Scientists are creating robots that can be used in many different areas of life.Recently a new kind of robot which looks like a penguin has been developed.The penguin robot helps scientists get closer to emperor penguins（帝企鹅） to know more about their behaviour（行为）.
Emperor penguins are famous as shy animals.They usually feel nervous and run away when scientists go towards them.This will cause problems to their hearts.To solve it，a team of scientists created a remote control vehicle（遥控车）.This vehicle allowed the scientists to study the penguins from over 200 meters away.It could move up to the penguins slowly and quietly without making them run away.It was also used to help make the documentary（纪录片） March of the Penguins.
The scientists still wanted to watch emperor penguins much closer.After trying many times，they developed their latest robot which was like a little grey penguin.It had four black wheels，two black arms and a black-and-white painted face.The wheels were prepared for the robot to walk on the thick snow easily.This new robot didn't scare the penguins.They even sang songs to welcome the robot and listened for a response.But the penguins were very unhappy when there was no answer.The scientists didn't programme （编写程序） the penguin robot to make a sound.Next time they will have the robot sing songs.
Thanks to the robots，scientists could do much more research on emperor penguins.
22.Why was the penguin robot developed？ ______
A. To learn about emperor penguins' behaviour.
B. To help scientists walk on thick snow.
C. To take photos for a documentary.

26. Do you know cuju？It is an ancient Chinese sport that is similar to soccer.It began in the State of Qi during the Warring States Period.The place is now called Linzi，in Shandong Province.According to legend （传说），cuju was invented by Huangdi，the Yellow Emperor.He used it to train soldiers for battle.
During the Han Dynasty，cuju became very popular.It developed into a professional sport with clear rules.Players could use their feet，knees，and chest to control the ball.However，they could not use their hands to touch it.A game was played between two teams，and each team had six players.The team that scored more goals won the game.Many famous generals，such as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing，enjoyed playing cuju in their free time.Even Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty was a big fan of this exciting sport.He often watched matches and cheered for his favorite teams.
But things changed in the Ming Dynasty.Some officials played cuju too much.They spent so much time on the sport that they often forgot their important work.As a result，ZhuYuanzhang，the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty，banned （废除） the sport for officials.Later，the Qing Dynasty kept the ban.Cuju slowly disappeared from China.
However，the story of cuju did not end there.In 2004，FIFA （国际足联） officially accepted cuju as the earliest form of soccer.This made many Chinese people very proud.Just two years later，in 2006，China listed cuju as a national intangible cultural heritage （国家级非物质文化遗产）.This means that cuju is an important part of Chinese culture and history.
Today，people in Linzi still remember the history of cuju.They often hold cuju activities to show the traditional culture to visitors.Cuju is a great example of how a sport can connect the past and the present.It also shows the wisdom and creativity of ancient Chinese people.

Summer vacation is coming soon.It is the best time for us to read books.I have read and kept many books from childhood.Among them，my favorite book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.It is written by Mark Twain.He wrote this book according to his own experiences.

My father gave the book to me on my 11th birthday.I have had it for two years since then.It is special to me because it's my birthday gift from my dear father.What's more，I learned a lot from Tom Sawyer.His story encourages me to try hard to achieve my dream and never give up.It also tells me that we should always be honest in life.I will keep the book forever.
