Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds. By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when is switched by the housewife. 26．As civilization develops in the direction of technology, ________. A．the basic essentials of life must be supplied B．it is important to supply the basic essentials of life C．it is no longer so important as it was in the past to supply all the basic essentials of life D．it is not necessary to supply the basic essentials of life 27．According to the author, we are faced with ________.

A．to take the place of housewives B．to help manage a family C．to do the routine of housework instead of human D．to provide the daily necessities for man 【答案】26．C 27．D 28．A 29．C 30．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍技术发展使人们可选择用技术减少工作时间，进而提出用机器人帮家庭主妇做家务。 26．细节理解题。根据第一段“As civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of life-food, shelter, clothes and warmth. (随着文明朝着技术方向演进，人类已跨越了单纯满足基本生存需求的阶段——这些需求包括食物、住所、衣物和保暖。)”可知，提供所有基本生活必需品不再像过去那样重要了。故选C。 27．细节理解题。根据第一段“Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. (此时，我们面临两种选择：要么利用技术满足那些如今被视为非必需的需求，要么借助技术缩短人们为维持特定生活水平而必须工作的时间。)”可知，我们面临在利用技术满足需求与减少工作时间之间做出选择。故选D。 28．细节理解题。根据第一段“In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. (换句话说，我们要么将生活水平提升到舒适和幸福所需的水平之上，要么将其维持在这一水平并缩短工作时间。)”以及第二段“I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. (我想当然地认为，到那时人类会选择后一种方案。)”可知，人类未来会选择将我们的生活水平维持在这一水平，并缩短工作时间。故选A。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段“Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds. (然而，绝大多数家庭主妇都希望能从拖地、擦洗炉灶或浴缸、洗衣服、洗碗、掸灰尘、扫地、铺床等日常家务中完全解脱出来。)”可知，现在大多数家庭主妇希望摆脱繁重的家务负担。故选C。 30．推理判断题。通读全文以及最后一段“By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when is switched by the housewife. (到目前为止，减轻家庭主妇日常家务负担最合理的办法是提供一个机器人，它可以根据特定家庭的需求进行训练，并被编程来执行六项或更多的标准操作，只需主妇届时开启开关即可。)”可知，机器人将被发明出来以替代人类完成日常家务。故选C。 B Sacha Jafri is a famous artist from England. He lives in Dubai.

Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds. By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when is switched by the housewife. 26．As civilization develops in the direction of technology, ________. A．the basic essentials of life must be supplied B．it is important to supply the basic essentials of life C．it is no longer so important as it was in the past to supply all the basic essentials of life D．it is not necessary to supply the basic essentials of life 27．According to the author, we are faced with ________. A．the choice of providing and fulfilling our needs B．the choice of using technology C．the choice of earning a standard of living D．a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs to reduce the number of working hours 28．What alternative will mankind have chosen in future? A．To leave our standard of living at this level and work shorter hours. B．To raise our standard of living. C．To fulfill needs which have been regarded as unnecessary. D．To lower our standard of living and work shorter hours. 29．Now most housewives wish to ________. A．stop doing their housework B．do more housework to improve their life C．get rid of the heavy burden of their housework D．do only simple and light housework 30．It can be inferred that robots will be invented ________. A．to take the place of housewives B．to help manage a family C．to do the routine of housework instead of human D．to provide the daily necessities for man B Sacha Jafri is a famous artist from England. He lives in Dubai. Because of the pandemic, he couldn’t travel around, so he decided to create the world’s largest painting. Sacha used a huge ballroom (舞厅) in a hotel to create his painting. The hotel was closed because of the pandemic. It took him about seven months to create the painting. He often worked up to 20 hours a day. His back even hurt while he was painting. Creating the painting used over 1, 000 paintbrushes and 1, 664 gallons of paints. Sacha named his painting The Journey of Humanity. He hoped that it would help bring the world together to overcome the pandemic during this difficult time. When he finished it last September, he set a Guinness World Record for the world’s largest painting. The painting is over 1, 579 square meters. Since Sacha’s purpose was to raise money to help children, he separated the painting into 70 large parts. He hoped that he could raise $30 million by selling the parts. What’s more, through the activity called Journey of Humanity, he hoped to raise more money for charity to provide education, health care and other helpful services for the children across poor areas. He said, “When I was a child, I had little to eat. Now I am able to do something. I have to do something.” He hopes that people can build a world full of love after the pandemic. 31．Why does the writer write the first paragraph? A．To introduce the main idea.

The 57-year-old father of three said on the Today show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed phones until their thirteen birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one. “We’ve made a rule in our family that it’s 13 when you get a phone.” He also said as a result his child often returned home from school complaining, “All the other kids have it, I’m the only without it, it’s so embarrassing.” Asked if he keeps passwords to his son and daughters’ e-mail and Facebook accounts. Mr. Gates said that he doesn’t for Jennifer, 16, who he says is “old enough”. Besides their wealth Mr. and Mrs. Gates, who live in Lake Medina, have said they want to raise their three children as usually as possible. It is said that their kids have to do housework at home after school and aren’t given much pocket money. And in 2010 Mr. Gates said that he wanted to give most of his $61 billion away rather than hand it down. “That wouldn’t be good either for my kids or society,” he said. Mr. Gates left Microsoft in 2008 to put his heart to charity. During the Today interview with host Matt Lauer, he said that helping others made him feel happy as creating software. “What you really feel is what you’ve achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love it — it lets them get their work down in better ways — that’s exciting.” he replied. 36．How old is Phoebe? A．Maybe 11 years old.
