Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Why do human beings still risk their lives under ground doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It's an increasingly urgent question,given the recent highprofile(引人注目的) mining accidents in Sago,W。Va。,and Huntington,Utah.A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望) a day in the not.too。distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work。
One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie—Mellon University’s Robotics Institute。It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart.It used lasers to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines-some of the most dangerous work in the business.
The latest prototype(原型) is called Cave Crawler.It’s a bit smaller than Groundhog,and even more advanced。It can take photos and videos and has sensors mounted(装置) that can detect the presence of dangerous gases.Incredibly,the robot has a real sense of logic。If it comes across an obstacle(障碍物),it gets momentarily confused。It has to think through the process and where to go next,and sometimes it throws a fit just like a real person。
The biggest obstacle,though,is cost.The original research

project was federally funded,but that money has dried up,and it's not clear where future funding will come from。Partly for that reason,and partly because of advances in safety,mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past.Since 1990,deaths have declined by 67 percent,and injuries by 51 percent,according to the National Mining Association。
Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry.The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs,but don’t eliminate(消除) the need for human workers.

There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages。
On the last day of one voyage,the ship was in a small port.It was winter time,and the sea was very cold,so the captain said to his sailors,“If one of you stays in the water during the whole night,I will give him my ship。But if he comes out before the

sun appears,I shall get his wages。”
The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating,so they didn’t trust him.But then one of them,who thought that he was more clever than the captain,said that he would do it。He got into the water,and,though it was very cold,he stayed in it.When it was nearly morning,some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away。
“You are cheating,” the captain said to the sailor.“The fire’s warming you。\"
“But it's half a mile away!” said the sailor.
“A fire’s fire,” answered the captain.“I have won。\" The sailor came out of the water,and said,“Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages,but you can't cook a chicken.”
“I can,” answered the captain。
“If you cook this chicken,” said the sailor,“I shall work for you without wages for seven years,but if you can't,you will give me your ship.\"
The captain agreed,took the chicken and said,“Where's the fire? ”
“There it is,” answered the sailor.“On the shore.” “But it’s half a mile away,” said the captain angrily. “A fire’s fire,you said,” answered the sailor.“If it is enough to warm me in the water,it is enough to cook your chicken.”

一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右.
Jenny was the only child in her family。She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother。Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours,she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat,but it was not even possible for her,since she had nothing with her。She stood beside a stand for a while,watching the middle。aged seller busy doing his business.However,with no money in hand,she sighed and had to leave。
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked,“Hey,girl,you want to have the noodles? ”
“Oh,yes.。。but I don’t have money on me。。。” she replied. “That's nothing.I'll treat you today,” said the man。“Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles,whose smell was so attractive。As she was eating,Jenny cried silently.
“What is it? \" asked the man kindly.
“Nothing,actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears.“Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles,while my mother,drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me。She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
Hearing the words,the seller smiled and said,“Girl,do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you

thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby。Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her? ”
Jenny sat there,speechless and numb with shock;she remembered mother's familiar face and weathered hands。“Why didn't I think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted,but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home,Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home。
Paragraph 1:
Approaching the doorway,Jenny took a deep breath.

[参考范文] Paragraph 1:
Approaching the doorway,Jenny took a deep breath. When she
knocked at the door,she found the door was locked and her mother was not in.Tired and sad,she sat down in front of the house。“Where could my mother be? ” she wondered.“Was she still angry with me? \" Again,the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind。She remembered her rudeness to her mother.Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her,she felt rather ashamed,

and tears began to roll down her cheeks。
Paragraph 2:
A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised
her head and saw the familiar face of her mother。“Here you come!I’ve been looking for you,” she said,tired and relieved。Jenny couldn't help throwing herself into her mother’s arms。“Mum,I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” She expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude.Hearing this,her mother smiled,patting her back gently。
