Unit 2 Robots————[单元主题语境]———人与社会之科技发展与信息技术创新,科学精神,信息安全(2019·高考全国卷Ⅰ)话题:智能键盘词数:255 难度:★★★As data and identity theft bees more and more mon,the market is growing for biometric (生物测量) technologies—like fingerprint scans—to keep others out of private espaces.At present,these technologies are still expensive,though.Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have e up with a lowcost device(装置) that gets around this problem:a smart keyboard.This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence (节奏) with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each key.The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a user's typing and the time between key presses.These patterns are unique to each person.Thus,the keyboard can determine people's identities,and by extension,whether they should be given access to the puter it's connected to—regardless of whether someone gets the password right.It also doesn't require a new type of technology that people aren't already familiar with.Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.In a study describing the technology,the researchers had 100 volunteers type the word “touch”four times using the smart keyboard.Data collected from the device could be used to recognize different participants based on how they typed,with very low error rates.The researchers say that the keyboard should be pretty straightforward to mercialize and is mostly made of inexpensive,plasticlike parts.The team hopes to make it to market in the near future.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇科研报道。

2020届一轮复习人教版选修七Unit 2 Robots单元教案Part 1: Teaching Design第一部分:教学设计Period 1: A sample lesson plan for reading (Satisfaction Guaranteed)AimsTo help students develop their reading abilityTo help students learn about robotsProceduresI. Warming up by getting to know: What is a robot?Robotics is the science of studying and creating robots. It is a very broad and interesting science, because like humans, robots have many fascinating aspects. It is also a new science. Although people have been imagining and writing stories about robots for many years, robotics has been a real science only since the 1970'sWhy do we need robots? First, they are hardworking and reliable. They can do dangerous work or work that is very boring or tiring for humans. They can work around the clock without complaining and without needing rest, food or vacations. And robots can go places that humans can not, such as the surface of Mars, deep under the ocean or inside the radioactive parts of a nuclear power plant.II. Pre-readingTalking about the three Laws of RoboticsAccording to Isaac Asimov, the Three Laws of Robotics are:1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where suchorders would conflict with the First Law.3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.III. Reading for formsRead the text Satisfaction Guaranteed again to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, blacken the predicates, darken the connectives and underline all the useful expressions.IV. Copying expressions and writing articlesYou are asked to copy all the useful expressions into your notebook after class as homework. You may write your own short articles using these expressions.V. Questioning and answeringNow let’s go over the text again by questioning and answering. Satisfaction GuaranteedB: Larry Belmont worked for a company that made robots.A: What was the company experimenting with recently?B: Recently it was experimenting with a robot that could be used to do the housework.A: By whom was it going to be tested out?B: It was going to be tested out by Larry’s wife, Claire.A: Why didn’t Claire want the robot in her hou se?B: Claire didn’t want the robot in her house, especially as her husbandwould be absent for three weeksA: How did Claire feel when she first saw the robot?B: When she first saw the robot, she felt alarmed.A: What was the robot like?B: The robot, called Tony, didn’t look like a machineat all. He was tall and handsome although his facial expressions never changed. His hair was smooth and black and his voice was deep.A: What did the robot do the second morning?B: On the second morning Tony brought her breakfast and then asked her whether she needed help dressing.A: How did Claire react?B: She felt embarrassed and quickly told him to go. It was disturbing and frightening that he looked so human.B: One day, Cl aire mentioned that she didn’t think she was clever.A: And what did Tony, the robot, say to her?B: Tony said that she must feel very unhappy to say that.A: How did Claire feel about a robot’s sympathy?B: Claire thought it was ridiculous to be offered sympathy by a robot.…VI. Reading the text again to discover the leading sentence of each paragraphSatisfaction Guaranteed1.A robot used to do the housework was going to be tested out byLarry’s wife, Claire.2.The robot, called Tony, didn’t look like a m achine at all.3.It was disturbing and frightening to Claire that Tony looked sohuman.4.But Claire began to trust Tony.5.Tony wanted to please Claire by helping her make herself and herhome elegant.6.Tony gave Claire a new haircut and changed the makeup she wore.7.Tony expected the house to be completely transformed.8.Tony worked steadily on the improvements.9.Tony folded his arms around Claire, bending his face close to hers.10.C laire might not be as beautiful as those women, but none of themhad such a handsome lover.11.T hen she remembered – Tony was just a machine.12.T he company was very pleased with Tony’s report on his three weekswith Claire.VII. Closing down by reading a robot poemMy Robot Does My Homework My robot does my homework. He helps me every night.The trouble is he doesn't gettoo many answers right. He'd probably do betterat homework but, you see,I built him, so he only knows the things he learned from me. --Kenn NesbittA.be;should have B.was;should have C.should be;.was;Period 2: A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language (Revise the passive voice including the infinitive)AimsTo help students revise the Passive V oiceTo help students discover and learn to use some useful words and expressionsTo help students discover and learn to use some useful structures ProceduresI. Warming up by having a dictationTo begin with, let’s take a dictation to strengthen our memory of the text.II. Discovering useful words and expressionsNow go to page 13. Work in pairs to finish the three exercises in 10 minutes.III. Reading more about the 22nd centuryThe 22nd CenturyThe 22nd Century began with high crime rates within major cities, and life on Earth was tough. In 2105 the Terra Alpha colony reported back that all was well. Their planet had native plant and animal life, however, no sentient life had been found. Mining equipment was being set-up, and all was well.It was news such as this which started to motivate mankind to continue its exploration of space. Opposition to T-Mat had already started to appear, but the final straw was in 2110, when Earth received a major shock as both the moon base and Earth itself was attacked by the Neo-Martians.Their plan was foiled by a crack group of three men, and the global councils had the task of repairing all the damage resulting from the Martian assault. The attack had taught Earth a lesson; the ISC was given greater powers and taxes were raised to finance space travel. "Co-operation Is Key" was the media hype, and work began in establishing a true world government. T-Mat was regulated to a more normal usage and a new space-exploration program began.A true world government was finally achieved in 2113, with 99% of former countries joining. The other 1% dissolved and thereafter a new World President was elected. Individual countries were treated as federal states (for example, the USA was treated as five different states).As the 2110's began, mankind discovered the first, still rudimentary FTL propulsion. In addition, sub-ether FTL communication had been perfected. Both of these technologies propelled matter or energy at Warp 2. Thus, communication was no faster than transport. A second wave of colonization ships, this time using warp drives, was launched in 2114. IV. Learning about the passive voiceACTIVE AND PASSIVE TENSES CHARTV. Discovering useful structuresGo to page 14, and finish the two exercises in pairs.VI. Closing down by reading aloud a future poemTraverse : Into The Future by Je ' FreeWhat I say now may be elementary -Once man unravels time and its mysteryWe travel to the past by memory Imagination’s what our future will beDelve in the theories of the human mindsIt’s heaven or hell or in between those linesPush to one direction, a radical turnWe see this paradox a great concernWe have explored it almost endlessly - How we can change the course of historyKaleidoscopic the world seems to beWe need a mechanism to set us freeTraverse the unreached boundaries...Where there’s no war, poverty, and pollutionTraverse the possibilities... Where there’s no environmental devastationTraverse the unknown energy... Where th ere’s a parallel dimension disguisedTraverse levels of this mystery... Where we will be spending the rest of our livesPeriod 3: A sample lesson plan for Using Language(A Biography of Isaac Asimov)AimsTo help students read the passage ABiography of Isaac AsimovTo help students to use the language byreading, listening, speaking and writingProceduresI. Warming up by making passive voice sentences1. The new TV design will be tested out by the new engineers.2. You are not wanted in her house.3.
