adj.成熟的；時機成熟的發(fā)布：2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷：0引用：2難度：0.9964．Sydney's recorded history began with the arrival of the First Fleet and its English criminals and soldiers on January 26，1788.Transportation of criminals to Sydney did not stop until 1840 and shortly afterwards，in 1842，Sydney was declared a city.The population grew rapidly during this period，helped by the discovery of gold and the gold rush of 1850.
Sydney suffered little during WWII.After the war，European immigrants flooded into the city，and Sydney spread rapidly westwards.It also picked up one of its most famous landmarks in 1957.The architect Jorn Utzon won a competition to design the Sydney Opera House.Two years later，the construction work was officially launched.However，in 1966，before the completion of the Opera House，Utzon resigned in frustration.Another architectural team took over，and the Opera House was opened in 1973.
During the Vietnam War，Sydney became a major resting stopover for US soldiers and an entertainment area was developed by King's Cross which remains to this day.The Bicentennial celebrations in 1988 and the massive Darling Harbour redevelopment project boosted the city's development，and today the economy is doing well.
After winning the bid to host the 2000 Olympic Games，Sydney put vast amounts of money into city construction and this is evident when walking through the city today.Nowadays Sydney has people from over one hundred countries.It has a population of nearly 4 million.The city provides excellent places to satisfy any visitor's needs.

發(fā)布：2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷：2引用：1難度：0.8967．They're orange，they're robots and they're capable of sailing the high seas without human intervention.
On Tuesday the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration（NOAA）launched a pair of Saildrones（海洋無人機）in Pacific Northwest waters for the first time.Their summer long sailing journey will stretch from Vancouver Island to California.The Saildrone operators will collect data to help set future fishing seasons.The government wants to see whether seagoing robots can extend fishery surveys now performed by expensive manned ships.
Nora Cohen from NOAA said，"The 23-foot long seagoing robots can follow a remotely programmed course for up to a year at a time.And they don't require any fuel.We use wind and solar power to drive the sensors." He added，"It means that we're able to go to places where we don't really want to send people，and go into weather that we really don't want anyone ever to be in，and be able to send measurements back."
The primary mission is to investigate the species and the number of fish in existence and the places where they are.Larry Hufnagle，scientist of NOAA Fisheries in Seattle，said a traditional big NOAA research ship-based survey costs around ＄25，000 per day.By comparison，one Saildrone costs ＄2，500 per day.
"It could be a significant saving，" Hufnagle said."But like anything else，there is a trade-off in what you get and what you don't get.On the manned ship，we have limited time.It takes a lot of people.We spend a fair amount of money.But there is one thing the Saildrone can't do that humans can：cast a net to catch and positively identify the fish detected below.The Saildrones are going to give us additional data，not replacement data."
Nora Cohen said Saildrone，a venture capital-backed company based in Alameda，California，expects to launch a total of 11 of its seagoing robots to survey different water bodies for NOAA this year.The Bering and Arctic seas，Coastal California and the Gulf of Mexico will be the locations of additional missions.
（1）What is the purpose of collecting fish data？
A．To explore the ocean.
B．To assist fishing industry.
C．To learn the habits of fish.
D．To improve fishing skills.
（2）What is mainly discussed about the Saildrone in Paragraph 3？
A．Its advantages.
B．Its appearance.
C．Its power systems.
D．Its primary mission.
（3）What does the underlined word "trade-off" in Paragraph 5 probably mean？
A．Debate.
B．Reason.
C．Reality.
D．Balance.
（4）What can be inferred from the text？
A．The Saildrone has a promising future.
B．Hufnagle thinks little of the Saildrone.
C．Manned ships will be completely replaced.
D．Production of seagoing robots is restricted.發(fā)布：2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷：10引用：1難度：0.5968．Many airlines now allow passengers to print their boarding passes online

School uniforms are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A.That's no surprise，because they offer many benefits.They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling （標記） that come from clothing.If all students are dressed in the same way，they will not pay too much attention to their clothing，and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the "wrong" clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms，but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule - wanting to look just like their friends.The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers （障礙）；school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places，uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties.For example，when a man or woman puts on a police uniform，he or she becomes，for a time，the symbol of law and order.The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets.People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another.For students，the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms，saying that school uniforms will affect their children's "creativity".Actually，as noted above，the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality.They just copy their classmates.Students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like.While they're in school，their job is to master reading，writing，and mathematics；this should take up all the creativity they have.Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.發(fā)布：2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷：1引用：1難度：0.6
