Unit 5 Travelling abroad李仕才*阅读理解。A Japanese telecom company has released a robot that it says has emotions. But rather than running in fear from it, weve welcomed it into our homes: Pepper, the “emotional robot”, sold out within a minute of going on sale. Created by Aldebaran Robotics and Japanese mobile giant SoftBank, Pepper went on sale to the general public in Japan on June 20. It is “the first humanoid(类人的) robot designed to live with humans, ” Aldebaran says on its website. Pepper costs about $1, 600. And like all good mobile products, theres a $120 per month data fee, as well as an $80 per month damage insurance fee. According to a news release, Pepper can pick up on human emotions and create its own using a “multi-layer neural(神经的) network. ” Peppers touch sensors and cameras are said to influence its mood, which is displayed on the tablet-sized screen on its chest. Pepper will sigh when unhappy, and can go around your house recording your familys daily activity. Aldebaran says Pepper can feel “joy, surprise, anger, doubt and sadness, ” but it doesnt say how strongly it can feel these emotions. What happens when Pepper is having a bad day? Will it, like many humans, become uncooperative? Will it ask for some time alone? What happens if it figures out that its purpose in life is just to engage in small talks? Thankfully, Pepper is only about four feet tall, with roller balls instead of legs, so if it is angry with and even turns on its owner, youll be safe if you can make it upstairs. Aldebaran says in reality, therere probably quite a few decades away from artificial intelligence that could generate real emotions. Aldebaran wasnt immediately available for comment on when Pepper will be available outside of Japan, but additional sales are scheduled for July after the first 1, 000 units sell out. SoftBank currently uses the robots in its stores as greeters, and it plans to offer Pepper to other stores in the future. Hopefully “boredom” is not an emotion Pepper can feel. 【文章大意】本文介绍日本的一家电信公司发布了第一台“情感机器人”, 阐述了情感机器人的使用费用、功能以及发展前景。1. According to the author, Pepper _. A. is very popular among customersB. can not only run but also show fearC. is going to be sold all over the worldD. can deal with many kinds of housework【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容Pepper, the “emotional robot”, sold out within a minute of going on sale.

D. 2, 400 dollars. 【解析】选D。数字计算题。根据第二段内容theres a $120 per month data fee, as well as an $80 per month damage insurance fee. 可知, 每年用于Pepper的data fee and damage insurance fee为(120+80)*12=2 400。故答案为D。3. Peppers height and roller balls are mentioned to _. A. introduce its appearanceB. tell Pepper wont get angryC. show that safety isnt a big issueD. explain robots have strong emotions【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章第三段中Pepper is only about four feet tall, with roller balls instead of legs, so if it is angry with and even turns on its owner, youll be safe if you can make it upstairs. 介绍Pepper的height and roller balls是为了表明安全不是大问题。故答案为C。4.

Pepper is being used as a waiter in some restaurants. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中Aldebaran says in reality, therere probably quite a few decades away from artificial intelligence that could generate real emotions. 可推断Pepper现在是不能产生真正的情感的。故A正确。*语法填空。Being a teenager is a very important time in a persons life. “Why？” you may ask. Well, _1_ its the important time of preparation for adulthood.Dont get me wrong. Being a teen is hard and _2_ (annoy). Its a time that adults look upon with_3_ (embarrass) and annoyance. However, its a time to figure out your talents, _4_ you like and your view in life. A very popular trend is to “be who you are”， _5_ is great, but I like to take it further and say, “be the best you, you can be” . The teenage years are not the same for everyone. We each have our own situations, personalities, and way _6_ living a life. Those things shape us for the future. What I said is true. The majority of the human lifespan _7_ (spend) as an adult, so I might as well make sure that time is great. That is why being a teen is _8_ important role in society. We have the power to _9_ (potential) control the future. Being a teenager is awesome. Dont take _10_ for granted; instead, use this time to be the best you, you can be.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了青少年时期在人们一生中的重要性，并说明了青少年时期对于每个人都不尽相同，抓住这个时间成为最好的自己对于成年有重要意义。1because 考查连词。根据上文的“Why？you may ask.”可知，此处是回答这个问题的，故用because来引导原因状语从句。2annoying 考查词性转换。此处and连接两个并列的形容词作表语，且描述的是“Being a teen”的状况，故填annoying，意为“令人烦恼的”。3embarrassment 考查词性转换。根据下文的“and annoyance”可知，该空填名词embarrassment与annoyance并列。4what 考查宾语从句的连接词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导从句作figure out的宾语，空处在从句中作like的宾语，表示“所的事物”，故用连接词what。5which 考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且在从句中作主语，先行词为前面主句整体内容，故用which。6of 考查介词。名词way后接to do sth.或of doing sth.，表示“做某事的方式”，根据“living a life”可知，该空填of。7is spent 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。描述一般性情况，本文的时态为一般现在时，且主语“The majority of the human lifespan”为单数，与动词spend之间为被动关系，故填is spent。8an 考查冠词。此处表泛指，且important的发音以元音音素开头，故用an。9potentially 考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰动词control，故该空填potentially。10it 考查代词。此处指的是“不要不重视青少年时期”；take sth. for granted为固定搭配，意为“视为理所当然，不把当回事”，此处用it来代替“Being a teenager”。*完形填空。One day when I was 13，my family was working in the fields to clear away old brush when somehow the electric fence sparked(冒火花)and _1_ a

fire”可知，此处表示一场火灾开始了。D项意为“开始，使开始发生”，符合语境。prevent“阻止”；permit“允许”；witness“目击”。2D直到大火堵住了通往唯一的门的路，我们才发现大火。此处考查“not.until.”结构。3A根据语境可知，“我”想(wanted)跳过篱笆，到达安全地带，可是大火包围了我们。manage“设法做成”；promise“许诺”；happen“发生”。4B由上文可知，大火包围了我们，“我”只能惊恐地看着火焰继续上升。in horror“惊恐地”；in anger“生气地”；in excitement“兴奋地”；in embarrassment“尴尬地”。5C根据第二段第一句中的“my father began telling us about his days as a firefighter”可知，父亲曾经是一名消防员。carpenter“木匠，木工”；electrician“电工”；educator“教育工作者”。6A本题考查be armed with的省略结构作状语，意为“用装备或武装”，故选A项。satisfied“满意的，满足的”；shared“共有的”；identified“可辨认的”。7C根据语境可知，父亲应该是冲(dashed)向最近的池塘。slide“滑行”。8C根据上下文可知，此处指开始用水喷向火焰(flames)。9D根据语境可知，此处表示然而很快，风又变强了。pick up“变大，变强”，符合语境。die off“相继死去，先后死去”；take on“呈现，开始具有(某种特征、面貌等)”；turn out“结果是，证明是”。10B根据下文中的“he jumped into the truck”可知，父亲走向卡车。11B考查连词。A项意为“如果”，引导条件状语从句；B项意为“一就，一旦”，引导时间状语从句；C项“自以来，因为，既然”；D项“当时候，尽管”。由上下文可知，此处指父亲一到达大门，就跳进了卡车里。故选B项。12A根据语境可知，父亲开着卡车从火中穿过。through“通过，穿过”，表示运动发生在某物的空间内；along“沿着”；over“在上面”；across“从一边到另一边，横过”，表示动作发生在物体的表面。13B根据语境可知，父亲开着卡车从火中穿过，火最终被扑灭了，所以母亲睁大(wide)眼睛看着父亲。14A根据下文中的“asking him what other jobs he had done”可知，我们是很好奇的(curious)。suspicious“怀疑的，猜疑的”；concerned“(与某事)有关的，有牵连的”； anxious“焦虑的，不安的，担心的”。15C根据语境可知，我们问父亲在退休(retired)之前还做过其他什么工作。下文中的“to retire”也是提示。16A根据第三段对父亲退休前工作的描述可知，父亲做过很多事情，所以此处指除了做脑外科手术之外，父亲几乎什么都做过。everything except“除了之外什么都”符合语境。17D由上下文可知，那场事故迫使(forced)父亲退休。18B根据上下文可知，此处指那场事故(accident)。attempt“尝试”； explanation“解释”。19Bbe proud of “为感到骄傲”符合语境。ashamed“(因自己所做的事而)羞耻的，内疚的，惭愧的”。20C根据上文可知，此处指他们的技能(skills)有朝一日可能拯救你的生命。*短文改错。The second English Festival of our school was held on last Tuesday.
