Ⅱ.阅读理解
(2017·河南息县一中段考)
Robots are being used for the first time in hospitals.“Robot-nurses”perform a variety of tasks such as delivering medicine，food and laboratory samples to sickrooms and taking away waste.Patients aren’t treated by robots，as this is still done by medical staff.The idea is to employ robots to transport supplies between departments.
“Nurses often have to break off from what they are doing to gather supplies，” says Peter Seiff，who makes the robots called TUGs.Research shows any interruption in medical work can lead to errors—a nurse may forget whether she has given medicine and may give a patient double the dose(剂量) or none at all.
The robots vary in size according to what job they perform，but normally take the shape of a metal box on wheels，with a box on the side containing their software.
After being programmed，the robots are able to find their way around a hospital unassisted.They also contain scanning technology to create electronic pictures or a “memory” of routes on hard drives to help them go through passages，doors and other obstacles.Each robot is also monitored at the producer’s headquarters(总部) in case it runs into any difficulties.
Trials show TUGs reduce the time it takes for a patient to receive medicine，and stop drugs from going missing.A study at the University of Maryland Medical Centre in the U．S.found that when three TUGs were used over the course of a year，the average length of time from the drugstore receiving a prescription to the patient receiving it dropped from 74 minutes to 30 minutes and saved nurses 6,123 hours finding medicines.It also cut the number of medicines that went missing to zero.
“The biggest complaints we receive from patients is that the nurses don’t spend
enough time with them.Anything that frees nurses is a boon，” says Katherine Mulligan，director of nursing at the hospital，“The TUGs allow nurses to spend more time focusing on patient care.Nurse satisfaction has improved.”
11．Which of the following activities are robot-nurses NOT programmed to deal with? A．Transporting supplies.
B．Taking away waste.
C．Taking care of patients.
D．Creating electronic pictures.
答案 C
解析细节理解题。

根据第一段第三句“Patients aren’t treated by robots...”可知，机器人护士没有照顾病人这一项。

故选C。

12．The underlined word “boon” in the last paragraph probably means “”．A．benefit B．dream
C．habit D．complaint
答案 A
解析词义猜测题。

根据最后一段最后两句“The TUGs allow nurses to spend more time focusing on patient care.Nurse satisfaction has improved.”可知，TUGs解放了护士，护士的满意度提高了，即TUGs给护士带来了好处。

所以这里的“boon”意为“利益”。

故选A。

13．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Robots can help nurses save a lot of time.
B．All robots have the same size.
C．Robots are unable to find their way by themselves.
D．Robots cannot get help if they run into difficulties.
答案 A
解析细节理解题。

根据第五段第二句“...when three TUGs were used over the course of a year...saved nurses 6,123 hours finding medicines.”可知，机器人可以帮助护士节约很多时间。

故选A。

14．What is the attitude of the author towards robot-nurses?
A．Neutral. B．Positive.
C．Negative. D．Unknown.
答案 B
解析观点态度题。

根据倒数第二段首句“Trials show TUGs reduce the time it takes for a patient to receive medicine，and stop drugs from going missing.”可知，作者对机器人护士的态度是乐观的。

故选B。

(2016·山东威海模拟)
It’s Nice to Be Home
15 I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.They were wonderful adventures filled with new sights and experiences.And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.
We’re home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 16 I find that when I am at home，particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip，I feel very comfortable.Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same I can move through it almost without thinking. 17 Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants，although it’s nice to let someone else do the cooking，and because I can sleep in my own bed.There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home and I’m sure I would be very comfortable if that were to happen.
18
Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see.We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so. 19 Still，one of the best things about travelling for me is coming home.I’m very comfortable here at home even if it is difficult to say exactly why.
A．I like travelling very much.
B．I enjoy local food while travelling.
C．I like being home，for whatever reason.
D．Perhaps it is because our friends are here.
E．And I enjoy my daily life at home so much.
F．We want to see as much of the world as we can.
G．It’s lucky that my wife and I both love travelling.
15．答案 A
解析下文“I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.”可知与旅游有关，而符合题意的只有A和G，文意是我到过很多国家旅行，所以排除G(很幸运我和我的妻子都

解析由下文“I find that when I am at home，particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip，I feel very comfortable.”可知旅行回来待在家里感到很舒适，所以此处说的是我也享受在家的生活，所以答案是E。

17．答案 D
解析根据空格处的上句“Perhaps it is because...”及下句“Perhaps it is because...”可知此处使用的是排比句，所以空处也应是“Perhaps it is because...”，符合题意的只有D选项。

18．答案 C
解析前文“There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home and I’m sure I would be very comfortable if that were to happen.”可知我喜欢待在家里，承接下句我喜欢待在家里，无论什么原因，所以答案是C。

19．答案 F
解析前文“We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so.”提到我们还会再一次旅行，根据选项可知此处是选择再一次旅行的原因是多看看世界，所以答案是F。
