8.As more and more animal species began to disappear from Kandal province,the Cambodian man Suy Senglim grew worried.So he created a photo project hoping to bring more attention to the loss of natural habitat in Cambodia.He records the common name of each creature,its scientific name and identifying qualities,whether or not the species is endangered and hopes to educate Cambodians about the importance of wildlife protection.
"The biggest issue is damage to habitat and hunting.Besides that,it is due to demand from the rich who desire wild meat and who consider wild meat chemical-free,"he said.
"Hunting is at the root of Cambodian culture,"he said.But he notes that centuries ago,there were more animals and fewer people.Educating Cambodians about the need for saving natural resources is very important to Suy Senglim.
Chhit Sam Ath is executive director of the World Wildlife Fund,or WWF office in Cambodia.He said land sales and development are partly responsible for a sharp drop in the number of trees.It is estimated that protected areas within forests have disappeared at the same rate as forests in other parts of the country.Between 2001 and 2014,the yearly rate of forest loss in Cambodia was the highest in the world,the group said.The rate increased 14.4 percent during that period.Flora and Fauna International noted almost 60 percent of the country was forested in 2009.But it fell to 48 percent by 2014.
Suy Senglim is now working on a book on 100bird species from among the 400species he has photographed.He hopes to publish the book in early 2018.He says he looks forward to teaching in high schools and colleges to influence a new generation of nature-lovers.

24.How does Suy Senglim feel about the wildlife in Cambodia?C
A.Disappointed.
B.Optimistic.
C.Concerned.
D.Annoyed.
25.What did Suy Senglim do?B
A.He has taken pictures of about 100 bird species in all.
B.He made a careful investigation of the wildlife in Cambodia.
C.He is now working in colleges to educate young people.
D.He works at the WWF office to help protect wildlife.
26.What is true about Cambodia?C
A.Local people are good at hunting.
B.Forest coverage rate fell by 14.4 percent from 2001 to 2014.
C.Rich people have a special interest in wild meat.
D.Many Cambodians have realized the importance of wildlife protection.
27.Where does this text probably come from?D
A.A news report.
B.A science fiction.
C.A medical journal.
D.An agricultural magazine.

16.Dr.Caroline Lyon,Professor Chrystopher Nehaniv and Dr.Joe Saunders have carried out experiments as part of the iTalk project with the childlike iCub humanoid robot to show how language learning sppears.Initially the robot can only babble(speak like a baby)and takes speech as a string of sounds,not divided up into words.After having a few minutes of"conversation"with humans,in which the participants were instructed to speak to the robot as if it were a small child,the robot adapted its output to the most frequently heard units of pronunciation to produce some word forms such as the names of simple shapes and colors.
    Dr.Caroline Lyon said:"It is known that little babies are sensitive to the frequency of sounds in speech,and these experiments show how this sensitivity can be modeled and contribute to the learning or word forms by a robot."
    The iTalk project teachers the robot of speak using methods similar to those used to teach children and is a key part in the learning process of the human-robot interaction.Although the iCub robot is learning to produce word forms,it does not know their meaning,and learning meaning is another part of the iTalk project's research.These scientific and technological advances could have a significant effect on the future generation of interactive robotic systems.

32.What's the first paragraph mainly about?D
A.Three scientists.
B.The iCub robot
C.Talks between the robot and humans    
D.A scientific experiment.
33.We can infer that this childlike robot canA.
A.hardly speak complete sentences    
B.speak fluently like a human
C.teach a baby to speak             
D.be taught by its robot fellow
34.Which of the following can indicate Dr.Caroline Lyon's remarks?C
A.The experiments are leaned by a robot
B.Babies are more sensitive to the sounds in speech than the robot
C.The approach of teaching kids can be adopted to teach the robot.
D.The robot can teach itself like a baby.
35.In the last paragraph,we can learn thatD.
A.the iCub robot has a good understanding of words
B.the experiments are entirely complete
C.the main section of the iTalk project lies in robotic systems
D.the iTalk project's research is at the basic stage.

13.After a terrible electrical accident,which caused him to become both blind and deaf,the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years.The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life.His family,especially his wife,did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.
One hot summer afternoon,he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once.He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet,but he was struck by the lightning.Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree.He was trembling badly,but when he opened his eyes,he could hardly believe what he saw:a plough and a wall.When Mrs Edwards came running up to him,shouting to their neighbors to call for help,he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.
The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread,and many doctors came to examine him.Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning.However,none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened.The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that,since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock,perhaps,the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.

41.The reason for Robert's attempts to kill himself was thatA.
A.he had to live in a dark and silent world
B.a(chǎn) terrible traffic accident happened to him
C.he was struck by the lightning once more
D.nobody in the world cared about him
42.What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?C
A.Taking a walk with a stick.
B.Driving a car.
C.Sheltering from the rain under a tree.
D.Lying on the ground.
43.What did Robert see first when he regained his sight after the shock?A
A.A plough and a wall.
B.His neighbors.
C.His wife who called for help to save him.
D.Many doctors surrounding him.
44.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?B
A.Robert had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years.
B.Robert hid himself under the tree for 20 minutes.
C.Robert could hear his wife's shouting for help when he woke up.
D.The family's love helped Robert regain confidence to live.
45.We can infer from the text thatD.
A.many doctors came because Robert was badly injured
B.a(chǎn) sudden injury in the head led to Robert's recovery
C.Robert's wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock
D.there was no accurate explanation for Robert's recovery.
