Many people think that ASIMO is very fantastic 5 it helps people do daily work, such as cleaning and washing.
However, ASIMO is not cheap, so not every person has enough money 6 one. What’s more, there are still some things that the robot 7 do. “I don’t think that ASIMO can make the old people feel less lonely（孤独）,” said a scientist in Honda. “So if your family has 8 old person, maybe you should talk with him or her on the phone each week.

Scientists at Stanford University have developed a new material（材料）these days. It can move heat out of buildings and into space. The scientists say the material can cool buildings even on hot days. The cooling material can be placed on the roof like solar panels（太阳能电池板）. However, instead of turning sunlight into energy as solar panels do, the material turns heat into infrared radiation（红外辐射）.
Shanhui Fan is an electrical engineering professor at Stanford University. He says that the panels have a kind of material that is like sand. The panels act like a mirror. They take heat out of buildings and reflect（反射）the light from the sun. Both the heat and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space.
The material doesn’t get heated up by the sun because it can cool itself. So the panels are cool to the touch, even in the sun. Researchers say they can reduce the indoor temperature to nearly 5℃ below the temperature outside.
Mr. Fan says it is like having a window into space. The heat is sent into space without warming the air. He also says buildings in developing countries that do not have air conditioning can use the panels.
Scientists say the big problem is developing an actual cooling system by using the high-tech panels. Nowadays, as much as 15% of the energy used in the United States is spent providing power to air conditioning systems. Scientists believe the cooling system can be developed in the next three to five years. It can greatly help save the energy.
（ ）61．The new material can cool the buildings by ________.
A．placing it on the ground B．turning sunlight into energy
C．using solar panels D．turning heat into infrared radiation
（ ）62．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 is about ________.
A．the building B．the sun C．the material D．the space
（ ）63．If it’s 35℃ outside, it will be about ________ in the building with the new panels.
A．25℃ B．30℃ C．35℃ D．40℃
（ ）64．Which of the following is true according to the passage
A．The new material won’t warm the air when sending heat into space.
B．The panels have sand to help take heat out of buildings.
C．It needs more energy to power the new cooling system than air conditioning.
D．Now people in the US can use the new cooling system to cool their houses.
（ ）65．The passage is mainly about ________.
A．a new kind of solar panel B．a new kind of space material
C．a new kind of cooling material D．a new kind of energy

Now, let me introduce the movie called I, Robot. It tells us a story about the future.
The year is 2035 and robots are just as common as mobile phones. People depend on their robots to do lots of things, for example, babysitting, cooking, doing chores and taking their dogs for a walk. Robots have to obey(听从) humans' orders, because their designers make them do so. A police officer called Spooner hates robots. He doesn't think humans can get on well with their robots at all! But the scientist Susan has different opinions. Susan works on robots' mind and she thinks one day robots will become more powerful(强大的) than humans and help humans to make progress.
When Spooner and Susan work together, they find that something is wrong with the world's robots. A few robots have their own thoughts and they're trying to get out of humans' control(控制)! Of course these robots' dream doesn't come true. Humans work hard to control their robots again and they succeed at last.
（ ）66．The story happens in __________.
A．2025 B．2030 C．2035 D．2040

NASA hasn’t landed astronauts on the moon since the 1972 Apollo 17 mission. Last year, NASA said it would have a new moon landing program called Artemis. With the Artemis program, NASA will send the first woman and the next man to the moon in 2024. Not long ago, news about NASA’s Artemis program showed that the astronauts are going for a pretty long moon walk. After they reach the moon, they are going to walk 10 miles. This is over 16 times further than how far the first men to land on the moon walked. The astronauts are going to land on the South Pole (南极) of the moon. They will be looking for ice and water there. Such a long walk will come with lots of difficulties. It takes longer to walk a mile on the moon than on the earth because there is lower gravity (重力) on the moon. According to Apollo astronauts’ walking speed of around l.4 miles an hour, it will take over seven hours to walk 10 miles. However, NASA is said to be using a kind of new space suits (航天服). They will be lighter and more comfortable. They will help astronauts walk freely and keep them warm on the moon. “This is where we’re going to test out technologies. We are working hard for further lunar exploration,” said NASA engineer Natalie Mary.
81．When will NASA send the first woman and the next man to the moon
82．How long are the astronauts going to walk after they reach the moon
83．What will the astronauts be looking for on the South Pole of the moon
84．Why is it longer to walk a mile on the moon than on the earth
85．What will help astronauts walk freely and keep them warm on the moon

What will life be like in the future Here are some predictions:
There will be more pollution and less fresh water because there will be more 86 (factory) and more water will be 87 (pollute). The environment will 88 (probable) be even more dangerous. Hundreds of people have to leave the earth by rocket to look for another planet 89 (live) on. They have to play a part in 90 (build) more space stations and live like the astronauts.
But some people 91 (agree). They think there’s nothing to be afraid of. The sky won’t fall 92 . On one side, people will plant more trees. They will live in a big apartment and never use paper money. On another side, people in 93 (Japanese) have already made many different shapes of robots do jobs for them over and over 94 . They will use robots like human servants inside their home. In 95 word, they believe life will be more comfortable in the future and there will be world peace. It’s possible for people to travel in space or in the deep sea during their holiday.
