The robot takes their places at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends.The robot is called AV1. A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home, children use a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then they use the same device to control the robots movements. At school, the robot becomes their eyes, ears and voice.So, it sits at the childs desk in the classroom and the child uses a tablet or a phone to start it and control its movements and talks through it. So its the eyes, the ears and the voice at school. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communication easy.AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend of the children. It cant be just a tiny camera because the other kids cant pick it up and take it with them.

Ill wear this; Ill buy this; Ill have this for lunch; Ill go there at 3 oclock; Ill reply to this e-mail.For some people, its not a big deal. For others, however, making decisions isnt easy. They agonize over what to do, changing their minds back and forth, and second guessing themselves even after the decision has been made.Emily was in the restaurant with her husband. After several minutes of reading the menu, she said, Um, lets see. I dont know what to order. Maybe Ill have the burger; no wait, the pasta seems good. Or, maybe the soup and salad. Don, what are you ordering? OK; that sounds good; Ill have that too. Don often gets annoyed (惱怒的) .He doesnt understand why she finds the simplest decisions so difficult. He sometimes makes decisions for the two of them. But Emil y gets annoyed with him for being so controlling. But wed never decide anything if I left it up to you, he argues.Good decision-making is a skill that comes easily to some people, not so easily to others. Choices are confusing. Choices can make you anxious. They can cost you peace of mind, even after youve made the decision. The skill of good decision-making has become increasingly important. Why? Because we have a lot of choices, both with the simple and the serious things in life.Decisions force us to close the door on other possibilities. Accept that you cant have it all. You cant order every delicious dish on the menu. And there will be paths not taken, things not experienced. Let the past be. Live in the present where what you do today will make a difference.Its often good to think through your decisions, but dont overdo it. More thinking is not always better thinking. Too much research may lead to confusion. Sixth sense can help make decisions as good as careful study of endless data(數(shù)據(jù)), sometimes even better.Some decisions dont work out as expected; this doesnt mean that you made a bad one. You decide to go on a cruise (油輪旅行). You choose a large and beautiful ship. Everything should work out just right. Only you didnt count on a bug that spread through the ship, making you and your family sick for five clays. You felt terrible for making such a stupid decision. No. You did not make a stupid decision. Its just that sometimes the unexpected happens.Try to make your decision. After all, its your special experience.6（1）The words agonize over in Paragraph 2 probably mean . A . think about a difficult decision carefully and with lots of effortB . stick to the big decision that you have madeC . let go of the decision that you have madeD . fear to make decision out of uncertainty（2）The writer mentioned Emily and her husband in Paragraph 3 to . A . criticize Emilys husband for controllingB . show how annoying indecisiveness could beC . introduce how hard it was to decide what to eatD . explain the difficulty Emily had when making a decision（3）What can we learn from the passage? A . We should think about all the possibilities before making a good decision.B . Neither research nor data may help people with decision-making.C . Sometimes unexpected situation may waste a good decision.D . People feel terrible when making decisions.（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A . Do you have difficulty making decisions?B . Are you good at making a difficult decision?C . Can you make a right decision easily or not?D . Would you like to make decisions for others?21. （6.0分）閱讀理解 Once upon a time in a land far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved all kinds of small animals, such as spiders, insects and butterflies and so on.One day while walking through the woods, the nice old man found a cocoon（繭） of a butterfly. He took it home.A few days later, a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to make its body out of that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared it could go no farther.Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then got out of the cocoon easily.But it had a swollen（腫脹的） body and small shriveled（枯萎的） wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge to be able to support the body, which would contract（收縮） in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings.What the warm-hearted man in his kindness did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Natures way of forcing fluid（體液） from the body of the butterfly into its wings, so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any difficulties, it would be bad for us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. And we could never fly.（1）How did the butterfly get out of the cocoon according to the passage? A . It got out of the cocoon by itself.B . The cocoon was broken.C . The old man helped it get out.D . Another butterfly helped it.（2）What does the underlined word struggle mean? A . Try very hard to.B . Have to.C . Have great difficulties to.D . Fight against.（3）When did the old man decide to help the butterfly? A . When the old man saw
