单元综合测评(一)(时间:100分钟;满分:120分).阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AWhether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesnt just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The companys “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the products location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,”said Breazeal.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了社交机器人的一些情况。社交机器人在接下来的几年内将会越来越普遍,社交机器人与家用机器人的区别在于它可以与人面对面交流,可以应用于教育、医疗保健等领域。1How are social robots different from household robots?AThey can control their emotions.BThey are more like humans.CThey do the normal housework.DThey respond to users more slowly.【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段第二句可以得知,B项所述“它们看起来更像人类”符合题干要求。文中提到它们能识别人类的情绪,而没有提到“它们能够控制自己的情绪”,故A项所述错误;C项“它们能做常规的家务”是描述家用机器人的,不符合题干要求;文中第二段末句提到.respond more appropriately to the user.即这种机器人在回应使用者时会更贴切,而不是“更慢”,D项所述错误。【答案】B2What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?ACommunicate with you and perform operations.BAnswer your questions and make requests.CTake your family pictures and deliver milk.DObey your orders and remind you to take pills.【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段的第三句及末句可知,Jibo机器人在服从人们的指令的同时也能提醒人们按时吃药,D项所述符合题干要求。A项中的“做手术”在文中未涉及;文中第三段第三句话提到机器人可以回答我们的问题,但没有提到它可以向我们提出请求,故B项所述错误;C项中的“送牛奶”在文中未涉及。【答案】D3What can Oshbot work as?AA language teacher.BA tour guide.CA shop assistant.DA private nurse.【解析】推理判断题。根据文中第五段的第二句话可知,Oshbot机器人被应用于商店以服务顾客,故C项“商店营业员”符合题干要求。A项“语言学老师”、B项“导游”与D项“私人保姆”均为干扰项。【答案】C4We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will Atrain employeesBbe our workmatesCimprove technologiesDtake the place of workers【解析】推理判断题。根据末段中的第二句话.but to work alongside other employees.可知,社交机器人将会成为我们的同事,B项所述正确。A项“培训员工”、C项“改进科技”与D项“取代工人”均不符合原文意思。【答案】BBBelow is a selection about Guinness World Records.Top 6 Unusual Guinness World RecordsFastest 100 m running on all foursThe 2008 Guinness World Records Day was, according to GWR, their biggest day of recordbreaking ever, with more than 290,000 people taking part in record attempts in 15 different countries. Kenichi Itos record attempt was part of this special day. He is just another example of Japanese with “super powers”. His “super power” is to run with great speed on all fours. Kenichi Ito ran 100 m on all fours in 18.58 seconds. The Japanese set this record at Setagaya Kuritsu Sogo Undojyo, Tokyo, in 2008.Most people inside a soap bubbleThe Discovery Science Center in Santa Ana, California celebrated this year the 15th anniversary of the Bubble (泡泡) Festival.

The Yang family cooperated with the Discovery Science Center to set a new Guinness World Record for most people inside a soap bubble and they succeeded.The family that has been working with soap bubbles for 27 years created a huge soap bubble and got 118 people inside it. The record was set on April 4, 2014.Longest ears on a dogA bloodhound from Illinois has the longest ears ever measured a dog. The right ear is 13.75 inches long and the left one 13.5 inches. The dog named Tigger earned this title in 2004 and is owned by Christina and Bryan Flessner.Mr. Jeffries is the previous record holder of this title. Each of his ears measured approximately 11.5 inches long. His grandfather used to hold this amazing world record, but when he died Mr. Jeffries took over.Most living generationsDid you ever wonder what is the Guinness World Record for most living generation in one family? Seven is the answer.The ultimate authority on recordbreaking mentions on the website that the youngest greatgreatgreatgreat grandparent of this family was Augusta Bung “aged 109 years 97 days, followed by her daughter aged 89, her granddaughter aged 70, her great granddaughter aged 52, her greatgreat granddaughter aged 33 and her greatgreatgreat granddaughter aged 15 on the birth of her greatgreatgreatgreat grandson on January 21, 1989”Most Tshirts worn at onceBelieve it or not, there is a record also for this category.

He dethroned the Swedish Guinness Record holder who wore 238 Tshirts.Heaviest pumpkinGuinness World Records confirmed on October 9,2010 that a gigantic pumpkin (南瓜) grown in Wisconcin was officially the worlds heaviest. It weighed 1,810 pounds 8 ounces and was unveiled by Chris Stevens at the Stillwater Harvest Festival in Minnesota. Stevens pumpkin was 85 pounds heavier than the previous one, another huge pumpkin grown in Ohio. The proud farmer said his secret is a precise of rain, cow mature, good soil, sea grass and fish emulsion. Some of the worlds heaviest pumpkins, including the record bolder, were on public display at the Bronx Botanical Gardens in New Yost for a dozen days.【语篇解读】这是一篇实用文体。介绍了六项世界吉尼斯纪录。5Why is Kenichi Ito described a man with a “super power”?AHe set a good example to all Japanese.BHe made record attempts in 15 different countries.CHe set a new record for “Fastest 100 m running on all fours”DHe participated in the 2008 Guinness World Records Day activities.【解析】事实细节题。答案就在“His super power is to run with great speed on all fours.

Parents who lose children in accidents may be able to clone “copies”to replace them then.Although any attempt to clone an entire human would raise complex moral issues, the biologist claimed people would soon overcome their concerns if the technique became medically useful. Cloning was regarded with extreme doubts when it was first developed but became widely accepted after the birth of Louise Brown, the first “test tube baby”. He said, “When my first frog experiment was done, an American reporter asked how long it will be before these things can be done in mammals or humans. I said,Well, it could be anywhere between 10 years and 100 yearshow about 50 years?It turned out that it wasnt far off the mark as far as Dolly was concerned. Maybe the same answer is appropriate.”Sir John added that cloning a human being effectively means making an identical twin, and doctors would therefore simply be“copying what nature has already produced”The average vote on allowing parents of deceased children, who are no longer fertile (能生育的), to create another using the mothers eggs and skin cells from the first child, thinking the technique was safe and effective, is 60 percent in favor.The reasons for “no” are usually that the new children would feel they were some sort of a replacement for something.【语篇解读】诺贝尔医学奖得主英国科学家John称,那些在事故中失去子女的父母将能在未来50年内借助克隆技术让他们的子女“重生”。8Sir.John predicted the human cloning would be a reality in at most.A100 yearsB60 yearsC50 yearsD10 years【解析】细节理解题。依据文章第一段可知,John表示,在未来的50年内,克隆技术将可以成功地应用于人类。故选C项。【答案】C9According to the text, which statement is NOT true?ALouise Brown is the first “test tube baby”BHuman cloning is still a controversial topic.CSir John is positive about the future of human cloning.DHuman cloning is creating something that didnt exist before.【解析】正误判断题。依据第二段中的“after the birth of Louise Brown, the firsttest tube baby”可排除A项;文章最后一段说明克隆人类赞成者占6成,但依旧存在争议,故排除B项;第二段中Sir John的话表明,他对克隆人类充满了希望,故排除C项;第二段的最后一句说明克隆技术只能克隆已经存在的人。【答案】D10The underlined word “identical”probably means“ ”AsameBspecialCnewDclear【解析】词义猜测题。依据第二段中的“doctors would therefore simply be copying what nature has already produced”可知,医生只是复制已经存在的人,故选A项。【答案】A11What does the text mainly talk about?AThe life of Sir John.BPrediction on human cloning.CViews on human cloning.DAchievements in human cloning.【解析】主旨大意题。作者在文中讲述了去年获得诺贝尔医学奖的英国科学家John对克隆人类的前景的预测。【答案】BD(2015天津高考)One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Childrens Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the books cover was a beagle which looked identical (相同的) to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mothers call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous”(奇迹般的) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者小时候阅读能力很差。一次,作者无意间发现了一本其内容与作者自己的一次经历大致相同的书,不经意间把它读完,其人生也由此发生了很大改变。12The authors mother told him to borrow a book in order to Aencourage him to do more walkingBlet him spend a meaningful summerChelp cure him of his reading problemDmake him learn more about weapons【解析】细节理解题。第一段末句提到This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem inability to read.,即作者的妈妈让他去借一本书,是想攻克他阅读障碍的问题,C项所述符合题干要求。A项“鼓励他多走路”、B项“让他度过一个有意义的暑假”、D项“让他学到更多关于武器的知识”均为干扰项。【答案】C13The book caught the authors eye because Ait contained pretty pictures of animalsBit reminded him of his own dogChe found its title easy to understandDhe liked childrens stories very much【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可以得知,这本书吸引作者的地方首先是封面一只比格犬的图片,这让作者想起了自己曾经拥有的与之类似的比格犬。B项所述符合题干要求。文中未提到书中包含了很多精美的动物图片,故A项错误;文中未提及书的题目易懂,故C项错误;D项“他很喜欢儿童故事”也并未在文中提及。【答案】B14Why could the author manage to read the book through?AHe was forced by his mother to read it.BHe identified with the story in the book.CThe book told the story of his pet dog.DThe happy ending of the story attracted him.【解析】推理判断题。文中第二、三、四段的内容主要叙述了作者的一次经历与书中故事内容惊人的一致,即B项“他把书中的故事等同于自己的经历了”,因此他能够设法读完这本书,故选择B项。文中未提及作者妈妈的逼迫,故A项错误;故事中的比格犬与被送人的作者的比格犬类似,但描述的不是作者的比格犬,故C项错误;D项“故事中圆满的结局吸引了他”并不是作者设法读完故事的原因。【答案】B15What can be inferred from the last paragraph?AThe author has become a successful writer.BThe authors mother read the same book.CThe authors mother rewarded him with books.DThe author has had happy summers ever since.【解析】推理判断题。根据末段的倒数第二句话.she was proud that her son.authored his own books.可以得知,作者的妈妈对自己的儿子读了很多书、创作出版了自己写的书、文章、诗歌和小说等感到很自豪,由此可以推知,作者成为了一名成功的作家,A项所述符合题干要求。B项“作者的妈妈读了同样一本书”、C项“作者的妈妈奖励给他书”、D项“作者自那之后度过了很多快乐的暑期”均为干扰项。【答案】A.阅读填句(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 【导学号:15680036】(2016辽宁抚顺二中高二期中)May the first is an important date in the college admission process in the United States.
