听力原文： There is nothing quite so depressing as a house which has been shut up for a period of time. Even if it has been kept dusted and clean, there is still a musty smell and a feeling of airlessness about the rooms. No warmth seems to come out from the electric fire one has just switched on, no light through the window from which one has just down to the curtains. The chairs in the sitting-room look as if they has never been sat on, even if they are far from new. They are arranged in neat patterns round the coffee table. Not until you drop your coat or the newspapers on them do they begin to look as anything normal. As far as the kitchen, that is the least attractive place of all. Although it hasn't been used for months, it still seems to smell vaguely of some old food. The kitchen table is clean, the cupboards are bare. You cannot remember where the gas and the water turn on, the cups all seem to have lost their handles, the plates seem to be cracked, and it is impossible to find a teaspoon anywhere.

The game begins with a kick-off from one end of a 100-yard field. The receiving ruggers, as a rugby team is called, attempt to move the ball down the field, the opposing team attempts to stop the man with the ball.
The rules are quite simple. You cannot tackle anyone but the man who is carrying the ball, and once the ball carrier is tackled, he must give up the ball. Obviously, a good strategy for moving the ball. downfield is to carry it as far as possible, then pass the ball before being tackled.
If the ball carder can travel the length of the field, his team is awarded four points, and another two points are won by kicking the ball over the goalpost after the score. Penalties are equally simple, tackling a player who is not carrying the ball carries a ten-yard penalty. Much of rugby's reputation for roughness stems from the fact that the players wear no pads. To Americans accustomed to seeing professional foot-ball players in suits and helmets like armor, a rugby player's uniform. seems suicidally simple. Most ruggers wear a very thick jersey, heavy gymnasium shorts, heavy socks, rugby shoes, and a mouthpiece. Ruggers use other equipment or pads only when an injury requires protection. But even with this minimal equipment, the game is apparently not as brutal as it might seem. The players are quite satisfied with the lack of padding and helmets and actually think the game might be too rough if players used more equipment. "Human nature is not to hit as hard if no one is wearing pads," one rugger explains. Rugby games are played in two halves, each lasting forty minutes. Teams always meet to play two games consecutively, back-to-back. Again, playing a demanding physical sport like rugby for more than 160 minutes seems like an impossible task, but the ruggers love this idea. "It gives everyone on the team a chance to get into the game," they say. Rugby is slowly catching on in America. The sport is gaining an enthusiastic following among college teams and in independent ruggy "unions" organized on the British model. It has all the appeal of football, but it is simpler and requires much less costly equipment. Rugby is ready to be rediscovered.
The main purpose of this passage is to ______.
A．compare English and American sports
B．compare rugby to football
C．discuss the brutality of rugby
D．provide a brief introduction to rugby

听力原文：M: It all seems like yesterday, doesn't it, darling？
W: Ah. Yes, it does. How time flies! (19) And it's twenty years ago.
M: Twenty years since I first brought you here. Do you remember？ This same table in the comer near the bank.
W: Not the first time, Stan. (20)The first time we came here we sat over in the comer by the window.
M: I remember now. Of course, we were over there by the window. I remember that night.
W: Oh, Stan, you're thinking of other times after we got married. That first night Marrio was away with the Flu, don't you remember, and we got the young waiter, Trevor.
M: Oh, yes. Trevor was the one with glasses and black teeth. And he had a stutter, didn't he？ You were doing your best not to laugh.
W: What a memory! No, Stan, Trevor was the dark-haired, tall boy with the very deep voice, the one you said would make a good singer.
M: Did I？ Strange, how I've forgotten that. There you were, across the table, in that lovely, long dark red dress of yours, with that golden handbag.
W: Oh, Stan, you are impossible! I've never had a dark red dress, not a long one anyway, or a golden handbag. (21) That night I had a green dress on and my handbag was brown.
M: Oh yes, yes, yes. But there's one detail that I do remember clearly. You had a golden belt on.
W: No, Stan. The belt I wore that night was brown like the handbag.
M: Oh, dear, I'm not doing very well, am I？ I know why I'm not, though. I was so... so excited that I probably didn't notice your clothes.

A．20 years ago.
B．25 years ago.

The word robot mad robots themselves are less than 100 years old. But humans have been dreaming of real and imaginary copies of themselves for thousands of years. Early people made little human statues out of clay. And they cut wood and stone to look like humans.
What is the future of robots？ The goal of scientists is to create a true humanlike robot. Some experts have described this robot of the future as one that can act independently with the physical world through its own senses and actions. Humans have the ability to see, hear, speak and solve problems. Engineers have built robots that have one or two of these abilities. But it takes a number of big expensive computers to make the robots work.
The biggest problem in creating a humanlike robot is copying human intelligence. The way the human mind works is almost impossible to copy. A simple computer can solve mathematical problems far beyond the ability of even the smartest human mind. But the human mind is better than a thousand supercomputers at speaking, hearing and problem solving. Seven American and Japanese companies are working to develop the senses of sight and touch for robots. The development of these senses will make robots much more useful.
However, the most important human ability—the most difficult to copy—is problem solving. An intelligent robot must be able to change the way it acts when it faces an unexpected situation. Humans do it all the time. Computers must do it for robots. This means computers must have a huge base of information about many things. They must be able to find quickly the needed information in their systems. And they must make choices about how to act. So far, this is beyond the ability of computers.
According to the passage, however intelligent a robot may be, it ______.
A．acts as an ordinary animal
B．is nothing but a machine
C．is viewed as a modern myth
D．is regarded as a human being
第10题
The only solid piece of scientific truth about which I feel totally confident is that we are profoundly ignorant about nature. Indeed, I regard this as the major discovery of the past hundred years of biology. It is, in its way, an illumination piece of news. It would have amazed the brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment (启蒙运动) to be told by any of us how little we know and how bewildering seems the way ahead. It is this sudden confrontation with the depth and scope of ignorance that represents the most significant contribution of the 20th century science to the human intellect. In earlier times, we either pretended to understand how things worked or ignored the problem, or simply made up stories to fill the gaps. Now that we have begun exploring in earnest, we are getting glimpses of how huge the questions are, and how far from being answered. Because of this, we are depressed. It is not so bad being ignorant if you are totally ignorant; the hard thing is knowing in some detail the reality of ignorance, the worst spots and here and there the not-so-bad spots, but no true light at the end of the tunnel nor even any tunnels that can yet be trusted.
But we are making a beginning, and there ought to be some satisfaction. There are probably no questions we can think up that can’t be answered, sooner or later, including even the matter of consciousness. To be sure, there may well be questions we can’t think up, ever, and therefore limits to the reach of human intellect, but that is another matter. Within our limits, we should be able to work our way through to all our answers, if we keep at it long enough, and pay attention.
第11题：According to the author, really good science ________.
A) would surprise the brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment
B) will produce results which cannot be foreseen
C) will help people to make the right choice in advance
D) will bring about disturbing results
