I ignored my family and my surroundings (周围事物).Being connected was more important than being present.So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year.“This year,” my dad said, “we'll be doing something special. We're going camping!” His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh (叹气).It wasn't my dream vacation because my mind was on my phone. I was so buried in the screen, in fact, that the first time I can remember truly looking up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite.I stared out the window and saw redwoods towering above us, their branches threatening to pierce (刺破) the blue sky.I saw a roaring river, with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing white rapids.The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot.But none of that mattered to me.The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious: my phone no longer had service.The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense. My dad announced that he had chosen a campsite that had no cell service, and that my phone would be useless until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world! I went through the full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip. I raged (发怒).I bargained. I begged. I flip flopped (转变) from a depressive state to anger and back.I went to bed angrily that night.

B.Indifferent.C.Objective. D.Concerned.解析:观点态度题。根据第一段中的“many warned me to make sure my life insurance was paid in full before getting into the car”可知,作者的朋友对于乘坐无人驾驶汽车是心存忧虑的。√5.What can be inferred from paragraph 2 A.The author was disappointed at the car.B.The engineers express cautious optimism.C.Not all the people accept self-driving cars.D.The car was equipped with modern comforts.解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But it'll be a long time before most people are ready to go there.”可知,虽然作者对此已有心理预期,大部分人还是没有做好迎接无人驾驶汽车时代的准备。所以不是每个人都能接受自动驾驶汽车。6.Why does the author think autonomous driving is only a small step A.It poses a threat to humans.B.Human driving still matters.C.The technology is imperfect.D.It only targets highway drivers.√解析:细节理解题。根据第三段首句可知,作者之所以认为无人驾驶的进步只是很小的一步是因为该计划是人类驾驶和自动驾驶相结合的产物,人类驾驶员依旧要介入其中。7.Which of the following best describes the combination of human and autonomous driving A.Demanding. B.Challenging.C.Inspirational. D.Progressive.√解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“This combination will let the autonomous car industry grow one step at a time ...Gradually ... the role of the human driver will wind down.”可知,这种结合让自动驾驶汽车行业一步步发展,让社会逐渐适应它。CNao, 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 (言语的) 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.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一个欧洲研究团队发明了一个能够通过姿势表达情感的机器人Nao,希望能将这种情感程序运用在医学APP上,帮助孩子在看医生时缓解他们的焦虑。8.According to the text, what can we know about Nao A.Nao displays different feelings in different situations.B.Nao is able to imitate adult emotional displays.C.Nao can remember people's feelings.D.Nao learns emotions from facial expressions.√解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When Nao is sad ...arms for a hug.”可知,当Nao生气时,它会低下头;当它开心时,它会伸出手要求抱抱。说明Nao能在不同的情况下表达不同的情绪。9.What can we learn from the text A.Scientists worked on facial and spoken expressions to create Nao's emotions.B.The time when Nao displays feelings has been pre-programmed.C.Emotional programming is used in medicine production.D.Robots with emotional skills can help children feel more comfortable.√解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Children might find ... makes them less anxious.”可知,如果孩子有一个小的、可爱的又能够理解他们情感状态的机器人陪着的话,他们可能就不会那么焦虑了。10.What does the underlined word “distress” in paragraph 5 probably mean A.Courage. B.Anxiety.C.Anger. D.Satisfaction.√解析:词义猜测题。第五段提到一个独立的机器人在搜索一个空间时很少寻求帮助,是独立完成任务的。句中while“然而”是一个转折连词,连接两个句意相反的句子,由此可以判断,一个胆怯的机器人在处理一个空间内的有害东西时可能会不知所措,故画线词意为“焦虑”。11.What is the text mainly about A.The relationship between humans and robots.B.The roles that robots play in different fields.C.The first robot able to show feelings.D.The long history of robots.解析:主旨大意题。第一段提到了情感机器人Nao,下文内容围绕情感机器人的特性以及将来会运用到的场景展开,故可判断本文讲述了第一个情感机器人。√DPeople who have trouble walking or moving around often have a hard time enjoying the beach.But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves.It's called Seatrac.Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving ramp (坡道) that can carry a disabled person into the sea.It is operated by remote (远程的) control.Once in the sea, the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water, or go for a swim.When the person is ready to get out of the water, the Seatrac system brings the chair back to the top of the ramp.Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece.When one of the inventors, Ignatios Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair, the friend said he enjoyed the sea, but didn't like having to be carried into the ocean.Mr Fotiou realized there must be a way to make it easier for wheelchair users to get into the water.Mr Fotiou worked with his partner and a professor at a Greek university to design the system.Finally, they formed a company called TOBEA to build and sell the systems.The company worked hard to make the system simple enough to be put in place and easy to run.A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach the Seatrac.The system uses solar (太阳能的) power.It doesn't require outside power, and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out.The Seatrac system can easily be packed up and stored when the swimming season ends.The Seatrac system is being used at over 220 beaches in Greece, Cypris, Italy, and Latvia.TOBEA hopes to offer Seatrac in other countries.TOBEA has created a website showing where beaches with these special services can be found.The Greek government hopes that Seatrac will help attract more tourists to the country.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Seatrac系统的原理和功能及系统的应用范围和优势。√12.What is Seatrac able to do A.Watch out of the disabled in the sea.B.Choose the suitable beach for the disabled.C.Help the disabled get in and out of the sea safely.D.Enable the disabled to move around the beach freely.解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving ramp that can carry a disabled person into the sea.”可知,Seatrac系统能帮助残疾人安全进出大海。√13.What made Mr Fotiou decide to develop Seatrac A.His partner's advice.B.His love for the sea.C.His wish to start a company.D.The difficulty his friend faced.解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第二、三句可知,朋友面临的困难让Fotiou产生了发明Seatrac的想法。√14.What does the author think of the Seatrac system A.It is becoming more popular.B.It should be well protected.C.It needs to be fully introduced to the public.D.It is environmentally friendly and convenient.解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后两句可知,作者认为Seatrac系统既环保又方便。√15.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about A.Expectations for Seatrac.B.The practical application of Seatrac.C.The popularity of Seatrac.D.Special services Seatrac provides.解析:段落大意题。根据最后一段特别是最后两句可知,本段主要讲了对Seatrac的期望。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Today it is common to see people who walk about with colored wires hanging from their ears wherever they go.They move about in their personal bubbles, sometimes unaware of what's happening around them. 16 Outside life is shut out.So are you one of “them”?For me, walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect. 17 What's even better, wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says, “I'm not available for chatting at the moment!”Suppose, you're at work and about to make an incredible breakthrough, but a colleague suddenly turns up.At this precise moment, the slightest disturbance would break your concentration. 18 Once again, those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that “Go away!” signal.19 It's probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family.While their mothers give them lectures about why they should do their homework, they can just turn up the volume on their music player, smile, and say “Yes, Mum.” Problem solved.Pretty soon, not only will we have pretty colored wires hanging from our ears, but also our brains will be directly plugged into some new high-tech instruments.We'll be in a virtual world, communicating with everyone else, or choosing not to, as we like.In this world, we will all be permanently plugged in. 20 And they are changing our social habits along the way.In the end, there is a thin line between using technology as a tool for making life better and being a slave to it! It's so strange — suddenly, I don't feel like wearing my earphones anymore.A.Our instruments are changing quickly.B.I also have wires hanging from my ears.C.In the home situation, teenagers love these wires.D.I don't have to deal with the noise from the environment.E.After all, I am listening to my favorite music and would rather not be disturbed.F.Listening to music through earphones is the perfect way to ignore such interruptions.G.They walk around in their own spaces, with their personal “digital noise reduction systems”.语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。科技作为一种工具,本来是为了使人们的生活更美好,但人们似乎在逐渐成为科技的奴隶。16.选G 上文提到,人们塞着耳机,沉浸在自己的世界里,有时甚至意识不到外界发生的事情;下文提到外界环境是被关闭的。故G项“他们行走在自己的空间,戴着他们自己的‘数码降噪系统(耳机)’”承上启下,符合语境。17.选D 根据下文可知,戴着耳机是告诉别人现在自己不想讲话的一个信号。“What's even better”表明空处与后一句为并列关系,都说明戴耳机的好处。故D项“我无需应对外界的噪声”承上启下,符合语境。18.选F 根据上文可知,就在此时此刻,一点小小的干扰都会使你注意力不集中。再根据后一句可知,你戴着耳机会暗示周围的人“走开,请勿打扰”。故F项“用耳机听音乐就是一个很好的避免干扰的方法”承上启下,符合语境。19.选C 根据本段内容可知,本段主要讲青少年在家里戴耳机的原因,故C项“青少年喜欢在家里使用耳机”符合语境。20.选A 根据后一句可知,它们也在改变着我们的生活方式,and提示空处与后一句为并列关系。故A项“我们的设备在快速变化”符合语境。第二部分:语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The

Museum organized by our school.It kicked off with an exhibition of the history of Chinese science, unfolding the awe-striking wisdom behind.What followed was a hands-on experience, which uncovered the secrets of science.With a lecture onthe prospect of science, the tour was brought to an end.Not only did the tour instill me with a sense of pride in our scientific advances, but it also planted in my heart a seed of scientific exploration.Anybody who shares the same feeling Anticipating your comments!第二节(满分25分)阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。Back in the early 1980s, the idea of home computers was catching on.I wasn't keen on getting one.Somehow, I evolved and have owned several computers over the years.Some days, I loved my computer, but more often than not, I hated it.I didn't grow up with them, and they were a challenge to my mental health.Dealing with modern technology was my introduction to stress, and I know who to blame: my children.They weren't satisfied that their dad and I finally bought a computer and learned to send emails.We were quite happy with that, but next came a cellphone.Then just talking on the phone was not acceptable; they insisted we learn to text as well.We couldn't get a break.I remember well the night that a social app became very popular around here.Those kids of ours were determined to set up a joint account for us.It took some convincing.We felt no guilt for grating on (激怒) their nerves considering the drama they'd sometimes created for us during their teenage years.A little payback wouldn't hurt those two.More recently, my husband and I were forced into getting rid of our flip phones and getting smartphones.I will admit that I progressed into appreciating mine.I liked speaking to Siri and finding out what I needed to know in an instant.I enjoyed having Internet access everywhere I went.I felt a sense of accomplishment; my husband — not so much.To this day, he would happily take back his flip phone.Last Christmas, our children surprised us with yet another popular form of technology — Alexa.The girls took our smartphones in hand and got us programmed.Before we fully understood what was happening, we could tell Alexa to turn our lamp on or off, and she would.To be honest, we were a bit annoyed at having to learn how to use yet another device, but we decided to keep it.We mastered turning the lamp on and off, and once again I got the hang of it sooner than my husband did.I became his Alexa coach.注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式作答。One night, Alexa did not turn on the lamp when I gave the command. We should thank our children and grandchildren.参考范文:One night, Alexa did not turn on the lamp when I gave the command.I tried to say “Turn on the light” to it countless times, but Alexa didn't work.“New technologies are always unreliable,” my husband complained.I searched the Internet and immediately found the reason why Alexa couldn't work.I just needed to tell Alexa to set the light color to white or whatever color I wanted, and then it would turn on the light.Then Alexa turned on the light itself.We should thank our children and grandchildren.It was our children and grandchildren that taught us to use technology so that I could find a solution on the Internet by myself.Without them, our life is always invariable and boring.Our children and grandchildren “force” us to accept and use technology, which seems to put us under pressure.However, the fact is that our children and grandchildren let us really accept and use technology to make our life more convenient.UNIT 4 课时检测(七) 单元语基回顾性盘查Ⅰ.根据汉语提示写单词——单词拼写(7分)(1)If we ____________ (分析) the problem, perhaps we can solve it.(2)This book was designed in order to provide a working knowledge of ____________ (金融).(3)It's ____________ (预料) that our country will face a stronger climate warming trend in the future.(4)It is ____________ (非法的) to sell cigarettes to children who are under age.(5)I've ____________ (突出) the important passages in yellow.(6)New technology has enabled development of an online ____________ (虚拟的) library.(7)The working group will be looking for __________ (切实可行的) solutions to the problems faced by doctors.Ⅱ.在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式——单句语法填空(12分)(8)Anger is the natural reaction we experience when we feel ____________ (threat).(9)I thought she had retired, but ____________ (apparent) she hasn't.(10)There is no general agreement on a standard ____________ (definite) of intelligence.(11)It was raining heavily, so I had no alternative but ____________ (stay) at home.(12)The map shows the ____________ (distribute) of this species across the world.(13)It was up to him to be buried in ____________ (study) English and make something of himself.Ⅲ.在空白处填入1个适当的单词——固定搭配(16分)(14)Now his aim is to be a chemist and make __________ breakthrough in the area of chemistry.(15)Bees, bats and rodents, to name ____________ a few, can see what humans can't — ultraviolet light.(16)A jewellery shop was broken ____________ between midnight and 5 a.m.(17)The vegetables will be a lot cheaper if you buy them ____________ large quantities.(18)We must remain ____________ the forefront of innovation in executive education.(19)There are ____________host of respectable people around us.Take my English teacher for example, he is one of them.(20)First, the phenomenon of extensive deforestation and over hunting boils ____________ to the lack of forceful law.(21)Economic growth must not be achieved ____________ the expense of environment or resources.Ⅳ.写出加黑部分在具体语境中的含义——熟词生义(10分)(22)Each stadium had a seating capacity of about 50,000.________________(23)After waving goodbye to us, he urged his horse forward.________________(24)When I finally posed the question, “Why?” he merely shrugged.________________(25)He was walking down the street when he spied an old friend.________________(26)The doctor used this instrument to monitor the patient's heartbeats.________________Ⅴ.根据汉语意思完成句子——单句写作(10分)(27)__________________, he has done a good job.考虑到他的年龄,他做得已经非常不错了。(28)__________________________ he adjusts himself to the life in university.用不了多久他就会适应大学生活。(29)__________________________ we need to devote more resources to this problem.不可否认,我们必须投入更多的资源来解决这个问题。(30)Finding himself under fire from all quarters, he ________________________________ his scheme for the time being.在这四面楚歌的情况下,他没有别的办法,只好暂时放弃他的计划。(31)I grew anxious: __________________________ my message 我变得越来越担心,如果他们没有收到我的信息该怎么办?UNIT 4 课时检测(七)Ⅰ.(1)analyse (2)finance (3)predicted (4)illegal(5)highlighted (6)virtual (7)practicalⅡ.(8)threatened (9)apparently (10)definition(11)to stay (12)distribution (13)studyingⅢ.(14)a (15)but (16)into (17)in (18)at (19)a(20)down (21)atⅣ.(22)可容纳人数 (23)驱赶 (24)提出 (25)突然看见 (26)监听Ⅴ.(27)Given his age (28)It won't be long before(29)It can't be denied that(30)had no alternative but to abandon(31)what if they hadn't received1 / 2 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 Section Ⅶ 单元回顾与盘点.doc Section Ⅶ 单元回顾与盘点.pptx UNIT 4 课时检测(七) 单元语基回顾性盘查.doc
