6 . Even though she’s quite young, Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood(好莱坞) legend(传奇). She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight(聚光灯).
When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.
However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She was drinking wine by the time she was 9, smoking marijuana(大麻) at 10.
Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t.
As she was growing older, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).
“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove(证明) that I can do more.”
Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy- going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue. “Life is very interesting… in the end, some of your greatest pains will become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.
1. How old was she when Barrymore made the film 50 First Dates?A.25 | B.29 | C.39 | D.50 |
A.happy | B.friendly | C.weak | D.brave |

7 . There was an old man who lived in a house by himself. Because of his old age, he wasn’t able to get around very well. Therefore, he had almost everything delivered(送货) to his home, including(包括) his newspaper, his milk, and his bread. On Friday, while delivering the old man’s milk, the milkman knocked on the front door of the man’s house. But to his surprise, no one answered. And the milk he delivered for these two days hadn’t been taken into the house yet. Beside the milk on the doorstep, there were also two bags of bread for Wednesday and Thursday.
This was the third day that the man hadn’t come to his door to get the milk. The milkman immediately thought there was something strange about the situation. He looked through the keyhole in the front door and was surprised to see the old man lying on the ground, maybe dead. The milkman called the police to the scene(现场). They found that the man had been shot to death. After finding out the things around the man’s house further, the police found no evidence(证据) other than(除了) a copy of Tuesday’s newspaper on the doorstep.
They then interviewed the three people who had most recently seen the old man: the milkman, the old man’s baker, and a newspaper deliveryman. They questioned the men to see if any of them had killed the old man. While being questioned, all three men said they didn’t kill him. It seemed unlikely that all three of them were innocent(无辜的). But the police had already figured out (推测) who the killer might be. They arrested the newspaper deliveryman.
How did the police figure out that he might be the person who killed the old man?

10 . Working robots are typically big, simple and strong. They are large preprogrammed units working in dangerous jobs. But the idea of putting “cobots” which work in harmony with humans into use has become a reality and has changed robotic products worldwide.
Cobots include robots made of tough materials that provide support for the disabled and software-based assistants for home of online services. With their operating software updated from the Internet,these helpers will become an extension of mobile devices.
Most industrial robots are not designed to deal with unpredictable human jobs. However, by reducing robots down to desktop size and planting them with AI, the next generation of cobots will learn from us and cooperate with us better. Lightweight cobots can work in less space and share themselves with people rather than being caged off. Decreasing costs for robotic systems make them more suitable for small businesses, and their easy set-up makes them simple to deploy. Typical industrial uses for cobots include packing and machine tending. More detailed uses include cleaning dirty samples, picking plants, making tea and coffee and so on.
Still, experts thought that introducing robots would lead to job losses. Some people said that 20 million industrial jobs would be lost worldwide by 2030.Actually,it was not the case. What big companies such as Germany’s Mercedes-Benz discovered was that robots alone were not intelligent enough to keep pace with the demand for special products, which still depends on a large number of skilled staff to control and push the whole progress.
“Unplanned changes to production and safer interaction with humans will then require a step change in robot improvements. It has become necessary to use the new generation of cobots in people’s daily life, and cooperation should be considered as an applicable strategy. When we make people and machines cooperate, we can produce many more products on one production line,” said Markus Schaefer, head of production planning.
