After the fun and games of the Robocup is over, the technologies developed for scoring winning goals is then transferred to a number of other more useful applications such as developing robots that can be used in search and rescue in large scale disaster.文章大意：机器人足球比赛的现场的情景。每年在美国的佐治亚大学都举办机器人足球大赛，来自世界各地的机器人会在这里一展身手。1The first paragraph is mainly about _.Athe features of robotic football playersBa part of an interesting science fictionCa report on a football game in a newspaperDa scene of the 2007 Womens Football World Cup答案：A推理判断题。第一段主要介绍了机器人的特征。2The INCORRECT description on Robotcup 2007 is _.Ait will be held in Georgia Tech University in the USBrobots from a few countries have joined in the festivalCrobotic football players have ever achieved bestDthe sizes of robotic football players are different答案：B细节判断题。第四段的“.robots from all over the world”可知，机器人是来自世界各地的。B项所述与事实不符。3What do the scores of the robosoccer stars prove?ARobosoccer stars are equal to football players in skills.BRobosoccer stars will defeat the human world champions.CRobosoccer stars understand the basic knowledge of the game.DRobosoccer stars have the pace of the famous stars.答案：C细节理解题。从倒数第三段的最后“.these robosoccer stars certainly have a grasp of the games fundamentals”可确定正确答案。4The main idea of the last paragraph is that _.Arobots can be used to search for and save victims in accidentsBthe advanced robots can defeat other players in a gameCthe robots with artificial intelligence know how to pass ballsDthe technology developed for robots can be used in other fields答案：D段落大意题。这一段主要介绍了在研制机器人的过程中所得到的技术会在社会上的其他领域得以应用。5What would be the best title for the passage?AWorld Cup for robots kicks offBRobots join in the world cup footballCRobotic soccer stars are popularDRobots promote the popularity of football答案：A标题归纳题。本文主要介绍的是世界各地的机器人在美国参加足球比赛的情况。B项表示机器人参加世界杯，这里不是世界杯，而是专门为机器人举办的足球比赛；C项表示机器人足球运动员明星受人们欢迎；D项表示机器人促使足球的流行，均不符合主题。BInstead of hitting the beach, fourteen high school students traded swimming suits for lab coats last summer and turned their attention to scientific experiments.The High School Research Program offers high school students guidance with researchers in Texas A & Ms College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Jennifer Funkhouser, academic adviser for the Department of Rangeland Ecology and Management, directs this fourweek summer program designed to increase understanding of research and its career potential.Several considerations go into selecting students, including grades, school involvement and interest in science and agriculture. And many students come from poorer school districts. Funkhouser says, “This is their chance to learn techniques and do experiments they would never have a chance to do in high school.” Warner Ervin of Houston is interested in animal science and learned how to tell male from female mosquitoes. His adviser, Craig Coates, studies the genes of mosquitoes that allow them to fight against malaria and yellow fever. Coates thought this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.The agricultural research at A&M differs from stereotypes. Its “molecular(分子)science on the cutting edge，” Funkhouser says. The program broadened students knowledge. Victor Garcia of Rarcia of Rio Grande City hopes to become a biology teacher and says he learned a lot about chemistry from the program.At the end of the program, the students presented papers on their research. Theyre also paid $600 for their workanother way this program differs from others, which often charges a fee.Fourteen students got paid to learn that science is fun, that agriculture is a lot more than milking and plowing and that research can open many doors.文章大意：为了培养未来的科学爱好者，the High School Research Program启动了。6The research program is chiefly designed for_.Ahigh school advisers from HoustonBcollege students majoring in agricultureChigh school students from different placesDresearchers at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences答案：C细节理解题。由第一段“fourteen high school students”可知，这项活动是针对高中生的。7It can be inferred from the text that the students in poorer areas_.Afound the program useful to their futureBcould often take part in the programChad little chance to go to collegeDshowed much interest in their high school experiments答案：A推理判断题。由第三段最后“.this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.”可推知。8When the program was over, the students_.Aentered that college Bwrote research reportsCpaid for their research Dfound ways to make money答案：B细节理解题。由第五段第一句话可知，学生们要写调查报告。9What would be the best title for the passage?AA Program for Agricultural Science StudentsBA Program for Animal Science StudentsCA Program for Medical Science LoversDA Program for Future Science Lovers答案：D主旨大意题。由文章大意可知。D项具体简洁。111
