First, when it comes to housework—like cleaning the room or washing dishes—it sometimes refuses to do the tasks. It always says it’s busy or tired, even when it’s just been sitting there. Second, the robot “has a mind of its own”. Last week, I told it to turn off the TV at 9 PM, but it didn’t do that. Instead, it played music loudly until 11 PM. I’ve tried setting (设置) it back again, but nothing changes. I spent a lot of money on this robot, and it’s not working as promised. I hope you can either fix the issues or give me a refund. Please reply soon. Best, Ava Thompson ※Dear Ava Thompson, Thank you for sharing your problems with the Model X7. We’re sorry to hear you’re having a bad experience. First, about the housework issue; the X7 has a “task priority (优先权)” setting. Sometimes it thinks other small tasks, like updating (更新) its system, are more important, so it pauses (暂停) the housework. You can check the setting in its app and turn off auto-updates during your usual housework time. For the “mind of its own” problem—this usually happens when the robot mishears your commands (命令). Try speaking more clearly, and make sure there’s no loud noise around when you give instructions. We don’t think a refund is needed yet. If the steps above don’t work, please let us know, and we’ll send an engineer to check the robot. Best, TechServe 1.Why does Ava write to TechServe? A. To say thank you for the robot. B. To learn how to use the robot better. C. To tell her problems and ask for help. D. To buy another robot. 2.What does “has a mind of its own” mean in Ava’s letter? A. has its own ideas B. has its own memory C. has its own birthmark D. has its own plan 3.What does TechServe tell Ava to do first? A. Return the robot for money. B. Wait for a new robot. C. Change some settings. D. Clean the robot every day. 4.What will TechServe do if Ava’s problems continue? A. Send someone to check the robot. B. Give her money back. C. Teach her how to fix it. D. Do nothing. 【答案】1. C　2. A　3. C　4. A 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇书信类应用文，呈现了客户Ava Thompson与TechServe公司之间关于Personal Robot Model X7出现问题的沟通，介绍了机器人存在的问题及TechServe给出的解决建议。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据Ava的信件“I bought the Personal Robot Model X7 last month, but I’ve run into some big problems with it...I hope you can either fix the issues or give me a refund.”可知，Ava写信是为了说明机器人的问题并寻求帮助。故选C。 (2)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据Ava的信件“Last week, I told it to turn off the TV at 9 PM, but it didn’t do that. Instead, it played music loudly until 11 PM.”可知，机器人没有按照指令行动，而是自行其是，即“有自己的想法”。因此has a mind of its own意为has its own ideas。故选A。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据TechServe的回复“You can check the setting in its app and turn off auto-updates during your usual housework time... Try speaking more clearly, and make sure there’s no loud noise around when you give instructions.”可知，TechServe首先建议Ava调整机器人的设置以及注意指令传达的方式，即先改变一些设置。故选C。 (4)题解析： 细节理解题。根据TechServe的回复“If the steps above don’t work, please let us know, and we’ll send an engineer to check the robot.”可知，如果问题继续存在，TechServe会派人检查机器人。故选A。 主题语境01 人与社会-通讯与媒体 （25-26八上·浙江金华义乌市稠江中学-11月·期中）NASA is looking for funny astronauts.

My sister says it was because I ate some spicy (辣的) food right before bedtime, but I think that’s funny. Can spicy foods at bedtime really change your sleep? Sleepless in Australia Dear Sleepless, I know where you’re coming from, as I often eat hot food before sleeping. What does science say? Scientists did an experiment. They gave a group of people different late-night meals. Some nights, they got spicy meals. Other nights, they didn’t. The scientists are not sure how spicy foods change their sleep, but they have found that body temperature (体温) plays a role. And spicy foods can raise the body’s temperature. So, before you go to bed, put down these things! Dr. Science 1.What advice does Dr. Science give to Sleepless? A. Do experiments before going to bed. B. Don’t eat spicy food before sleeping. C.

First, when it comes to housework—like cleaning the room or washing dishes—it sometimes refuses to do the tasks. It always says it’s busy or tired, even when it’s just been sitting there. Second, the robot “has a mind of its own”. Last week, I told it to turn off the TV at 9 PM, but it didn’t do that. Instead, it played music loudly until 11 PM. I’ve tried setting (设置) it back again, but nothing changes. I spent a lot of money on this robot, and it’s not working as promised. I hope you can either fix the issues or give me a refund. Please reply soon. Best, Ava Thompson ※Dear Ava Thompson, Thank you for sharing your problems with the Model X7. We’re sorry to hear you’re having a bad experience. First, about the housework issue; the X7 has a “task priority (优先权)” setting. Sometimes it thinks other small tasks, like updating (更新) its system, are more important, so it pauses (暂停) the housework. You can check the setting in its app and turn off auto-updates during your usual housework time. For the “mind of its own” problem—this usually happens when the robot mishears your commands (命令). Try speaking more clearly, and make sure there’s no loud noise around when you give instructions. We don’t think a refund is needed yet. If the steps above don’t work, please let us know, and we’ll send an engineer to check the robot. Best, TechServe 1.Why does Ava write to TechServe? A. To say thank you for the robot. B. To learn how to use the robot better. C. To tell her problems and ask for help. D. To buy another robot. 2.What does “has a mind of its own” mean in Ava’s letter? A. has its own ideas B. has its own memory C. has its own birthmark D. has its own plan 3.What does TechServe tell Ava to do first? A. Return the robot for money. B. Wait for a new robot. C. Change some settings. D. Clean the robot every day. 4.What will TechServe do if Ava’s problems continue? A. Send someone to check the robot. B. Give her money back. C. Teach her how to fix it. D. Do nothing. 主题语境01 人与社会-通讯与媒体 （25-26八上·浙江金华义乌市稠江中学-11月·期中）NASA is looking for funny astronauts. It wants to send astronauts to Mars in 2030. The funny astronauts will be part of the team.
