their knowledge and experience together and create a surgical standard of care，to be carried out by machines？That's the idea behind surgical robots，which may soon perform most surgeries，from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart proceduresMany of these operations are，in fact，already completed with the assistance of robotsBut a recent test suggests that robots in the operating room may soon go a step further，performing on soft tissue completely on their own，from start to finishThe Smart Tissue Autonomous RobotSTAR，successfully completed surgeries on pigs"We're the first group to develop autonomous robotic surgery with softtissue surgery，and when compared to standard operation，it's better，"says Peter Kim，professor of surgery"The idea is not to replace surgeons； it will make the surgeons better and make the procedures safer"A recent Mayo Clinic study found that major surgical errorsincluding operating on the wrong site or side of the body，or even leaving tools or objects inside the patientoccur every one out of 22，000proceduresThat's rare，but robots like STAR would aim to lower the number even furtherIn the da Vinci surgical system，surgeons place their arms inside instruments and use their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on the operating table from afarThe robot's every major move is controlled by surgeons，and thus its results may vary based on the surgeon's training or experienceSTAR，on the other hand，is entirely autonomousIt's not only able to work on its own and perform surgeries with a more flexible"hand"，but it's able to react to the unexpected incidentsCutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing，but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complexSTAR reacts to a changing environment，similar to how selfdriving cars are programmed to not only drive on the highway，but also react to another driver making a mistake and getting in your way24The underlined word"infallible"in Paragraph 1probably meansAalways right Breally creative Crather responsible Dquite smart25We can learn from the passage that STARAhas been widely used in the operating room Bcan perform the operation on its ownCcan make surgeries much faster Dwill take the place of surgeons26In the da Vinci surgical system， Arobots are trained from afar Bsurgery results depend on surgeonsCrobots always make mistakes Dsurgeons have trouble controlling robots27In the last paragraph，the author mentions selfdriving cars in order to showAhow bad getting in another driver's way is B.how difficult self-driving on the highway isChow smart an autonomous robot can be Dhow dangerous operating on people isCFor several years，the art trade in London has known about the possible existence of the"treasure of the western cave"，dating from the 6th century BCIt was said to have been discovered"by farmers"in western Iran around 1992Out of between 200and 600pieces，only a few have so far"surfaced"The Iranians were very angry that they managed to seize only part of the collection and that the rest was taken abroad illegallyBut now they may worry lessAn academic paper has just produced convincing evidence that at least one piece is a fake 赝品Fakes always exist in the world of antiquities古物，but what is astonishing is how widespread they are nowA report from the Archaeological Institute of America concludes that no less than 80per cent of all"ancient"west African pieces on the market are fakeHow can this"forgery伪造 culture"boom？It is found that about 80per cent of the antiquities traded have no clear sourceIn other words，it is not known where they were found and therefore，even if they are real，they can tell us little about ancient historyPeople in the trade say that the majority of these objects were found in"casual discoveries"Shamefully，they know that this is not trueThey advance the fiction because it suits their commercial purposesThe reality is that the objects come from robbery，not by local farmers"happening"on a few findsThe"treasure of the western cave"is a classic example of how faking worksFaking is big business，and is of such a standard that even the greatest scholars may be fooled some of the timeThe antiquities trade likes to play down not only the extent of robbery and faking，but also the overlap between the twoThese latest reports let the cat out of the bagBut it is the overlap with robbed antiquities that is the most significant factor，which leads to the culture of forgeryCollectors of antiquities need to be aware that they not only aid the robbery of potentially invaluable sites，but put themselves at the mercy of fakers as well28What do we probably know about the"treasure of the western cave"？ AIt's slightly broken BIt's totally real CIt's partly fake DIt's fairly new29What astonishes the author？ AThe huge number of fakes BThe long history of fakesCThe influence of fakes DThe origin of fakes30According to the passage，"forgery culture"mainly results from Aa belief in"casual discoveries" Bhigh faking standardsCantiquities without a clear source Dclose combination of robbery and faking31Which is probably the last sentence of the passage？ AThis is the main source for robbery BWhat shall be done to stop this trend？CAre collectors of antiquities aware of it？ DThey are being dishonest and foolishDFifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic全景的 view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didnt want to mess with that.Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured捕捉 and frozen on some strangers bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I dont even know has been immortalized使永存. In some ways, she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each others spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.32. What happened when the author was about to take a photo?A. Her camera stopped working. B. A woman blocked her view.C. Someone asked her to leave. D. A friend approached from behind.33. According to the author, the woman was probably_.A. enjoying herself B. losing her patienceC. waiting for the sunset D. thinking about her past34 In the authors opinion, what makes the photo so alive?A. The rich color of the landscape. B. The perfect positioning of the camera.C. The womans existence in the photo. D. The soft sunlight that summer day.35. The passage can be seen as the authors reflections upon _.A. a particular life experience B. the pleasure of travelingC. the art of photography D. a lost friendship第二节共5小题，每题2分，总分值10分根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项多余。Two hundred years after Charles Darwins birth, studies have found new details of his life at the University of Cambridge. Six leather-bound ledgers 皮革账本 discovered in the university show this. 36._He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time. 37._ He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor 裁缝, hatter and barber made sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christs Colleges basic food was meat and beer. 38. _Darwins bill topped 636 pounds during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later he described this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum 金额 would have been fairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century. 39
