10、ompany asking them to destroy her school and, if possible, to make sure all her teachers were in there. The thrilling request in sharp contrast to the sweet voice sounded terrifying. Ever since then, the recording has been being transferred and soon she has turned Internet meme. According to the rep

11、ort, in not an anxious, nor a slow voice, Becky said that the teachers were always giving her extra homework on a Friday and therefore she wanted the demolition men to blow the school up, better with all her teachers in it. She also asked how much it would cost them to knock down as big an area as a

12、 ballpark. The clerks of the company burst into laughter the very moment they received the call, which seemed to annoy the girl, who questioned, “Is this a demolition company or a joke factory?” Only then did they bite their lips to keep from laughing and ask, “What for?” The girl gave them her prop

13、osal and then asked them some details of the deal. Before hanging up, she said emphatically that she would fax the company the plan of the school and her teachers names. As soon as the local station broadcast the telephone recording, the sweet and cute girl turned famous overnight. She was then invi

17、ey wanted to calm the girl. D. They didnt take it seriously.B Scientists have long had it in their mind to make a robot lizard (蜥蜴). They began with finding out why a lizard can hang on a wall. They noticed the lizards toes were unique: they have suckers (吸盘), which enable it to hang on walls. They,

18、 therefore, made a robot with suckers on its hands and feet. The robot could hang on the wall but fell off when climbing. So, they went on researching. 6 years ago, scientists discovered that suckers only were not enough. It is the bristles (刚毛) on each foot that adds friction (摩擦) and static adsorp

19、tion (静电吸附力) that makes a lizard move on the smooth wall easily without falling down. Then scientists made great efforts to fix thick bristles to the robots hands and feet. However, the effect was not satisfactory. The robot still couldnt attach itself firmly to the wall. Scientists got puzzled: how

20、 on earth can the lizard climb on an extremely smooth wall or even on a ceiling without dropping off? An accidental finding inspired them. One day a scientist happened to see a cat attack a lizard and bite off its tail. The lizard broke away from the cats teeth and threw itself on a wall to escape,

21、only to fall off heavily on the ground. The scientist wondered: is it the tail that plays an important role in its travelling on the wall? He caught some lizards for an experiment. The result proved his assumption: a tailless lizard has no trouble walking on an ordinary wall but cant on a smooth one

22、. A further study showed the lizards tail can prevent it falling over backward and, whats more, that the tail acts as an additional leg while one of the lizards legs leaves the wall, which is always the case while it is walking on the wall. Thus, Tailbot, a super tailed robot, is born. 25. What part

23、(s) would be a must if scientists just wanted a robot which can hang on the wall? A. Suckers. B. Suckers and bristles. C. Suckers, bristles and a tail.D. Hands, feet, bristles and a tail.26. The bristles function as something _. A. to protect the lizards toes from injury B. to produce friction and s

24、tatic adsorption C. to prevent a lizard falling over backward D. to help a lizard move about without falling27. The biggest importance of a lizards tail lies in _. A. serving as another leg B. helping support the body C. sticking to the wall D. stopping slipping 28. What does the underlined part in

25、the fifth paragraph refer to? A. A lizard often falls over backward while it travels on the wall.B. A lizard often has three legs on the wall while walking on the wall. C. A lizards tail will replace one of its legs while it moves on the wall.D. A lizards tail often stops it fall over backward while

26、 moving on the wall.C One new discovery after another has been over and over again plunging a hard-to-accept idea into scientists minds: there might have been an even more advanced super prehistoric civilization in the remote past. Discovery One: Kept in Topkapi Palace, Istanbul, Turkey is a unique

27、ancient map, which was first discovered in the 18th century. On the map, only the Mediterranean area is accurately mapped while other places, such as America and Africa, are well out of shape. When studying in a deeper way, however, the scientists were amazed at finding the ancient map was actually

28、a birds-eye map. Compared with the pictures of the earth taken by the Apollo 8 spacecraft, the Turkey map is exactly the repeat of them and the deformable boundaries of America and Africa agree well with those of the Apollo 8s pictures. To scientists astonishment, the map even describes the complex

29、landforms of the Antarctic covered with several-kilometer- thick ice, which is as like as two peas with the map made by the 1952 Antarctica expedition with the help of the sonic echo sounder. But the old map was made in the remote ancient times! Discovery Two: On the Lake Titicaca Plateau of South A

30、merica lies the ruin of an ancient city, at the centre of which stands a huge red sandstone statue. Printed on it is a complete star map with hundreds of signs. Through years of study, scientists finally decoded the map and signs. This is a star map describing the starry sky 27,000 years ago. The si

31、gns record the extremely deep astronomic knowledge, which is even beyond the modern peoples understanding. Discovery Three: In 1921, people happened to find an ancient Nied mans skull in Zambia, Africa. In the right of the skull there is an edge-smooth round hole, which scientists have decided only

32、a bullet can make. But the ancient Nied people lived about 70,000 years ago, when mankind is supposed to have just learnt to use axes. Was there really a prehistoric super civilization? God knows! 29. The Turkey map was made in _. A. the 18th century B. the 20th century C. the 1950s D. the remote past30. What is the most important discovery of Discovery Two? A. An ancie
