    Fastbrick Robotics，a company that specializes in （專攻） robotics，is responding to the increased demand for housing and a shortage of skilled construction labour with a bricklaying （砌磚） robot.The huge robot Hadrian X can lay a residential （住宅的） house from the ground up on site in a safer，faster and cheaper way.
   Hadrian X is not the first large-scale outdoor construction robot.The trouble is that nothing's happening outdoors.That's because some weather conditions like wind，rain and temperature variations can make life difficult for robots outdoors.Most robots can't adjust to small，quick changes in wind or temperature，which may lead to bricks being laid way out of position and get very dangerous.So now，any robot building has to be indoors in minutely controlled environments.
   Hadrian X has overcome this problem using the precision （精確） technology Dynamic Stabilisation Technology （DST）.The computer program measures environmental factors at a surprising rate of 2000 times per second，and then accounts for them in real time.Combine that with a 3-D printer style building process based on CAD modelling，and you'll get a robot that can lay bricks with a margin of error of just 1 millimetre and is much more precise than a human worker.
   Hadrian X has got other things going for it than just precise，though.It's also 15 to 20 times faster than human builders，and the use of CAD modelling reduces waste because every brick is planned and calculated.Plus，it removes the need for humans working at heights and in intensive labour.These aspects should lead to vastly reduced housing costs.Mike，CEO of Fastbrick Robotics，calls it a "social housing solution".
   Fastbrick's technological innovations （創(chuàng)新） may be pioneering.but that doesn't mean it'll all be smooth sailing.Bricklaying is an old industry as old as the oldest cities we know of.In terms of technique，there will not be a lot to change.After 5，000 years of doing the same thing，such a big change is sure to meet with some resistance and challenges. "All the concerns can be removed by the potential rewards because everybody wants this to work...It's an amazing thing to work in an organization where you have global support to be successful，" Mike said.

（1）What was the disadvantage of previous outdoor construction robots？
A
A

A．They failed to work well due to environmental factors.
B．They were restricted to building small structures.
C．They were unable to avoid the dangers of construction.
D．They would break down easily in rainy weather.
（2）How can DST ensure Hadrian X's working accurately？
D
D

A．By connecting it with a 3-D printer.
B．By creating CAD models with human workers.
C．By operating it with a responsible and experienced worker.
D．By reminding it to adjust the bricks' positions in time.
（3）What do Mike's words in the last paragraph imply？
C
C

A．He is going to improve old bricklaying skills.
B．The new technology challenges traditional beliefs.
C．He is positive about Fastbrick Robotics' future.
D．Fastbrick Robotics has removed the doubts of others.
（4）What's probably the best title for the text？
A
A

A．New robotics technology will change the construction industry.
B．A major breakthrough in handling natural disasters.
C．Approaches to guaranteeing construction workers' safety.
D．Hadrian X is threatening human workers.

1．Everyone knows that fish is good for health．（1）

But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home．Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year，but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home．Buying，storing，and cooking fish isn't difficult．（2）

This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way．
（3）

Fresh fish should smell sweet：you should feel that you're standing at the ocean's edge．Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh．（4）

When you have bought a fish and arrive home，you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately，but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two．Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one．
There are many common methods used to cook fish．（5）

First，clean it and season it with your choice of spices（調(diào)料）．Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound．（A larger one will take more time．）Then，it's ready to serve．

A．Do not buy it．
B．The easiest is to steam it．
C．This is how you can do it．
D．It just requires a little knowledge．
E．The fish will go bad within hours．
F．When buying fish，you should first smell it．
G．The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease．

2．What do you use your fridge for：It can not only keep your food cold，but also make ice and freeze food．But in the future smart fridges may do much more than you can think．They may tell you what food is inside，what food you need，what food is healthy for you，and even shop for you，too!
   Some companies are making online fridges which have a computer screen on the door．And it can be very useful that the computer is linked to a supermarket through the Internet．For example，when you finish your orange juice，you can put the empty juice carton（紙盒包裝） near the computer screen．The computer reads the bar code on the juice carton．Then it orders more orange juice from the supermarket．You can also use the computer screen to order other things from the supermarket．The computer screen has a series of things that are in the store．You can choose what you need．The supermarket will send the food to your home．
   Companies are making other kinds of "smart" appliances（電器），too．There is a new kind of microwave oven（微波爐） which has a computer memory．It can remember 365 different cookbooks．There is also a smart mixer that can remember cookbooks．Even it can test ingredients for you!
   Of course，sometimes these smart appliances don't work．When they do，they will tell you．And then they can call someone to fix them，too!

（1）Your fridges can do the following things except

．
A．keep food warm
B．make ice
C．keep food cold
D．freeze food
（2）What's the meaning of the underlined word "linked" in Paragraph 2？

A．Prepared．
B．Connected．
C．Offered．
D．Formed．
（3）Which is not true？

A．The oven can call someone to fix itself when it doesn't work．
B．The oven can store 365 cookbooks．
C．The mixer can test ingredients for you．
D．The mixer can help you clean the kitchen．
（4）What is the main idea of the text？

A．Online fridges have a computer screen on the door．
B．Fridges of the future will order food from the supermarket．
C．Smart appliances，like online fridges，can be very helpful．
D．People won't have to go to supermarkets to buy food in the future．

3．How to Work Out Your Worries by Writing
Something troubling you？You should write about it!Research indicates that people who write about a difficult situation often show improved mental and physical health.
   （1）

.It is a specific technique，and it's different from writing in a journal.The idea is to reflect honestly and thoughtfully on a particular challenge.
   Hundreds of studies over several decades have looked at the potential benefits of expressive writing.It can strengthen the immune system，including for people with illnesses such as flu，cancer and depression. （2）

   Expressive writing works because it allows you to make meaning out of a painful experience，experts say. （3）

Then translating that experience into language forces you to organize your thoughts.And creating a narrative gives you a sense of control.
   But expressive writing isn't a magical cure-all solution. （4）

.And people coping with a severe injury or depression may not find it useful to do on their own，without therapy （治療）.
   （5）

？Thinking or talking about an event can lead to reflecting，where you become lost in your emotions.Writing forces you to slow down.The mere act of labeling a feeling—of putting words to an emotion—can lessen the nervous activity in the threat area of the brain.Writing can increase someone's acceptance of his experience，and acceptance is calming.

A．Why write
B．What if you don't write
C．It can also help improve mood，sleep and memory
D．Expressive writing gave people the courage to face fears
E．It shouldn't be used as a replacement for other treatments
F．The first important step is to recognise what it is that is bothering you
G．Psychologists refer to writing about an unpleasant experience as "expressive writing"
