FOOD, football, and fashion – Milan has it all. The city is perhaps most famous for its annual (一年一度的) Milan Fashion Week and its world-class soccer teams AC Milan and Inter Milan. And May will see it host the six-month Milan Expo(米兰世博会), the theme of which is food and nutrition（营养）.
Milan may not be the first place tourists think of when they think of Italy. Rome is the most famous city in Italian history, Venice draws visitors who want to travel along its canals(运河) and Florence is popular with the art lovers. Yet Milan can often be let off tourists’ lists. But although some see Milan as the “Ugly Sister” of these cities, in 2015, the city is “Suddenly back in fashion in a big way”.
The delicious Milan Expo will look at the future of food, trying to answer the question of how Earth’s fast-growing population can be fed in the future. According to the Lonely Planet website, “144 countries will set up shops in northwest of central Milan, forming a mini city-within-a-city”.
Milan’s famous opera house, La Scala, normally(通常地) closed in the summer, will also host daily performances during the Expo, reported Fox News.
Not interested in opera? Don’t worry. Visitors who prefer sports may want to visit the San Siro Stadium(体育馆), home of the soccer teams AC Milan and Inter Milan. The stadium is one of the most famous in Europe and has seen many important games over the years, both in Series A (甲级联赛) and the European Champions league（欧比赛）.
So even if all of its fashion and beautiful people can make Milan seem “Soulless(缺乏灵魂的)” as Lonely Planet said, it still has “a serious sense of history and place”. Many people will be discovering it this year, and eating great food from all over the world to help solve world problems. Will you?

As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.
Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real? Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge.
You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream, the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.
You must also never give up your dream.
There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.

Robots have come a long way since 15th century. We’ve got robots to build cars, carry heavy things, work in dangerous places and explore planets. But things haven’t stopped there.
In 1986, Honda made a robot called ASIMO. And now, it has been developed greatly. Standing at 130cm and weighing 54kg. ASIMO is very much like a small astronaut wearing a bag on the back. And he can walk, flight, climb and run fast. Isn’t it wonderful?
The world’s first robot teacher is Saya. With her human-like face, she can show expressions like happiness, surprise, sadness, dislike, fear and she can even smile or show anger at students, which look much like a real teacher’s. To do this, her rubber skin is pulled from the back with motors inside. And her eyes and mouth have wires(电线) too. She can also say some simple words like “hello” or “thank you”.
In the UK, the development of robots is exciting. The mini-robots will send food, clean floors, collect and throw away waste. These robots can open doors by themselves and stop if anything or anyone is in the way.
These mini-robots are very useful for controlling infection(传染). Usually clean and dirty work is done by the same person, but here, you’ll have robots that do”dirty work”, like collecting dirty sheets, or taking away hospital waste； and you’ll have robots that do”clean work”, like bringing meals or clean sheets to patients. The robots have separate work so there’s no way for infection, which is great. But of course, robots would not take the piece of humans, but would free up more time for nurses to be with patients.
But if this is what it’s like in 2011, what’s it going to be like to 2021?
1.In the following, which is ASIMO’s behavior?
A. Smiling at people, saying “hello”.
B. Sending food or opening doors by himself
C. Fighting, climbing or running fast
D. Collecting waste for patients
2.What makes Saya look real?
A. Her face and rich expressions B. Her clothes and shoes
C. Her walking and running speed D. Her rich knowledge
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Robots have come a long way since 1986.
B. The first robot teacher was made by Honda.
C. Saya looks like a small astronaut.
D. If anyone or anything is in the way, mini-robots will stop.
4.The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that _______.
A. nurses would have more free time with patients
B. robots would not take the place of humans
C. dirty and clean work is always done by the same person
D.mini-robots are useful for controlling infection
