Unit 7 Will people have robots 【A卷·提升卷】 一、阅读理解（每小题2分，共48分） Have you ever imagined what life will be like in 2060? An international group of forty scientists have made some surprising predictions. They said that in the next few years, our lives would change a lot. Firstly, humans can grow body parts themselves. Dr. Ellen Heber-Katz is one of the forty scientists. He says, “People will think it common that sick parts of the body can be repaired. It is just like the way we fix a car.” Scientists could use human cells (细胞) to grow new parts. New technologies like this will also help people to live longer. Within several years, most people will be able to live to be one hundred years old. Secondly, the scientists have predicted that a machine will be invented to “read” the minds of animals. In 2060, ▲ . Scientists say that humans may first “talk” with mammals (哺乳动物) and then with other animals. Our daily life will be much easier. There will be more and more smart machines in our houses to help us. What’s more, there will be great robots to help us do all kinds of chores. But what would be the biggest achievement over the next few years? A number of scientists believe it would be the finding of aliens (外星人). NASA scientist Chris McKay says, “We may find aliens in space and talk with them.” He believes marks of alien life may even be found here on Earth. Does life in 2060 sound cool to you? Let’s wait and see what will really happen then! 1．How many changes does the passage talk about？ A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 2．Which of the following can be put into “ ▲ ”? A．there will be more mammals on the earth B．we need to keep on protecting animals C．we will be able to “talk” to animals D．we can find more kinds of animals 3．What would be the biggest finding in the next few years? A．Useful medicine. B．New land. C．Smart machines. D．Aliens. 4．What’s the best title for the passage? A．What Achievements Scientists Got B．How to Live Longer C．What Robots Can Do D．How the Life Would Be in 2060 【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】 Facing our future The face is usually the first thing you notice when looking at someone. Everyone has something about their face that’s a little different. And that little difference makes facial recognition possible. You can find this technology in many popular films. In the sci-fi classic 2001: A Space Odyssey, a powerful computer is able to “read” the emotions (情绪) of astronauts by scanning (扫描) their faces. And in the 1987 action film Robocop, a cyborg (半人半机器) police officer identifies (识别) a criminal by scanning his photo on a computer. Today, facial recognition tech is no longer just in films. It has been used as a security measure (安保手段) or to identify threats (威胁). For example, in 2018, facial recognition technology helped identify and catch criminals who were attending concerts by Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung. And if you use a recent model of Apple’s iPhone, you can unlock the phone with your face. But these are just a few of the things we can use facial recognition for. The possibilities (可能性), it seems, are endless (无尽的). Grab, a ride-hailing (叫车服务) company in Southeast Asia, is developing facial recognition technology that can keep passengers safe. The technology works by scanning both the driver’s face and the passenger’s face. This way, passengers can be sure that their driver is the correct one. Retailers (零售商) are also looking to facial recognition technology to drive (促进) business. With the technology, retailers are able to “see” what their shoppers are actually looking at in stores. Later, they use this information to provide suggestions (建议) for customers in the future. 5．A powerful computer can “read” the________ of astronauts in 2001: A Space Odyssey. A．emotions B．information C．dreams D．heights 6．The cyborg police officer identifies a criminal by________. A．scanning his ID card B．scanning his photo C．searching for his information D．tests 7．Grab develops facial recognition technology to________. A．keep drivers safe B．count the number of cars C．limit the number of passengers D．keep passengers safe 8．With the facial recognition technology, retailers can________. A．sell more products B．see daily sales C．provide accurate suggestions for customers D．choose better goods 9．According to the passage, the facial recognition technology can be used to________. A．capture criminals B．capture emotions C．promote products D．All of the above. Do you know the movie I, Robot? It tells us a story about the future. The year is 2035 and robots are just as common as mobile phones. People depend on their robots to do lots of things, for example, babysitting, cooking, doing chores and taking their dogs for a walk. Robots have to obey (听从) human’s orders, because their designers make them do so. A police officer called Spooner hates robots. He doesn’t think humans can get on well with their robots at all! But the scientist Susan has different opinions. Susan works on robots’ mind and she thinks one day robots will become more powerful (强大的) than humans and help humans to make progress (进步). When Spooner and Susan work together, they find that something is wrong with the world’s robots. A few robots have their own thoughts and they’re trying to get out of humans’ control (控制)! Of course these robots’ dream doesn’t come true. Humans work hard to control their robots again and they succeed at last. 10．The story will happen (发生) in ________. A．2010 B．2020 C．2035 D．2040 11．The phrase “depend on” in this article means ________. A．依靠 B．悬挂 C．相信 D．取决于 12．Spooner is a ________ and Susan is a ________.

Welcome to your future life! You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. You look young. In 2045, many people can live to be about 120 years old. So at the age of 60, people are not old at all. And your parents look the same age as you! You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes (改变) from blue to red.
