七、阅读理解
What’s going to happen in the future Will robots control our planet Will computers become smarter than us Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10-30 years from now, according to the BBC.
Bionic（仿生的）Eyes
They are no longer something, only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to see things clearly—by wearing bionic eyes.
A blind eye can no longer sense sight, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send information to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A bionic eye with very clear pictures could be just in a few years away.
Digital Money
We used to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now we can use Wechat Pay or Alipay to shop, money is spent without seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. People only need to take a mobile phone wherever they go. Using these ways is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.
It is reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be the next.
Self-driving Cars
Unlike a human driver a self-driving car won’t be influenced by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors（探测器）and cameras on the car would allow it to follow the rules of the road strictly and keep a safe space from other cars. This would greatly make the number of road accidents smaller. You can even take a short rest while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.
1. Which of the following payments is not mentioned in this passage
A. Cash B. Wechat Pay C. Alipay D. Credit card
2. Bionic eyes send information to the________.
A. mind B. camera C. computer D. heart
3. From the report, we can learn some information about________.
A. industry and farming B. traffic and journey
C. science and technology D. culture and art
4. The passage tells us that________.
A. bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction films
B. the blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future
C. self-driving cars will be influenced by something outside
D. there will be no accidents at all if self-driving cars are used
5 We can infer（推断）that________ from the passage.
A. there would be a number of self-driving cars on the road
B. robots would control the world
C. the blind could use glasses to see things around
D. we would live a hard life with digital money
【答案】1. D 2. A 3. C 4. B 5. A
【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲的是科学家认为10—30年后最有可能发生的几件事情：盲人会有仿生眼；数字货币；无人驾驶车。
1.细节理解题。根据“We used to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now we can use Wechat Pay or Alipay to shop, money is spent without seeing it.”可知，这里提到了现金，微信支付，支付宝支付，没有提到信用卡支付，故选D。
2.细节理解题。根据“but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send information to the mind.”可知，仿生眼可以使用相机“看到”环境，并向大脑发送信息。故选A。
3.细节理解题。综合全文的“仿生眼”“数字货币”“无人驾驶车”可知，这些都和科学技术有关，故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据“A bionic eye with very clear pictures could be just in a few years away.”（拥有清晰图像的仿生眼可能会在几年内问世）可推断，佩戴仿生眼的盲人将来可能看得更清楚，故选B。
5.推理判断题。根据“ In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.”（在未来，无人驾驶汽车将被广泛接受）可推断，路上将会有很多无人驾驶的汽车，故选A。

Digital Money
We used to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now we can use Wechat Pay or Alipay to shop, money is spent without seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. People only need to take a mobile phone wherever they go. Using these ways is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.
It is reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be the next.
Self-driving Cars
Unlike a human driver a self-driving car won’t be influenced by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors（探测器）and cameras on the car would allow it to follow the rules of the road strictly and keep a safe space from other cars. This would greatly make the number of road accidents smaller. You can even take a short rest while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.
