To suggest making gifts from ones heart.C. To explain how computers help create gifts.D. To describe the gifts the author has received【答案】41. C
72、42. A 43. D 44. D 45. B【解析】文章体裁为记叙文,主要讲述作者为其父亲制作圣诞礼物的一件小事,通过这件小事告诉读者,真正有价值的礼物不在于价格,而在于是否在用心准备、是否能让接受礼物的人truly appreciate。【41题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across.(我拿出手机看妈妈发来的短信,说我们要去为他
73、买圣诞礼物,就在这时我碰到了他)”可知,作者在读母亲发的手机短信时有了给父亲一份特殊礼物的想法。故C项正确。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的“ My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming. and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me.(我的目光落在一张在怀俄明州拍摄的花的照片上。下面是威廉布莱克的诗。那朵花是一朵孤零零的蒲公英,在蔚蓝的
74、天空下站立,它给了我灵感。) ”可知作者在读手机短信时无意中发现一张配有小诗的鲜花相片,这给了作者灵感。故A项正确。【43题详解】词义猜测题。根据此处前一句中的“The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe;my dad recited it as mush as he did the other.(这首诗是埃德加爱伦坡写的;我爸爸背诵了这首诗,就像他背诵其它诗一样。)”可以看出,划线句句意为:我也把它打了出来,并在网上搜索了它的相关文字的背景信息。it在此句中指的是艾德加艾伦坡写的诗。故D项正确。【44题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“The poem
75、was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my
76、childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.(这首诗的主题是梦,经过寻找,我找到了完美的画面。这幅画是用蓝色、绿色和紫色绘制的,交织在一起,创造了一个梦想的主题和奇迹。当我看着这两首诗通过打印机时,白纸上色的文字塑造了我的童年。我觉得这是我父亲会真正感激的礼物。)”可以看出作者选中了两首诗后又精挑细选了图片,以配合诗歌所表达的主题,最终将其打印出来作为给父亲的圣诞节礼物。故D项正确。【45题详解】推理判断题题。文章开头便提出问题,然后以自己给父亲用心选择礼物的亲身经历告诉大家用心的礼物
77、才是最有价值的。故事前面的引子和故事的结局告诉我们作者讲这个故事的意图是说用心做出的礼物才特别这个理。故B项正确。CENo one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids near Cairo. But a new study suggests they used a little rocknroll. Long-ago builders could have attached wooden pole s to the stones and rolled then across the sand, the scientists
78、say.“Technically, I think what theyre proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And theres no obvious answer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck. The Egyptians so
79、mehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged them along paths. To make the w
80、ork easier, workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle. Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea. Researchers found small amounts of fat, as well as a large amount
81、of stone and the remains of paths.However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way , who led the new study . West said , “I was inspired while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction . I thought , Why dont they just try rol
82、ling the things?“A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides , he realized . That , he notes , should make a block of stone” a lot easier to roll than a square”.So he tried itHe and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram sto
83、ne block. That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground.They wrapped one end of a rope around the block and pulled. The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the block required ab
84、out as much force as moving it along a slippery(滑的)path.West hasnt tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages over sliding. At least, workers wouldnt have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.46. Its widely believed that the stone blocks were move
85、d to the pyramid site by _.A. rolling them on roadsB. pushing them over the sandC. sliding them on smooth pathsD. dragging them on some poles47. The underlined part “lubricated the paths” in Paragraph 4 means_.A. made the path wetB. made the path hardC. made the path wideD. made the path slippery48.
86、 What does the underlined word “it”in Paragraph 7 refer to?A. Rolling the blocks with poles attached.B. Rolling the blocks on wooden wheels.C. Rolling poles to move the blocks.D. Rolling the blocks with fat.49. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West ?A. Because more force is needed for
87、 sliding.B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.C. Because sliding on smooth road is more dangerous.D. Because less preparation on path is needed for rolling.50. What is the text mainly about ?A. An experiment on ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site.B. An application of the method
88、of moving blocks to the pyramid site.C. An argument about different methods of moving blocks to the pyramid site.D. An introduction to a possible new way of moving blocks to the pyramid site.【答案】46. C 47. D 48. A 49. D 50. D【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍一种可能的将石块移到金字塔遗址的新方法。【46题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段的“The most popular
89、 view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths.”可知,最流行的观点是,埃及工人沿着平坦的道路推动石块。由此可知,人们普遍认为,这些石块是通过在平坦的道路上滑动来移动到金字塔遗址的。故选C。【47题详解】词义猜测题。根据第四段的“To make the work easier” 为了使工作更容易。以及下文的“either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle.”可知,工人们可能用湿粘土或牛的脂肪来润滑道路。所以换线词的意思是,这样做是为了让路更加平滑,故选D。【48
90、题详解】词义猜测题。,根据第六段的内容“A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides”可知,方形的石块可以通过在两边绑上木杆而向前滚动。故判断出,it指代的是“把杆绑在石块上,然后滚动石块”故选A。【49题详解】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的“workers wouldnt have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.”可知,工人们不需要搬运牛脂肪或水来平整道路。所以滚动石块不需要有
91、准备工作。故选D。【50题详解】主旨大意题。根据第六段“However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way , who led the new study” 然而,领导这项新研究的物理学家约瑟夫韦斯特(Joseph West)认为,可能有一种更简单的方法,所以文章主要讲述了一种新的把石块移动到金字塔地址的方法。故选D。DRecently, a Scottish grocery store employed a robot. The robot, named Fabio, was part of an
92、 experiment conducted by the Heriot-Watt University, which explores the combination of men and machines. Elena Margiotta, co-owner of the Margiotta supermarket chain, says, “We thought a robot was a great addition that could show the customers that we are always wanting to do something new and excit
93、ing.”Fabios job was to make customers feel welcome and assist them in locating grocery items if asked. Things seemed to start off well. The almost 4-foot-tall humanoid robot greeted customers, talked intelligently about the weather, and even gave hugs and high-fives. Later, its friendliness appeared
94、 to wane when a shopper needed help but received a vague answer. Therefore, store visitors began to seek out human employees for help.Believing it might be better at a job that required more socializing, the shop assigned Fabio to hand out sausage samples. Unfortunately, things did not go well. Whil
95、e a human employee managed to attract 12 customers to try the food in 15 minutes, the robot attracted just two.Since Fabio was not trained for any other job, the grocery store management decided to “fire” the robot a week after it had first reported for duty. The director of the Interaction Lab at H
96、eriot-Watt says, “When we had to put it back in the box, one of employees started crying because they had become emotionally attached to it. It was good in a way because we had thought they would feel threatened by it as it was competing for their job. ” As he later discovered, the tears were not ou
97、t of fondness for Fabio, but it was because the robot freed the human employees from the dull task of responding to customers questions.Although Fabio appears to be different within its family, thousands of other quite similar Pepper humanoid robots employed at various Japanese stores and some store
98、s in America seem to be extremely popular with customers.51. According Elena Margiotta, the shop employed a robot to _.A. reduce the cost of running the shopB. carry out an experimentC. show the intention to changeD. deliver and place the groceries52. What does the underlined word “wane” in Paragrap
99、h 2 probably mean?A. become weaker.B. become more popular.C. become more obvious.D. become less sincere.53. When handing our sausage samples, Fabio _.A. didnt get along well with human employeesB. failed to be understood by customersC. couldnt clearly tell the samples strengthsD. was no match for hu
100、man employees54. According to the passage, the store employees may agree that_.A. Fabio performed well in its jobB. they benefited from Fabios helpC. robots competed with them for the jobD. robots could respond well to customers questions55. What can be implied from the last paragraph?A. Other Peppe
101、r humanoid robots are superior to Fabio.B. Robots-based customer service has a long way to go.C. Scottish people are particular about robot employees.D. Peoples acceptance of robots may vary from culture to culture.【答案】51. C 52. A 53. D 54. B 55. D【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一家超市老板想要使用机器人Fabio来吸引并帮助客人,但效果却不
102、如预期,最终解雇机器人的故事。【51题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Elena Margiotta, co-owner of the Margiotta supermarket chain, says, “We thought a robot was a great addition that could show the customers that we are always wanting to do something new and exciting.”(玛吉奥塔连锁超市的共同老板埃琳娜玛吉奥塔说:“我们认为机器人是一个很好的补充,它可以向顾客展示我们总是想做一些新的和令人兴奋的事情
103、。”)”可知超市聘用机器人是为了向顾客表现出改变的意图,故选C项。【52题详解】词句猜测题。根据第二段“Later, its friendliness appeared to wane when a shopper needed help but received a vague answer. Therefore, store visitors began to seek out human employees for help.(后来,当购物者需要帮助但得到一个含糊不清的回答时,它的友好性似乎wane了。因此,商店访客开始寻求人类员工的帮助。)”可知,到后来Fabio给顾客提供的帮助不如人
104、类店员,所以它的友好性“降低/变弱”了, “wane”意思是变弱,故选A项。【53题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Believing it might be better at a job that required more socializing, the shop assigned Fabio to hand out sausage samples. Unfortunately, things did not go well. While a human employee managed to attract 12 customers to try the food in 15 minu
105、tes, the robot attracted just two.(由于认为做一份需要更多社交活动工作可能更好,商店指派Fabio分发香肠样品。不幸的是,事情并不顺利。一名人类雇员在15分钟内成功吸引了12名顾客来品尝食物,而机器人只吸引了两名顾客。)”可知在分发香肠样品这个工作上Fabiobb不是人类员工的对手,故选D项。【54题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“As he later discovered, the tears were not out of fondness for Fabio, but it was because the robot freed the human em
106、ployees from the dull task of responding to customers questions.(后来他发现,这些眼泪并不是出于对Fabio的喜爱,而是因为机器人把人类员工从回答客户问题的枯燥任务中解放出来。)”可推知店员从Fabio这里获得了工作上的帮助这样的好处,才舍不得Fabio离开而流下眼泪,即商店员工可能会同意他们从Fabio的帮助中受益,故选B项。【55题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Although Fabio appears to be different within its family, thousands of other quite
107、similar Pepper humanoid robots employed at various Japanese stores and some stores in America seem to be extremely popular with customers.(虽然Fabio在其家族中似乎有所不同,但在日本各大商店和美国一些商店中使用的数千个类似Pepper的人形机器人似乎极受顾客欢迎。)”结合全文可知Fabio在此效果不尽人意,但世界上还有其他地方如美国,日本等地可以广泛应用机器人到商店中工作,并且受到欢迎,由此可知,人们对机器人的接受程度可能因文化而异。故选D项。第卷(共3
