三、阅读理解
阅读短文，回答问题
Getting in touch with friends is difficult after people change schools or move house. They don't know how to start the conversation again if they don't talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch with old friends，but they are afraid to do so.
Psychologists（心理学家） from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don't call their old friends. 70% of them don't want to call their friends first，because they worry that their old friends won't want to hear from them or are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.
Lara Aknin，one of the psychologists，said， "Most people are worried that they have different lifestyles and interests now. But these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting，they won't feel embarrassed （尴尬的） at all. Instead，they know each other better. "
In fact，if you get in touch with an old friend，you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So，why not give your old friend a call？
21．How does the writer start the passage
A．By telling a story. B．By giving a fact.
C．By asking a question. D．By listing numbers.
22．Why don't most people want to call their old friends first
A．Because they almost forget their old friends.
B．Because they don't want to trouble their old friends.
C．Because they have nothing to say to their old friends.

B．We can't share our things with old friends.

It is becoming more and more important for scientists to closely monitor our ocean life. However, it is almost impossible since we will make the animals afraid when we get close to them. Now, thanks to SoFi, the Soft Robotic Fish, scientists may not only be able to keep a close eye on them, but also uncover undersea secrets that we haven't known for centuries.
Built by MITs Computer Science and AI Lab, the snow-white remote-controlled robot closely emulates real fish, with a soft tail that moves from side to side and two "fins". To make sure SoFi can freely move around the ocean and swim like a real fish, a hydraulic pump moves water from one balloon-like part to the other through SoFi's soft rubber tail.
Robert Katzschmann, a scientist from MITs Computer Science and AI Lab, says, "To our knowledge, this is the first robotic fish that can swim freely in three dimensions for a long time."
During the test in the sea, SoFi swam at the depths of 50 feet for up to 40 minutes at a time, taking photos. Sometimes the fish would swim near the strange-looking robot-fish, while at other times they appeared without noticing it.
SoFi now only records videos. The scientists also hope to make it more autonomous in the future. "For us, this fish is magical," says Robert. "We imagine someday it might help us uncover more mysteries from the amazing underwater world that we know so little about."
26．The underlined word "emulates" in the passage means "____" in Chinese.
A．观察 B．喂食 C．模仿 D．畅游
27．To make sure SoFi can freely move around the ocean, a hydraulic pump helps it through its ____.
A．strange-looking fins B．snow white body
C．soft rubber tail D．balloon-like parts
28．What can SoFi do in the ocean now
A．It swims with a soft tail that moves up and down.
B．It can swim at the depths of 50 feet.
C．It is an autonomous robot which now only records sounds.
D．It can make some magic for the real fish.
29．We can learn from the passage that SoFi ____.
A．often scares the fish when it swims with them
B．can watch fish in the ocean without causing any trouble
C．is the first robotic fish that can swim in water for days at a time
D．swims at a high speed in the ocean
30．The passage is mainly about ____.
A．mysteries from the amazing underwater world
B．a scientist from MIT's Computer Science and AI Lab
C．the Soft Robotic Fish which is remote-controlled
D．all the inventions that MIT's Computer Science and AI Lab invented

Now, mobile phones are getting more and more helpful, especially some new apps. In fact, it is really difficult for people to make apps. They need lots of knowledge that you don't know.

Li Na from Shenzhen invented an app that can remind（提醒）students about cleaning the classrooms after school every day. " Lots of students in our school always forgot to do some cleaning. " said Li Na. "Now my app helps them a lot and our school is becoming cleaner and cleaner. I'm happy about it. "
"It is difficult to make an app. You have to be really careful and patient. Sometimes, you have to try again and again, but I enjoy doing it, " said Zhang Yuqi. He is also a student from Shanghai. The engineers from Baidu were very interested in some apps at the competition.
