• 1、①You may have a house robot that can do housework for you. But are robots really so clever? Let's meet some cool ones. BIG A is a robot as big as a dog. It works at an airport in Alaska to keep birds and other animals away. ER6 is a 1.8-meter-tall robot with no legs. It waves its arms to lead musicians during a show.

    ②Those robots need artificial intelligence(AI) (人工智能). AI is a computer system that can understand languages, make decisions and solve problems. People give it information like books, photos or videos to train it. The more it learns, the better it works.

    ③AI is used in many parts of our life. In hospitals, AI is very good at suggesting treatments (治疗) and can even invent new medicines. To cut down food waste, some schools use AI for students to choose meals. In cities, AI is used to watch out for cars that make black smoke. It works together with the police to stop them and keep the air clean.

    ④AI has made our lives much better in many ways. However, many people are concerned about two main problems. First, they worry that as AI gets smarter, it could replace humans in more jobs, like driving trucks or answering customer questions. This means some people might lose their jobs. Second, some are afraid that if AI becomes too powerful that we can't control it. It might bring danger to humans.

    ⑤Anyway, there is still a long journey for humans and AI.

    根据语篇内容,按要求回答问题。

    (1)、Where does BIG A work?

    (2)、What is AI according to the passage?

    (3)、Why do some schools use AI for students to choose meals?

    (4)、What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? (不超过15个词)

    (5)、What do you want an AI robot to do for you?

  • 2、①Headphones are helpful. Many kids use them. But headphones can be harmful, too. They can cause hearing loss if the volume (音量) is too loud. Studies show that one out of every ten kids in the United States has some hearing loss. The cause is loud noise.

    ②Do you know how we hear? There are cells (细胞) inside the ears that help us hear. We can't see them with our eyes. "We call them hair cells," Jackie Clark said. "They look like hairs standing up." Clark is a scientist at the University of Texas. She studies noises and ears. Sound cannot be seen, but it can make the hair cells move back and forward. Think of the wind in the leaves.

    ③Loud noises can damage (损伤) these cells. And once the cells are damaged, they don't grow back. Sometimes there's tinnitus. "It's like someone is playing the flute (长笛) for a long time," Clark says. It shows we're losing hearing. Tinnitus is not only harmful to our ears, but it can also make us feel uneasy. That's why it's necessary to protect our ears.

    ④How can we protect our ears? According to some research, we'd better keep the volume low when we use our headphones. We should be able to hear sounds around us. And other people shouldn't hear noise from our headphones. "If I can hear what you're listening to when you're wearing your headphones," Clark says, "it's too loud." To protect our ears, keep our headphones at about half volume.

  • 3、When I was fourteen, I made money by cutting grass for the neighbours.

    Mr Ballou hardly paid. Maybe he was short of money. Then, one day, as I was walking by, he asked me to come inside.

    "I haven't paid you," Mr Ballou said, "but perhaps you can choose some books for the work you've done."

    He pointed to the books. His study (书房) looked like a library.

    "What do you read?" Mr Ballou asked.

    "I don't know." Actually, I just read what was in front of me, what I found in the magazines or on the back of food boxes. The idea of choosing a book to read on purpose was new to me.

    He looked at me in surprise, and handed me a book.

    "The Last of the Just," I read. "What's it about?"

    "You tell me later."

    It was my first time to read the world literature (文学), and I was shocked by the power a novel could have. I couldn't express my feelings in words, so when Mr Ballou asked, "Well?" I only replied, "          ."

    "Keep it," he said and gave me Coming of Age in Samoa by anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead.

  • 13、In the past ten years, great progress has been made in technology. It seems like everything has been greatly improved. But there is one thing unlike them. It was invented over 100 years ago but remained unchanged until now. I'm talking about a blind walking stick.

    The white stick has been used by many blind people for a long time. However, it hasn't really been improved, until a blind engineer named Kursat decided to do something to change that. He hoped his invention would help the blind.

    He invented a smart stick called the WeWalk. The smart stick uses built-in speakers and different sensors (传感器) to warn about possible dangers. It helps blind people in navigating (导航) around their environment. It makes their travel much easier. The stick is priced at around $500. It is less than half the price of most smart phones. Most people can afford it. This invention is going to change life a lot for the blind.

    Kursat well understands the difficulties that the blind face. That's because he is blind himself. He decided to put his knowledge of technology into inventing something. It would not only change his life, but also the life of many others.

    "In these days, we are talking about flying cars. But the blind have been using just a simple stick. As a blind person, when I am at the bus stop, I don't know which bus is coming or which stores are around me. Now that kind of information can be provided by the WeWalk," he said, "I believe life of the blind will be much easier and safer."
