Some experts believe this will happen within in hospital? Some experts believe this will happen within twenty years while other disagree.One London pany, UAS (Universal Automated Systems) has already developed machines that can be used as home helps for old people unable to look after themselves and who are living on their own or in special homes. These machines can now do such things as cooking eggs and cleaning the floor, and the pany says that future models still accept simple voice instructions (指令) and be controlled by a brain that is the equivalent (当量)of the latest IBM microputer. The director of USA, Mr. Henry Jeffries, believes that in the next five to ten years panies will have developed even more sophisticated (复杂的)robots for use in industry. By this time, it is likely that they will also have begun to sell new forms of these machines into ordinary homes. Robots could do a wide range of household tasks, such as preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and so on. By then, the price of such machines may have e down to as little as $ 1000.But Dr. Sandra Lomax, who has done research into artificial intelligence ( 人工智能 ) at Sussex University and MIT (Massachusetts Intelligence of Technology) believes we have a long way to go before we can develop truly intelligent machines.Preparing an omelette (煎蛋)may seem easy enough. But suppose one of the eggs has gone bad, even the most intelligent robot would probably still use it. If something slightly unusual needs doingsomething that requires even a little bit of ordinary human imagination, a robot is useless. They need programming for even the simplest of tasks and are not able to learn from experience. And teaching a robot how to recognize a bad egg is far more difficult than teaching it to prepare the omelette the egg goes into, she says.21. A London pany called UAS has already developed a machine which_.A. can teach languages and care for the patients in hospitalB. can help old people do certain jobs in the houseC. is controlled by microputer brainD. can accept simply voice instructions22. The director of UAS believes that in the next five to ten years new forms of machines will_.A. be able to think with their own brains and do anything with imaginationB. cost much less than $ 1000C. be used more in ordinary homes than in industryD. do more housework23. Dr. Sandra Lomax thinks that_.A. no robot will ever be able to prepare an omeletteB. a robot will soon be able to do unusual house work people cant doC. we can programme a robot to learn from experienceD. making an omelette is easier for a robot than recognizing a bad egg24. Which of the following statements is true according to this passage?A. All experts agree that there will soon be robots that can teach languages and look after patients in hospital.B. Dr. Sandra Lomax believes there are very great problems in developing intelligent robots.C. Robots have taken an important part in peoples daily life.D. Such machines are already being sold into ordinary homes.25. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Servants of the FutureB. How to Make RobotsC. Robots More Clever Than ManD. The Household Tasks in Future BWe often think of future. We often wonder what the world would be like in a hundred years time.Think of space, perhaps a permanent (永久的) station on the moon will have been set up. Perhaps people will be able to visit the moon as tourists. Cheap rockets for space travel will have been developed, permitting long journeys throughout the solar system (太阳系 ). When that time es, people will be taking holidays in space and visiting other planets. Great progress will have been made in medicine, too. Perhaps a cure will have been discovered for the most terrible of all diseases cancer . Pollution is a problem we must solve. In a hundred years time it will have been controlledAll the world will have been developedeven Antarctica. There will be large cities in Antarctica. We already have supersonic (超音速)flight, but in a hundred years time we will have supersonic land travel as well.We will have used up most of earths land to build our cities, so floating cities will have been built. The Japanese already have plans for cities of this kind. And there will be cities under the sea. The first of these will have been pleted.26. We will have developed _in a hundred years time, permitting long journeys all over the solar system.A. cheap rockets for space travelB. a planeC. a spaceship D. a satellite27. Man will also have supersonic land travel_.A. in a yearB. about half a century laterC. in the year 2050D. about a century later28.

Japan will first build floating citiesD. earths land is in dangerCApple a Day May Poison ChildrenChildren who eat an apple or pear a day may be exceeding (超过)the pesticide (杀虫剂) safety limit because of remains on the fruit, according to research.Using date of the British Department of Environment on pesticides on fruit collected from supermarkets) scientists thought that each day some children would get a poisonous level of pesticides.The research, published on Sunday, says the government repeatedly claims that the levels of pesticide are safe because, instead of measuring individual apples, researchers buy 10, crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safe. This is the internationally agreed method of checking remains.But government figures show that the pesticide is not averagely spread across the batch (一批),and one or two apples could contain 90% or more of the pesticide in the batch.It used mathematical modeling to measure exposure (暴露) to pesticides for children aged between 18 months and four years old. The pesticides involved can destroy childrens hormones and some are suspected (怀疑)of causing cancer.The good news for British fruit growers is that samples grown in this country had lower residue level than imported fruit, so buying home-produced fruit will reduce the danger, said Emily Diamand, one of the Earths senior food researchers and one of the authors of the report.29. The reason why Apple a day may poison children is that_.A. there are some pests in the appleB. children would get a poisonous level of pesticides because of the remains on the appleC. there are always more pesticides on the apples produced in BritainD. the apple is too hard for children to eat30.

Some remains of the pesticides are suspected of causing cancer.D. For safety, wed better not import apples from Britain.I完形填空It seemed that nothing had happened when dawn came. But they soon 1 that the entire boat was surrounded in ice. The captain had fallen 2 so the rest of the crew hurriedly woke him .

Once you get him out of the water, if he isnt breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is pletely destroyed. Support his neck tilt(使翘起)his head back and press his chin (下巴) upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. If that doesnt work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils (鼻孔) together with your fingers. Open your mouth and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until help arrives.To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and nose and gently blow into his mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey color and you can feel no pulse, pressing is the last chance of saving his life.With arms straight, rock forward, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Dont be too hard, or you may break a rib(肋骨). Check how effective you are by seeing if his color improves or his pulse bees independent of your chest pressing. If this happens, stop the pressing. Or continue until rescue arrives.21._is the most important thing in savinga drowning person.A. Mouth-to-mouth breathingB. RepeatingC. SpeedD. Removing blocks in his throat22.

Saving the DyingBWhat will life be like in 100 years time? By then, the population of the world will have doubled We will have run out of many essential materials like oil and coal. We may even have run out of water to drink. Some experts believe that we will be living like chickens. We will be living in little boxes and eating artificial food.Some experts are pessimistic (悲观的). Others are far more optimistic. They say that life will be far better than it is today. We may be living in beautiful cities. We may be getting far more sunlight, breathing fresher air, living in better buildings and leading far better lives than we are today.Life will certainly have bee far more mechanized (机械化的). It may even have bee too mechanized. Mechanisation has already caused quite a few problems and will cause still more. For example, many jobs will have been automated That is, machines will be doing many jobs that people do today. People will no longer be able to learn only one job in their lifetimes. They will have to learn several. Many of the jobs that young people are doing today will have bee unnecessary by the time they are forty. This problem will have grown in 100 years time.25. According to this passage, in future_.A, there will be twice as many people as todayB. there will be fewer people than todayC. the earth can provide people with enough natural resources D. the earth can provide enough coal and oil26. What problem does mechanisation cause in the future?A. Machine will control peoples life.B. People no longer need to work.C. More people will be jobless.D. People will have to learn several jobs through their life.27. The writers attitude towards future automation is_.A. indifferent B. negativeC. concerned D. more than happyCEach child has his individual (个人的)pattern of social, as well as physical, development. Some of it depends on his home life and his relationships with the people who love him. Children in large families learn how to get along with others through normal brother-sister play and tussle (打头). An only child, on the other hand, may have to learn his lessons in social living through hard experiences on the playground or in the classroom. Twins who always have one another to lean on may be slow in responding to others because they do not need anyone else.A child who is constantly scolded and made to feel he does everything wrong may have a difficult time developing socially. He may be so afraid of displeasing the adults around him that he keeps to himself( where he cant get into trouble) or he may take the opposite route and go out of his way to create trouble Like the deserted child, he too may return to infantile(幼稚的)pleasures, developing habits that will satisfy him, but create barriers(障碍)toward social contact.28. The passage implies that which of the following may have the earliest time learning to get along with others?A. An only childB. A child from a large family.C. Twins.D. Children who are continually scolded.29. Which of the following is implied by the passage?A. Too much scolding of children may make their social development difficult.B. All children developed in the same ways.C. Children who are constantly scolded may learn to get with others quickly.D. Deserted children often exhibit quicker social development.30. We can inferred from the passage that_.A continual scolding is not harmful to the childB. continual scolding holds back healthy social developmentC. continual scolding has no effect on obeying ordersD. continual scolding has no effect on physical development
