3．Weeds （野草） compete for soil nutrients，water，space，and sunlight with the crops farmers grow to help feed people.Now a third-generation weeding robot，armed with lasers （激光） and powered by AI，offers a labor-saving （節(jié)省勞力的） device -while also avoiding the need for chemical herbicides （除草劑）.
The Autonomous Weeder by Carbon Robotics can clear 100，000 weeds per hour，and clear 15-20 acres in a single day - numbers that require a person working an entire season to match.
Moving along a row of crops，a battery of twelve cameras scans the ground，identifying weeds through machine-learning and killing them with a CO2 laser.The robot's onboard supercomputer ensures high accuracy with its laser so as to avoid accidentally cutting crops.
"This is one of the most innovative and valuable technologies that I've seen as a farmer，" said James Johnson of Carzalia Farm in a statement，who has used Carbon Robotics' technology on his farm. "I expect the robots to go mainstream because of how effectively they address some of farming's most critical issues，including the overuse of chemicals，process efficiency，and labor.The sky's the limit."
If a farmer wants to avoid using chemical herbicides，which have flooded nearly every corner of our food and water supply chains with a probable carcinogen （致癌物），they must find enough unskilled workers to pull weeds manually- a difficult task in the already short market of agricultural labor.
Since it can solve both problems，it's no surprise that the 2021 model of the Autonomous Weeder has already sold out，even considering it is priced at "hundreds of thousands of dollars."
To make the device more accessible，rent options are available from the company，as they have already made the 2022 models available for preorder.
The weeding method of the robot is organic and in line with sustainable farming practices.Cost-effective weed control is the biggest difficulty of organic farming，and agriculturalists looking to make the change finally have an option to help them get their vegetables out to people.
（1）What can be learned about the third-generation weeding robot？
A．It is CO2-driven.
B．It damages crops by accident.
C．It functions with the help of lasers.
D．It is used to pour chemical herbicides.
（2）What is James Johnson's attitude to the weeding robot？
A．Favorable.
B．Curious.
C．Doubtful.
D．Critical.
（3）Why is the 2021 model of the weeding robot so popular？
A．It can work in different fields.
B．It can increase food production.
C．It is priced low and easy to operate.
D．It is labor-saving and protects human health.
（4）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？
A．Organic vegetables enjoy a wide market.
B．The new weeding method is accessible to farmers.
C．The weeding robot helps realize organic farming.
D．Cost control is the biggest problem of organic farming.組卷：6引用：2難度：0.5 -
4．Researchers at CU Boulder have developed a wearable device that changes the human body into a biological battery.The device is stretchy（彈性的） enough that you can wear it like a ring，sport band or any other thing that touches your skin.It also taps into a person's natural heat-employing thermoelectric generators to change the body's internal temperature into electricity. "In the future，we want to be able to power your wearable electronics without having to include a battery，" said Jianliang Xiao，an associate professor at CU Boulder.
The concept may sound like something out of The Matrix film series，in which a race of robots have enslaved humans to harvest their precious organic energy.Xiao and his colleagues aren't that ambitious：Their devices can generate about 1 volt （伏特） of energy for every square centimeter of skin space-less volt per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers.
Scientists have previously experimented with similar wearable devices，but Xiao's is stretchy，can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable-making it a cleaner alternative to traditional electronics. "Whenever you use a battery，you're depleting（消耗） that battery and will，eventually，need to replace it，" Xiao said. "The nice thing about our device is that you can wear it，and it provides you with constant power."
Just pretend that you're out for a jog.As you exercise，your body heats up，and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you.Xiao's device captures that flow of energy rather than let it go to waste. "The thermoelectric generators are in close contact with the human body，and they can use the heat that would normally be sent into the environment，" Xiao said.
（1）What does Xiao expect of his device at present？
A．It will be used for medical purposes.
B．It will be made smaller and wearable.
C．It will change natural power into electricity.
D．It will supply constant power to wearable devices.
（2）Why does the author mention The Matrix series in the text？
A．To give an explanation.
B．To make a comparison.
C．To introduce a topic.
D．To analyze the cause.
（3）What does the third paragraph mainly talk about？
A．The strengths of Xiao's device.
B．The convenience of using a battery.
C．The replacement of wearable devices.
D．The development of traditional electronics.
（4）What do we know about Xiao's device from the text？
A．It operates with plenty of power.
B．It benefits people's health in a way.
C．It is designed for practical use.
D．It's based on traditional electronics.組卷：10引用：4難度：0.5

5．How to Start a Conversation with Strangers Introduce Yourself
It's not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself.Simply focus on being genuine and sincere.When you approach the other person to start the conversation，give him a warm smile and clearly state your name. （1）.Remember to speak at a regular pace，taking care not to speak too quickly or slowly，so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.
Begin the Conversation

Continue the Conversation
If you are building a rapport（關(guān)系），feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation.（3）.Openended questions - those that can't be answered by a simple "yes" or "no" - help to keep a conversation going.
