Think of the empty cities in zombie(僵尸)movies.The streets,the shops and the schools still there just like they would be on a normal day,except there are no people to be seen.It is the emptiness that scares you.
Now a real﹣life "ghost city" is being built in the US.But fortunately,it has nothing to do with zombies﹣it is going to be a place to test the technology of the future.
Called CITE﹣the Center for Innovation(创新),Testing and Evaluation(测评)-the city is the idea of technology company Pegasus Global Holdings.Covering an area of 15 square miles(39 square kilometers),it is the size of a small US city and sits in the middle of the New Mexico desert.
But why do we need an empty city that nobody will call home?
The reason is that we can't afford to test the latest technologies in the cities that we live in﹣they might not be ready and could cause problems and danger in our everyday lives.
“It will be a true laboratory without the problems and safety issues that come with people living there.Here you can break things and run into things, and get used to how they work,before taking them out into the market”,Pegasus managing director Robert Brumley told technology magazine Wired.
In fact,without worrying about hurting people,anybody with a new idea can ask to test it in this city.Just think about the possibilities﹣driverless cars can move freely on the streets,homes with robots can be designed and energy sources like nuclear power can also be put to the test.
As good as the idea may seem,however,there are still doubts about CITE.“One of the most difficult things to do when developing these new technologies is to have them safely move around
people,who can suddenly jump out in front of something,” Reese Jones,a founder of Singularity University,US,told Fortune magazine.
Jones is worried that,even if a technology works perfectly well in CITE, introducing it to a real city will still be a whole different story because there will be people living in the city.
But no matter what,perhaps we should wait until CITE is finished in 2018.Maybe it will turn out to work just fine.
4.The empty city is being built__________.
A. so people can experience the technology of the future
B. to try driverless cars and robots in
C. to test new technology in
D. as a place full of the latest technology
5.Which of the following statements is TRUE about CITE?
A. It is located beside the New Mexico desert.
B. It was started by Singularity University.
C. Things in the city can easily be broken down and built again.
D. Anyone can ask to try out their new designs there.
6.According to Jones,__________.
A.CITE offers great possibilities for future technology
B. new technologies will work perfectly well with the help of CITE
C. settings in CITE should be real in order to create the best results
D. testing results in CITE may not prove to work in a real city
7.What is the main purpose of this article?
A. To explain why CITE could be very helpful.
B. To show that CITE has a bright future.
C. To explain CITE and problems it may have.
D. To offer a good solution that will help to develop future technologies.

After a serious accident ended his snowboarding career,Kevin Pearce is starting over and looking to a new future.
Kevin Pearce has no memory of the crash that brought his snowboarding career to a sudden
stop.On December 31,2009,he was training for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Park City,Utah,when he fell and hit his head on the edge of the halfpipe.(U型管).
Luckily,he was wearing a helmet.Doctors say it saved his life.But he suffered a brain injury that affected his vision,balance and memory.He spent four months recovering in hospitals.He still can't recall several weeks of his life after the accident.What he does remember is watching the Olympics on TV and seeing Shaun White win the gold."It was hard lying there in the shape I was in,watching those guys do amazing tricks,"admits Pearce.
Today,Pearce's focus is getting his health back to 100%.So far,he's made great progress in his physical therapy (治疗).A year ago,he couldn't walk straight.Now,not only can he walk,he can drive again too.
Pearce says his speedy recovery is the result of his fans,his friends and mostly,his family.His mother,Pia,says her youngest son's attitude helped too."I knew Kevin was going to find a way to be okay."
These days,Pearce is back on the snowboarding circuit(环道).Instead of performing tricks,though,he's commenting on them from the broadcasting booth.(小房间)He still longs for competition.But he understands the danger of another fall.
8.The main purpose of the text is to .
A.advise people to live a healthy life B.explain the meaning of fair competition
C.stress the importance of a strong will D.introduce one popular winter sport.
9.Kevin Pearce can say nothing about the accident because he .
A.doesn't want to recall the terrible experience
B.wasn't allowed to say anything about it
C.lost the power of speech in the accident
D.has no memory of the accident
10.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence by Pearce's mother in Paragraph 5?
A.She has confidence in her son's recovery.
B.She is very worried about her son's health.
C.She is thankful to her friends and relatives.
D.She regrets she can't help her son recovery.

C.is still lying in bed and watching TV. D.is learning new tricks from other players
D
We know the famous ones﹣the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells﹣but what about the less famous inventors?What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper (雨刮器)?Shouldn't we know who they are?Joan Mclean thinks so.In fact,Mclean,a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range,feels so strongly about this matter that she's developed a course on the topic.In addition to learning"who"invented"what",however,Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the"why"and"how"questions.According to Mclean,"When students learn the answers to these questions,they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try."
Her students agree.One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean's statement.“If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper's invention,”said Tommy Lee,a senior physics major.“I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so meaningful.”Lee is currently negotiating(商谈)to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.
So,just what is the story behind the windshield wiper?Well,Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City.The day was cold and stormy,but Anderson still wanted to see the sights,so she jumped aboard a streetcar.Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield,she found herself wondering why there couldn't be a built﹣in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham,Alabama,Anderson started working out solutions.One of her ideas,a lever (操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside,became the first windshield wiper.
Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations(创新).It's hard to imagine driving without Garrett A.Morgan's traffic light.It's equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J.Blodgett's innovation that makes glass invisible.
12.By mentioning"traffic light"and"windshield wiper",the author indicates that countless inventions are .
A.beneficial,though their inventors are less famous
B.beneficial,because their inventors are famous
C.not useful,because their inventors are less famous
D.not useful,though their inventors are famous
13.Professor Joan McLean's course aims to .
A.add color and variety to students'campus life
B.prepare students to try their own invention
C.carry out the requirements by Mountain University
D.inform students of the windshield wiper's invention
14.Tommy Lee's invention of the unbreakable umbrella was .
A.not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer
B.not related to Professor Joan McLean's lectures
C.due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm
D.inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper
15.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?
A.How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?
B.How to Design a Built﹣in Device for Cleaning the Window?
C.Shouldn't We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?
D.Shouldn't We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?
