(2020·浙江嘉兴一中月考)In the future,when
robots can be used both in homes and in other areas,
they could improve the living standards of people.
Many people consume their energy by doing their
day-to-day tasks like cooking,cleaning after work,
etc.When robots can complete such jobs,people
can spend more time with their families and friends.
Experts say that many major problems in the mod-
ern world are caused by miscommunication.When
people have more time,they can talk freely to solve
such issues and eventually create a happy society.
Robots can be used for certain jobs to avoid ac-
cidents caused by careless behavior of some people.
When robots are used for such work,it does not risk
any human life at the workplace.Human resources
can be efficiently used by performing tasks which
demand human skills like critical thinking and prob-
lem solving.Robots can be used for jobs like moving
and lifting heavy things.
While some people talk about how robots can be
useful to humans,others voice their concerns.
When robots become cheaper to produce,employers
may prefer to use more robots than humans.As the
technology constantly improves the abilities of ro-
bots,it could weaken the value of humans.Many
people may rely on robots heavily.Some may even
develop the habit of using robots for tasks that they
can easily do.This could create a lazy society.
As an ageing society,Japan sees it as a must to
build robots that can take care of elderly people at
their homes,because without them,the nation's
health care system can't cope.There will simply be
too many elderly people to care for as the nation
faces a decreasing birth rate,an ageing population,
and the loosening of family ties.However,many of
Japan's elderly people would prefer human helpers
rather than robots.Above all,Japan needs to make
its dream of domestic robots come true because its
immigration policy is anti-immigration.

A.Japan will try to develop domestic robots.
B.The robots are well received by elderly people

(2020·河南林州一中5月调研考试)A compa-
ny in California,called Zume,is testing machines
that make pizza.The robot takes and shapes dough
to create the base of the pizza.It then adds tomato
sauce,cheese,meat or other toppings.Next,the
robot places the uncooked pizza into a hot oven.A
few minutes later,the pizza is ready.The pizza
comes out the same each time.Zume says the robots
work quickly and do not get sick.They do not get
paid either.
Julia Collins is the company's co-founder and
chief executive officer (CEO).Her business can
spend more money on better food products because it
does not have to pay the robots.Zume is using ro-
bots to make pizza.
Charity Suzuki has bought the robot-made piz-
za.She likes its taste."It's delicious.It's always hot
and fresh when it comes.I mean it's great that
they're making it,but I can't tell the difference that
it's made by a robot versus a human.
Other companies say they are developing robots
so people can get higher quality food faster.But
what about the jobs the robots are taking from hu-
mans?
Ken Goldberg is a professor at the University of
California in Berkeley.He also directs the school's
automation laboratory.Goldberg says researchers
have been working with robots for 50 years.He says
that,while there has been progress,the jobs are not
going to disappear right away."I want to reassure
(使放心)restaurant workers that the skills that they
have are still going to be of value,"Goldberg says.
"We're going to get rid of boring,repetitive,
dangerous jobs and we're going to free up people to

do things that have higher value.There's going to
be amazing new ways of working that don't exist yet
but are going to be created,"Alex Garden,the
chairman of Zume,says.
[语篇解读]加利福尼亚的Zume公司正在检验可
以制作比萨的机器人。这种机器人工作效率高,且不
需要薪水。它们做出的比萨和人做的比萨没有什么
差别。
5.Why can Zume devote more money to better food
products?
A.It earns a lot by selling pizza.
B.It wants to create more robots.
C.It can save a lot by using robots.
D.It hopes to attract more customers.
解析:C[由第二段中的“Her business can spend
more money on better food products because it
does not have to pay the robots'”可知,因为不用给
机器人付工资,所以Zume可以把更多的资金投入
到更好的食物产品上。]
6.What can we know about the robot-made pizza ac-
cording to Suzuki?
A.It really agrees with her.
B.It isn't hot or fresh all the time.
C.It is tastier than the man-made pizza.
D.It is delicious and free of charge.
解析:A[由第三段中的“She likes its taste..‘It's
delicious.It's always hot and fresh when it
comes.I mean it's great that they're making it,
but I can't tell the difference that it's made by a
robot versus a human..’”可知,Suzuki认为机器人
生产的比萨很美味,很对她的胃口,她分辨不出人
做的比萨和机器人做的比萨的区别。]
7.What's the benefit of using robots to make pizza?
A.They work efficiently.
B.They help sick people.
C.They need few payments.
D.They produce better pizza.
解析:A[由第一段中的“Zume says the robots
work quickly'”和第四段中的“Other companies say
they are developing robots so people can get high-
er quality food faster'”可知,机器人的工作效率很
高,故A项正确。]
8.What does Goldberg think of the jobs of restau-
rant workers?
A.Interesting.
B.Boring.
C.Dangerous.
D.Necessary.
解析:D[由倒数第二段中的“】want to reassure
(使放心)restaurant workers that the skills that
they have are still going to be of value”可知,
Goldberg认为餐馆工作人员的技能仍然有价值,
故可推知他认为他们的工作是不可缺少的。故D
项正确。]

Ⅱ.阅读填句
The ability to think creatively is not a gift eve-
ryone possesses naturally,but it can be developed as
a skill.Here are some tips to help you develop crea-
tive and critical thinking abilities.
Step outside your comfort zone.
Stepping outside your comfort zone is an easy
way to expand your creative and critical thinking
skills.This means reading a book or an article that is
completely unrelated to any previous studies,or even
having a difficult conversation with someone you're
close to.1 We all grow from discomfort.
Stay healthy.
Your mind is in the best shape when your body
is.Coupling exercise with a healthy diet can clear
the mind and allow for creativity.2 Some peo-
ple are easily distracted by a messy office or a dark
room.Most people are the most awake when they
are in clean,healthy,and organised environments.
3
This is a common technique used by journalists
and writers suffering from writer's block.It's an
easy tool to get the creative juices flowing.Open up
a laptop,or grab a notebook and a pen,and just
start writing.Just let your mind take you wherever
it wants to go.4
Take a breather.
Everyone may reach points where they get stuck
on an idea and can't get past it.Don't let this dis-
courage you,and don't blame yourself.That sort of
thinking will make you disheartened and distracted,which
will only make you even more frustrated.5 Go out-
side for some fresh air,take a walk,eat a meal,or
call a friend.Distraction,in moderation,can be ver-
y rewarding.
A.Write freely.
B.Keep an open mind.
C.Instead,take a short break.
D.Keep your spirits high at work and even during
the holidays.
E.This is a great way to explore your thoughts and
expand your creativity.
F.Your work environment can also greatly affect the
way the brain functions.
G.Anything making you a bit uncomfortable proba-
bly benefits you more than it harms you.
