2019-2020年高考英語一輪復(fù)習(xí)話題語篇專攻練16科普發(fā)明一外研版. 閱讀理解A(xx洛陽模擬)A man enters a store to buy milk. He walks out of the store with milk. That is allmilk. At the same time, a woman enters the same grocery store also to buy milk. She buys it. But, she also buys chicken and lemons to make dinner that night. She also gets a bottle of wine for drinks with friends and a birthday card for her husbands niece. And that is the difference between the female and male brains simply explained in a grocery store. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at one time is often called “multi-tasking”, a very popular word these days. Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. A recent study has confirmed what we have known all alongmen and women think differently. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania studied brain images of 949 people aged from 8 to 22 years old. They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain, or hemisphere. In the female brain, they found more activity and connections between the right and left sides of the brain. The left side of the brain is known as the side of “reason”. The right hemisphere is known as the“creative”side. Regina Verma is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. She co-wrote the report. She says when women are asked to do something plicated they might use different parts of the brain. But men generally use just one. As a result, men generally deal directly with a problem. There is a strong connection between the “understanding” and the “action” parts of their brains. Women, however, might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with “reason” and the part connected with sensitivity when solving a problem. Women take a less direct path to find a solution. Thanks for your listening.

But rather than run in fear from it, weve weled it into our homes: Pepper, the “emotional robot”, sold out within a minute of going on sale. Created by Aldebaran Robotics and Japanese mobile giant SoftBank, Pepper went on sale to the general public in Japan on June 20. It is“the first humanoid(類人的)robot designed to live with humans, ”Aldebaran says on its website. Pepper costs about $1, 600. And like all good mobile products, theres a $120 per month data fee, as well as an $80 per month damage insurance fee. According to a news release, Pepper can pick up on human emotions and create his own using a“multi-layer neural network”. Peppers touch sensors and cameras are said to influence its mood, which is displayed on the tablet-sized screen on its chest. Pepper will sigh when unhappy, and can go around your house recording your familys daily activity. Aldebaran says Pepper can feel“joy, surprise, anger, doubt and sadness”, but it doesnt say how strongly it can feel these emotions. What happens when Pepper is having a bad day? Will it, like many humans, bee uncooperative? Will it ask for some time alone? What happens if it figures out that its purpose in life is just to engage in small talk? Thankfully, Pepper is only about four feet tall, with roller balls instead of legs, so if it is angry with and even turns on its owners, youll be safe if you can make it upstairs. Aldebaran says in reality, theyre probably quite a few decades away from artificial intelligence that could generate real emotions. Aldebaran wasnt immediately available for ment on when Pepper will be available outside of Japan, but additional sales are scheduled for July after the first 1, 000 units sell out. SoftBank currently uses the robots in its stores as greeters, and it plans to offer Pepper to other stores in the future. Hopefully“boredom”is not an emotion Pepper can feel. 【文章大意】本文介紹了日本的一家電信公司發(fā)布了一臺(tái)“情感機(jī)器人”, 闡述了情感機(jī)器人的使用消費(fèi)、功能以及未來的前景。4. According to the author, Pepper_. A. is very popular among customersB. can not only run but also show fearC. is going to be sold all over the worldD. can deal with many kinds of housework【解析】選A。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的Pepper, the“emotional robot”, sold out within a minute of going on sale. 可知, Pepper非常受消費(fèi)者歡迎。5. How much do you need to pay for Peppers data fee and damage insurance fee each year? A. 80 dollars. B. 120 dollars. C. 1, 440 dollars.

Peppers height and roller balls are mentioned to_. A. introduce its appearanceB. tell us Pepper wont get angryC. show that safety isnt a big issueD. explain robots have strong emotions【解析】選C。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的. . . Pepper is only about four feet tall, with roller balls instead of legs, so if it is angry with and even turns on its owners, youll be safe if you can make it upstairs. 可知, 介紹Pepper的height and roller balls是為了表明安全不是大問題。故選C。7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Pepper cannot produce real emotions. B. Pepper can feel joy, surprise and boredom. C. Pepper will be sold in other countries next year. D. Pepper is being used as waiters in some restaurants. 【解析】選A。推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的Aldebaran says in reality, theyre probably quite a few decades away from artificial intelligence that could generate real emotions. 可推斷, Pepper現(xiàn)在不能產(chǎn)生真正的情感。故選A。. 完形填空Do you check your work emails when youre on holiday?
