9、A第 2 页 共 6 页Driving to a friends house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friends rooftops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most city people, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we

10、 spend most of our lives indoors.My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life. I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some frien

11、ds. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires (篝火) outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside.

13、 heaters, ovens , air-conditioners, cars and computers.Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage.

18、n vehicles (车辆) lined up last March to race across the Mojave Desert, seeking a million in prize money. To win, they had to finish the 142-mile race in less than 10 hours. Teams and watchers knew there might be no winner at all, because these vehicles were missing a key partdrivers.第 3 页 共 6 页DARPA,

19、 the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, organized the race as part of a push to develop robotic vehicles for future battlefields, where a fight between two armies takes place.

23、 such as advanced (先进的) computers and GPS, they had difficulty working out fast enough the blocks (障碍) in front of them, which a two-year-old human recognizes immediately. Sure, that very young child, who has just only learned to walk, may not think to wipe apple juice off her face, but she already

24、knows that when theres a cookie in the kitchen she has to climb up the table, and that when she gets to the cookie it will taste good. She is more advanced, even months old, than any machine humans have designed.26. Watchers doubted (怀疑) if any of the vehicles could finish the race because _.A. they

30、he language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples.

34、s and marks.

35、l teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of ones life is nonsense (无意义的) in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours.
