课时跟踪练(一) Warming Up & Reading — Pre reading Ⅰ.阅读理解AThere are robot cleaners and robot mops to help us around the house, so why not a robot to build our homes？Wait no longer. Now there is a set of electronics to do just that, build a house from scratch, and fast.Forget weeks to find a builder and months forhouse construction; a machine developed in theUnited States can build a 232 sqm home layer bylayer in a single day. University of SouthernCalifornia's Professor Behrokh Khoshnevis hasdesigned the giant robot that replaces construction workers with a mouth on an arm of crane (起重机), which spits out concrete (混凝土) and can quickly build a home according to a computer pattern. The technology, known as Contour (轮廓) Crafting, could revolutionize the construction industry.Contour Crafting could greatly decrease the cost of homeowning, making it possible for millions of displaced people to_get_on_the_property_ladder. It could even be used in disaster relief areas to build emergency and replacement housing. As Prof Khoshnevis points out, if you look around you almost everything is made automatically these days —“your shoes, your clothes, home appliances, your car. The only thing that is still built by hand is these buildings.”The Contour Crafting system i s a robot that automates ageold tools normally used by hand. These are applied by a robotic crane that builds a threedimensional object. The nature of the technology means it will also be possible to create curved walls and architecture that is both “exo tic (异国情调的) and beautiful” according to Prof Khoshnevis. As a result, it could be ideal to print out expensive homes according to customers' demands.Furthermore, Prof Khoshnevis believes that the technology could be applied beyond our planet. “Contour Cra fting technology has the potential to build safe, reliable, and affordable structures, habitats, laboratories, and other facilities on the moon and Mars before the arrival of human beings，” his website reads.According to the International Labour Organisation construction employs nearly 110 million people worldwide and “plays a major role in fighting the high levels of unemployment and in absorbing extra labour from the rural areas”. What theimplications are for builders is, of course, a major concern. But Khoshnevis says “the reality is that a lot of new jobs can be created in this field as well”. Instead of building the house workmen are used to maintain the machine.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

BScience fiction writers create imaginary worlds. The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. So it's important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if you're writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can't drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. The issue here is maintaining your readers' trust. That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.Part of your preparation work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You don't have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter.But you have to let readers know enough to understand what's going on. This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions (矛盾) before you start writing.When you are writing, remember to make it feel real. You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what it's like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they're actually there.语篇解读：很多人对科幻小说充满兴趣，你是否想写科幻小说呢？5．What's the relationship between actual science and science fiction?A．Science fiction promotes the development of actual science.B．Science fiction often reflects the development of actual science.C．Actual science limits the imagination described in science fiction.D．Actual science provides basic principles for science fiction.解析：选D 推理判断题。

The paintings were highly realistic. Some even showed movement. The artwork is considered the oldest group of human cave drawings that have ever been discovered. The drawings were created tens of thousands of years ago before human history was written. They were preserved because the cave was closed off for more or less 23,000 years.Fast forward to December 18, 1994, a group of French cave scientists were exploring caves in southern France. JeanMarie Chauvet, who led the group then, describes the process of disc overing the cave paintings. “At that time I was in the front, Eliette just walked behind me, Christian behind. Eliette said she saw two marks made with red ochre and she said, ‘They came here.’ And at this very moment everything began. The drawings and everything were linked to the parietal art (壁画). That is where it started.” Cave art expert Jean Clottes reviewed the paintings. “I was amazed at the number of paintings there and their quality.”The Chauvet Cave has been named after the explorer who first entered it. However, its environment and drawings are too fragile to be visited by human beings. So the cave is closed, and only people there for scientific purposes can go inside and see the artwork.However, French authorities asked experts to create an exact copy of the cave, called the Pont d'Arc Cavern. The copy cost more than 59 million dollars to build. Pascal Terrasse is the president of the cave. He says everyone will be able to experience the thrill of looking at drawings made by the first humans in Europe. He says the place is magic because it is done so well.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

Unit 2 Robots reading课时作业阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
AThe morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching，and I'd been in an argument with a friend.Her words still hurt:“The trouble with you is that you won't put yourself in my place.Can't you see things from my point of view?”I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth.I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday，but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book，but no one could see me immediately.Finally，at about lunchtime，I got lucky.“If you come by right now，”the receptionist said，“the dentist will fit you in.”I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car.But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice？Why wasn't he as busy as the others?In the dentist's office，I sat down and looked around.I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried.The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears，she laughed and said，“Don't worry.The dentist is very good.”“How long do I have to wait for him?”I asked impatiently.“Come on，he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork，”the assistant said.“The artwork?”I was puzzled.The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled.There was a beautiful picture，right where I could enjoy it：on the ceiling.How considerate the dentist was！At that moment，I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!1．Which of the following best describes the author's feeling that morning?A．Cheerful. B．Nervous.C．Satisfied. D．Upset.2．What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?A．The dentist's agreeing to treat her at very short notice.B．The dentist's being as busy as the other dentists.C．The surroundings of the dentist's office.D．The laughing assistant of the dentist.3．Why did the author suddenly smile?A．Because the dentist came at last.B．Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.C．Because she could relax in the chair.D．Because the assistant kept comforting her.4．What did the author learn from her experience most probably?A．Strike while the iron is hot.B．Have a good word for one's friend.C．Put oneself in other's shoes.D．A friend in need is a friend indeed.BChina is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的)．To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide, so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.5．According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A．Because they are traditional and safe.B．Because they are convenient and inexpensive.C．Because they are colorful and available.D．Because they are fast and environment friendly.6．The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ________．A．to ride it for fun B．to use it for transportC．to experience local culture D．to improve his riding skills7．How did the author feel about his street crossing?A．It was boring. B．It was difficult.C．It was lively. D．It was wonderful.8．Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B．The author was annoyed by the air while riding.C．The author was praised by the other bikers.D．The author took great pleasure in biking.CLowCost Gifts for Mother's DayGift No. 1Offer to be your mother's health friend. Promise to be there for any and all doctor's visits whether a disease or a regular medical checkup. Most mothers always say “no need”，but another set of eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctor's visit. The best part? This one is free.Gift No. 2Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her medicines and what times she takes them. “Having all this information in one place could end up saving your mother's life，” Dr. Marie Savard said.Gift No. 3Enough sleep is connected to general health conditions. “Buy your mother cotton sheets and comfortable pillows to encourage better sleep，”Savard said. “We know that good sleep is very important to our health.”Gift No. 4Some gift companies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this Mother's Day by picking gifts in which 10 percent of the price you pay goes to a charity (慈善机构). Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but inexpensive things—many of which are “green”—and then choose a meaningful charity from a list. When your mother gets the gift, she will be told that she has helped the chosen charity.9. What are you advised to do for your mother at doctor's visits?A. Take notes.B. Be with her.C. Buy medicine.D. Give her gifts.10. Where can you find a gift idea to improve your mother's sleep?A. In Gift No. 1.B. In Gift No. 2.C. In Gift No. 3.D. In Gift No. 4.11．Buying gifts from Presents for Purpose allows mothers to________．A. enjoy good sleepB. be wellorganizedC. get extra supportD. give others helpDHere is an astonishing and significant fact: Mental work alone can't make us tired.It sounds absurd.But a few years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue(疲劳)．To the amazement of these scientists, they discoveredthat blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素) and fatigue products.But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning.The brain is totally tireless.So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情感的) attitudes.One of England's most outstanding scientists, J．A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin.In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr.Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further.He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of a sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated—those are the emotions that tire sitting workers.Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue.We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.12．What surprised the scientists a few years ago?A．Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer's blood.B．Albert Einstein didn't feel worn out after a day's work.C．The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.D．A mental worker's blood was filled with fatigue toxins.13．According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?A．Challenging mental work. B．Unpleasant emotions.C．Endless tasks. D．Physical labor.14．What's the author's attitude towards the scientists' ideas?A．He agrees with them. B．He doubts them.C．He argues against them. D．He hesitates to accept them.15．We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to ______．A．have some good food B．enjoy their workC．exercise regularly D．discover fatigue toxins阅读理解A: DABC B: BCBD C: BCD D: CBAB。

课时跟踪练(一) Warm up & Lesson 1Ⅰ.阅读理解ABill Gates was born on October 28, 1955 in a rich family. Bill strongly believes in hard work. He believes that if you are intelligent and know how to apply your intelligence, you can achieve anything.From childhood Bill was ambitious, intelligent and competitive. These qualities helped him to achieve the top position in the profession he chose. In school, he had excellent records in mathematics and science. He used to be really bored in school and his parents knew it, so they always tried to feed him with more information to keep him busy. Bill’s parents came to know about their son’s intelligence and decided to send him to a private school, known for its intense academic environment. It was a very important decision for Bill, and it was there that he was introduced to a computer.Bill Gates and his friends were very much interested in the world of programming and formed “Programmers Group” in 1968. Being in this group, they found a new way to apply their skills in University of Washington. In the next year, they got their first opportunity in an information company, in which they were selected as programmers.Soon afterwards, Bill and his close friend Allen started a new company of their own —TrafOData. They developed a small computer to measure the traffic flow. From this project they earned around $20,000. The company TrafOData came to an end when Bill left the college. In 1973, he left home for Harvard University. He studied law and mathematics there. He did well there, but he found them boring soon. Within a year, Bill dropped out from Harvard. Then he formed Microsoft.Bill is a person with big dreams and works very hard to achieve them. His belief in high intelligence and hard work has put him where he is today. He does not believe in luck but just hard work. He likes playing the game of risk and keeping the whole world under control. His beliefs are so powerful, which have helped him increase his wealth and his monopoly (垄断) in the industry.语篇解读：比尔·盖茨是一位成功人士。

Unit 2 RobotsⅠ.阅读理解(2017·海南省海口市第一中学月考)Why do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It is an increasingly urgent question, given the recent mining accidents in Sago, W. Va and Huntington, Utah. A small group of engineers and robotics experts look forward to a day in the nottoodistant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work.Robotic technology, in particular, holds much promise, McAteer says, especially when it comes to mapping mines and rescuing trapped miners—the special operations of the mining industry.One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog. It used lasers(激光器) to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest design is called Cave Crawler. It's a bit smaller than Groundhog，and even more advanced. It can take photos and videos and has more sensors that can detect the presence of dangerous gases. Incredibly，the robot has a real sense of logic. If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused. It has to think about what to do and where to go next. Sometimes it throws_a_fit just like a real person.The greatest problem, though, is cost. The money of the earliest research project was provided by the government, but that money had dried up, and it's not clear where future money will come from. Partly for that reason, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, fatalities(致命性) have declined by 67% and injuries by 51%, according to the National Mining Association.Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry. The robots do the most boring and dangerous jobs，but won't get rid of the need for human workers.1．The latest robot is more advanced than Groundhog, mainly because ________.A．it can map abandoned minesB．it has a real sense of logicC．it can see in the dark tunnelsD．it's smaller than Groundhog2．The underlined phrase “throws a fit” in paragraph 4 probably means “________”．A．gets sick B．gets angryC．becomes hungry D．becomes cheerful3．We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.A．the mine robots will have a very bright futureB．robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industryC．there will be no need for human workers in minesD．robots in mines only do some simple jobs now4．We can infer from the text that ________.A．robots cannot do dangerous work in dark areasB．the mining robots do most of the mining work at presentC．groundhog can discover the presence of dangerous gasesD．experts are trying to make robots help miners with dangerous work答案与解析文章介绍了一种新研发的机器人，和以前的Groundhog相比，它有真正的逻辑能力，最重要的是，它可以帮助矿工们做一些危险的事情。
