How about having it brought to your by a robot? Thanks to Dominos Robotic Unit or DRU, that just became a reality! On March 8, the three-feet tall robot delivered its first pizza to some lucky residents inBrisbane,Australia.The fullyautonomousDRU is the result of acooperation between Dominos Pizza Australia and Marathon Robotics. The 450-poundmachine that travels at a maximum speedof 12.4 miles an hourcantraversea distance of up to 12 miles and back, before requiring a battery recharge. LIDAR, a laser-based sensortechnology similar to the one used inself-driving cars, enables DRU todetectand avoid obstacles, while traditionalsensors, much like those used in vacuum robots ensure its path is safe as it heads to itsdestination.The robot can fit up to ten pizzas and even has a separate cold area to accommodate drink orders. To access their food, customers have to enter the unique code provided to them by the company. This not only ensures that they pick up the right pizza, but also prevents the pies from getting stolen.Scientists expect additional DRUs to be ready for service in their variousQueenslandlocations within the next six months. But dont expect these super cute robots to replace humans anytime soon. According to Dominos the DRU still needs extensive testing, which the company believes could take up to two years.And then there is also the issue ofregulations.

The way you sit in the car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after youve done it in a certain way for so long? Its easy to do as long as you think about it. The minute your mind drifts to something else, you go right back to the old way of doing things.37Its a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace. To change an existing habit or form a new one can be a tedious(单调乏味的) task.Lets pick something fairly easy to start with, like spending 15 minutes in the morning readingtheBible. If you want to turn something into a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it.38Make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis.Imprint(铭刻) it in your mind. Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start.After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, Hey, I forgot to. Keep using the notes if you have to.39Some people say it will take over a month to solidify(变得稳固) it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine.40A. What is a habit anyway?B. Is doing things in an old way good?C. Brushing your teeth is a habit.D. Forming a bad habit is easy.E. It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit.F. If you dont, you will find a way to do everything but that.G.Thats something you wont necessarily have to think about before you do it habit.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）Do you hate to get your hands dirty?When I see my 10-year-old son 41 the dirty plates in the sink or my 8 year-old daughter cringing(畏缩) at the wet sand clinging(黏住) to her hands,I am reminded of a time when I was 42 to get my hands a little dirty.My parents owned a 500-acre 43 in Montana when I was young.Id often come home from school to find a/an 44 lamb or a calf being bottle-fed in the basement.One exceptionally cold day,I was the 45 sheep with my mother in the ranch when she spied a ewe(母羊) 46 .The poor thing was trying to 47 her baby lamb and needed our help.My mother calmly held the ewes head and 48 me to grab hold of the two protruding(突出的) legs.I hesitated,and must have had quite a look of 49 on my young face.The slimy little things were 50 not something I wanted to touch.But I worked up my 51 and wrapped my fingers around them.I can still recall the feel of 52 the delicate legs and their sharp little hooves(蹄子) as of it happened yesterday.My heart beat in fear and excitement as I 53 with all my strength.The lamb was delivered with an outpouring,and Id never seen 54 so beautiful.I was no 55 to see ranch animals being born,but to have a hand 56 it was something I cherished then and will cherish forever.Looking back,Im so glad that I didnt 57 to get my hands dirty. 558 I had,the miraculous moment and the precious memory would have been lost.These days I try to instill(灌输) that life lesson into my own 59 .Sometimes you need to get your hands a little dirty to experience something 60 and pure.41.A.throwing B.wasting C.washing D.avoiding42.A.unwilling B.willing C.thrilled D.content43.A.garden B.ranch C.yard D.field44.A.newborn B.energetic C.strong D.fierce45.A.watching over B.spying on C.checking on D.picking out46.A.in peace B.in silence C.in operation D.in trouble47.A.raise B.bear C.feed D.hug48.A.requested B.commanded C.instructed D.guided49.A.panic B.anxiety C.delight D.excitement50.A.almost B.possibly C.definitely D.approximately51.A.affection B.patience C.confidence D.courage52.A.unbearable B.unexpected C.unfortunate D.uncomfortable53.A.dragged B.rolled C.pushed D.pulled54.A.nothing B.anything C.something D.everything55.A.stranger B.specialist C.reporter D.acquaintance56.A.in B.on C.over D.at57.A.hesitate B.tend C.refuse D.bother58.A.Even if B.When C.Unless D.If59.A.relatives B.children C.friends D.colleagues60.A.embarrassing B.confusing C.C.entertaining D.amazing第卷第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式Anyone who has had a long-term disease knows that recovering at home can be lonely.This can be 61
