Dear Strangers,
I
remember
you.
Eighteen
months
ago,
when
my
cell
phone
rang,
you
were
walking
into
Whole Foods
36
to do your grocery shopping, just as I
had been only minutes before you.
But I
had already
37
my cart full of
groceries in the entryway, for my brother was on
the
other end of the
38
telling me my father had
39
his own life early that morning.
I started to cry and scream as my whole
body
40
. I fell to the floor under
the
41
of
what I had just learned.
You could have kept on walking,
42
my crie
s, but you didn’t.
You
could
have
simply
stopped
and
stared
at
my
43
of
pain,
but
you
didn’t.
Instead,
you
surrounded me as I yelled
44
my sobs, “My father killed himself.
He’s dead.”
I
remember
one
of
you
asked
for
my
phone.
You
needed
my
husband’
s
name
as
you
searched
through
my
45
.
I
remember
that
I
could
hear
your
46
as
you
tried
to
reach
my
husband
for
me,
leaving an
47
message for
him
to
call
me.
I
recall
hearing
you
discuss
among
yourselves
who
would
drive
me
home
in
my
car
and
who
would
48
that person back to the store. You
didn’t even know one another, and you came around
me
with the common
49
—
to help.
In my
50
, I told you that I had a friend who
worked at Whole Foods, and one of you
brought her to me. And I even recall as
I sat with her, one of you
51
a
gift card for meals to
Whole Foods.
That gift card helped to
52
my family when the idea of cooking was
so far
53
my emotional
reach.
I never saw you after that. But
I know this to be true: Because you
54
out to help, you
offered a
ray of light in the most
55
moment I’ve ever experienced. I will
never, ever forget
you.

The spread of no-maintenance artificial
lawns is threatening
wildlife and rare plants,
conservationists and gardening experts
are warning. Gardens are an
increasingly important shelter for
wildlife which was forced into
withdrawing from the countryside
by
loss of the natural homes and intensive farming.
But the growth
in the popularity of
artificial lawns, which look like the real thing
but require no cutting, watering
or
fertilizing, means there’s no
shelter
in an increasing number of Britain’s
back gardens.
Tim
Rumball,
editor
of
Amateur
Gardening
magazine,
said:
“Artificial
grass
these
days
looks
great and these days you can buy rolls of it
whereas before it was a very specialist thing. It
can take people a few
min
utes to realize they are on an
artificial lawn rather than a real
one.”
Besides
the
impact
on
wildlife,
a
damaging
impact
has
also
been
had
on
the
wider
environment because of
replacing real grass.
Mr Rumball said:
“Lawns matter a lot. Plants
change
carbon dioxide into oxygen and if all
the lawns are taken away in Britain you will
significantly
affect
the
carbon
levels
in
the
atmosphere.
When
grass
grows
longer,
it
attracts
insects.
If
you
have an
artificial lawn then these insects will be
reduced
and the whole of the
food chain will be
affected, especially
birds that rely on insects for their
diet.”
Joy
Wallis
of
Dorset
Wildlife
Trust
is
also
concerned
about
the
trend
for
artificial
grass.
“These
days,
gardens
ar
e
a
shelter
for
wildlife.”
she
said.
“Creatures
can’t
survive
in
the
countryside because it
is so full of chemicals. Birds get absolutely
nothing from artificial grass,
and
they can’t dig for worms or anything
like that. It seems a shame that people feel they
haven’t
got the time or the tendency
t
o look after a lawn.”
Robert Redcliffe of Namgrass, which
currently sells 10,000 square meters of artificial
grass
per
week,
says
business
is
booming,
adding,
“We
started
five
years
ago
in
the
UK
and
it
can
transform the way you use the garden.
There
’
s the obvious
advantage of no cutting or watering,
but also there’s no mud for children or
pets to
walk
through the
house.”
He disagrees that artificial
grass is harmful to the environment and
added,
“There are ecological benefits.
In the long run the
effect
of
artificial
grass
is
outweighed
by
not
having
to
use
a
lawnmower,
running
water
or
fertilizers.”
58.
What can we learn from the growing trend for
artificial lawns?
A. More people are
fed up with the real lawns.
B. More
people prefer the lower price of artificial grass.
C. More people believe
artificial grass to look really better.
D. More people pay less attention to
taking care of the environment.
59. What can be inferred from what
Robert Redcliffe says?
A. Wildlife is likely to be
threatened.
B. All enjoy
the convenience of artificial lawns.
C. He focuses
on keeping the balance of ecology.
D.
Parents spend more time accompanying children.
60. The author’s real purpose of
writing the passage is to_________.
A. warn the public against damaging the
real lawns
B. emphasize the necessity
of limiting artificial lawns
C.
provide ways of protecting the living environment
D.
give the reasons for the popularity of artificial
lawns

Robotic surgery is one
thing, but sending a robot inside the body to
carry out an operation
quite
another,
which
has
long
been
a
goal
of
some
researchers
to
produce
tiny
robotic
devices
being capable of traveling through the
body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without
the need
for a single cut, the
possibility of which has just got a bit closer.
However,
unlike
the
plot
of
one
film
—
which
featured
a
microscopic
crew
and
submarine
traveling thro
ugh a
scientist’s bloodstream —
this device
could not be inserted into blood
vessels
（管）
because
it
is
too
big.
While
other
types
of
miniature
swallowable
robots
have
been
developed in the past, their role has
mostly been limited to capturing images inside the
body. In a
presentation this week to
the International Conference, Daniela Rus and
Shuhei Miyashita of the
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
described
a
robot
they
have
developed
that
can
be
swallowed and used to collect dangerous
objects accidentally taken in.
To test
their latest version, Dr Rus and Dr Miyashita
designed a robot as a battery hunter,
which might seem to be an odd task, but
more than 3,500 people in America alone, most of
them
children, swallow the tiny button
cells used in small electronic devices by accident
every year. To
start
with,
the
researchers
created
an
artificial
esophagus
（食道）
and
stomach
made
out
of
silicone
(
硅胶
)
. It was closely
modeled on that found in a pig and filled with
medical liquid; the
robot itself is
made from several layers of different materials,
including pig intestine
（肠）
,
and
contains a little magnet. This is
folded up and encased in a 10mm×
27mm
capsule of ice. Once this
reaches the
stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds which
is moved and
guided with the
use
of a magnetic field outside the
body. In their tests, the robot was able to touch
a button battery and
draw
it
with
its
own
magnet,
and
during
dragging
it
along,
the
robot
could
then
be
directed
towards the intestines where it would
eventually be gotten rid of through the anus
(
肛门
)
. After
it,
the researchers sent in another
robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the
site of the battery
burn to speed up
healing.
The
artificial
stomach
being
transparent
on
one
side,
the
researchers
were
able
to
see
the
batteries and visually
control the robots. If not, that will require help
with the help from imaging
system,
which will be a bit more of a challenge, but Dr
Rus and Dr Miyashita are determined to
succeed.
61. According to
the passage, the robot operation will probably be
able to_________.
A. travel through a
scientist’s bloodstream
B.
photograph the body to convey to the doctor
C. enter the body to
deliver drugs or make repairs
D. operate on a person outside the body
completely
62. We learn
from Paragraph 3 that _________.
A. the
researchers did the experiment on a chosen animal
B. the robot
took necessary drugs besides a little magnet
C. digesting the swallowed
batteries is difficult for children
D. the actual size of the
robot may be larger than the capsule of ice
63. What may the experiment
mean to the medical world?
A. The
surgeries will cost patients much money.
B. Patients will suffer
less for some surgeries.
C.
Fewer children will swallow the button cells.
D. A robot will be invented
travelling blood vessels.
64. Which can
be the most suitable title for the passage?
A. An Experiment on Robot
B. Tiny Robot, Significant Role
C. The Fantastic Robotic
