“We know already.” Eric said. “Why do you think we invited you? You've got the coolest bike in school. We want to see you ride it. We are going to help you learn!”
Pete couldn't believe what he was hearing. “WOW! That's great. I thought you were going to make fun of me.”
Dave__19__his head. “We are your friends. Why would we do that?”
“I don't know.” Pete shrugged. “I guess I was just too proud.”

The boys were hungry， so Mike's mom gave them tickets to get cotton candy， hotdogs， and some popcorn. While getting the food， Mike saw a boy about his age staring at the roller coaster. “That boy was standing there when we were on it said Mike. “I wonder why he doesn't go on the ride?” asked Robert. “Maybe he's frightened.”
The boy was by himself and looked poor. His shirt and jeans were torn and dirty. Even his hair was messy.
After the boys finished their food， they walked over to Mike's mom and told her about the boy. “Can we do something to help him?” asked Mike. “What do you want to do?” his mom asked. “Let's give him the spare tickets we have.” Mike and Robert went over to the boy and handed him a ticket for the roller coaster.
The boy gave them the biggest smile and said， “Thanks. That would be great!” “We have some spare food tickets， too.” “Wow， I would really like a hotdog， ”said the boy. He said his name was Chris and that he came to the amusement park often， but he didn't have the money to go on the rides. “I just watch everyone else and wish I could go on all the rides.”
Mike's mom came over and told the boys it was getting late， “This is Chris，” said Mike to his mom. “It's nice to meet you， Chris.” “Well boys， we need to head home.” They said goodbye to Chris and left.

Talking to yourself isn't just for humans-it's for robots too.
Italian researchers have designed a robot that can speak to itself， which enables users to hear its thought process and gain deeper insight into the technology's decision-making processes.
“If you were able to hear what the robots are thinking， the robots might be more trustworthy， ”study co-author Antonio Chella says. “The robots will be easier to understand for people who aren't technicians or engineers. In a sense，we can communicate and work with the robots better.”
Humans depend on inner speech when looking for clarity and moral(道德的) guidance， and it helps in the decision-making process. The researchers set out to see how this could affect robots， so they developed one called Pepper， and they trained it to set a table. They then gave it the ability to say， in plain English， what it was “thinking” when completing a task.
After studying the robot， the researchers found that Pepper is better at solving dilemmas(進(jìn)退兩難的困境) when using inner speech. One experiment saw a user ask Pepper to break table setting rules by putting a fork in the wrong place， which led to the robot
asking itself a series of self-directed questions. It then concluded that the user might be confused， so it confirmed(確認(rèn)) the request before continuing to use inner speech：
“Ehm， this situation upsets me. I would never break the rules， but I can't upset him， so I'm doing what he wants， ”Pepper said while putting the fork in the wrong place.
The user can understand Pepper's thoughts as it uses its inner voice to solve a dilemma， which the researchers say could lead to human-robot trust.
Comparing Pepper's performance with and without inner speech， Chella discovered that the robot had a higher task-completion rate when using self-dialogue. “People were very surprised by the robot's ability，” Chella says. “The approach makes the robot different from typical machines because it has the ability to reason， to think. Inner
speech could be useful in all the cases where we trust the computer or a robot for evaluation of a situation.”
Although hearing the inner voice of robots enriches the human-robot interaction some people might find it inefficient because the robot spends more time completion tasks when it talks to itself. The robot's inner speech is also limited to the knowledge that researchers gave it. Still Chella says their research lays the groundwork for more research into how self-dialogue can help robots focus， plan and learn.
27. According to the passage， Pepper can___________.
A. design a training task B. talk to itself
C. teach table setting rules D. read users' minds
28. What can we learn from the research?
A. The research aimed to help people understand robots' actions.
B. Inner speech helps the robot finish tasks more quickly.
C. The Italian researchers created a new language for robots.
D. The robot helped study people's decision-making process.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Robots：Learn to Learn B. Robots：Think Out Loud
C. Robots：Make Better Speeches D. Robots：Always Trust Humans
D
Like most people， you usually start work with the hope of being as productive as possible. Yet， as the day rolls on， you find your task list grow. What you set out to achieve in the beginning seems to get pushed to the side.
You're not alone. Many of us don't have a process to prioritize tasks and always feel like we're playing catch-up. We fail to decide what's the most important task even when everything on the to-do list feels important. But we can get ahead of the game and stay on top of deadlines with some simple methods to set priorities and manage our workload.
Here's a simple way to prioritize our daily tasks and focus(專注) on the work that matters most：Of all the things we now have the energy for， do the thing we're normally least likely to do. If we have two live frogs(青蛙) to eat for breakfast， the idea is to eat the ugliest one as early as possible.
There are several ways this trick(技巧) can benefit us.
Doing something we rarely(很少) do is energizing. You do a behavior like washing your windows that you never do. Having clean windows won't change your life but it challenges your conception of yourself. It influence show we see ourselves. Getting our body moving gives us energy and can improve our focus.
Unfamiliar behaviors often provide more chances to help us growth an familiar ones. When I write for a new publication， it's with a new editor. I get different feedback. I need to change my style to match the style of that publication， so I develop my skills. In this way we'll expand(發(fā)展) ourselves， our skills， and our future opportunities.
Some people react to anxiety by working hard on very comfortable behaviors but pay no attention to uncomfortable tasks that area higher priority. The way of prioritizing helps prevent us from doing that. It makes it harder to fool ourselves that we're being productive by doing busywork that's super comfortable for us but has little chance of changing our life.
Should we use this trick all the time? No. This is a good tip for when we've got energy， but we're swimming in thoughts about all the things we could do， and we're having trouble deciding and focusing.
Priorities are great. Knowing our priorities reduces stress， helps us focus and can also improve productivity and time management. But remember to be realistic about how much work we can actually do each day. When we prioritize our work properly， we're sure to have a good day.
30. What does the word “prioritize” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. To explain what's the most beneficial. B. To decide what should be done first.
C. To tell what's the most meaningful. D. To discuss what can be achieved.
31. The ugliest frog refers to_________.
A. the animal we fear most B. the to-do list we've messed up
C. what we are least likely to do D. what makes our day terrible
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Doing unfamiliar behaviors possibly improves our skills.
B. Doing energizing behaviors shows how we see others.
C. Doing things we rarely do leads to poor focusing.
D. Doing comfortable things changes our life.
33. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A solution to reduce our stress. B. Ways to help us focus and decide.
C. A trick to increase our productivity. D. Advantages of developing our skills.

Blindness needs not prevent people from excelling
A video clip of Xiong Linghao， an 18-year-old blind girl playing Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata in an international youth piano competition in Shanghai， went online.
Xiong Linghao， who started learning the piano at age 6， said her favorite star is Ludwig van Beethoven， who began to suffer from hearing problems in his 20s and later went completely deaf.
Their physical challenges led both of them to form a connection with the world through music， said the 18-year-old from Mianyang， Sichuan Province， who was born premature(早產(chǎn)) and lost her eyesight in early babyhood due to a medical accident.
Xiong's mother discovered her daughter had a talent for music early in her childhood. At age 3， she could play children's songs on a small electric piano at home.
“The piano is my best friend，” said Xiong. “The piano has accompanied me throughout my ups and downs in its own way. It brings so much pleasure into my life and empowers me with determination.” Learning to play the piano， which usually has 88 keys， is not easy for people who are blind. At first， her teacher helped her place her hands and fingers properly.
“Repeated practice is key because I need muscle memory to find the right keys，”she explained. “I pay attention to each minor step in each phrase and need to be fairly exact with the angle of how I control my hands， wrists and fingers.”
She has composed several songs， including one called the “Little Dog in Dream”， where she imagined her life with the company of a guide dog. Lyrics(歌詞) like “blue skies and rainbow slides” were used by the girl， who said she could “see” the world through music. Xiong expects to go to a university in Beijing and major in music performance or music production. If she had vision for three days， Xiong said， she would see how she looks， cook a big meal for her parents and take a walk in the places she has been to hundreds of times. “I also would like to see with my eyes what the piano that has accompanied me for more than a decade looks like， ”she said.
34.When did Xiong start learning the piano?
35.Who realized Xiong had a talent for music?
36.Why does Xiong consider the piano her best friend?
37.What is Xiong's expectation for the future?
38.What helped Xiong become excellent?
