2、Robotic Highway ConesA University of Nebraska professｏｒhas developed robotic cones ａｎｄ　barrels. These robotic cones ａｎｄ　barrels can move out of the way, ｏｒinto place, from computer commands made miles away. .They can even be programmed to move on their own at any particular part of the day, said Shane Farritor, an assistant professｏｒof mechanical engineering at Nebraska.Fｏｒexample, if workers arrived at 6 am, the cones could move from the side of the highway to block off the lane at that time. ａｎｄ　they can return to the original place at the end of the day. "It just seems like a very good application fｏｒrobots," Farritｏｒsaid. "The robotic cones would also help remove people from hazardous jobs on the highway putting barrels ａｎｄ　cones into place," Farritｏｒsaid in a report on his creation. Word on the idea began in 2002 using a National Academy of Sciences grant . The fund allowed Farritｏｒto work on the project with graduate students at Nebraska ａｎｄ　his assistant Steve Goddard.The robots are placed at the bottom of the cones ａｎｄ　barrels ａｎｄ　are small enough not to greatly change the appearance of the construction aides. "It would look exactly the same," Farritｏｒsaid. "Normally there\'s a kind of rubbery, black base to them. We replace that with a robot. .Farritｏｒhas talked with officials from the Nebraska Department of Roads about how the robots would be most useful to what they might needThe robots could come in handy following a slow-moving maintenance operation, like painting a stripe on a road ｏｒmoving asphalt, where now the barrels have to be picked up ａｎｄ　moved as the operation proceeds. "That way you don\'t have to block off a l0-mile strip fｏｒthe operation. " Farritｏｒsaid.While prototypes have been made, they are not in use anywhere. Farritｏｒsaid he has applied fｏｒa patent ａｎｄ　is considering what to do next. ____ He is also thinking about marketing the robots to roads departments ａｎｄ　others across the country which may benefit from them.【单选题】

A.ａｎｄ　they can return to the original place at the end of the day.

B.He is thinking about starting a small business.

C.Farritｏｒwas "Inventｏｒof the Year" in 2003.

D.Word on the idea began in 2002 using a National Academy of Sciences grant

E.We replace that with a robot.

F.These robotic cones ａｎｄ　barrels can move out of the way, ｏｒinto place, from computer commands made miles away.

正确答案:B

答案解析:本段的第4句“He is also thinking about. . . ”中的also是一个重要的线索，说明前面一定出现过“he is thinking”。但是在前面两句中没有找到，那么本段中要恢复的句子一定是 B句。

3、EducationWhen a teacher finds a way to make a real difference in the students\' lives that\'s what education is all about. Let me tell you a story. Back in 1944 we had a new student named Roger, he was the first black student in our school, ａｎｄ　everyone had some pretty ignorant views on the subject of black people . The other kids weren\'t bad children; they were just copying their parents, ａｎｄ　well, I\'m afraid most of their parents ____ . But as you know, when you\'re twelve years old, you\'re just starting to have your own opinions about things, ａｎｄ　I knew this could be a very important moment in their education. I knew I could make a real difference, not only to little Roger , but to all the other kids, too, if just handled it the right way.I decided I had to try to make Roger into someone special. Not like a teacher\'s pet, I wanted the other children to start seeing him as a human being , not just a dark shape in the back of the room. So I went after him with questions in every class. He was a bright little boy, so it was easy enough fｏｒme to establish him as a smart person with real value. I was pretty pleased, because I could see Roger becoming more confident, ａｎｄ　although the other kids were still not very friendly, at least they stopped being so nasty to him.But you know what really changed everything? One day I could see Roger\'s mind was wandering: ａｎｄ　without thinking I threw an eraser in his direction. I only meant to get his attention, but the eraser hit his hａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　sent his pencil flying. The whole class roared! ａｎｄ　afterwards, of course, all the kids went up to Roger to laugh with him about it . That\'s how he became an individual, someone special, to talk to ａｎｄ　make friends with ａｎｄ　that\'s how I became "Dead - Eye Bean".【单选题】

A.was giving him a hard time

B.had some pretty ignorant views on the subject of black people

C.while they were enjoying the same class

D.not only to little Roger

E.start seeing him as a human being

F.all the kids went up to Roger to laugh with him about it

正确答案:B

5、Sleeping GiantRight now, an eruption is brewing in Yellowstone National Park. Sometime during the next two hours, the park\'s most famous geyser, Old Faithful, will begin gurgling boiling water ａｎｄ　steam. Then, an enormous fountain will shoot high into the air .Old Faithful is not only a spectacular sight; it\'s also a constant reminder that Yellowstone sits on one of the largest volcanoes in the world. If you\'ve never heard of Yellowstone\'s volcano, you\'re not alone. The volcano is so inconspicuous(不显眼的) that few people know it exists. Yet it has erupted three times during the last 2 million years. ａｎｄ　one of those eruptions spewed enough volcanic ash ａｎｄ　other debris to blanket half the United States.Yellowstone\'s volcano is sometimes called a "super volcano," ｏｒextremely large ａｎｄ　explosive caldera volcano. Three calderas make up more than a third of Yellowstone National Park. This super volcano formed over a hot spot, an extremely hot area in Earth\'s mantle. John Valley, volcano professor, said that as the crust moves across a hot spot, the hot spot melts a. section of the plate moving over it, forming "one volcano after another. "The Yellowstone hot spot melts thick continental crust, which may cause catastrophic eruptions. According to experts the eruptions that created each of the three calderas in ａｎｄ　around Yellowstone National Park were larger than any other volcanic eruption in recorded history. The most recent eruption, which happened 640,000 years ago, produced at least l,000 cubic kilometers of ash ａｎｄ　debris, which blanketed most of the western half of the United States. _____.Geological evidence shows Yellowstone has blown its stack every 700,000 years ｏｒso. "If nature were truly that regular ａｎｄ　reliable, we would be clue fｏｒanother eruption soon," said Valley. "However, these processes are subject to variability, so we don\'t really know when the next eruption will happen. "While the active geologist processes at Yellowstone do pose some risk to tire public, they also make it a unique treasure. It is the volcanic energy that powers the geysers ａｎｄ　hot springs, creates the mountains ａｎｄ　canyons, ａｎｄ　generates the unique ecosystems that support Yellowstone\'s diverse wildlife.【单选题】

A.Three calderas make up more than a third of Yellowstone National Park.

B.The first Yellowstone eruption, 2 million years ago, released more than double that amount of ash ａｎｄ　debris.

C.The volcano is so inconspicuous(不显眼的) that few people know it exists.

D.Then, an enormous fountain will shoot high into the air.

E.While the active geologist processes at Yellowstone do pose some risk to tire public, they also make it a unique treasure.

F.Yellowstone National Park attracts the interest of geologists the world over.

正确答案:B

答案解析:在选项B的“more than double that amount of ash ａｎｄ　debris”这个短语中，有关键词 double that amount，说明前面句子一定有一个数字。检查后，发现这个数字是1,000 cubic kilometers of ash ａｎｄ　debris，可以断定，选项B的句子就是要放回原位的句子。
