（2015•温州市高三第二次适应性测试） My favorite sport is playing basketball. In the middle school, I joined in the basketball team. All the teammate practised hard after school. Once our team had match against another school’s. At the very beginning, we were so nervous which we couldn’t cooperate very good, because this was the first time for us to compete with the school honor. In the half match they fell behind. Our team leader calls us together and said that we must get uniting in order to beat them. Then we tried our best and won the game at last. Play basketball makes me realize the importance of union and teamwork.

My dad and we had to it;there was nothing we could do.He said if the bird mother smelled any traces(踪迹) of ,she wouldn't go near the again.
As we began to walk away,a woman .”Did it fall out of a nest ?”she asked.
“Yeah.”I answered.
“It a lot. Not much we can do,”she said .”Try not to think about it when you go to sleep tonight.”
I walked the mailbox the next day.The baby bird lay in the grass.
I realize that “Try not to think about it” is the of many people towards things which to provide them with perfect excuses not bothering . The woman wasn't being ; she was actually quite nice. But when everyone says”there's I can do —just try not to think about it，”Where will we finally ?

Unique New Year's Traditions from Around the World
How do you celebrate New Year’s? If I had to take a guess，you probably celebrate New Year’s surrounded by family and friends，enjoying drinks of your choice and watching the ball drop with Dick Clark．1.Listed below are five of the top ten“Unique New Year Traditions from Around the World．”
1．Breaking Dishes on Neighbor’s Door
A strange Danish New Year tradition，depending on how you look at it, is throwing dishes at neighbor’s door．2.The family with the tallest tower of broken plates，glasses，cups and other crockery is considered to be the luckiest person because it symbolizes their large amount of loyal friends．
2．Talking to Spirits
Talking to spirits is a part of Mexican belief．Mexicans strongly believe that they can communicate with the souls of their dead loved ones．3.And this is not done at home on an individual basis but is a legal Mexican practice．Taos Inn，in New Mexico for example，offers 15 minutes session of spiritualism and meditation for ＄15.6．Not a bad price for some helpful guidance！
3．Wearing Polka Dots
Imagine streets full of people wearing polka dots and dining room tables full of round shaped food and fruits on one single day of the year．4.Philippines believe that this will bring them prosperity by associating the round dots to coins and wealth．
4．Burning Scarecrow Dummy
Ecuador has a unique custom of crafting Scarecrows and then burning them at midnight．They adorn them and fill the scarecrows with newspapers and pieces of wood．As midnight approaches，everyone gathers outside their home and each family burns their own scarecrow．5.The scarecrow also scares away bad luck，which in rurn，fills their new year with luck and happiness．
A．New Year’s Eve is considered the best time to communicate with dead spirits to convey a message or ask for guidance．
B．It is also believed in the Irish culture that this act will help them get rid of bad luck．
C．Have you ever imagined how New Year’s would look in another country?
D．This all actually happens in the Philippines on New Year’s Eve every year．
E．Strangely，this makes them happy instead of annoying them．
F．We all want to start a new，fresh year with renewed enthusiasm and hope．
G．The tradition says that this destroys all the bad things that took place in the past months．
Robots make me nervous-especially the ones which seem to think for themselves．I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates，the founder of Microsoft，felt the same way．Gates said in an interview with the website Reddit：“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence．First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent．That should be positive if we manage well．A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern．”
Well，maybe I don’t have to worry about my laptop and kitchen appliances yet．After I use them I can always pull the plug．But in the future，machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off．There’s a scary thought!
Professor Stephen Hawking warned a few months ago about the possibility that artificial intelligence could evolve and end up beyond human contro1．He suggested that machines could“spell the end of the human race”．
Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil or rebellious．What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient．That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University believes．He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals，the destruction of people might be just collateral(附带的)damage．A machine would not take pity on you．
I’m glad my machines at home are“dumb”．All my vacuum cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room．Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world!
1.We can conclude from Gates’statements that ___________．
A．he is embarrassed that he is afraid of robots
