11、University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform con

12、trolled flight tasks.“Its extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got t

13、he go-ahead to start piecing the components together. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemin

14、gly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, and then has to be matched well to everything its connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensi

15、ng and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on boar

16、d could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scient

17、ific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”1、What was the difficulty for engineers to make the robotic fly?ALacking enough engineers.BLacking ready-made components.CStarling to study the system too late.DHaving no way to fix components together.2、What was the system of the

18、robotic fly like?AIt was huge but solid.BIt was small and changeable.CIt was complex but precise.DIt was fixed and traditional.3、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?AEngineers will fix the system on some animals.BThe system of the robotic fly will have a great effect on our daily life.CThe

19、system of the robotic fly will face lots of scientific questions.DEngineers will use the findings of the system to do further research.4、What can we learn from the text?ARobert Wood did the research on his own.BWood will produce the system to put it onto the market.CThe robotic system can have some

21、s,scientists have been arguing about how rainforests like the Amazon might have reacted to the cold,dry climates of the ice ages, but until now,no one has reached a satisfying answer.Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming.C

22、urrently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year: equal to the total amount of CO2 giving off in the UK each year.But how will the Amazon react to future climate change?If it gets drier, will it still survive and continue to draw down CO2 ?Scientists hope that they w

24、ed pollen,kept in lake mud.Going back to the last ice age means drilling deep down into lake sediments（沉淀物）which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery.There are very few roads and paths,or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes.Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest,bu

25、t this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled（未取樣）.So far,only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon rainforest reacts to climate change.1、What does the underlined phrase “mop

But Bock said it was the “wrong”hiring strategy. Experience has tau

30、ght him there are exceptional kids at many other places,from state schools in California to New York.“What we find is the best people from places like that are just as good，if not better，as anybody you can get from any Ivy League school，”said Bock，who just authored a book titled“Work Rules!”Every ye

Bock himself has seen some 25,000 rsums.So what else does Google not care about:Grades:Googles data shows that grades predict performance for the first two years of a career，but do not matter after that.Brain-teasers:Gone are interview questions such

32、 as:Why are manhole covers（井蓋)round? or How many golf balls can fit in a school bus?“Our research tells us those questions are a waste of time,”Bock said“Theyre a really coachable skill.The more you practice,you get better at it.”Heres what Google does care about:Problem solvers:Your cognitive abili

33、ty(認知能力),or how well you solve problems.Leaders:The idea is not whether you were president of the student body or vice president of the bank,but rather:“When you see a problem do you step in,help solve it,”and then critically，“Are you willing to step out and let somebody else take over，and make room

34、 for somebody else?Are you willing to give up power?”Googleyness:Thats what Google calls its cultural fit.Its not“Are you like us?”Bock said.“We actually look for people who are different，because diversity gives us great ideas.”“Whats most important is that people are intellectually humble,willing t

35、o admit when theyre wrong,and care about the environment around them.because we want people who think like owners not employess,”Bock said.The least important thing?Knowing how to do the job.“We figure if you get the first three right youll figure it out most of the time.”1、What does Bock mean in Pa

40、 marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both.The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private

41、pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly.They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then youre good to go.When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road.There are no expensive

42、 parking fees because you dont have to store it at an airportyou park it in the garage at home.The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet.It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers.Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accid

48、ill be in my heart forever. Without you, there are only emptiness and desert in my life.” This is a line from a heartfelt poem Feng Duan wrote to his fiancee Chen Lianfang in 1955.Feng is now 94 and Chen 90, and they have been married for more than half a century. Feng, an academic at the Chinese Ac

49、ademy of Sciences, may not be a professional poet but for 64 years, Feng has written countless love poems to his wife. On every important anniversary or festival, Feng would send a poem to Chen. In 1978, when Chens cancer surgery succeeded, Feng created more than ten poems to celebrate his wifes rec

The academic has also translated many English, French and German poems into classical Chinese.The couple was introduced to each other by a common friend in 1953 and Feng sent two paper copies of poems to Chen as a gift.“As long as I think of

51、 you, a beam of sunshine lights up my heart,” Feng wrote.Chen recalled the first time Feng invited her to his dormitory to have a cup of tea and she thought the cup was made of frosted glass. As the two became closer, Chen often visited the academics dorm. She realized that the cup was the only one

52、poor Feng owned. The opaque (不透明的) cup was not frosted glass but common glass stained with toothpaste.Later she bought many clothes and even a stove for Feng, making a nice change from the single man s life.
