Were doomed! Doomed! Now that Ive gotten that out of my system, its bee clear that while we may or may not be doomed, the robots are taking over. The latest example is the governments new guidelines for self-driving cars.Tesla, Google and Uber are already testing driverless cars in cities across America. Uber chief executive Travis Kalanick is among those predicting that by 2021, self-driving cars will play a big part in urban settings.Nearly 40,000 people died last year in this nation in automobile-related accidents, and we believes driverless cars can save tens of thousands of lives annually.Makes sense. Robot drivers are less likely to get drunk, drive without a license, text while driving or feel agitated at the scene of a pileup. On the other hand, I wonder how these highly sensitive cars will react, with walkers constantly dashing into the street. Will they jam on the brakes every 10 seconds?But theres a bigger picture. Not only are robots replacing humans behind the wheel, but behind the work desk, in warehouses, senior homes, you name it. Robots arent just taking over in the workplace.The question is, where cant a robot function better than a human? How about writing songs? A robot can go through every bination of notes in record time and e up with a pleasing melody. The lyrics might be a different story. Is a Grammy-winning song co-written by Hank Human and R-3071 in our future?Finally, its only a matter of time until we have robot politicians and presidential candidates. Why not? They can be programmed to be experts in world and domestic affairs and e up with the best solutions without corruption and bad humors.Actually, its too bad such technology isnt available in xx. Pretty sure the robot would win in a landslide.1. What does the underlined word “agitated” mean?A. TiredB. CautiousC. CarefulD. Anxious2. What doubt does the writer have about self-driving cars?A. How passengers behave in it.B. How robot drivers get the licenseC. How they avoid crashing into other carD. How they respond to walkers on a busy street3. The last questions asked in the sixth paragraph reflects the writers .A. confidence in robots, winning Grammy AwardsB. eagerness to listen to songs written by robotsC. doubt about robots ability to write songsD. curiosity about the future Grammy songs4. What might be the most suitable title for the text?A. Robots will control the world in every fieldB. Robots are ing but not soon enoughC. Robots are being used in our daily lifeD. Robots can drive cars and write music【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。作者讲述无人驾驶的汽车和机器人等现代科学技术，从而联想到未来机器人将会代替人类做好一切，并发表了自己的观点。3. A【解析】推理判断题。根据上一段最后一句Robots arent just taking over in the workplace.可推断，第六段作者用问句讲述机器人将要接管人类。由前文对于机器人谱曲写歌的描述：机器人可以很快完成每一个音符的组合，谱写出令人愉悦的旋律可推断最后的问句“在未来获得格莱美奖的歌曲是Hank Human和机器人R-3071合作的吗？”是以问句的形式表明作者相信机器人未来会赢得格莱美奖。故选A。4. B【解析】标题判断题。根据第一段首句Oh my God, the robots are taking over!和最后一段Actually, its too bad such technology isnt available in xx. Pretty sure the robot would win in a landslide.可推断，文章主要讲述机器人时代将要来临但是还没有到来，因此推断B项“机器人将要来到但还不足够快”为最佳标题。故选B。BOur environment isnt as green and beautiful as it should be. There are steel(钢铁) monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, cars producing harmful waste gas, people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet. Facing current environmental problems, people need to do their best to save the earth.You can see many big garbage dustbins in the streets. Theyre not there for a show, but for you to drop your waste. We should realize that what we do does count. So next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window, or “accidentally” drop as you walk down the street, ask yourself how much waste youve been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years.At home, the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps(水龙头) are not leaky(漏的), which would help greatly in scrimping(节省). Another is to use energy-saving lights, and turn them off before you leave the rooms. It is not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.Recycling is a method to make items reusable. Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process. Use your imagination to e up with ways on things that you can use again.Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives, in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older.With environmental protection awareness in mind, we can do what we can, for the results are to have a big effect on the planet. As long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.5. In the first paragraph the author uses “steel monsters” to describe_.A. huge buildingsB. high mountainsC. big factoriesD. characters in fairy stories6. From the fifth paragraph, we can know that _.A. protecting the environment begins with small choresB. protecting the environment should start from childhood.C. wonderful life es from environmental protectionD. protecting the environment benefits the country and the people7. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The more people do their part, the greener the environment will be.B. Selling what you dont want any more is a kind of recycling.C. To protect the environment may help you save some money.D. Your bad habits for the environment are a valuable contribution.8. The passage is mainly about_.A. the use of garbage dustbinsB. how to save water and electricityC. how to save the environmentD. our current environmental problems【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一些如何保护环境的方法。5. C【解析】词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers,”可知，steel monsters遮挡太阳、排出有害气体并将有毒的化学物质排入河流，由此可知，steel monsters指的就是大工厂，故C项正确。. 完形填空（每小题1分，共20分）For me, two of the loveliest words in English are “Life persists”.I1them years ago as a college student, sitting in the library, 2, working on a paper.

How he wishes the music all free!Many people are used to free music being downloaded from the Internet without realizing they have done harm others right. Music artists work very to pose music. If not paid, will lose enthusiasm to go ahead, and gradually we will find beautiful nowhere.【解析】第一处：Internet是独一无二的的事物，前面需要用定冠词the。故Internet前加the。第二处：句意：如图所示，一位音乐发烧友正试图下载他喜欢的歌曲。as引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，指代主句内容，与从句的谓语show之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态。故showing改为showed或shown。第六处：此句中are used to的宾语是free music，后面跟过去分词短语downloaded from the Internet作定语，不表示正在进行。故去掉being。第七处：do harm to是固定搭配，指“对某人或某物造成伤害”。故for改为to。第八处：此处指“努力工作”，用副词hard修饰动词work，而hardly是“几乎不”的意思。故hardly改为hard。第九处：此处的主语指代前面提到的“Music artists”，所以应该用复数形式。故he改为they。第十处：music是不可数名词。不能使用所谓的复数形式。故musics改为music。
