Here is an example. “Mom, have you worked out next week’s chores? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can’t wait. It’s fun!” When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help Mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom and many others.” Jim and Robert each chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim liked to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loved to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards. To help the children do chores, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the chores at weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free. 51.

One day, the King walked through the hallway of the palace and saw a portrait (肖像) of his ancestors (祖先). He thought that one day his children would like to remember him through these paintings. But the King did not draw his painting because he was disabled. He did not know what his painting would be like. So, he invited many famous painters from other kingdoms to the court. The King then announced that he wanted to put a beautiful painting of himself in the palace. Any painter who can do this will be rewarded (奖赏). How can his paintings be beautiful? This is impossible, and the picture does not look beautiful, the King will be angry and punish (惩罚) the painters. So one by one, everyone began to make excuses (借口) and politely refused (拒绝) to draw a picture for the King. Suddenly a painter raised his hand and said, “I’m going to draw a very beautiful picture for you.” The King became happy hearing that and gave him permission. Finally, he said that the painting was ready. When the painter showed the painting, everyone, including the King, was shocked. He made a painting in which the King was sitting on the horse, on the one-leg side, holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (剑) with his one eye closed. The King was very pleased to see that the painter had made a beautiful painting by cleverly hiding the King’s disabilities. The King gave him a great reward. 56.

The King gave him a great reward.”可知，国王很满意这幅画，所以A项符合。故选A。 【59题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“The King was very pleased to see that the painter had made a beautiful painting by cleverly hiding the King’s disabilities.”并通读全文可知，文章通过讲述画家们给国王画画的故事来告诉我们，要看到别人的优点，不要只看到他们的缺点。故选D。 【60题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主要是围绕给国王画像展开的，B项“国王的画”为最佳标题。故选B。 D Robots may seem smart, but they cannot even pick up a chess piece. “Robots are klutzy,” said US AI engineer Ken Goldberg. Robot scientist say that one-year-old human babies have better movement skills than robots do. Picking things up is not easy. If we drop our pencil on the floor our brains (大脑) work hard. First, we must find the pencil and look at its distance (距离).Then we move our hands to it. A robot cannot always move its “hand” to the right place. Then, when we touch the pencil, it might roll (滚动) a little bit. Robots cannot easily understand this, either. So, if you drop a pencil on the floor, a robot will probably roll it around the room. If someone drops you in a strange building, you might feel a bit lost. But you can look around, find a door and get out quickly. You will not get stuck (困住的) in a corner. But a robot will look everywhere for a door, even on ceilings (天花板) and floors. This is because it’s hard for them to understand spaces, such as walls or ceilings. Scientist need to train them with lots of data to learn this. Because of common sense (常识), we pick up a coffee cup by its handle (把手). We feel whether it has coffee inside, and whether it is not. A robot? It may turn the cup upside down. It may hold the hot part of the cup, damaging (毁坏) itself. Scientists have tried teaching robots common sense rules. But even huge databases don’t help much. Although the robot may be slow and clumsy, it might be able to save lives and do dangerous jobs. However, they still need more time to learn. 61. What’s the meaning of the underlined the word “klutzy”? A. 灵活的 B. 聪明的 C. 笨拙的 D. 有能力的 62. What might happen when a robot tries to pick up a pencil? A. Its brain might stop working. B. It might not find the pencil. C. It might stop to watch the pencil roll. D. It might roll the pencil around the room. 63. Why might a robot hold the hot part of a cup? A. Because it doesn’t have common sense. B. Because it cannot find the handle. C. Because it doesn’t want to break it. D. Because it is strong enough. 64. What can we learn from the story? A. Robots are not helpful at all. B. Robots are good at training themselves. C Robots don’t follow human orders. D. Robots have difficulty understanding our world. 65. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? (①=Para. (自然段)1；②=Para.2；③=Para. 3；④=Para. 4；⑤=Para. 5) A. B. C. D. 【答案】61. C 62. D 63. A 64. D 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了机器人在很多方面不如人类，如它们不能准确地用“手”捡起东西，对空间不太理解甚至缺乏常识。 【61题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“they cannot even pick up a chess piece”可知，机器人连一个棋子都拿不起来，所以应该是笨拙的，所以划线部分的含义是“笨拙的”。故选C。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So, if you drop a pencil on the floor, a robot will probably roll it around the room.”可知，机器人可能会把铅笔在房间里滚来滚去。故选D。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It may hold the hot part of the cup, damaging (毁坏) itself. Scientists have tried teaching robots common sense rules.”可知，机器人缺乏常识，所以才会握住杯子的热的部分。故选A。 【64题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This is because it’s hard for them to understand spaces”以及第四段中的“Because of common sense”可知，机器人对空间不太理解甚至缺乏常识，可推知，机器人很难理解我们的世界。故选D。 【65题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段阐释机器人很笨拙；第二段到第四段举例说明；最后一段总结全文；所以C项符合。故选C。 六. 口语运用。(每小题 1 分，共 5 分） 阅读下面对话，从文后7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话。 A: I had a wonderful night yesterday! Lingling and I went to Lao She Teahouse last night. B: ___66___ A: It was great! You know, I wanted to see Beijing Opera, so she took me there. ___67___ B: Did you understand the opera?

But in Australia, Jim and Robert’s mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework. Here is an example. “Mom, have you worked out next week’s chores? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can’t wait. It’s fun!” When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help Mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom and many others.” Jim and Robert each chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim liked to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loved to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards. To help the children do chores, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the chores at weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free. 51 From the passage we know that most children like ________.

The King there had only one leg and one eye, but he was very smart and kind. Everyone in his kingdom lived a happy and healthy life. One day, the King walked through the hallway of the palace and saw a portrait (肖像) of his ancestors (祖先). He thought that one day his children would like to remember him through these paintings. But the King did not draw his painting because he was disabled. He did not know what his painting would be like. So, he invited many famous painters from other kingdoms to the court. The King then announced that he wanted to put a beautiful painting of himself in the palace. Any painter who can do this will be rewarded (奖赏). How can his paintings be beautiful? This is impossible, and the picture does not look beautiful, the King will be angry and punish (惩罚) the painters. So one by one, everyone began to make excuses (借口) and politely refused (拒绝) to draw a picture for the King. Suddenly a painter raised his hand and said, “I’m going to draw a very beautiful picture for you.” The King became happy hearing that and gave him permission. Finally, he said that the painting was ready. When the painter showed the painting, everyone, including the King, was shocked. He made a painting in which the King was sitting on the horse, on the one-leg side, holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (剑) with his one eye closed. The King was very pleased to see that the painter had made a beautiful painting by cleverly hiding the King’s disabilities. The King gave him a great reward. 56.

What is the best title of the passage? A. A Clever King B. The King’s Painting C. A Dangerous Job D. A King and His Arrow D Robots may seem smart, but they cannot even pick up a chess piece. “Robots are klutzy,” said US AI engineer Ken Goldberg. Robot scientist say that one-year-old human babies have better movement skills than robots do. Picking things up is not easy. If we drop our pencil on the floor, our brains (大脑) work hard. First, we must find the pencil and look at its distance (距离).Then we move our hands to it. A robot cannot always move its “hand” to the right place. Then, when we touch the pencil, it might roll (滚动) a little bit. Robots cannot easily understand this, either. So, if you drop a pencil on the floor, a robot will probably roll it around the room. If someone drops you in a strange building, you might feel a bit lost. But you can look around, find a door and get out quickly. You will not get stuck (困住的) in a corner. But a robot will look everywhere for a door, even on ceilings (天花板) and floors. This is because it’s hard for them to understand spaces, such as walls or ceilings. Scientist need to train them with lots of data to learn this. Because of common sense (常识), we pick up a coffee cup by its handle (把手). We feel whether it has coffee inside, and whether it is not. A robot? It may turn the cup upside down. It may hold the hot part of the cup, damaging (毁坏) itself. Scientists have tried teaching robots common sense rules. But even huge databases don’t help much. Although the robot may be slow and clumsy, it might be able to save lives and do dangerous jobs. However, they still need more time to learn. 61. What’s the meaning of the underlined the word “klutzy”? A. 灵活的 B. 聪明的 C. 笨拙的 D. 有能力的 62. What might happen when a robot tries to pick up a pencil? A. Its brain might stop working. B. It might not find the pencil. C. It might stop to watch the pencil roll. D. It might roll the pencil around the room. 63. Why might a robot hold the hot part of a cup? A. Because it doesn’t have common sense. B. Because it cannot find the handle. C. Because it doesn’t want to break it. D. Because it is strong enough. 64. What can we learn from the story? A. Robots are not helpful at all. B. Robots are good at training themselves. C. Robots don’t follow human orders. D. Robots have difficulty understanding our world. 65 Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? (①=Para. (自然段)1；②=Para.2；③=Para. 3；④=Para. 4；⑤=Para. 5) A. B. C.
