Has it come to this？Robots standing in for doctors at the hospital patients' bedside?
Not exactly，but some doctors have found a way to use a robot to check on patients while they're miles from the hospital.
One is at Baltimore's Sinai Hospital.Equipped with cameras，a screen and microphone，the
robot is guided into the rooms of Dr Alex Gandsas' patients where he speaks to them as if he were right there.
“The system allows you to be anywhere in the hospital from anywhere in the world，” said the surgeon，who specializes in weight-loss operation.
Besides his normal morning and afternoon personal visits，Gandsas uses the $150,000 robot to visit patients at night or when problems arise.The robot can circle the bed and adjust the position of its two cameras，giving the perception from the patient's standpoint that the doctor is there.“They love it.They'd rather see me through the robot，” he said of his patients' reaction to the machine.Nurse Florence Ford，who has worked with the robot since it was introduced about 18 months ago，said patients have reacted well，particularly because “seeing the doctor's face gives them confidence.”
Gandsas presented the idea to hospital leaders as a method to more closely observe patients following weight-loss operation.Since its introduction，Dr Alex found that nearly one third of his
376 patients went out of hospital earlier than first expected.
Michael Chan，president of InTouch Technologies，said his company's device allows doctors to “be in more than one place at the same time.”
Speaking with Gandsas through one of the robots at company headquarters，Chan said the company designs applications for the devices in remote areas and for dealing with shortages of health care workers.“They will soon be big，”said Chan when asked about their future.
36．According to Dr Alex，the purpose of using robots in the hospital is that ______. A．robots can provide patients more fun than doctors
B．patients will be closely watched after being operated on C．robots can free doctors from their great work pressure
D．hospitals can solve the problem of lacking medical workers
37．According to the passage，which of the following statements of the robot is Correct? A．It has replaced Dr Alex to visit his patients every day. B．The patients would rather have it treat their diseases.
C．It has reduced the duty that doctors should have for their patients. D．Patients are likely to be treated even when doctors are far away. 38．By using robots，Dr Alex finds that ______.
A．patients visited by robots may recover completely sooner B．the number of patients in his hospital is reducing a lot C．he can operate on different patients at the same time
D．their hospital doesn't need as many medical workers as before
39．From the last sentence，we can learn that Michael Chan thinks that ______. A．people won't believe robots will do well in the future
B．in the future bigger robots will be made to satisfy the needs C．more robots of this kind will be used in hospitals
D．the prices of the robots will be greatly reduced in the future 40．What would be the best title of the passage? A．Robot Replaces Doctors to Treat Patients B．Robot Visits Patients When Doctors Can't C．High-tech Makes Patients Better Communicate with Doctors
D．Robot Has Begun to Play a Great Part in Hospital Management
B
Everyone is seeking happiness，but there is no specific definition about what happiness is，because for different people，happiness means different things.State of happiness comes when you feel great joy and satisfaction in life.The unity of soul and mind is very important for getting happiness，because mind creates a comfortable environment for the soul.And mind has the power to control human actions and feelings.
The essence（本质）of happiness lies in the fact that you do what brings you pleasure.It's very simple.A person has a built-in system，an analogue（模拟的）GPS（Global Positioning
System）.GPS is a piece of equipment that is most often put in cars，and shows the route from its present location to the destination.Here's how it works.You get in your car，choose a destination，and specify an exact address.GPS immediately determines the best route and the arrow（箭头）shows the direction of the route.If you follow the instructions of GPS all the time，you will arrive at your destination.If you do not follow the instructions，it will say“change the route”．
So here's your “GPS”；it is your emotional system.When you feel joy，you're going the right way to a happy life.When you feel sad and depressed，you're going in the wrong direction.Your “GPS”says：“Change the route.”Some people are so used to this “change the route”that they in general no longer hear the “GPS”.Change the route—it's your dissatisfaction，negative emotions and a sense of unhappiness.
Listen to your GPS.If the way is chosen incorrectly，your “GPS” would tell you to “change the route”．To gain your happiness，do follow your “GPS”.
41．It can be learned from the first paragraph that ______. A．one's happiness is that he/she lives comfortably B．one's mind has nothing to do with one's happiness C．the author gave an exact definition about happiness D．different people have different ideas about happiness
42．In the author's opinion，we can gain happiness by ______. A．putting GPS in the car
B．listening to the advice from others C．doing what can make us feel pleased D．trying our best to keep our mind peaceful 43．What is the function of GPS?
A．It can judge whether a person is happy.
B．It can show the user the best route to follow. C．It can help a driver avoid traffic accidents.
D．It can make the user get to the destination immediately.
44．People mentioned in Paragraph 3 who are used to “change the route”______. A．don't have a happy life B．don't know how to use GPS C．don't have a built-in system
D．follow the instructions of GPS
45．What's the structure of the passage? A．①—②—③④ B．①②—③④ C．①—②③—④ D．①②—③—④ Ⅳ．七选五 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
A few weeks ago，we talked about the Test of English as a Foreign Language，or TOEFL.A listener in Cambodia named Thida asks if American colleges and universities also accept the IELTS exam.IELTS is the International English Language Testing System.It was developed by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations.
Cambridge University
Cambridge ESOL says the test measures true-to-life ability to communicate in English for
education，immigration or employment.The IELTS tests listening，reading，writing and speaking skills.It uses a mixture of accents and spellings，including British English and American English.
The test is used by government agencies，schools and professional organizations in one hundred and twenty countries.__46__ Many American schools that accept the IELTS can be found on the Web at ielts.org.
__47__ But the graduate school at Duke University in Durham，North Carolina，for example，says it prefers the IELTS.
The listening and speaking parts are the same for everyone who takes the IELTS.But people
