24、A new officer with the Huntington Park Police patrols local parks 24 hours a day seven days a week. He doesn't need rest, coffee breaks, a salary or medical insurance, and that is because it is a Robocop.

The main function of the Robocop is to scan and film the surroundings. Besides cameras with night vision that report 360 degrees, it also has a distress button which is located here, so if somebody is to need assistance or they want to contact the communication center, they can do it by way of that distress button. There are people that are monitoring on the other end.

This newest police employee is self-charging. It’s easy to program it and make changes to the software if necessary. Its maintenance costs are roughly 75 thousand dollars a year. It travels the entire park. It is a programmed path, but the police are able to change the path and adapt it.

The Robocop can record the license plates of passing cars and check them against an online database of stolen cars. It can also help locate a lost iPhone because it is able to determine a Smartphone’s MAC address. The police can see from the robot if something wrong happens and then come and figure it out.

The Robocop can't replace its human handlers. The whole goal is to give police more time to do things machines can't do. The police have been having some concerns about safety of the parks and want an extra set of eyes that will help patrol a 24/7. Robocop's creators believe this model known as K5 is best used for providing security at public places like hospitals, parking lots, parks and airports. So far, it seems to be working out just fine.

【1】What is the distress button used to do?

A．Locate the Robocop.

B．Serve as an alarm device.

C．Communicate with visitors.

D．Monitor the neighborhood.

【2】Why does the Robocop record the license plates of passing cars?

A．To direct traffic.

B．To build a database.

C．To prevent accidents.

D．To find lost cars.

【3】What can we infer about the Robocop in the last paragraph?

A．It has limitation in use.

B．It has been widely used.

C．Its creators need more support.

D．Its security is still under test.

【4】If we put the passage into two parts, which of the following is the best?

(①=Para. 1 ②= Para. 2 ③= Para. 3 ④= Para. 4 ⑤= Para. 5 )

A．①②③;④⑤

B．①②;③④⑤

C．①②③④;⑤

D．①;②③④⑤

26、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。

Sam worked as a gardener and was trying to raise money for his sick mother. One day, his mother called him and he just assured her on the phone that he was going to get the money for her medicine, and that everything would be all right. Then as he returned his phone to his pocket, he discovered that Mr. Smith’s daughter, Jane, was standing right behind him. She was 12 years old and surprisingly kind.

“Hey, Sam, do you need money for something?” Jane asked him. Sam nodded.“Yes, my mom is sick. But this job in your garden is totally going to help us and your garden is going to be the prettiest in the neighborhood.” Jane nodded with pursed lips (噘嘴) and started to talk about gardening.

The following day, Sam arrived at the garden and was met by a red-faced Mr. Smith, whose expression was full of anger. “You! You tricked my daughter into asking me for money! How dare you, you worthless man!” he yelled at Sam.

Sam raised his hands to defend himself. “No, sir. I never did that. I swear! I would never do that!” But Mr. Smith didn’t want to hear it. He shook his head, pointed his finger at Sam, and said, “I want you to finish today’s work because you left a horrible messy patch (小块) of dirt on the side of the house. It is so dirty. But it’s your last day here! Do you understand?”

Sam could only nod in shock, and Mr. Smith walked away, still angry at him. Sam felt so sad that he had just lost one of the best-paying jobs he had ever got. He hadn’t completed half of the project, and now he wouldn’t get enough for his mother’s treatment.

He wished Jane had never said anything, but she was a sweet young girl who only wanted to help. It wasn’t her fault. He walked to the house and inspected that patch of dirt, which looked new as if someone had worked on it the night before.

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。

“Who put the dirt here? Is there anything special under the dirt?” he wondered.

Jane said, “These things are worth a lot of money and they are all for you, Sam.”
