account.Little did he know,he was about to make an incredible discovery.When he arrived at the ATM machine,Jose noticed a clear plastic bag on the ground filled with cash.It turnedout to be$135,000 worth of$50 and$20 bills.When he first saw it,he stared at it for a few seconds,not knowingwhat to do.He was very shocked.He had never seen so much money.After taking a moment to collect himseltJose

to work in law enforcement（执法机关）himself and currently studiescriminal justice at Central New Mexico Community College.Local businesses have showered Jose with accolades.He has received gift cards from

difficult task.Robots that walk or roll along the ground can step on the easilydamaged plants heavily.And they have to stop working when it rains.Tarzan”,however,could deal with some ofthose challenges.Jonathan Rogers is a robotics expert at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta.When it comes to afarm environment,he realized robots would face many problems.Many robots tend to get stuck/he says,Itsvery hard to leave them out for long periods without a human helping them.What if the robot could move above the crops?Jonathan Rogers says.Then his team set out to design a robotthat could swing hand to hand along wires hung above the field.He named their invention Tarzan after thejungle-swinging character in a movie.Mark Spong,a robotics researcher at the University of Texasat Dallas says that he admires Tarzan for its usingswinging movement to save energy and the idea of building a wire structure to move around above crops.Rogers first predicted that Tarzan could help farmers monitor crops with sensors and cameras.But he alsosaid future robots might take water to a particularly thirsty plant.And adding a third hand could allow such arobot to harvest fruits and

productivity declines.36.Here area few steps you can take to stop wasting time at work and start doing your job more efficiently.37.Its easy to get distracted at the office when youre surrounded by chatty colleagues and sideconversations that are far more interesting than the work you*re supposed to be doing.But if you let yourself getsucked into those discussions,youre likely to fall behind.If you cant tear yourself away from the folks around you,try to find a quiet spot in the office,like the corner conference room most folks forget about.Turn off your cellphone,A quick text message here and there during the workday might seem innocentenough,but a brief back-and-forth can quickly turn into a conversation-one that takes you away from moreimportant tasks.38.Organize your calendar.39.But if youre guilty of not maximizing your time at the office,itll help to create adaily calendar with blocks of time for various tasks.For example,if you give yourself from 4 p.m.to 5p.m.towrite up your

when youre trying to do better.40.Shred papers you dont need,file essential documents in some sort of order,and make your supplies moreaccessible.The less time you spend navigating the disaster zone that is your workspace,the more time youllfree up to actually do your job.A.Escape from the crowd.B.Lock yourself in quiet spaces.C.So spare out some time to get it organized.D.This way,you can then go back to concentrating.E.If youre eager to stop wasting time at the office,silence your cellphone.F.It could be because youre wasting time ratherthan focusing on key tasks at hand.G.Itseasy to waste time when you dont have a preset schedule outlining your days at work.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第 一 节 完 形 填 空（共 20小题，每小题1.5分，满 分 30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出适合填入对应空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A man was
