26、s a kid in their class, he said. And his parents were pretty low-key about the whole affair, being used to all his accomplishments since a young age.

32、 be programmed to perform acts automatically. With the increase in high technology, robots are taking over boring or inconvenient work in many areas of life.One area where robots are making an appearance is farming. There is a robotic revolution going on in the milking industry, and cows, as well as

33、 farmers are experiencing the benefits. The advantage for the cows is that they can choose when and how many times a day they want to be milked. On the other hand. farmers no longer have to get up at 4 a. m. every day to go to the milking sheds and this makes a huge difference to their way of lifeIn

34、 traditional fanning, cows are milked twice a day, in the morning and the evening, mainly because: this is the most convenient way for farmers to get two milking sessions completed in one day. However, this is not necessarily the best way for each individual cow. Because the robots are programmed to

35、 milk the cows whenever they arrive, the cows can be milked once, twice or even four times a day. It is an entirely voluntary system for the cows. They decide. Farmers report that midnight is a particularly busy time at the milking shed. The interesting thing is the cows like the system once they ge

36、t used to it. Farmers report that milk production increases, the cows live longer and they seem far more relaxed.The computerized robotic system is entirely automatic. As the cows enter the facility, they far weighed, milked and productivity and health checks are carried out. The facility cleans its

37、elf at regular intervals （可 Pra） and if there is a problem, the robot sends the farmer a message.Equipping a farm with robots is not cheap. However, farmers who have installed the robotic milking sheds, say they would never go back to the old system. The commonly reported sight of cows queuing patie

To tell the readers what is a robot.D. Toprovide the definition of robotic system.9. What benefit may robots bring

Which of the following would the author probably agree?A. Morning and evening are the two most convenient milk

40、ing sessions for cows.B. The robotic system is voluntary for cows to be milked of their own free will.C. The robotic system is entirely automatic except for health checks.D. The robotic system is so expensive that farmers will never install one.11. What would be the best title for the text?A. A robo

41、tic revolution in milkingB. Cows favourite helperC. Hands free for the farmersD. An expensive milking shedDThose who don*t live in cities often complain about or feel surprised at the fact that strangers don*t talk to each other in urban public places. They feel sorry about the way we seem to increa

42、singly get lost in mobile devices, seemingly oblivious towhats going on around us. But sociologists recognize that the space we give each other in the urban places serves an important social function.Well-known sociologist Erving Goffman developed the concept of u civil inattentionn in his book Beha

43、vior in Public Places. Far from ignoring those around us, Goffman proved through years of studying people in public that what were actually doing is pretending to be unaware of what others are doing around us, therefore providing them a sense of privacy, as they do the same for us. Goffman proved in

44、 his research that civil inattention typically involves at first a mirror form of social interaction, like very brief eye contact, the exchange of head nods, or weak smiles. Following that, both parties then typically shin their eyes from the other party.Goffman theorized that what we achieve, socia

45、lly speaking, with this kind of interaction, is mutual （相互的）recognition that the other present causes no threat to our security, and we both agree, tacitly （默契地）,to let the other alone to do as they please. When we provide civil inattention to others, weeffectively approve their behavior. Sometimes,

46、 we use civil inattention to save face when weve donesomething we feel embarrassed by, or to help manage the embarrassment that another might feel if wewitness them trip, or drop something.Civil inattention is thus not a problem, but an important part of maintaining social order in public. For this

47、reason, problems arise when this norm （规范）is broken. Because we expect it from others andsee it as normal behavior, we may feel threatened by someone who doesnt give it to us. This is whywomen feel threatened by those who catcall （发嘘声）to them, and why for some men, simply beingstared at by another i
