Their idea was to connect the communities to the Web by satellite. But there was a problem. The areas are not even connected to Kenyas electric power supply. The answer: solar panels. Energy from the sun powers the satellite dishes(蝶形卫星天线) and computers that link the areas with the world outside. Kelly Moran, Joan Ervin and Tricia Donajkowski spent ten days in Kenya in November. The women recently earned masters degrees in space systems engineering from the University of Michigan. Another engineer, Drew Heckathorn, did not go to Africa but worked on parts of the project.Kelly Moran says there was excitement when the team would arrive to connect communities to the Internet. People would sometimes run alongside the car carrying the engineers to welcome them. And local residents would offer to help the team build the Internet stations.People now have access to educational, medical and all kinds of other information. Farmers, for example, can easily find weather, crop and price information online.The project began back at the college of engineering in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 2007. That was when twenty-five students in a class taught by Thomas Zurbuchen first talked about the idea. The goal was to test whether Internet stations could be set up, how much they would cost, and how long they could operate. But the engineers also had to consider others thingslike social needs. Students from the public health and business schools offered advice.The young engineers also had to design the equipment to survive the heat in Africa. Professor Zurbuchen praises his former students for “making something work in a different climate far away from home.” Google paid for the final design of the equipment. The company is also supporting the costs of the satellite bandwidth needed for the connections. Google has invested in a new company that wants to put up a system of satellites over Africa. The availability of more satellites would reduce the costs. Just five percent of Africans have Internet connections. The International Telecommunication Union says onethird of Kenyans have mobile phones. But mobile phones may or may not work well with the Internet. 1.What is the main idea of the whole passage? A.Solar energy has been used to operate the Internet. B.Engineers from America to help the communities in Kenya. C.The Internet Stations to be set up in some areas of rural Kenya. D.The Internet to play an important part in peoples life in Kenya. 2.Why did Google give the project financial support? A.It intends to help to rid Kenyas residents of poverty. B.The use of satellites would benefit a lot its business in Kenya. C.The project is one of its investments in Africa. D.It wants to test whether its equipment is the best in the world. 3.The underlined part in the ninth paragraph suggests that _. A.what Kelly and her partners will do will make a difference to the residents in KenyaB.it is difficult for Kelly and her partners to build the Internet stations in Kenya C.the climate in Kenya is so bad that Kelly and her partners will have difficulty in building the Internet stationsD.To help Kenya build the Internet stations, Kelly and her partners have to leave their homes 4.From the passage we can learn that_. A.the idea of building the Internet stations in Kenya was put forward by Professor ZurbuchenB.the Internet stations are powered by solar energyC.the project hasnt got any support from Kenyas governmentD.Professor Zurbuchen is giving the project the technical directionBWhy do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? Its an increasingly urgent question, given the recent highprofile（引人注目的）mining accidents in Sago, W.Va, and Huntington, Utah. A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望) a day in the not-too-distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work.One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at CarnegieMellon Universitys Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart. It used lasers to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned minessome of the most dangerous work in the business. The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler. Its a bit smaller than Groundhog, and even more advanced. It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted（装置） that can detect the presence of dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logic. If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused, it has to think through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just like a real person.The biggest obstacle,though,is cost. The original research project was federally funded, but that money has dried up, and its not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that reason, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, deaths have declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, according to the National Mining Association. Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry. The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs, but dont eliminate the need for human workers.5.The phrase “throw a fit” in 3rd paragraph probably means_.A.get angry B.get shockedC.become excited D.become cheerful6.The latest robot is more advanced than Groundhog mainly because_.A.It can map abandoned minesB.Its a bit smaller than GroundhogC.It can see in the dark tunnelD.The robot has a real sense of logic7.We can infer from the last paragraph that_.A.the mine robots will have a very bright futureB.robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industryC.there will be no need for human workers in minesD.robots in mines have a long way to go8.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A.High-profile mining accidents in AmericaB.Could robots replace humans in minesC.The development of robotD.Cave Crawler, the latest robot.完成句子1.He is going to _where he left off yesterday.
