Its been a long day, so you head home to relax. Youre greeted by a friend whos happy to see you, listens to you talk about rest, tells you a new joke, helps you put away your school stuff (东西), and reminds you to text your cousin happy birthday. And thats before he helps you with your homework.This is your future, and it all starts with a knee-high robot called NAO (pronounced NOW). It kind of looks like you, walks and dances, listens and talks, and even learns and thinks for itself. Its creators predict that the state-of-the-art robot could be a panion at home by the year 2040.This $16,000 robot recognizes human facial features, so it knows who you are. NAO can evenexpress emotions. It represents the new generation of “autonomous” or self-guided robots. These robots can sense, think, and act. Other robots might do two out of the three. For example, a robot might sense things using cameras and think using puters, but with no arms, wheels, or claws, it cant act. Other robots can move and sense things, but cantthink for themselves. These arent self-guided robots. But NAO can do it all. “You can program your puter to give NAO what could be called personality,” says Natanel Dukan of Aldebaran Robotics, the French pany that built NAO. The robot has cute, childlike features a high voice, small body, big eyes, and a large head. “These are things that are known to have an emotional appeal to people,” robot expert Dan Kara says, “NAOs friendly design helps in one of NAOs main functions to teach people how useful personal robots can be. Someday it may help you pass a test!”21. What do we know about NAO from the first two paragraphs?A. It is as tall as humans. B. It is highly intelligent.C. It is widely used in schools now. D. It is designed to help with the housework.22. The author develops the third paragraph mainly _.A. by cause and effect B. by order in time C. by parison D. by process23. According to Dan Kara, NAO is _.A. silent B. low-cost C. lightweight D. user-friendly24. The main purpose of the text is to _.A. ask people to buy the robot B. introduce a new kind of robotC. do an experiment about robots D. pare different kinds of robotsB The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (我在故宫修文物) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie, which came out on in Chinese cinemas Dec. 16, focuses on ordinary people-the restorers (修复者) of relics and antiquities (古董). The stories are told at a slow and leisurely pace, reflecting the restorers work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast. “If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert. A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work require not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily mented. “Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness all these qualities e form thecraftsman spirit.” But unlike the popular idea of stuffy (古板的) experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work. One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.” Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many peoples ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s, and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.25. According to the passage, whats the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City ? A. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people. B. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers. C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers lives. D. To show people how antiques are restored.26. According to Wang Jin, we can learn that _. A. there is no need to do restoration work fast B. antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful C. he often gets tired with his work D. it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration27. The underlined word “humdrum” probably means _. A. boring B. different C. relaxing D. unusual28. The bicycle-riding scene in the documentary is used to _. A. show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers B. show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers. C. remind the audience of the last Qing emperor D. encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the futureCIts time to study like a rock star!
