Choose the best and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer S heet. Passage 1Whether 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 doesn’t 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 company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the cus tomers find items and help guide them to the product’s 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.31.How are social robots different from household robots ?A.They can control their emotions.B. They are more like humans.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.32.What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3 ?municate with you and perform operations.B.Answer your questions and make r equests.C.Take your family pictures and deliver milk.D.Obey your orders and remind you to take p ills.33.What can Oshbot work as ?A.A language teacher.B. A tour guide.C. A shop assistant.D. A private nurse.34.We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will .A.train employeesB. be our workmatesC. improve technologiesD. take the place of workers35.What does the passage mainly present ?A.A new design idea of household robots.B. Marketing strategies for social robots.C. Information on household robots.D. An introduction to social robots.Passage 2Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Light house Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking meto report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.36.What do we know about the author?A.His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge.B.His dream at university was to become a volunteer.C.He took pride in having c ontributed to the world.D.He felt honored to study English literature.37.According to the Paragraph 2, it is most likely that the author .A.discussed his decision with his familyB.asked previous volunteers about voluntary w orkC.attended special training to perform difficult tasksD.felt sad about having to leave his family and friends38.In his application for the volunteer job, t he author .A.participated in many d iscussionsB.went through challenging survival testsC.wrote quite a few papers on voluntary w orkD.faced strong competition from other candidates39.On arrival at the village, the author was .A.asked to lead a farming teamB. sent to teach in a schoolhouseC. received warmly by local villagersD. arranged to live in a separate house40.What can we infer from the author’s experiences in Nigeria?A.He found some difficulty adapting to the local culture.B.He had learned to communicate in the local language.C.He had overcome all his weaknesses before he left for home.D.He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students.Passage 3When asked about happiness, we usually think of someth.ng extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫无掩饰的).In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joy—love, marriage, birth—also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated(复杂的).My definition of happiness is "the capacity for enjoyment". The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which 1 love. When the kids and my husband came home, 1 enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don't think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we've got to have. We're so self-conscious about our "right" to it that it's making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily h appier.Happiness isn't about what happens to us―it's about how we see what happens to us. It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It's not wishing for what we don't have, but enjoying what we do possess.41.As people grow older, they .A.feel it harder to experience happinessB.associate their happiness less with othersC.will take fewer risks in pursuing happinessD.tend to believe responsibility means happiness42.What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and6 ?A.She cans little about ha own health.B.She enjoys the freedom of trawling.C.She is easily pleased by things in daily life.D.She prefers getting pleasure from housework.43.What can be inferred from Paragraph 7 ?A.Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.B.Psychologists’ opinion is well proved by Grandma's case.C.Grandma often found time for social gatherings.D.Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life.44.People who equal happiness with wealth and success .A.consider pressure something blocking their wayB.stress their right to happiness too muchC.arc at a loss to make correct choicesD.arc more likely to be happy45.What can be concluded from the passage ?A.Happiness lies between the positive and the negative.B.Each nun is the master of his own fate.C.Success leads to happiness.D.Hippy is he who is content.Passage 4Close your eyes for a minute and imagine what life would be like if you had a hundred dollars less. Also imagine what it would be like spending the rest of your life with you eyes closed. Imagine having to read this page, not with your eyes but with your finger-tips.With existing medical knowledge and skills, two-thirds of the world’s 42 million blind should not have to suffer. Unfortunately, rich countries posses most of this knowledge, while developing countries do not.ORBIS is an international non-profit organization which operates the world’s only flying teaching eye hospital.
