The robbery happened when maths professor Vinicio Sabbatucci, 58, was changing a tyre on an Italian motorway. Another motorist, who stopped to “help, stole a suitcase from his car and drove off.

Anonymity (匿名) guaranteed.Professor Sabbatucci received hundreds of calls from people hoping to trick him into handing them the cash. But there was one voice he recognized-and he arranged to meet the man in a park. The robber, a 35-year-old unemployed father of two, gave back the suitcase and burst into tears.

It will, for example, call relatives if the owner fails to get out of the bath.Cameras implanted in the eye-brows of the robot enable it to “see as it walks around an apartment. The images can be sent to the latest cellphones, which display the pictures.Wakamaru, which speaks with either the voice of a boy or girl, is also designed to provide panionship, greeting its “papa when he es home.It is the first household robot able to hold simple conversations, based on a vocabulary of around 10,000 words. It cannot only speak but can understand answers and react accordingly.Wakamaru will inform a security firm if there is a loud bang or if an unknown person enters the house while the owner is out or asleep. It can recognize up to 10 faces. But like most robots it cannot climb stairs.Mitsubishi Heavy Industry, which developed Wakamaru, adapted Wakamaru from robots it already makes to go around nuclear power facilities (设施). The idea to use the technology in the home came from a pany employee.The technology has gained nation-wide publicity in Japan among increasing concern over how to look after the ever-growing number of old people. The life expectancy of Japanese women has shot up to almost 85, the highest in the world.At the same time, extended families are being replaced by nuclear families.

Japanese-built Robot to help the OldCWhat would the world look like if it lost its battle against the greenhouse effect and global warming We are talking worldwide disaster, including hurricane, earthquake, tidal waves, floods and the beginning of the next Ice Age.This is the scene that faces those who see “The Day After Tomorrow, a new Hollywood sci-fi (科幻) movie. It is in the second place of US box office chart. Some say that the director, Roland Emmerich, has an uncontrollable desire to destroy the world, especially New York. In 1996, he made “Independence Day, in which aliens destroy earth. Two years later, he brought “Godzilla to the screen. This saw a giant monster appear in New York and almost tear the city to pieces.“The day after tomorrow shows disaster and destruction on a global scale all thanks to the weather.In the movie, Jack Hall, a weather scientist, is the first man to realize that a new ice age is ing. In one of several natural disasters, his son Sam became trapped in New Yorks Public Library when a tidal wave strikes the city. He is forced to fight rapidly dropping temperatures. And a pack of hungry wolves escaped from the zoo. Meanwhile, Jack must think of ways to save his son, himself and the whole world. He must follow a hard path north, as everyone else races south to live in warmer climates.This film also brings a direct attack on the refusal of the current US government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (散发). It is hoped that “The Day After Tomorrowmay encourage a change in the governments attitude towards environmental protection.49.

He found that people who drank little often had an obvious reduction in death rates.The study is still following the Danes but early signs are that such drinkers will live up to several years longer than heavy drinkers or teetotalers (禁酒者).Alcohol also reduced bloods tendency to form clots, a key factor in strokes and heart attacks. However, both benefits disappeared in heavy or binge (狂饮) drinkers.The British tended to binge-drink at the end of the week resulting in high blood pressure as they recover from Sunday to Tuesday. High blood pressure is strongly linked to increased risk of heart attack.Older research had suggested that it is only red wine that has health benefits, but the new studies point out that the effect can be seen with any alcohol.Oliver James, professor of medicine at the University of Newcastle, said the benefits of alcohol for older people were being clear. “Moderate alcohol intake does appear to reduce the risk of age-related disease including diabetes, stroke and heart disease, he said.53. Whats the main result of research about alcohol according to the passageA. It can prevent some diseases for middle-aged to drink regularly and properly.B. It will do good to women to use two drinks of beer a day.C. Different kinds of alcohol can benefit different people.D. Be careful to have drinks at weekends.54. Which of the following is true according to the passageA. Men love drinking more than women.B. It usually takes 24 hours to recover from a heavy drink.C. Its good drinking a few cups of wine a little now and a little then.D. All alcohol will bring benefit besides red wine.55. The author mentioned British in order to _.A. provide good example for drinkingB. show the result of drinkingC. give negative example for improper drinkingD. point out the cause of heart disease 56. How is the passage organizedA. IntroductionArgumentExplanationB. OpinionDiscussionDescriptionC. Main ideaparisonSupporting examplesD. TopicDetailed informationConclusionEAre you happy Do you remember a time when you were happy Are you seeking happiness today Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness. Some have put their heart and effort into their work. Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol. Most of their efforts have a root in one mon fact: People are looking for a lasting source of happiness. Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes many because they misunderstand the process and journey of finding it. I have heard many people say that, “Ill be happy when I get my new promotion. Or “Ill be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds. The list goes on and on. You probably have a few of your own you could add if you wanted.This thinking is dangerous because it presupposes that happiness is a “response to having, being or doing something. In life, we all experience stimulus and response. Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth. Response is when your heart beats faster, your palms get sweaty and you prepare to run. Today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A great paying job is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A loving relationship is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. This belief leaves us thinking and feeling: “Ill be happy whenIt has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy. When we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work. When we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships. When we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. Happiness is NOT a response rather, it is a stimulus.Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives. For unknown reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time. Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy.I have made only one simple rule for my own happiness: Every day above ground is a GOOD day. Therefore, I tend to have a lot of good (and happy) days continually.57. The second paragraph mainly tells us that people seek happiness _.A. in the same wayB. in different waysC. by working hardD. by taking drugs58. What does the underlined phrase “This thinking refer toA. The thinking of being promoted.B. The giving up of happiness.C. The process and journey of finding happiness.D. The misunderstanding of happiness.59. The writer strongly believes that happiness is _.A. a responseB. a stimulusC. a great paying jobD. an expensive car60. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _.A. tell people how to enjoy happinessB. encourage people to seek happinessC. express his attitude towards happiness D. criticize the wrong ideas about happiness第二节：在第61至65题中，Lucy, Tom, Bill 及其他的朋友们，the Bushes 和Mr. Head 正方案如何过暑假。阅读下面六个有关暑假活动的广告选项A、B、C、D、E和F，选出符合各人需要的最正确选项。选项中有一项为哪一项多余选项。_ 61.
