A new type of robot could help industries to cut costs and make better products． Industrial robots have long been dangerous， caged creatures． But in recent years， the barriers between robots and humans have been coming down． A friendlier type of robot has begun appearing on the factory floor - and with it， a new way of working that could cut costs in many industries． One area that has benefited hugely is the car industry． "In a car plant， a vehicle is produced every minute， and approximately 1，000 cars are made a day，" said Adolfo Suarez Roos， the Airbus Group expert who works with robotics on the French National Research Agency project ICARO． On the project， robots are able to help workers with repetitive tasks． Suarez is hopeful the same success can be enjoyed while making planes． But given that robotics isn't as widely used， the challenges are very different． "[When making cars] a robot has 40 seconds to do its job and the complete programming task takes about a month，" he said． "At Airbus， we produce 1.5 aircraft per day， so we have to look at tasks that will last several hours． We need mobile robots and a very simple way to program the robot．" At Cranfield University， the EPSRC Centre in Intelligent Automation is trying to make this a reality for flight． An important part of the work is understanding how tasks can be divided between industrial robots and human operators to make use of the skills of both． When man and machine are working together over long periods of time， engineers are looking at how human can improve the robot or the robot can improve the human． The project， called Futurassy， last year began introducing the robots to perform the processes that could be used across other sites by Airbus， an aircraft company． The first robotic unit bought by Airbus arrived last year， and is now used at the A380 station， where humans now work with the robot． Key to the success of this project is safety， and making sure that the barriers between human and robot are just enough to still allow a productive working relationship． Prof Phil Webb claims there is no doubt that the number of robots putting together aircraft will increase significantly over the next few years． Cost pressures placed on the traditional centers in North America and Europe mean they soon won't have a choice but to move ahead with robotics．（1）Which industry has benefited a lot from robotics according to the article？ ____ A． The car industry．B． The plane industry．C． The computer industry．D． The service industry．（2）What are the main difficulties of using robots to make planes？ ____ a． The high cost of robots．b． The safety of using robots．c． The poor creativity of robots．d． Task division between human and robots．e． Finding an easy way to program the robots．A． a， b， cB． b， c， dC． b， d， eD． a， c， e（3）What is the main factor that has pushed the aircraft industry to move ahead with robotics？ ____ A． Technology development．B． Cost pressures．C． A shortage of workers．D． The low efficiency of workers．（4）What is the article mainly about？ ____ A． Safety tips for robotics in industries．B． The aircraft industry's difficult situation．C． The use of robots in the aircraft industry．D． The advantages and disadvantages of robots．

If you think a high-factor sunscreen (防晒霜) keeps you safe from harmful rays，you may be wrong．Research in this week's Nature shows that while factor 50reduces the number of melanomas (黒瘤) and delays their occurrence，it can't prevent them．Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers．You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair，fair skin，blue or green eyes，or sunburn easily，or if a close relative has had one．Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun．Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure． There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas---the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer．A 2011Australian study of 1，621people found that people randomly selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed．A second study，comparing 1，167people with melanomas to 1，101who didn't have the cancer，found that using sunscreen routinely，alongside other protection such as hats，long sleeves or staying in the shade，did give some protection．This study said other forms of sun protection---not sunscreen---seemed most beneficial．The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives，so it's not entirely reliable．But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun． Many people also don't use sunscreen properly---applying insufficient amounts，failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long．It is sunburn that is most worrying---recent research shows five episodes of sunburn in the teenage years increases the risk of all skin cancers． The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates，as shown by Australian figures from their slip-slop-slap campaign．So if there is a heat wave this summer，it would be best for us，too，to slip on a shirt，slop on (抹上) sunscreen and slap on a hat． 12．What does the research in Nature say about a high-factor sunscreen？ A．It is ineffective in preventing melanomas． B．It is ineffective in case of intense sunlight． C．It is ineffective with long-term exposure． D．It is ineffective for people with fair skin． 13．What do we learn from the 2011Australian study of 1，621people？ A．Sunscreen should be applied alongside other protection measures． B．High-risk people benefit the most from the application of sunscreen． C．Irregular application of sunscreen does women more harm than good． D．Daily application of sunscreen helps reduce the incidence of melanomas． 14．What does the author say about the second Australian study？ A．It misleads people to rely on sunscreen for protection． B．It helps people to select the most effective sunscreen． C．It is not based on direct observation of the subjects． D．It confirms the results of the first Australian study． 15．What does the author suggest to reduce melanoma rates？ A．Using both covering up and sunscreen． B．Staying in the shade whenever possible． C．Using covering up instead of sunscreen． D．Applying the right amount of sunscreen．
