pioneer of Roman comedy.Ironic and improvisational(即兴的),it was used mainly atfestivals or weddings,and as invective.With early native Italian funny dialogues in Latin verse,it was thought tohave combined with a tradition of performances by masked dancers and musicians from Etruria.Fabula AtellanaFabula Atellana relied on common characters,masks,direct humor,and simple plots.They were performedby actors improvising.Fabula Atellana came from the Oscan city of Atella.There were 4 main types of characters:the braggart,the greedy blockhead,the clever hunchback and the stupid old

art.Even though he wasnt the best student in school,Picasso excelled at drawing.Noticing his amazing talent,Picassos father,an artist,taught him everything he knew.Before long,Picasso couldpaint and draw much better than his father.With this rich talent,Picasso paid less and less attention to hisschoolwork and spent the majority of his day sketching and drawing in notepads and sketchbooks.When he was a little bit older,Picasso moved twice and was accepted into two fine art programs.However,he didnt care very much for the special techniques they taught and often wandered the streets by himselfdrawing the scenes around him.After moving to these two places,Picasso moved back home toBarcelonaanddecided that he would develop new techniques of art and painting based on what he saw.Later,Picasso decided to move toParis,France,where he began perfecting his own techniques of painting,drawing and other forms of art.His drawings.paintings,and an included pieces about sadness,poverty,classicsand self-portraits.One of his major types of work is calledcubism(立体派),which includes art with all sizes ofgeometric shapes together on the piece of an.This type of art is very important because no other artists had comeup with the idea before.Picasso decided to try something new,and as a result,cubismis widely accepted today asa classic style of art.Picasso inspires us to always be thinking.He tells us to think outside the box and come up with fresh newideas that can change the world.He surely plays a significant role in the art field.4.What do we know about Picasso as

three of us in the laboratory:Jules,me and Dr.Leonards.Leonards asks me to sit in front of Jules.As I do,he looks me in the eye and starts to move his face through a series of emotions-happy,confused,surprised,glaring.Im attracted by his display,feeling delight when hegrinsand feeling serious when his eyes narrow angrily.None of this would be a surprise,of course,if Jules were a human.But hes a robot head on a table.The most special thing is that,consciously(有意识地),theres no mistaking Jules for a real person.Althoughhe has surprisingly realistic skin,his eyes dont fit firmly against his lids,and he has a terrible hairpiece.Yet,as Iwalk into the room,I experience a complex worry of feeling in his direction.Its not at all like entering an emptyspace.Its a bit awkward for Jules shining false hair.Some unconscious part of me is responding to him as if hesreal.This matters,because if were to one day live comfortably along with robots,an understanding of how weinstinctively(本能地)react to them is significant.The study of these issues is the frontier of a new scientificresearch;human-robot interaction.Jules was built as part of an attempt to understand the emotions that can be communicated by a human.“Allthe robots wevebuilt so far dont have that rich emotions.We wanted to build a robotic face,with small motorsthat mimic(模仿)all the muscles you have,so we could discover what it could express.Such research is becomingincreasingly important,says Dr.Leonards,partly because our rapidly ageing population will soon need the help ofrobots with which they can effortlessly interact.8.What does the author think of Jules?A.He ignored him in his place.B.He didnt treat him as only a robot.C.He was afraid of his being there.D.He mistook him for a real person.9.What is the purpose to build such a robot?A.To help humans of old ages.B.To carry out a scientific research.C.To take the place of human labour.D.To make an interaction with human.10.What doesthe underlined word“grins”mean in Paragraph1?A.Smiles.B.Shakes.C.Worries.D.Cries.11.What may be the best title for the text?A.Human And RobotB.Success Of Making A RobotC.Robot Will Replace ManD.Difference Between Man And RobotDUntil quarantine(隔离期)ends,we are left picturing what sport we might do:working out at the gym,playing on a competitive sports team,swimming,biking,or rock climbing.However,we dont often think ofmartial arts as possible activities;instead,we rule it out because we think its dangerous,uncommon,and even,impossible.Martial arts arent considered a sport,right?Well,heres some good news:youre wrong!Martial arts arent much more common than people think,andyou can start learning at any age.Practicing martial arts is a great way to keep in shape,both physically andmentally.Theyre much less boring and much lessarduoussport than theyre usually described as in movies,so donot worry that they need a lot of effort.Martial arts generally require you to focus on the position and movement of every one of your legs and arms,sometimes even your breathing too.Think about it:when you leave the gym,your mental state has improved andyou are much calmer.This is because youve only paid attention to one activity.It is a great way to clear your head.Andpracticing it can help you learn to stay more focused,which is the greatest advantage of martial arts training.Martial arts also improve your coordination(协调性),and greatly improve your posture(姿势).I havepersonally seen students go from slouching(没精打采)to walking tall with their shoulders back in just a couple ofmonths.There are many styles and countless kinds of martial arts.Whichever one you like better,know that all ofthem are good choices.12.What can we know about martial arts from

movement.D.Keeping ones attention.15.What does the writer think of martial arts?A.They are notsports.B.They attracted many teenagers.C.They are beneficial and helpful.D.They were invented to protect others.第二节(共第二节(共 5 5 小题;每小题小题;每小题 2 2 分,满分分,满分 1 10 0 分)分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项Ways to make a great first impressionYouve heard it a million times already,but it really does take
