For example, the phrase in my opinion tells us that the passage is likely meant to persuade. And a text that uses imperatives is likely meant to instruct. For example, a passage written by some expert is likely meant to give some tips or lessons to its readers. A passage's content helps identify its audience. For example, a passage that gives tips on looking after pets would have pet owners as its audience.

No More Disasters Smart homes will be able to prevent serious damage from accidents.For example，if a water pipe starts leaking㉕，or if there is a short㉖ in the electrical wiring㉗，your smart home will detect㉘ it and provide you with㉙ the relevant㉚ information.This way，you will be able to fix㉛ the problem before your home becomes flooded㉜ or catches fire㉝. This smart technology is not a fantasy㉞.Many of these new innovations㉟ are already available㊱ and being used in some homes.In this sense㊲，the home of tomorrow is already the home of today.Nevertheless㊳，it will take some years before most new homes begin to use this new technology. 智能家居让生活更简单 你忘记过锁你家的门吗？或者，你忘记过关闭电视或电脑吗？这些事情经常在我们身上发生，浪费资源，有时还会带来一些问题。然而，在不久的将来，我们将生活在智能家居中：当我们不在(家)时，智能家居会为我们锁上门；当我们忘记关掉电视时，智能家居会记得关掉它。这些智能家居将确保我们的安全，为我们节省能源，并提供一个更舒适的居住环境。 智能控制 如今，我们不得不用开关控制电灯，用旋钮控制电器，用遥控器控制我们的电视和空调。在未来，我们每天都会使用先进技术对家中几乎所有东西进行自动化控制。未来的房屋将使用集成传感器来判断你每天早上什么时候离开家，然后自动进入节能模式。你不必再想着自己打开和关闭开关。你的(智能)房屋也会了解你的日常生活习惯和喜好，所以当你每天晚上到家时，一切都会为你准备好。你一进家门，灯就会亮起，还有你最喜欢的音乐或电视节目(会自动播放)，而且你会发现晚餐已为你准备好了。所有的控制都会响应语音命令，所以如果你想改变你的日常生活习惯，你只需大声说出你想要的，房屋系统就会遵照执行。 定期健康检查 此外，你的智能房屋将每天为你监测你的健康状况。例如，你的床会记录你每晚的睡眠情况，也会检查你的体重。如果你开始出现睡眠或体重问题，它会向你的手机发送警告。它也会给你关于更健康的饮食以及如何睡得更好的建议。智能卫生间也会持续跟踪你的健康状况。如果出现不正常的情况，或者你得了癌症之类的重病，它们会提前警告你，这有可能挽救你的生命。 不再有灾难 智能家居将能防止事故造成的严重损失。例如，如果水管漏水或发生电线短路，你的智能家居将会探测出来，并给你提供相关的信息。这样，你就能在你家被水淹没或着火之前解决问题。 这种智能技术并非空想。这些新发明中的许多已经可用，并正在一些家庭中使用。从这种意义上说，明天的家已经是今天的家了。然而，大多数新家庭还需要几年才能开始使用这项新技术。 Part 3　语篇研析 1．What's the main idea of the text?

Ray Kurzweil is the author of the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines.He is also one of the world's best computer research scientists.He is researching the possibilities. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices.An example of this is Ramona, the virtual (虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil's website, created by the computer, who is able to understand what you say.Visitors to the website can have their own conversations with her.Ramona also dances and sings. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical problems.One of his ideas is a “seeing machine”．This will be “like a friend that could describe what is going on around”，he explains.Blind people will use a sensor (传感器) which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses.This machine will describe to the person everything it sees. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the “listening machine”．This invention will recognize millions of words and understand any speaker.It will also be able to translate what it hears into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it. But it is not just about helping people with physical problems.Looking further into future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to store what we hear, see and think in a computer.This technology probably won't be ready for at least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.

D．The understanding between people. 答案：A 2 3 1 4 段落大意题。根据第四段第一句“Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the ‘listening machine’．”可知，第四段谈论的是the listening machine。故选A。 2 3 1 4 4．What can be the best title for the text? A．Future Lifestyles B．Virtual Hostesses C．Intelligent Machines D．Great Computer Scientists 答案：C 2 3 1 4 标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“...but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is the author of the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines.He is also one of the world's best computer research scientists.He is researching the possibilities.”及下文列举的几种智能机器可知，本文最佳标题是C项“Intelligent Machines”。 2 3 1 4 B The use of AI (artificial intelligence) is becoming more common in many branches of industry and online shopping.Traditional lines of work，such as goods transport and driving，are developing in a similar direction although mainly out of public view.Scientists at the University of Göttingen have now investigated how efficient (高效的) the use of AI can be in the commercial management of trucks. “Digital applications—as well as machine learning，a kind of AI—are increasingly applied to operations and courses in the transport area，” explains Professor Matthias Klumpp from the Faculty of Economics.“The question in the commercial area，however，is whether or not this contributes to achieving goals.” To answer this question，the researchers compared the work efficiency of truck drivers with their main use of AI applications.Looking at trade delivery by truck，they studied three groups：the first drove completely following human decision-making models；the second used a combination of human and machine；and the third depended completely on fully automated decisions. The researchers found that an intelligent combination of human work and decision-making abilities with AI applications promises the highest transport and driving efficiency.“On average，the second group achieved the most efficient transport trips，with the fewest interventions (干预) and off-course from the best path.” One researcher said，“Clearly，neither a completely human decision-making structure nor a fully automated driving system can promise to meet current goods transport requirements.” The scientists therefore summarized that despite the progress of AI in the field of transportation by truck，human experience and decision-making abilities will still be necessary in the longer term.However，the challenge is that a wide range of training and qualification (资格) needs will come along by working with AI applications，especially for simple goods transport activities.
