Oh my God, the robots are taking over! We’re doomed! Doomed! Now that I’ve gotten that out of my system, it’s become clear that while we may or may not be doomed, the robots are taking over. The latest example is the government’s new guidelines for self-driving cars.

Tesla, Google and Uber are already testing driverless cars in cities across America. Uber chief executive Travis Kalanick is among those predicting that by 2021, self-driving cars will play a big part in urban settings.

Nearly 40,000 people died last year in this nation in automobile-related accidents, and we believes driverless cars can save tens of thousands of lives annually.

Makes sense. Robot drivers are less likely to get drunk, drive without a license, text while driving or feel agitated at the scene of a pileup. On the other hand, I wonder how these highly sensitive cars will react, with walkers constantly dashing into the street. Will they jam on the brakes every 10 seconds?

But there’s a bigger picture. Not only are robots replacing humans behind the wheel, but behind the work desk, in warehouses, senior homes, you name it. Robots aren’t just taking over in the workplace.

The question is, where can’t a robot function better than a human? How about writing songs? A robot can go through every combination of notes in record time and come up with a pleasing melody. The lyrics might be a different story. Is a Grammy-winning song co-written by Hank Human and R-3071 in our future?

Finally, it’s only a matter of time until we have robot politicians and presidential candidates. Why not? They can be programmed to be experts in world and domestic affairs and come up with the best solutions without corruption and bad humors.

Actually, it’s too bad such technology isn’t available in 2016. Pretty sure the robot would win in a landslide.

1.What does the underlined word “agitated” mean?

A. Tired　　 B. Cautious

C. Careful　　 D. Anxious

2.What doubt does the writer have about self-driving cars?

A. How passengers behave in it.

B. How robot drivers get the license.

C. How they avoid crashing into other car.

D. How they respond to walkers on a busy street.

3.The last questions asked in the sixth paragraph reflects the writer’s ________.

A. confidence in robots, winning Grammy Awards

B. eagerness to listen to songs written by robots

C. doubt about robots’ ability to write songs

D. curiosity about the future Grammy songs

4.What might be the most suitable title for the text?

A. Robots will control the world in every field

B. Robots are coming but not soon enough

C. Robots are being used in our daily life

D. Robots can drive cars and write music

I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.

Years later，during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk”, she said, “is for Elizabeth”.

I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me, she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. However, they never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional”. But she lived “on the surface”.

As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.　 I posted the letter and waited for her answer. But none came.

My hope turned to disappointment, finally, peace. It seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I stopped trying to make her into someone she was not.

Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased with that writing which was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside----a photo of my father and a one-page letter folded and refolded many times.

1.The writer began to love her mother’s desk_______.

A. after Mother died

B. before she became a writer

C. when she was a child

D. when mother gave it to her

2.The passage shows that_______.

A. mother wrote her daughter in careful words

B. mother cared much about her daughter in words

C. mother was too serious about everything her daughter had done

D. mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter

3.The word “gulf” in the passage means________.

A. part of the sea going far in land

B. free talks between mother and daughter

C. different ideas between mother and daughter

D. deep understanding between the old and the young

4.What did mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?

A. She had never received the letter.

B. She read the letter again and again till she died.

C. For years, she often talked about the letter.

D. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in her life.
