A
How intelligent can a computer be? May be you can get the answer after reading the following
passage about a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.
If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can recite
many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.
He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US.
However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter
Child’s age returns, “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives, “In a
clean room in a high-tech building in California.”
Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer
questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the
weather, he visits www.intellicast.com.
Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the
combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However,
if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A.I.
Artificial Intelligence, he must solve two problems.
The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are sorted in different
ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a
much more difficult task to let him find it himself.
Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information more exactly and faster than
any human, he lacks(缺少) common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious(明显的) to any
young child.
1.From the text we can infer that www.intellicast.com is a website ______.
A.which is specially designed to help Smarter Child
B.which is about artificial intelligence
C.where people can find Smarter Child
D.where weather forecasts are made
2.It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to ______.
A.learn the ability to tell right behaviors from wrong ones.
B.tell us how the American government is run
C.provide us with a famous poem by Shakespeare
D.tell us how to spell a difficult word
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A.Smart Child has his own memory bank big enough for all kinds of information.
B.A.I. Artificial Intelligence is probably the name of a film about a boy-computer.
C.Smart Child can recognize different files and find information needed on his own.
D.We have similar product now which has the knowledge of Einstein, Nixon and Spears.
【文章大意】本文是说明文,主要介绍了美国新开发的电脑程序,名为“Smarter Child”的优点,
它的技术支持以及它要独立思考和学习,必须解决的两个问题。
1.D 推理判断题。根据第四段“For the weather, he visits www.intellicast.com.” 关于天气,他访问了
www.intellicast.com。由此判断出 www.intellicast.com 是天气播报网站,故选 D 项。
2.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段“he lacks(缺少) common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that
is obvious(明显的) to any young child.”他缺乏常识——对任何小孩子来说,常识都是显而易见
的知识基础。由此判断出,对 Smarter Child 来说,学习辨别正确行为和错误行为的能力可能
是最困难的。故选 A 项。
3.B 细节理解题,根据倒数第三段“if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the
boy-computer David in the movie A. I. Artificial Intelligence, he must solve two problems.” 如果
Smarter Child 想要像电影《人工智能》里的小电脑大卫那样独立思考和学习,他必须解决两
个问题。故选 B 项。
B
For some years,my mother worked for a charity as President and Secretary. Selling raffle tickets(兑奖
券) was her main means of bringing in the charity’s muchneeded funds. We girls would accompany her,
selling tickets with great success. My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery boxes and
other lovely items as prizes.
Now my sister was always coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan. But
that didn’t deter her. She had many just waiting to be tested. When she was eight and I was just five,we
had a wonderful idea for a business adventure. We decided we would sell raffle tickets for charity,and that
charity was us!
So one afternoon,we told our mother we were going to play in the park with our cousins as we did
most days after school. But instead,we walked around the streets armed with a raffle book,a pen and a
large cloth bag to carry the money.
We’d accompanied our mother many times when she sold tickets,so people were familiar with us
when we appeared at their doors. Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on
offer,they were very generous. Although there were no actual prizes,our mother’s previous track record
enabled us to sell nearly the whole book of raffle tickets.
Like a little pair of lottery(彩票) winners,we walked home and proudly showed off our takings. But
our enjoyment of this sudden wealth was shortlived,and our plans for spending it quickly failed. Our
angry mother took us back to every ticket buyer,making us apologise and give the money back. Thankfully,
our sweet neighbours didn’t make a big deal of our “clever” misbehavior and thus my mother’s
fundraising career could continue safely. We were taught a good lesson by our mother that day. Also I
remember my sister’s entrepreneurial(企业家的) spirit dried up a bit after that.
4.What did the author’s father do?
A.He got prizes ready. B.He sold handmade items.
C.He was in charge of a charity. D.He helped design raffle tickets.
5.What does the underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Embarrass. B.Shock.
C.Discourage. D.Mislead.
6.What can be learned about the author and her sister while selling raffle tickets?
A.They ran into their mother.
B.They met some generous strangers.
C.They got lost while walking around the streets.
D.They took advantage of people’s trust in their mother.
7.What lesson did the author and her sister learn?
A.Honesty is the best policy. B.What’s done can’t be undone.
C.Misfortune never comes alone. D.Good advice is beyond all price.
【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者和妹妹自以为的“小聪明式”售卖慈善奖券
的方式受到了母亲的责备,并得到了教训:要以诚信待人。
4.A 细节理解题。根据文章第一段末句:My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery
boxes and other lovely items as prizes.(我父亲制作并捐赠了漂亮的木制玩具、首饰盒和其他可
爱的物品作为奖品。)可知,作者的父亲准备奖品。故选 A 项。
5.C 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子由 but 连接,表转折,之前的句子:Now my sister was always
coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan.(现在我妹妹总是能想出“好
主意”,但大多数都没有按计划实现。)以及后一句:She had many just waiting to be tested.(她
有很多只是等待测试。)可知,作者的妹妹并没有受到计划失败的打击。因此划线单词 deter
可以理解为 discourage(使气馁),故选 C 项。
6.D 推理判断题。根据文章第四段:We’d accompanied our mother many times when she sold
tickets,so people were familiar with us when we appeared at their doors. Despite the blank looks
they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous. Although there were
no actual prizes,our mother’s previous track record enabled us to sell nearly the whole book of
raffle tickets.(妈妈卖票的时候,我们陪了她很多次,所以当我们出现在门口时,大家都很熟
悉我们。尽管在询问奖品时他们得到的只是茫然的表情,但他们非常慷慨。虽然没有真正的
奖品,但我们母亲之前的记录使我们几乎卖出了整本书的奖券。)可知,作者母亲的信用帮助
他们卖出了整本书的奖券。选项 D They took advantage of people’s trust in their mother.(他们
利用人们对他们母亲的信任。)属于合理推断。故选 D 项。
7.A 推理判断题。根据文章末段:Thankfully,our sweet neighbours didn’t make a big deal of our
“clever” misbehavior and thus my mother’s fundraising career could continue safely. We were
taught a good lesson by our mother that day.( 值得庆幸的是,我们可爱的邻居并没有把我们的“聪
明”行为当回事,因此我母亲的筹款事业可以安全地继续下去。那天妈妈给了我们一个很好的
教训。)可知,作者的母亲给与了他们的“小聪明”教训。他们小聪明就是上文提及的“Despite the
blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous. Although
there were no actual prizes…(尽管在询问奖品时他们得到的只是茫然的表情,但他们非常慷慨。
虽然没有真正的奖品……)。因此可知,作者和妹妹得到的教训是要有诚信。故选 A 项。

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 people on 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’ performance with a group of
older adults to get a better idea of what prompts, video reminders and other preferences they have regarding
the robot.”
8.How does RAS serve elderly people?
A.Through sensors. B.Through objects.
C.Through a mobile robot. D.Through their daily activities.
9.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.
10.What’s Minor’s attitude toward the future of RAS?
A.Doubtful. B.Negative.
C.Optimistic. D.Uncertain.
11.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.
【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一款由美国华盛顿州立大学的科学家们研发的机器
人,可以帮助那些痴呆或有身体缺陷的老年人在家里过上自立的生活。
8.A 细节理解题。根据文章第二段 The Robot Activity Support System, or RAS, uses sensors (传感
器)equipped in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and
when they need assistance with daily activities 可知机器人活动支持系统(RAS)使用 WSU 智能
家居中配备的传感器(传感器)来确定其居民在哪里,他们在做什么以及何时需要日常活动
的帮助,说明传感器起到了重大的作用,故选 A 项。
9.B 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的 The next step in the research will be to test RAS'
performance…可知,这台机器人的表现还要经过进一步的测,说明正在测试阶段,故选 B 项。
10.C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段 While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial
results with RAS have been promising 可知,Minor 对这款机器人的未来发展充满信心、非常乐
观,故选 C 项。
11.B 主旨大意题。文章介绍了一款由美国华盛顿州立大学的科学家们研发的机器人。由最后一段
中 The next step in the research will be to test RAS’ performance 可知,机器人目前还在华盛顿
州立大学的智能屋里进行测试,故选 B 项。

You’re enjoying a quiet evening at home when suddenly your neighbor's dog starts barking(吠叫)
and doesn’t stop. Sure, dogs need to bark every now and then, but if the barking is getting in the way of
your daily life, you need to do something.
Before you take action, make records of when the dog is disturbing. Record the dates and times when
the barking appears to find out the features of the barking. Check them carefully and get your facts straight.
You might notice the barking only happens when the owners are at work, or during thunderstorms.
After two to three weeks, visit your neighbors with the facts, your neighbors might not even realize the
barking is a problem, for the worst noise may happen when they are gone.
Explain the times when the barking gets bad, then suggest a way to solve the problem. Ask if the dog
can stay inside during storm, or suggest a dog training class. Be open to compromise(妥协)because the
owners might have other ideas about how to deal with the noise.
Befriending the dog could help. Have your neighbors introduce you to their dog. If they become more
comfortable in your presence, they're less likely to bark when they see you or when they are in the
backyard. You might even be able to use commands such as “quiet” once the dog trusts you.
Avoid gossiping(流言輩语)with other neighbors about the dog. “That’s when things escalate.”
After all, most people will want to solve the problem.
12.What can you do first when your neighbor’s dogs barking influences your life?
A.Bring the dog to a training class.
B.Drive it out of your neighborhood.
C.Record the dates and times of the barking.
D.Show your complaint to your neighborhood.
13.Why are your neighbors less likely to realize the barking problem?
A.They may like dogs barking.
B.They all think their dogs are friendly.
C.They have been used to the barking of the dogs.
D.They may be out when the worst barking happens.
14.What does the underlined word "escalate" in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.Become better. B.Become worse.
C.Remain unchanged. D.Become more personal.
15.What can be inferred from the text?
A.Love me, love my dog. B.Barking dogs seldom bite.
C.Good communication is a must. D.Treat violence with violence.
【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。短文就被邻居家的狗的叫声打扰时,应该如何去做提出了一些
建议。
12.C 细节理解题。由第二段 Record the dates and times when the barking appears to find out the features
of the barking.可知,记录狗叫声出现的日期和时间,找出狗叫声的特征。所以当邻居的狗叫
声影响到了你的生活时,你首先能做的是记录狗叫的日期和时间。故选 C 项。
13.D 细节理解题。由第三段 your neighbors might not even realize the barking is a problem, for the worst
noise may happen when they 're gone.可知,你的邻居甚至可能没有意识到狗叫声是个问题,因
为最糟糕的噪音可能发生在他们不在家的时候。所以为什么你的邻居不太可能意识到狗叫的
问题是因为当狗叫时,它们不在家。故选 D 项。
14.B 词义猜测题。根据最后一段 Avoid gossiping(流言輩语)with other neighbors about the dog.可
知,避免和其他邻居谈论狗。所以判断出和其他邻居谈论狗时会使问题恶化。故通过上下文
可以判断出,划线词的意思是“变得更糟”。故选 B 项。
15.C 推理判断题。根据第二段 Before you take action, make records of when the dog is disturbing.在你
采取行动之前,记录下狗打扰你的时间。第三段 After two to three weeks, visit your neighbors
with the facts.两到三周后,去拜访你的邻居。第四段 Explain the times when the barking gets
bad, then suggest a way to solve the problem.解释狗叫的时间,然后提出解决问题的方法。第五
段 Befriending the dog could help.和狗狗成为朋友可能会有所帮助。所以通过所提出的建议可
以判断出,良好的沟通是必须的。故选 C 项。

Five steps to better handwriting
Some kids love handwriting, but others hate it when it’s time to put pen to paper. Maybe they are
worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? 16.Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this — hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard? But when you hold
your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 17.Hold it in place with your thumb(拇指), and your
index and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend! Those lines can help you create letters that are of the right size and
proportion (比例). 18.Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be
from the bottom line to the top one.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it’s hard to control where you
stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure (压力)
19.That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try relaxing and don’t hold the pencil too hard.
20.
Lots of games need you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still
using the skills you need to control your pencil better.
A.Play games
B.Ask for advice
C.You’ve been writing since you were a little kid.
D.So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”.
E. Some kids press down really hard when they write.
F. The best way to hold a pencil is to rest it next to the base of your thumb.
G. The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了提高书写质量的五个步骤。
16.G 由“Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? ____16____Here are five
steps that really work!”可知,也许他们担心自己的书写。你是他们中的一员吗?这里有五个真
的很有用的步骤。所以小题 16 要起到承上启下的作用。故 G 选项“好消息是,几乎每个人都
可以提高他们的书写”切题。故选 G 项。
17.F 由“ Hold it in place with your thumb(拇指), and your index and middle fingers.”可知,用拇指、食
指和中指将其固定到位。所以小题 17 与后一句一同来说明如何正确地拿笔。故 F 选项“拿铅
笔最好的方法是把它放在拇指底部”切题。故选 F 项。
18.D 由“Those lines can help you create letters that are of the right size and proportion (比例)”可知,这
些线条可以帮助写出大小和比例合适的字母。所以小题18要举例说明这些线在书写时的作用。
故 D 选项“所以“a”应该是大写字母“A”的一半高”切题。故选 D 项。
19.E 由“That makes it harder to make the smooth lines”可知,这样就很难画出平滑的线条。所以小题
19 要说明哪种情况导致很难画出平滑的线条。故 E 选项“有些孩子写字的时候很用力”切题。
故选 E 项。
20.A 由“Lots of games need you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still
using the skills you need to control your pencil better”可知,很多游戏都需要你去写或者画画。
所以即使这不是作业,你仍然在使用你需要的技能来更好地控制你的铅笔。所以本段主要在
说明玩游戏也可以帮助你提高书写质量也就是小题 20 本段的标题所要说明的内容。故 A 选
项“玩游戏”切题。故选 A 项。

选项。
Each of us struggles for self-respect and self-worth to some degree. I spent much time trying to
achieve perfection in every aspect of my life.
I was a happy kid with a lot of friends and a Supportive family. But growing up was really 21
and even scary sometimes.
During my childhood, I was constantly involved in something that included people’s viewing my
achievements or my 22 . I wanted everyone’s praise and acceptance, but I was my own toughest
critic (挑剔的人).
After I graduated from high school, my 23 to be “thin” began to trouble me. I began trying to
diet by 24 my food.
In the beginning, I felt great—attractive and successful, almost superhuman. I even thought that I was
better than everyone else. What I didn’t see was that I was slowly 25 myself.
People around me began to 26 my weight loss. They said with concern. “You’re losing too
much weight.” “Elisa, you’re so thin.” All their words only suggested that I was getting closer to
“ 27 ”.
Sadly, I took my physical 28 the first important in my life, 29 that it was the way to
become successful and accepted.
Then I cut down my 30 more and more, until a 31 day consisted of half a teaspoon of
nonfat yoghurt and coffee in the morning, and a cup of grapes at night.
But my poor 32 began to cause me to lose 33 . Then one night, like many nights
before, I couldn’t sleep, and my heart felt as though it might beat out of my chest. I tried to 34 , but
I couldn’t. The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer 35 . What I had done to
diet nearly caused me to have a heart attack. I stood up, and immediately fell down. I was really 36 ,
and I knew I needed help. My roommate rushed me to the 37 , beginning the long road to my
38 . It took a lot—doctors, nurses, nutritionists, food supplements...
And most important, a sense of what was true about myself got back on track with reality. I realized
that, with my 39 of trying to be “perfect” on the 40 , I had sacrificed who I was on the
inside. What I know now is, we are—each and every one of us—already perfect.

44.which/ that 考查定语从句。句意:首先,与汽油汽车相比,自行车可以很好地节约能源和减少

原形,lighten 是动词,意思是“减轻”,在情态动词 can 后面用原形。故填 lighten。

On Monday, we had a surprise math quiz. I must have sounded very proud of me after the quiz, saying
what easy it was. The next day after class, my math teacher told me that I had lowest grade in the class. I
was very upset that I felt like crying. I thought that Hannah should have told my classmates about my grade
after promise not to. I was so angry that I went straight to Hannah and told her we weren’t going to be
friends any more because she couldn’t keep her words. She was really upset and swore that she hasn’t told
anyone, but I didn’t believe her explanation. I don’t think I can ever truly forgive to her.
【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。本文叙述了作者和好朋友之间的一次误会,作者有一次考试中
数学考试得了班级最低分,她不想让其他的同学知道她的考试成绩,但是只告诉她的好朋友,让她
保守秘密,可是第二天其他的同学都知道了这事,作者认为是她的好朋友泄露了秘密,从此两个人
再也不说话了,可是作者现在有点后悔。
第一处:betray→betrayed 考查过去分词。句意:我觉得被我的朋友 Hannah 出卖了。feel +过去分
词,“感到……”,故把 betray 改成 betrayed。
第二处:me→myself 考查反身代词。句意:在测验结束后,我一定为我感到非常自豪,并说这是
多么容易。主语与宾语指同一事物,要用主语的反身代词做宾语,意思是“某人以自己而自
豪”。故把 me 改成 myself。
第三处:what→how 考查宾语从句引导词。句意:在测验结束后,我一定为我感到非常自豪,并说
这是多么容易。此处 easy 是形容词,用 how 修饰,引导宾语从句,故把 what 改成 how。
第四处:lowest 前加 the 考查最高级。形容词最高级前定冠词 the,故 lowest 前加 the。
第五处:very→so 考查结果状语从句。句意:我很难过,我想哭。此处是 so---that 引导的结果状语
从句,故把 very 改成 so。
第六处:should→must 考查情态动词。句意:我以为 Hannah 一定是在答应了以后告诉我的同学我
的成绩的。should have done“本应该做而没有做”;must have done“一定是做某事了”,表示
对过去事情有把握的肯定推测。故把 should 改成 must。
第七处:promise→promising 考查动名词。此处 after 是介词,后面用动名词做宾语,故把 promise
改成 promising。
第八处:words→word 考查固定词组。keep one’s word“遵守诺言”,故把 words 改成 word。
第九处:hasn’t→hadn’t 考查时态。句意:她很生气,发誓说她没有告诉任何人,但我不相信她的
解释。此处 tell 的动作发生在 swore 的前面,所以要用过去完成时态,故把 hasn’t 改成
hadn’t。
第十处:去掉 forgive 后的 to 考查及物动词。此处 forgive(原谅)是及物动词,后面直接跟宾语,
故去掉 forgive 后的 to。

Dear David,
Having known that you take a great interest in our activity called “Animals Protection,” I am writing
to you with the purpose of introducing it to you.
It is clear that animals are our friends, sharing the same blue planet with us. The activity aimed at
protecting endangered species is scheduled to be held in April in our school. Definitely, it must be a time
for you to enjoy yourself to the fullest. At that time, a wide range of splendid activities will be held, thus
catching your eyes. We’d like our students to design their own posters and exhibit them, thus arousing
students’ awareness of animal protection.
I would appreciate it if you could come to the scene in person. You are highly welcome to our school.
A prompt reply is much favored.
Yours,
Li Hua
