【題目】Robotic Puppy

Roll over, sit and fetch aren't commands normally given to a robot, but the smart toy company WowWee has developed a new way of owning a puppy.

CHIP(Canine Home Intelligent Pet) is a robotic dog with blue LED eyes and pointy ears and can sit, shake, dance and make all types of dog noises. It also has tracking capabilities to help locate its owner." The beauty about CHIP is that it has its own thing going on," said Sufer, CTO at WowWee." It has its own life and own kind of intelligence. Even if you're not around, it's always doing something."

CHIP uses wheels to get around and is loaded with sensors(傳感器) that give it a 360-degree view to find its ball. The pup is Bluetooth enabled, which connects to a wristband worn by its owner. The wristband, similar to a watch, displays icons(圖標(biāo)) for different commands such as a thumb-up, which allows you to give your pup a digital belly rub. With its owner wearing a smart wristband, it can even follow him around the room.

"We worked on CHIP for about five to six months," Davin Sufer, told dailymail.com, "We typically come up with a concept, model and product and get it on shelves within a year." The company plans to start shipping units by next fall, which will allow them to load up the robotic dog with sensors and add many more animated responses per-owner interactivity.

The high-tech toy company made its debut(處女作) in 2004 by releasing the 1.5 foot RoboSapien, which sold millions of units. MiP, which hit shelves last year, is a seven inch tall robot covered in white with black accents. Users can direct it, change its emotions and make it dance to any song on your iPad. It's loud, fast and active.

About 15years ago, a company called ToyQuest developed the first ever electronic robotic dog——Tekno, the Robotic Puppy. The company sold over seven million units in the first season and 40 million more during its original four years of production. Tekno was built with over 160 emotions and instructions, but most importantly offered consumers a quick look into the future.

【1】According to Sufer, the amazing characteristic of CHIP is that .

A. it is loaded with special sensors B. it can make all kinds of dog noises

C. it has quick response to the commands D. it can do something without instructions

【2】CHIP can follow its owner with the help of .

A. a watch B. a smart wristband

C. pointy ears D. blue LED eyes

【3】From the passage, we can know .

A. CHIP can be bought in the store now

B. WowWee introduced its first product last year

C. Tekno provided the bright future of the robotic puppy

D. MiP is the first company to develop the robotic puppy.

【題目】Hundreds of years ago, no dandelions (蒲公英) grew in North America. Then people

came from Europe.They had dandelion seeds on their clothes. The seeds fell from their clothes onto the ground. Since then, dandelions have spread all over.

Most people believe that dandelions are weeds. They do not want them in their gardens. But some people think that dandelion flowers are pretty. And others think that dandelions taste good. They cook dandelion leaves or put them into a fresh salad. The leaves must be picked before the flowers come out or they will not taste good. Some people make dandelion flowers into wine.

Dandelions do not die easily. If the winter is not very cold, their leaves may stay green.

When the spring arrives, their flowers come out. Each night their bright yellow flowers close

up. When the sun shines the next day, they open up again. Dandelion flowers are very unusual. They do not have to get pollen (花粉) from another dandelion flower in order to form seeds. So after several days, the yellow flower turns white and soft. A tiny brown seed forms at the bottom of each white petal (花瓣). When the wind blows, the petals float away.

Each white petal carries a seed away. This lets the dandelions spread their seeds all over.

New dandelions grow where the seeds land.

【1】The underlined word “weeds” means .

A. pretty flowers B. fresh vegetables C. wild plants D. green trees

【2】When is the best time to pick dandelion leaves to eat?

A. After their flowers come out. B. After their flowers turn white.

C. Before their flowers come out. D. Before their flowers close up.

【3】What is the best title for this passage?

A. The History of Dandelions B. Dandelions: Flowers or Food

C. The Use of Dandelions D. How to Grow Dandelions
