Many animals use some kinds of "language". They use signals (信号)and the signals have meanings. For example, 1a bee has found some food it goes 2its home. It is difficult for a bee to tell 3bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it can do a little dancing. This tells the bees where the food is and4it is.

Some animals show5 they feel by making sounds. It is not difficult to tell if a dog is angry because it barks. Birds make several different sounds and6 has its meaning. Sometimes we humans make sounds in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh” to 7how we feel about something or we drop something on our feet.

We humans have languages. We have words. These words have meaning of things, action, feeling or ideas. We are able to8 each other information, to tell other people 9we think or we feel. By writing down words, we can remember what has happened or send messages to people far away.

Future astronauts could travel with emotional support robots

    To help astronauts of the future survive (幸免于) the mental (精神的) challenges that come with staying in space for quite a long time, space travelers‟ tasks could soon be accompanied(陪伴) by AI-powered, empathetic (有同理心的, 同感的) robotic helpers.

    Not only does space travel present astronauts with lots of physical stresses, spending months or years in such a physically demanding (要求高的) place with limited space and the same people can also raise many mental tests as well. According to MIT Technology Review, scientists are working to alleviate astronauts from some of the latter challenges by creating "an AI assistant that's able to feel human emotion and respond (做出反应) with empathy."

    While such a technology would prove itself useful by being able to predict the needs of the

crew members in space and "intervene (干预) if their mental health is in danger," it has the potential to be life-saving when humans choose to explore beyond Earth's gravitational field (引力场) and towards deep space.

    Though astronauts currently on the International Space Station have an intelligent robot to interact with called CIMON, it is short of proper emotional intelligence according to NASA CTO Tom Soderstrom. As a result, a team at the organization's Jet Propulsion Laboratory is working on a more complex (复杂的) emotional support companion that can control a spacecraft's functioning in addition to tracking the crew members‟ behaviours.

    Right now in the lab, an AI-equipped robot called Henry the Helper can be found walking around the grounds assisting visitors who appear confused or lost based on their facial expression. Two more emotionally intelligent robots are expected to be introduced later this year, one of which is said to be able to take part in conversations more complex than giving navigation(导航) assistance.

    The team's final goal is to make a companion named Fiona the Future a reality, an emotionally intelligent cross-platform system. Fiona, if all goes according to the JPL's plans, will help keep astronauts of the future stay mentally fit as they start their journeys to deep space.

Many people take running as a way to keep fit. They like to run in hot weather and enjoy the feeling of being wet through with sweat (汗) while running. Cold weather during winter months, with low temperatures and freezing cold winds, may keep people from running in the open air.

However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, running in cold weather helps improve one's performance. Many runners might find it easier to run in winter than in hot weather. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. In addition, lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is lower.

John Brewer is a professor of applied sports science at St. Mary's University in London. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room where summer and winter weather conditions are recreated. The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions and their biological measurements were recorded and studied.From the study, every movement runners make produces heat. The heat can be really damaging unless the body can lose it. One way in which people lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through sweat. The body also loses it by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin and it puts more stress on the heart, especially in hot conditions because it's much harder to lose heat when the outside environment is warm. As the result shows, running in hot temperatures results in 6 percent higher heat rates.

When running in cold conditions, the body does not have to work hard to move blood to the skin surface. Therefore, it requires less energy. The most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. Keep as dry as possible when exercising in low temperatures. Wear warm and light clothing to keep sweat away from your skin. So don't let winter weather keep you indoors. Simply get ready for the low temperatures and start running.

 从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多于选项),并将其序号填入第31-34小题,使短文意思连贯,然后回答第35小题。

How to Ask Someone to Hang Out

Asking someone to hang out can feel like a big step at the start of a new friendship. It may be a classmate or someone you met at a party. Here are our best tips to help you ask him or her to hang out.

Ask in an accidental way. If you have been planning to ask them for a while, take a breath and use your daily conversational tone(语气). {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. So when you ask them to hang out, it doesn't turn out to be embarrassing.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. You may have a hard time asking someone to hang out without a good reason. If you're asking someone you know you have a common interest with, use that to invite. Tell them it would be fun to do the activity together.

Be confident that they will say yes. It's no good to ask someone to hang out if you tell yourself they won't want to. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. If you are confident in yourself, the person will be more open when you ask directly.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. When you ask someone to hang out, make sure you have a few dates in mind when you know you're free. Offer those dates to the person and ask if they are free during any of those dates.

Invite someone to go wherever you're going. Anytime you're about to do something and you see someone you want to hang out with, ask them to join you. Since you are going to do it no matter what they say, it's not a big deal if they turn you down.

Even though it feels scary at first, follow the tips above and it will not be stressful to let someone know that you'd like to hang out in the future.

A. Try to make a direct ask.

B. Keep yourself relaxed and calm

C. Make plans for the following weekend

D. Use a common interest as a reason

E. Tell the person the time that works for you

What do you usually do when you hang out with someone?(10词左右) {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
