In the future your automobile will run on water instead of gas! You will be able to buy a supercomputer that fits in your pocket! You might even drive a flying car!

Not all past predictions have been proven wrong. A few of them have been surprisingly accurate. Some great thinkers had predicted the arrival of the credit card, the fax machine and even the Internet—years before they were invented. But for each prediction that has come true, some others have missed by a mile. Many of these predictions didnt consider how people would want to use the technology, or whether people really needed it in their lives or not. Lets look at some predictions from the not-too-distant past.

Robot Helpers

Wheres the robot in my kitchen? Nowhere, of course. And hes probably not coming any time soon. Robots do exist today, but mostly in factories and other working environments.

Back in the 1950s, however, people said that by now personal robots would be in most peoples homes.

So why hasnt that happened? Maybe because robots are still too expensive and clumsy (笨拙的). And probably the idea of robots cooking our dinners and washing our clothes is just too strange. At home we seem to be doing fine without them.

Telephones of Tomorrow

In 1964 an American company introduced the video telephone. They said by the year 2000 most people would have a video phone in their homes. But of course the idea hasnt caught on yet.

Why? The technology worked fine, but it overlooked something obvious: people long for privacy (隱私). Would you want to have a video phone conversation when someone after you just stepped out of the shower?

Probably not—it could be uncomfortable! Just because technology doesnt always mean that people will want to use it.

Flying Car

And finally, how about that crazy prediction of the flying car? Its not so crazy any more! But a flying car remains one of the most wonderful technology ideas to catch our imagination. Keep watching the news—or perhaps the sky outside your window—to see what the future will bring.

51. Whats the passage mainly about?

A. New technology introduction. B. Predictions that havent come true.

C. Predictions that can catch our imagination. D. New technology that can change our lifestyle.

52. Why Robot Helpers havent been used in most peoples homes?

A. Robot Helpers havent been developed yet.

B. Robot Helpers wont bring people practical use.

C. People find it difficult to control Robot Helpers.

D. Using Robot Helpers at home is simply a waste of time and money.

53. We can learn from Telephones of Tomorrow that ＿＿＿＿ .

A. the video telephone is on the way out B. using the video telephone is uncomfortable

C. people dont want to let out their privacy D. the technology of the video telephone doesnt work well

54. How does the writer find the flying car?

A. It is too difficult to imagine. B. It is too crazy an idea to realize.

C. It is likely to appear in the future. D. It has been the focus of the news.

55. In the second paragraph the underlined word “accurate” can be replaced by “＿＿＿＿”.

A. true B. practical C. wrong D. smart

第一節(jié) 閱讀表達(dá)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）

閱讀下面短文，并按照題目要求用英語回答問題。

I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone.

Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Bens beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her backyard.

Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didnt know what was about to take place.

By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five oclock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty (收成) of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!

Well, the point wasnt so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one anothers company. None of it would have happened if it had not been for Happy and Bens garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
