New events and changes of junior golf competition calendar
New events
Notah BegayⅢJunior Golf National Championship
What does a junior golfer aim to pursue? One thing is to be noticed, ideally by a college coach. A remarkable opportunity will be offered by the Notah BegayⅢJunior Golf National Championship to its participants: an event broadcast by Golf Channel. Players aged between eight and 18 can compete in the new event; information about where and when it will be held will be released later. Barbasol Junior Championship
Beginning the career in the PGA Tour is something that a junior golfer tends to dream of. The Barbasol Junior Championship, which is scheduled to take place between June 29 and July 2 at Keene Trace Golf Club inNicholasville,Kentucky, will provide such an opportunity. Boys under 19 years old will qualify for this new 54-hole event, and the winner will be awarded a spot at the PGA Tour's Barbasol Championship in July. Changed events
Thunderbird International Junior
The dates of the AJGA's Thunderbird International Junior have to be changed since the NCAA Championships move to Grayhawk Golf Club inScottsdale,Arizona, for the next three years. Generally, the Thunderbird is played at the end of May. However, this year it is scheduled on different dates for the first time, from April 9 to 12, which means, of course, that the finish date is on Masters Sunday. Gator Invitational
Junior golf intends to prepare for the following college golf. If this is the case, then it is crucial to simulate the higher-level experience as much as possible. Because of that, the Gator Invitational, as a junior boys' event, has made a significant decision on becoming a 54-hole event by adding a round this year. The new version will be played from March 13 to 15 at The Country Club of Jackson inJackson,Mississippi. 1. Which event can be watched on TV?
A. Notah BegayⅢJunior Golf National Championship. B. Barbasol Junior Championship. C. Thunderbird International Junior. D. Gator Invitational. 2. When will the Thunderbird International Junior be played? A. At the end of May. B. From April 9 to 12.
C. Between June 29and July 2. D. From March 13 to 15. 3. What has been changed about the Gator Invitational?
A. The award given to the winner B. The place where it is played. C. The required age of the players. D. The number of rounds it has.

A team of engineers atHarvardUniversity in trying to create the first robotic fly. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
\"The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own’ said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings hasa number of interdependencies (相互依赖）on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it d connected to,” said Wood.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites，in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. \"Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around，” he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications.“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animal，but using these robots instead” he said. \"So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.” 4. What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly? A. It's automatic. B.It's very small. C. It's controllable. D. It's quite powerful. 5. We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can____ . A. act as a spy plane B. help do farm work
C.fly at a very high speed D. answer many scientific questions 6. What is Wood's idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph? A. It is highly questionable. B. It has wide practical applications.
C. It gives scientists interest in flying machines. D. It points to a new direction in studying biology. 7. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Harvand's Study in the Field of Insects. B. A Breakthrough in Engineering Science C. An Interesting Invention一Robotic Fly D. Robotic Fly一a Copy of Real Life Insect
C
We use what is known as inner speech, where we talk to ourselves, to evaluate situations and make decisions. Now, a robot has been trained to speak aloud its inner decision-making process, giving us a view of how it responds to contradictory demands.
Arianna Pipitone and Antonio Chella at the University of Palermo, Italy, programmed a humanoid robot named Pepper, with software that models human cognitive(认知的)processes, which allowed Pepper to retrieve (检索)relevant information from its memory and find the correct way to act based on human commands, as well as a text — to — speech processor. It allowed Pepper to voice its decision-making process while completing a task, \"With inner speech, we can better understand what the robot wants to do and what its plan is,\" says Chella. The researchers asked Pepper to set a dinner table according to etiquette (礼仪)rules they had programmed into the robot. Inner speech was either enabled or disabled to see how it affected Pepper's ability to do what was instructed.
When instructed to place a napkin on a fork with its inner speech enabled, Pepper asked itself what the etiquette required and concluded that this request went against the rules it had been given. It then asked the researchers if putting the napkin on the fork was the correct action. When told it was, Pepper said, \"OK, I prefer to follow your desire,\" and explained how it was going to place the napkin on the fork.
When asked to do the same task with inner speech disabled, Pepper knew this contradicted etiquette rules, so it didn't perform the task or explain why.
With the potential for robots to become more common in the future, this type of programming could help the
public understand their abilities and limitations, says Sarah Sebo at theUniversityofChicago. \"It maintains people's trust and enables cooperation and interactions between humans and robots,\" she says. However, this experiment only used a single human participant, says Sebo. \"It's unclear how their approach would compare across a wide range of human participants,\" she says.
8. Why does the author mention how people make decisions in the first paragraph? A. To introduce the topic. B. To make comparisons. C. To provide an example. D. To support his argument.
9. How did Pepper react to the contradictory instruction with its inner speech enabled? A. It failed to complete the task. B. It followed the etiquette rules. C. It made a random decision.
D. It communicated with the researchers. 10. What did Sarah Sebo think of the research? A. It was creative but worthless.
B. It was a good try but the result was a failure. C. It was inspiring but needed further evidence. D. It was carefully designed but poorly performed. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Robot Taught To Be Polite B. Robot Can Explain Its Decision
C. Robot Making Decisions: No Longer A Dream D. Robot-Human Communication: No Longer A Problem
D
Last summer, Maria and her mother moved from their house in the countryside to a flat building in Chicago. Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.
One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.
“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don’t have a yard,” said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said.
Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof. When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.
“What a wonderful garden!” said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.
“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, “but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside. You just have to be creative!” 12. Where did Mrs. Garcia take Maria to one day? A. The park. B. The roof.
C. The garden in front of her house. D. The countryside. 13. Which of the following is NOT the good side of the community garden? A. It made the building stronger. B. It helped keep the air clean. C. It helped keep the building cooler. D. It used the empty space well. 14. After Maria visited the garden, she would most probably ask her mom to ________. A. go back to the countryside B. pick flowers from the garden C show her around the park D. grow vegetables on the roof 15. What is the best title for this passage?
A. A Creative Lady B. An Empty Roof C. A Rooftop Garden D. A Special Building

Young children learn new words by imitating the speakers around of them. When 3-year-olds hear a new word that catch their interest, they may use it repeated for a day or two until they feel comfortably with it. They establish its meaning from the context, often by trial and error. They add new words to their vocabulary so they need them to make themselves understand.
