You
10、should take a chance, be brave, and act firmly. “Go for it!” gets name from football. Not football as it is played in most countries such as England, Egypt or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada. One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has fail
11、ed, after three attempts, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a critical(批评的) decision. The conservative choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary(临时的) defeat in order to gain a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is
12、 to try a fourth and final time to gain the remaining yards needed. In the nineteen eighties, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely. There is no guarantee that the action you “Go for it!” will succeed. But that is the chance you take when
13、you decide to go for it. You put your fears behind. You choose courage over safety. You hold your breath and go for it.21. The expression “Go for it!” comes from_.A. English football B.

15、t moment.D. We have to make a choice between success and failure.BOn March 17, people around the world celebrate the Irish holiday of Saint Patricks Day. It is a major holiday in Ireland, but the rest of the world has influenced its celebration as much as the Irish themselves.Most Americans think of
16、 Saint Patricks Day as a big party centered around drinking alcohol. But its beginnings in Ireland were religious, says Mike Cronin, a professor of Irish history with Boston College of Massachusetts.Ireland is a mostly Roman Catholic country. Saint Patrick lived in Ireland more than 2,000 years ago.
17、 He is widely considered to have established Christianity in the country. The Church honored him with a holy day in the 17th century. March 17 marks the date of his death. The average Irish person honored March 17 quietly. Attending church services was the main activity. In fact, most businesses tha
18、t served alcohol would close in honor of the day.In the early 1900s, Irelands government made St. Patricks Day an official holiday. By the 1960s, towns across Ireland started celebrating the holiday with parades and music. In Ireland today, St. Patricks Day is a four-day public celebration that incl
19、udes parades, music, food, and games.For Irish people living outside Ireland, Saint Patricks Day became a chance to celebrate their Irish identity and culture. Now, countries and cities around the world celebrate March 17 in creative ways. Many countries hold Saint Patricks Day parades. Famous monum
20、ents, including the Great Wall of China, the Niagara Falls, and the Gateway of India in Mumbai will all be colored by green light for the day. Cronin says that the worldwide popularity of Saint Patricks Day has helped the Irish government, which uses the holiday as a form of diplomacy. And for a sma
21、ll island of 4.5 to 5 million people its quite remarkable that they have that kind of soft power.21. How did average Irish people celebrate Saint Patricks Day in the 17th century?A.

24、Saint Patricks Day?A. Unclear. B. Neutral. C. Negative. D. Positive. C Kayla Coehoorn sweeps(打扫) the floor in her familys cow barn(畜棚). She spreads feed. Soon shell cut the grass. One thing she wont do is milk cows. Kayla manages the familys cow herd, which until last year meant getting up at 5 for
25、milking, then milking again in the evening. Not anymore. Last year the family built a new barn equipped with a pair of robotic milking machines. The machines milk cows around the clock, without Kayla in attendance. Kayla, feeling so relieved, loves it and so do the cows. Robotic milking was first de
26、veloped in Europe and only recently began to catch on in the US. About 5% of American cow farms have begun to use robots. But the machines are growing in popularity, especially on smaller farms. The robots solve a big problem. As older farmers retire, young people are unwilling to fill their shoes.
27、Robotic milking is encouraging them to take another look. It not only makes the work easier but also gives them the flexibility(灵活性) to get up later or take a day off, or attend a soccer game. It allows more time for other things. Cows come two or three times a day to a robot, attracted by the promi
28、se of food. As each one steps up, a steel arm swiftly washes its udder(乳房) and applies four milking cups. Computers not only control the robots but also collect detailed information about each cow. On traditional farms, the farmer pushes the old milking machines and attaches the machines by hand. Ho
29、wever, robots wont save all farms. Low milk prices have got many cow farmers deep in debt and worsened the financial(财政的) uncertainty that also helps drive them out of business. Over the past few years, the US has lost nearly 17,000 cow farms. So robots arent a panacea(万能药). Still, experts say robot
30、ics can offer new possibilities to families facing hard decisions about the future. “Especially in places with a history of smaller farms, this will help keep that way of life,” says one expert.28. Whats the main idea of the first paragraph? A. An example of cow farmers daily life in the US. B. Kayl

32、 about high technology.D. They could have their farm life improved.30. According to the text, milking tech with the use of robots_. A. still needs the work of human hands.B. could also check the cows condition. C. is widely used on large cow farms. D. has no requirement for location and time.第二节(共5个
