For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider with four legs.Until now, even the most advanced (先进的) robot was almost certain to break down when it was damaged. That is because its computer inside simply doesnt know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed.To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (发动机) and two sensors (传感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals to the machines software. Using this information, the computer can then figure out the machines shape at any moment.The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and its far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better artificial (假的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who lose them. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals figure out their own sense of place in space.“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when its damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.”（1）Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?A . They cannot repair themselves.B . The computer has changed a lot.C . They have no computers inside.D . The computer cannot work if the robot changes.（2）The new technology allows the robot to _.A . do house work for humansB . keep working after being damagedC . remember a lot of informationD . tell people where it is（3）The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to _.A . sensorsB . robotsC . arms and legsD . scientists（4）How do the sensors in the robot work?A . They can replace the computer when its broken.B . They can find out where the damage comes from.C . They help the computer learn the robots condition.D . They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.（5）The passage is probably from_.A . a newspaperB . an advertisementC . a tour guideD . an application14. （10分）阅读下面材料，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。There is a park near my home.

Their looks7 Yes, its both of the things, but its also something else: theyre elephants.These musical elephants started at the TECC in Lampang. The TECC protects elephants.

He loves his job there and knows a lot about elephants. He says some of the animals paintings are very good. But, in fact, elephants hear better than they see. And so he had an idea: if elephants are smart and they have good hearing, maybe they can play music. To test his idea, Lair and a friend started the Thai Elephant Orchestra. During a performance, the elephants play a number of instruments, including the drums and the xylophone (木琴).But can elephants really make music properly? Yes, says Lair. They are very creative. Human encourage the animals to play, but the elephants make their own songs; they dont just copy their trainers or other people. There are now CDs of the groups music which make money for the TECC.
