顺抚市成风阳光实验学校专题检测卷(二十六) 阅读理解 (建议用时: 25分钟) A 体裁 说明文 题材 机器人的用 词数 382 IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot. He looks like a real person. He talks to you and plays with you. He can even think for himself and figure out what you need. It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him? Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have obsessed(迷恋)over the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable. This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor that clearly indicates its robot status. “As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable, 〞 Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, told the BBC. But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives. A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are “necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people〞, such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent of respondents said that robots should not be allowed to participate, because as robots become more sophisticated(先进的), parents may be tempted to hand over too much responsibility to them. No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us. 1. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy. B. To discuss problems related to designing robots. C. To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives. D. To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more. 2. Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot? A. To better protect it. B. To make it look cool and modern. C. To distinguish it clearly from a human. D. To keep its price down. 3. According to the second-to-last paragraph, most of the people interviewed . A. welcome robots into their homes B. believe robots are useful for certain dangerous tasks C. think families with children shouldn’t use robots for housework D. are afraid that children will become less responsible if robots take care of them 4.

David was quick at connecting the shape of things to their words. When my son was about four years old, I walked with him to the backyard. I knew that there was an ant colony under one of the slate stones in the walkway near the shed, so I said to David, “Come on. I want to show you something. 〞 As I showed David the ants that were crawling around the slate stone, he crouched down on his legs and looked with great intensity at the ants. For days after that, David wanted to look under every rock in the garden, and we often found worms, ants and so on. I recognized that David loved to look at things closely and observe how things moved, and so I continued to point things out to him as he grew older: planes, cars, shells etc. . David was a keen observer, and I just gave him the suggestions as to where to look. Today David is a medical doctor at Columbia University Center. I did not know that David would someday be a doctor, someone who has to pay close attention to what he sees, and yet I felt compelled when he was a boy to encourage his enthusiasm for observation. That is what teachers and parents do: encourage a child’s enthusiasm for a particular interest: music, swimming, art, reading. And we provide tools for the children. If a child likes to draw, give him brushes, pens, and paper. If a girl likes to tap on the table top, give her a drum. If a child wants to sing, give him a microphone and a Frank Sinatra recording. 5. The author wrote the passage to . A. recall the happy times he spent with his son B. tell us that children are full of curiosity C. tell us how to let children love nature D. advise us to develop children’s interest or talent 6. The author showed David the ants to . A. prevent him from becoming bored B. develop his enthusiasm for observation C. teach him some new words D. arouse his interest in creatures 7. Which of the following can best describe the author’s viewpoint? A. Make children have their own hobbies. B. Teach children to be independent as soon as possible. C. Satisfy children’s interest by possible means. D. Hobbies can determine one’s future. 8. The underlined word “intensity〞 in the third paragraph probably means“ 〞. A. hatred B. fear C. curiosity D. doubt C (2021·模拟) 体裁 记叙文 题材 生活哲理 词数 252 At a physics conference dinner with my husband Alex, I sat next to a man I’ll call Clayton. Clayton kept talking about himself all through the entire conversation: he had solved problems no one else could; only his views were right; other researchers’ work was inaccurate or unimportant. I could not put in a word. Extremely annoyed, I planned to avoid Clayton in the future. In fact, I decided never to have another conversation with him. A few days later I was in an education class. Our professor explained how one child could become the target of the other students’ ridicule(嘲笑). “Usually it’s because the class sees their own weaknesses glaringly magnified(放大)in that student. They don’t want to admit they have the same weakness, so they ridicule and exclude the student. The behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity. 〞 As I took notes, suddenly I thought of Clayton. It struck me that I have many of the same faults. How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out. I, too, sometimes feel that only my opinion is right. My concerns or work easily seems most important. As my professor had 本文来源：https://www.dywdw.cn/a40895c91a5f312b3169a45177232f60ddcce765.html
