B
Shopping
centres,stadiums
and
universities
may
soon
have
a
new
tool
to
help
fight
crime.
A
California
company
called
Knightscope
says
its
robots
can
predict
and
prevent
crime.Knightscope
says
the
goal
is
to
reduce
crime
by
half
in
areas
the
robots
guard.
William
Santana
Li
is
the
chief
executive
officer
of
Knightscope.He
says,“These
robot
security
guards
will
change
the
world.Our
planet
has
seven
billion
people
on
it.It’s
going
to
quickly
get
to
nine
billion
people.The
security
equipment
that
we
have
globally
is
just
not
going
to
develop
that
fast.The
company’s
Autonomous
Data
Machines
can
become
the
eyes
and
ears
of
law
enforcement(执行).”
“You
want
it
to
be
machines
plus
humans.Let
the
machines
do
the
heavy
and
sometimes
dangerous
work
and
let
the
humans
do
the
strategic
decision-making
work,so
it’s
always
working
all
together.”
The
machines
are
one
and
a
half
metres
tall
and
weigh
136
kilograms.They
do
not
carry
weapons
but
they
have
day
and
night
time
video
cameras
which
are
able
to
turn
360
degrees
and
can
also
sense
chemical
and
biological
weapons.
Some
people
may
become
concerned
about
their
privacy,especially
in
connection
with
the
video
recordings.Some
people
may
worry
that
such
recordings
will
appear
on
the
Internet.Eugene
Volokh,a
law
professor
at
the
University
of
California,says
the
machines
have
to
be
used
in
the
right
way
and
it
will
be
interesting
to
see
how
state
laws
deal
with
this
kind
of
video.
William
Santana
Li
says
there
is
a
long
waiting
list
for
the
robots
in
the
US.Workers
in
the
company
are
working
overtime
to
meet
the
demands
of
the
market.At
least
25
other
countries
are
also
interested
in
these
robotic
security
guards.
5.What
can
this
new
tool
do
for
humans?
A.Make
strategic
decisions.
B.Keep
watching
day
and
night.
C.Carry
heavy
weapons.
D.Stop
crime
autonomously.
答案B
解析细节理解题。根据第五段的第二句“Theydonotcarryweaponsbuttheyhavedayandnighttimevideocameraswhichareabletoturn360degreesandcanalsosensechemicalandbiologicalweapons”可知,这种机器人的功能就是能够日夜不停地执勤站岗。
6.Why
are
people
worried?
A.Their
privacy
may
be
let
out.
B.The
robots
are
very
expensive.
C.Robots
will
replace
humans.
D.They
will
be
out
of
work
soon.

7.Which
of
the
following

the
text?
A.Robots

A
Last
year
I
ruined
my
summer
vacation
by
bringing
along
a
modern
convenience
that
was
too
convenient
for
my
own
good:the
iPad.Instead
of
looking
at
nature,I
checked
my
e-mail.Instead
of
paddling
a
small
boat,I
followed
my
Twitter
feed(推特简讯).Instead
of
reading
great
novels,I
stuck
to
reading
four
newspapers
each
morning.I
was
behaving
as
if
I
were
still
in
the
office.My
body
was
on
vacation,but
my
head
wasn’t.
So
this
year
I
made
up
my
mind
to
try
something
different:withdrawal(退出)
from
the
Internet.I
knew
it
wouldn’t
be
easy,since
I’m
bad
at
self-control.But
I
was
determined.I
started
by
giving
the
iPad
to
my
wife.
The
cellphone
signal
at
our
house
was
worse
than
in
the
past,making
my
attempts
at
cheating
an
experience
in
frustration(沮丧).I
was
trapped
and
forced
to
go
through
with
my
plan.Largely
cut
off
from
e-mail,Twitter
and
my
favourite
newspaper
websites,I
had
few
ways
to
connect
to
the
world
except
for
the
radio—and
how
much
radio
can
one
listen
to,really?I
had
to
do
what
I
had
planned
to
do
all
along:read
books.
This
experience
has
had
a
happy
ending.With
determination
and
the
strong
support
of
my
wife,I
won
in
my
vacation
struggle
against
the
Internet,realising
finally
that
it
was
I,not
the
iPad,that
was
the
problem.I
knew
I
had
won
when
we
passed
a
Starbucks
and
my
wife
asked
if
I
wanted
to
stop
to
use
the
Wi-Fi.“I
don’t
need
it,”I
said.
However,as
we
return
to
post-vacation
life,a
harder
test
begins:can
I
continue
when
I’m
back
at
work?
There
are
times
when
the
need
to
know
what’s
being
said
right
now
is
great.I
have
no
intention
of
giving
up
my
convenience
completely.But
I
hope
to
resist
the
temptation(诱惑)
to
check
my
e-mail
every
five
minutes,which
leads
to
checking
my
Twitter
feed
and
a
website
or
two.
I
think
a
vacation
is
supposed
to
help
you
reset
your
brain
to
become
more
productive.Here
I
hope
this
one
worked.
1.What

on
vacation.

make
one
more
creative.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据末段第一句可知,作者认为,假期意味着重启大脑,让自己更具有创造性。
B
As
Internet
users
become
more
dependent
on
the
Internet
to
store
information,are
people
remembering
less?If
you
know
your
computer
will
save
information,why
store
it
in
your
own
personal
memory,your
brain?Experts
are
wondering
if
the
Internet
is
changing
what
we
remember
and
how.
In
a
recent
study,Professor
Betsy
Sparrow
conducted
some
experiments.She
and
her
research
team
wanted
to
know
how
the
Internet
is
changing
memory.In
the
first
experiment,they
gave
people
40
unimportant
facts
to
type
into
a
computer.The
first
group
of
people
understood
that
the
computer
would
save
the
information.The
second
group
understood
that
the
computer
would
not
save
it.Later,the
second
group
remembered
the
information
better.People
in
the
first
group
knew
they
could
find
the
information
again,so
they
did
not
try
to
remember
it.
In
another
experiment,the
researchers
gave
people
facts
to
remember,and
told
them
where
to
find
the
information
on
the
computer.The
information
was
in
a
specific
computer
folder(文件夹).Surprisingly,people
later
remembered
the
folder
location(位置)
better
than
the
facts.When
people
use
the
Internet,they
do
not
remember
the
information.Rather,they
remember
how
to
find
it.This
is
called“transactive
memory(交互记忆).”
According
to
Sparrow,we
are
not
becoming
people
with
poor
memories
as
a
result
of
the
Internet.Instead,computer
users
are
developing
stronger
transactive
memories;that
is,people
are
learning
how
to
organise
huge
quantities
of
information
so
that
they
are
able
to
access
it
at
a
later
date.This
doesn’t
mean
we
are
becoming
either
more
or
less
intelligent,but
there
is
no
doubt
that
the
way
we
use
memory
is
changing.
5.The
passage
begins
with
two
questions
to
.?
A.introduce
the
main
topic
B.show
the
author’s
attitude
C.describe
how
to
use
the
Internet
D.explain
how
to
store
information
答案A
解析文章结构题。议论文常以设问的形式提出论点,然后逐步论证。本文主要谈论的就是电脑储存对记忆的影响这一话题。因此可以看出,这两个设问引出了全文的论题。
6.What
can
we
learn
about
the
first
experiment?
A.The
Sparrow’s
team
typed
the
information
into
a
computer.
B.The
two
groups
remembered
the
information
equally
well.
C.The
first
group
did
not
try
to
remember
the
information.
D.The
second
group
did
not
understand
the
information.
答案C
解析细节理解题。由第二段的最后一句可知,由于第一组受测人知道电脑会储存而且信息可以再次找到,他们就没有试图记忆这些信息。
7.In
transactive
memory,people
.?
A.keep
the
information
in
mind
B.change
the
quantity
of
information
C.organise
the
information
like
a
computer
D.remember
how
to
find
the
information
答案D
解析细节理解题。第三段用实例解释了“交互记忆”这个概念。从本段内容可知,另一实验的受测人没有记忆信息本身,而是记住了信息存储的位置。
8.What
is
the
effect
of
the
Internet
according
to
Sparrow’s
research?
A.We
are
using
memory
differently.
B.We
are
becoming
more
intelligent.
C.We
have
poorer
memories
than
before.
D.We
need
a
better
way
to
access
information.
答案A
解析推理判断题。由短文最后一句可以看出,Sparrow的实验表明,人们没有因为电脑而变得聪明或愚蠢,但是使用电脑改变了人们记忆的方式。

his
hair
very
long.Some
of
his
friends
thought
that
it
looked
like
a
girl’s
hair,but
they
never
made
jokes
about
it,because
John
was
a

eco-friendly
design
is
more
flexible.It’s
actually
only
an
umbrella
skeleton
without
any

anything
such
as
newspapers,plastic
bags
or
whatever
you
want
to
serve
as
the

B
Three
Chilean
engineers
say
they
have
found
a
way
to
prevent
determined
thieves
with
what
they
claim
is
the
world’s
first
“unstealable
bike”.
The
design,called
the
Yerka,looks
like
an
average
bike,but
the
bottom
tube
of
the
frame
can
be
split
into
two
parts
and
surround
a
pole.According
to
its
creators,the
frame
can
be
taken
apart
and
reconnected
to
make
a
lock
in
just
10
seconds.Once
the
bike’s
seat
tube
forms
a
lock,the
only
way
to
steal
the
bike
would
be
to
cut
through
it,destroying
it
in
the
process.
The
Yerka
is
the
creation
of
Cristóbal
Cabello,22,Andrés
Roi
Eggers,23
and
Juan
José
Monsalve,24.The
design
was
first
announced
in
November
2014,but
recently,the
team
said
they
had
received
their
first
order
to
produce
300
Yerkas.
While
an
investment
of
$100,000
from
a
state
enterprise
fund
helped
the
project
along,they
raised
most
of
their
funds
on
crowdfunding
site
Indiegogo.The
start-up
sold
the
first
100
bikes
for
$400
and
then
increased
the
price
to
$500.In
future,it
will
rise
to
$600,according
to
a
CNN
report.
While
they
call
it
the
world’s
first
unstealable
bike,critics
have
previously
said
the
lock
could
be
picked
or
the
bike
easily
destroyed.Thieves
might
also
be
happy
simply
to
get
the
handlebars
or
front
wheel.But
the
team
say
that
if
they
weren’t
working
on
something
as
revolutionary
as
this,they
would
have
their
critics.They
also
add
that
the
wheels
have
anti-theft
nuts(螺母)
that
can
only
be
opened
with
a
special
key.?
The
designers
are
now
working
on
an
app
that
will
let
users
open
up
their
bike
using
the
smartphone.
25.What
makes
the
Yerka
different
from
an
average
bike?
A.Its
lock
can
only
be
opened
with
a
special
key.
B.It
can
be
controlled
well
by
a
smartphone.
C.It
can
be
locked
in
just
10
seconds.
D.It
can
change
its
frame
into
a
lock.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的“...butthebottomtubeoftheframecanbesplitintotwopartsandsurroundapole...makealock”可知,自行车“尤科”的特殊之处就是它的车身底杆可以分成两部分并且重组成一把锁。
26.Where
did
most
of
the
investment
in
the
Yerka
come
from?
A.A
state
enterprise
fund.
B.The
local
government.
C.A
crowdfunding
website.
D.The
creator’s
family.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第四段第一句可知,一家国有企业已投资10万美元来赞助这个项目,但是他们大部分的资金是在众筹网站Indiegogo上筹集到的。故正确答案为C项。
27.What
can
be
inferred
from
the
fifth
paragraph?
A.There
is
still
some
argument
about
the
Yerka.
B.The
team
worry
bike
wheels
might
be
stolen.
C.The
lock
of
the
Yerka
won’t
be
destroyed.
D.The
Yerka
is
becoming
more
and
more
popular.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第五段中的“criticshavepreviouslysaid...”和“Buttheteamsaythat...”可推知,关于这种自行车依旧存在争议。
28.What
does
the
underlined
sentence
imply?
A.The
team
will
invent
more
creative
things.
B.There
are
too
many
critics
of
the
team.
C.The
team
are
brave
to
criticize
themselves.
D.The
team
don’t
accept
the
criticism.
答案D
解析句意理解题。画线句用了虚拟语气,字面意思是“如果他们没有发明这样有创造性的东西,他们就接受批评”,言外之意就是他们不接受批评。
C
Manufacturers
worldwide
used
roughly
85
industrial
robots
per
10,000
employees.But
if
robots
end
up
working
more
closely
with
their
human
colleagues,one
concern
is
how
they
will
interact(互动)
safely.“At
present,robots
do
not
have
any
sense
of
touch,”
said
Professor
Gordon
Cheng,who
developed
the
special
skin.Robots
could
seriously
injure
a
human
being,so
employers
need
to
make
sure
they
are
aware
of
their
surroundings.
To
develop
the
skin,the
researchers
began
by
studying
humans.Each
person
has
about
5
million
skin
receptors(感受器)
that
register
what’s
happening
on
the
body’s
surface
and
send
signals
to
the
brain.But
the
brain
can’t
digest
information
from
each
one
at
the
same
time.Instead,the
system
used
new
receptors.So
the
team
covered
a
human-size
autonomous
robot(known
as
H-1)
with
more
than
13,000
sensors
from
shoulder
to
toe,which
are
able
to
detect
temperature,acceleration
and
pressure.
Cheng
has
already
overcome
one
challenge
that
has
troubled
early
attempts
at
creating
a
robotic
sense
of
touch.Most
have
relied
on
computing
power
to
process
signals
from
all
the
artificial
skin
cells,while
his
invention
only
sends
signals
when
individual
cells
are
touched.This
means
the
system
acts
just
like
the
human
nervous
system.For
instance,we
feel
gloves
when
we
first
put
them
on,but
eventually
our
bodies
learn
to
ignore
them.These
could
enable
robots
to
sense
their
surroundings
quickly,and
give
them
the
ability
to
interact
with
humans
and
avoid
accidents.
“Technology
like
this
could
open
opportunities
where
robots
could
work
much
more
closely
with
humans,such
as
caregiving
professions,”Cheng
added.“They
could
help
someone
get
out
of
bed,or
help
them
around
the
house.”
However,these
technologies
are
still
a
long
way
from
actual
application
in
the
field,which
will
surely
put
the
safety
of
humans
first.
29.What
worried
manufacturers
when
they
use
industrial
robots?
A.The
robots
cannot
work
closely
with
humans.
B.The
robots
do
not
have
any
sense
of
humour.
C.The
robots
may
hurt
humans
for
lack
of
touch.
D.The
robots
are
well
aware
of
the
surroundings.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“Robotscouldseriouslyinjureahumanbeing”可以得知由于没有触觉因此机器人可能伤着其他一起工作的人类同事。
30.How
did
the
scientists
develop
the
H-1?
A.They
sent
signals
directly
to
their
brains.
B.They
put
the
human
skin
over
the
H-1.
C.They
made
it
digest
information
quickly.
D.They
covered
the
robots
with
receptions.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“theteamcoveredahuman-sizeautonomousrobot(knownasH-1)withmorethan13,000sensor”可以得知研究团队在机器人身上布满感受器,这是他们改进机器人的方式。
31.What
is
the
advantage
of
Cheng’s
new
robot?
A.It
can
process
all
artificial
signals.
B.It
just
deals
with
necessary
signals.
C.It
puts
the
gloves
over
the
robots.
D.It
has
the
human
nervous
system.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第三段中的“whilehisinventiononlysendssignalswhenindividualcellsaretouched”可以推知只有在被人体细胞触碰的时候机器人才会处理相关信息,也就是机器人只处理必要信息。
D
A
1.6-meter
tall
robot
may
soon
become
the
best
friend
for
lonely
elderly
people,as
Chinese
scientists
are
making
the
final
sprint
(冲刺)toward
its
market
launch(投放),said
a
senior
researcher
on
the
robot
project
on
Saturday.
“We
are
working
on
testing
the
exact
functions
and
ways
to
reduce
the
cost
in
preparations
for
an
expected
market
launch
of
the
robot
in
two
to
three
years,”
said
Li
Ruifeng,a
member
of
the
project.
He
said
the
team
hoped
to
reduce
the
cost
so
that
the
robot
can
be
priced
at
30,000
to
50,000
yuan,which
is
expected
to
be
an
affordable
price
for
most
of
China’s
better-off
families.
The
robot
has
been
developed
with
the
functions
of
fetching
food,medicine,sounding
alarms
in
case
of
water
or
gas
leakage,sending
texts
or
video
images
via
wireless
communications,and
even
singing
a
song
or
playing
chess
to
entertain
its
masters.
Li
said
that
the
robot,developed
independently
in
China,has
technology
at
the
same
level
as
those
in
western
labs.
China
set
about
the
research
of
the
robot
in
2007,when
it
was
listed
as
a
national
key
project.It
is
backed
by
government
funding(拨款).China
has
the
world’s
largest
elderly
population
with
159
million
people
over
60,accounting
for
12
percent
of
its
total
population.According
to
a
survey
by
the
Ministry
of
Civil
Affairs,more
than
10
million
caregivers
and
nurses
are
needed
to
attend
the
elderly
people
population,as
most
of
Chinese
elderly
prefer
to
live
their
retired
lives
at
home.

Recent
statistics
show
that
one
out
of
three
people
is
trying
to
lose
weight.People
choose
to
lose
weight
for
a
wide
variety
of
reasons. 36 If
you’re
looking
for
an
effective
weight
loss
program
to
help
you
reach
your
goals,you’ll
be
interested
in
the
following
things:?
1.Well-structured
exercise
routines.Regular
exercise
is
a
must
for
successful
weight
loss.Exercise
makes
it
possible
to
create
a
calorie
deficit(赤字)
as
well
as
use
up
excess
calories
that
otherwise
would
be
stored
as
fat. 37 ?
2. 38 It
goes
without
saying
that
healthy
eating
is
important
if
you
are
trying
to
lose
weight,since
your
weight
is
largely
determined
by
the
number
of
calories
that
you
take
in
each
day
minus
what
your
body
uses.Nowadays
people
are
loading
up
with
a
lot
of
calories
and
use
only
very
little,causing
a
steady
weight
gain.In
order
for
a
weight
loss
program
to
be
effective,it
will
need
to
include
a
diet
plan
that
helps
you
cut
calories
by
promoting
low-calorie,nutrient-rich
foods,including
whole
grains,lean
meats,low-fat
dairy
and
plenty
of
fresh
fruits
and
vegetables.?
3.Safety.No
one
wants
to
achieve
their
ideal
weight
but
ends
up
with
other
health
problems
as
a
result. 39 According
to
experts,losing
1
to
2
pounds
per
week
is
a
sensible
and
safe
rate
of
weight
loss.Additionally,programs
that
don’t
require
you
to
purchase
any
pills
or
supplements
are
generally
safer
compared
to
others
that
do. 40 ?
A.Real
food
is
best.
B.Rapid
weight
loss
can
lead
to
serious
consequences.
C.Take
pills
if
you
want
to
make
your
weight
loss
program
effective.
D.Healthy
food
plans.
E.But
the
two
most
popular
reasons
are
to
look
better
and
have
more
energy.
F.Eating
more
fruits
keeps
the
doctor
away.
G.Therefore,no
weight
loss
program
will
truly
be
beneficial
without
a
well-structured
exercise
routine.

阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Goal
setting
seems
to
be
a
hot
topic,yet
it’s
easy
to
know
about
but
difficult
to
practice.
People
set
goals,work
hard
at
them
for
even
a
few
months,and
then
41
them.Next
year,they
set
the
42
goals.But
why
do
so
many
people
do
it?
They
may
be
making
goals
too
43 .But
that
isn’t
to
say
that
they
aren’t
44
goals.They
need
to
be
broken
apart
into
smaller
and
45
pieces.Make
spoon-size
goals
and
you’ll
accomplish
them
46 .?
Many
people
are
probably
unwilling
to
47
you
to
reach
your
goals.They’re
48
with
you
when
you
have
your
own
goals.They
may
even
be
enthusiastic
about
your
49
to
change
something
or
accomplish
something
new. 50 ,as
you
change
and
accomplish,they
may
not
like
it.Why?
It’s
usually
because
your
changes
and
accomplishments
51
them
that
they
could
be
doing
it,too... 52
they
aren’t!?
You
may
have
filled
your
53
with
so
many
things
that
there’s
little
54
for
your
goals
to
grow.We
must
be
careful
not
to
confuse
busyness
with
55 ,as
goals
are
always
achieved
step
by
step.Be
56
about
how
you
use
your
time
and
what
you
focus
on.Success
often
comes
when
you
know
what
to
57 ,rather
than
what
to
include
in
your
life.?
Goal
setting
is
like
the
pig
and
chicken
walking
out
early
one
morning.The
chicken
became
really
58
when
she
saw
a
sign:
“Ham
&
Eggs,$2.99”.She
said
to
the
pig,“Look,we’ve
got
double
billing
again.”
The
pig
said,“That’s
59
for
you
to
say!
For
you,it’s
all
in
a
day’s
work.For
me,it’s
total
commitment.”Goal
setting
is
all
in
a
day’s
work.Goal
60
is
total
commitment.?
41.A.withdraw

Dear
Jeremy
and
Alice,
Although
we’ve
been
delighted
to
have
you
as
neighbours,we’re
hoping
to
settle
something
that
bothers
to
us;in
a
word,your
dog
—
Cleo.
We’ve
called
several
time
about
Cleo’s
early
morning
barking.It
is
difficult
to
understanding
why
she
barks
every
minute
she’s
outside.The
early
morning
barking
have
been
disturbing
us
as
we
are
often
up
all
night
with
the
baby.Beside,Cleo
tends
to
bark
a
average
of
six
hours
a
day.This
morning
she
starts
barking
even
before
5
o’clock.That
is
too
much
for
us,considering
how
closely
the
houses
are.
We
appreciate
our
apologies
and
goodwill,but
we
hope
that
you
can
figure
a
good
way
of
settling
the
matter.
Sincerely,
Jack
and
Rose

三、阅读理解
Whether
in
the
home
or
the
workplace,social
robots
are
going
to
become
a
lot
more
common
in
the
next
few
years.Social
robots
are
about
to
bring
technology
to
the
everyday
world
in
a
more
humanized
way,said
Cynthia
Breazeal,chief
scientist
at
the
robot
company
Jibo.
While
household
robots
today
do
the
normal
housework,social
robots
will
be
much
more
like
companions
than
mere
tools.For
example,these
robots
will
be
able
to
distinguish
when
someone
is
happy
or
sad.This
allows
them
to
respond
more
appropriately
to
the
user.
The
Jibo
robot,arranged
to
ship
later
this
year,is
designed
to
be
a
personalized
assistant.You
can
talk
to
the
robot,ask
it
questions
and
make
requests
for
it
to
perform
different
tasks.The
robot
doesn’t
just
deliver
general
answers
to
questions;it
responds
based
on
what
it
learns
about
each
individual
in
the
household.It
can
do
things
such
as
reminding
an
elderly
family
member
to
take
medicine
or
taking
family
photos.
Social
robots
are
not
just
finding
their
way
into
the
home.They
have
potential
applications
in
everything
from
education
to
health
care
and
are
already
finding
their
way
into
some
of
these
spaces.
Fellow
Robots
is
one
company
bringing
social
robots
to
the
market.The
company’s
“Oshbot”
robot
is
built
to
assist
customers
in
a
store,which
can
help
the
customers
find
items
and
help
guide
them
to
the
product’s
location
in
the
store.It
can
also
speak
different
languages
and
make
recommendations
for
different
items
based
on
what
the
customer
is
shopping
for.
The
more
interaction(互动)
the
robot
has
with
humans,the
more
it
learns.But
Oshbot,like
other
social
robots,is
not
intended
to
replace
workers,but
to
work
alongside
other
employees.“We
have
technologies
to
train
social
robots
to
do
things
not
for
us,but
with
us,”said
Breazeal.
1.How
are
social
robots
different
from
household
robots?
A.They
can
control
their
emotions.
B.They
are
more
like
humans.
C.They
do
the
normal
housework.
D.They
respond
to
users
more
slowly.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,社交机器人和家用机器人的不同之处在于它们更加像人类,能够判断人的情感,并做出更恰当的反应。
2.What
can
Oshbot
work
as?
A.A
language
teacher.
B.A
tour
guide.
C.A
shop
assistant.
D.A
private
nurse.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句内容可知,这款机器人能够担当超市店员的角色。
3.We
can
learn
from
the
last
paragraph
that
social
robots
will
.?
A.train
employees
B.be
our
workmates
C.improve
technologies
D.take
the
place
of
workers
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据最后一段中Breazeal所说的话可推断,社交机器人将和我们一起工作,成为我们的同事。
4.What
does
the
passage
mainly
present?
A.A
new
design
idea
of
household
robots.
B.Marketing
strategies
for
social
robots.
C.Information
on
household
robots.
D.An
introduction
to
social
robots.
答案D
解析主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知,文章主要向我们介绍了社交机器人的一些情况,所以D项概括了文章主旨。

五、短文改错
People
used
to
communicate
with
each

mobile
phones
and
the
Internet
instead
of.This
change
in
communication
have
good
effects
on
our
works
and
life.Comparing
with
letters
and
public
phones,mobile
phones
and
the
Internet
are
fast
and
much
more
convenient.If
you
missed
your
grandmother,you
just
take
out
your
phone
and
say
“hello”
to
him.And
she
will
be
happy
to

to
place
order
with
a
foreign
company,you
can
e-mail
the

答案第二句:So→But;去掉of
第三句:have→has;works→work
第四句:Comparing→Compared;fast→faster
第五句:missed→miss;him→her
第七句:order前加an
第八句:after→before
