(2018·河南实验中学模拟）
At the end of every year， Time picks the best 25 inventions that are “making the world better and smarter”. Here we have picked three of this year’s inventions that could be a part of your life in the near future.
The levitating(悬浮的) light bulb
This special light bulb was invented by U．S。

artist and scientist Simon Morris. He got the idea of making a light bulb float from hoverboards （悬浮滑板）， which he used to dream of having as a kid.
But the floating is not the most amazing part。

The rejection force between the opposite ends of the magnets(磁铁）, which were put in the bottom of the bulb and in the wooden base， does the job. What's new here is a technology called induction （电磁感应). It allows the light bulb to get power from the base even they are not in contact.
Shoes that tie themselves
They’re not what you think。

shoelaces that tie themselves in the way we tie them. Instead， the new shoes have small motors that control their laces。

When you step in them， your feet will hit a sensor (传感器） in the shoes and the motor will automatically tighten the laces。

But the shoes weren’t just designed for lazy people's needs. They could actually give athletes an advantage during competition。

They are also useful for people who cannot move their arms or fingers easily.
The no­touch thermometer（体温计)
Taking your body temperature usually means putting a thermometer in your armpits （腋窝) and staying still for minutes。

It may be easy or you, but it's an impossible task for little kids.
Now, with the new thermometer，users can simply put it 2.5 centimeters from a patient’s forehead and press the button， and it can get reading in two seconds.
【语篇解读】每到年终岁尾，《时代周刊》都会评选出25项“让世界变得更加美好和智能的"最佳发明。

本文介绍了其中的三项发明。

1．The most amazing aspect of the levitating light bulb is that ________.
A．it can float
B．its inventor is more than a scientist
C．it makes use of the rejection of the magnets
D．induction allows it to get power even when unconnected with the base
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。

根据The levitating light bulb 部分最后两句“What's new here is。

..。

It allows the light bulb to get power from the base even they are not in contact.”可知，悬浮灯泡最神奇的地方是这项电磁感应技术可以让灯泡不用接触底座就能通电.
2．How is the no­touch thermometer different from other ones?
A．It makes it easier to take kids’ temperature。

B．You need wait two minutes for the reading.
C．You don't need to press the button.
D．It should be put in one's armpit。

答案与解析：A 推理判断题。

根据The no。

touch thermometer部分第二段可知,这种新型的体温计可以不用紧贴皮肤，而且读取数据的时间也很短。

由此可知,这个发明让儿童的体温测量变得更容易了。

3．In which part of a newspaper can you possibly read this text？
A．Education。

B．Sports。

C．Science. D．Entertainment.
答案与解析：C 推理判断题。

本文介绍了三项新的科技发明,属于科技类文章.
B
（2018·武汉市武昌区高三年级五月调研考试）
Kanda really doesn't like to walk alone。

The scientist from a research institute of intelligent robots finds the experience so boring that he’d rather drive－even though he lives close to his lab and knows that walking is healthy。

“I enjoy walking with someone, like with my wife, with my daughter," Kanda said. “But they are not always available.”
So Kanda, who specializes in human。

like bots， developed a robotic walking partner that could make small talk based on its surroundings，which, he hopes, might motivate people to get out and exercise more。

The bot rests on a person's shoulder like a boxy parrot。

It weighs about a pound and a half and sits roughly 8.5 inches high, and is 3。

5 inches wide and 10 inches long. A microphone, a speaker， and an internal camera allow it to communicate。

It's even equipped with a smile。

Kanda and his team collected video from five different locations, including a garden and a shopping mall, and created a dataset of small talk topics related to each location. Then they programmed the robot to associate visual cues with specific topics。

A special speech software provided the robot with a voice. Near a group of parked cars, for example, it might say，“In a big parking lot， sometimes I forget
where I parked。

"
They tested the robot on 15 volunteers, 10 males and 5 females, who were paid and averaged about 26 years old。

“Have you ever blown a puff of dandelion(蒲公英)seeds into the air？” The robot asked a participant， who smiled and responded，“Yes, I often did that when I was a child.” Although several participants noted the robot’s weight， Kanda was surprised that no one considered the experience strange or funny. “I guess people enjoy new technologies,” he said。

Just like a human partner，Kanda’s bot isn’t perfect. It's not able to go for walks in heavy rain and, while the robot can make expressions，it can’t really hold a conversation， about which Kanda is most worried. Despite its limits, Kanda was comforted by the bot’s presence. “I felt a kind of sense of being with someone，” he said, “particularly when it sp oke."
【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了新研发的陪人散步的机器人。

4．Why does Kanda have the idea of developing a robotic walking partner?
A．Because he wants someone to accompany him while walking.
B．Because he has never developed a robot like a parrot。

C．Because his family are unwilling to walk with him。

D．Because he is crazy about developing robots.
答案与解析：A 细节理解题.根据第一段的“‘I enjoy walking with someone, like with my wife, with my daughter,’ Kanda said. ‘But they are not always available。

’”可知，Kanda发明陪人散步的机器人的原因是想找个人在他散步时陪他,故选A.
5．What characteristic does the robot have?
A．It can “speak” and “see"．
B．It can walk like a human being.
C．It can communicate with people freely.
D．It is much more humorous than a real person.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题.根据第二段倒数第二句“A microphone， a speaker， and an interna l camera allow it to communicate”以及第三段的“Then they programmed...with a voice”可推知,这种机器人可以说话还可以看，故选A。

6．What is necessary for the robot to function?
A．A small size。

B．A boxy shape.
C．A human partner. D．A speech software.
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。

根据第二段倒数第二句“A microphon e, a speaker， and an internal camera allow it to communicate"和第三段的“Then they programmed。

A special speech software provided the robot with a voice”可知,这种机器人是要配备麦克风、扬声器、内置摄像头以及特殊的语音软件的，故选D。

7．What is Kanda most likely to do about his robot next？
A．To make it more convenient to carry.
B．To improve its conversational skills.
C．To enable it to walk in heavy rain。

D．To better its sound system。

答案与解析：B 推理判断题。

根据最后一段第二句的“it can't really hold a conversation, about which Kanda is most worried”并结合全文的内容可推知,接下来Kanda将要改善的是机器人的交流技能，故选B。

（2018·合肥市高三第三次教学质量检测)
Many years ago, when we were a young couple with two small children，aged 2 and 4, we were practically impecunious。

My in。

laws lived from hand to mouth, so we didn’t expect any help from them。

My parents lived a great distance away， and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.
My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick­up truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers, but it was constantly breaking down。

It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed。

The truck was also the only means of transportation for us。

We lived in the countryside, and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it。

One winter evening, I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something。

It was nearly dark， and I had to bend down to see what it was。

I could hardly believe my eyes。

There sat a large basket loaded with food.
It was heavy， so I called my husband to carry it into the house。

Once inside, we discovered two loaves of bread， some butter， several cans of vegetables, a can of orange sauce, and a large turkey. There was so much that I couldn’t remember it all, but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner。

everything except potatoes.
A little while later I remembered that I hadn't taken the trash to the barrel。

By now it was dark, so I had to turn on the yard light-and that’s when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch。

That dinner was the best I could remember.
We weren't able to thank our donators, though, because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family。

Whoever it was, we are forever grateful。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

“我”和丈夫有两个孩子,很多年前,我们生活贫困,但羞于将处境告诉父母。

丈夫用一辆旧卡车送货谋生.一天晚上，“我”在家门口发现一篮子丰盛的食物，那一餐令“我"终生难忘。

“我”将永远感谢那位送食物给“我”家的人。

A European Union program is letting blind people experience famous paintings for the first time. It uses three。

dimensional (3。

D） printing to recreate famous paintings so they can be touched.
One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt's
“The Kiss". It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna， Austria。

The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other。

The man leans down to kiss the woman.
Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now， people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork。

But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges and depressions。

Andreas Reichinger started making 3­ D versions of artwork in 2010。

He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple’s robes are so detailed。

Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction。

As she moved her hands around it she said，“Exactly，can you see these? There are so many details。

"Raditsch said she could imagine what the original painting looks like when she touched the reproduction. “It's somehow round.You can feel it.You can feel it。

It comes with it.And in many places it’s so smooth。

And then I think to myself： it probably shines too！”Raditsch said。

The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3­ D versions of its artwork。

Some of the pieces at the Prado Museum, in Madrid, Spain have reproductions that can be touched。

But the piece in Vienna has one special part: it is made with widely available 3。

D printing technology。

That means one day， blind art fans anywhere in the world could download the source files and print the reproductions themselves.
