19、aring of forests forces many animals from their homes. They often flee the area in search of a new place to live. There is a big downside to that. Some of those animals are natural predators. They control pest populations. They can help to clear the fields of rats, mice, and other rodents that eat a

20、nd damage crops.This happened at one small farming village in Indonesia. After land was cleared for farming, rats and mice began appearing in large numbers. Villagers tried to target the animals by smoking them out and hunting them. But the villagers were unsuccessful.So, one farmer decided to try a

21、nother method- a natural one.Pujo Arto brought owls to his farm. Owls, after all, are experts at hunting rodents. It is what they do. And it worked! However, Pujo Arto didnt stop with his own field. He set up a Natural Predator Program. Now, owls are busy catching rats and mice in the fields around

22、the village of Tlogoweru. There is a huge upside: no need for chemical pesticides which can harm not only rodents, but other creatures.In 2011, the Indonesian man began setting up boxes where the owls live. He is also raising owlets in the village. After about four months, the young birds are releas

23、ed. These facilities have raised more than owls. They have also raised awareness in the community about the importance of owls. They raised awareness within their community by building homes for those owls. At the same time, government officials helped to create laws to protect those owls.In additio

24、n to controlling pests naturally, there is another upside to the program. His village is now a popular stop for eco-tourists.

28、f location，Christopher Intagliata reports.If you drive in a city，youve no doubt experienced the headache of circling block after block，cruising for parking.But scientists who study that phenomenon have a solution to free up more spots:“You make them more expensive，so people have to decide whether to

29、 park farther away and Pay less，or closer and pay more.”Itzhak Benenson，a system scientist at Tel Aviv University.San Francisco has piloted a program that raises parking rates based on demandand its been shown to reduce cruising.But the sensors required for those systems can cost millions of dollars

30、 to install and operate，Benenson says.So instead，writing in IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine，he and his colleague Nir Fulman describe an algorithm that can determine smart pricing，without the use of sensors.They tested it on the Israeli city of Bat Yam，near Tel Aviv.First，they divide

31、 the city into zones.They estimate the parking demand in each zone，by calculating the number of apartments and offices there.Then they take account of parking supply in the area，along with how wealthy potential parkers might be.Using that data，the algorithm suggested pricing for each zone that would

32、 guarantee a 90-percent occupancy rate of parking spots city-wide.Meaning 10 percent of spots were always available to drivers willing to pay the price，regardless of neighborhood.Of course，not everyone will agree that raising parking prices will reduce the press of parking.Last time Benenson propose

33、d hiking rates for city residents?“I got about 100 reactions on the web and 99 of them that said they have never heard such a stupid statement from the professors，and I should be punished and fired.”Eventually，he says，itll be up to cities themselves to estimate their residentspolitical appetites for

34、 an easier parking spot.1、What does the underlined word“them”in paragraph 1 refer to?AParking spots. BParking rates.CBusy neighborhoods. DNew algorithms.2、How does the new algorithm work?AAdopting different parking rates.BCounting the apartments and offices.CMaking farther parking spots more expensi

The robots carry meals, groceries and packages to homes and offices in this region just north of Seattle. They have appeare

37、d on the sidewalks of London, Beijing and other cities and communities worldwide. These machines must overcome pedestrian legs, naughty dogs and broken pavement, which raises some questions.These services are gaining attraction as a growing number of city residents expect immediate or scheduled deli

38、very for just about everything. Between 2017 and 2018 online retail sales in the U.S. increased by 16 percent. On the final step of all these deliveries, called the last mile, humans on bicycles, motorized scooters ( 電動(dòng)車) or large delivery trucks typically deliver packages. All the vehicles compete

39、for space on busy urban streets. “Deliveries are trending upwards in all crowded city centers, and if city and state leaders dont start thinking about creative solutions like robot deliveries, we can expect even worse traffic jams,” says Paul Mackie, director of a transportation policy research cent

40、er in Arlington.A study by this center found 73 percent of delivery vehicles in Arlington were parked outside of authorized areas, often blocking bike lanes and crosswalks. By moving the last step of deliveries from the road to the sidewalk, cities could reduce traffic jams and solve the parking pro

41、blem entirely, Mackie says.Companies such as Amazon are not developing this delivery technology simply to clear up urban traffic. Self-driving vehicles and sidewalk robots could cut down last-mile delivery costs in cities by as much as 40 percent, according to a 2018 report by a consultancy firm. A

42、delivery robot can cost thousands of dollars to manufacture, and most currently require human management and conservation. But in the long run companies that use autonomous delivery vehicles in the next several years could end up saving billions of dollars, the report stated.1、Why does Amazon introd

43、uce delivery robots ?ATo amuse its customers.BTo avoid pedestrians, dogs and broken pavement.CTo meet the increasing demand of delivering packages.DTo confirm the companys innovation spirit.2、What does Paul Mackie mean by his words in paragraph 2?ARetail sales in the U.S. increased fast.BDeliveries

44、stay steady in all crowded city centers.CRegardless of robot deliveries, traffic jams will remain the same.DRobot can help ease the traffic pressure.3、What can robots delivery bring to the city?ABlock bike lanes and crosswalks.BRelieve urban traffic as well as save delivery costs.CIncrease danger to

45、 pedestrians.DLead to traffic traffic jams.4、Which word can best describe the future of the robot delivery?AUncertain.BHopeless.CPromising.DUnacceptable.25（10分）Recently I paid a visit to Harvard University, where there are top class scientists and professors and the best academic system in the world

46、.I was pretty shocked when I first stepped onto the campus. Well, its not even really a campus. Its more like a district in a small town.Harvards main buildings are from the 18th century. They look very old and simple. You might even say theyre a little shabby. They dont fit the modern idea of unive

47、rsity at all. The buildings are surrounded by grass and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a medieval castle. But when I looked across the street, busy shops and in-fashion students made me feel like I was in the 21st century again. It creates a strong contrast and brings a special atmosphere

48、to the school.Our tour guide Gary took us around and told us: You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they host their graduation ceremony. They just set up tents and benches and have a very simple ceremony. Unbelievable! Who would think the most talented students just gra

49、duate on the lawn?I saw some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of pages turning, along with chirping of the birds, I felt very calm. There was no competitive feeling at all.Harvard has the worlds first computer in its science center an

50、d there are hundreds of high-end computers too. Its religion and the literature departments are also among the best. It is the perfect mix of tradition and new technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to study in.I hope one day Ill attend my dream schoolHarvard.1、The article is mainly ab

Here, some tips are given on how to go about it.A university degree is no _ of a job, and job hunting in itself requires a whole set of skills. if you find you are not getting past the first i

56、 employers give. Those who made the second interview might have been studying the same subject as you and be of _ ability level, but they had something which made them a _ match to the selectors ideal. That could be experience gained through projects or vacation work, or it might be that they were b

57、etter at communicating what they could offer. Do not take the comments at _ value: think back to the interviews that generated them and make a list of where you think the shortfall in your performance lies. With this sort of analytical approach you will eventually get your foot in the door.Deciding

58、how long you should stay in your first job is a tough call. Stay too long and future employers may question your _ and ambition. Of course, it depends on where you are aiming. If you are a graduate, spending five or six years in the same job is not too long provided that you take full advantage of t
