    When Goldie Nejat began developing robots in 2005, she spent much of her time knocking on an to let people know how her robots worked but few showed interest, "But now, it's different,"

    Says Nejať's "People calling from around the world ask when my robots are going to be ready. " Nejať's robots are designed to fill an increasing need: care—giving for the old. The population of the people over age 80 will be 426 million in 2050, three times larger than that now.

    Such robots could be especially useful for patients with Alzheimer's disease (老年痴呆症 ). They can help with everyday activities from preparing food to reminding(提醒) the patients of taking their medicine. They can also play games with patients to keep them active.

    Some have worried that care—giving robots might reduce (减少) human interaction (互动) and cause more humans to lose their jobs. "But the aim is to support human care, not to take the place of it" says Brian Scassellati. He has tested robots with different patients, and found that daily interaction with robots can help children with autism spectrum disorder r(自闭障碍症) improve social skills.

    As a field grows, scientists aim to understand human—robot relationships better. Do robots offer advantages because they don't have feelings and don't give opinions? Will patients lose interest?

    "One thing is clear," Scassellati says, "Robots can provide care for the customers and the need for that will increase in the future."

(1)、Nejat's robots are designed to______.
A、work in the factory B、make phone calls C、take care of the old D、knock on doors
(2)、The writer starts the passage by_______.
A、telling two stories B、comparing two facts C、raising a question D、giving an example
(3)、The main idea of Paragraph 3 is________.
A、what the robots can do B、what serious problems the robots cause C、what the old people can do D、what the old people think of the robots
(4)、According to Scassellati, we can infer that Nejat's robots
A、will have feelings soon B、can take the place of humans C、should be produced more D、won't give their own opinions

When I was a boy, I used to love walking in the woods around my home. My mom warned me several times 1 to travel so far that I would lose sight of the house. Being a naughty (淘气的) boy, 2 , I soon found myself walking further away, testing just 3 I could go into the woods without getting lost. After 4 my way once for two hours, though, I decided that I had better leave a trail (痕迹). 

The next day I decided to try it. I walked into the woods 5 the house was out of sight. Then I broke a small 6 on a young tree to mark the way I walked. I walked further and broke many sticks. In a few places where there were no small sticks, I 7 some daisies (雏菊) that were growing. After a while I finally got 8 and couldn't walk any further. Then I decided to go back. When I turned around, I easily found my way home, but instead of being proud, I felt 9 . I could see the trail of destruction(破坏) I had left in the woods going on and on. Looking at the broken sticks and dead 10 , I was ashamed. I promised never to do that again. Instead, I started to cherish(珍惜) my time alone in the woods with nature. I'd sit by the streams and listen to them 11 . I'd watch the birds and squirrels. I'd bend down to smell the flowers. And I even buried an acorn(橡树种子) or two 12 that one day an Oak might grow. 

There is an old saying that goes, "We will be known forever by the tracks(痕迹) we leave. " As I have grown older and wiser, I have done me best to never 13 a trail of destruction in my life as I did in the woods that day. I have instead tried to leave tracks of 14 , kindness and goodness and I have also 15 to show others that they can do the same and of course they have succeeded in doing this. May you always leave tracks of joy as you follow your own trail of love.

Why do the leaves on trees have different colors? What makes them change color?

Leaves use sunlight, water, and air to make food for the trees. This way of making food is called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is important to animals as well as plants. Some animals eat plants. Other animals eat these animals. 

Summer is playtime. For the leaves of many trees, however, it's work, work, work! The Sun is shining. The leaves are making food for the trees. The trees keep more than enough food deep inside. Leaves are green in summer because they are making food. Leaves also have orange, yellow, or brown colors inside them. During summer, those colors are covered by the green color. 

Many places get colder in autumn with shorter days and longer nights. Trees get less sunlight, so photosynthesis slows down. Over time, leaves stop making the green chemical(化学物质). The orange,yellow, and brown colors grow when that happens. 

Once it gets cold enough and ice appears at night, the trees drop their leaves. They do this to keep themselves safe. If the leaves turn to ice while still on the trees, the trees can be hurt. Trees that drop their leaves are bare(光秃秃) in winter. They use the food they save in summer to get through the cold days and nights. 

Spring comes before long. Ice and snow disappear and the rains come. The Sun shines, and tiny leaves grow from branches. Once again, the leaves use sunlight, water, and air to make food. The cycle begins again.

It was a sunny day in Barrie, and nine-year-old Stephanie Boddy and her friend Samantha Quinn were 1 on the grass near their apartment building and having a picnic on an old blanket (毯子). Little did they know, this 2 day would soon become a story of bravery (勇敢).

While making sandwiches and talking about school, Stephanie and Samantha saw 3 unusual above them. 4 , they noticed four-year-old Skyler Christou hanging out of a fourth-floor window, almost 5 . Without thinking, the girls took the 6 from under their picnic and ran to catch him. They were really scared, 7 they kept going. As Skyler fell, he turned over and over, and the girls kept their blanket 8 . "We moved back and forth as he came down," Stephanie said. "I was really scared." Skyler fell into the center of the blanket, and then fell onto the ground. 9 , he wasn't seriously hurt, all thanks to the blanket that 10 him.

The people in the town were happy for the 11 who did something great. Samantha's mom felt 12 and said, "I'm so proud (自豪) of the girls." Barrie's police officer heard about it and praised the girls, saying they were really 13 .

The whole town celebrated Stephanie and Samantha's heroic act, and the news shared their 14 . The two friends became local heroes and made people talk about child safety. They were really happy that a quick 15 turned a common day into a meaningful one.
