have arrived and then wait until a voice calls me into the examination room.There，a robotic nurse directs me onto the scales and then takes my blood pressure.Some time later，in steps the doctor，who is also a robot.He notes down my symptoms and gives me a prescription.I pay for my visit using a credit card machine and return home without having encountered another human being.This scenario (场景) is my nightmarish (噩梦般的) vision of the future，which hasnt come to passat least not yet.I should say I really do like many aspects of technology.I am a big fan of air conditioning in the summer and heaters in winter.But I am writing this because I dont want machines to take over.When I call my dentists office and actually get a human being on the line，I am thrilled.And when I see the introduction of yet more selfservice checkout stations at the grocery store，I feel like shouting：“When it comes to cashiers (收银员)，make mine human，please！” After all，human cashiers sometimes give you a store coupon (优惠券) for items you are buying but you didnt realize were on sale.Even more than that，real life cashiers often take an interest in particularly cute children，which can brighten a young mothers day.A cashier may also show compassion for an elderly person struggling to get that last penny out of her purse.What technological device would do any of this？I dont want to go back to the Store Age，but Im also worried about a world run by machines.Sometimes when youre chatting with someone，you discover things you need to know.Maybe a receptionist needs prayers said for a sick child.Maybe a sales person can offer a bit of encouragement for a customer who is feeling tired. Machines can be efficient and costeffective and they often get the job done just fine.But they lack an element so crucial to everyday life.It is being human that prompts (促使) us to smile at others，which may be what they need at that moment.Call it the spirit，the soul or the heart.It is something no machine will ever have.语篇解读这是一篇议论文。作者通过前两段的事实，提出自己的观点：非常喜欢科技带来的生活便利和舒适，但是她不希望机器占据她太多的生活，人性化的人工服务，更令人感到舒服。1Whats the authors purpose in writing the first two paragraphs?ATo indicate high technology can make our future life very efficient.BTo warn readers of the possible dangers of robotic nurses and doctors.CTo describe a possible future scene where robots take control of our life.DTo predict how technology can affect the way we see a doctor in the future.解析：推理判断题。从第三段“This scenario is my nightmarish vision of the future，which hasnt come to passat least not yet.”可知，前两段是作者以看病为例表达对将来的担忧，她担心机器人将掌控人类的生活。答案：C2What is the main reason that the author prefers being served by humans rather than by robots?ARobots dont offer to give store coupons.BRobots are indifferent and emotionless.CServices from robots cost less time and more money.DRobots cant do a job as well as humans do.解析：细节理解题。从第六段与人相比较，可以得此答案。机器服务是“indifferent”冷淡的和“emotionless”没有感情的。答案：B3What does the underlined word “element” mean in the eighth paragraph?AHumor.BThe ability to speak.CMethods.DEffective communication.解析：词义猜测题。从第七段所举的例子“Sometimes when youre chatting with someone，you discover things you need to know.Maybe a sales person can offer a bit of encouragement for a customer who is feeling tired.”以及最后一段的“Call it the spirit，the soul or the heart.It is something no machine will ever have.”可知，机器人没有灵魂，无法和人进行有效的交流，故选D。答案：D4Whats the main idea of the text?AThe opinion about using man or machine.BMachines give people a lot of convenience.CBeing human service is better than service from machines.DBeing human service cost little money.解析：主旨大意题。文章中作者通过前两段的事实，提出自己的观点：非常喜欢科技带来的生活便利和舒适，但是她不希望机器占据她太多的生活。说出作者对机器和人工服务的看法。答案：A
