1．In1936myrealfather，AlanTuring，wroteabookabouthowIcouldbemadetoworkasa“universalmachine”tosolveanydifficultmathematicalproblem.

[句式分析]　本句为主从复合句，In1936为时间状语，AlanTuring为主语myrealfather的同位语，howIcouldbemadetoworkasa“universalmachine”为介词about的宾语从句，tosolveanydifficultmathematicalproblem作目的状语。

[自主翻译]　在1936年，我真正的父亲艾伦·图灵写了一本书，讲述了怎样能使我成为一台“通用机器”来解决任何数学难题。

2．Overtimemymemoryhasdevelopedsomuchthat，likeanelephant，IneverforgetanythingIhavebeentold!

[句式分析]　本句为复合句，句中so...that...引导结果状语从句；likeanelephant为介词短语作方式状语；Ihavebeentold为省略了关系代词that的定语从句。

[自主翻译]　随着时间的推移，我的记忆能力发展得如此之快，就像一头大象一样，以至于我从来不会忘记告诉我的任何事情！

3．ButIwasalwayssolonelystandingtherebymyself，untilintheearly1960stheygavemeafamilyconnectedbyanetwork.

[句式分析]　本句为复合句，句中的standingtherebymyself为v．ing形式作伴随状语；until引导时间状语从句；connectedbyanetwork为过去分

词短语作后置定语。

[自主翻译]　但是我总是一个人孤孤单单地站在那里，直到20世纪60年代初，他们才给了我一个通过网络连接起来的家庭。

A．Anintroductionofanewdevice.

B．Anintroductionofsmartphones.

C．Anintroductionofeyecontrollingtechnology.

D．Anintroductionofanewtechnologyforthedisabled.

答案　C

解析　主旨大意题。

本文主要介绍了在不久的将来，我们可能会用我们的眼睛操作我们的智能手机和平板电脑，甚至在玩像水果忍者这样的流行游戏时也是如此。

故选C。

2．Theunderlinedword“gimmick”probablymeans“”．

A．truthB．phone

C．trickD．review

答案　C

解析　词义猜测题。

根据画线词所在句可知，它不是一种用手控制移动设备的实用方法，由此可以猜测出这些设备大多只是一种噱头，也就是一种用以吸引人的技巧，故画线词gimmick的意思是：

trick（技巧，诡计）。

故选C。

3．Accordingtothepassage，wecanlearnthat.

A．theeyecontrollingtechnologywasfirstdevelopedfortheblind

B．thereisnosuchaphoneaswecanuseonlywithoureyesatpresent

C．thepresentdevelopingofthetechnologywillbringnogood

答案　B

解析　细节理解题。

根据第一段“Inthenearfuture，wemaybeusingoureyestooperateoursmartphonesandtablets，evenwhenitcomestoplayingpopulargameslikeFruitNinja.”可知，不久的将来我们可能会有这样的智能手机，所以说目前我们还没有这样一部用眼睛控制的手机。

故选B。

4．Thispassageisprobablytakenfrom.

A．anexperimentreportB．asciencefiction

C．aschooltextbookD．asciencewebsite

答案　D

解析　文章出处题。

最后一段“Formorearticlesonmodernscience，pleaseCLICKhere.”中的“CLICK”是“点击”的意思，由此可以推断出该文章摘自一个科学网站。

故选D。

B
