九、阅读理解
A
People began to make robots about several hundred years ago. In the past, some of the early ones looked like animals or humans. However, they couldn’t talk and were pretty dumb. They worked like clocks and did the same things over and over again.
Now modern robots don’t always look like people. Some are like big machines; others are nothing but long arms attached to boxy(箱子般四四方方的)bodies. However, modern robots are smart. Some can solve problems on their own. Their brains are computers and their eyes are sensors(传感器). Motors(发动机)help them move.
In the future, robots will learn from their mistakes more than they do now. They will be smarter. It’s possible that we will have robot judges, robot household workers, and robot factory workers. Robots will help people to do more things.
1. How long is the history of robots
A. Hundreds of years. B. Several hundred years.
C. Seven hundred years. D. A hundred year.
2 . What’s the possible meaning of dumb
A. Talking like people. B. Clever.

3. Most robots look like people ______ .
A. in the past B. clever
C. in the future D. all the time

Is it good or bad to use WeChat Pay Will people no longer use paper money in the future Some discussions appear on the Internet.

Steven said, “WeChat Pay is convenient (便利的) and safe. We needn’t tell if the money is real or fake. But paper money is just the opposite. We should encourage people to use WeChat Pay more.”
“For a long time, people will use different payment ways,” said Sunshine. “Traders should allow people to choose the ways they like to pay.”

九、阅读理解
A
People began to make robots about several hundred years ago. In the past, some of the early ones looked like animals or humans. However, they couldn’t talk and were pretty dumb. They worked like clocks and did the same things over and over again.
Now modern robots don’t always look like people. Some are like big machines; others are nothing but long arms attached to boxy(箱子般四四方方的)bodies. However, modern robots are smart. Some can solve problems on their own. Their brains are computers and their eyes are sensors(传感器). Motors(发动机)help them move.
In the future, robots will learn from their mistakes more than they do now. They will be smarter. It’s possible that we will have robot judges, robot household workers, and robot factory workers. Robots will help people to do more things.
