CBWhen Frank Herbert ordered pizza from Pizza Huts， he was surprised that Judit， at such an old age， worked as a delivery driver. That's when the 89-year-old man first came into the sight of the Herbert family. Judit Newey started delivering pizza in Roy， Utah， to help pay the bills， as his social security benefits (社会保障金) weren't enough to live on. From the moment the Herberts heard him say， “Hello， are you looking for some pizza，" Judit found his way into their hearts!Ever since that day， whenever they place an order， they ask for Judit personally. It didn't take long for them to begin recording their sweet meetings and share them on TikTok， which is how thousands of other people fell in love with Judit.

They explained that they had rallied their TikTok community to support him， and while he's not entirely sure what the platform is， he couldn't be more thankful. “How do ever say thank you？ I don't know what to say， "he told them.

ACProfessor Cooper once gave a lecture in his first acting class for us in the first term， informing us of the significance of valuing the business of acting. As I made preparations for my graduation as a senior， I thought back on the lecture in the first class and I considered my love for the art of theatre seriously. I'm more than happy to say that， for the most part， my determination for acting remained as strong as ever. Even after I've learned about the difficulties and the heartbreak that go with working as an actor， I know that it is still the right path for me. Something Professor Cooper said in that first acting class has stuck with me through these last three years. He said， "Every actor chooses to act for their own reasonspersonally I do it because I have to. I have to perform. It's who l am." For as long as I've been performing， I've wondered how to best describe why I do what I do. Professor Cooper answered that question for me that day. When I was little and first imagined what it would be like to be a real actor， I would imagine being famous about by many people someday. However， I never actually wanted that. I act because no matter what is going on in my life， no matter how stressed I am with what's happening outside of or during practices， when I'm on stage， I'm home and I'm me. Many parents will feel worried about their children's choosing to be an actor. Some will be surprised. My parents are just exceptions. They knew from the start that nothing was going to keep me from doing what I love.8. What did the author realize after recalling what Professor Cooper said？A. She learned acting for fun.B.

The acting changed the author's life.D. What the author learned about acting.【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. BDThere's one problem that Silicon Valley hasn't solved even though self-driving cars become more and more popular nowadays. That is the traffic jam. But a U.K. aeronautics and space company， Airbus Group， may find a solution. The company's branch in Silicon Valley recently announced it's been working on a secret project titled "Vahana"， an autonomous flying vehicle which can be used for not only passenger but also goods transport. Airbus' flying taxi is designed to resemble a drone（无人机）， traveling medium-length distances. Developers in France and Germany are working on an electrically operated platform that would allow the flying taxi to carry multiple passengers once between city destinations. The vehicle would initially be manned by a pilot， for no countries allow completely autonomous flying vehicles at present. Flight tests of the first Vahana prototype（原型）are planned， in the hope of bringing the product to consumers quickly. That's about ten years sooner than another future-travel system Hyperloop One. "I'm no big fan of Star Wars， but it's not crazy to imagine that one day our big cities will have flying cars making their way along roads in the sky，" says Airbus Group CEO Tom Enders. "In a not-too-distant future， we'll use our smartphones to book a fully automated flying taxi that will land outside our front doorwithout any pilot. But before you get too excited about beating rush-hour traffic， it's worth noting that the company has a lot of technological kinks to work out before the product is ready to test. The same sensor technology that allows self-driving cars to avoid accidents doesn't exist for aerial vehicles. Airbus Group isn't the only company trying to get in the autonomous air transportation game. There are a number of drone companies on the market and the Ehang 184， a Chinese passenger drone， will begin flight testing in June.12. What is the purpose of the Vahana？A. To explore space.B. To design a new type of car.C. To reduce traffic accidents.D. To find a solution to the traffic jam.13. Why would present flying taxi be manned by a pilot？来源:中#国教*育出版网%A. It may cause accidents.B. It is operated electrically.C. It is designed to be manned.D. It is illegally permitted worldwide.中%&国#教育出版网14. What do we learn in the last paragraph？A.

There is a long way for Airbus Group to go in solving technological problems.www%.zzs*te#p.comD. The sensor technology for self-driving cars can help aerial vehicles to avoid accidents.15.

What sets people apart is how they react to that bump. Are you one to lose control in disappointment？ Or do you catch hold of that wheel and push yourself straight？ Whether it's a school assignment， or a work project， you all meet things that slow you down. _16_ Sometimes it is easy just to give up and ignore the hard work you have put into something.

So how can you react when something doesn't turn out as you've expected？ Maybe that's because you don't make proper prediction， which is not a shame. _18_ After all， nobody else is. You just need to step back and look at the situation. Then rearrange your next move. Ask for help if necessary. Oftentimes， people are more than willing to give you support and advice.
