C
Spring is here and it is time to enjoy West Lake Longjing tea. Usually, we think of workers picking tea leaves by hand. But now, some metal (金属) workers are picking Longjing tea—they are tea-picking robots!
In a Hangzhou tea garden a smart tea-picking robot developed by Zhejiang Sci-Tech University set to work for the first time. “We took thousands of pictures of new tea buds (芽) and make the robot learn them carefully. The robot uses an AI model (模型) to find the buds that it needs to pick,” said Professor Chen Jianneng, Party branch secretary (党支部书记) of the research team. This lets the robot find the right tea buds about 90 percent of the time.
The tea-picking robot’s arm pulls and then sucks (吸) up the tea buds. These buds are quickly moved into a special box. After the robot gathers (聚集) all the buds from the area (区域) it’s working at, it moves the buds from the box to a main box that holds everything it collects.
The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea. In Zhejiang, about 400, 000 more pickers are needed now. “Picking is the biggest challenge (挑战) for the development of the tea industry,” said Professor Wu Chuanyu, who leads the research team.
“Tea-picking robots are a trend (趋势) of the future,” said Wu. “About five years from now, the robots will do the job of picking Longjing tea instead of people”, Wu added.
26. According to Para. 2, how can the robot find the right tea buds?
A. By using an AI model. B. By taking pictures of tea buds.
C. By making an AI model. D. By learning pictures of tea buds.
27. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Where the robot works. B. How the robot works.
C. How the robot is made. D. Why the box is special.
28. According to Para. 4, why do people use robots to pick tea?
A. Using robots costs less money. B. The tea industry doesn’t need people.
C. There are not enough tea pickers. D. Robots do much better in picking tea.
29. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?
→paragraph 1, →paragraph 2, …
A. B. C. D.
30. What will happen to West Lake Longjing tea according to Wu?
A. Robots might do the job of making tea soon.
B. There will be few people drink Longjing tea.
C. Robots can help taste the tea in the near future.
D. There may be few human pickers in five years.
【答案】26. A 27. B 28. C 29. D 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了智能采茶机器人的情况。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The robot uses an AI model (模型) to find the buds that it needs to pick”可知,机器人使用人工智能模型来识别它需要采摘的芽。故选A。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段内容可知,本段主要介绍机器人是如何工作的,故选B。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea.”可知,因为没有足够的人采茶,所以制造了这个机器人。故选C。
【29题详解】
篇章结构题。分析文章内容可知,第一段引出智能采茶机器人;第二、三、四段介绍智能采茶机器人如何采茶、制造的原因;第五段介绍智能采茶机器人未来的发展。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Tea-picking robots are a trend (趋势) of the future”和“About five years from now, the robots will do the job of picking Longjing tea instead of people”可知,他认为采茶机器人是未来的一种趋势,大约五年后,机器人将代替人去采摘西湖龙井茶。所以五年后可能很少有人类采茶了,故选D。

Please mind your shoes!
Crocs, a type of shoe, have become popular among young people in China. You can see these “special” shoes almost everywhere in the street.
Crocs are very comfortable They are easy to put on. And you don’t need to find clothes to match with them. These shoes go with anything. Crocs come in different colors and styles. You can put all kinds of decorations (饰品) on the shoes. It has become a way to show lifestyles. Maybe they are the reasons why Crocs are so popular.

So when you wear Crocs on escalators, be careful and always stand in the middle of the steps.

Spring is here, and it is time to enjoy West Lake Longjing tea. Usually, we think of workers picking tea leaves by hand. But now, some metal (金属) workers are picking Longjing tea—they are tea-picking robots!
In a Hangzhou tea garden, a smart tea-picking robot developed by Zhejiang Sci-Tech University set to work for the first time. “We took thousands of pictures of new tea buds (芽) and make the robot learn them carefully. The robot uses an AI model (模型) to find the buds that it needs to pick,” said Professor Chen Jianneng, Party branch secretary (党支部书记) of the research team. This lets the robot find the right tea buds about 90 percent of the time.
The tea-picking robot’s arm pulls and then sucks (吸) up the tea buds. These buds are quickly moved into a special box. After the robot gathers (聚集) all the buds from the area (区域) it’s working at, it moves the buds from the box to a main box that holds everything it collects.
The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea. In Zhejiang, about 400, 000 more pickers are needed now. “Picking is the biggest challenge (挑战) for the development of the tea industry,” said Professor Wu Chuanyu, who leads the research team.
“Tea-picking robots are a trend (趋势) of the future,” said Wu. “About five years from now, the robots will do the job of picking Longjing tea instead of people”, Wu added.
26. According to Para. 2 how can the robot find the right tea buds?
A. By using an AI model. B. By taking pictures of tea buds.
C. By making an AI model. D. By learning pictures of tea buds.
27. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Where the robot works. B. How the robot works.
C. How the robot is made. D. Why the box is special.
28. According to Para. 4, why do people use robots to pick tea?
A. Using robots costs less money. B. The tea industry doesn’t need people.
C. There are not enough tea pickers. D. Robots do much better in picking tea.
29. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?
→paragraph 1, →paragraph 2, …
A. B. C. D.
30. What will happen to West Lake Longjing tea according to Wu?
A. Robots might do the job of making tea soon.
B There will be few people drink Longjing tea.
C. Robots can help taste the tea in the near future.
D. There may be few human pickers in five years.

Please mind your shoes!
Crocs, a type of shoe, have become popular among young people in China. You can see these “special” shoes almost everywhere in the street.
Crocs are very comfortable. They are easy to put on. And you don’t need to find clothes to match with them. These shoes go with anything. Crocs come in different colors and styles. You can put all kinds of decorations (饰品) on the shoes. It has become a way to show lifestyles. Maybe they are the reasons why Crocs are so popular.
However, some people believe that Crocs can be dangerous. Soft shoes make people feel comfortable when they are just put on, but they can cause problems. Crocs are not good at helping people keep balance (平衡). So it’s fine to wear Crocs sometimes. When you do sports like running, long walks, or hiking, you’d better not wear Crocs. Besides, wearing Crocs on escalators (自动扶梯) may be dangerous because they may get caught in the escalators. So when you wear Crocs on escalators, be careful and always stand in the middle of the steps.
