"Now we' re more than halfway; only two miles away from the tavern, "said the driver.
"I' m glad of that ! "answered the stranger, in a sympathetic mood. He wanted to say more but the east wind blew clear down a man' s throat if he tried to speak. The girl' s voice was something quite charming, however, and at present he spoke again.
"You don' t feel the cold so much at 20 below zero out in the Western Country. There' s none of this damp chill, " he said, and then it seemed as though he had blamed the uncomplaining young driver. She had not even said that it was an awful day, and he began to be conscious of a warm hopefulness of spirit, and sense of pleasant adventure under all the woollen shawls.
"You' ll have a cold drive going back, " he said in earnest, and put up his hand for the thirtieth time to see if his coat-collar were as colse to the back of his neck as possible. He had wished a dozen times for the warm old hunting rig in which he had many a day confronted the worst of
weather in the Northwest.
"I shall not have to go back!" exclaimed the girl, with eager pleasantness. "I' m on my way home now. I drove over early just to meet you at the train. We had word that someone was coming to the tavern. "
How far was the drive from the train to the tavern？
A．One mile.
B．Two miles.
C．A little over four miles.
D．Less than four miles.

The eagle-eyed Cindy follows in the path of other breakthrough toys like Sony's barking Robot Aibo, which was the first to popularize voice command in the late 1990s. Cindy goes one step further; she not only follows instructions but also recognizes shapes, colors, and words -- and remembers. The effect is a doll that appears to be learning.
The toy company which produced Cindy Smart spent ten years trying to see how much human nature it could breathe into an inanimate object. Its engineers began researching basic and 'affordable artificial intelligence (人工智能), creating minibots that sense light, sounds, and pressure, However, without the sense of sight, their toys seemed to be lacking one of the keenest (敏锐的) abilities that life forms use to react to their environment.
So how do the engineers make a doll actually see？ In Cindy's case, it's a multi-step process. When presented a text like "I love you" and asked" Can you' read this？" Cindy takes it as one of 70 preprogrammed commands. Then the inbuilt camera scans(扫描) a 15-degree radius (半径) in search of number or letter-shaped objects. Buried in her stomach, Cindy's 16-bit microprocessor compares the text with her database of 700 words. If it's a match, "I love you, "she utters.
This text most likely appears in a ______.
A．medical report
B．language dictionary
C．science journal
D．music magazine

Pearman put his head close to the window. "Come on, mister. Give me a chance. I need a job," he said. Something in Stephen Pearman's voice moved Robert Fred. In the seconds before traffic started moving again, Fred handed, Pearman a business card and told him to call if he was serious.
"My friends told me he was just pulling my leg," said Pearman. "But I said, ' No, he's a businessman. I need to give it a shot.'"
Two days later, 29-year-old Pearman appeared in the manager's office of the big hotel. Fred gave him a job and housing and lent him pocket money while training him.
Today, Pearman works full-time setting up the hotel's dining halls for business meetings. In the past two years, he has found a flat, married and repaid Fred's loans.
"Mr. Fred gave me a second chance," says Pearman, "and I took advantage of it. I could have just come here a while, eaten up and left. But there is no future in washing windshields."
Ordinarily, Fred keeps away from the street People. "But Pearman seemed so honest and open, asking for a chance rather than just money," Fred says: "I don't hand my business card to just any- body. But I'm. glad I did in this case."

Dad, Why Did You Do It？
Every time the phone rings in my fiat I jump, especially if it's near midnight. Deep down I know it's only Mum, ringing for a chat because, yet again, she can't sleep. But for a fraction of a second I freeze.
It was midnight when the call came that changed the way I felt about the person I loved most —my dad.
I'd watch his friends playing around with young girls and then look at Dad. "Ridiculous," he'd say, and I'd smile, knowing he could never behave that way.
Last October, as if to prove the point, he whisked Mum away for a romantic weekend in Rome to celebrate their silver wedding anniversary. She was so happy.
I didn't think any couple could be closer and I always dreamed that when I got married it would be the same for me — secure and caring.
Dad always wanted the best for me and he made sure I got it. Thanks to his Army career and pension we were financially better off than most. But he always pushed me to achieve things for myself and not be too dependent on him and Mum.
I loved him for that, but when he packed me off to America for a year to "find myself" I didn't want to go.
Hugging me at the airport, Dad wiped away my tears. "It'll be character building, Emma," he said, adding : "Anyway, if you don't like it after a few months you can come back. But trust me Princess, you'll love it. "
He was right. I loved the States, and living there built up my confidence.
Still, I missed Dad like mad. I remember sitting in a coffee bar in Chicago and hiding behind the menu as tears poured down my face.
I was frightened, alone and I knew Dad wasn't there to put his arms around me and reassure me. I rushed out to a phone booth to call him. As soon as I heard his sleepy voice I felt okay.
Then, when I got home 12 months later, nothing much had changed... I thought.
Mum was as madly in love with Dad as she'd been since the day he'd first kissed her in the school playground; and Dad seemed to feel the same—on the outside.
Except he'd finally left the Army and was now an area manager for a car manufacturer. Mum was over the moon—it meant he no longer had to travel all over the country and spend months away from home.
Dad was excited about his new job, and when he started working late neither Mum nor I thought anything of it. He told us it was a new project, and so confidential he wasn't allowed to tell us much about it. I believed he was at work, tucked away in his office — until I got that unforgettable midnight call.
The woman's voice was hesitant but panicky. She asked if I was George's daughter. I didn't realize who she was until she told me Dad was with her — at midnight.
She said she hadn't wanted to ring, that she'd never wanted me to find out about her, but she had no choice. Someone had to know that Dad was on his way to hospital. "He's had a heart attack," she said, her voice trembling.
As I paced up and down the hospital corridor, this strange woman explained that she'd been with my father when he'd collapsed. The thought of them together made me feel ill. While I rushed to the toilet to splash water on my face, I heard a cry. It was her.
As soon as I saw the doctor taking off his mask and laying a hand on her shoulder, I knew Dad had gone.
I couldn't make myself go and look at him. I would've seen a stranger lying there.
The man who for 24 years had told me never to lie, to be true to myself and always to treasure family values above all else, had slipped away from my lift for ever.
Only then did I discover this woman worked for the company. She was Dad's so-called "confidential project".
An hour or so later I broke the news to Mum. I said Dad had suffered a hea
A．Emma was afraid to answer her mother's phone call at midnight.
B．Emma would haste for a while before answering her mother's phone.
C．Emma was very glad to answer her mother's phone.
D．Emma could not fall asleep at midnight.

听力原文： When I was in the 7th grade, I volunteered about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer at a local hospital in my town.Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze of my hand—Mr. Gillespie was in a deep unconscious state.
I left for a week on vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didn't have the nerve to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died.
Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him whether his name was Mr. Gillespie, and whether he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking to him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.
He began to tell me how, as he lay there unconscious, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, not a person, who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him alive. Then he told me about his life. We both cried for a while and exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways.
Although I haven't seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. More importantly, he has made a tremendous difference in my life. I will never forget him and what he did for me: He made me an angel.

A．He gave her a camera.
B．He occasionally gave her hand a squeeze.

D．His eyes welled up with tears.
