In the process, human beings still decide on the correct answers. 機器人的程序是由人類編程的,人類控制它們的訓(xùn)練程序,故選B。 (2)細節(jié)題。根據(jù) This can lead to the mistaken belief—the knowledge we found was part of what we knew all ,故選C。 (3)詞義猜測題。 根據(jù)The collapse of any of the networks of relations our wellbeing (健康) depends upon, produce terrible results. 可知,此處指我們健康所依靠的網(wǎng)絡(luò)中的任何一個突然崩潰或垮掉了,都會產(chǎn)生很糟糕的后果。collapse意為崩潰,垮掉,故選A。 (4)主旨題。通讀全文可知,作者主要講的是用機器記信息可能會產(chǎn)生的不良影響或后果,故D項符合題意,故選D。 【點評】詞義猜測題和主旨題是閱讀理解題中常考題型。詞句猜測題需要聯(lián)系上下文,推出詞句的意思;主旨題需要通讀全文,了解大意之后找出中心思想。5.閱讀短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。 Sometimes it seems that time is flying. Perhaps it doesn39。t need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be possibly changed. By understanding the psychological (心理學(xué)的) processes behind our different experiences of time, we might be able to slow down time a little. One basic law of psychological time is that time seems to slow down when we39。re exposed (接觸) to new environments and experiences. The law is caused by the relationship between our experience of time and the amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass. It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situations, we have fewer new experiences and the world around us bees more and more familiar (熟悉的). We bee insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up. How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions. Firstly, since we know that familiarity makes time pass faster, we can expose ourselves to as many new experiences as possible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new information, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand (增加) our experience of time. Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention to an experienceto what we are seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you have to deal with. Look at the sky, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a timeexpanding effect. To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time passing. It39。s possible for us to slow down time by expanding our experience of time.(1)According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by ________. A.going to bed on timeB.traveling to new placesC.having dinner as usualD.printing the same materials(2)What can we learn from the passage? A.Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.B.Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly.C.We can take in more information by living through our senses.D.We should build a stronger relationship between time and us.(3)Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.Slow Down TimeB.Only Time Will TellC.Race Against TimeD.Time Will Not Come Twice【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)A 【解析】【分析】大意:本文講述我們的大腦吸收的信息越多,時間似乎過得更慢。 (1)推斷題。根據(jù) It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different ,會產(chǎn)生不同的時間體驗,因此推出經(jīng)歷不同的的地方可以擴展自己的體驗,故選B。 (2)推斷題。根據(jù) This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a timeexpanding ,故選C。 (3)主旨題。本文主要講述講述我們的大腦吸收的信息越多,時間似乎過得更慢,故選A。 【點評】考查閱讀理解,首先通讀全文,了解全文大意,其次分析問題,抓住問題的關(guān)鍵詞,在文中尋找相關(guān)信息,確定答案,最后再檢查一遍,確保答案正確。6.閱讀理解 Technology is developing fast and it has bee an important part of our life. Then what will the world be like in the future? 3—D food will be both delicious and nutritious(有營養(yǎng)的). We can use 3—D printers to print some basic materials. ① And we can go further. Scientists belive that we just need to turn on a printer in the kitchen and then we can enjoy our favourite food whenever we like. ② 5G network will allow many more people to get information. Big panies like China Mobile and China Uni will start to offer 5G. It is said that promises download speeds 10 to 20 times faster than 4G. For example, we can download a film within just 1 second. But with a 4G network, it takes a few minutes. There will be much bandwidth (帶寬) and we can get unlimited (無限的) information. Underwater cities will provide more space. The earth is being more and more crowded. We may turn to underwater homes, which will be built as low as 15 of the sea can be used to provide power for the homes. ③ For us mon people on the earth, the dream of travelling around space will e true. In the ing years, spacecraft will be as popular as buses, trains and planes. We can leave our home and enter space to take an adventure (冒險). And even we will get used to living the
