ANDY — THE ANDROID I'm part of an android

football team. About once a year we are allowed to get together to play a game of football. I'm as big as a human. In fact, I look like one too. On the football team I'm a striker so I have to be able to run very fast. My computer chips help me to move and think like a human. For example, I have learned to signal

to my teammates

in computer language to give me the ball when I am open and have a good shot for a goal. [读文清障]

机器人安迪

[第1段译文] 我是机器人足球队的一名成员。每年大约有一次，我们可以获准在一起进行一场足球赛。我同真人一样大小。事实上我看上去也很像人。我在足球队中是前锋，所以我需要跑得非常快。我的电脑芯片帮助我像真人一样运动和思考。例如，当我前面没人防守有机会射一个好球的时候，我已经学会了用计算机语言向队友示意把球传给我。

My first football competition was in Nagoya， Japan several years ago. Last year our team went to Seattle， Washington in the USA. We won second place.

1 ⑨⑩⑧⑦⑤⑥④②③①

Personally， I think the team that won first place cheated. They had developed⑫⑪ a new type of program just before the competition. So we need to encourage our ⑭⑬programmer to improve our intelligence too. We are determined to create an even better system. In a way our programmer is like our coach. She programs us with all the possible moves she has seen while watching human games. Then she prepares reliable moves to use if a new situation arises. In this way I can make up new moves using my “artificial intelligence”. I would really like to play against 21，

with a human team, for I have been programmed to act just like them. After all○2 my electronic23 brain which never forgets anything, using my the help of2○○24！

○[第2段译文] 我第一次足球比赛是几年前在日本的名古屋。去年，我们队去了美国华盛顿州的西雅图比赛，获得了第二名。我个人认为得冠军的那个队作弊了。他们恰恰在比赛前研制了一种新程序。因此我们也需要鼓励我们的程序编制员来提高我们的智能。我们决心创造一个更好的

系统。从某种程度上看，我们的程序员就像是我们的教练。她把观看人类比赛时所看到的一切可能的动作编入我们的程序，然后她把我们在新情况下能用得上的可靠动作准备好。这样，我就可以用我的“人工智能”编制出新的动作。我真的特别喜欢和人类球队比赛，因为我经过程序编制，行动起来和他们一样。不管怎样，在我过目不忘的电子脑的帮助下，运用智能就是我的一切！

During the day, Mike Kosciuk teaches students at De La Salle Collegiate High School in Michigan. However, in the evenings and on weekends, Mike provides instruction on Tutor.com. Not only does he teach students math from 9th grade through college level, he also teaches other online teachers how to improve their teaching. Recognized as a leader in online teaching, Mike was the February 2010 Tutor of the Month for Tutor.com. Chrissy Markley is one of many online teachers who are taking virtual (虚拟的) learning to the lower grades. At Arizona Connections Academy, an online public school, Chrissy teaches 7/8th Grade Gifted Language Arts and 9th Grade Language Arts. Once a 6th grade teacher in a traditional public school area, Chrissy enjoys teaching in the virtual classroom. Recognized as an excellent teacher, she was named the

12

school's 2011 Teacher of the Year. Having ten years' experience in online teaching, Jody Shine began teaching with Davenport University. When she was asked to teach online, she was skeptical at first. “I feared something would be lost in the give and take of classroom discussion，” Jody said. “Now I know online teaching allows students greater freedom to express themselves.” Today, Jody uses voice recordings and online videos to teach English Composition to Davenport students. Like Arizona Connections Academy, Open High School of Utah is also a public school offering online instruction. There, Amy Pace is an award­winning (获奖的) science teacher. After spending 11 years in a traditional teaching environment, Amy joined Open High School of Utah. She has helped create an interesting science course. In 2010, she was one of 103 7th to 12th grade teachers to be chosen for a Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. 语篇解读：本文是应用文。文章介绍了四位网课老师。

1．What subject does Mike teach? A．English Composition.

C．Science. B．Language Arts. D．Math. 解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Not only does he teach students math”可知，Mike是教数学的。

2．The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”．

A．unhappy C．serious B．doubtful D．bored 解析：选B 词义猜测题。根据Jody紧接着说的“I feared something would be lost in the give and take of classroom discussion”和“Now I know online teaching allows students greater freedom to express themselves.”之间的对比可知，Jody一开始担心网络授课中不能很好地进行课堂讨论交流，因此对是否要进行网络授课有所迟疑。

3．What kind of readers will probably like reading the text? A．Parents who are helping their kids choose a public school. B．Students who are searching for an online teacher. C．Teachers who want to win prizes in teaching. D．Anyone who likes to study abroad. 解析：选B 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了四位网上授课老师的基本情况以及他们所获得的相应奖项，因此对于正在挑选在线老师的学生来说很有用处。

Ⅱ.语法填空

13

When I was in my second year of senior high school, a girl __1__ (call) Jeanie in my class made a big name for herself. She had successfully passed __2__ interviews for a famous women's university in the USA. __3__ hearing the news, I told the girl that I admired her very much. Then, she smiled at me and said the words __4__ I will never forget: “You can also do it! If you have dreams, you should realize them. Without action, dreams are still dreams.” Her words gave me so much __5__ (inspire). She encouraged me to take action to realize my dreams. From then on, I spent a lot of time __6__ (prepare) an article for competition. After several days' hard work, I finished it and handed it in. __7__ day in and day out, I kept waiting and waiting, and yet I heard nothing. I was very __8__ (disappoint) then. One day, however, a classmate of mine pointed to an English newspaper and said __9__ (excited), “Emma, your name is in the newspaper！” My heart beat heavily. With shock and joy, I picked up the newspaper. The thing I thought was __10__ (possible) had really happened. 语篇解读：作者通过自身故事说明只要多行动、肯努力，梦想一定会变成现实。

1．called girl与call之间是被动关系，故用过去分词作定语。

2．the 特指美国一家著名的女子大学的面试，故用定冠词。

3．On/After on doing sth.“一做某事”，作时间状语，相当于as soon as引导的时间状语从句。也可以用介词after表示“在……之后”。

4．that/which 所填词引导定语从句，在从句中作宾语，先行词是words，故用that/which。

5．inspiration 作give的宾语，前面有so much修饰，故用不可数名词inspiration。

6．preparing spend ... doing sth.“花……做某事”，是固定用法。

7．But 本句表示“但是，一天又一天，我一直等待，还是没有任何消息”，表示转折意义，用连词but。

8．disappointed 主语是I，表语应该用­ed式形容词，故用disappointed“感到失望的”。

9．excitedly 修饰动词said用副词excitedly“兴奋地”。

10．impossible 所填词作表语，而且由句意可知此处表示“不可能的”，故用impossible。

14
