16、體雕像) for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resisting peoples attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person.Abdul, known as “Indias Statue Man”, has been performing his daily routine ever since 1985, soon after getting a job as a sec

17、urity guard. His boss had recently traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue-like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home. So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for a

18、round four hours. They werent allowed to talk or smile, eat, drink, or even shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces. In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job.Abdul isnt the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact th

19、at he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes. Once, a $ 155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle. But try as they might, no one has ever succeeded. Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home-coo

20、ked food, to keep his body in shape. But he claims yoga has been the biggest help. In the 32 years, Abdul has become a famous person in India and other Asian countries. Many Bollywood stars have come to witness this living statue and try to finally make him move, but none have succeeded.Abdul earns

21、about 10,000 rupees ($ 156) a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in his footsteps. Its just too stressful and taxing on the body. “Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the

Its instructive.CAn Italian company has told staff to stop sending any internal(內(nèi)部) emails for a week in an effort to reduce stress levels. Home textiles company

25、 Gabel, based in the northern Como region, appointed an expert to interview its employees about what their main concerns were at work, the local La Provincia di Como website reports. Many said that managing the huge volume of internal emails was a burden during the working day. That pushed the compa

26、nys management to propose a solution, which - somewhat ironically - was sent to all staff in an email. “Together we will begin the following experiment, which will take us back in time to when people talked more,” managing director Emilio Colombo wrote, declaring an “email - free” week until 13 Nove

27、mber. “We invite you not to use email for internal communications (between colleagues at the same location), in favor of a more direct and immediate contact.”The companys president, Michele Moltrasio, tells the BBC it hasnt been easy to stop such an “ingrained” practice, temporarily, but that employ

28、ees have welcomed the challenge. “They are rediscovering the pleasure of meeting and talking rather than writing,” he says. And that includes Mr. Moltrasio, who is avoiding emails along with everyone else. “Even if from next week we all go back to using email, these days of experimentation are very

29、worthwhile, to understand and rethink the methods and pace of working,” he says. Several recent studies have found that a high volume of emails raises stress levels at work. In 2013, researchers said that a full inbox led to peaks in peoples blood pressure and heart rate. And last year, a study at t

30、he University of British Columbia found that limiting email use during the day lowered peoples stress levels “significantly.”28. What did an Italian company do to reduce its employees pressure at work?A. Ask its employees not to send emails anymore. B. Launch a campaign to stop using emails temporar

31、ily. C. Ask experts to design a new way of communication. D. Interview employees about their concerns at work. 29. According to the passage, what does the underlined word mean in paragraph 4?A.

32、 the passage?A. Emails have been an outdated means of communication in the company. B. Employees dont communicate with each other so directly as they did in the past. C. It is quite easy for employees to stop using emails. D. Employees working stress is due to the large number of emails they deal wi

33、th every day. 31. What is the employees attitude towards this solution?A. Negative. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Reserved.DRobotic surgery is one thing, but sending a robot inside the body to carry out an operation is quite another, which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny ro

34、botic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut, the possibility of which has just got a bit closer.However, unlike the plot of one filmwhich featured a microscopic crew and submarine traveling through a scientists blood

35、streamthis device could not be put into blood vessels because it is too big. While other types of miniature swallowable robots have been developed in the past, their role has mostly been limited to capturing images inside the body. In a presentation this week to the International Conference, Daniela

36、 Rus and Shuhei Miyashita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology described a robot they have developed that can be swallowed and used to collect dangerous objects accidentally taken in.To test their latest version, Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita designed a robot as a battery hunter, which might see

37、m to be an odd task, but more than 3,500 people in America alone, most of them children, swallow the tiny button cells used in small electronic devices by accident every year. To start with, the researchers created an artificial esophagus (食道) and stomach made out of silicone. It was closely modeled

38、 on that found in a pig and filled with medical liquid; the robot itself is made from several layers of different materials, including pig intestine (腸), and contains a little magnet. This is folded up and wrapped in a 10mm×27mm capsule of ice. Once this reaches the stomach, the ice melts and t

39、he robot unfolds which is moved and guided with the use of a magnetic field outside the body. In their tests, the robot was able to touch a button battery and draw it with its own magnet, and during dragging it along, the robot could then be directed towards the intestines where it would eventually

40、be gotten rid of through the anus (肛門). After it, the researchers sent in another robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the site of the battery bum to speed up healing.The artificial stomach being transparent (透明的) on one side, the researchers can see the batteries and visually control the r

41、obots. If not, that will require help with the help from imaging system, which will be a bit more of a challenge, but Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita are determined to succeed.32. According to the passage, the robot operation will probably be able to _.A. travel through a scientist's bloodstreamB. pho

42、tograph the body to convey to the doctorC. enter the body to deliver drugs or make repairsD. operate on a person outside the body completely33. We learn from Paragraph 3 that _.A. the researchers did the experiment on a chosen animalB. the robot took necessary drugs besides a little magnetC. digesti

43、ng the swallowed batteries is difficult for childrenD. the actual size of the robot may be larger than the capsule of ice34. What may the experiment mean to the medical world?A. The surgeries will cost patients much money.B. Patients will suffer less for some surgeries.C. Fewer children will swallow

44、 the button cells.D. A robot will be invented travelling blood vessels.35. Which can be the most suitable title for the passage?A. An Experiment on Robot B. Tiny Robot, Significant RoleC. The Fantastic Robotic Voyage D. The Exploration of Robot Technology第二節(jié)(共5 小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填人空白處

45、的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Who Writes the Presidents Speeches?The president of the United States must be an orator. The president gives an annual address on the State of the Union and speaks at the inauguration and other special events. _36_ In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln spoke fewer than 300 wor

46、ds, but those words have become memorable. Franklin D. Roosevelt set the standard for later presidents in his 30 “fireside chats”, which aired on the radio and dealt with the Great Depression and World War II. Beginning with George Washington, American presidents often sought assistance with the con

47、tent and wording of their speeches, although they may have done the writing themselves. _37_ The first President to assign the task of speech-writing to an assistant, however, was Calvin Coolidge (1923-1929), the laconic president whose nickname was “Silent Cal”. The assistants name was Judson Welli

48、ver. (Today, there is a bipartisan organization for former presidential speech - writers, the Judson Welliver Society.) Since the middle of the twentieth century, the role of such speech-writers has expanded; the Executive branch now includes an Office of Speech-writing as part of its Department of

49、Communications, Speech-writing and Media Affairs. _38_ In his inaugural speech, John F. Kennedy urged Americans “Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country”. George H. W. Bush, in his inaugural speech, imagined community volunteers and organizations as “a thousan

50、d points of light”. 39 The process of drafting a presidential speech is long and complicated, and different presidents make different contributions. Some write large parts of the text and invite criticism from assistants and advisers; others ask speech-writers to draft a speech in its entirety, and

51、then they edit it to their own satisfaction. _40_ The final product, whatever the process, must “sound” like the person who speaks the words. As one speech writer recently said, “Our concern was not to writer a good speech, but to write a good speech that is also his speech.”A. Presidential speeches

52、 are a part of American history. B. Excellent writing skills are as available in business as they are in government. C. As time went on, the particular expertise of professional writers became more and more important. D. When people hear a president speak, they rarely think about others helping to s

53、hape the presentation. E. It is the writer, moreover, who often drafts the memorable words by which the public identifies a modern president. F. In any case, speech - writing is a back-and-forth process involving specialists in the subject area addressed, the presidents personal advisers, and (of co

54、urse) the president. G. Both of these phrases originate with the gifted men and women who worked as the presidents speech-writers.第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) （共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。Children everywhere enjoy playing with toys. A toy can be a simple ball, a game
