A.B.An Interhome project has been put into use to help the elderly.An Interhome project will help the old live a better and safer life.【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)C(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,將來那些照顧老人的人可能會得到幫助。Interhome團(tuán)隊希望提供這項服務(wù)將有助于照顧老人。根據(jù)第三段中的“ The device collects information to see if the person has fallen or has wandered away from where he or she should be”可知該裝置是收集老人是否摔倒;是否走失之類的信息。(2)考查推理判斷。這些學(xué)生共同努力研制。故選C。根據(jù)最后一段中的“This could help millions of old people around the world have a better and safer life in the future”可知項目部領(lǐng)導(dǎo)對“智能家庭”項目的態(tài)度是很樂觀的。(4)考查主旨大意。本文主要講的是一款新科技要幫助老人過上更好的生活,而不是“幫學(xué)生研發(fā)硬件和軟件”?!军c評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇科普類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,同時根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,概括歸納,從而選出正確答案。Sleep, considered a luxury by many, is essential for a person39。s risk of developing severe medical conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Now, a new study by Boston39。Jeffrey Grossman, who led the research, was not trying to find the link between sleep and grades when he handed out Fitbits to the 100 students in his introduction to SolidState Chemistry class. Instead, the professor of Computational Materials Science hoped the popular wristworn device which, tracks a person39。However, the study, published in the journal “Science Learning” on October 1, 2019, discovered a surprising insight. Then was a straightline relationship between the average amount of sleep a student got and his/her grade on the 11 quizzes, three midterms, and the final exam administered during the semester. s the sleep you get during the days when learning is happening that matters most. t everything.”(1)What is the new finding about sleep? 39。s health. less may cause obesity. too much is dangerous. sleep leads to better grades.(2)What does the underlined word Fitbits in paragraph 2 refer to? devices.. equipment..(3)Which of the following best describes the final result the new study? ....(4)What will benefit students39。好的睡眠質(zhì)量是提高學(xué)習(xí)成績的關(guān)鍵。根據(jù)第一段中的“Now, a new study by Boston39。故選D。根據(jù)第二段中的“Instead, the professor of Computational Materials Science hoped the popular wristworn device which tracks a person39??芍狥itbits指的是一種可以穿戴的設(shè)備。 (3)考查推理判斷。故選D。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Instead, it39。t everything.”什么時候睡覺很重要。如果你在2點以后睡覺,即使你睡了7個小時,你的表現(xiàn)也會開始下降。故選C。 A new study has shown how puters and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye movements to read human personalities.Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality, wrote the researchers, led by University of South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team follows 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determines their personality traits(特點)with wellestablished questionnaires for determining personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily. s major personality traits, such as neuroticism, extraversion(外向),agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as perceptual(感知的)curiosity, the scientists wrote. People are always looking for improved, personalized services. Today39。The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britain39。 eye movements were recorded. students39。 personalities were determined by puter.(3)According to Tobias Loetscher, what can we know? and puters are socially conscious. care less about improved, personalized services.39。 (1)考查詞義猜測。可知,劃線詞組所在句的句意為“如果這是真的,由復(fù)雜的人工智能算法驅(qū)動的計算機(jī)和機(jī)器人可能很快就能探究你的靈魂。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選B。根據(jù)第六段中的“The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their puters and other hightech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines”這項新發(fā)現(xiàn)可能會改善人類與電腦和其他高科技設(shè)備,甚至是機(jī)器人的互動方式,從而使人類與機(jī)器進(jìn)行更自然、更現(xiàn)實的社會互動成為可能)可知,這一發(fā)現(xiàn)將改善人類和機(jī)器之間的互動。 (4)考查主旨大意。故選C。4.閱讀理解re finding some theories may apply to one group of monkeys.d receive a piece of apple in return.s not necessarily what they gave the monkeys.
