A team of researchers have developed an artificial skin for a robot, which can help it to feel the difference between objects and living sea creatures. The robot could be used to pick litter from the ocean or for underwater exploration.
The skin’s sense of touch is caused by something called “magnetoelastic effect” (磁弹效应). It was thought that magnetoelastic effect only happened in rigid metals. However, researchers from the University of California, US recently discovered it also happened in polymers–soft, skin-like plastic materials. Using their discovery, the team designed an artificial skin from polymers that could detect magnetic changes. The skin was attached to a robot arm, which was trained to pick up a number of objects. These included samples of rubbish, like bottle caps or plastic cups, and ocean creatures such as starfish and shellfish like scallops or sea snails.
The researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to train the robot arm to learn the different magneticsignals caused by the different objects. AI is the name given to a computer system that can learn and “think” for itself. Once trained, the arm could correctly identify 95% of the objects it picked up as either living things or objects.
Experts think the new technology could be used to do underwater jobs that include grabbing objects. By giving the job to a robot, it could save companies time and money.
68. What is the “magnetoelastic effect” mentioned in the second paragraph?
A. A phenomenon only observed in rigid metals.
B. A property of polymers that allows them to detect magnetic changes.
C. A way to create artificial intelligence.
D. A method to attach skin to robot arms.
69. Which of the following was not used as a sample during the training process?
A. plastic cups B. bottle caps C. starfish D. fishing nets
70. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
A. robot B. magnetoelastic effect C. rigid metal D. artificial skin
71. How did the researchers train the robot arm to identify objects?
A. By manually teaching it.
B. By using artificial intelligence.
C. By programming it with specific instructions.
D. By attaching sensors to its fingers.
72. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the robot with the artificial skin?
A. It can be used for underwater tasks.
B. It can save companies time and energy.
C. It can identify 95% of the objects by it picked up.
D. It can work without human’s help.
【答案】68. B 69. D 70. B 71. B 72. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了研究人员为水下机器人开发出一种人造皮肤,这种皮肤可以帮助水下机器人感知物体和海洋生物之间的差异。该项技术可以应用于海洋垃圾清理和水下探索工作。

细节理解题。根据文中第二段中“The skin was attached to a robot arm, which was trained to pick up a number of objects. These included samples of rubbish, like bottle caps or plastic cups, and ocean creatures such as starfish and shellfish like scallops or sea snails.”可知,在训练过程中,渔网没有被用作样本。故选D。
【70题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文中第二段中“The skin’s sense of touch is caused by something called “magnetoelastic effect”. It was thought that magnetoelastic effect only happened in rigid metals. However, researchers from the University of California, US recently discovered it also happened in polymers–soft, skin-like plastic materials.”可知,此处指的是皮肤的触觉是由一种叫做“磁弹性效应”的东西引起的,且不仅仅只发生在刚性金属中,这种现象也发生在聚合物中。其中“it”指的是“磁弹性效应”。选项B“磁弹效应”符合题意。故选B。
【71题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中第三段中“The researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to train the robot arm to learn the different magneticsignals caused by the different objects.”可知,研究人员通过使用人工智能来训练机械臂识别物体。故选B。
【72题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中“The researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to train the robot arm to learn the different magneticsignals caused by the different objects.”;“Once trained, the arm could correctly identify 95% of the objects it picked up as either living things or objects.”及“Experts think the new technology could be used to do underwater jobs that include grabbing objects. By giving the job to a robot, it could save companies time and money.”可知,人造皮肤需要经过人为训练才能更好的投入工作。选项D“它可以在没有人类帮助的情况下工作。”观点不正确。故选D。

A team of researchers have developed an artificial skin for a robot, which can help it to feel the difference between objects and living sea creatures. The robot could be used to pick litter from the ocean or for underwater exploration.
The skin’s sense of touch is caused by something called “magnetoelastic effect” (磁弹效应). It was thought that magnetoelastic effect only happened in rigid metals. However, researchers from the University of California, US recently discovered it also happened in polymers–soft, skin-like plastic materials. Using their discovery, the team designed an artificial skin from polymers that could detect magnetic changes. The skin was attached to a robot arm, which was trained to pick up a number of objects. These included samples of rubbish, like bottle caps or plastic cups, and ocean creatures such as starfish and shellfish like scallops or sea snails.
The researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to train the robot arm to learn the different magneticsignals caused by the different objects. AI is the name given to a computer system that can learn and “think” for itself. Once trained, the arm could correctly identify 95% of the objects it picked up as either living things or objects.
Experts think the new technology could be used to do underwater jobs that include grabbing objects. By giving the job to a robot, it could save companies time and money.
68. What is the “magnetoelastic effect” mentioned in the second paragraph?
A. A phenomenon only observed in rigid metals.
B. A property of polymers that allows them to detect magnetic changes.
C. A way to create artificial intelligence.
D. A method to attach skin to robot arms.
69 Which of the following was not used as a sample during the training process?
A. plastic cups B. bottle caps C. starfish D. fishing nets
70. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
A. robot B. magnetoelastic effect C. rigid metal D. artificial skin
71. How did the researchers train the robot arm to identify objects?
A. By manually teaching it.
B. By using artificial intelligence.
C. By programming it with specific instructions.
D. By attaching sensors to its fingers.
72. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the robot with the artificial skin?
A. It can be used for underwater tasks.
B. It can save companies time and energy.
C. It can identify 95% of the objects by it picked up.
D. It can work without human’s help.
