We’ve got robots to build cars, carry heavy things, work in dangerous places and explore planets. But things haven’t stopped there.In1986, Honda made a robot called ASIMO. And now, it has been developed greatl y. Standing at 130cm and weighing 54kg, ASIMO is very much like a small astronaut wearing a bag on the back. And he can walk, fight, climb and run fast. Isn’t it wonderful? The worlds first robot teacher is Saya. With her human-like face, sh e can show expressions like happiness, surprise, sadness, dislike, fear and she can eve n smile or show anger at students, which look much like a real teacher’s. To do this, her rubber skin is pulled from the back with motors inside. And her eyes and mouth have wires too. She can also say some simple words like “hello” or “th ank you”.In the UK, the development of robots is exciting. The mini-robots will send food, cl ean floors, collect and throw away waste. These robots can open doors by themselves and stop if anything or anyone is in the way.These mini-robots are very useful for controlling infection(传染).Usually clean and dirty work is done by the same person, but here, you’ll have robots that do “dirty work”, like collecting dirty sheets, or taking away hos pital waste; and youll have robots that do “clean work”, like bringing meals or clea n sheets to patients. The robots have separate work so theres no way for infection, whi ch is great. But of course, robots would not take the place of humans, but would free u p more time for nurses to be with patients. But if this is what it’s like in 2011, what’s it going to be like in 2021?48. In the following, which is ASIMOs behavior?A. Smiling at people, saying “hello”.B. Sending food or opening doors by himself.C. Fighting, climbing or running f ast.49. What makes Saya look real?A. Her face and rich expressions.B. Her clothes and shoes.C. Her walking and running speed.50. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Robots have come a long way since 1986.B. If anyone or anything is in the way, mini-robots will stop.C. Saya looks like a s mall astronaut.51. The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that _______.A. nurses would have more free time with patientsB. robots would not take the pl ace of humansC. mini-robots are useful for controlling infectionEUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger ,but we also affect our water supply in less obvios ways .You may wonder how paving(砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers .It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater. Human activit y is not responsible(负责任的) for all water shortages(短缺). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In th e United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how muc h we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for yo ur drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher only when it i s full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our w ater supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away. 52. Which of t he following is most likely to lead to less groundwater? A. Paving parking lots. B. Using river water.C. Throwing batteries away. 53. What can be inferred from the text ?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet ou r water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size. 54. The last paragraph is intended to .A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. suggest what we do to save water at home 55. The text is mainly about .A. Why paving roads reduces our waterB. how much we depend on water to liveC. how human activity affects our water supply第II卷注意事项:用0.5毫米黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答。
