A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip a Washington, D.C Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar. But the blind woman smiled and said, “ I don’t want your money. I just want you to help me find the post office.”

In a moment, I realized what I had done. I judged another person simply for what I guessed she had to be. I hated what I saw in myself. This incident reawakened my belief in humility(谦恭),even though I’d lost it for a moment.

   The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant(移民). I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15. I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister, and a strong, serious-minded mother. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.

In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice(偏见). I remember a time, at the age of 17- I worked as a waiter, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me. I have also witnessed(当场见到) the same treatment of my family and friends, so I know what it’s like, and I should have known better.

But now, living in my A American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washingtoin, D.C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open. By the way, I helped that lady to the post office. And in writing this article, I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.

Robots and humans will soon be living in harmony(和睦). A singing robot is being taught to create jazz with a human in a project.

Antonio Chella from Italy is working with a Telenoid robot. To start with, the Telenoid will be trained to follow the movements and simple sounds made by a human singer, and to connect music with different emotional states. Chella then plans to see if the robot can use these connections to create music.

Intelligence is often regarded as the ability to find connections between the existing things. But Chella suggests that a conscious(有意识的) creature should be able to go a step further and introduce new connections tat result in the creation of something new.

Some jazz musicians say that they should have a mental library of musical phrases so that they are able to combine them in new ways. More importantly, however, this combination happens in a state that is similar in a sense to dreaming. Chella wants to copy these states in a machine.

“This work raises interesting questions about the link between consciousness and music making,” says Philippe Pasquier, a a musician and computer scientist. But he is skeptical about whether a robot musician needs a physical body.

Pasquier argues that the robots are faced with two challenges(挑战). Software that can copy Bach has already been developed. But interpretation(演绎)includes human’s different tastes and judgments. “What made the Beatles famous was not so much their works, but the fact that the interpretations of the works were wonderful,” he says.

It is not yet clear how a robot would go about interpreting music in a new way. But by copying humans and then learning to sing, Chella’s robot could provide clues.

What seems to be important is that human composers often listen to lots of music made by others. So Chella;s robot had better listen to those jazz standards first.

28. Which of the following is the robot’s first step before it tries to create jazz?

A. Living with human beings in harmony.

B. Connecting actions with human’s emotions.

C. Copying a human singer’s movements and sounds.

D. Learning to communicate with human beings freely.

29. The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 5 could be replaced by “       “.

A. doubtful                        B. worried                             C. certain                       D. concerned

30. What can we know about the robots like Telenoid from the text?

A. They are household robots.                                       B. They can talk with researchers.

C. They are faced with two challenges.                          D. They will become human singers.

31. What can be concluded(推断出) from the text?

A. Chella’s robot needs a physical body to make music.

B. How to interpret jazz is a piece of cake for Chella’s robot.

C. A new kind of software should be developed to copy Bach.

D. Chella’s robot should listen to much jazz to create something new.

Having a year-round comfortable climate and being close to several European countries, many thought that Paris was the perfect location for Europe’s first Disneyland. But culturally speaking, Paris was probably the least logical choice. This is because France is known for its reputation of smirking(自鸣得意地笑) at anything American-an attitude called “anti-Americanism”.

However, Disney opened a park in Paris I 992 anyway. How has it managed to survive for so long in a country that some thought may not welcome it?

According to National Public Radio, “America creates a danger to everything the French value highly.” For example, France is famous for its fancy cuisine(菜肴) and people there usually spend a long time over meals. Ut American fast food-hotdogs and hamburgers, to name two-introduced a completely different dining style. And in the film industry, while French culture values low-plot and high-art films, Hollywood’s fast-food-style film productions may seem of low taste in the eyes of the French.

“In the land of Louis XIV’s real Castle of Versailles… why do we need the fake one of Sleeping Beauty?” is the reaction of many French people toward the US theme park, according to The Baltimore Sun Newspaper.

There used to be doubt over whether the Disney magic would work in France. But this doubt has been proved unnecessary now that the park has been standing for 25 years. And according to The Telegraph, Disneyland Pais was isited by nearly 15 million people last year, half of whom were French.

France is changing. Slowly, its way of life is beginning to resemble (与……相似)that of the country it loves to hate,”  commented The Economist.

Today, even though French people are still seen as “cold” and proud of their own culture more than anything, they are already part of the trend of globalization and there is no getting out of it.

“At the core(核心), America gives us the same effect as ice cream.” French journalist Jacqueline Remy once wrote in L’Express magazine. “It makes us sick, but we keep asking for it.”

32. What is te article mainly about?

A. How French people hold an “anti-American” attitude.

B. A look at France’s changing attitude toward US culture.

C. The characteristics of French people and their unique culture.

D. How Paris was the perfect location for Europe’s first Disneyland.

33. What are the examples in Paragraph 3 used to show?

A. French people have a better taste in films.

B. France is famous for its cuisine and movies.

C. American culture is important to the French.

D. American culture may threaten French culture.

34. Which of the following statements is true about Disneyland Paris according to the article?

A. Most French people refuse to visit it.

B. It mixes American and French cultures.

C. It is a popular tourist attraction for the French.

D. It was designed to look like the Castle of Versailles.

35. What can be concluded from the last three paragraphs?

A. French people are no longer proud of their own culture.

B. French people are completely open to American culture.

C. Most French people consider globalization a bad influence.

D. American culture is having an influence on French people’s lives.

.There are a lot of different people in he world, but despite(尽管)our differences we all want to get along. Humans are social beings, and we enjoy being treated nicely. Getting along with someone, regardless of (不管)their passions, isn’t about being their best friend or sharing all their hobbies.  36  .

It is not your job to change any one else. Let other people live how they want to live. You can only change how you interact(沟通)with people. If you do not like how someone acts, you can arrange things so that you interact with them as little as possible.

Keep your sense of humor.

A little laughter goes a long way, and a smile eases tension(紧张), while a frown can create tension. If someone makes fun of you, try t laugh it off.   39   Be mindful of your facial expression. If you are always cheerful and optimistic, people will cheer up when they see you coming.

Do things for others.

Being kind is its own reward. It could be as simple as bringing in hamburgers for people or offering to help someone who is struggling to carry something.     40   .

A. Try to interact with others.

B. Never try to change people.

C. Laughter is the best medicine.

F. To start a conversation, it is important to listen first, especially when you are in a group.

G. This will show you care about others and this will also make them want to be around you.

I feel like I’m always running around. Life, in its gentle way,   61  (try) to slow me down to stop, look at, and listen to the beauty which surrounds us every day.

Several days ago, as I rushed down the street, I found myself behind a woman in a wheelchair. Not   62    (intend) to rush past her on a crowded street, I slowed down and stayed behind her.
