A few years ago， I took a sightseeing trip to Washington DC Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center， I heard a voice say， “Can you help me？” When I turned around， I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reaction， I reached into my pocket， pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didnt even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar. But the blind woman smiled and said， “I dont want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”

Immediately， I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice （偏見）—I judged another person simply for what I thought she was.

The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years， I have been a dishwasher， cashier， mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs， and finally I became a network engineer.

In my own life， I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time， at age 17 when I was a busboy， and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school， he would end up like me.

But now， living in my American middle-class lifestyle， it is too easy to forget my past， to forget who I am and where I have been， and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington DC cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.

24. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs？

A. The blind woman was an American.

B. The writer regretted his act of prejudice.

C. The blind woman needed the money badly.

D. The writer was as poor as the blind woman.

25. How did the writer feel when hearing the fathers words according to Paragraph 4？

A. Rather hurt. B. Very excited.

C. Deeply moved. D. Greatly inspired.

26. We can infer the writer holds the idea that one should ___ .

A. care for the elderly and the disabled

B. try to experience different kinds of life

C. treat others equally with love and respect

D. think about ones past as often as possible

27. What can be the best title for the text？

B. How My Dream Comes True

C. A Priceless Lesson in the Street

D. A Belief that Will Never Change

C

Earthquake rescue （救援） robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing. Their designers say that with these robots， rescue workers will be able to have more time to save more lives during an earthquake.

This robot looking like a helicopter， is called the detector-bot. Its about 4 meters long， and it took about 4 years to develop the model. Its main functions （作用） are to collect information from the air， and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people stuck in an earthquake.

This robot has a high-quality 360-degree panoramic camera. It can work day and night and will also be able to send the latest pictures from the quake area. Dr Qi Juntong， from Shenyang Institute of Automation， Chinese Academy of Science， said， “Unlike other automatic machines， the most important feature of this robot is that it doesnt need a distant control. We just set the information of the earthquake-struck area on it， and then it takes off， and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3，000 meters， and as fast as 100 kilometers per hour.”

This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes. Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go.

As well as a detector （探測器） that finds victims and detects poisonous gas， a camera is placed in the 40-centimeter-long robot， which can work well even in the dark to send clear pictures.

Another use for the rescuers is the supply bot， with its 10-meter-long pipe. People who are caught in the ruins will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.

Experts have said that the robots will enter production， and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team soon.

28. What is TRUE about the robot according to the text？

A. It weighs about 30 kilos.

B. It is a 10-meter-long machine.

C. It is a machine carried by a helicopter.

D. It sends supplies to the earthquake area.

29. Dr Qi Juntong thinks the robot is different mainly because  ___ .

A. it has more functions

B. it has a high-quality camera

C. it can change as the environment changes

D. it can work by himself once given the information

30. The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 5 refers to “___”.

A. a camera B. a detector C. a rescuer D. a robot

31. What is the text mainly about？

A. An introduction to the robot.

Mom and businessman Jaimee Newberry founded “Picture This”—a new company that allows kids to turn their drawings into dresses.

The process is simple： Parents choose a dress size and print out the coloring book-style models available on the “Picture This” website. Once their kids have colored and decorated the models， the grown-ups can upload photos of the completed designs on the website and place their orders. The finished dresses arrive within a few weeks.

“Picture This” was inspired by a dress Newberry made for her daughter， Zia， inspired by her artwork. In a medium post detailing the history of “Picture This”， Newberry wrote that Zia loved the dress and told people， “Im wearing my imagination！”

“Due to the positive response and requests from Zias friends and classmates， Ken， Igi， Stephen and I chatted about how to turn this idea into something where kids everywhere could have fun with hands-on drawing and coloring， and then see their imaginative artwork come to life in wearable fashion form，” Newberry explained.
