【題目】 Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug. Nothing is out of the ordinary, except that Nao is a robot.

“We’re modeling the first years of life,” says Lola Canamero, a computer scientist at the University of Hertforshire. “The feelings are shown through physical gestures and body movements rather than facial or verbal (言語的) expressions.”

In the future, says the scientist, robots are likely to act as companions, provide support for old people, and help people shop online. In such uses, the display of feeling will be important in making the interactions (交往) more natural and comfortable.

Nao has been programmed to copy the emotional skills of a one-year-old child. It can memorize faces, and knows the basic rules of good and bad. Based on these it can decide how to react to what is going on. The actions going with each feeling are pre-programmed, but Nao decides for itself when to display them.

Nao is also programmed to have different personalities. A more independent robot is less likely to call for help when exploring a room, while a more fearful robot will show distress if it finds something in the room that may be harmful.

Canamero’s team will take its emotional programming forward into medical applications. Part of the project will look at ways to use robots in hospitals to support the roles of doctors, nurses and parents. Children might find that a small, friendly-looking robot that can understand their emotional states makes them less anxious. “We want to explore different roles—the robots will help the children to understand their treatment and explain what they have to do. We want to help the children to control their anxiety.” she says.

【1】According to the text Nao_______.

A.displays different feelings in different situations

這是一篇說明文。文章講述了一個(gè)新型機(jī)器人Nao，這個(gè)機(jī)器人的獨(dú)特之處在于它擁有比較復(fù)雜的情感感受，可根據(jù)不同情緒狀態(tài)做出相應(yīng)的反應(yīng)。

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的“Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug.”（一個(gè)歐洲研究小組發(fā)明了第一個(gè)能夠表達(dá)感情的機(jī)器人Nao。當(dāng)Nao傷心的時(shí)候，他低下頭，往下看。當(dāng)他高興的時(shí)候，他舉起雙臂要擁抱。），可知Nao在不同的情況下表現(xiàn)出不同的感受。故選A項(xiàng)。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段中的“Children might find that a small, friendly-looking robot that can understand their emotional states makes them less anxious.”（孩子們可能會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，一個(gè)小的，看起來友好的機(jī)器人，可以理解他們的情緒狀態(tài)，使他們不那么焦慮。），可知具有情感技能的機(jī)器人可以幫助孩子們感覺更舒服。故選D項(xiàng)。

【3】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的“Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down. When he’s happy, he raises his arms for a hug.”（一個(gè)歐洲研究小組發(fā)明了第一個(gè)能夠表達(dá)感情的機(jī)器人Nao。當(dāng)Nao傷心的時(shí)候，他低下頭，往下看。當(dāng)他高興的時(shí)候，他舉起雙臂要擁抱。），可知未來像Nao一樣的機(jī)器人能表達(dá)他們的感情，D項(xiàng)正確；由第三段中的“In the future, says the scientist, robots are likely to act as companions, provide support for old people, and help people shop online.”（這位科學(xué)家說，在未來，機(jī)器人很可能成為同伴，為老年人提供支持，并幫助人們在網(wǎng)上購物。），可知AB兩項(xiàng)正確, 科學(xué)家說未來機(jī)器人只能幫助人們在網(wǎng)上購物，并未說機(jī)器人能和人一起購物，C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。故選C項(xiàng)。

【4】

主旨大意題。由第一段中的“Nao, the first robot able to show feelings, has been created by a European research team. When Nao is sad, he lowers his head and looks down.

【題目】 Living with your parents has its benefits at least when it comes to raising your kids― their grandkids. Two new studies add to the evidence that grandmothers can enhance the survival of grandchildren. That is, unless grandma's too old or lives too far away.

Humans are unusual in that the females live long past the age at which they stop having babies. Patrick Bergeron, professor of biology at Bishop's University in Quebec, said that most of the organisms will reproduce up to their very last moment. This increase is often explained by the so-called "grandmother effect". He thinks there could still be a benefit for women who stop having babies to increase their genetic footprint by helping their daughters to raise larger families.

To explore the "grandmother effect" hypothesis （假設(shè)），Bergeron and his colleagues examined nearly 200 years' worth of French-Canadian population records from the 17th and 18th centuries. "At the time, life was tough. In some years, a third o the kids were not even making it to one year of age.” But the researchers found that having a grandmother still alive was a definite plus."Families with grandmothers alive were larger by about two and the survival of these grandchildren to age 15 was much improved."

This beneficial effect was only seen when the matriarchs （女家長）lived nearby. That role is tougher for them to fulfills as they get older in poor health, which brings us to the second study. The researchers found that the benefits associated with having a grandmother on hand depended on her age. Once manna hit 75, the grandchild survival benefit disappeared. This was almost certainly due to some form of indirect resource competition, though, rather than wickedness （邪惡）on the part of co- resident grandmothers.

So a healthy grandma helps make for a healthy grandchild. If ',over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house" isn't too long a trip.

【1】What's the second paragraph mainly about?

A.Differences between animals and human beings.

B.Disadvantages of living with grandmas

C.Grandmothers' influence on the kids.

D.What's called“grandmother effect”.

【2】How does the writer describe about the French-Canadian population more than three hundred years ago?

A.By voicing opinions.B.By providing facts.

C.By giving examples.D.By telling stories.

【3】What can we infer from the second study?

A.Society should be concerned about the old women.

B.Grandmothers over 75 years old are unwilling to help.

C.Some grandmothers may occupy kids' relative recourses.

D.Some grandmothers are getting wicked after they are old.

【4】Which of the following can be the most helpful grandmother according to the passage?

A.A healthy one living nearby. ,

B.A healthy one living abroad.

C.An old one living in a nursing home.

D.A knowledgeable one living together.

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事。

Early in the morning I went to the ocean beach to play my guitar. The usually crowded beach was deserted except for two people. On one side of the boardwalk (木板人行道) was a woman who was cleaning the beach with a broom; on the other side was a lone figure sitting and staring to sea. I chose a spot between them and began to play.

As I played, the woman with the broom swept her way right next to me. She stopped sweeping and leaned on her broom, smiling at me. She appeared to be homeless with dirty mismatched clothes.

“You sure play beautiful music.” she said. “I think my friend would like you music. I want to hire you to play for her.” She pointed to the lone figure staring out at the ocean, then produced a few coins from her pocket. “I don’t have much, and I know you’re worth a lot, but if I give this to you, will you play a song for her? She’s going through a lot. I know the music will make her feel better.”

I told her I’d be happy to play for free.

As we walked over to her friend, the Broom Lady told me that her friend had not talked for weeks.We approached, and the Broom Lady introduced me, “Annie, I got you a present to cheer you up. It’s a guitar man who is going to play a song specially for you.”

Annie didn’t move. She was wearing dark sunglasses and had an old coat pulled up to cover most of her face.

I sat next to Annie and played. As I played I put every thought into having good things happen for this woman. I played for quite a while.

Suddenly, Annie turned toward me and said, “You make it so beautiful. I can feel it inside my heart.”

【題目】閱讀下面短文和問題，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容和每小題后的具體要求，在答題卡和相應(yīng)題號后的橫線上寫下相關(guān)信息。完成對該問題的回答，答語要意思清楚，結(jié)構(gòu)正確，書寫工整。

If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a “l(fā)esson” in sorting (分類) garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations on July 1, 2019.

As China’s first city to carry out strict regulations(規(guī)則) on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents to sort garbage into four categories, namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.

Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.

The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been updated. The city’s waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the bureau.

“Proper waste sorting is to protect the environment and save natural resources,” said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. “Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.”

However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (傾倒). According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin.

This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will decompose (分解) properly and become useful organic (有機(jī)的) waste, the bureau said.

Plastic bags can affect this process. Some people in Shanghai are instead using paper bags that can biodegrade（生物降解）or plastic containers that can be washed and reused, according to Xinhua.

【1】When did the new garbage-sorting regulations come into effect in Shanghai?（不多于4個(gè)單詞）

【2】According to the passage, people in Shanghai are asked to sort their garbage into four categories, and what are they?（不多于8個(gè)單詞）

【3】Why should we sort garbage? （不多于11個(gè)單詞）

【4】How do people deal with wet garbage when dumping? （不多于7個(gè)單詞）
