1.Early in the morning,I saw my six year-old son fighting with my azalea (杜鵑花) bush.By the time I got outside,he'd broken it. "Can I take this to school today?" he asked.With a wave of my hand,1 sent him off.I turned my back so he wouldn't see the tears gathering in my eyes.I loved that azalea bush.
I spent most of the day washing and drying clothes.As I finished hanging up the last of my husband's shirts,I hurriedly drove to the school to pick up Jonathan.
By the time I arrived,the teacher took me aside. "I want to talk to you about Jonathan" she said.I prepared myself for the worst.Nothing would have surprised me. "Did you know Jonathan brought flowers to school today?" she asked.I nodded,thinking about my favorite bush and trying to hide the hurt in my eyes.
"Let me tell you about yesterday" the teacher insisted,"See that little girl?" I watched the bright-eyed child laugh and point to a colorful picture on the wall.I nodded.
"Well,yesterday she was almost crazy.Her mother and father are going through a divorce.I watched that little girl bury her face in her hands and say loud enough for the class to hear, 'Nobody loves me.'I did all I could to comfort her,but it only seemed to make matters worse.
"Today your son walked straight over to that child.I watched him hand her some pretty pink flowers and whisper, 'I love you.'"
I felt my heart swell with pride for what my son had done.I smiled at the teacher.
"Thank you," I said,reaching for Jonathan's hand," you've made my day"

2.When a person in the United States gets the COVID-19 vaccine(疫苗),the person receives a small piece of paper called a "COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card".
It is a piece of paper with the logo of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,or CDC,and the name and date of the vaccine.Because it is so simple,it could be easy to fake.
Many people in the U.S.jye.ai still unsure about getting the vaccine.As universities,workplaces and other places are requiring proof of vaccination,some people are now buying fake vaccination cards without getting a shot.
The Associated Press reports that students and teachers at universities around the U.S.jye.ai worried about fake cards.Sellers are using social media apps like Instagram to advertise fake vaccination cards.The prices range from ﹩25 to ﹩200.The AP notes that many college students seem interested in buying the cards.On the site Reddit,one person wrote, "I need one,too,for college.I refuse to be a guinea pig."
It is reported that more than 700 universities and colleges require proof of vaccination.Most schools simply ask their students to take a photo of their card and send it to a school website.Benjamin Mason Meier is a professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,UNC.He studies international health policy.He said,unlike some countries,the U.S.jye.ai not using a digital system to record vaccine status.He said the U.S.jye.ai depending on "a flimsy paper card",and students have told him they knew of others who had used fake vaccination cards.Rebecca Williams also works at UNC.She is a researcher at the school's Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.She said she was not surprised that people were worried about fake vaccination cards. "This is why I think the development of a reliable national digital vaccine passport app is very important," she said.
There is a law that should prevent people from making false vaccination cards.If someone uses the CDC logo without permission,they can be lined and punished by up to five years in prison.The U.S.Department of Justice recently charged a person in California with making fake vaccination cards.
College students who already have the vaccine are criticizing those who would rather spend money to buy a fake than get a free shot.Maliha Reza is an electrical engineering student at Pennsylvania State University,She called those students "dumb".

3.Have you ever made eye contact with a robot?It can be a very strange experience.Scientists even have a name for the feeling:the "uncanny valley"
Now,researchers at the Istituto Italiano di Tccnologia (IIT) in Italy have found that it is more than just a feeling.They ran an experiment that showed how a robot's gaze (注視)can make people think they are socially interactive with a human being.
That experience can slow a person's ability to make decisions.The team asked 40 people to play a video game of "thicken".In the game,each player has to decide whether to allow a car to drive straight toward another car or to turn to avoid a crash.The people were playing against a human-like robot sitting across from them.
During breaks in the game,players had to look at the robot.Sometimes the robot would look back and other times it would look away.As the interactions happened,the scientists collected data on behavior and brain activity.
"Our results show that,actually,the human brain treats the robot gaze as a social signal,and that signal influences the way we're making decisions,on the way we use in the game and also on our reactions." Wykowska said.
The findings could be useful in helping to decide where and how human-like robots might be placed in the future.
(1)What does "it" mean in paragraph 2?

The Voice of Rigo Rigo had a loud voice.People were always telling Rigo to be quiet.His mother would tell him to use his quiet voice inside the house because the baby was asleep.His father would ask him to speak quietly in the car so that he could concentrate on his driving.His teacher would tell him to talk quietly so he would not bother others who were studying.
Not only did he have a loud voice,but Rigo liked to talk a lot.Whenever he had time,he would talk with his classmates,sharing everything he considered fun.He liked to yell and shout.Sometimes he just yelled,"Hey!" for no reason.He liked the sound of his very loud voice for he thought it had more penetrating(穿透的) power than that of an actor.But not everyone felt the same way.
When Rigo shouted goodbye as he left for school,his mother shook her head, "Rigo!Be quiet!" When his father drove him to school,Rigo said, "Hey!There's Chris!" He pointed at his friend,who was walking to school.His father shook his head. "Rigo,use a quiet voice in the car." At school,his teacher talked to him three times about using his quiet voice.His classmates shook their heads,throwing an upset look at him when he talked aloud.
Later,Rigo had to sit by himself for a while.His teacher wanted him to practice being quiet.Rigo had to sit quietly for five minutes.It felt like five hours or five days.When the five minutes was up,Rigo went to his desk and sat quietly.It was not easy.
After school,Rigo was waiting for his father when he saw Chris again. "Hey!" he yelled. "Chris!Hey!" The headmaster was walking by.Rigo was sure he was going to get in trouble for his loud voice.He looked quickly at the ground.Maybe the headmaster would keep walking.
注意:續(xù)寫詞數(shù)為150詞左右。
Paragraph 1:
The headmaster stopped and looked at Rigo._____________
Paragraph 2:
He said goodbye to the headmaster and ran to get in his father's car cheerfully.____________組卷:2引用:2難度:0.2
