Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.
Robot teachers if you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and
teachers at the top of the list. It’s easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need
human connection and creativity. But are we underestimating what robots can do? In some cases, they already
perform better than doctors at diagnosing illness. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing
personal information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after all?
British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of
the classroom: 2027. He predicts robots will do the main job of transferring information and teachers will be
like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students’ faces, movements and maybe even brain signals. Then
they will adapt the information to each student. It’s not a popular opinion, and it’s unlikely robots will ever
have empathy and the ability to really connect with humans like another human can.
One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world,
there aren’t enough teachers and 9–16 per cent of children under the age of 14 don’t go to school. That problem
could be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and won’t get stressed, or tired, or move
somewhere for an easier, higher-paid job.
 Those negative aspects of teaching are something everyone agrees on. Teachers all over the world are
leaving because it is a difficult job and they feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not ‘Will robots replace
teachers?’ but ‘How can robots help teachers?’ Office workers can use software to do things like organise and
answer emails, arrange meetings and update calendars. Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work,
including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking
homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do
best.
Question 31: What is the passage mainly about?
A. What robot teachers are like C. The importance of robots in the classrooms
B. Whether robots can work in schools D. The negative aspects of a robot teacher
Question 32: According to the passage, all of the following are mentioned as advantages of robot teachers
EXCEPT__________.
A. unpressured B. unexhausted C. always ready to work in anywhere D. higher-paid
Question 33: The word ''they'' in paragraph 2 refers to__________.
A. brain signals B. robots C. teachers D. students
Question 34: According to the passage, some parts of the world__________.
A. pay robots to teach. B. already use robots in teaching jobs.
C. have a shortage of teachers. D. use robots to reduce teachers’ marking time.
Question 35: The word ''diagnosing '' in paragraph 1 mostly means__________.
A. identifying B. discovering C. producing D. inventing
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Early mariners gradually developed ways of observing and recording in their journals their position, the
distances and directions they traveled, the currents of wind and water, and the hazards and havens they
encountered. The information in these journals enabled them to find their way home and, for them or their
successors, to repeat and extend the recorded voyages. Each new observation could be added to an ever
increasing body of reliable information.
Ship captains and navigators were not concerned about running into other vessels, but as heavy traffic
developed along shipping routes, avoiding such collisions became a serious matter. In all fields of navigation,
keeping a safe distance between ships moving in different directions at different speeds became as important
as knowing how to reach one’s destination.
The larger the ship, the easier it is to see, but the larger a ship, the more time it requires to change its
speed or direction. When many ships are in a small area, an action taken by one ship to avoid colliding with
another might endanger a third. In busy seaports, such as Hamburg and New York, this problem has been
solved by assigning incoming and outgoing ships to separate lanes which are clearly marked and divided by
the greatest practical distance.
The speed of jet airplanes makes collision a deadly possibility. Even if two pilots see one another in
time to begin evasive action, their maneuvers may be useless if either pilot incorrectly predicts the other’s
move. Ground-based air traffic controllers assign aircraft to flight paths that keep airplanes a safe distance
from one another.
When steam engines began to replace sails during the first half of the nineteenth century, a ship’s
navigator had to compute fuel consumption as well as course and location. Today, in airplanes as well as in
ships, large amounts of fuel, needed for long trips, reduce the cargo capacity, and economy requires that its
consumption be kept to a minimum. In modern air and sea navigation, a schedule has to be met. A single
voyage or flight is only one link in a complicated and coordinated transportation network that carries goods
and people from any starting place to any chosen destination. Modern navigation selects a ship’s course,
avoids collision with other moving ships, minimizes fuel consumption, and follows an established timetable.

A. The port controllers guide ship captains by radio.
B. Incoming and outgoing ships are assigned to clearly marked lanes.
C. Ships are not allowed to change their course or their speed while in port.
D. Captains use their journals to determine the hazards in port.
Question 41: What can be inferred about fuel consumption in the nineteenth century?
A. A ship’s captain had to decide how many sails would be used on a ship.
B. A navigator had to determine how much fuel a ship needed for a voyage.
C. A large amount of fuel made room for extra cargo space.
