Ⅲ.阅读理解(共4题;每题2.5分,共10分)
In addition to applying for a traditional guide dog,the visually impaired (视觉障碍的) people will soon have another option to help with their daily life — a robot guide dog.
About the size of an English Bulldog but a bit wider,the six-legged robot guide dog from the School of Mechanical Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) can navigate (导航) users to destinations without running into barriers.It also has voice interaction functions and can recognise traffic light signals.With cameras,sensors,and AI technology,the robot dog can see,listen,and speak with users on daily journeys outside and be a companion at home.
Professor Gao,the head of the research team at SJTU,pointed out that with six legs,the robot guide dog can walk smoothly with high stability.“Even if three legs are raised,the structure still has three points of contact with the ground,creating a very stable base,” Gao said.He added that operators can use a cane (手杖) to control the walking and running speed of the robot.
In China,there are currently about 17 million visually impaired people,yet only a few hundred guide dogs are available due to high training costs.People have to wait for a long time after applying for one.Unlike traditional dogs,the production of robot guide dogs could be scaled,especially in a major manufacturing centre like China.“It’s a bit like cars.We can mass-produce them in the same way as cars so that it will become more affordable,” Gao said.“This could be a huge market because tens of millions of people might need guide dogs.”
Li Fei,among the visually impaired people participating in the field test,believes such high technology will likely change their lives soon.“The research teams are thoughtful and are continuously making improvements,” Li said.“The robot dog is electronic,making it easier to get into public places than traditional guide dogs.I will probably try the robot guide dog when it becomes available.They can be precise and reliable as they seldom make subjective mistakes.”

They claim that there are certain to be problems with traffic 　4　.
Another big problem is mechanical 　5　.What will happen if they break down 　6　,if they become popular,there is likely to be another big problem: air traffic congestion.So it looks like flying cars face more than a few problems if they are to get off the ground!
Most of us have printed out an electronic document on paper,but think about the 　7　 of printing out a three-dimensional object in plastic.3D printers build an object using layers line-by-line like a(n) 　8　 printer until the object is complete.Some vehicle companies have already used 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts.At the moment the process is slow and quality is 　9　,but before long it might be possible to see a product on a website and then 　10　 it to your printer at home.In the future we could make our own furniture,jewellery,cups,plates,shoes and toys from designs on our computers,and reduce the amount of 　11　 we have to do.
Imagine having your own robot suit.There are several companies trying to build a practical robot.This is a suit of robot arms and legs which follows your 　12　.It will allow the wearer to lift heavy objects,walk long distances and even punch through walls! There are 　13　 military advantages for this technology and might help people to walk again after disease or injury.
However,besides cost and battery life,another problem is that a badly
　14　 robot suit could injure the wearer because you wouldn’t want your robot leg or arm bending the 　15　 way.

Dear Jack,
I hope this email finds you well.After visiting the “Space Technology in Daily Life” exhibition held at the Science Museum last Saturday,I can’t wait to write to introduce something relevant,hoping to share with you the amazing experience.
The displays included models of spacecraft,moon rocks and other space-related objects.There were also experiments and demonstrations that showed how space technology is applied in our daily lives to make people’s daily lives more convenient and efficient.
What attracted me most was the hands-on activities that visitors were able to participate in,such as using 3D printers to make their own spacecraft models.
The exhibition attracted many visitors and received a very positive response.Many people said that it was a meaningful and unforgettable experience and they had learnt a lot about space technology.If you want to know further details about it,don’t hesitate to tell me.
Yours truly,

Ⅳ.阅读理解(共4题;每题2.5分,共10分)
The home of the future won’t be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today.But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams.No two homes will be the same.People will be able to buy “house kits” containing a basic house structure,with movable walls,doors and windows.They will put together the different parts to create the homes they want.
Many jobs that we do today will disappear,others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created.Skilled workers such as builders,
gardeners and electricians won’t disappear because machines can’t replace them.Teachers will still exist because students need human contact.But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more from home.The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today.
Space holidays will develop in the future,but these holidays won’t be for everyone because they won’t be cheap.Short space trips will develop first,then space hotels will orbit Earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation.By the end of the next century,there will be holiday centers on the Moon with leisure facilities for families.
Paper won’t exist in the future.Instead,there will be e-paper which people will be able to use over and over again.This will develop in order to save natural resources.E-newspapers and e-magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reusable paper.
The laws of physics tell us that Earth is going to disappear sometime in the future.This isn’t going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes (爆炸).We will have to explore the universe and find another home.At some point in the distant future,either we stay on Earth and die with it,or we leave and move to another planet.There won’t be any other choice.

写作微专题2
Welcome or reject future changes
文本解读
1.文体类型:写一篇关于科技带来变化的文章。此类文章涉及对比事物本身的利和弊,属于议论文范畴。
2.要点内容:
科技在不断进步,也在急剧地改变着人们的生活。面对越来越多的由科技产生的新事物、新现象,由于观察角度不同,人们会不可避免地产生不同的看法。这就经常会让我们写一些关于科技所带来的变化的观点类议论文。这一写作题型往往要求先说明一下现状,再对比事物本身的利和弊。有时也会要求单从一个角度(利或弊)出发进行论述,最后往往让学生表明自己的态度或对事物前景提出预测。

As far as I’m concerned,I will look on the positive side of this new technology and embrace it rather than resist it.Of course,it is crucial to pass laws to regulate the use of facial information properly.

写作指导
One possible version:
In order to facilitate teaching,our school equips students with tablet computers for classroom learning,which has aroused heated discussion.
Some people think that the use of tablet computers benefits more.For teachers,they can make the class vivid and motivate students to participate more actively in learning.For students,they can solve their doubts by surfing the Internet.However,others think that with tablet computers,students may play games and access unhealthy websites and even in class they can be distracted.
In my opinion,to prevent students from doing something unrelated to the class,our school can adopt some technical measures and instruct students how to use tablet computers properly.

The home of the future won’t be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today.But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams.No two homes will be the same.People will be able to buy “house kits” containing a basic house structure,with movable walls,doors and windows.They will put together the different parts to create the homes they want.
Many jobs that we do today will disappear,others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created.Skilled workers such as builders,gardeners and electricians won’t disappear because machines can’t replace them.Teachers will still exist because students need human contact.But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more from home.The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today.
Space holidays will develop in the future,but these holidays won’t be for everyone because they won’t be cheap.Short space trips will develop first,then space hotels will orbit Earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation.By the end of the next century,there will be holiday centers on the Moon with leisure facilities for families.
Paper won’t exist in the future.Instead,there will be e-paper which people will be able to use over and over again.This will develop in order to save natural resources.E-newspapers and e-magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reusable paper.
The laws of physics tell us that Earth is going to disappear sometime in the future.This isn’t going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes (爆炸).We will have to explore the universe and find another home.At some point in the distant future,either we stay on Earth and die with it,or we leave and move to another planet.There won’t be any other choice.

假设你是李华,你校为同学们每人配备了一台专门用于课堂学板电脑(tablet computer)。就此现象你怎么看 请根据以下要点完成一篇短文。
　　1.课堂上使用平板电脑学习的利弊;
2.你的看法。
注意:写作词数应为80个左右。
　　One possible version:
In order to facilitate teaching,our school equips students with tablet computers for classroom learning,which has aroused heated discussion.
Some people think that the use of tablet computers benefits more.For teachers,they can make the class vivid and motivate students to participate more actively in learning.For students,they can solve their doubts by surfing the Internet.However,others think that with tablet computers,students may play games and access unhealthy websites and even in class they can be distracted.
In my opinion,to prevent students from doing something unrelated to the class,our school can adopt some technical measures and instruct students how to use tablet computers properly.

What Mr Watson benefits from is the idea of “Smart Home”,an idea more topical and attractive than ever.But what does “Smart Home” mean “Smart Home” is an indicator of the use of technical systems,
automated processes and connected,remote-controlled devices in apartments and houses.The main objective of the functions is to improve the quality of life and convenience in the home.Other goals are greater security and more efficient use of energy thanks to connected,remote-controllable devices.
“Smart Home” was brought to life through continuous technological progress,in particular through the Internet and computer.Science fiction literature in the 1950s described the first visions of homes that were monitored and controlled fully automatically by machines.The 1999 film “Smart House” was about household computers and the consequences when smart machines took on a life of their own.The Fraunhofer In-Haus Centre,which was opened in Duisburg in 2001,was a lighthouse project which involved exploring and testing new system solutions in a residential environment.The first T-Com House from Deutsche Telekom in Berlin was opened to interested visitors in 2005.The focus of this model project was on connecting various home appliances and controlling them by means of different input devices.
Scientists have already been working for decades of years on “Smart Home”.There are still challenges as a result of trends like an aging society,greater environmental awareness and the related wish for a sustainable energy supply.But there are more solutions.What is the next big evolutionary advance

　　One possible version:
Dear Jack,
I hope this email finds you well.After visiting the “Space Technology in Daily Life” exhibition held at the Science Museum last Saturday,I can’t wait to write to introduce something relevant,hoping to share with you the amazing experience.
The displays included models of spacecraft,moon rocks and other space-related objects.There were also experiments and demonstrations that showed how space technology is applied in our daily lives to make people’s daily lives more convenient and efficient.What attracted me most was the hands-on activities that visitors were able to participate in,such as using 3D printers to make their own spacecraft models.
The exhibition attracted many visitors and received a very positive response.Many people said that it was a meaningful and unforgettable experience and they had learnt a lot about space technology.If you want to know further details about it,don’t hesitate to tell me.
Yours truly,
Li Hua(共116张PPT)
UNIT 2　
LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE
[头脑风暴·思维发散]
　　The instant I learnt that we would study through remote education for half a month due to the heavy snow,I strongly resisted the idea inside because I had a preference for learning at school.Personally,under no circumstances could I have a good command of relevant subjects without teachers’ face-to-face instruction available.However,our English teacher told us how to memorise phrases and organise wonderful paragraphs in an essay.He constantly kept in touch with us during online learning,which also serves as a warning and a reminder.With the teacher’s supervision,I am sure I can make progress.
一得知我们因大雪将进行半个月的远程教育时,我内心就强烈地反对这一做法,因为我更喜欢在学校学习。就我个人而言,在没有老师面对面指导的情况下,我不可能很好地掌握相关科目。然而,我们的英语老师告诉我们如何在一篇文章中记忆短语和组织精彩的段落。在网上学习的过程中,他一直与我们保持联系,这也是一种警告和提醒。在老师的监督下,我相信我能取得进步。

重点词汇
1.persuade vt.劝说;说服
·persuasive adj.有说服力的;劝说的
·persuasion n.说服;劝说
[教材原句] For example,the phrase in my opinion tells us that the passage is likely meant to persuade.
例如,“在我看来”这个短语告诉我们,这篇文章可能是用来说服别人的。
例　(读后续写之动作描写)You could hardly imagine I managed to persuade such a stubborn old man to change his mind!
你很难想象我能说服一个这么固执的老人改变主意!
persuade sb to do sth
说服某人做某事
例　Advertising is so powerful that sometimes consumers can’t help being persuaded into buying some goods that are not needed actually.
广告是如此有影响力,以至于消费者有时会被其说服而忍不住购买一些实际上不需要的商品。
persuade sb into doing sth说服某人做某事
例　Bob did everything he could to persuade his friend of the plan’s benefits.
鲍勃竭尽全力使他的朋友相信这个计划有好处。
persuade sb of.../persuade sb that...使某人相信……

通过仔细分析上面的句子,我们可以发现每个句子中都使用了“will+be+doing(现在分词)”结构,即将来进行时。
语法知识点拨

请你明天下午来吧,因为明天上午我有一个会议。
将来进行时常用的时间状语有soon、this evening、on Sunday、by this time、tomorrow、in two days、tomorrow evening、at this time tomorrow等。它表示的是一种客观的制约、约束,而不是主观意愿。

.

4.将来进行时与一般将来时连用,表示稍后的安排。

我的工作将会在7月结束,之后我将回美国纽约。
