父爱陷阱


那年,他随父亲去狩猎,不慎掉进陷阱。突如其来的一阵黑暗,使他无法适应。他拼命挣扎,拼命呼喊父亲,但是这一切都是徒劳的。他清楚,不久前,父亲出猎时,耳朵受了伤,一直没康复。他所有的呼喊,父亲可能真的听不到。
可是,他居然看见井口边,父亲正在伸头探望。他喜出望外,挥动双手,大声地喊着,爹,我在这儿!爹,我在这儿!父亲还是没听见。也许是陷阱内的光线太暗,父亲看了一会儿,没发现他,就转身离开了。那一刻,他急得哭了。
他沿着井壁走了一周,没发现任何能攀援的地方,要想离开陷阱,凭他的能力,几乎是不可能的。他绝望地坐在地上,等待救援。时间一分一秒地过去,他期待着父亲能早点再找到这里,并能发现他。
井下昏暗潮湿,坐在井底,他感到了阵阵寒意。更糟糕的是,他感觉肚子前所未有地饥饿。父亲一时找不到他,可能回村里喊救兵了。他意识到,即使父亲能以最快的速度赶回来,也需要两天的时间,那么,他能坚持两天吗而他现在唯一能做的,只有耐心地等待。
周边非常安静,他知道,夜幕开始降临了。忽然,他听到一阵窸窸窣窣的声音,好像是井边的草丛在响,可能是危险动物向井边靠近了。他无法想象,即使是一只常见的獾子,跟他同时窝在一个陷阱内,后果也难以接受。更何况在森林里,危险的动物不计其数。
他提起警觉,掏出那把猎刀,作好了随时跟动物拼命的准备。幸运的是那声音一会儿又消失了——动物可能转个方向离开了。他松了一口气,再次坐到地上。
没多久,困意向他袭来,他闭上了眼睛。忽然那声音再次响起,他重新提高了警惕。他意识到,在井内比在任何地方都危险,他没有退路,他必须时刻保持清醒。但是坚持不了多久,他又松懈了,只有听到井口的声音,他才又振作起来。
夜深了,他不再指望父亲能来救他。如果父亲真的不来,那么,他将永远被困在井内。对于他来说,等待或许才是最危险的。想到这里,他再次站起来,沿着井壁寻找出路。他发现,井壁其实都是些松软的泥土,他掏出猎刀,在井壁上挖出阶梯,挖一步,向上爬一步。他相信,只要他能坚持住,不久就可以爬出陷阱。
他终于成功了!当他爬到井口时,黎明的霞光正照射过来,明亮而美丽。他几乎耗尽了所有力气,一屁股坐在草地上。
突然,他一跃而起,好像踩上了毒蛇一般——他发现了父亲!父亲竟然就站在一棵大树后面,静静地看着他,身边的草丛凌乱不堪。那一刻,他几乎气晕了——父亲竟然一直守在井口,任由他在井内痛苦地挣扎。他没想到父亲竟然如此冷漠绝情。
父亲满脸憔悴,看到他,显得非常兴奋,赶忙跑过来拥抱他。
他一把将父亲推开,气急败坏地说,我没有你这个见死不救的父亲!
父亲伸出的手僵住了,愣了愣,显得很愧疚。父亲说,对不起。
他说,你知道,我在井里多么期盼着你来救我;而你,竟然就一直守在井口看着我痛苦。
父亲说,我知道你掉入陷阱,但是,我也知道,凭你的能力,能顺利爬出陷阱。因为井壁的土质很松软,只要有把猎刀就能顺利爬出来,而你身上就有一把猎刀。整个晚上,我守在井口,一步不敢离开,因为随时会有动物靠近陷阱。为了提醒你,我不得不用脚踩草丛,制造声音,幸运的是,昨天晚上一直没有任何动物出现。我知道,你习惯了等待救助,但是,更多的情况下,你等不到救援你必须学会自救!这便是我挖这口陷阱的初衷。
他的双眼湿润了,他理解了父亲的苦心。他扑进父亲怀里,说,爹,对不起!父亲拥抱着他,开心地笑了。
那年,他才十三岁,却一夜间成熟得像个老猎人。

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)

What if you arrived home to find a delicious hot meal waiting for you,prepared by your very own kitchen robot? It might sound like science fiction,but professors at the university of Tokyo have taken the first steps toward making that scenario a reality.The team recently introduced a humanoid kitchen robot that can pour tea and other drinks into cups and serve them to guests.When teatime is over,the robot can also wash the dishes and put them away.

In California,another interesting kitchen robot has been developed.Called the Ready-bot,it can pick up objects and either store them in cabinets or put them in the trash.It also carries a separate floor-cleaning robot that can operate by itself.Unlike the Japanese robot,Readybot is not humanoid.Instead,it looks more like a large box with arms and wheels.

Readybot was created by engineers and designers who established a club called the Readybot Challenge.They believe that in the future millions of robots will be needed in homes to perform ordinary household tasks.Readybot is just the first step in their plan to create a robot that can tackle jobs not only in kitchens but in other rooms of homes and in offices as well.

Clearly there are technological hurdles to overcome before robots can cook a complete dinner,and there are also many safety concerns.Not everyone(especially parents)would be comfortable with the idea of robots in their house,manipulating hot pans and sharp knives.The European Commission recently funded a project to study these concerns.

56.What does the writer imply about the Japanese robot?

A.It performs fewer functions than readybot can.

B.it looks more like a person than Readybot does.

C.It speaks more languages than Readybot does.

D.It costs 1ess to manufacture than Readybot does.

57.Where do the engineers and designers hope that Readybot will operate in the future?

A.On spacecraft                                             B.In automobiles
