We received a text from our son-in-law, Joe Levanti, that Melanie was about to give birth. Tom and I sprang from our chairs suddenly. Its a tradition in our immediate family to wait at the hospital for a birth. This would be Melanie and Joes first child.“You take Lizzy out before we leave, and Ill be waiting for you in the car!” I told Tom. I started the car and waited impatiently. I saw my husband walk out of the front door- but then out shot Lizzy and she was running down the street at great speed.My husband ran after the dog, and I followed in my car. “Lizzy! Lizzy!” we shouted as fear filled our heart. We chased her up and down our Bellwood Avenue. “Shes running onto Wireless Road!” we both screamed with fear. Lizzy dashed back and forth in the busy street. My husband kept up his chase on foot. I shouted to my husband, “Tom! Be careful when you cross the street!”Within minutes, traffic was actually stopped on Wireless Road. A half-dozen good people got out of their cars to help. Soon, she ran into a safer area and then back to our street. With the help of six strangers, we caught her within a few anxious minutes. Everyone cheered, and we thanked the helpers again and again.With Lizzy safely back inside, we drove straight to the hospital and were able to see our daughter in the delivery room. My husband and I are forever grateful to the strangers who might have saved Lizzys life and who enabled us to be there at the beginning of a precious new one.4Why was the author going to the hospital?ABecause she didnt feel herself that day.BBecause her pet dog was hit by a car.CBecause her daughter was ill in hospital.DBecause her daughter was giving birth at the hospital.5How did the author feel while Tom was running after the dog?AConcerned BImpatientCThankful DRegretful6Where was the dog finally caught?AOn Wireless Road BIn a safer areaCOn Bellwood Avenue DIn the authors car7What is the purpose of writing this text?ATo show us how they got back their pet dog.BTo tell us how they managed to see their daughter.CTo express their sincere thanks to the kind strangers.DTo tell us what trouble their pet dog has caused them.As more Europeans arrived in America 500 years ago, they were in such great need of the land that they and the Native American Indians battled constantly. By the end of the 19th century, most Indian tribes (部落) were moved to reservations. A lot of their children were taken away to boarding schools to learn to speak English. By the end of the 20th century, more than half of the Native Americans in the US were living in the cities. They gave up speaking their old tribal language and only used English. As a result, many Native American languages disappeared and with that their culture.Today some American Indian languages are usually spoken by the older members of the tribes who still live on the reservations. In North America there are 150-170 languages that have at least one speaker. One ancient language spoken by the Northern Paiute tribe has over 100 speakers.But the good news is that some of these people are keeping their culture and language alive. They are also receiving help from the National Geographic Societys Enduring Voices project, whose aim is to help languages around the world which are dying out. The team meets these “last speakers”. The experts interview them and they are recorded with video, pictures and so on. They also tell old stories which are written down in English so people can learn more about the cultures.Recording the language and culture is only part of the project. The next stage is to pass on the language to the next generation. The Salish tribe is an excellent example of how schools can help. The tribe lives on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana. Their language is spoken by about 50 people aged over 75. So now, the local people have set up a school. It has 30 students aged two to twelve during the day and there are also courses for adults in the evening.8Why did Europeans fight with the American Indians?ATo live in American cities BTo occupy more living spaceCTo have Indians speak English DTo make Indian cultures disappear9What does the underlined word “They” refer to in Paragraph 3?AThe experts BThe recordingsCThe Indian cultures DThe last speakers10What can we know about the Salish tribe?AIt has its own language school. BIt has given up speaking English.CIts next generation speaks English. DIts language is only learnt by adults.11What can be a suitable title for the text?ALearning American Indian LanguagesBResearching on American Indian LanguagesCSaving American Indian LanguagesDFinding Lost American Indian LanguagesIt is becoming increasingly important for researchers to closely monitor our ocean life. However, observing sea creatures up close is almost impossible since human presence scares them. Now, thanks to the The Soft Robotic Fish, also known as SoFi, researchers may be able to keep a close eye on the sea creatures.Built by MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), the white remote-controlled robot resembles the real fish, complete with a tail that waves from side to side. Though not the first autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) created to monitor the ocean, SoFi settles many of the problems that have blocked the usefulness of previous robot fish.Previous AUVs have had to be linked to boats because of radio frequency communications dont work well underwater. To overcome the problem, Director of the CSAIL Daniela Rus and her team used sound waves. The technology can travel greater distances allowing divers to pilot SoFi from up to 50 feet away.Also limiting the usefulness of traditional AUVs is the risk of collision. With the outside made of soft silicone (硅树脂) rubber and flexible plastic that keeps its inbuilt electronics dry, SoFi poses no such danger. “Collision avoidance often leads to unnecessary movement, since the robot has to settle for a collision-free path,” says Rus. “ In contrast, a soft robot is not only more likely to survive a collision but also could use it as information to form a more workable movement plan next time around.”During test dives, SoFi moved alongside the ocean life at depths of 50 feet for up to 40 minutes at a time, taking photos and making videos. The researchers say sometimes the fish would swim alongside the strange-looking robot-fish out of curiosity, while at other times they took no notice of its existence.While SoFi presently only records video, future versions will include sensors. The researchers also hope to make it more autonomous. “We imagine someday it might help us uncovers more secrets from the amazing underwater world that we know so little about,” says Rus.12What can we learn about SoFi?AIts tail is flexible. BIt is the first AUV.CIt is closely controlled. DIts presence scares sea animals.13What can be learned from paragraph 3?ASound waves travel faster than radio.BRadio does not work well underwater.CPrevious AUVs use radio to communicate.DA boat travels along with SoFi on the water.14How does SoFi differ from traditional AUVs?AIt is controlled above.BIt can avoid a collision.CIt can smartly adjust its movement plan.DIt is set for a collision-free path.15Where is the passage possibly taken from?AA news report. BA science fiction.CA social website. DA short biography.二、七选五Behind every great product is a great team.
