Ⅰ阅读理解AA Harvard study of their graduates over thirty years found that therewere only a small percentage(3%) of them who actually wrote downtheir goals and these were the most successful! You can be certain thatevery one of those students had repeatedly heard the value of goalsetting. Yet only 3% actually wrote down their goals consistently. Imagine what you can do if you both write down your goals and, then, focus on them consistently, until they are accomplished!What is it that causes the “New Year’s Resolution Syndrome”?People make resolutions, work hard at them for a few weeks, maybe even a few months, and then forget them. Next year, they make the same New Year’s resolutions. That is the syndrome. So why do so many people do it?They may be making goals that are too global, and too unrealistic. The elephant analogy(比喻) is still the best one I know of to illustrate good goal setting.“How do you eat an elephant? One spoonful at a time.” So it is with goals. Make spoon size goals and accomplish them easily. Once you’ve mastered this, get a bigger spoon!You may have too many people in your life who consciously or subconsciously are unwilling or unable to support you to reach your goals. Surround yourself with people who want you to have what you want for yourself. Support each other and you’ll all achieve your highest goals.We must be careful not to confuse busyness with progress. Be selective about how you use your time and what you focus on. Success often comes when you know what to leave out, rather than what to include in your life.Goal setting is like the pig and chicken who were out for a walk in town early one morning. The chicken became really excited when she saw a sign that said “Ham & Eggs, $2.99”. She said to the pig, “Look, we’ve got double billing again.”The pig grunted and said, “That’s all right for you to say. For you, it’s all in a day’s work. For me, it’s total commitment.”Goal setting is all in a day’s work. Goal achievement is total commitment.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。

BGeorgia Tech is developing a robot that could eventually be used todress humans in hospitals and elderly homes. According to the university,more than 1 million Americans require daily physical assistance to getdressed because of injury, disease and advanced age.To address this problem researchers are developing a robot that cansuccessfully slide hospital gowns(长袍) onto people’s arms. The robotknown as PR2 taught itself to complete the task in just a single day byanalyzing over 11,000 simulated(模拟的) examples of a robot putting agown onto a human arm.“People learn new skills using trial and error. We gave the PR2 the same opportunity,”said Zackory Erickson, the lead Georgia Tech Ph.D. student on the research team. “Doing thousands of trials on a human would have been dangerous, let alone impossibly dull. But in just one day,using simulations, the robot learned what a person may physically feel while getting dressed.”The examples also allowed the robot to predict the consequences of different motions(动作). In some cases, moving the gown in one way led to the cloth being pulled tight. However, the robot can slide the gown on smoothly in other ways. The robot could use these predictions to select the right motions to comfortably and efficiently dress the patient. Once the robot did well in simulation, it turned to real patients.“The key is that the robot is always thinking ahead,”said Charlie Kemp, an associate professor at Georgia Tech. “It asks itself, ‘If I pull the gown this way, will it cause more or less force on the person’s arm? What would happen if I go that way instead?’ The more robots can understand us, the more they’ll be able to help us. By predicting the physical implications of their actions, robots can provide assistance that is safer, more comfortable and more effective.”Currently, the robot is able to just slide the sleeve of the gown onto the arm of a patient, and researchers say the final goal of fully dressing a human requires much more development and research.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍乔治亚理工大学正在研发一款穿衣机器人,从而帮助那些生活无法自理的人穿衣服。

( )A、announcedB、broadcastC、declaredD、advertised【答案】:第6题【阅读理解】阅读理解When I was a child, I had to go to church and obey many other rules, though these rules at times caused resentment (怨恨). Perhaps the most extreme parenting decision my parents made for my four brothers and sisters and me was to create a home environment without a television.We hated this decision at that time, because there was seemingly no way to keep this embarrassing fact a secret at school. Naturally, simple pleasures like cartoons, football games, and movies became huge novelties (新奇事物). I would go over to friends" or relatives" houses for that access alone.When I reached high school, my parents bought a television, though it had no cable. However, I did spend most of my childhood in a home without a television. In fact not having a television did contribute a great deal to my skills, and it also forced me to develop other valuable interests. We grew up in a small town, so my brothers and sisters and I spent time exploring streets, fields and woods. And of course I read and wrote and studied, which pushed me toward a career path.So would I give a similar situation to my own children if I had them? I doubt it, at least not in the most extreme sense. I"m too much of a football fan, not to mention the TV serials (连续剧) like The Wire. But television or almost anything for that matter is unhealthy for kids. It can prevent them from living a full life. So maybe a reasonable answer is no cable or no video-game systems or simply setting the time limit, but I haven"t exactly worked out how to confine it yet. Although some people are against my idea, we do need limits after all.From the passage we can learn that ________.A、the author didn"t like watching TV as a childB、the author"s family seldom went to churchC、not having a TV set brought the author many benefitsD、few homes had a TV set when the author was a childFrom the last paragraph, we can learn the author thinks that ________.A、children shouldn"t watch TV too muchB、children should be forbidden to watch TVC、children should only watch serials and sports on TVD、watching TV is unhealthy for both adults and childrenWhich of the following can replace the underlined word “confine” in the last paragraph?A、Limit.B、PunishC、Reject.D、Support.【答案】:【解析】:第7题【阅读理解】阅读理解。

( )A、announcedB、broadcastC、declaredD、advertised【答案】:【解析】:第3题【阅读理解】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C或D)中,选出最佳选项We all have four to six dreams per night. But why do some people seem to r emember their dreams while others don’t?People who report that they have good dream recollection are more likely, than others who don’t, to have been woken up during a stage of sleep referred to as REM (rapid eye movement). This is the stage of sleep where dreams occur, and if you’re woken up during it you may recall the dream you were having more readily.Light sleepers who are woken up very easily by the slightest sound tend to report having many more dreams they can remember than heavy sleepers who can nod off during thunder and lightening and do not know they’ve been dreaming at all. Therefore one way to remember your dreams is to set an alarm to go offf requently during the night, as you’ll have more chances of waking during REM sleep. However,doing this exercise regularly will be bad for your sleeping pattern, and may mess with your body clock.Interestingly, some people have the ability to dream to order, to a degree. If they focus on thinking about remembering their dreams, get a dream journal ready to write in and place it by their bed at night and tell themselves they will write down their dreams upon waking, they’re more likely to actually produce a memorable dream.Studies have shown us that during dreams we often play out different scenarios (情节) and our brains work out how to deal with them, should they actually occur in waking life. Thus, if you dreamed you lost your car keys and needed to find another way of getting to your destination, this could just be your mind working out what you would do in the future if this happened to you. The reason why people don’t always remember dreams is that it would interfere (干扰) with waking life. An overload of information which may not be necessary could confuse your daily thinking, and lead you to perform less well. However, storing information away in your mental filing system located in your subconscious (潜意识), in case you ever need it, is far more efficient.What can we learn about REM?A、Sleepers are hard to wake up during REM sleep.B、People who can’t remember their dreams don’t have REM sleep.C、Both light sleepers and heavy sleepers can experience REM sleepD、People who are woken up during REM sleep will forget their dreams.Which group of people are most likely to forget their dreams?A、People who are ready to write a dream journal.B、People who desire to find a solution in their dreams.C、People who set an alarm to go off frequently during the night.D、People who are hard to be disturbed by surrounding sounds during sleep.It is bad for people to remember all of their dreams because________.A、that will confuse their daily thinkingB、that will make people feel exhaustedC、they will judge everything by senseD、they will be guided by their dreamsFrom the last sentence, we can infer that________.A、effective ways need to be developed to fully make use of our dreamsB、people who regularly forget their dreams will never know their mind wellC、scientists will give us much deeper explanations for what our dreams meanD、those forgotten dreams are stored in our bra in and will be remembered if neededThe passage mainly discusses________.A、how important dreams are to healthB、the reason why people forget their dreamsC、the relationship between one’s dream and sleepD、different stages of sleep and people’s changes in each one【答案】:【解析】:第4题【改错题】假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

Ⅰ单句语法填空1.As is known to all, the 2022 Winter Olympics will__be__held(hold) in Beijing and towns in the neighboring Hebei Province.2.In China, the practice of presenting the best food first to the senior members of the family has__been__observed(observe) for generations.3.Up to now, a large number of new houses have__been__built(build) in what used to be a wasteland.4.The decision to__be__made(make) at tomorrow’s meeting will affect a lot of people.5.His book is said to__have__been__translated(translate) into more than 30 languages since it was__published(publish) in the 1940s.6.Your pencil case is nowhere to__be__found(find), and I will buy a new one for you this weekend.7.The fire is reported to__have__been__caused(cause) by a cigarette end, which was thrownby one tourist.8.The best and most beautiful thing in the world cannot be__seen(see) or even touched for it must be__felt(feel).9.It is a great honor for me to__be__asked(ask) to speak at the meeting on behalf of the whole class.10.The kids were__allowed(allow) to go swimming in the river, which made them very happy.Ⅱ阅读理解We live in a golden age of misinformation. On Twitter, false newsspreads further and faster than the truth. In the runup to the 2016 USpresidential election, the most popular false articles got more Facebookshares, reactions and comments than the top real news, according to aBuzzFeed Ne w s analysis.Before the Internet, “You could not have a person sitting in a room and generating conspiracy(阴谋) theories at a mass scale,”says Luca de Alfaro, a computer scientist at the University of California. But with today’s social media, selling lies is too easy—whether those lies come from a company like Disinfomedia, which has owned several false news websites, or a crowd of teenagers in Macedonia who got huge sums of money by writing popular false news.Most Internet users probably aren’t intentionally broadcasting nonsense. Information overload and the Web surfers’limited attention span aren’t exactly good at fact-checking inspection. Confirmation bias(偏见) feeds in as well. “When they’re dealing with unfiltered information, it’s likely that people will choose something that meets with their own thinking, even if that information is false,”says Fabiana Zollo, a computer scientist in Italy who studies how information circulates on social networks.Intentional or not, sharing misinformation can have serious consequences. False news doesn’t just threaten the equity of elections and wear away public trust in real news. It threatens lives. Rumors(谣言) that spread on WhatsApp, a smartphone messaging system, for instance, led to murder cases in India that left more than a dozen people dead.To help sort false news from truth, programmers are building automated systems that judge the truth of online stories. A computer program might consider certain characteristics of an article or the reception an article gets on social media. Computers that recognize certain warning signs could warn human fact-checkers, who would do the final check. “Automatic liefinding tools are still in their babyhood,”says computer scientist Giovanni Luca Ciampaglia of Indiana University Bloomington.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。

And that’s before he helps you with your homework。
This is your future, and it all starts with a knee.high robot called NAO (pronounced NOW). It kind of looks like you,walks and dances, listens and talks, and even learns and thinks for itself。
Its creators predict that the stateof.theart robot could be a companion at home by the year 2040.This $16,000 robot recognizes human facial features,so it knows who you are。
NAO can even express emotions. It represents the new generation of “autonomous” - or selfguided robots. These robots can sense, think, and act. Other robots might do two out of the three。

Unit 2 RobotsⅠ阅读理解A(2018·浙江金、丽、衢十二校高三联考)Life is not always easy. One day you wake up feeling like you can take over the world, and the next day you wake up feeling like all you want to do is to lie in bed and hide from everything.People walk into your life, grab your hand, and lead you through the most beautiful path you’ve known, but sometimes the same people let go of your hand without warning, and you become stranded at a place where you never thought you’d feel lost.Let’s be honest, sometimes everything is going so great and it seems like nothing could go wrong, but right when you begin to think that, something so horrible comes crashing down and all of a sudden more problems come drowning around you and you just feel so hopeless because it’s so bad...It’s so hard to understand why such things happen in life, and I personally wish I had an answer to that “why” you always ask yourself, but all I can say is no matter how hard life gets, you have to keep going. The life around you will never stop going on.I’ll be honest and say that sometimes I feel a little bit worried and all I can think is “Will I be able to keep up? What if everything goes too fast?” But I realize that being scared and living with that burden of running away from problems only slow me down even more.And I’ve come to the point where I believe that because life never stops, I shouldn’t stop either. It’s okay to take a break and to give yourself time to heal, but you cannot give up and you cannot quit.Keep positive, fill your heart with gratitude for what you already have, and always remind yourself to be humble and true to who you are!【解题导语】本文讲述了生活的不易,告诫人们要保持积极的心态,心中充满感激,要谦虚。
