B【解析】本文为说明文。本文叙述了近日阿里巴巴旗下首家“未来酒店”正式开张。“刷脸”办入住；机器人送餐、调酒、制作咖啡；只要通过声控数字助理即可控制房间温度、灯光、窗帘。即酒店的房间服务都由人工智能和机器人提供。【4题详解】细节理解题。第二段的“FlyZoo Hotel, opened in Hangzhou, capital of East Chinas Zhejiang province, where Alibaba is headquartered, is known as the companys first future hotel. Customers can check into the hotel by simply scanning their faces.”可知，FlyZoo酒店，顾客只需刷脸（扫描他们的脸）就可以入住酒店。分析选项可知A符合题意，故选A。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段 “HANGZHOU-Chinese internet giant Alibaba on Tuesday opened a hotel loaded with artificial intelligence (Al) and robots, automating a series of procedures like check-in, lights control and room service.”第二段中的“Users can also control the lights, televisions and curtains in the room via Alibabas voice-activated digital assistant, while robots are deployed to serve dishes, cocktails and coffee.” 可知“国内互联网巨头阿里巴巴旗下首家未来酒店正式开张，该酒店配有人工智能、机器人，可使办理入住、灯光调控和房间服务等一系列流程实现自动化”。用户只需发出一系列口令通过阿里巴巴的声控数字助理完成“开灯、拉窗帘、开电视”等任务。而住客需要护肤品(skin-care product)、要拖鞋、叫餐等服务，响应的也会是机器人。分析选项A（所有的酒店服务都是由机器人提供的）；B（客房服务可以由人工智能控制）；C（室温可通过人工智能调节）；D（电视可以通过声控数字助理关闭）。可知B、C和D是正确的，根据第一段最后一句中“room service.”可知是“房间服务”都是由机器人提供的，而不是“所有的酒店服务”都是由机器人提供的，故A是错误的。【6题详解】细节理解。最后一段“In the future, we will continue to create more personalized experiences for consumers.”可知，“在未来，我们将继续使酒店为消费者创造更个性化的体验。”人工智能为住客创造更多定制化体验，而不是将获得较少的个性化体验，故A是错误的。第二段中的“The AI-based solution can help customers save time and relieve hotel employees from repetitive work”可知，“基于Al的解决方案可以帮助客户节省时间，减轻酒店员工的重复工作”但不是人类的工作在酒店完全消失，故B是错误的。C项文中没有提及。第一段最后一句“artificial intelligence (Al) and robots, automating a series of procedures like check-in, lights control and room service.”及第二段“Customers can check into the hotel by simply scanning their faces. The facial recognition system installed in the hotel also enables customers to use their faces as key cards to open doors and access other hotel service. Users can also control the lights, televisions and curtains in the room via Alibabas voice-activated digital assistant,”可知，人工智能提供的是房间服务。“只要你呆在房间，你就可以很容易地得到各种各样的服务”可得出D项正确。【7题详解】主旨大意题。本文叙述了阿里巴巴在中国的杭州打造出首家“未来酒店”。“刷脸”办入住；机器人送餐、调酒、制作咖啡；只要通过声控数字助理即可控制房间温度、灯光、窗帘。即酒店的房间服务都由人工智能和机器人提供服务。由此可是知，本文主要叙述的是“人工智能应用于酒店”，故B符合题意，故选B。CHave you ever caught yourself saying, I hate small talk! the minute you walk into a party? If so, you might be an introvert (内向的人). Introverts hate to chat about small subjects with people. They are fine when you talk one on one but seem to get lost in the crowd when theres a group around.If youre talking to an introvert, you might find that your first few conversations go one of two ways. Either theyll seem to get bored and not say much or theyll seem to skate over small talk in favor of more in-depth topics. What you need to know is that the introvert is not being rude. Its just that they dont like small talk. Heres why.Small talk serves as a gateway toward deeper conversation. Some introverts dont realize that small talk will actually help them get to the bigger topics. You dont need to stay on small talk forever. However, sometimes introverts feel that even the short amount of time it takes to get into the real conversation is a waste of time. Small talk is very fast. Someone says something and thisshould be followed up with a quick response. But introverts like to chew on their words before saying them aloud. Before they answer, theyll mull over different thoughts.Small talk by its very nature invites more people to join in. The more people who join theconversation, the more the introvert will tend to step back. As a result, theyll be quiet. Small talk is about throwing out subjects in the hope that one or more of them can be turned into a common point of interest.The listening involved with small talk is not in-depth. The purpose is about listening lightly so you can figure out the right topics to spend some time on. Introverts tend to be great listeners, but they use active listening rather than light listening. This makes them wonderful friends, but can also make it difficult for new people to understand why theyre so quiet.8. How do introverts respond to a chat?A. They try to avoid it.B. They get excited about it.C. They give it their full attention.D. They focus on unimportant topics.9. What do we know about small talk?A. It goes slowly.B. It costs people a lot of time.C. It contributes to deeper topics.D. It makes no sense.10. What does the underlined phrase mull over in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Give up.B. Think over.C. Write down.D. Forget about.11. How can we become a good talker in small conversations?A. Figure out the deep meaning of questions.B. Think twice before answering questions.C. Try to find shared topics.D. Be a quiet listener.【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. C【解析】【分析】本文为记叙文。主要叙述了内向的人不喜欢和人闲聊，尤其是面对一群人会不知所措。事实上闲聊是通向深入交谈的大门。一些内向的人没有意识到闲聊实际上会帮助他们进入更大的话题，吸引更多的人，并找到共同的话题。【8题详解】推理判断题。第一段“Introverts hate to chat about small subjects with people.”及第二段中的“If youre talking to an introvert, Either theyll seem to get bored and not say much or theyll seem to skate over small talk in favor of more in-depth topics. Its just that they dont like small talk.”可知，内向的人不喜欢聊天。因此对于聊天常常以回避的方式来回应对方，故选A。【9题详解】推理判断题。第三段“Small talk serves as a gateway toward deeper conversation. Some introverts dont realize that small talk will actually help them get to the bigger topics.” 可知“闲聊是通向更深入交谈的通道。有些内向的人没有意识到闲聊实际上会帮助他们进入到更大的话题”，由此可知闲聊有助于更大的话题，故选C。10题详解】猜测词义题。根据第三段划线词的前一句“But introverts like to chew on their words before saying them aloud.”可知，但是内向的人喜欢在大声说出来之前细细咀嚼他们的话,“细细咀嚼”即为仔细考虑，可知，句子“Before they answer ,theyll mull over different thoughts”可推断出“在他们回答之前，他们会仔细考虑不同的想法。”，从而得出划线部分 “mull over”意为“仔细考虑”。分析选项可知B符合题意，故选B。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Small talk by its very nature invites more people to join in.Small talk is about throwing out subjects in the hope that one or more of them can be turned into a common point of interest.”可知，闲聊本身就能吸引更多的人加入进来。闲聊就是抛出话题，希望其中一个或多个话题能成为共同的兴趣点。由此可推断出在对话中要成为一个健谈的人，就要试图寻找共同的话题。分析选项可知C项符合题意，故选C。【点睛】在阅读中我们经常会考查猜测词义题。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式，这要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文（各种已知信息）并结合具体的语境推测、判断某些词或短语的词义。例如第3小题词义猜测题。根据第三段划线词的前一句“But introverts like to chew on their words before saying them aloud. Before they answer”可知，但是内向的人喜欢在大声说出来之前细细咀嚼他们的话,“细细咀嚼”即为仔细考虑，可知，句子“theyll mull over different thoughts”中的划线部分 “mull over”意为仔细考虑。分析选项可知B符合题意，故选B。DAn online supermarket companyOcado in the UK, has recently displayed a robotic hand that can pick fruits and vegetables!When an embryo is in the womb (子宫), the very first sense it develops is touch. The senseof touch is also the one that lasts the longestas we get older and our vision and hearing begins to weaken, touch still remains. Humans use their touch to protect themselves, to create emotional relationships with other people and to experience pleasure. Can you imagine life without it?The sense of touch comes from a net work of nerve endings (神经末梢) and special touch receptors on the surface of the skin. While there are different kinds of touch receptors, they help usjudge pressure, texture and vibrations (震动). They are located in our fingertips, palms, soles of our feet, face, lips and tongue.When we touch something the mechano-receptors feel the touch and through a network of nerves send signals to the brain. This informs the brain about the location of the touch, the amount of force used, and the speed at which it was used.Several different techniques have been tried in the past few years to create such a robotic handusing three fingers. But this latest design by Soma copies the human hand. The gripper (钳子) is made up of flexible materials which grasp the thing based on its size and shape. Then air pressure is used to control the movement of the robotic fingers to pick objects safely and without causing damage.The next step would be for the robot to judge how ripe the fruits and vegetables are and apply pressure accordingly. Members of the research team are currently working on adding computerized vision to the robots, so that they can see what they are grasping.Does all this mean robots can replace people? According to Ocado, it helps improve productivity by removing some of the repetitive tasks done by humans.12. What is focused on in the second paragraph?A. The origin of touch.B. The importance of touch.C. The development of touch.D. The process of transporting touch.13. What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The brain.B. The touch.C. The nerve.D.
