Robots will turn out to be quite smart.In appearance, I think robots may look more like a real human being than a machine.They can not only do all kinds of housework but also can communicate with us in any language we speak.They understand how we are feeling.So they can tell some funny stories to make us laugh if we are sad. 2．Which kind of robots do you want to design? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To promote life quality for the elderly, I want to design a robot for elderly people.The intelligent robot for the elderly can perform various functions.Not only can it keep them company and ease their loneliness by chatting in offspring's absence, but it is also able to provide timely feedback to children, thus ensuring the safety of the old people's life and relieving children's concern.Additionally, equipped with supportive aids, this robot is qualified to deal with emergencies the elderly may encounter and send alerts to relevant departments when necessary. 内化读文技法 抓住故事线索理清脉络 本文选自一部科幻小说，作者按事件发生的先后顺序来组织文字材料。第一部分(Paras.1～2)讲述了拉里说服他的妻子克莱尔接受将要测试的家用机器人托尼。第二部分(Paras.3～8)按事件发生的先后顺序讲述了机器人托尼在各个方面帮助女主人克莱尔。第三部分(Para.9)讲述了经过一段时间的相处之后，机器人托尼不想离开女主人克莱尔。故事的明线是Claire为什么会逐渐喜欢上Tony。故事在高潮处戛然而止，留下悬念，激发学生主动思考并想象故事情节的发展和结局。故事的暗线是机器人实验。阅读时注意理清故事脉络。 (一)赏用词之妙 No.2 美表达/强化写作“基本功” 1．However，when she first saw the robot, she felt alarmed.His name was Tony.He seemed more like a human than a machine. 赏析：作者使用alarmed一词，表达了女主人克莱尔初次见到机器人托尼时内心的惊慌，因为机器人托尼看起来更像一个人而不像一台机器。 2．Claire thought it was ridiculous that she was being offered sympathy by a robot, but she gradually admired his wisdom and integrity and began to trust him. 赏析：作者使用副词gradually修饰动词admired，表达了经过一段时间的相处，克莱尔逐渐钦佩机器人托尼的智慧和正直，并开始信任他。 仿写训练/完成句子 ①The last sunshine ______________________ on the beach, leaving a long and lonely figure in sight. 最后一缕阳光渐渐地把她的影子投射在海滩上，留下一个长长的、孤独的身影。 ②She _____________ at the prospect of travelling alone. 她一想到独自旅行的情景就害怕。 gradually cast her shadow was alarmed (二)赏句式之高 1．He suggested that she invite Gladys and her friends to the house the night before he was to leave and Larry was to return. 赏析：本句中that引导宾语从句，表示建议的具体内容，从句中使用了虚拟语气“(should＋)动词原形”；before引导的是时间状语从句，说明了托尼要离开，拉里要回来。 2．Even though Tony had been in the next room, he managed to catch her in time. 赏析：本句是一个主从复合句。even though引导让步状语从句。本句用让步状语从句，表明托尼虽然在另一个房间，但是他成功接住了她，表明托尼动作的迅捷。 仿写训练/完成句子 ①____________________________ most of my day, I always help my mother with the housework. 尽管学习占用了我一天中的大部分时间，我还总是帮助妈妈做家务。 Even though my studies take up ②Dad suggested that we _________________ the river, which would lead us to the farm house. 爸爸建议我们沿着河走，这能引领我们到达农舍。 (should) walk along (三)赏描摹之韵 1．(心理描写)She felt embarrassed and quickly told him to go.Now she was being looked after by a robot that looked so human, and it was disturbing. 赏析： embarrassed“尴尬的”描写了当托尼问克莱尔是否需要帮忙穿衣时，克莱尔的尴尬之情。disturbing“令人不安的”表明克莱尔由一个看起来像人一样的机器人照料着，这很令她不安。 2．(动作描写)She screamed, pushed him away, and ran to her room. 赏析：本句是由screamed, pushed和ran组成一个动作链，描述了克莱尔惊慌又害羞的心情。 仿写训练/完成句子 ①She felt __________________ she could feel her face burning. 她感到如此尴尬，以至于她能感觉到自己的脸在燃烧。 ②I ___________ my teacher, excitedly ___________________ and _______ him for his help. 我走近我的老师，兴奋地告诉他这个好消息，并感谢了他的帮助。 so embarrassed that approached told him the good news thanked 科幻小说有其独特的魅力，在丰富想象的基础上融入了科学技术的发展和对人类未来的期望，被认为是未来主义的小说。经典的科幻小说和影视作品的结合往往能启发读者以更广阔的视野去思考科技发展与人类命运的关系。 No.3 慧人生/以文化人“增才情” It had taken forty-two years to halt (停止) Earth's rotation, three years longer than the Coalition had planned.My mother told me about the time our family watched the last sunset.The sun sank very slowly, It took three days and three nights to set all the way.Of course, afterward there was no more “day” or “night”．The Eastern hemisphere (半球) was shrouded (覆盖) in perpetual (永恒的) dusk for a long time, maybe a decade or so. The sun lay just below the horizon, and its glow filled half the sky.And during that endless sunset, I was born. Dusk did not mean darkness.The Earth Engines brightly illuminated the whole Northern hemisphere.They had been installed all across Asia and North America — only the solid plate structure of these two continents could withstand the enormous thrust (推力) they exerted (施加)．In total, there were 12,000 engines scattered across the Eurasian and North American plains. horizon n．　　　　　 地平线；眼界 glow n. 光线 illuminate v. 照亮 install v. 安装 滴水穿石　 1．由文积词汇 withstand v. 承受；经受住 scatter v. 分散；散开 massive adj. 巨大的；大量的 blaze v. 发光 2．据文悟句式 句①　as引导方式状语从句。 句②　as if引导的状语从句的省略。 句③　where引导的地点状语从句。 句④　独立主格结构。 句⑤　省略了关系代词that的定语从句。 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A No.4 课时跟踪检测 Must-read New Fiction Books We all have a few tried-and-true fiction favorites, but there's something special about a brand-new, hot-off-the-press novel.Whether it's your favorite author's new release or a new writer's first work, great fiction books make the perfect escape from ordinary life.That's why we've rounded up a list of the best new books released in February.

It was the special effects that made Star Wars stand out from other movies.People still talk about the light swords that could cut，burn and melt through most substances.Spaceships sped through space and landed on huge, realistic-looking space stations. 10 When Star Wars first came out in 1977, most movie theaters were stand-alone buildings, with just one movie screen.Using the money Star Wars had made for them，movie-theater owners built more theaters, leading to the multiplexes (多影厅影院) that are common today. Theaters needed more movies to show on all the additional movie screens and in all the new multiplexes.So new movie companies sprang up, including small ones creating experimental movies. 11 Some of the methods became popular and others failed.But, thanks to Star Wars, people got to see new types of movies. 12 There had been movie continuations previously, but they were often just poor imitations of the first movie.The Star Wars movies were all popular.There have been two trilogies (三部曲) so far, with more planned. A．They tried out new techniques. B．In fact, it was quite old-fashioned. C．Moviegoers had never seen anything like it. D．Thus, audience began to enjoy science fiction movies there. E．Star Wars was the first really successful movie trilogy in history. F．If you are not a fan, you are still likely familiar with these words. G．If you are a movie maker, you may be inspired by this classic film. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了《星球大战》对电影制作的影响。 8．选F　根据上文“如果你是《星球大战》的粉丝，那么你可能已经听过很多次这个短语了”以及下文“电影中的许多角色、装置和短语都广为人知”可知， F项“如果你不是一个粉丝，你仍然可能熟悉这些词。”承上启下，符合语意。 9．选B　根据上文“很久以前，在一个遥远的星系里”以及“它的情节并不是突破性的”可知，这个故事的情节很老旧，与B项“事实上，它是相当老式的。”表达的含义一致。 10．选C　根据上文“人们仍然在谈论可以切割、燃烧和融化大多数物质的光剑。太空船在太空中飞驰，降落在巨大的、看起来逼真的空间站上。”可知，人们谈论的这样的场面不是真实的，是从来没见过，与C项“电影观众从未见过这样的场面。”表达的含义一致。 11．选A　根据下文“其中一些方法变得流行起来，另一些则失败了。但是，多亏了《星球大战》，人们看到了新类型的电影。”可知，电影院尝试了新的技术，与A项“他们尝试了新技术。”表达的含义一致。 12．选E　根据下文“之前也有电影续集，但它们往往只是对第一部电影的拙劣模仿。《星球大战》的电影都很受欢迎。”可知，星球大战是历史上一部成功的电影，与E项“《星球大战》是历史上第一部真正成功的电影三部曲。 ”表达的含义一致。 I have never seen the night.I have never seen the stars.I have never seen spring, fall, or winter.I was born as the Braking Era ended, . ， I could see the bright plasma beams (等离子束) of hundreds of engines.Imagine an enormous palace, as big as the Parthenon on the Acropolis (雅典卫城帕台农神庙)．Inside the palace, countless massive columns rise up to the vaulted (拱形的) ceiling, And you, you are just a germ on the palace's floor.That was the world $$
