This sounds like an idea from a movie, but it could be 12 one day. So, 13 is a tree made to glow? The secret comes from 14 . Some animals, like jellyfish in the ocean, can 15 their own light. They have a special part, called a gene (基因), that makes them glow. Scientists can take this glowing gene. Then, with special methods, the gene is put into a young tree or its seed. 16 the tree grows up, it starts to use this new gene. 17 , its leaves and branches begin to glow softly. This invention could bring many good 18 . It would save a lot of energy and help keep our air clean. Our cities would become more beautiful and better for the environment.

It would save a lot of energy and help keep our air clean. Our cities would become more beautiful and better for the environment.”可知，后文列举节能、环保、观星等益处，均属变化，这项发明可能带来许多好的变化，changes“变化”。故选C。 19．句意：有了更少的人造光，我们夜晚甚至能看到更多星星。 more更多；less更少；some一些；much许多。根据“With...man-made light, we might even see more stars at night.”可知，发光树替代电灯，减少人造光，有了更少的人造光，我们夜晚甚至能看到更多星星，故用“less”（更少的）。故选B。 20．句意：发光树尚未在任何地方投入使用，但他们向我们展示了一个充满希望的未来，新技术可以与自然和谐共处。 anything任何事物；everything一切事物；anywhere任何地方；everywhere到处。根据“Glowing trees are not used...yet, but they show us a hopeful future where new technology can work together with nature.”可知，发光树尚未在任何地方投入使用，但他们向我们展示了一个充满希望的未来，新技术可以与自然和谐共处，否定句中用“anywhere”（任何地方）表地点。故选C。   三、阅读理解(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 阅读下列短文,从题后所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。 A New AI Robot Last month, I bought an AI robot from a high-tech store. It was supposed to be a smart helper that could do my homework, clean my room, and even chat with me. However, things didn’t go as planned.      At first, the robot worked well. It could answer my questions quickly and help me with my math problems. But after a week, it started to make mistakes. It would mix up my homework answers and sometimes even refuse to follow my orders. The worst thing was that its battery only lasted for two hours, which was nothing like the 24 hours promised in the ad.     I was very angry and decided to write a complaint letter to the store. The manager replied immediately and apologized. They offered to send me a new, upgraded model or give me a full refund. I chose the new model, and this time, the robot worked perfectly. It could even help me with my English speaking practice. 21．What was the robot supposed to do for the writer? A．Do his homework, clean his room, and chat with him. B．Only help him with his math problems. C．Just answer his questions quickly. D．Play games with him. 22．What problem did the robot have after a week? A．It could not turn on at all. B．It started to make mistakes and its battery life was short. C．It could only speak English. D．It was too heavy to carry. 23．What did the store manager offer to do? A．Only give a full refund. B．Only send a new, upgraded model. C．Either send a new model or give a full refund. D．Do nothing and ask the writer to fix it himself. 24．What did the writer choose in the end? A．He chose to get a full refund. B．He chose the new, upgraded model. C．He chose to fix the old robot himself. D．He chose to buy another robot from a different store. 25．What is the best title for this passage? A．A Perfect AI Robot B．My Experience with an AI Robot C．How to Choose a Good Robot D．The Future of AI Robots 【答案】21．A 22．B 23．C 24．B 25．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者购买了一款AI机器人，原本期望它能帮忙做作业、打扫房间和聊天，但使用一周后机器人出现故障，作者投诉后获得更换新升级型号或全额退款的选择，最终作者选择了新升级型号，新机器人完美运行的故事。 21．第一段明确提到：“It was supposed to be a smart helper that could do my homework, clean my room, and even chat with me”，这直接说明机器人本应能为作者做作业、打扫房间和聊天。 22．第二段指出：“But after a week, it started to make mistakes. It would mix up my homework answers and sometimes even refuse to follow my orders. The worst thing was that its battery only lasted for two hours”，这直接说明一周后机器人开始出错且电池续航短。 23．第三段提到：“They offered to send me a new, upgraded model or give me a full refund”，这直接说明商店经理提出要么送新升级型号，要么全额退款。 24．第三段表明：“I chose the new model, and this time, the robot worked perfectly”，这直接说明作者最终选择了新升级型号。 25．文章围绕作者购买AI机器人的经历展开，从购买期望到使用出现问题，再到投诉解决，B选项“My Experience with an AI Robot”能很好地概括文章内容，而A选项只强调了完美机器人，不符合文章有问题的过程；C选项“如何选择好机器人”文章未重点涉及；D选项“AI机器人的未来”文章也未着重探讨。所以最佳标题是B。 四、语法填空(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分) 阅读下列短文,在空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式,并将答案写在对应处。 Guide dogs are important to blind people. However, not everyone is lucky enough to have 26 life helper. There are about 20 million blind people in our country, 27 there are just over 400 guide dogs. A blind person has to wait 28 a long time to get a guide dog. Also, it is very expensive to train a guide dog. So not all the blind people have 29 (they) own guide dogs. Last year a team from Shanghai Jiao Tong University 30 (build) a robot guide dog to help blind people. The robot dog has six legs and is very smart. It can see, listen and speak. Now the blind people can get a guide dog 31 (easy) than before. Some people think it might be 32 (danger) for the blind to use the robot guide dog. The head of the team believes there is no need to worry about it for the following 33 (reason). First, with six legs, the robot dog can walk smoothly. Second, users can ask the robot 34 (walk) slowly or quickly. What’s more, the robot can read traffic lights and avoid obstacles (规避障碍). The team believes 35 the blind have robot guide dogs, they will live a better life in the future. 【答案】 26．a 27．but 28．for 29．their 30．built 31．more easily 32．dangerous 33．reasons 34．to walk 35．if 【导语】本文主要介绍了导盲犬对盲人的重要性，同时指出我国盲人数量多但导盲犬数量极少、训练成本高的现状。随后讲述上海交通大学的团队研发出了六足机器人导盲犬，这种智能设备能解决传统导盲犬的短缺问题，还说明了机器人导盲犬的安全性和优势，展望它能让盲人未来的生活变得更好。 26．句意：然而，并不是每个人都足够幸运，能拥有一个生活帮手。根据“not everyone is lucky enough to have...life helper.”可知，此处需要不定冠词修饰可数名词单数helper；life发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a，表泛指“一个生活帮手”。故填a。 27．句意：我国约有2000万盲人，但是导盲犬仅有400多只。根据“There are about 20 million blind people in our country...there are just over 400 guide dogs.”可知，前半句“我国约有2000万盲人”，后半句“导盲犬仅有400多只”，前后是转折关系，用连词but。故填but。 28．句意：盲人需要等待很长时间才能得到一只导盲犬。根据“A blind person has to wait...a long time to get a guide dog.”可知，wait for表示“等待”，wait for a long time“等待很长时间”。故填for。 29．句意：所以并不是所有盲人都有他们自己的导盲犬。根据“So not all the blind people have...own guide dogs.”可知，形容词性物主代词修饰名词短语own guide dogs；they的形容词性物主代词是their。故填their。 30．句意：去年，上海交通大学的一个团队研发了一款机器人导盲犬来帮助盲人。根据“Last year”可知，Last year是一般过去时的标志，动词build的过去式是built。故填built。 31．句意：现在，盲人可以比以前更容易地获得导盲犬了。根据“than before”可知，副词修饰动词get；easy的副词形式是easily，结合than before可知用比较级more easily。故填more easily。 32．句意：有些人认为，盲人使用机器人导盲犬可能是危险的。根据“Some people think it might be...for the blind to use the robot guide dog.”可知，it is+形容词+for sb. to do sth.表示“对某人来说做某事是……的”；danger的形容词形式是dangerous。故填dangerous。 33．句意：该团队的负责人认为，基于以下原因，没有必要对此感到担忧。根据“The head of the team believes there is no need to worry about it for the following...”可知，后文列举了三条原因，following后接可数名词复数；reason的复数形式是reasons。故填reasons。 34．句意：其次，使用者可以要求机器人慢走或快走。ask sb./sth. to do sth.表示“要求某人/某物做某事”，不定式作宾语补足语。故填to walk。 35．句意：该团队认为，如果盲人拥有了机器人导盲犬，他们未来会过上更好的生活。根据“The team believes...the blind have robot guide dogs, they will live a better life in the future.”可知，此处是对未来的设想，if表示“如果”。故填if。 五、 读下面一段对话,从方框中所给的 A、B、C、D、E、F和 G 七个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分) A: What are you doing, Lin?

E．Why are you so sure about that? F．The robot can save us a lot of time. G．We have to help around the house every day. 【答案】36．A 37．D 38．E 39．B 40．C 【导语】本文是A和B关于家务和未来机器人帮助做家务的对话。B在做家务时感到厌倦，A表示同感，随后两人讨论了机器人做家务的梦想，A分享了他了解的Astribot S1机器人的功能。 36．A说“What are you doing, Lin?” B回答在做家务并表达厌倦。A的回应应先表示同感，再补充评价“It’s pretty boring.”。选项A“Me, too.”直接表明A也有同感，使对话自然衔接。 37．B表达希望机器人帮忙做家务后，需要询问A对此的看法，以便A给出肯定回答。选项D“Can my dream come true?”正是B的疑问，A用“Of course!”直接回应，逻辑连贯。 38．A肯定梦想能成真后，B追问原因，A才引出关于Astribot S1的信息。选项E“Why are you so sure about that?”恰好是询问原因，与A的回答“Because...”紧密相连。 39．B听到Astribot S1这个新名词，自然想知道它是什么。选项B“What is it?”正是询问名称所指，A随后解释它是一个机器人，符合问答逻辑。 40．B得知Astribot S1是机器人后，进一步好奇它的功能。选项C“What can it do?”直接询问能力，A列举了它能做的家务，对话推进合理。 六、书面表达(20分) 41．亲爱的同学们，假如你是一名机器人发明家，你会设计具有什么特殊功能的机器人呢？又会让它来解决人们日常生活中的什么难题呢？请设计你梦想中的机器人，并参考以下问题进行描述： 1.它有哪些特殊功能（至少两个）？2.这些功能能如何帮助人们？3.你如何评价它？ 参考表达方式：1. It will...        2. It can...            3. I think it is... because... （50词左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数） My Dream Robot ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 My Dream Robot My dream robot is a home helper. It will clean the house by itself. It can also chat with people and play simple games. These functions can save people time and help them feel less lonely. I think it is very helpful because it makes life easier and happier. 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态主要为“一般现在时”和“一般将来时”； ③提示：根据题干问题提示，从它的功能、如何帮助他人以及对它的评价三个角度介绍。 [写作步骤] 第一步，开门见山，引出梦想中的机器人； 第二步，介绍机器人的特殊功能以及如何帮助人们； 第三步，评价这个机器人。 [亮点词汇] ①clean the house打扫房子 ②chat with sb与某人聊天 [高分句型] ①I think it is very helpful because it makes life easier and happier.（省略that的宾语从句；because引导的原因状语从句） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 ( 1 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 编写说明：本套试卷紧扣《英语 基础模块2》（高教版第三版）教材，以教材单元为基准精准覆盖核心考点。 每个单元设置AB卷，A卷为基础巩固卷，侧重基础考点训练，帮助学生扎实掌握知识要点；B卷为能力提升卷，注重知识整合与全面检测，引导学生构建知识网络。全书设计4份综合测试卷，模拟实战情境，聚焦解题能力突破，全面提升应试能力与知识应用水平。 《英语 基础模块2》（高教版第三版）《单元过关卷》 Unit 7 Invention and Innovation （A卷·基础巩固） 考试时间：90分钟 满分：100分 班级 姓名 学号 成绩 一、单项选择，从题后所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(共10小题,每小题2分，满分20分) 1．—______ is the programs, etc. used to operate a computer. —OK.
