That’s what you should do.” __2__ when she got to the Ohio State University, she took biology, anatomy, and chemistry, and started studying to be a vet.
A Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship allowed her to spend her __3__ year studying abroad in Manchester, England.

I don’t want to be a vet!”
__6__ she thought back over all the things she’d done in her life and what had made her happy. And then it hit her — it was all of the youth leadership conferences that she had volunteered __7__, and the communications and leadership courses she had taken as elective courses back at Ohio State. “How could I have been so __8__? Here I am in my fourth year at school and just finally realizing I’m on the __9__ path. I just never took the time to __10__ it until now,” she thought.

1.A.surgeon        B.doctor
C.vet D.nurse
解析:选C surgeon意为“外科医生”;doctor意为“医生”;vet意为“兽医”;nurse意为“护士”。根据第一句“Emily was a very big fan of animals ...”和第一段最后的“and started studying to be a vet”可知此处表示:你应该成为一名兽医,故C项正确。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
We can find robots everywhere. Robots build cars, play chess and can clean your house. They may drive your car in the near future. Two robots, named Spirit and Opportunity, were sent to Mars on a mission (任务) to explore the red planet. Robots also help people in natural disasters. They are used in search and rescue operations following an earthquake or a nuclear accident.
In most cases, robots are sent to places considered to be unsafe. The problem is that all of those types of situations are extremely unpredictable and unfriendly. And it is very likely that robots in those situations become damaged. When a dog loses a leg, the animal eventually finds the best way to get around on three legs. In a short time, the dog learns to deal with its physical disability. Now, scientists have developed robots that behave in the same way.
Jeff Clune, a computer scientist, is developing the latest and advanced technology so that robots will continue operating after the first sign of injury. He wants the machines to have the ability to analyze the cause and change to continue performing until they can be repaired.
The researchers have added one more operation to the skill set of robots working under complicated conditions. They programmed a hexapod robot with six legs and a robotic arm. Their findings were reported in the journal Nature. Once the hexapod robots become damaged, they can use their own knowledge of how their body works to find a solution.
The hexapod robots are also programmed with child-like curiosity. In other words, they are always asking questions and looking for the answers. The whole process just takes about a minute for the robots to overcome the damage and continue to carry out the task.
语篇解读:如今,机器人无处不在,它们被应用于各个领域。科学家们正在研发一种新的技术,使机器人遭到损坏时能够迅速做出改变并继续执行任务。

2.According to Jeff Clune, the new technology ________.
A.helps robots deal with the damage
B.protects robots from serious harm
C.makes robots have self-repair ability
D.allows robots to realize possible danger
解析:选A 细节理解题。由第三段可知,杰夫正在开发研究新技术使机器人在受损后能够分析原因并做出改变以继续执行任务。
3.What can we infer about the hexapod robots?
A.The idea of them is from Nature.
B.They can sense people’s feelings.
C.They look like children in appearance.
D.They can make changes in a very short time.
解析:选D 推理判断题。由第四、五段可知,六足机器人能够找到方法以克服损伤并继续执行任务,整个过程大约只需要一分钟的时间。
4.What’s the best title for the text?
A.How to use robots properly
B.Robots are helpful to humans
C.Damaged robots learn to keep working
D.The development of the hexapod robot

二、勤练高考题型,多练自能生巧
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Some people are pessimistic (悲观的) when they think about the future. They say that, a hundred years from now, we will have used most of the earth's resources. We will have polluted our seas badly, and be unable to eat fish from them. We will have made the air so dirty that we will need to wear masks. The world's population will have doubled, and we will have used all the countryside for housing; there will be no farmland left.
Other people believe that man adapts very easily. They have a different idea of the future. How, in their views, will people be living in a hundred years' time?
One architect (建筑师) believes that man will move off the land. He suggests that the city of the future will be a huge, pyramid-shaped (金字塔形的) building, which will be floating on the surface of the sea. About 5,000 families will be living there, and the building will contain shops and schools as well as homes. By living on the sea, we will give farmers more land to grow crops.
As for oil, people will no longer need it: we will be heating our homes with power from the sun. And we will not be short of minerals, because there are plenty under our oceans. At the moment, we do not have the technology to get them out. But, in a hundred years' time, the optimists say, the new sea cities will be using these resources.
What will be in the shops in the year 3000? What will people be wearing? How will people be traveling?
Scientists who make predictions about the future suggest that, by the year 3000, shops will no longer exist. Computers will have replaced them; and people will order goods from home.
People will be wearing very light, thin clothes. By this time, scientists will have invented a fabric (织物) that keeps us cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather.
As for travel, the experts say that most people will be using public transport. Electric cars will be traveling through the streets day and night. Anybody will be able to stop one and use it.
An interesting picture. Unfortunately, we will not be there to see if these predictions come true.
语篇解读:本文主要介绍了人们对未来生活的不同看法以及人们对未来生活的预测。
1.Pessimists believe that in the future ________.
A.the seas and oceans will be full of houses
B.we'll have used up all the resources
C.we will not have enough fish to eat from the seas
D.we will have polluted the air so badly that it will be impossible for us to breathe
解析:选D 细节理解题。由文章第一段的第四句“We will have made ... to wear masks.”可知,悲观的人认为一百年之后,因为空气受到严重污染,人们必须要戴着面具,故D项正确。A项是一位建筑师的假想,不符合题干要求;B项应为大部分资源被用完而非全部;C项应为海水因受到污染导致鱼不能食用,故排除。
2.Optimists suggest that in the future ________.
A.all the land will be too polluted to be cropped on
B.pyramids will be most commonly-used houses
C.people will be using the power from the sun instead of oil
D.we will be short of materials even though we get them from under the oceans
解析:选C 细节理解题。由文章第四段第一句可知,人们将不再使用石油,而是利用太阳能来取暖。其他选项与原文不符。
3.Scientists have made the predictions EXCEPT ________.
A.electric cars will be going along the streets continuously
B.the resources under the oceans will never be used up
C.people will order goods from home
D.people won't suffer from cold any longer
解析:选B 细节理解题。文章最后四段是科学家的推测。倒数第二段第二句提到日夜运作的电车;倒数第四段末句提到人们将在家中订购物品;倒数第三段末句提到新发明的织物会使我们觉得冬暖夏凉;只有B项文中未提及。
Ⅱ.语法填空
Many people believe that they just have bad memories, and that there's little they can do to improve their memories, __1__ is actually not true. There are many ways to improve memory when your __2__ (able) to remember seems poor.
As far as exercising is concerned, aerobic exercises (有氧运动) like walking, biking, swimming, and dancing are probably the most helpful. These improve your memory by __3__ (give) you more oxygen, and oxygen is __4__ brain cells grow healthily upon.
There is another thing that you need to pay attention to: enough sleep. A recent study __5__ (do) among students suggested that those who often stay up generally have __6__ (low) grade point averages than those who get enough sleep before tests, where “enough” is defined as __7__ least eight hours a night.
Though your brain is not a muscle, it __8__ (usual) works like one. You must keep using it and testing it __9__ (keep) your memory sharp. Give yourself tests and challenges, like memorizing short poems and bits of information. Reading is also __10__ good way to stay mentally active, which is important for improving memory.
语篇解读:本文介绍了提高记忆力的几种方法。
1.which 考查关系词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,指代主句内容,且在从句中作主语,故填which。
2.ability 考查名词。设空处前有your限定,故填ability。
3.giving 考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处作介词by的宾语,故填giving。
4.what 考查连接词。设空处引导表语从句,且在从句中作介词upon的宾语,指物,故填what。
5.done 考查过去分词作定语的用法。设空处作后置定语修饰study,因do与study之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且do所表示的动作已完成,故填done。
6.lower 考查形容词的比较级。由语境及后面的than可知,此处表示比较,故填lower。
7.at 考查介词。at least意为“至少”。
8.usually 考查副词。设空处作状语修饰works,故填副词usually。
9.to keep 考查不定式作状语的用法。设空处作状语,表目的,You与keep之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,且keep所表示的动作尚未发生,故填to keep。
10.a 考查不定冠词。way是单数可数名词,且在此表泛指,故填a。

2018高考英语一轮练习:人教必修五U3【D】含解析
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet (彗星) is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.
On 17 July, a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth's atmosphere with a massive explosion. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.
Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won't escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, and temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won't be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then about 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn't live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?
语篇解读:文章主要描述了2094年如果一颗彗星的碎片撞向地球,人类可能面临终结。
1.What is mainly described in the passage?
A.A historical discovery. B.An event of imagination.
C.A research on space. D.A scientific adventure.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第一段的时间2094以及下文的内容可知,文章描述了人类在2094年可能会遭遇的灾难。这些事情只是一种想象而已。
2.When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes ________.
A.an earthquake       B.damages to cities
C.an Earth explosion D.huge waves
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole.”可知答案。
3.Why can't the northern half of the earth escape for long?
A.Because the land is covered with water.
B.Because the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth.
C.Because people there can not live at the temperature of zero.
D.Because wars break out among countries.
解析:选B 推理判断题。文章第三段中提到,南半球的数以百万计的人已经死了,而北半球也逃脱不了这种厄运。因为太阳照不到地球,地球上的温度几乎降到了零度。庄稼遭到了破坏,食物缺乏导致战争的爆发。所以,一切的根源在于B项所提到的事情。
4.By giving the example of dinosaurs, the author tries to prove ________.
A.animals could not live in the cold climate
B.what happened 65 million years ago was an invented story
C.the human beings will die out in 2094
D.the Earth could be hit by other objects in space
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Could it really happen?”以及“Will we meet the same end?”两个问题的提出可知,作者是想通过举恐龙这一例子说明地球很有可能再次遭遇撞击。
B
As an oceanographer (海洋学家), I've spent many years developing robots to explore the ocean, and now we're putting that technology to use in our JASON Project, a program that's designed to inspire students and get them interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. In theaters throughout the country, we bring kids together and send back to them on large screens our live explorations of large areas of the globe. Not only are the kids observers, but they can operate robots moving across the area while broadcasting images back to them. The kids have the sensation (感受) of really being at the site with us.
I believe advances in robot technology will one day be the key to a new kind of travel. In the next 10 or 15 years, people will have rooms in their houses that will be able to simulate (模拟) other environments. I like to call these rooms “home domes” — small theaters with screens and advanced equipment that can reproduce the sights, sounds, smells, and feel of a desert, or a forest. Hand in hand with these rooms, I can see a market for travel robots located in countries around the world. You could rent (租) a robot working in a rain forest, then go into your home dome, where you yourself operate the robot's movements. The equipment in the room will receive the sensations in the robot's environment and simulate them for you.
Today, much of the world's population never travels more than 50 or 60 miles from home. And even a person with enough time can see only a part of the earth's sights. But this new way of travel will cost so much less in both time and money and allow people to see a lot more of the globe. And simulated travel will also help protect our planet. You can't take large groups of tourists to look at Dian Fossey's gorillas (大猩猩). But a small robot, with no animal smell, can get very close to a gorilla and send the sights, sounds, and smells back to a million people.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一种新型旅游方式——利用机器人模拟真实场景,让人们足不出户感受自然风光。
5.The main purpose of the JASON Project is to ________.
A.design robots B.educate children
C.explore the world D.improve technology
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第一段的“that's designed to inspire students and get them interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics”可知,JASON Project主要是为了培养孩子对科学、技术、工程和数学的兴趣,即该项目起教育作用。
6.Without going outside, people in “home domes” can ________.
A.enjoy a guided trip B.get very close to nature
C.develop and operate robots D.send images back to scientists
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段可知,作者把利用机器人技术模拟自然环境的房间称为“home domes”,人们在这样的房间里可以足不出户亲近大自然。
7.What's the author's attitude towards the future of robot technology?
A.Uncaring. B.Doubtful.
C.Hopeful. D.Dissatisfied.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第二段的“I believe advances in robot technology will one day be the key to a new kind of travel.”和“I can see a market for travel robots located in countries around the world”可知,作者对机器人技术在新型旅游中的应用充满希望。
8.According to the text, simulated travel ________.
A.has been widely accepted
B.costs lots of time and money
C.is harmful to the environment
D.is time- and money-saving
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“this new way of travel will cost so much less in both time and money ... simulated travel will also help protect our planet.”可知,模拟旅游省时省钱。
C
These are some ideas that some people came up with about what the life will be like in the year 2500.
We will have established a base on the moon. School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly. We will have found cures (疗法) for AIDS and cancer. The war will have ended and peace flows freely through the land. Kids will learn more and be smarter than ever before! History will be the main subject at school. Cafeteria (自助餐厅) food will be delicious! You just walk up to a machine, stick out your tongue, and it will scan your taste buds (味蕾) to see what you want to eat.
— Kristen
Here I am in the wonderful year of 2500 and life is so easy. I work in a pet store and it is so hard! I have to wake up at midnight every day and fly my car to the store. It takes so long to get there. It takes me 20 seconds to get to the store in Mississippi from my home in Florida! At work, I have to push 5 buttons and then I go home. It takes 2 seconds and that is like forever.
— Morgan
In the year 2500, I think we will have invented cars that run on things we don't need like garbage. Tail gas will smell like whatever you like such as chocolate. I also predict that buildings will be able to go into a different dimension (维) so your car won't hit them. The cars in 2500 don't fly, for we haven't got that technology yet, but they can hover (盘旋) up to seven feet. These cars are made for speed!
— Carly
Instead of cars, we may have hovering devices that float around. We could also have electric cars instead of gas-powered cars. Food might be more healthy. What I believe is that the environment will change the most. The environmental changes will also determine many other changes. If more people try to help the environment, then perhaps in 2500 we will have more forests and wildlife. If people won't help the environment, then we will have no forests and little wildlife left.
— Roberta
语篇解读:2500年的生活会是什么样子呢?人们对它展开了丰富的想象。
9.According to Kristen, what will happen in 2500?
A.English will be the main subject at school.
B.Students can go to the moon every week.
C.Cafeteria will replace other restaurants.
D.AIDS and cancer will disappear.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章中克里斯滕所说的话“School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly.”可知B项为正确答案。
10.Morgan thinks his work in the pet store is ________.
A.difficult B.meaningless
C.important D.easy
解析:选D 推理判断题。文章中摩根对他工作的具体描述使用的是反语,他真实的意思是“这份工作太轻松了”。他的第一句话也是对该意思的提示,故选D项。
11.Who mainly tells the reader of the cars in 2500?
A.Kristen. B.Morgan.
C.Carly. D.Roberta.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据文章中卡力所说的那段话可知,他主要谈到的是2500年的汽车,包括汽车的燃料、废气及功能等,故选C项。
12.Roberta thinks that in 2500 ________.
A.the environment will have changed a lot
B.there will be more wildlife and forests
C.the environment will be seriously damaged
D.cars will run on solar power and electricity
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据文章中罗伯塔所说的那段话可知,她所坚信的是环境一定会变化很大,或往好的方面变化,或往坏的方面变化。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
You are going places
It was another boring and sad day. I had come home from school, changed my clothes and got ready for work. I work at a local restaurant as a busser (餐厅侍者助手).
__1__ And to make matters worse I was busing that evening. It's the same thing over and over again. Dealing with customers who complain about their food, where they are sitting and whether the piece of pie that they are served is too big or too small. __2__ Though it's annoying (恼人的), we all have to learn to deal with it.
__3__ It happened to be the very area where I bused and kept the dirty dishes in the bins. These elderly women watched how I was busing and working really hard to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers.
When they had finished their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me for a while about school, how I was doing, and what grade I was in. __4__
As they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a confident and gentle voice,“You are going places.” And that was it. They left the restaurant and I was pretty surprised. __5__ They raised my spirits and gave me a reason to keep on working hard and to give it my all.
A.I know I have got used to it.
B.I went to work feeling down.
C.They also asked what I planned to do in the future.
D.I had been busing since 5:00 pm and we were quite busy.
E.Little things like that always annoy a lot of our employees.
F.Three elderly ladies walked in and sat at a table by the windows.
G.I had tears in my eyes, because they gave me a reason to believe in myself.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了三位老太太的鼓励让作者不再低沉,开始相信自己。
1.选B 由第一段中的“It was another boring and sad day.”以及该空后的“And to make matters worse ...”可知,作者去上班,感觉很糟糕。
2.选E 由该空前的“Dealing with customers ... too big or too small.”以及该空后的“Though it's annoying ...”可知,设空处指“像这样的小事往往会惹恼我们很多员工”。
3.选F 由该段中的“These elderly women watched ...”以及下文的描述可知,F项“三位老太太走进来,坐在靠窗户的桌子旁”符合此处语境。
4.选C 由该空前的“They talked to me for a while ... what grade I was in.”可知,她们还问“我”计划以后做什么。
5.选G 由该空后的“They raised my spirits ... keep on working hard and to give it my
all.”可知,“我”的眼中充满泪水,因为她们给了“我”相信自己的理由。

听力材料
(Text 1)
W:I don’t understand how you got a ticket. I thought you were a careful driver.
M:I usually am, but I thought I could get through the crossing before the lights turned red. I was driving too fast so I hit a car.
(Text 2)
W:Can you tell me how much it costs to repair the TV set?
M:Well, the set is very old. It’ll cost about 100 pounds. However, a new one may cost you 120 pounds more or less. So it’s not worth repairing.
(Text 3)
W:How many people are they interviewing?
M:They interviewed sixteen the first time, and now four of us were chosen to go back for the second interview.
W:I hope it goes well. Good luck. I hope you can get the job.
(Text 4)
M:The guests are leaving for New York today on the 11 o’clock flight. It’s too late. So there will be no bus then. We need someone to get them to the airport on time.
W:I’d be happy to, but my car is under repair now.
M:In that case, we have to call a taxi.
(Text 5)
W:Mary and I are going to the concert. Do you want to come, too?
M:Sorry, but I’m meeting Jane. She’s writing an article and she has asked me to help collect materials for it.
W:An article? About what?
M:Oh, just old churches. Anyway, I’ll see her at the library at half past two.
(Text 6)
W:Sunshine Hotel, may I help you?
M:Yes, I’m phoning up because I have booked a room for an overseas visitor who won’t be able to come now and so I’ll have to cancel it, I’m afraid.
W:What is the name, please?
M:It was a double room booked in the name of Dr. R. Sun from January 14th, for a week.
W:Ah, yes, I’ve got it. And now you want to change the booking, do you?
M:I wish I could, but it now appears that he won’t be able to come at all.
W:Well, sir, I’ll cancel it then. I hope we can help you some other time.
(Text 7)
W:Dr. Carter’s Office.
M:I’d like to make an appointment with Dr. Carter, please.
W:Okay. Could I have your name please?
M:Yes. My name is Ronald Schuller.
W:And may I ask who referred you to our office?
M:Uh, I drove past your office yesterday and I saw your number.
W:Okay. How about the day after tomorrow on Wednesday at 4 o’clock?
M:Uh. Do you happen to have an opening in the morning? I usually pick up my kids from school around that time.
W:Okay. How about Tuesday or Thursday at 8:00 am?
M:Can it be earlier, like 7:30?
W:No. I’m sorry.
M:Well, in that case, Thursday would be fine.
(Text 8)
W:Look! Here is the information about the evening courses.
M:Flower arranging. That’s a real course? Why would someone want to do that?
W:You watch TV for 3 hours every Saturday and many people find that boring too.
M:OK, relax. Let’s see what else is there.
W:Photography. That looks interesting.
M:But look at the price. I don’t think I can afford it. Web design is pretty cheap. What do you think?
W:I don’t want to work on the computer in the evening.
M:Hey, look, how about Indian cooking? It starts this week. A little bit expensive.
W:You know how much I love Indian food. I’ll call them tomorrow to see if they want new students.
M:OK.
(Text 9)
W:Hey, Jack. Are you going to the party in town tonight?
M:No, I’d better stay at home.
W:Why? It is your favorite.
M:Well ... no.
W:Jack, are you yourself? What has happened? Are you having a fever?
M:Not really. It’s all because of my professor. We were asked to turn in a paper on Friday morning, but I haven’t started writing even a single word.
W:Why didn’t you write it?
M:I was very busy these days. I had been preparing for my English exam all the time, so I had no time.
W:Oh, come on. I think you should have a good rest. Let’s enjoy this free Wednesday night.
M:Anne, listen, I really can’t.
W:Are you serious?
M:Yes, you know it means a lot to me.
W:OK, I understand. I will go by myself. Could you lend me your car, please?
M:But you don’t have a driver’s license.
W:Who cares?
M:Well, well, Anne. I am going to drive you there and you can call a taxi when the party is over.
W:All right.
(Text 10)
(M) What would your life be like if you were Albert Einstein? What clothes would be in your wardrobe if you were Madonna? Well now you can discover the answer to all these questions at the Fame Hotel in California.
When you enter the room, you enter the life of a famous person. The owner of the hotel has tried to fill the room with objects, clothes, even food that he thinks the stars would have liked. Madonna’s wardrobe is full of beautiful white dresses; Albert Einstein doesn’t have any socks in his wardrobe because he never wore them! I spoke to one guest staying in the Elvis Presley room. “I love this hotel,” he said to me. “I wanted to know what Elvis Presley would eat for breakfast and now I know.” That guest eats pancakes and strawberry ice cream every morning, just as Elvis liked to do. On the next table, the Einstein room’s guest is eating cabbage soup! The company plans to open another Fame Hotel in New York next year and there are plans to expand into Europe too. I look forward to staying in the Winston Churchill suite in London!

Here on the island of Demesne, the humans call us “clones”. I call myself Elysia, because that’s what Dr. Lusardi told me to call myself. I started to exist just weeks ago. But I am a sixteen-year-old girl with no soul (灵魂). I know nothing of my First, the girl I was cloned from.
We entered a private room, just me, the fancy lady Mrs. Bratton, and Marisa.
The fancy lady pushes me with one of her fingers as one might poke (戳) a piece of fruit at the market. She gently pokes my flesh. She presses her hands against my back to test its firmness.
“She’s attractive,” she says.
Marisa warns her, “Mrs. Bratton, she is a Beta (a new product being tested by users). Dr. Lusardi has not perfected the teen line yet.”
“I guess that will be reflected (体现) in the price,” says Mrs. Bratton.
“Of course,” Marisa says. “Dr. Lusardi will be thrilled to know someone is willing to take a chance on a teen Beta.”
Mrs. Bratton looks at me, “What’s your name, dear?”
“Elysia,” I say.
“I think you might make a wonderful addition to our household, Elysia. We’re so badly missing a teenage girl ever since Astrid, my eldest, went off to Biome University,” she says sadly.
“Congratulations,” I say, because I know that’s the appropriate thing to say to a parent whose child has studied in a well-known university. “You must be very proud.”
Mrs. Bratton’s face brightens. “I am! But Astrid’s so hard-working that she seldom comes back to visit us. We miss her a lot. Would you like to come to my family?”
“Yes, ma’am,” I say.
Marisa sends me back into the store when she finishes the negotiations (协商) with Mrs. Bratton. I am to pick out some nice clothing to take to my new home, where I shall serve my new owner.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章节选了一个科幻故事的片段:一位母亲打算从商店购买一位克隆少女。
24.After entering the private room, the fancy lady ________.
A.makes the introductions

A.Astrid studies very hard.
B.She is going to visit Astrid.
C.She can buy something at the store.
D.Her daughter Astrid has entered Biome University.

26.Who will be Elysia’s new owner?
A.Dr. Lusardi.        B.Marisa.

From self-driving cars to carebots for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.
“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.
A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.
The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.
But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs — just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.
“The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.
A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report’s co-author.
“Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft’s Jonathan Grudin told researchers.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。人工智能改变商业结构,专家称约一半的职业到2025年将会消失。
28.We can infer from the text that in the future ________.
A.people will face many difficulties
B.people will take up more creative jobs
C.artificial intelligence will threaten people’s lives
D.most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces
解析:选B 推理判断题。由第二段中的“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work ... think about workplaces”以及第三段的描述可知,未来人们需要从事更具有创造性的工作。
29.According to the report, ________.
A.people won’t necessarily lose jobs
B.big companies will face fewer challenges
C.small companies will win against big companies
D.most people will become interested in technology
解析:选A 细节理解题。由第五段中的“Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs — just changing what people do.”可知,职业消失并不必然意味着工作丢失——它仅仅改变了人们做的事情。
30.What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?
A.Mixed. B.Worried.
C.Hopeful. D.Doubtful.
解析:选C 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future”和“The optimists pictured ’a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,’”可知,大多数人工智能和机器人领域的专家对未来持乐观态度。
31.Jonathan Grudin’s words in the last paragraph suggest that ________.
A.there will be enough jobs for people
B.things will change a lot in a few years
C.many people will become unemployed
D.technology will totally change future jobs
解析:选A 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“more jobs seem likely to be created ... when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs”可知,微软公司的Jonathan Grudin认为,更多的工作会被创造出来,人们会有足够的就业机会。

Ray Kurzweil is an inventor and futurist with some interesting ideas about how humans will soon be able to live much longer than the average 78 years they do now. If Kurzweil is right, this is a question we’ll have to ask ourselves in the near future.
The first challenge is how to stop our bodies from getting old and dying. Kurzweil doesn’t see this as a problem. With gene (基因) technology, we’ll soon be able to turn off genes that cause aging and disease. This technology is getting cheaper and advancing at an incredible (难以置信的) rate. Kurzweil believes that from every year after 2023, we’ll be adding more than a year to the average life expectancy (寿命). He also expects that within the next 20 years, we will have nanobots in our blood. These tiny robots will keep our bodies healthy and free from diseases by finding damaged cells and destroying them.
Of course, if we’re all going to live longer, then there are going to be more of us on this already overcrowded earth. Many people think there are likely to be problems with resources such as food and energy. Kurzweil doesn’t agree. He says that the same technologies used to increase our life expectancy will also be used to help with food production and energy needs. For example, he says, sunlight can potentially give us 10,000 times more energy than we now use. We just need to develop the technology to get it and make it cheaper. There are also new technologies that can recycle water extremely cheaply. This means that dirty water can be made clean again at a very low cost.
But what are we going to do with all this extra time? Won’t we all get bored? Again, Kurzweil says no. For a start, we won’t be stuck in old bodies. We’ll stay young for years. This means we’ll be able to experiment with many more things than we can now. We’ll also see huge developments in virtual (虚拟的) reality technology that will keep us entertained for years.
The future, according to Ray Kurzweil, looks good, and we might just be around to see it.
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕人类寿命被延长进行了探讨。
32.According to Kurzweil, the average life expectancy will increase greatly because of ________.
A.medical advances
B.cheaper technology
C.richer natural resources
D.improved living environments
解析:选A 细节理解题。文章第二段讨论如何解决人类生老病死的问题,Kurzweil提到可通过改变促使人生老病死的基因以及利用微型机器人消除致病细胞来延长人类的寿命。故在Kurzweil看来,医学方面的发展可使人类的平均寿命大幅度提高。
33.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Life. B.Food.
C.Water. D.Sunlight.
解析:选D 代词指代题。根据画线词前的“the same technologies ... be used to help with ... energy needs”和Kurzweil列举人类对太阳光的使用率可知,此处的it指的是可被人们充分利用的“太阳光”。
34.Which of the following does Kurzweil agree with?
A.Food shortages will become more serious in the future.
B.Technology will play an important role in the future.
C.Robots will take the place of humans in the future.
D.Humans will live in a virtual world in the future.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第二至第四段提到的科技对人类寿命、食物和能源以及人类精神世界的影响可知,科技在未来将起到举足轻重的作用。
35.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Are robots about to rise?
B.What will future life be like?
C.Is it possible to live much longer?
D.Can technology change the world?
解析:选C 标题归纳题。本文主要是针对Kurzweil提出的人类寿命可被延长所进行的讨论,故C项标题符合本文主旨。

参考范文:
Good afternoon, boys and girls!
I’d like to share with you my opinion about future life. With the development of science and technology, life will be greatly different in the future.
First, people will be able to do almost everything at home. They’ll just need to give some simple instructions and robots will complete the tasks. Second, each family will have a flying machine. They’ll be able to travel everywhere, even to the moon or somewhere under the sea. Third, our environment will be much better than now, because some effective measures will be taken to protect it. There will be no pollution, no rubbish, etc. The earth will become a big beautiful garden.
I believe people’s lives will be much easier in the future.
That’s all. Thank you for your listening.
