That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University

12、in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or AI., to Hasbros “Joy for All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though pric

13、ed over 1000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers at Browns Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most.

14、 They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities includefinding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed to Jeanne Elliott

15、. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliott bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Eliot is at work. Elliott said a robotic cat that helps her mother to

16、 remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that

17、can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among eld

18、erly people.1、Whats the purpose of the project?ATo relieve the pain of the elderly.BTo promote the sales of a medicine.CTo help make the robotic cat smarter.DTo invent a robotic cat for the elderly.2、Compared with the old model, the new robotic cat will be _.AcheaperBsmallerCmore talkativeDmore expe

Each time a taxi drove up to the front of the Greenwood Racetra

21、ck, a group of local kids would run along the sidewalk angling for position by the passenger door. One lucky kid, or rather, the most aggressive one, would open the passenger door and say “Good luck, Mister!” The man getting out of the cab would vaguely say thanks and throw the kid a quarter. It was

22、 a routine everybody knew.Throughout the summer, one kid caught my eye. He was bigger than most of all the other kids but pushed away by even the smallest. He never made it but never gave up. One day, his chance arrived. As I was pulling up to the sidewalk, all the kids were pushing for a cab just a

23、head of mine. The boy saw me and walked toward my taxi. As I positioned the passenger door right beside him, he never paused and opened the passenger door, warmly saying, “Good luck, Mister!”But the man neither said thanks nor flipped him a quarter. He pushed him aside so hard that the boy fell on t

24、he sidewalk. I knew it hurt him badly. I got out in less than 10 seconds, but the man was gone in the crowd. So I looked for the kid. I decided to give him $20 for the effort. By the time I spotted him he was far up ahead, walking away in the opposite direction through the crowd and his head hanging

25、 down. When I got the cab turned around I lost sight of him. I never saw him again. Id like to find him one day and tell him that if only he had stuck around a little longer I would have given him a whole $20.I learned from this kid that when things seem so hopeless that you are ready to give up, it

26、s the time when things are most likely to turn around for you.1、What can we learn from the first paragraph?AThe passenger was ready to give a tip to the kid.BThe author was a professional taxi driver at that time.CThe lucky child was the toughest among the local kids.DThe driver would work with and

DEach road leads to Rome.23（8分） Many of us listen to music while we work, thinking that it will help us to co

29、ncentrate on the task at hand. And in fact, recent research has found that music can have beneficial effects on creativity. When it comes to other areas of performance, however, the impact of background music is more complicated.The idea that listening to music when working is beneficial to output p

30、robably has its roots in the so-called “Mozart effect”. Put simply, this is the finding that spatial rotation performance(空间旋转能力) is increased immediately after listening to the music of Mozart, compared to no sound at all.How sound affects performance has been the topic of research for over 40 year

31、s, and is observed through a phenomenon called the irrelevant sound effect. To study irrelevant sound effect, participants in the research are asked to complete a simple task which requires them to recall a series of numbers or letters in the exact order in which they saw them. The tricky thing is b

32、eing able to do this while ignoring any background noise.Two key characteristics of the irrelevant sound effect are required for its observation. First, the task must require the person to use their rehearsal abilities(复述能力), and second, the sound must contain acoustical variation(声学变化). Where the s

33、ound does not vary much acoustically, the performance of the task is much closer to that observed in quiet conditions.The irrelevant sound effect itself comes from attempting to process two sources of ordered information at the same timeone from the task and one from the sound. Unfortunately, only t

34、he former is required to successfully perform the recall task, and the effort in ensuring that irrelevant order information from the sound is not processed actually hinders(阻碍) this ability.A similar conflict is also seen when reading while in the presence of lyrical music. In this situation, the tw

35、o sources of wordsfrom the task and the soundare in conflict. The cost is poorer performance of the task in the presence of music with lyrics.What this all means is that whether having music playing in the background helps or hinders performance depends on the task and on the type of music, and only

36、 understanding this relationship will help people maximize their productivity levels.1、“Mozart effect” is mentioned to _.Aexplain how music can relax peopleBshow music can improve performanceCadvise people to listen to Mozart musicDstress Mozart music gains wide attention2、It can be inferred that pa

37、rticipants in the research _.Ahave improved their rehearsal abilityBperform better in the quiet conditionsCignore the background noise successfullyDprefer the music with great sound variation3、Paragraph 6 is written to _.Asupport an ideaBmake a contrastCintroduce a topicDdescribe a fact4、What is the

38、 best title for the passage?AMusic shapes your lifeBMusic develops your creativityCChoose quiet music for your workDDoes music make you concentrate?24（8分）Bus Tours in Washington DCThe Lights Night Tour in Washington DCDuration: 3 hours $56.33Highest-rated Night Tour in DC!
