26、In today’s world, robots serve people as first-responders, companions and problem-solvers. And you find them in various places from the operating table to the kitchen and classrooms. Advances in artificial intelligence allow robots to perfect important functions beyond human capabilities.
As the older population desires to stay in their homes, effectively designed robots are needed to help make this demand a safer and more sustainable(可持续的)option. Another change in health care is that robots have already been used in over 20,000 operations. Surgical(外科的)robots like the da Vinci Surgical Systems are great examples of cutting-edge robotic technology. Besides, instead of going to a brick building to see a physician, patients will be checked by robots.
At home, household robots can help people save time. You can schedule a warm meal to be ready when you return from work. Robotic cookers can steam, fry, slow, cook and bake as long as you set them up. These robots are likely to develop into more advanced versions in the upcoming years and could change the look and feel of our homes.
As we know, a single teacher doesn’t have the ability to meet the needs of personalized learning for every student in a classroom. This is where computer-based learning comes into play; it doesn’t replace the teacher but allows students to learn at their own pace. Robots will continue to boost personalized learning. The human-like robot NAO works to form bonds with students and comes with senses of natural interaction, from listening, speaking, moving and connecting with students.
Today, robots of all types are being designed to reduce workload, complement human skill sets and enable professionals to focus on more important activities. Robots are meant to make human life easier and offer a more comfortable future. As technology advances and becomes more affordable, it is expected to see more changes and more industries embracing robots and all they can do to boost our standard of Living.
【1】What do we know about surgical robots?
A．They are to be put into use soon.
B．They can fully replace physicians.

27、Hearing loss is unavoidable, but listening to loud music when you’re younger can make it worse. To reduce your risk of hearing loss via loud music, learn why and how it can cause hearing loss, and just how loud is too loud.
Hearing loss occurs in four ways: conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, mixed hearing loss and auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder. Noise-induced (噪音诱发的) hearing loss is a type of sensorineural hearing loss.
Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when your inner ear becomes damaged. In the case of noise- induced hearing loss, most of the damage affects the cells of tiny sensory hairs in your inner ear.
When those cells get damaged or die, the electrical signal that your auditory nerve sends to your brain changes.
Noise-induced hearing loss can be acute or severe, and it can be temporary or permanent. You might be familiar with acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss, even if you didn’t realize what was happening at the time.
Acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss can occur from attending a loud concert or sporting event, going to a gun range without earmuffs or being near an explosion. It can make noises sound “stuffy” or far away, especially when talking on the phone or in a crowded room. Repeated exposure to those loud situations can eventually lead to permanent hearing loss.
Noise levels from earbuds and headphones can get as loud as 139 decibels, according to the journal Noise &Health, far greater than the recommended range of everyday sound exposure, which is 60 to 85 decibels. And the average level of noise from headphones, with the volume turned all the way up, is 94 to 110 decibels. For context, 60 decibels is about the volume of an average conversation, and 130 decibels is about the noise level of a rock concert. 85 decibels is considered the maximum volume at which you can listen to sound for eight hours without damaging your hearing. So if you were to listen to music from your headphones for eight hours a day, listening at a volume louder than 85 decibels can cause permanent damage to your ears.
Unfortunately, the relationship between decibels and time isn’t linear (线性的). For every three decibels, safe exposure time gets cut in half, according to the CDC. At 88 decibels, you can only safely listen for four hours; at 91 decibels, just two hours.
【1】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Noise-induced hearing loss belongs to sensorineural hearing loss.
B．Noise-induced hearing loss is always severe and permanent.
C．Occasional exposure to the loud situations can lead to permanent hearing loss in the end.
D．Listening to music from headphones for long at any volume won’t be harmful to your ears.
【2】In which of the following situations is acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss more likely to occur?
A．Participating in a heated debate.
B．Attending a rock concert.
C．Going to a gun range with earmuffs.
D．Watching an explosion at a distance.
【3】In terms of safe exposure, how long can you safely listen at 94 decibels?
A．Two hours.
B．Half an hour.
C．One and a half hours.
D．One hour.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A．Loud Music Damages Hearing
B．How to Prevent Hearing Loss
C．How Loud Is Too Loud
D．Music and Hearing
28、 For all the athletes, ages play an important role in their lives. Athletes all have their “golden years”. For Argentine superstar soccer player Lionel Messi, who turned 32 earlier this year, “his best days are already recorded in the history books,” an article by news network RT said.
However, Messi is still a surprising person. This year on September 24, he won his sixth FIFA Men’s Player of the Year award. No one has won this award as many times as he has.
His win has come with some debate. Many expected the award to go to Liverpool defender (防守球员) Virgil van Dijk, who was named as the UEFA Men’s Player of the Year in August.
In addition, Messi’s Argentine national team has not done so well. They lost the semi-finals of the Copa America tournament (锦标赛) in July and what’s worse, they played poorly in the World Cup last year.
However, Messi himself is still playing at a very high level. He scored 51 goals in 50 games last season. He continues to set records, such as earning the most La Liga and Spanish Super Cup titles in the history of club Barcelona.
“I believe he should have won it. He carries Barcelona on his back, which he has done for years and years,” British soccer player Darren Bent told Sky Sports. Even his critics admit that he is still a powerful player. “Messi is clearly still as strong and powerful a goal-scoring threat as he has been throughout his career,” the RT article said.
Messi himself is confident about his future. “My idea is to continue here for as long as I can perform well and my body allows me to do that,” he said in an interview for The18.
【1】What do we know about Messi?
A.He is still in his “golden years” as a soccer player.

29、While a female politician or first lady can use her clothing to create a favorable image, male politicians don't have as many fashion choices to play with, But Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau seems to have discovered a goldmine - his socks.
He's been seen wearing"statement socks".at many public events. For example, during a NATO(北大西洋公约组织) meeting in Brussels in May, Trudeau wore one blue sock and one pink, both with the NATO symbol printed on them. And in June, he wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves a national symbol of Canada --- when he appeared on a TV show.
The New York Times editor Vanessa Friedman praised Trudeau's play on his socks as"clever
"Socks are subtle enough not to be distracting, but visible enough that you can't miss the point, she wrote, "Rarely have a man's ankles said so much."
One example is a pair he wore during a meeting with Enda Kenny, then the prime minister of Ireland, in Montreal on May 4. During their meeting, Trudeau wore Star Wars socks-simply because that day happened to be Intemational Star Wars Day. If this pair of socks sent out any message, according to Vogue magazine reporter Emily Farra, that message was just that he has a quirky side and loves George Lucas films, " she wrote.
However, some say that 45-year-old Trudeau's unusual sock choices show a childish side of the prime minister that proves he isn't mature enough to be the leader of a country.
But Friedman doesn't see it that way. "The socks have been a source of pride and applause on an international scale-a symbolboth of Mr Trudeau's ability to embrace multiculturalism and of his position as a next-generation leader not bound by old traditions. "she wrote. They have opened up possibilities for the future.
【1】Trudeau wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves to __________.
