answer sheet to


Imagine the busy streets of New York City, an enormous place with millions of
people. Every day, the streets are congested with people going about their daily lives. Now
imagine a small robot in the middle of all of those people rolling down a busy sidewalk. Most
people would not even notice the teninch smiling robot, called a Tweenbot, rolling along the
street. This strange machine may interest some people, while others would ignore it
completely. A researcher interested in studying how helpful people really are uses such robots
in her experiments that take place on the streets of New York.

The Tweenbots experiment is the idea and creation of Kacie Kinzer. Kinzer’s idea was
to make a robot that could navigate the city and reach its destination only if it was aided by
pedestrians. Tweenbots rely on the kindness of warm-hearted strangers. Made simply of
cardboard, wheels, and a device to turn the wheels, the Tweenbots face many dangers on the
city streets. They could be run over by cars or smashed by careless kids. Kinzer thought her
little robots might even be seen as some kind of terrorist device. The only real protection a
Tweenbot has is its friendly smile. In addition to that, each of Kinzer’s robots is fitted with a
flag that displays instructions for the robot’s destination. The only way these robots will reach
their final point is if someone lends them a hand. Tweenbots are essentially a social
experiment aimed at providing people a chance to show how caring they are.
On a daily basis, people in New York City are often in a hurry to get around.
However, the Tweenbots, through their inability to look after themselves, took people out of
their normal routines. The people who noticed the helpless little robots were actually
interested in helping the Tweenbots find their way home. Tweenbots move at a constant speed
and can only go in a straight line. If one was to get stuck, or was going in the wrong
direction, it would be up to strangers to free it or turn it in the right direction. Surprisingly, no
Tweenbot was lost or damaged, and each one arrived at its target in good condition. In fact,
most people treated the robot in a gentle manner, and some even treated it as though it were a
small living being.
Even if you were in a rush to go somewhere, would you stop and help a Tweenbot
successfully reach its destination?
Question 36: What is this reading about?
A. A place to buy robots

B. A new kind of toy

C. An experiment

D. An interesting idea for the future

Question 37: What is a Tweenbot?
A. A person from New York City

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
By the mid-nineteenth century, the term "icebox" had entered the American language,
but ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The
ice trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels, taverns, and hospitals, and by

some forward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butter. After the Civil War
(1860-1865), as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars, it also came into household use. Even
before 1880, half the ice sold in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and one-third of that
sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible
because a new household convenience, the icebox, a precursor of the modern refrigerator, had
been invented.
Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early
nineteenth century, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of
refrigeration, was rudimentary. The common-sense notion that the best icebox was one that
Truy cập website –xem chi tiết lời giải


prevented the ice from melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that
performed the cooling. Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice included wrapping the ice
in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth
century did inventors achieve the nice balance of insulation and circulation needed for an
efficient icebox.
But as early as 1803, an ingenious Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the
right track. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which
the village of Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design
to transport his butter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting
stuff in the tubs of his competitors to pay a premium price for his butter, still fresh and hard in
neat, one-pound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that farmers
would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.
