26、If businesses are to get workers back into the office, finding ways to keep social distancing will be important. An Israeli company thinks it can help, using smart sensors installed on workplace ceilings.

PointGrab developed its technology before COVID-19 to help workspace managers optimize(优化) how employees use office space. About the size of a smoke alarm, the sensors can record the exact number and location of people in buildings including offices, hotels and restaurants. One of the company's first clients was Deloitte, which installed the system at its London office last year. PointGrab's sensors were connected to screens in the building to show the availability (利用率) of desks and shared areas in real time. PointGrab CEO Doron Shachar says it was one of a series of innovations(创新) that helped Deloitte fit 30% more people into 3% less space.

Now to prevent the coronavirus spreading face to face, PointGrab has modified the technology to some degree so the sensors can also monitor social distancing by keeping track of how far apart people are, and whether they're traveling in one direction around a building. Workspace managers can set up alarm for when two people are closer than two meters for more than 30 seconds, for example. The sensors have been included in the “six feet office” concept created by a company Cushman & Wakefield to encourage employees to practice social distancing. They are currently being used in this way at a university in the Netherlands, and at an innovation centre in Belgium. While the social distancing innovation is new, PointGrab has installed more than 10, 000 sensors for workspace optimization, including in the offices of Coca-Cola, Facebook and Dell.

Workers might not like the idea of being monitored, but PointGrab says no images or identifying features are recorded. Instead, each employee is represented as a dot on a screen. “The sensor does not violate people's privacy.” Shachar says. This is extremely important in the workspace.

【1】What were the sensors used to do before COVID-19?

A．To identify employees.

B．To record locations.

C．To keep track of employees.

D．To make better use of office space.

【2】What does the underlined word “modified” probably mean in Paragraph 3?

A．Introduced.

B．Adjusted.

C．Formed.

D．Boomed.

【3】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．How we can get workers back into their office

B．How we can improve the employees’ efficiency

C．Smart sensors make office social distancing easier

D．Smart sensors are a key technological innovation

27、   When it comes to the most famous 20th century painters of the United States, Grandma Moses should be mentioned, although she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself： ”I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me. " No one could have had a more active old age.

She was born on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At 12 she left home and was in domestic service until at 27 she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived； her husband died in 1927,

Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery （刺绣）pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands became too stiff（僵硬的）to sew and she still wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought all that she painted. Three of the pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930's and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures： careful and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form. "I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it,“ she said.

28、Dr.Nancy Roman, born in 1925, who was celebrated as a pioneer for female scientists and had advanced the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope, died on Dec 25, 2018.

When Nancy Roman asked for permission to take a second algebra (代数)course in high school,a teacher demanded to know “what lady would take mathematics instead of Latin”.In college, a professor admitted that he often tried to prevent women from majoring in physics but Nancy stuck to it.And after receiving Doctor’ s degree in astronomy., she found a professional home at NASA(美国宇航局)In 1959, Dr.Roman became the first chief of astronomy at NASA.headquarters, a role that made her one of the agency’s first female leaders.

Dr Roman spent much of her career helping develop, fund and promote technology that would help scientists see more clearly beyond Earths atmosphere.But her most well-known work was perhaps leading to design the Hubble Space Telescope the first major telescope to be sent into space for the purpose of gathering photographs and data from the universe.She was, therefore, named as "the mother of Hubble”.

“She made it possible to get the early telescope up into space to learn what needed to be learned,”said science historian Bob Zimmerman: and her hard-nosed nature helped get the telescope built.

The telescope did not launch until 1990, a little more than a decade after Dr Roman retired, but when it did, its photographs of the universe thrilled the world.I am glad, "she once told Science,"I ignored the people who told me that I could not be an astronomer.”

D．She had hard-nosed nature and never cared about other people’s opinions.

29、What’s brown, slimy(黏滑的) and can move through narrow passages inside the body? It’s probably not what you’re thinking!

Scientists at the Chinese University of Hong Kong have created a magnetic (有磁性的) slime robot! It can carry out tasks like fixing broken circuits (电路) and picking up objects. They also think one day it could be put inside the human body to do things like help find items that have been swallowed by accident.

Li Zhang and his workmates mixed a range of substances together to make the slime which can be controlled by an outside magnetic field. They also added a substance that coats the magnetic parts to make them non-toxic (无毒的) for use in the human body.

The team then tested how well the soft-bodied robot functions in a range of situations, including finding and surrounding a lost battery in a model stomach and moving along while holding onto a piece of wire and also getting through tiny gaps.

There are robots in existence which can successfully find and hold onto objects and others that can go through tight spaces, however there aren’t many that can do both. The robot can also heal (治愈) itself after being cut into pieces.

“You can first pull it to a great extent so it looks like a liquid. Then afterwards, you can roll it like an octopus’ arm to carry something,” Li Zhang said.

“However, before they can use the robot inside a real person’s body, the scientists will first need to come up with a way of knowing where the robot is and how it’s performing,” Pietro Valdastri from the University of Leeds said. It would also need to be tested to make sure the magnetic parts which are toxic on their own aren’t able to separate from the slime. “They need to ensure its safety through future trials, but it’s definitely a sound approach,” Valdastri added.

【1】What can be learned about the slime robot?

A．It performs tasks by itself.

B．It can repair circuit boards.

C．It is harmful to the human body.

D．It can find mistakenly-swallowed objects.

【2】How did the scientists test the robot?

A．They used it to fix a broken battery.

B．They put it into a real medical setting.

C．They checked how it recognised toxic substances.

D．They let it search for objects in a stomach model.

【3】What makes the robot different from existing robots?

A．It is small and hard.

B．It can hold onto objects gently.

C．It is able to access hard-to-reach places.

D．It can pick up items and move through tight spaces.

【4】What does Valdastri say about the robot?

A．It will need to be tracked.

B．It can behave like a liquid.

C．It should avoid non-toxic magnetic parts.

D．It can heal itself after being broken into pieces.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

"Pick up the pace!" said Amy's husband. "But I can't!" Amy said, her heart beating quickly inside. "I can't go any faster! Her husband encouraged her. "Yes, you can! You're making progress every day.”

To help Amy stay healthy, her husband had been running with her for over two years. Several years ago, Amy could barely walk down the stairs of her apartment building due to fatness caused by eating disorders. She realized the problem after a failed job interview and began walking to improve her ability to move. At first, she could walk for only 15 minutes at a time. But she pushed herself every day, walking 5 minutes longer than she did the day before until she walked for an hour and eventually two. For three years, Amy kept her walking habit, slowly and painstakingly building her body shape. Then she changed her walking shoes to running shoes about two years ago and became an excellent runner.

In March 2001, an advertisement invited people to nominate（提名）an ordinary person who inspired them to bring the Olympic flame to Salt Lake City as torch bearers（火炬手）or support runners.（Support runners serve as “guardians of the flame" and run with torch bearers along the journey.）Amy's experiences touched her husband, so he nominated her to be a torch bearer. The possibility to be selected was low, but Amy wanted to try.

Running taught Amy the importance of training for a race. She pictured herself running a race and crossing the finish line. For months, she ran through her neighborhood carrying a broken-off broom handle, feeling the weight of the torch. She waved at her neighbors, pretending they were cheering crowds. She also printed a picture of a torch bearer wearing the white uniform, replaced the face with a picture of hers, and put it onto her refrigerator door.

Every day, Amy imagined herself as a torch bearer. She was training for a historic running event. On September 26th, while on her daily run through her neighborhood, an express package arrived.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1:

       Amy opened it and found a letter and a book on the Olympics.
