My city has been changing since the municipal authority had a plan to renovate the
canal systems. The project cost a huge amount of money which was from the support of
the world bank and the city's budget. Before the renovation, the canal was the dirtiest
place full of rubbish along its sides. Many ramshackle shacks were built to be shelters of
the impoverished working families migrating to this city to earn their living. Household
wastes were directly dumped into the canal, resulting in the very contaminated
environment. It was said that the very unpleasant smell releasing from the canal was
unable to be eliminated, and the living condition there would not be better. However,
thanks to the advanced technology and methods as well as the city authority's effort,
everything has been changing. There is no longer the disgusting smell or shabby
houses along both sides of the canal. Instead, the road running parallel to the canal is
now full of shade of greenery and the water now is so clean that it is a friendly habitat
for a variety of fish. The residents now can walk or do morning exercise on the
sidewalks along the banks to enjoy the fresh atmosphere. Former inhabitants are also
relocated in new apartments with much better living conditions than before. The canal
creates not only a beautiful urban landscape, but also brings a lot of economic benefits
to local dwellers. Because of its reformation, the city is changing fast too

. Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the questions.
When the era of digital technology has bloomed all over the world, human beings have witnessed
thousands of wonderful inventions which can be applied in a variety of fields. Among those, robots
are considered as a brilliant human creativity and have been developed further to serve people.
Shaped into human bodies, robots are machines built to do tasks. Normally, they can be controlled
by built-in computers so that they can do a series of automatic actions. These human-like
machines help us explore new places, and uncover the mystery of the deep and cold ocean which
is very dangerous for a normal body. They seem to play an unlimited role not only in exploration,

but in medical fields as well. In hospitals, they can do a wide range of jobs in cooperation with
doctors to improve the health care system. For instance, robots can assist physicians remotely to
check on patients and even inspect them. They can search around hospitals to collect information
about the sick and transmit it to the doctors through a screen to help them interact efficiently. With
cutting-edge technology they can even do an operation with a high level of accuracy under
professionals' control. Thanks to robotic assistants, medical workers can save time and save many
lives from fatal diseases. It is believed that the number of robots applied in the medical industry will
be expected to increase dramatically over the next few years.

Adele has been one of the world's most well-known singers and songwriters in recent years. Born
in North London in 1988, Adele started singing at a young age and she was mostly influenced by
the Spice Girls. At the age of 16, Adele composed her first hit song, "Hometown Glory".
When she was a student at the British School for Performing Arts and Technology, she recorded
three songs for a class project. All these songs later were posted on MySpace.com and became
very popular. As a result, she was offered a record deal from XL Recordings after her graduation.
Her first album "19" debuted at number one on the British charts in 2008.
In March 2008, she did a short tour in America and soon her international career began. In 2011,
