IV.阅读理解
A
Science
fiction
paints
a
future
where
robots
play
an
important
part
in
everyday
life.
A
technology
firm
is
trying
to
make
that
future
a
reality
today
with
an
affordable
robot
called
Artibo.
Artibo
is
small.
Its
brain,
or
AI
block,
is
a
cube
(立方体)that
fits
in
your
hand.
That
block
connects
to
a
motor
block
and
two
silicon
wheels.
Assembled,
it’s
about
four
inches
tall.
Artibo
is
much
more
than
just
a
robot
that
you
program
to
move
around.
Artibo’s
designers
want
it
to
provide
companionship
and
be
a
resource
for
learning
coding.
With
its
camera,
microphone
and
connection
to
a
cloud-based
AI,
it
can
respond
to
voice
commands
or
function
like
a
walkie-talkie(对讲机).
It
talks
like
a
chatbot
and
can
tell
bedtime
stories.
It
can
even
help
you
learn
other
languages!
Artibo
isn’t
quite
ready
for
stores
yet,
though.
It’s
part
of
a
crowdfunding
project.
Crowdfunding
is
a
program
where
you
put
a
request
online
to
a
crowd
of
people.
Supporters
can
then
pay
large
or
small
amounts
to
help
you
finish
a
project.
Artibo
will
first
be
available
to
people
who
have
paid
to
help
bring
it
into
production.
Using
computer
code
to
program
your
own
toys
is
nothing
new.
LEGO
first
released
a
robot
kit
in
1998.
Since
then,
programmable
robots
have
become
one
of
the
best-selling
units
in
the
LEGO
product
line.
Programming
robots
might
sound
comparable
to
rocket
science,
but
anyone
can
program
one
using
nothing
more
than
a
tablet
or
a
smartphone
and
code
blocks.
Code
blocks
allow
you
to
program
simple
or
complex
commands
by
assembling
visual
blocks
of
code
on
the
canvas
(
画
布
)of
a
computer
screen.
Just
drag
and
drop
a
variety
of
code
blocks
from
a
programming
menu
link
them
together,
and
watch
how
your
robot
responds.
In
Artibo’s
case
coding
doesn’t
stop
there.
Unlike
other
similar
programmable
toys,
Artibo
will
also
allow
you
to
write
your
own
code.
So
as
your
familiarity
with
coding
increases,
you
won’t
lose
interest
in
Artibo.
1.
According
to
the
passage,
the
purpose
of
developing
Artibo
is______.

A.
helping
people
learn
anything
they
want
and
providing
companionship
B.
providing
a
robot
that
can
move,
accompany
and
help
people
learn
coding
C.
chatting
with
people,
telling
bedtime
stories
and
supplying
languages
D.
helping
people
raise
money
on
line
and
creating
programmable
robots
2.
What
can
be
concluded
from
the
passage
A.
Programming
robots
is
not
really
complicated.
B.
Programming
robots
is
advanced
like
a
rocket.
C.
Programming
robots
can
be
used
in
smartphones.
D.
Programming
robots
used
in
toys
is
not
new
at
all.
3.
The
passage
implies
that______.

A.
people
can
program
various
orders
even
without
code
blocks
B.
anyone
can
control
Artibo
freely
unlike
other
programming
toys
C.
the
more
familiar
you’re
with
coding,
the
more
you’ll
like
Artibo
D.
artibo
is
popular
in
the
world
especially
among
young
people
B
For
several
decades,
there
has
been
an
extensive
and
organized
campaign
intended
to
generate
distrust
in
science,
funded
by
regulated
industries
and
libertarian
think
tanks(自由主义智囊团)whose
interests
and
beliefs
are
threatened
by
the
findings
of
modern
science.
In
response,
scientists
have
tended
to
stress
the
success
of
science.
After
all,
scientists
have
been
right
about
most
things,
from
the
structure
of
the
universe
to
the
relativity
of
time
and
space.
Quoting
successes
isn’t
wrong,
but
for
many
people
it’s
not
persuasive.
What
is
typically
declared
to
be
the
scientific
method—develop
a
supposition,
then
design
an
experiment
to
test
it—isn’t
what
scientists
actually
do.
Science
is
active
so
that
new
methods
get
invented
and
old
ones
get
abandoned.
The
scientific
method
doesn’t
always
work.
False
theories
can
produce
true
results,
so
even
if
an
experiment
works,
it
doesn’t
prove
that
the
theory
it
was
designed
to
test
is
true.
If
there
is
no
identifiable
scientific
method
then
what
is
the
guarantee
for
trust
in
science
The
answer
is
the
methods
by
which
those
claims
are
evaluated.
A
scientific
claim
is
never
accepted
as
true
until
it
has
gone
through
a
long
process
of
examination
by
fellow
scientists.
Until
this
point,
scientific
feedback
is
typically
fairly
friendly.
But
the
next
step
is
different:
once
the
paper
is
ready,
it
is
presented
to
a
scientific
journal,
where
things
get
a
whole
lot
tougher.
Editors
deliberately
send
scientific
papers
to
people
who
are
not
friends
or
colleagues
of
the
authors,
and
the
job
of
the
reviewers
is
to
find
errors
or
other
inadequacies.
We
call
this
process
“peer
review”
because
the
reviewers
are
scientific
peers
but
they
act
in
the
role
of
a
superior
who
has
both
the
right
and
the
obligation
to
find
fault.
It
is
only
after
the
reviewers
and
the
editor
are
satisfied
that
any
problems
have
been
fixed
that
the
paper
is
accepted
for
publication
and
enters
the
body
of
“science.
”
Does
this
process
ever
go
wrong
Of
course.
Scientists
are
human.
But
if
we
look
carefully
at
historical
cases
where
science
went
wrong,
typically
there
was
no
agreement
reached
by
all.
Some
people
argue
that
we
should
not
trust
science
because
scientists
are
“always
changing
their
minds”.
While
examples
of
truly
settled
science
being
overturned
are
far
fewer
than
is
sometimes
claimed,
they
do
exist.
But
the
beauty
of
this
scientific
process
is
that
it
explains
what
might
otherwise
appear
paradoxical(矛盾的):
that
science
produces
both
novelty(新颖性)and
stability.
New
observations,
ideas,
interpretations
introduce
novelty:
transformative
questioning
leads
to
collective
decisions
and
the
stability
of
scientific
knowledge.
Scientists
do
change
their
minds
in
the
face
of
new
evidence,
but
this
is
a
strength
of
science,
not
a
weakness.
1.
Distrust
in
science
has
been
found
because
______.

A.
scientists’
citing
successes
isn’t
persuasive
for
many
people
to
some
extent
B.
most
scientists
have
tended
to
lay
too
much
emphasis
on
the
success
of
science
C.
a
wide-ranging
and
organized
campaign
has
been
founded
in
some
industries
and
think
tanks
D.
someone’s
benefits
and
beliefs
are
endangered
by
the
findings
of
modern
science
2.
Which
of
the
following
statements
will
the
author
agree
with
about
a
scientific
method
A.
A
scientific
method
doesn’t
necessarily
take
effect
because
science
is
changing.
B.
A
scientific
method
is
not
right
because
it
isn’t
what
scientists
actually
do.
C.
A
successful
experiment
can
guarantee
the
truthfulness
of
a
claim
by
a
scientific
method.
D.
True
theories
can
produce
false
results
because
the
scientific
method
doesn’t
work.
3.
What
purpose
does
“peer
review”
in
evaluating
a
scientific
claim
mainly
serve
A.
The
scientific
claim
can
be
completely
accepted
by
the
reviewers
in
the
same
field.
B.
The
scientific
peers
can
draw
right
conclusions
by
finding
its
faults
or
other
inadequacies.
C.
The
scientific
claim
can
be
published
and
recognized
as
true
in
science.
D.
The
scientific
paper
can
be
successfully
submitted
to
a
scientific
journal.
4.
It
can
be
inferred
from
the
last
paragraph
that
______.

A.
not
all
the
claims
about
the
falsehood
of
well-established
science
lead
to
its
being
overturned
B.
it
is
inevitable
that
science
sometimes
goes
wrong
because
it
appears
paradoxical
C.
the
beauty
of
science
lies
in
the
paradox
of
being
both
novel
and
stable
D.
science
is
not
trustful
because
scientists
always
change
their
minds
V.七选五
　　Friends
should
always
be
honest
with
you,
right
So
when
they
lie,
it
can
be
really
hard
to
take.
You
want
to
trust
your
friends
and
that
means
knowing
that
they’ll
tell
it
to
you
straight
no
matter
what
it
is.
　1　Why
does
this
happen

　2　
One
of
the
biggest
reasons
friends
lie
is
simply
to
avoid
hurting
your
feelings.
Some
people
don’t
understand
the
difference
between
being
gently
honest
with
a
friend
and
being
so
straightforward
that
they
leave
a
verbal
wound.
They
choose
to
avoid
these
two
extremes
in
the
form
of
a
lie.
They
feel
embarrassed.
Sometimes
friends
will
lie
about
things
in
their
life
because
they
are
too
embarrassed
to
admit
the
truth.
Maybe
they
are
going
through
a
rough
time
and
they
just
don’t
want
you
to
know
about
it.
Avoid
trying
to
badger
(
纠
缠
)
your
friends
into
telling
you
what’s
wrong.
　3　
Avoid
an
argument
with
you.
Perhaps
your
friends
know
that
if
they
tell
you
the
truth,
you’ll
get
angry
with
them.
Make
sure
that
if
a
friend
tells
you
something
unpleasant,
you
don’t
overact.
　4　If
you
do
end
up
arguing,
do
it
in
a
respectable
way.

Exclude
you.
Lying
isn’t
always
a
sign
that
friends
are
trying
to
protect
you,
however.
　5　When
you
find
out
with
certainty
that
your
friend
is
lying
to
you,
try
and
face
it.
If
you
feel
your
friend
is
lying
because
he
or
she
doesn’t
want
to
be
around
you,
that’s
your
wake-up
to
move
on.

A.
Protect
your
feelings.
B.
They
want
to
be
your
closer
friends.
C.
But
a
friend
who
lies
isn’t
always
trying
to
hurt
you.
D.
Consider
what’s
being
said
and
why
your
friend
is
telling
you
this.
E.
Being
honest
and
making
a
sincere
effort
can
keep
the
friendship
strong.
F.
Sometimes
they
lie
because
they
don’t
want
you
to
be
included
in
their
plans.
G.
Instead,
make
it
clear
that
you
are
there
for
them
when
and
if
they
are
ready
to
talk.

1.
dishes。考查名词复数。此处用名词复数泛指中国菜。
2.
who/that。考查定语从句。先行词指人,
故用who/that
引导定语从句,
并在从句中作主语。
3.
it。考查代词。it作形式主语,
不定式to
eat
out为真正的主语。
4.
visiting。考查非谓语动词。remember
doing
sth.
“记得做过某事”,
为固定搭配。
5.
was
shocked。考查时态和语态。此处动作与后面的when
I
learnt.

发生时间一致,
应为过去时;
I
和shock之间为被动关系,
指“我”感到震惊,
故此处为过去时的被动语态。
6.
have
become。考查时态。根据后面的时间状语in
recent
years可知,
此处应该用现在完成时。

A
1.【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第二段中Artibo
is
much
more
than
just
a
robot
that
you
program
to
move
around.
Artibo’s
designers
want
it
to
provide
companionship
and
be
a
resource
for
learning
coding.
阿蒂博不仅仅是一个你可以随意移动的机器人。阿蒂博的设计者希望它能提供陪伴,
并成为学习编程的资源。可知阿蒂博机器人不仅能移动,
也能提供陪伴,
帮助学习编程。故选B项。
2.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第四段中Programming
robots
might
sound
comparable
to
rocket
science,
but
anyone
can
program
one
using
nothing
more
than
a
tablet
or
a
smartphone
and
code
blocks.
编程机器人可能听起来像火箭科学,
但任何人都可以用平板电脑或智能手机和代码块为机器人编程。可知,
编程机器人真的并不复杂。故选A项。
3.【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段中Unlike
other
similar
programmable
toys,
Artibo
will
also
allow
you
to
write
your
own
code.
So
as
your
familiarity
with
coding
increases,
you
won’t
lose
interest
in
Artibo.
与其他类似的可编程玩具不同,
阿蒂博还允许你编写自己的代码。因此,
随着你对编码的熟悉程度的增加,
你不会对阿蒂博失去兴趣。可知,
你对编码越熟悉,
就越喜欢阿蒂博。故选C项。
B
1.【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知,
几十年来,
有一个广泛的、有组织的运动,
目的是产生对科学的不信任,
由受管制的行业和自由主义智囊团资助,
他们的利益和信仰受到现代科学发现的威胁。由此可知,
人们发现对科学的不信任是因为某些人的利益和信仰受到现代科学发现的威胁,
故D项正确。
2.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Science
is
active
so
that
new
methods
get
invented
and
old
ones
get
abandoned.
The
scientific
method
doesn’t
always
work.
”科学是活跃的,
新方法被发明,
旧方法被抛弃,
所以科学的方法并不总是有效的。可知,
作者可能会同意“科学方法不一定有效,
因为科学正在发生变化”这一说法,
故A项正确。
3.【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的最后两句“我们称这个过程为同行评审,
因为评审人员是科学上的同行,
但是他们扮演着上级的角色,
有权利也有义务找出错误,
只有在审稿人和编辑满意之后,
任何问题都得到了解决,
论文才会被接受发表并进入科学领域。”可知,
在评估一项科学声明时,
同行评审的主要目的是说明这一科学论断可以在科学领域上发表并被认为是正确的,
故C项正确。
4.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While
examples
of
truly
settled
science
being
overturned
are
far
fewer
than
is
sometimes
claimed,
they
do
exist.
”虽然真正解决的科学被推翻的例子比有时声称的要少得多,
但它们确实存在。可知,
并非所有关于公认科学的谬误的说法都会导致它被推翻,
故A项正确。

isn’t
always
a

around
you,
that’s
your
wake-up
