三、阅读理解（共8小题，每小题2分，满分16分）
A
Japan is very serious about robotics (机器人技术). If robots are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are just exploring that. In a show this week, a humanoid (人形机器人) with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc.poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate (模仿) life with robot technology.
“A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you’,” said Professor Tomomasa Sato from the University of Tokyo. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”
Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden (长期卧床的).
Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan.
The walking, child-size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at show-rooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller robot-on-wheels companion called Papero. A seal
robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of fuzzy companionship.
Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices (设备) monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail.
On the bright side, the tea-pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes.
1. What is the best title of this passage?
A. “Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan. B. Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan. C. Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly.
D. Robot Technologies Are Widespread in Daily Life in Japan.
2. The underlined word “embedded” in Paragraph 1 probably means . A. fixed B. established C. settled D. rooted 3. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks. B. A robot has been programmed to do the dishes.
C. All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots. D. The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan. 4. We can infer from the passage that . A. people are afraid of being monitored by robots B. the technology of robots has been highlighted in Japan C. robots can completely take the place of human beings D. people’s privacy should be strictly protected
B
The idea of robot rulers, friends and lovers has been a topic of science fiction novels for years.
But according to one mathematical model of how our brains create consciousness, emotional machines will never exist.
This is because computers can’t handle any process that completely integrates (整合) information, so they cannot be conscious or feel, one expert says.
A mathematical model for consciousness, developed by Giulio Tononi at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, says that the ability to integrate information is a key feature of consciousness.
He believes that integrated information can’t be broken down into smaller pieces in conscious minds, because the brain contextualizes (将……融入背景) information.
For example, when we see a red circle our brains don’t see the shape as a colorless circle plus a shapeless colored area, New Scientist reported. Instead we see it as a whole — a red circle; we understand the “wider picture”.
It’s easy enough for machines to edit a collection of individual images (图像), but memories are made up of a bank of intertwined (相互交织的) images and experiences and cannot be changed in the same way.
Researchers have used mathematics to show that computers cannot handle the complex processes needed to fit pieces of information together perfectly.
Therefore, if consciousness is based on the integration of lots of pieces of information, computers can’t be conscious and can’t experience emotions like humans.
Professor Phil Maguire of the National University of Ireland in Maynooth says that consciousness cannot be created in a physical machine in limited time using limited memory.
“It doesn’t necessarily mean that there is some magic going on in the brain that involves some forces that can’t be explained physically. It is just so complex that it’s beyond our abilities to change it,” he said.
His research may mean that lonely humans will not find love with a robot; they are unlikely to be made their slaves either.
5. Why do experts think emotional machines won’t exist? A. Machines can’t solve problems. B. Machines can’t handle information. C. Machines can’t integrate information. D. Machines can’t communicate with people.
6. The example mentioned in Paragraph 6 is used to show _____. A. machines cannot feel
B. the brain has consciousness
C. the brain can contextualize information D. machines can recognize shapes and colors 7. It can be learned from the text that _____. A. machines can edit intertwined images B. the idea of robot lovers won’t come true
C. robots can fit pieces of information together perfectly D. computers can experience emotions like humans one day 8. What would be the best title for the text? A. How robots work
B. Robots will never have feelings C. Will robots become people’s friends? D. What will robots be like in the future?
四、七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
A small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illness in the hospital or at home. These children may feel isolated (隔绝) from their friends and classmates. However, there is a piece of good news for them. 1 Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends.
Anyone who has had a long-term illness knows that recovering at home can be lonely. This can be especially true of children. They may feel left out. 2 This isn’t good for their recovery. They need friends. But their friends can’t come to play with them because they have to attend school. Now the robot can be their friend. The robot is called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is unable to leave home while recovering from a long-term illness. 3 They carry the robot between classes and put the robot on the child’s desk.
4 The founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel. Dolava explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home the child uses a phone to start the robot. Then they use the phone to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child.
The best part is that students can take part in classroom activities from wherever they are recovering —whether at home or on the hospital bed. The robot is equipped with speaker, microphones and cameras, which makes communicating easier. It means they can communicate with their teachers and classmates easily. 5
A. So they won’t feel left out at all. B. They just want to recover quickly. C. As a result, they can get really sad. D. The robot can take their place at school. E. And the child’s school friends must help. F. It took a lot of money to invent the robots.
G. A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot.
