Delivering Food by Drone

A Singapore restaurant plans to use drones (遥控飞机) to transport food and drinks from the kitchen to a wait station near customers’ tables.

Infinium Robotics, the Singapore company that’s developing the drones for restaurant chain Timbre, has spent the past two weeks testing the technology at the restaurant before it opens each night 21 business and hopes to have it in place by the end of the year.

But how does the drone know where to hover (盘旋)? What if someone bumps into the drone or is standing in its way? “There’s no chance at all 22 it will hit anything,”says Infinium Robotics chief executive Junyang Woon.

The drones automatically charge while 23 (wait) in the kitchen. 24 the chef puts an order on the drone, he hits a button on a keypad and the drone automatically flies to one of two wait stations. Sense-and-avoid technology 25 (build) into the drone won’t allow it to land at the wait station if anything is in its way. The drones are equipped with sonar (声纳系统) and an infrared sensor (红外线传感器), too.

A waiter then removes the food or drink from the drone and hits a button 26 sends it back to the kitchen. The drones, weighing a little over five pounds, 27 carry just over four pounds of food. Infinium Robotics is working on a model that will carry twice as 28 (much) food.

“Its job is to help the waiters to reduce some of their boring tasks, ” Woon said. “If they let the robots 29 (do) the job, they can concentrate on interacting with customers to bring about higher customer satisfaction and dining experience.”

Since it drew recent media attention, Woon 30 (hear) from resorts and restaurants in 10 countries, including the United States.

Section B

Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note

FDA OKs Genetically Modified Salmon for Human Consumption The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Thursday approved genetically modified salmon (转基因的三文鱼), the first such altered animal allowed for human consumption in the United States.

The government had tried to 31 approving the fast-growing salmon for more than five years due to consumer concerns about eating genetically modified foods. But the agency said Thursday the fish is safe to eat.

In announcing the approval, the FDA said that there are “no biologically 32 differences in the nutrition of AquAdvantage Salmon compared to that of other farm-raised Atlantic salmon.”

AquAdvantage Salmon was created by the Massachusetts-based company AquaBounty. Ron Stotish, the company’s CEO, said in a statement that the fish is a “game changer that brings healthy and nutritious food to consumers in an environmentally 33 manner without damaging the ocean and other marine habitats.”

The fish grows twice as fast as normal salmon, so it reaches 34 size more quickly. It has an added growth hormone (激素) from the Pacific Chinook salmon that allows the fish to produce growth hormone all year long. The engineers were able to 35 the hormone active by using another gene from an ocean pout (a kind of fish) that acts like an “on” 36 for the hormone. Typical Atlantic salmon produce the growth hormone for only part of the year.

There is no evidence that the foods would be unsafe, but for some people, it’s an ethical (伦理的)

37 . Some people have promised not to sell the sa lmon, and it’s still unclear whether the public will

38 an appetite for the fish if it is approved. Genetic engineering is already widely used for crops, but the government until now has not considered allowing the consumption of modified animals. Although the potential benefits and profits are huge, many people have doubts about controlling the genetic 39 of other living creatures.

Critics worry that it could cause human allergies (过敏) and the eventual extinction of the 40

salmon population if it escapes and breeds in the wild.

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

More Parents Shifting Careers to Achieve Work-life Balance

As a television news host, Cynthia Demos’ schedule made her home life a challenge. Working nights and weekends meant she rarely put her 3-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter to bed, or spent Saturdays at the park. So, three years ago, Demos began testing the waters to see if operating her own business making marketing videos would create an option for more 41 time.

Last month, Demos took a leap. Instead of renegotiating her 42 , she left her job to take her venture to the next level — building her own video production/media training company. It’s a career shift on a path to work-life balance that more 43 are making.

New research shows the top reason why people leave their jobs is to 44 opportunities with a better work-life balance. Those who make the 45 say there almost always is a main cause, either work-or home-related. It could be a life-changing event like the birth of a child, or it could be a new demanding boss, change in job responsibilities, or too many missed milestone events. It might even be a more 46 job offer.

For Denie Harris, the main cause was the attraction of a better 47 situation for a mom with young daughters. Harris had been marketing director for two companies in South Florida when an opportunity came her way to hold a similar position at her daughters’ school. It was a decision that required 48 all factors. The upside included seeing her children during the workday and sharing the same 49 with them. The downside

was leaving the corporate world and earning less. “Everything in life is a give-and-take,” Harris says. “For a mom, working at your children’s school is the best possible place to be.”

In the 50 to achieve work-life balance, working mothers having been “quitting” jobs for more than a decade, choosing to stay at home with their children when 51 possible. But today, both men and women are making job changes, choosing work options that better fit their 52 lifestyle. The shift often means serious consideration of 53 , including salary, advancement and fulfillment.

Doug Bartel, who left his job as a TV news producer more than a decade ago, says that what working fathers often look for is predictability and control over their schedules. They are starting their own law firms or becoming self-employed consultants to gain that 54 .

Big salaries aren’t necessarily the golden handcuffs(手铐) they used to be. With the traditional 40-hour workweek becoming out of date, a survey of nearly 9,700 full-time workers by the global firm of Ernst & Young found that most parents are willing to make 55 and financial concessions (让步)for work-life balance.

41. A. balance B. business C. family D. entertainment

42. A. issue B. contract C. future D. contribution

43. A. employers B. employees C. children D. parents

44. A. give up B. seek out C. act on D. substitute for

45. A. change B. mistake C. difference D. effort

46. A. budget-friendly B. female-friendly C. family-friendly D. business-friendly

47. A. work B. living C. security D. education

48. A. identifying B. understanding C. describing D. weighing

49. A. idea B. feeling C. value D. schedule

50. A. struggle B. permission C. decision D. ability

51. A. physically B. medically C. financially D. logically

52. A. past B. desired C. interesting D. modern

Section B

Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

（A）

At first glance Esther Okade seems like a normal 10-year-old. She loves dressing up as Elsa from “Frozen”, playing with Barbie dolls and going to the park or shopping. But what makes the British-Nigerian youngster stand out is the fact th at she’s also a university student.

Esther, from Walsall, an industrial town in the UK’s West Midlands region, is one of the country’s youngest college freshmen. The talented 10-year-old enrolled at the Open University in January and is already top of the class, having recently scored 100% in an exam.

“It’s so interesting and super easy,” she laughs. “My mum taught me in a nice way.” She adds: “I want to finish the course in two years. Then I’m going to do my PhD in financial maths when I’m 13. I want to ha ve my own bank by the time I’m 15 because I like numbers and I like people and banking is a great way to help people.”

And in case people think her parents have pushed her into starting university early, Esther disagrees. “I actually wanted to start when I was seven. But my mum didn’t agree.” After three years of begging, Mother Efe finally agreed to explore the idea.

Esther has always jumped ahead of her peers. Her mother noticed her daughter’s gift for figures shortly after she began homeschooling her at the age of three. Initially, Esther’s parents had enrolled her in a private school but after a few short weeks, the usually-energetic youngster refused to go back to that school because the teachers didn’t let her talk in class. In the UK, education is not compulsory until five, so Efe started to do little things at

home by teaching basic number skills but Esther was miles ahead. By four, her natural talent for maths had seen the eager student move on to algebra (代数学) and quadratic equations

(二次方程式).

And Es ther isn’t the only maths miracle in the family. Her younger brother Isaiah, 6, will soon be sitting his first A-level exam in June.

56. Which of the following makes Esther Okade different from her normal peers?

A. She is the youngest college student in the UK.

B. She goes to university at a much earlier age.

C. She often gets full marks in maths exams.

D. She loves acting as a university student.

57. From the passage we can learn that _____.

A. Esther thinks her parents expect too much of her

B. Esther cannot adapt herself well to college life

C. Esther asked to go to university even earlier

D. Esther dislikes being taught at home

58. What might be a main factor that has led to Esther’s being a maths genius?

A. The gene from her family.

B. Her course in the university.

C. The criticism from her teachers.

D. Her mother’s homeschooling.

59. Esther can be described as a girl who _____.

A. is ambitious and has a clear goal

B. is creative and loves exploring the unknown

C. is rebellious but ready to help others

D. is energetic but reluctant to challenge herself

Unless you are like Nasty Gal’s founder Sophia Amoruso, the passwords you use to access your email and the endless other accounts you need for work aren’t filled with intention. With increasing security requirements, it’s likely your word/number combinations are becoming even less memorable. But new research suggests it may not be long before you won’t need to memorize passwords.

“Brainprint”, published in Neurocomputing, reveals that the brain’s reaction to certain words could be a unique identifying code — like a fingerprint — that could eventually replace passwords.

In a small experiment, the researchers measured the brains’ signals of 45 volunteers as they read through a list of 75 acronyms such as FBI and DVD. The word -recognition response differed so much between each participant that a second experiment using a computer program could identify each one with 94% accuracy.

It’s not enough to feel totally secure, but promising enough to hint at the future of securing sensitive information.

The advantage of using such a biometric system (生物识别系统) is that it can be used for continuous verification (验证), New Scientist points out. Passwords or fingerprints only provide a tool for one -off identification . Continuous verification could in theory allow someone to interact with many computer systems at the same time or even with a variety of intelligent objects, without having to repeatedly enter passwords for each device.

As Hollywood has illustrated, it’s simply a matter of cutting off a finger to steal that person’s identity. “Brainprints, on the other hand, are potentially cancellable,” said Sarah Laszlo, assistant professor of psychology and linguistics at Binghamton University and co -author of the study, “So, in the unlikely event that attackers were actually able to steal a brainprint from an authorized user, the authorized user could then ‘reset’ their brainprint.”

Until now, brain signals have been a challenge to understand. This experiment leaped over the obstacle by focusing on the brainwaves from the specific area that reads and recognizes words. The signal is therefore clearer and easier to measure.

The problem, so far, is that the brain signal is still not as accurate as scanning someone’s fingerprint, and

initially requires sticking diodes (二极管) on your head in order to get a read. That’s ok, according to Zhanpeng Jin, assistant professor at Binghamton University and coauthor of the study, because brainprint isn’t going to be mass-produced any time soon. He says the researchers foresee its use at places such as the Pentagon, where the number of authorized users is small, and they don’t need to be continuously verified the way you do to access your mobile device or email.

Better keep your memory sharp, at least a little while longer.

63. In paragraph 5, “one-off identification” refers to the identification that _____.

A. happens as part of a regular series

A School That Can Educate Us All

Christos Porios, 16, lives in a small Greek city. “My mother’s a teacher and my father’s a mechanic,” he explains, adding that neither is knowledgeable about computers —especially compared with him. 67 Porios was taking a free class in machine learning offered by Andrew Ng, a professor at Stanford University, over an online platform Ng developed with his colleagues. Drawing on what he learned, Porios was able to participate in the International Space Apps Challenge, a virtual hackathon (编程马拉松) using data from NASA and other government agencies.

If one teenager in one small city can become a genius hacker through an online course, does it mean the world has changed? We have been hearing about the potential of online education for decade s.

68 A number of online education platforms have appeared, featuring professors from top universities

offering free courses.

69 Ng was amazed. “It would take me 250 years to teach this many people at Stanford,” he says. And so, just one month into the course, Ng and his Stanford colleague, Daphne Koller, decided to leave their faculty posts (教职) and dive into online teaching full-time. In April, they launched their company, Coursera, with a $16 million round of venture funding. So far, it has managed to team up with 35 colleges in nine countries.

To Ng and Koller, Coursera’s mission is simple and yet grand. That is to teach millions of people around the world for free, while also transforming higher education.

According to Ng, the world’s top 20 universities enroll only about 200,000 students. There are million more who could participate in classwork at the higher level, but most of them are far from any of the leading universities. 70

Koller says Coursera’s total registration has hit 15 million. Porios, the young Greek, is only one of those registrants. His hope is to study in Germany or England someday. He is even toying with the idea of taking classes at MIT or Stanford — but this time in person.

IV. Summary Writing

Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Fun Offices Make Workers Happier?

In order to make their employees happier, companies around the world have been busy installing play equipment in the workplace. Table football, computer games and action figures have become common in some workplaces.

Despite all this effort, unfortunately, work still makes people unhappy. According to a study by the London School of Economics, the place where people feel most miserable is work.

To proceed with an emphasis on being happy, however, other emotions are crowded out. Anger, sadness, anxiety and uncertainty all become a no-no. Such a ban on negative emotions can be emotionally bad for employees. A number of studies have shown that being able to express a range of positive and negative emotions is important, particularly when people are dealing with difficult experiences.

Besides, being constantly on the lookout for happiness may actually drive happiness away from us. Scientists have found that when we talk about how important happiness is, we become less likely to find it, even when we have experiences that usually make us happy.

Wanting to be happy at work is fair enough, but being forced to be happy at work can be troubling. If companies were genuinely interested in making their employees happy, they would perhaps look at some more “down-to-earth” interventions (务实的干预). A simple step would be to stop interrupting workers with all sorts of pointless demands such as long emails and unnecessary forms. A study by Harvard Business School found workers felt most satisfied on days when they were able to focus on a piece of work and make meaningful progress on it.

In short, if companies really want to make their employees happier, they should think long and hard before pointless restructuring.

Dear Mr. Wang,

Recently I have been informed that the television station is receiving/seeking practical advice from the audience on determining a brand-new variety programme. I am pretty in favor of such measure because today’s media is filled with too many similar kinds of programmes that follow a newborn concept, resulting in numerous programmes of the same kind. Here I want to convey my own opinion on it.

I would entitle my program with the name of “You Are the Genius”, which aims at teenagers in Shanghai. With the advancement of comprehensive assessment criteria, more and more students are eager to know about everything besides what they learn in schools. The establishment of such programme can beneficially promote their willingness to absorb knowledge in a relatively-acceptable way because it is presented on TVs, not in a forceful way. In addition, since the students are more or less in the same age, especially peers and friends, they may be more interested in them and in the long run can cultivate their sense of competitiveness. Such situation can be realized through a more exciting programme mode, which involves three stages. The first stage is competition in schools, and then the winners come to the second round, in which schools from the whole city compete on a larger scale. Finally the contestants are invited ti have the final race on TV. Typical contents of the programme can vary, or it can be determined by the audience.

I would like to hear from you and your sincere and practical suggestion are highly appreciated.

Yours,

Chen Fang

Listening Comprehension

Section A

Directions: In Section A, you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers. At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.

1. W: I’d like to get the flat tire changed and have a thorough check-up on the engine.

M: No problem. I’ll call you when it’s all done.

Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?

2. M: Excuse me, but do you have a single room with bath for tonight and tomorrow night?

W: Well, sir, we haven’t any singles left. But we can let you have a twin-bedded room for the same price.

Q: What’s the woman’s job?

3. W: Where do you want me to drop you off?

M: Right here is fine.

Q: What will the man probably do next?

4. M: It’s 5 to 10. We can get to the station in another half an hour.

W: I’m glad we won’t miss the train this time.

Q: When will they be at the railway station?

5. M: Gary insists on buying the food for the picnic.

W: That’s pretty generous. But shouldn’t we at least offer to share the expense?

Q: What does the woman suggest they do?

6. M: Hello, this is Dr. Martin from the Emergency Department. I have a male patient with a broken ankle.

W: Oh, we have one bed available in ward 3. Send him here and I will take care of him.

Q: What are the speakers talking about?

7. W: Congratulations, Tom. I heard you got a job with the Wilson Company.

M: Hmm, thanks, Professor Watts. But all I’ve got so far is only an interview next week.

Q: What does the man imply?

8. W: Ever since your girlfriend moved to Bridgeport, you are always driving there. How many trips a week do

you make?

M: I have lost count. But I can do it with my eyes closed.

Q: What does the man mean?

9. W: My brother is coming this weekend and we can dine out on Saturday night. Any suggestions?

M: I don’t know the restaurants around here that well. You know a better place to go than me.

Q: What does the man mean?

10. M: Good news. I’m not going to need surgery after all. The doctor says I can start working out again soon.

And maybe play soccer again in a few weeks.

W: Terrific. It would be great if you could get back in shape in time for the national championship.

Q: What does the woman mean?

Section B

Directions: In Section B, you will hear several longer conversation(s) and short passage(s), and you will be asked several questions on each of the conversation(s) and the passage(s). The conversation(s) and the passage(s) will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.

People in Norway are the happiest in the world. That finding comes from the 2017 World Happiness Report.

Over 1,000 individuals were asked to rate their own happiness levels on a scale of 1-to-10. People in Norway had an average happiness rating of 7.537. That is just a little higher than people in Denmark, with a rating of 7.522.

The report shows the six happiest countries are all in northern Europe. Norway had been the fourth happiest country last year, while Denmark was rated number one.

This year, Canada is the seventh happiest, while New Zealand and Australia are in eighth and ninth place.

The United States came in 14th place, with a happiness rating of 6.993. That is one step lower than last year.

The report said the least happy country was the Central African Republic, one of the poorest areas in the world.

While the study’s question is simple, the social scientists worked hard to understand why some people feel happy, and others do not. They decided six factors were partly responsible for one’s happiness. The six were: national wealth, length of life, honesty in government, freedom to make life choices, generosity and having a strong social network.

(Now listen again, please)

Questions:

11. Which country was the happiest country last year?

12. According to the social scientists,which situation may contribute to one’s happiness?

13. What can be learned from the passage?

Questions 14 through 17 are based on the following passage.

You are entering the workplace with a special kind of enthusiasm. I love it. But, there is one piece of advice I wish someone would have told me at your age: your learning has just begun.

Your first job may not be attractive, and you may be surprised how little it has to do with what you learned in college, but pay attention — you will do your most intense learning here. Your first few positions will help create

a foundation of knowledge and experience that will significantly influence the rest of your career.

You may even be asked to do a job that doesn’t agree with your “5-year plan”. Take the job. If you love it, you may find a new path. If you don’t, you can still take away plenty of useful knowledge.

You may make mistakes. And I hope you do, because even greater learning will come from your mistakes! When you first enter the workforce, you typically take on positions where the consequences of your errors are less severe than later in your career. So be brave, take risks and allow yourself to fail a bit.

Finally, remember that your career is in your hands. Pursue your unique passions and dreams and make your own path.

(Now listen again, please)

Questions:

14. Whom is the passage aimed at?

15. What does the speaker mainly want to tell us?

16. Which of the following might the speaker agree with?

17. What might be the speaker’s advice if you can only get a job you don’t really want?

Questions 18 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

W: Hi, Tyler. What’s up with you? You look unhappy.

M: Well, I didn’t pass the ball enough in the basketball game. But what really upsets me is that Caleb shouted at me for playing badly. I don’t think he had to act like that.

W: But you should have told him that.

M: I thought if I started screaming too, that would just make everything worse.

W: I agree. That kind of emotional release feels good at first, but it usually causes more problems.

M: Exactly. It hurts people’s feelings and can give you a reputation for not being able to control your emotions. W: But it’s still important to express your opinions. You should respect yourself enough not to let people treat you badly.

M: So what do you think I should have done?

W: First of all, you understand he was right, so it would have shown maturity to admit your fault. Second…

M: You think I should have apologized when Caleb was the one who was…

W: Second of all, you could have calmly said that you didn’t appreciate his approach.

M: Do you really think he listens when he is so angry? I don’t think talking to him would have done any good. W: It might get him to think twice before doing it again. And if he doesn’t, you are still the bigger man, and your teammates will recognize that. All right?

M: Yeah. I didn’t think of that. Thanks.

(Now listen again, please)

Questions:

18. What was the main cause of the man’s unhappiness?

19. Why didn’t the man shout back during the game?

20. What does the woman mainly suggest the man do?

I’m interested in driving and would love to attend driving classes with you. If you wonder why I choose driving classes instead of second foreign language, below are my reasons. To begin with, after three years’ hard study in academic subjects, it’s high time that we try something different. Language learning is nothing different, given that we have already learned English for years. Driving is not necessarily easier than our studying at school, but it’s a good way to relieve us from the intense atmosphere. Next, if we are talented enough and make as much effort as we do with our academic study, we will able to get the driving license within one month, or even sooner. Thus we shall have almost 2 months left in the summer vacation, for other plans like traveling, speaking of which, here come the last point. How nice would it be if we can arrange a self-driving tour one or two weeks before the university enrollment. It will be an exciting and unforgettable experience for us. Looking forward to your reply!

上海英语历年一二模考试作文赏析 2013届上海英语一模徐汇区 试题： 假设你叫李华，你的同班同学小明觉得自己的手机太旧，想买个最新的iPhone 5，可是他 的父母不同意，为此他很苦恼。请你给他写封信，谈谈你的看法。 注意：短文中不得出现考生姓名、校名及其他相关信息，否则不予评分。 Composition A As for Xiao Ming’s behavior, I think it is really silly for him to ask for a mobile pho ne like iPhone 5. It is even sillier to be upset for his parents’ turning down. As far as I’m concerned, students’ top priority should always be studying. He/she should always focus the attention on the study rather than thinking about playing or following the trend. 5What’s more, it is mentioned that Xiao Ming wanted to change his mobile phone simply because he thinks that his mobile phone is out-of-date, which, in my humble opinion, thinks his behavior nothing but ridiculous. Even if we are rich now, never can we forget to be economical in reality. Since it’s not broken or out of order, there is no need to change. (128 words) Composition B Dear Xiao Ming, I’ve heard that you are suffering from your parents’ not allowing you to buy the iPhone 5. A s your classmate, I felt a pity that you’re struggling to get your dream realized. But, at the same time, I really don’t think buying iPhone 5 is such a good option, especially for you. 5 You know, youngsters of your age are all using iPhone 5 now. It has already become the mainstream. Do you think using iPhone 5 is really innovative? Definitely not! As the new generation, we need to develop our own ideas instead of following others’ steps. What’s more, since your parents disapprove of your buying iPhone 5, why not trying other brands? In my opinion, other brands are far better than simply iPhone 5. 10 If you have more questions about choosing mobile phone, feel free to contact me via email. I’ll be more than willing to pull you out of your misery. Yours sincerely, Zhang Lin-lin (160 words) Composition C Dear Xiao Ming, It is said that your parents don’t allow you to buy the iPhone 5 in place of your old cell phone. And you are upset simply because it. As for me, I think that is quite understandable. Young kids like us are always trend-followers. Thus, we should definitely feel free to buy
