He turns on the lights, air-conditioner and television. While you are having dinner, he cleans the floor. Before you go to sleep, he tells you the weather report, then reads you a bedtime story.Such thoughts are not just for stories. Now they can happen in the real world, as long as you have the robot Alpha 2. Alpha 2 was a star at the 2017 World Robot Conference(大会), which was held from August 23rd to 27th in Beijing. More than 150 universities and companies from across the world brought their robots to the event for show and sale. Some robots work in factories. Some robots go to outer space or under water for exploration. But the highlights(亮点)of the event were service robots.This kind of robot is the closest to our daily lives. From cleaning to teaching, music to sports, service robots have been used to do many kinds of jobs.Teo is a popular service robot, as well as an artist and music teacher. His 53 fingers help him play the piano well. He played John Lennons song Imagine at the conference.There is another service robot called Bestic. It acts as a human arm to feed people with a spoon. It can be a good helper for little kids, the elderly and those with difficulties using their hands.The scientists believe that it may not be far when every family has at least one service robot.（1）According to the passage, Alpha 2 is _.

But which one is better?The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions(说明) carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember.The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered.So, you see, either a rapid reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about speed of reading.1. Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read such things slowly or remember each important step and understand each important idea.3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.4. In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain(某些) pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.（1）What should be read rapidly?A . Directions for making something.B . Maths problems.C . Science and history books.D . Storybooks, newspapers, personal letters, etc.（2）What is the important thing you should keep in mind about speed of reading?A . To read as fast as you can.B . To fit your reading speed to your needs.C . To read as slowly as possible.D . To keep your reading at a certain speed.（3）Which title best gives the main idea of the passage?A . Something about Careful ReadingB . Be a Rapid Reader.C . How to Read?D . How to Be a Slow Reader?四、 阅读短文。 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整。Hip-hop Planet_Countries like France, Brazil and even Japan have their own hip-hop culture.
