It was raining heavily, and Andy was at home by himself. The sound of thunder (雷) was so loud that it felt like someone were fighting in the sky. This scared him a little, so he took out his favorite book, Harry Potter, to read.
Again, there was another terrible sound of thunder. He tried to focus on the book, but the sudden sound of the doorbell stopped him. It couldn’t be his parents. He looked at the wall clock—it was only ten minutes past three. Usually, they got home after six in the afternoon. The doorbell sounded again. “Who’s there?” he shouted. There was no reply and the doorbell sounded again! He remembered his parents telling him not to open the door without checking who it is.
“Maybe it’s someone I don’t know. Should I answer the bell or not?” thought Andy. He decided to be cautious and prepare himself well for the uninvited guest. He went into a room and came out with a baseball bat, which he hid behind the door. He shouted once again, “Who’s at the door?” There was still no reply. No sound of footsteps, either. He was almost sure it couldn’t be any of his neighbors or friends. He held the baseball bat in one hand and guided the door behind it.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry. “Andy! Andy! Why don’t you open the door?” “It’s Dad!” Andy shouted and opened the door.
“Why are you holding a baseball bat?” asked dad. For a moment, the boy seemed unable to speak. Then dad gave him a big smile, perhaps understanding why.
61. Why did Andy read Harry Potter that afternoon?
A. He liked it very much. B. He wanted to be less afraid.
C. He hoped to learn magic. D. He wanted to kill his time.
62 The underlined word “cautious” is the closet in meaning to ________.
A. open B. friendly C. careful D. common
63. How does the story develop?
①Andy heard a sudden sound of the doorbell. ②It was pouring and thundering outside.
③Andy began to read Harry Potter. ④Andy still held the baseball bat.
⑤Andy prepared himself for an uninvited guest. ⑥Andy found out that it was dad.
A. ②③①⑤⑥④ B. ②①⑤③④⑥ C. ①③②⑤⑥④ D. ②③①⑤④⑥
64. What does the writer mainly want us to learn from Andy?
A. He reads a lot and gets good grades. B. He makes good use of the baseball bat.
C. He knows how to keep himself safe. D. He understands how hard-working his parents are.
65. Which can be the best title?
A. Reading Alone at Home B. A Terrible Experience in the Rain

C
Recently, a robot called Mobile Aloha caught eyes of many. With short videos of it cooking at someone’s home, it became a hit on the Internet.
Developed by a team of scientists at Stanford University, the robot can do everything for a dish. In the videos posted, we can see the robot preparing dishes as it is ordered, from cutting up vegetables to cooking eggs. It can also do other different kinds of housework, like watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and washing clothes. It even knows how to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting it into a pillow cover.
Sounds good? Well, another video posted by the team may let you down. In the video, Mobile Aloha carelessly breaks the glasses and plates, runs into a table, and even burns a pot, leaving the kitchen in a mess. The idea of having a robot as a servant may just be wishful thinking.
Scientists have been working on this problem for so long. According to the team, the robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent. In short, ★ .
Mobile Aloha doesn’t have the self-learning ability and it isn’t good at doing housework on its own. Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human “teaching” it. It may easily end up making trouble.
In fact, AI robots can do better in tasks that need higher reasoning ability, such as doing the math and playing chess. When it comes to simpler actions like cleaning, they face difficulties and act worse than a one-year-old child! And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha.
“There is always room for improvement.” The team said.
66. What can Mobile Aloha do in Paragraph 2?
A. Order dishes. B. Plant vegetables. C. Feed pet animals. D. Fill up the pillow.
67. Which of the following can be put in ★ ?
A. it can’t cook at all B. it’s not very useful
C. it may let you down D. it’s far from perfect
68. An AI robot can do best in ________ according to the passage.
A. B. C. D.
69. What can we learn about AI robots from the passage?
A. They have great self-learning ability. B. They face difficulties in reasoning.
C. They need teaching and improving. D. They are no smarter than a little kid.
70. The passage is written to ________.
A. show us how AI robots cook B. tell funny stories about a robot
C. ask more people to learn about robots D. make us know more about AI robots
十、(共10小题,每题1分,满分10分)
综合填空
Water has great importance in Chinese culture. For a long time, water has been given deep meanings to ___71___ (education) people and rule the country. Confucius (孔子) thought water had many nice qualities. People should learn from it and improve ___72___ (they). The meanings behind water also made Chinese rulers follow the rules of nature and listen to the voice of people.
Believed to be the beginning of all life, water also ___73___ (give) us life like a gentle mother. It’s impossible for our human beings to live ___74___ water. However, the way people and water getting along has two sides.

第二部分 笔试部分
二、选择填空 (共 10 小题,每小题 1 分,满分10分)
从 A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳答案。
1. —Hey, can you go bike riding with me this afternoon?
—Sure, I will if the rain ________.
A. will stop B. stops C. stopped D. is stopping
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——嘿,今天下午你能和我一起去骑自行车吗?——当然,如果雨停了我就去。
考查动词时态。根据“if the rain…”及“I will if the rain…”可知,此处是if引导的条件状语从句,遵循主将从现原则,即主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时。所以空格处应用一般现在时stops。故选B。
2. —I’m having trouble with my math homework. What should I do?
—I think it’s a good idea to ask James—________!
A. keep trying alone, you’ll get it finally B. don’t ask for help, it’s not fair
C. two heads are better than one D. give up, math is too hard
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我的数学作业有困难。我该怎么办?——我觉得去问问詹姆斯是一个好主意——三个臭皮匠胜过一个诸葛亮!
考查谚语。keep trying alone, you’ll get it finally继续一个人努力,你最终会明白的;don’t ask for help, it’s not fair不要寻求帮助,这不公平;two heads are better than one三个臭皮匠胜过一个诸葛亮;give up, math is too hard放弃吧,数学太难了。根据“I think it’s a good idea to ask James”可知,此处建议向别人寻求帮助,C项符合。故选C。
3. —Hey, John! How many new books did you buy for your reading list?
—Actually, ________. I forgot to go to the bookstore.
A. no one B. none C. nothing D. neither
【答案】B
【解析】

It was raining heavily, and Andy was at home by himself. The sound of thunder (雷) was so loud that it felt like someone were fighting in the sky. This scared him a little, so he took out his favorite book, Harry Potter, to read.
Again, there was another terrible sound of thunder. He tried to focus on the book, but the sudden sound of the doorbell stopped him. It couldn’t be his parents. He looked at the wall clock—it was only ten minutes past three. Usually, they got home after six in the afternoon. The doorbell sounded again. “Who’s there?” he shouted. There was no reply and the doorbell sounded again! He remembered his parents telling him not to open the door without checking who it is.
“Maybe it’s someone I don’t know. Should I answer the bell or not?” thought Andy. He decided to be cautious and prepare himself well for the uninvited guest. He went into a room and came out with a baseball bat, which he hid behind the door. He shouted once again, “Who’s at the door?” There was still no reply. No sound of footsteps, either. He was almost sure it couldn’t be any of his neighbors or friends. He held the baseball bat in one hand and guided the door behind it.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry. “Andy! Andy! Why don’t you open the door?” “It’s Dad!” Andy shouted and opened the door.

Recently, a robot called Mobile Aloha caught eyes of many. With short videos of it cooking at someone’s home, it became a hit on the Internet.
Developed by a team of scientists at Stanford University, the robot can do everything for a dish. In the videos posted, we can see the robot preparing dishes as it is ordered, from cutting up vegetables to cooking eggs. It can also do other different kinds of housework, like watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and washing clothes. It even knows how to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting it into a pillow cover.
Sounds good? Well, another video posted by the team may let you down. In the video, Mobile Aloha carelessly breaks the glasses and plates, runs into a table, and even burns a pot, leaving the kitchen in a mess. The idea of having a robot as a servant may just be wishful thinking.
Scientists have been working on this problem for so long. According to the team, the robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent. In short, ★ .
Mobile Aloha doesn’t have the self-learning ability and it isn’t good at doing housework on its own. Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human “teaching” it. It may easily end up making trouble.
In fact, AI robots can do better in tasks that need higher reasoning ability, such as doing the math and playing chess. When it comes to simpler actions like cleaning, they face difficulties and act worse than a one-year-old child! And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha.
“There is always room for improvement.” The team said.
66. What can Mobile Aloha do in Paragraph 2?
A. Order dishes. B. Plant vegetables. C. Feed pet animals. D. Fill up the pillow.
67. Which of the following can be put in ★ ?
A. it can’t cook at all B. it’s not very useful
C. it may let you down D. it’s far from perfect
68. An AI robot can do best in ________ according to the passage.
A. B. C. D.
69. What can we learn about AI robots from the passage?
A. They have great self-learning ability. B. They face difficulties in reasoning.
C. They need teaching and improving. D. They are no smarter than a little kid.
70. The passage is written to ________.
A. show us how AI robots cook B. tell funny stories about a robot
C. ask more people to learn about robots D. make us know more about AI robots
【答案】66. D 67. D 68. A 69. C 70. D
【解析】
【导语】本文讲了斯坦福大学研发的烹饪家务机器人Mobile Aloha虽然功能多样但尚不成熟,存在诸多问题,且更适合处理高推理能力任务。
【66题详解】
细节理解题。根据“....after putting it into a pillow cover.”可知,Mobile Aloha会把枕头塞到枕头套里。故选D。
【67题详解】
推理判断题。根据“According to the team, the robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent.”可知,Mobile Aloha做事情的成功率还不能达到100%,也就是说它远非完美。故选D。
【68题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In fact, AI robots can do better in tasks that need higher reasoning ability, such as doing the math and playing chess.”可知,人工智能机器人在处理需要更高推理能力的任务时,如做数学题和下棋,能表现得更好。因此做数学题时它表现最好。故选A。
69题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human ‘teaching’ it.”和“There is always room for improvement.”可知,人工智能机器人没有人类的“教导”就无法很好地工作,并且它们还有很大的改进空间,由此可知它们需要教导和改进。故选C。
【70题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文向我们介绍了烹饪家务机器人Mobile Aloha的相关信息,旨在让我们了解更多关于人工智能机器人的信息。故选D。
