Once you e into the building, you will feel that you39。re in a modern and future home. When you enter the building, Grace39。s voice, ing from a hidden speaker, tells you your messages. In the kitchen, you set a bag of flour(面粉) on a flat stone table. Grace sees what you39。re doing and makes a menu of flourbased foods on the table. Once you choose one, Grace gives you ingredients(配料). There39。s also a notice board in the kitchen made of “intelligent(智能的) cloth” that works like a touch screen puter. You can deal with postcards and invitations and surf the net with the touch of a finger. The invitations could be encoded(編碼). You can deal with them on the puter. It39。s part of Microsoft39。s Smart Personal Objects Technology, whose aim is to make every object more efficient(有效率的). “The day when your house bees a member of your family is not far,” says Pam Heath, a manager of Microsoft. At the Andersen Windows Company, Jay Libby imagines that windows made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs. “Nobody wants a television set,” says Libby. “What you want is the service it provides.” If the TV isn39。t improved, it will disappear in the future. Home entertainment is one consideration for the future. At the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, scientists are designing systems that will allow old people to live better on their own. So Grandma39。s home can be cleverly designed to recognize(識(shí)別) her ways of waking, sleeping and movement. Family members will be told any change by their puters.(1)We can know from the passage that Grace _________.A.is an idea known as the Microsoft HomeB.is a machine that works like a TVC.can understand what its master doesD.can cook meals for its master(2)According to the passage, all the following are true EXCEPT________.A.Grace can help you in the kitchenB.you can use the puter with a touch screenC.windows will take the place of TV sets in the near futureD.TV technology needs improving(3)It can be inferred(推斷) from the passage that ________.A.the building in the future will be intelligentB.your windows will be changed into TVsC.few people will like watching TV in the futureD.all the old people will live without others’ help(4)Which would be the best title for the text?A.Modern HomeB.Popular HomeC.Future HomeD.Smart Home【答案】 (1)C(2)C(3)A(4)D 【解析】【分析】你走進(jìn)廚房,Grace會(huì)告訴你相關(guān)的留言,你看見面粉,Grace會(huì)給你提供面食的菜單,你選擇一個(gè)菜單,Grace會(huì)給你相關(guān)的配料,這些都是智能家庭給我們帶來的便利,高效。在未來智能家庭還會(huì)提供更多更便利的科技,計(jì)算機(jī)正改變著我們的生活。(1)推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段的描述和第二段tells you your messages告訴你信息; makes a menu of flourbased foods on the table制定面食菜單; gives you ingredients給你配料等,可知Grace應(yīng)該是一臺(tái)家庭智能機(jī)器,它會(huì)看懂你做的事情,并提供必要的幫助,故選C。(2)推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段在廚房的活動(dòng)可知A是對(duì)的;根據(jù)第二段 that works like a touch screen puter和You can deal with them on the puter可知B是對(duì)的;根據(jù)第三段 windows made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs用智能玻璃做成的Windows可以變成電視,并沒有要取代電視的意思,故C是錯(cuò)誤的;根據(jù)第四段 If the TV isn’t improved, it will disappear in the future可知如果電視沒有改進(jìn),它在將來會(huì)消失,故D也是對(duì)的。因此選C。(3)推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段Home entertainment is one consideration for the future和scientists are designing systems that will allo
