcare, approved a new form of gene therapy(疗法) that could mean the end
of a certain type of cancer.
The therapy allows scientists to “train” the immune(有免疫力 ) cells of sick patients to
fight leukemia(白血病) — a form of blood cancer that mostly affects young people.
The exciting new treatment works by removing healthy immune cells from the patient,
known as T-cells, which are then changed to be able to “hunt down” cancer cells.
The cells are then put back into the patient before they begin to get rid of the patient’s
leukemia over time, similar to how the body fights off other illnesses.
“This is truly an exciting new day for cancer patients,” Louis J. DeGennaro, president of
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, said in a news release.
Up until now, a long and painful marrow transplant(骨髓移植) was the only option for
many leukemia patients.
In this procedure, healthy blood cells are taken from a donator and placed into the sick
patient, who also has to go through chemotherapy (化疗) to allow their body to adjust to the
new cells.
But with a recovery rate of around 83% — according to a news release published by the
FDA — it’s hoped that the days of painful trips to the hospital, or even death, are over for
leukemia sufferers.
“We’re entering a new frontier in medical innovation(创新) with the ability to reprogram
a patient’s own cells to attack a deadly cancer,” FDA representative Scott Gottlieb said in the
release. “New technologies such as gene and cell therapies hold the potential to transform
medicine and our ability to treat and even cure many incurable illnesses.”
32. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?
A. To compare different ways of curing leukemia.
B. To report on a breakthrough in cancer treatment.
C. To explore the potential of gene and cell therapies.
D. To show scientists’ efforts in search of a cure for cancer.
33. How does the new treatment to fight leukemia work?
A. By using changed T-cells to destroy cancer cells.
B. By replacing sick blood cells with healthy ones
C. By removing sick blood cells during marrow transplant.
D. By using chemotherapy to improve the patient’s immune system.
的34. What can be inferred about the new therapy for leukemia sufferers?
A. It can save them many more trips to the hospital.
B. It can improve their ability to fight off all kinds of cancer.
C. It can give them a better chance of survival and recovery.
D. It can reduce their pain in the process of marrow transplant.
35. What is Scott Gottlieb’s attitude toward gene and cell therapies?
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Casual.
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。
Dirty, dangerous and dull. These are three words you do not want to use to describe your
job. While many jobs are a little dirty, dangerous or dull, some are much so that it is better not
to have humans performing them at all. Would you want to be the first person to go into a
building on fire? 36 This is already happening all around the world. There are millions of
robots at work today.
The most common type of robotic device is a mechanical arm. This is often used in
manufacturing. 37 But robots have moved well beyond such simple tasks. A robot named
Demeter is an agricultural harvester that can move around a field of crops, planting and
harvesting by using GPS, controllers and sensors.
Some robots are programmed to do certain jobs, but others are remotely operated vehicles
(ROVs). 38 The US space agency NASA has used ROVs to explore the surface of the
moon and Mars. ROVs are also used in underwater environments.
What do regular people want from robots? Some people would like robots to perform
tasks around the house. One home robot on the market now is Roomba, a turtle-shaped robot
that slowly vacuums(用真空吸尘器打扫) its way around the room. 39
40 Surely they will continue to explore the ocean, analyze the surface of distance
planets, and build our cars and computers. But what else? Will more robots drive our cars for
us? Will they do our laundry? Will they do our gardening? Perhaps.
A. What if a robot could assess and fix the situation?
B. Robots will play a more important role in the future.
C. It senses walls and turns to avoid stairs and objects on the floor.
D. They are also used to gather information on geographical changes in volcanoes.
E. These arms move in many directions and perform precise and repetitive tasks with ease.
F. They can perform maintenance on oil drilling platforms and explore the ocean floors
G. ROVs can have cameras, sensors and other devices that provide hard-to-obtain information.

Dear Frank,
I’m glad to learn you’re interested in the popular TV talent show “Chinese Poetry
Competition” and want to participate. You asked me for advice, so I’d like to give you a hand.
First, I suggest you should surf the Internet to learn about the history of poetry so that you can
know Chinese poetry better. There’re many websites related to Chinese poetry where you can
get what you need. Second, you’d better recite as many poems as possible and communicate
more with students who are also fond of poetry. Additionally, knowing how to enter for the
competition and watching several previous programs will get you well prepared.
Hope you can make progress in poetry learning. Good luck in the competition!
Best wishes,
