1、高考英语阅读理解的综合专项训练附答案一、高中英语阅读理解1阅读理解 The new social robots, including Jibo, Cozmo, Kuri and Meccano M.A.X., bear some resemblance to assistants like Apples Siri, but these robots come with something more. They are designed to win us over not with their smarts but with their personality. They are sold a

2、s companions that do more than talk to us. Time magazine hailed (称赞) the robots that could fundamentally reshape how we interact with machines. But is reshaping how we interact with machines a good thing, especially for children? Some researchers in favor of the robots dont see a problem with this.

3、People have relationships with many kinds of things. Some say robots are just another thing with which we can have relationships. To support their argument, roboticists sometimes point to how children deal with toy dolls. Children animate (赋予生命) dolls and turn them into imaginary friends. Jibo, in a

4、 sense, will be one more imaginary friend, and arguably a more intelligent and fun one. Getting attached to dolls and sociable machines is different, though. Todays robots tell children that they have emotions, friendships, even dreams to share. In reality, the whole goal of the robots is emotional

5、trickery. For instance, Cozmo the robot needs to be fed, repaired and played with. Boris Sofman, the chief executive of Anki, the company behind Cozmo, says that the idea is to create a deeper and deeper emotional connection . And if you neglect him, you feel the pain of that. What is the point of t

6、his, exactly? What does it mean to feel the pain of neglecting something that feels no pain at being neglected, or to feel anger at being neglected by something that doesnt even know it is neglecting you? This should not be our only concern. It is troubling that these robots try to empathize with ch

7、ildren. Empathy allows us to put ourselves in the place of others, to know what they are feeling. Robots, however, have no emotions to share, and they cannot put themselves in our place. No matter what robotic creatures say or squeak, they dont understand our emotional lives. They present themselves

8、 as empathy machines, but they are missing the essential equipment. They have not been born, they dont know pain, or death, or fear. Robot thinking may be thinking, but robot feeling is never feeling, and robot love is never love. What is also troubling is that children take robots behavior to indic

9、ate feelings. When the robots interact with them, children take this as evidence that the robots like them, and when robots dont work when needed, children also take it personally. Their relationships with the robots affect their self-esteem (自尊). In one study, an 8-year-old boy concluded that the r

10、obot stopped talking to him because the robot liked his brothers better. For so long, we dreamed of artificial intelligence offering us not only simple help but conversation and care. Now that our dream is becoming real, it is time to deal with the emotional downside of living with robots that feel.

11、（1）How are the new social robots different from Siri? A.They are intended to teach children how to talk.B.They are designed to attract people with their smarts.C.Their main function is to evaluate childrens personality.D.They have a new way to communicate with human beings.（2）In Paragraph 3 Cozmo is

12、 used as an example to show that the social robots _. A.are deeply connected with human beingsB.are unable to build a real relationship with childrenC.are so advanced that they can feel the pain of human beingsD.are not good enough to carry out the instructions of children（3）The underlined phrase es

13、sential equipment in Paragraph 4 refers to _. A.emotionB.painC.fearD.thinking（4）Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage? I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionA.B.C.D.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）A（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，新的社交机器人与以往机器人不同，他们不仅比我们聪明还有他们的个性。时代周刊称它彻底改变了我

14、们与机器互动的方式。但是对这种改变有的科学家赞同而有很多人也很担忧。 （1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中 的“The new social robots, including Jibo, Cozmo, Kuri and Meccano M.A.X., bear some resemblance to assistants like Apples Siri, but these robots come with something more.”可知，新的社交机器人与像苹果的Siri这样的助理有相同之处，但比它们有更多功能；再根据第一段中的“Time magazine hailed (称赞) the

15、 robots that “could fundamentally reshape how we interact with machines.”可知，社交机器人彻底改变了我们与机器互动的方式，可以推知以一种新的方式与人们交流互动。故选D。 （2）考查推理判断。Cozmo是第三段的举例，举例肯定是用来证明本段或者其前边的观点的。本段的中心是“Getting attached to dolls and sociable machines is different, though.”与洋娃娃相处与与社交机器相处是不同的；再根据第三段中的“What does it mean to feel the

16、pain of neglecting something that feels no pain at being neglected, or to feel anger at being neglected by something that doesnt even know it is neglecting you?”你觉得忽略了机器人而难受，但是机器人并不会感觉被忽略，或者你感觉机器人冷落了你而难受但是机器人根本不知道它冷落了你，这些意味着什么呢？可知，社交机器人并不能真的跟小朋友建立感情。故选B。 （3）考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“They have not been born, th

17、ey dont know pain, or death, or fear. Robot thinking may be thinking, but robot feeling is never feeling, and robot love is never love.”可知，社交机器人不知道疼，死亡或害怕。社交机器人的思维可能是在想，但是他们的感觉从来不是感觉，他们的爱也从来不是爱。这句话是证明划线单词所在句子的论点的，他们是会同情的机器，但是他们缺少感情，导致他们所谓的感情是假的。所以划线单词词意为情感。故选A。 （4）考查篇章结构。分析文章内容，第一段提出观点：社交机器人改变了我们与机器

18、互动的方式。第二段提出一些支持这一改变的专家的想法，第三段提出一些人对这一改变的担忧，并且第三段后半部分以及第四段、第五段分别是这些人的三点担忧。最后一段总结这一趋势面临的现状。所以文章提出观点后，分为支持和反对两个观点，反对方面又列出了三点担忧，最后一段总结。故选B。 【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断，词义猜测和篇章结构三个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，考生需要根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。2阅读理解 The Outdoor City Adventure Book Festival For one week in July, Sheffield Centra

The same words can be used in different ways, depending on where you live. People can als

29、o have completely different ways of saying the same thing. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is asking the public to help it add new words. Editors want to find the regional differences in English around the world. They want to expand its record of the language. Last year, the OED, BBC Radio and t

30、he Forward Arts Foundation teamed up to find local words in the United Kingdom. It resulted in more than 100 regional words and phrases being added to the dictionary. One was cuddy wifter, which means a left-handed person. Now, the OED is widening its search to English speakers around the world. Eleanor Maier, an editor at OED, said the response has been great. Editors are listing a bunch of suggestions to include in the dictionary. These include Hawaiis hammajang, which means in a disorderly state. Another is the word f
