A robot created by Washington State University (WSU) scientists could help elderly people with dementia (痴呆) and other limitations live independently in their own homes. The Robot Activity Support System or RAS, uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities. It navigates (定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find peopleon its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen."RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment, as the need for help is detected, " said Bryan Minor, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently, an estimated 50 percent of adults over the age of 85 need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly ﹩2 trillion. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment. They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently."While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial results with RAS have been promising, " Minor said. "The next step in the research will be to test RAS' performancewith a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts, video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot."(1)How does RAS serve elderly people?________A Through sensors.B Through objects.C Through a mobilerobot. D Through their daily activities..(2)What can we know about RAS?________A It is the first robot used in daily life.B Its function remains to be tested.C It can locate people and do any task.D It can cook for owners on its own..(3)What's Minor's attitude toward the future of RAS?________A Doubtful.B Negative.C Optimistic.D Uncertain..(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?________A Elderly people leave the nursing home.B Smart Home Tests first elder﹣Care robot.C RAS, the first robot to make home smart.D Older adults have benefited from RAS.四、任务型阅读(共2题;共18分)以下文章节选自《夏洛特的网》,阅读并回答问题.5.

"You watch and see what he does."Carrying a bottle of milk, Fern sat down under the apple tree inside the yard. Wilbur ranto her and she held the bottle for him while he sucked.

As a result,our handwriting is not as good as it was in the past. In order to protect our Chinese characters and write both nicely and neatly,we'd like to offer some suggestions:We should spend less time online so that we can have more time to read books and newspapers. We'd better form the habit of practicing calligraphy and keeping diaries every day. Besides,it is better to write letters to our relatives and friends by hand rather than send emails.As the saying goes,“The style is the man.”Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to us students. So please pay more attention to our handwriting in the future.Let's take action now!Students' Union。

We decided to stop at a local gas station to get coffee and something to snack on since it was a good hour and a half before we got home.When we were done, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a man standing outside in front of the building. He was a homeless man with worn clothes and it looked like he had gone in and gotten himself some coffee or something warmto drink since it was cold this time of the year. He must have not had enough money to get something to eat.Then a dog walked up to the front of the building. I could tell she was a “she”, because you could tell that she had baby dogs. She was terribly in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her baby dogs would not make it.I and my wife sat there and looked at her. We noticed that people walked by and didn’t even pet her, like most people do when they walk by an animal in front of a store. We still did not do anything. But the homeless man, who I thought did not buy himself anything to eat, went back into the store. And what he did brought tears to me and my wife. He had gone into the store and with what money he may have had, bought a can of dog food and fed that dog.This story plays a great part in our lives. You see, that was Mother’s Day weekend. And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too.It took a homeless man, to show me what I should have done. He made me a better man that day.4. The homeless man only had something to drink because ________.A. he felt cold that dayB. he was thirsty onlyC. the store only provided drinksD. he didn’t have enough money for food5. Seeing what the poor man did for the dog, the author and his wife ________.A. were puzzledB. were indifferentC. were greatly movedD. regretted they hadn’t done an ything6. If the homeless man hadn’t given the dog food to eat,she and her babies would ________.A. not have to dieB. not surviveC. have to attack peopleD. lose their homes7. Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?A. Animals Are Parents Too.B. A Lucky Mother Dog.C. Mother’s Day Weekend.D. A kind Homeless Man.CThe African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth , is of great importance to African ecosystem (生态系统).Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and- savanna(大草原) surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地).It is the elephant’s great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.8. What is the passage mainly about?A. Disappearance of African elephants.B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.C. The effect of African elephants’ search for food.D. The eating habit of African elephants.9. What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean?A. Fixing the time.B. Worsening the state.C. Improving the quality.D. Deciding the conditions.10. What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?A. They result from the destruction of rain forests.B. They provide food mainly for African elephants.C. They are home to many endangered animals.D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.11. The passage is developed mainly by .A. showing the effect and then explaining the causesB. pointing out similarities and differencesC. describing the changes in space orderD. giving examplesDNow, we know that if we do not get enough vitamins, we are at risk of developing a number of diseases. As a result, vitamin supplements(补品),though expensive, are popular with people who worry that they are not getting enough vitamins from the foods they eat. But contrary to what many people think, medical experts have found little evidence that most supplements do anything to improve health or protect against disease.In fact, medical experts warn that taking too many of some vitamins can be harmful. For example, too much vitamin E can cause bleeding. People should discuss what vitamins they take with their doctors, as some vitamins can produce harmful side effects when mixed with medicines.Experts, however, do say that sometimes vitamins can help prevent disease. People who know they lack a particular vitamin should take vitamin supplements. Some older adults, for example, may not have enough vitamin B-twelve. This is because, as people get older, their body loses its ability to take it from foods. Also, people who spend much time inside may need some extra vitamin D as the skin makes this vitamin from sunlight.Different vitamins are found in different foods. Vitamin A is found in fish liver oil. It is also in the yellow part of eggs. Sweet potatoes, carrots and other darkly colored fruits and vegetables contain substances that the body can change into vitamin A. Vitamin B-twelve is found in green leafy vegetables and other foods, like fruits.Vitamin K can be found in pork products.In fact, for most people, a balanced diet can ensure enough of the vitamins our bodies need. So, it is important for us to eat a mixture of foods every day to ensure that we get enough vitamins our bodies need.12.Vitamin supplements are popular with people because ________.A. people fear that a lack of vitamins will lead to diseaseB. they contain more vitamins than the foods people eatC. food does not provide enough vitamins people needD. people mistakenly think that they are good for their health13. From the passage, we can learn that medical experts advise people _________.A.never to take any vitamin supplementsB.to depend only on food for their vitaminsC.not to take any vitamins together with medicinesD.to consult doctors before taking vitamin supplements14. For people who lack Vitamin B-twelve, they can eat more from _______.A. sweet potatoesB. pork productsC. green leafy vegetablesD. eggs15. What would be the main idea of the passage?A. Vitamins are important to our health.B. Vitamin supplements do harm to our health.C. Getting enough vitamins through a balanced diet.D. Lacking vitamins can cause many diseases.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stairs.She was soon out of breath.“I suppose I had better go to the doctor.” she thought.She went to the doctor and told him her problem.“I'm not at all surprised.” he said, “I know what your problem is.” He examined her and then gave her some advice.“If you don’t do what I say, Mrs Parker,” he said, “You will have a heart attack.It could kill you.”Ellen was very worried as she left the doctor’s.She knew that she had to take his advice but that it would not be easy and it would take time.The next day she went shopping.The first shop she went into was a butcher shop.“I'd like ten pounds of steak, please.” she said.“Certainly, madam.” the butcher replied and went into the cold room and found a large piece of steak.He brought the huge piece of meat back into the shop and placed it on the scale.“That's just ten pounds.” he said.“That's big enough.” Mrs Parker said.The butcher worked out the price.“At $4.99 a pound that will be $49.90, please.Would you like me to cut it up into smaller pieces for you?”“Oh, I don't want to buy the meat.” Mrs Parker said.“If you don't want to buy it,” the butcher replied angrily, “Why did y ou ask me to get it for you?”“My doctor told me that I am too heavy and have to lose ten pounds.I wanted to see what ten pounds of meat looked like.”41.Why did Ellen Parker visit the doctor?A.She had a

Bagamo.They said his mouth looked like a large bag.Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music.Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians.Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth.Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together.”Armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号)at a boy’s home.In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician.He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River.At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians.Armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal.In 1922 he went to Chicago.There, the tale of Louis Armstrong begins.From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went.Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.His cornet playing had a deep humanity (仁爱) and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jaz z style and also one of the best-knownand most admired people in the world.His death, on July 6,1971, was headline news around the world.43.Armstrong was called Pops because he ______.A.looked like a musician B.was a musician of much influence C.showed an interest in music D.traveled to play modern music44.The third paragraph is developed ______A.by space B.by examples C.by time D.by comparison45.Which statement about Armstrong is true?A.His tale begins in New Orleans.B.He was born before jazz was invented.C.His music was popular with his listeners.D.He learned popular music at a boy’s home.46.Which

D.The Spread of Popular Music.CIf you’re a male and you’re reading this, congratulations: you’re a survivor.According to statistics, you are more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer as a woman, and nine times more likely to die of AIDS.Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia, you’ll die on average five years before a woman.There are many reasons for this --- typically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke --- but perhaps more importantly, men don’t go to the doctor.“Men aren’t seeing doctors as often as they should,” says Dr.Gullotta, “this is particularly so for the over-40s, whendisease tend to strike.” Gullotta says a healthy man should visit th e doctor every year or two.For those over 45, it should be at least once a year.Two months ago Gullotta saw a 50-year-old man who had delayed doing anything about his smoker’s cough for a year.“When I finally saw him it had already spread and he has since died from lung cancer,” he says, “Earlier detection and treatment may not have cured him, but it would have prolonged his life.”According to a recent survey, 95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70% of men in the same age group.“A lot of men think they’re undefeatable,” Gullota says, “They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, ‘Geez, if it could happen to him…”Then there’s the ostrich approach.“Some men are scared of what mig ht be there and would rather not know,” says Dr.Ross Cartmill.“Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies,” Cartmill says.He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups.Regular check-ups for men would inevitably place strain on the public purse, Cartmill says, “ But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases.Besides, the ultimate cost is far greater: it is called premature death.”47.Why does the author congratulate his male readers at the beginning of the passage?A.They are more likely to survive serious diseases today.B.Their average life span has been considerably extended.C.They have lived long enough to read this article.D.They are sure to enjoy a longer and happier life.48.What does the author state is the most important reason men die five yearsearlier on average than women?A.Men drink and smoke much more than womenB.Men don’t seek medical care as often as womenC.Men aren’t as cautious as women in face of dangerD.Men are more likely to suffer from fatal diseases.49.Which of the following best completes the sentence ‘Geez, if it could happen to him…’A.it could happen to me, too B.I should avoid playing golfC.I should consider myself lucky D.it would be a big misfortune50.What does Cartmill say about regular check-ups for men?A.They may increase public expenses.B.They will save money in the long run.C.They may cause psychological strains on men.D.They will enable men to live as long as women.DLi Hua has just come back from the US and intends to give some of his relatives mentioned in 51-55 some books as gifts.He brings back

Dear Mr. Principal,I learned the news on TV that an accident was happened to the Chinese students in a PE class. I suggest that our school organizes a first aid course, that is very useful. The reasons why a first aid course is necessary are as follows: w e students lack first aid knowledges. A first aid course can’t satisfy our need. Beside, it will give information about many situations and give us the chance to practice first aid treatments.As for the course, they can be given monthly. The course should main include the practice of first aid treatments. It would better if the experts in first aid were introduced to instructing the course.Yours,Peter Dear Mr. Principal,I learned the news on TV that an accident washadhappened to the Chinese students in a PE class.

I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs.I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college.I let my mom and dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination.This didn't changeeven when I went to college either.I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith, it was only to increase my own happiness. I married after graduation and decided to start a family.Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul.Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way.l found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people.In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.Still, I didn't give up on happiness. I knew that there must be a way to find it. I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires. The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love.I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.Carolyn Arends wrote:"The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets. The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing." So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.24.What do we know about the author from the first paragraph?A.He often helped his brother with housework.B.He studied hard for his family.C.He was concerned about his family.D.He put his own needs above others'.25.What did the author realize after he suffered in life?A.Spoiled people can't survive the hardship of lifeB.Spoiled people are never happy in life.C.Life is cruel to spoiled people.D.Selfishness is helpful.26.What can be inferred from the passage?A.The author loved kids.B.When caring for his baby, the author got inspired.C.The author realized the importance of happiness.D.The author often fed his baby.27.Which can be the best title of the passage?A.Loving Others, a Way to Happiness B.The Elder One Grows, the More He Gets C.Help Others, Help Oneself D.Keep Growing to Live a Happy LifeCIf you thought pilots dimmed(调暗)the lights before takeoff to give you some shuteye, think again. Believe it or not, the dim lighting could actually help save your life in case of a plane emergency.The dimmed lights before taking off the runway and landing are a flight precaution used to help passengers' eyes adjust quicker during an emergency escape. “Going from a brightly lit environment to one that's completely dark would require some time for our eyes to focus and see the escape sli de,” Alice Theriault, service director for Air Canada wrote in a press statement. “Since we need to have all the seconds on our side in the event of an emergency, dimming the lights is one of many steps we take to ensure the safety of our customers.”The phenomenon that your eyes see those strange speckles (小斑点) as your sight adjusts to a dark place after being in a light place is called dark adaptation. It normally takes our eyes about 20 to 30 minutes to see best in a dark room. The brighter the lights, the longer it takes for our eyes to adjust, which is why dimming the plane lights could shorten your “dark adaptation” time since you haven't been sitting under fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯) all flight.Not only does dimming lights add valuable time to the escape process, it reduces the tension on your eyes if you need to look outside, or see the emergency lighting along the passage. “It helps keep you in the right direction.” Patrick Smith, an airline pilot and author of Cockpit Confidential told The Tele graph. “It also makes it easier for flight attendants to assess any outside risks, such as fire or debris, that might affect an escape.” So next time a pilot dims the lights, just know it's for your safety, even though it creates a gentle atmosphere for your takeoff into the sky.28.The lights are turned down before take off to help passengers_______.A. take a short breakB. escape in time of emergencyC. create a warm atmosphereD. adapt their eyes to the bright environment29. What is one of the roles of shortening “dark adaptation” time?A. Slowing down the landing.B. Adjusting the plane lights.C. Keeping passengers calm.D. Helping the crew judge outside risks.30. What does the underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Dimming lightsB. The escape processC. Reducing tensionD. The passage.31. What is the text mainly about?A. A tip of air travel.B. An emergency event on a plane.C. A warning message on a plane.D. An explanation of an airline safety measure.DImagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there.Sounds unusual, doesn't it? But it's not that unrealistic, with the development of China’s high-speed railway system. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and finally Eastern Europe.China is planning to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore.If China’s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could rush from London to Beijing within two days. The new syst em would still follow China’s high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to run 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes.China’s bullet train, the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the World’s fastest averag e speed. It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours. Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety and maintenance of railway tracks.So, it’s important to pay attenti on to every detail. But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on longer railway construction.China prefers that the other countries provide natural resources rather than financial investment. Resources from those countries could flood into China to support development.It’ll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will certainly create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries.For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop China’s far west. We predict that in the coming decades, millions of people will move to the western parts, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west. And they’ll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.32. According to the passage, the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is ____.A. financial problemsB. safety of the systemC. technical issuesD. maintenance of railway tracks33. What’s the author’s attitude towards China’s high-speed railway plan?A. PositiveB. NegativeC. DoubtfulD. Critical34. China’s new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because__________ .A. China and the countries involved will get much-needed resourcesB. China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysC. China will develop its railway system and communication with other countriesD. foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation, business and tourism35. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. International Railway NetworkB. High-speed Bullet TrainsC. Big Railway DreamsD. New Railway Standards.第三部分:完形填空 (共20小题,每小题1.5分, 满分30分)阅读下面短文。
