drones(无人机)cautiously surveying the world on behalf of their shadowy masters.In 2007 antiwar protesters in America claimed they were being watched by small hovering robots that looked like dragonflies.Officials maintained they really were dragonflies.Whatever the truth,robotic flies actually are now getting airborne(升空)This week the successful flight of what are probably the smallest hovering robots yet was reported in Science by Robert Wood and his colleagues at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard.These robots are the size of crane flies.Wingtip to wingtip they measure 3cm and they weigh just 80 milligrams.Like true flies,and unlike dragonflies or butterflies,they have but a single pair of wings.Dr.Wood,as he is quick to point out,is not trying to build a 第 5 页 military drone.Rather,it is the basic science behind flying insects that he and his team are interested in.No doubt the armed forces are taking a keen interest in this sort of work.But civilian applications such as search and rescue,he thinks,are likely to be as important as military and security ones.Indeed,the idea that inspired the study was that of using swarms of robotic flies to pollinate(授粉)crops.Flies,as anyone who has tried to hit one knows,are the most intelligent of flying creatures.Dr.Wood and his colleagues considered it impossible,even with the best miniaturised(使小型化)mechanical and electrical parts currently available,to build an artificial version of one that would show anything like that level of aerial prowess(空中实力).They therefore had to come up with a new form of manufacturing,which they call smart composite microstructures(SCM),to do the job.s robots are modelled on a hoverfly called Eristalis.They have a long way to go before they can mimic the precision of such a creatures flight.They can,nevertheless,hover.They can also carry out simple movements.These include turning by flapping one wing harder than the other.s flies are similarly computercontrolled and this,for the moment,is where the illusion(幻觉，错觉)breaks down,because 第 6 页 the computer is on a desktop and is connected to the robot by a thin copper wire.That could be fixed with a suitable chip.But the wire also carries electric power:19 milliwatts,which is equal to the power consumed by a flying insect of the same size.Batteries light enough to fly with do exist.But they would keep the robot going for only a few minutes.1Why did Dr.Wood and his colleague invent a new form of manufacturing called SCM ABecause they could model robots on a hoverfly called Eristalis.BBecause they were only interested in the basic science behind flying insects.CBecause they found it impossible to build an artificial version of intelligent flying insects.D Because they have created the smallest hovering robots with but a single pair of wings.s hovering robots,we can know that _.Athey are able to fly as precisely as a fly Bthey have nervous systems like insects Cthey fly stably with flightcontrol systems Dthey are insectlike and no bigger than a fly 第 7 页 3What is the meaning of the underlined word“mimic in Paragraph 5 AIncrease.BCopy.CPractise.DImprove.4From the last paragraph we can infer that_.Awhat is needed may be a breakthrough in battery Bthese flying robots should be changed into smaller and lighter ones Cflying around the laboratory is more important than flying outdoors Dmore research should be done on the size and weight of the flying robots.书面表达(2021 扬州高三调研)阅读下面短文，然后按要求写一篇 150 词左右的英语短文。A teenager passed his driving test and was eager to drive his fathers car.His father agreed.He asked his son to drop him off before the son took the car for servicing.The father then wanted his son to pick him up at four in the afternoon so that they could go home together.The boy dropped off his father,took the car to the garage and went to watch a film.Losing track of time,he continued to watch 第 8 页 the film until six pm.Afraid his father would scold him for being late,the boy collected the car,arrived at the place and said,“Dad,Im sorry Im late but it took longer than usual to service the car.“Son,I phoned the garage，his father replied.“The car was ready at four pm.The boy looked down and said,“I m sorry,but I went to watch a film.“Son,Im very angry，replied the father.“But not with you.Im angry with myself.Where did I go wrong as a father Why did you have to lie to me Take the car home.I will reflect on it as I walk.The boy followed his father,begging him to sit inside the car.But his father continued walking silently all the way back home.From that day on the son never again lied to his parents.写作内容 1用约 30 个词概括上文的主要内容。2用约 120 个词谈谈你对“说谎的看法，内容包括：(1)你怎么理解故事中儿子爸爸的反响；(2)描述一次你(或你的朋友)说谎的经过及其结果；(3)这次经历给你(或你的朋友)的教训与启示。写作要求

Wood 博士及其同事研发该机器的初衷，描述了该飞行机器的外形特征、用途及须改善之处。1 选 C 细节理解题。文章第四段中提及 Wood 博士及其同事认为，即使拥有目前最好的微型机械与电气零件，也无法研制出一个具有实际苍蝇飞行能力的人造苍蝇。因此，他们不得不采用一种新的制造形式来完成这项工作，他们将其称为智能复合材料微观构造(SCM)。故答案为 C。2选 D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二、三、四句可知，答案为 D。3选 B 词义猜想题。文章第五段指出，Wood 博士的机器人是模仿一种被称作蚜蝇(Eristalis)的食蚜蝇而制造的。准确模仿这种生物的飞行还需要大量的工作才能实现。尽管如此，它们现在已经可以悬浮在空中。第 12 页 它们还可以完成简单的飞行动作。因此 mimic 是“模仿的意思。故答案为 B。4选 A 推理判断题。文章最后一段指出“这也可以利用适宜的芯片替代。但该引线也可运载 19 毫瓦的电力，相当于大小一样的飞虫消耗的功率。利用轻质电池也可实现该技术。但是它们仅供机器人飞行几分钟。可推知，还需要在电池方面作改良。故答案为 A。.参考范文：A teenager lied to his father when he failed to pick him up on time.Instead of scolding the boy,the angry father walked home to punish himself.The son felt guilty and never lied again.I totally understand the fathers reactions in the article.He might have reflected he himself had done wrong somewhere so that his son wasnt frank with him and that it was his own fault.The deep love and concern toward his child is vividly conveyed in his selfcriticism.This story reminds me of an unforgettable experience.One weekend,last year,I was supposed to attend an enrichment class.Somehow,it was cancelled.Instead of staying at home,I lied to my mother and spent that whole afternoon hanging around with my friends.That evening when I got home,my angry mum,who actually had learned about the truth from my classmates earlier,taught me a good lesson.I ended up with my mum accompanying 第 13 页 me to every enrichment class.I was really sad to have lost my mums trust.From this experience,I have realized that telling lies can do nothing but worsen our faults.Any attempt to lie will get us to risk losing the trust from others.Therefore,we should face our mistakes bravely and deal with the troubles before they get worse.No one will refuse to forgive a sincere person who has righted the wrongs.
