Fr a lng time, humans have used technlgy (科技) t study the wrld arund us, and Mars is the latest place we’re using machines t explre. Besides the earth, the “red planet” is seen, as the ne place in ur slar system mst likely t have life.
Early last mnth, the first American rbt, Spirit, landed n Mars withut any prblem. Opprtunity, the secnd rbt, landed n the planet mre than a week ag. Scientists are very excited abut these machines’ safe landing n Mars. It means that nw we have an excellent chance t lk fr water and ther signs f life. S far, the rbts have fund sme stnes that culd shw Mars was nce a wet and warm planet.
But the trips made by Spirit and Opprtunity were dangerus. Mars is ften called the “death planet”, because in the past its envirnment has been unfriendly t the rbt explrers. Befre Spirit and Opprtunity, nearly frty spaceships had been sent t Mars since the 1960s. Tw-thirds f them failed. The first spaceship, Krabl, sent in 1962 by Russia was amng them.

In the 1920s and 30s the airlines were just beginning. It was unusual fr peple t travel by air because it was expensive and dangerus. In thse days, there were n flight attendants t lk after the passengers. Yung men ,r “stewards” helped the passengers nt the airplane and carried the passengers’ luggage(行李)but they did nt prvide fd and drinks. But then in 1930,a wman called Ellen Church invented the “stewardess”.
Ellen Church was brn in 1904 n a farm in Iwa. She was a different child. She didn’t want t wrk n a farm r marry a farmer —she wanted a mre adventurus(冒险的)life. Ellen studied t be a nurse at the University f Minnesta and then gt a jb in a hspital. Fr the next few years she stayed at the hspital but als tk flying lessns and gt her pilt’s license.
Ellen was twenty-five years ld when she first gt in tuch with Being Air Transprt. She lved flying but she understd that airlines were a man’s wrld. Althugh wmen like Emelia Earheart were becming famus, she realized it was impssible fr a wman t have a career as a pilt .But she had anther idea. Mst peple were frightened f flying because. flying was still an unreliable(不可靠的) way t travel. There were ften delays(延误),many crashes and the bad weathers made many passengers sick. Ellen thught nurses culd take care f passengers during flights and agreed.
The yung wman frm Iwa and seven ther nurses became the first air stewardesses.
At first pilts were unhappy because they did nt want stewardesses n airplanes, but passengers lved the stewardesses. In 1940 there were arund 1000 f them wrking fr different airlines. The early “stewardesses” had t be under twenty-five-year-ld, single and slim. When a wman jined an airline, she had t prmise nt t get married r have children. It was hard jb and nt well paid. They wrked lng hurs and earned ＄1 an hur.
In the 1970s, stewardesses were unhappy in their jb and airlines had t make sme changes. Since the 1970s, “stewardesses” have been called flight attendants. They are well paid and wrk fewer hurs than in the past.
（ ）12. The last sentence f the first paragraph suggests that _________.
A. the wrd “stewardess” was made up by Ellen Church
B. Ellen Church was the first wman wh flew a plane
C. Ellen Church was the first wman wh wrked n a plane
D. Ellen Church was the first wman passenger n a plane
（ ） 13. Frm the secnd paragraph, we learn that ________.
A. Ellen did nt behave in the same way as mst ther girls
B. Ellen’s family was nt rich enugh t supprt her educatin
C. Ellen was fnd f wrking as a nurse in the hspital
D. Ellen has an unhappy childhd that changed her cmpletely
（ ）14.The main reasn fr Being Air Transprt ffering Ellen the jb was ________.
A. her flying experience B. her university educatin
C. her nursing experience D. her life attitudes

Rbt revlutin
The day that a rbt wakes yu up, cleans yur rm and walks yur dg might still be a few decades （十年）ff. But increasingly, engineers are saying that rbts are ging t make the leap frm the factry flr t yur family rm.
Cmpanies like Sny and General Electric are wrking n designs fr small rbts. Prducts like the Rmba, a rbt that can clean flrs, are flying ff the shelves. On the cver f a recent issue f Scientific American magazine, Bill Gates predicted the “Dawn f the Age f Rbts”.
What’s behind this new era (时代)? It’s partly a matter f technlgy. Devices that can recgnize and respnd t a human vice have been develped. There are nw a few different ways fr rbts t mve arund. They can walk, crawl r ride n wheels. They are being made smaller and smaller. They are als becming mre and mre energy efficient.
A bigger part f the stry is n the demand side. Frm the day Rbert Adler invented the televisin remte cntrl in the 1950s, peple arund the wrld have tirelessly searched fr ways t get lazier.
Als take int cnsideratin the increasing wealth f rich peple, the time appears ripe t intrduce rbts t ease ur daily lives.
T be sure, rbts that walk n tw legs and talk like peple are still t cmplex fr ur present engineering abilities. Tday’s rbt revlutin is t make them fr everyday use. Rbts will d basic husewrk such as cleaning r gardening, r just help yu have mre fun n the basketball curt.
What makes a rbt different frm an rdinary cleaning machine is nt the presence f cmputer chips (芯片). Nwadays even yur micrwave has a cmputer chip. It is the ability t sense and make changes t the envirnment in real time.
Fr example, a flr-cleaning rbt shuld be able t sense yur scared cat and mve ut f the way. Tday’s cmputing ability is, fr the first time, able t make machines that culd “think”, at least in certain limited ways.
