My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his CF & thr 3:-@ kids FTF ILNY, its gr8.
  Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it's great.
  Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破坏)the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes cxan be seen in students' writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
  Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, "Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."
  Linguist James Millroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.
  However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."
  Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun"
 小题1:What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A.To give an example of a foreign language.

C.Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning?
D.Netspeak: Advantages and Disadvantages

小题1: D         
小题1:C
小题1:A
小题1:B

小题1:在审题过程中请大家主语是main purpose而不是 main idea ,第一段就一句话,而且是让人咋看起开一头雾水的句子,这样的句子用在开头,很明显是为了引出下文。或者大家可以运用排除法 文章主要对象是netspeak ,而A,B两项没有提到 netspeak 故排除,又因为C选项在感情色彩上是负面,与原文感情色彩相违背,故答案选择D。
小题1:本题为判断正误题,也叫做细节推断题,解题方法依据选项中的人物专有名词来定位找要点,A定位词为CM在原文倒数第二个自然段出现,其中引号的句子中用了worries与答案中的properly相反,所以排除;B定位词为GN和Standard English.文中出现Standard English.是在倒数第二个自然段与CM相关的信息,所以此选项为典型的张冠李戴;D选项为片面的夸大其辞,文章层面只能看到language is changing,而没有任何细节提到improving,所以根据文章第四自然段可以推断出C为正确选项。
小题1:本题为短语推断题,解题方法 结合上下文逻辑关系,上文提到年轻人会harming 语言,下文接着说当他们成为父母后,they too will think this way .他们也会这么想,那么中间空出一定是强调,并凸显出下文,那么最满足条件的解释是A选项。
小题1:本题为主旨大意题,结合专家的观点,既引号中的句子我们可以断定,全文的中心思想是为了凸显出netspeak的好,A 选项文章没有凸显出widely -used C 选项没有重点提及到language learning D文章观点很鲜明,并不是正反观点的论证,故答案选择B。

Robots have come a long way since 15th century. We’ve got robots to build cars, carry heavy things, work in dangerous places and explore planets. But things haven’t stopped there.
In 1986, Honda made a robot called ASIMO. And now, it has been developed greatly. Standing at 130cm and weighing 54kg. ASIMO is very much like a small astronaut wearing a bag on the back. And he can walk, flight, climb and run fast. Isn’t it wonderful?
The world’s first robot teacher is Saya. With her human-like face, she can show expressions like happiness, surprise, sadness, dislike, fear and she can even smile or show anger at students, which look much like a real teacher’s. To do this, her rubber skin is pulled from the back with motors inside. And her eyes and mouth have wires(电线) too. She can also say some simple words like “hello” or “thank you”.
In the UK, the development of robots is exciting. The mini-robots will send food, clean floors, collect and throw away waste. These robots can open doors by themselves and stop if anything or anyone is in the way.
These mini-robots are very useful for controlling infection(传染). Usually clean and dirty work is done by the same person, but here, you’ll have robots that do”dirty work”, like collecting dirty sheets, or taking away hospital waste; and you’ll have robots that do”clean work”, like bringing meals or clean sheets to patients. The robots have separate work so there’s no way for infection, which is great. But of course, robots would not take the piece of humans, but would free up more time for nurses to be with patients.
But if this is what it’s like in 2011, what’s it going to be like to 2021?
小题1:In the following, which is ASIMO’s behavior?
A.Smiling at people, saying “hello”.
B.Sending food or opening doors by himself
C.Fighting, climbing or running fast
D.Collecting waste for patients
小题2:What makes Saya look real?
A.Her face and rich expressionsB.Her clothes and shoes
C.Her walking and running speedD.Her rich knowledge
小题3:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Robots have come a long way since 1986.
B.The first robot teacher was made by Honda.
C.Saya looks like a small astronaut.
D.If anyone or anything is in the way, mini-robots will stop.
小题4:The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that _______.
A.nurses would have more free time with patients
B.robots would not take the place of humans
C.dirty and clean work is always done by the same person
D.mini-robots are useful for controlling infection

German scientists say that eating a little chocolate every day may keep you away from cardiovascular(心血管的) disease. The scientists have found that chocolate, especially dark chocolate , can help you cut down 39 percent of heart disease, including taking a very small amount .
