Nuclear­powered aircraft carriers are considered one of the most important marine weapons in the 20th century. So far, only two countries in the world, the USA and France, have ever produced them. But these fearful fighting machines are about to enter Asia.
The US Navy said last month that one of its nine nuclear­powered aircraft carriers will be sent to Japan to replace the diesel(柴油)­powered carrier Kitty Hawk in 2008. In an agreement on October 30, the two countries also planned to level up their military (军事的) cooperation and the USA called for Japan to take a larger role in alliance (联盟)military moves.
It will be the first time that a nuclear­powered carrier is based in Japan. Bombed by US forces in World War Ⅱ at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon. Therefore, the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclear­powered weapons are based.
“A radiation leak at Yokosuka would kill 100,000 people as far away as Tokyo, and could cause billions of dollars in damage,” said Masahiko Goto, leader of a protest group in Yokosuka. His group has collected more than 300,000 signatures of people across Japan opposed to the nuclear carrier.
The 44­year­old Kitty Hawk, the US Navy's oldest active ship, has been based in Yokosuka since 1998. It had returned to the US to be decommissioned(废弃核武器) in 2008. The new carrier will travel faster, be capable of supporting longer operations and carry with it the Navy's most modern technology.
Experts pointed that this change is not only to strengthen the US­Japan military alliance but also to keep the military power of China and North Korea within limits. However, even Japanese experts don't believe that the two countries are threats to the region.
“There is no need for Japan to have a nuclear carrier as defense,” said Tetsuo Maeda, an international relations professor at Tokyo International University. He said that the change of ship indicates an increased military capability in the region, much more than what is needed.
【小题1】With such a powerful weapon to enter its country, Japanese citizens ________.

A.are aware of its benefits to the country
B.are anxious about its potential danger
C.are curious about the advanced technology
D.are against where the carrier will be based
【小题2】The replacement of the aircraft carrier is intended to________.
A.set up a kind of base in Japan
B.strengthen the US­Japan military alliance
C.show Japan's greater military capability
D.get rid of the dated marine weapon
【小题3】From the story, we learn that________.
A.no other countries except the USA and France possess aircraft carriers
B.Japan has long planned to increase its military capability with new weapons
C.Japan will be the first country in Asia to have a nuclear aircraft carrier
D.Japan will be the third country to produce a nuclear­powered aircraft carrier
【小题4】By his remark in the last paragraph, the professor means that________.
A.he is quite confident of their military defense
B.he is completely opposed to a new nuclear carrier
C.what is needed is far more than a nuclear carrier
D.it is unnecessary to guard against the two countries

Robots that can chatfind misplaced glassesdraw aeroplanes and play with your children are drawing thousands of visitors’ attention during an expo in Tokyo as Japan adapts to changes in society.

The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor.

“We have developed a robot that can assist many peoplebut because of the high costwe still haven’t found a sponsor”said Matsumotowho added that the cost of the machineif mass?producedwould be comparable to that of a car.

“In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project” he said.

Other robotssuch as the award?winning “DiGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children.

The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictureskeeping children company while their parents work.

阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。(请注意问题后的字数要求)

No first lesson is more important than the one on personal safety for kids. The First Lesson of the New TERM, a TV documentary(纪录片) about how to protect oneself in times of emergency, is meant to provide school students with the knowledge on self-protection. It will help students in case of natural disasters, snowstorms or floods.

There are times when one can be helpless and hopeless in many life-threatening situations. But that does not mean we _______ the end of life at that time. Many examples show that enough knowledge about self-protection along with enough courage and determination can help many survive.

The most recent example is from May earthquake in Sichuan Province. Thousands of school kids were killed by collapsed(坍塌的) school buildings, while all students from a middle school survives even without a single one being hurt. That’s because of their timely and orderly escape, which they had been drilled in every term.

Japan has set a good example for us in safety lessons. Survival exercises are held in Japanese schools every year. With different kinds of competitions and training, schools help the students be aware and capable of surviving disasters.

It’s good to see this program is the core(核心) of a national campaign to warn students the importance of personal safety. Chinese Education Ministry has called on all schools nationwide to give lessons on self-protection knowledge in times of emergency every term.

Life is weak but can be strengthened when one is equipped with enough knowledge on how to best survive.

1.What will be helpful for students to survive natural disasters? (Please answer within 15 words)

2.Fill in the blank in paragraph 2 with a proper phrase or words. (Please answer within 2 words)

3.What is the purpose of the passage? (Please answer within 15 words)

4.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?

Students will be more keen and determined in face of disasters if they have got much knowledge and experience about self-protection.

5.Translate the underlined sentence of the last paragraph into Chinese.
