核心素养测评二十 Unit 1 Living with technology
(限时35分钟)
Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
If you live in Washington D. C. or Redwood, Calif. , you may have glimpsed a small, boxy robot rolling along a local sidewalk, minding its own business, but attracting the attention of many a curious onlooker.
The robots, which look like electric rice cookers with wheels, were part of a pilot program last year by Starship Technologies focused on delivering meals from local restaurants in dozens of cities around the world.
This week, the company revealed plans to broaden its delivery service beyond food to include packages, a move that made it “the world’s first robot package delivery service”. The package delivery service is only available in some cities in the US.
The wheeled robots have a top speed of 4 mph and can detect barriers from as far as 30 feet away. “The robot can operate through just about anything, ” says Nick Handrick, head of operations for Starship’s D. C. office, “If you have something in the way, it’s able to climb it. ” By giving customers control of when deliveries occur, Starship Technologies is promoting its service as a way to combat package theft.
To sign up for the service, which costs a little more than $10 per month, customers need to download the company’s app. Customers then create a “Starship Delivery Address”, a unique address inside a Starship facility, instead of a home address, where they can have packages sent from places such as Amazon. com.
Once a package is delivered to the Starship address, customers receive a text notice that allows them to schedule a home delivery via robots. The robots are opened by customers with a mobile phone code (代码).
【文章大意】本文为说明文。文章主要讲了在美国的一些城市, 包裹可以由机器人运送了。

【知识拓展】长难句分析
By giving customers control of when deliveries occur, Starship Technologies is promoting its service as a way to combat package theft.
分析: 本句为简单句, By giving customers control of when deliveries occur, 是介词短语作状语, 其中when引导的句子作介词of的宾语从句; to combat package theft作a way的定语。
翻译: 通过让顾客控制什么时候投送快递, 星际飞船技术公司正在提升其服务, 作为一种打击包裹盗窃的方式。
B世纪金榜导学号
An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (迁徙).
Migratory birds (候鸟) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is accompanied by some human behavior. “In English-language Wikipedia (维基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States, ”said the lead author John Mittermeier.
And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly 2. 5 billion Wikipedia search records, for 32, 000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.
This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world’s biological diversity. It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation.
Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He commented, “I think there’s a concern among conservationists (生态环境保护者) that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they’re not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people’s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature. ”
Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, “By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help. ”
【文章大意】本文为说明文。牛津大学的一个国际研究小组发现, 人们使用互联网的方式与自然界的季节性运动密切相关。他们的在线物种搜索遵循季节性动物迁徙的模式。这一发现提出了监测世界生物多样性变化的新方法。它还展示了一种新的方式来了解人们有多关心自然, 以及哪些物种和地区可能是最有效的保护目标。

7. How does Mittermeier feel about the search results?
A. Satisfied with Wikipedia’s service.
B. Worried about Wikipedia behavior.
C. Amazed at people’s care about nature.
D. Sad about people’s not getting close to nature.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people’s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature可知Mittermeier看到人们对维基百科的兴趣是与大自然的变化密切相关的, 感到非常兴奋和意外。故选C。

A. It helps to aim at conservation targets.
B. It increases interest in big data approaches.
C. It keeps track of trends in biologists’ work.
D. It pushes people to solve difficult problems.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据最后一段By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help. 可知Richard认为通过使用这些大数据方法, 我们可以将我们的注意力转向现代保护中的难题: 哪些物种和地区正在发生变化, 哪些人最关心这些问题, 哪些人能够提供最多的帮助。即他认为这些搜索数据可以有助于设定保护目标。故选A。
