课时练1　2篇阅读＋1篇完形 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎(2020·六安高三联考)A new study has shown how computers and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye movements to “read” human personalities.‎ The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated(复杂的) artificial intelligence algorithms(演算法) may soon have the ability to peer__into your soul. That is the result of a new study on the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and published in the scientific journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.‎ ‎“Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality，” wrote the researchers, led by University of South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team followed 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determined their personality traits with “wellestablished questionnaires” for determining the personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily.‎ The researchers fed the data into their AI algorithms and found that computers running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a person’s major personality traits, such as “neuroticism, extraversion(外向), agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as curiosity”， the scientists wrote.‎ ‎“The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their computers and other hightech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines，” Loetscher said.‎ ‎“People are always looking for improved, personalized services. Today’s robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to nonverbal information，” Loetscher said in a statement quoted by The Indian Express. This research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers so that they can become more natural, and better at interpreting human social signals.‎ The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要介绍了一项人工智能计算机和机器人通过读人眼球的运动从而一窥人的个性的研究。‎ ‎1．What do the underlined words “peer into” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A．Understand.‎ B．Stare at.‎ C．Search for.‎ D．Concern about.‎ A　解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句“The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul.”，并结合对第一段的整体理解可推知，此处peer into与第一段中的“read”相呼应，故选A。‎ ‎2．How did the researchers conduct the research?‎ A．It was carried out in a lab.‎ B．42 study subjects’ eye movements were recorded.‎ C．The students’ daily movements were tracked.‎ D．Its subjects’ personalities were determined by computer.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据对第三段的整体理解可知，这项研究是通过追踪42个研究对象并记录他们的眼球运动来开展的，故选B。‎ ‎3．According to Tobias Loetscher, what can we know?‎ A．Robots and computers are socially conscious.‎ B．People care less about improved, personalized services.‎ C．Today’s robots and computers can accustom to nonverbal information.‎ D．The discovery will improve the interaction between human beings and machines.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据对倒数第三段的整体理解可知，这项研究发现有助于改善人类和机器的互动，故选D。‎ ‎4．What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A．Human Personality Traits B．What Human Eye Movements Are C．Tell Personalities by Eye Movements D．How Humans and Machines Interact C　解析：标题归纳题。根据第一段开篇点题，并结合对全文的整体理解可推知，本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一项人工智能计算机和机器人通过读人眼球的运动从而一窥人的个性的研究，故选C。‎ B ‎(2020·洛阳、许昌质检)With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives, it is only a matter of time before someone invents smart shoes—ones that can be made based on personal ‎ needs. Called “ShiftWear”， the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of businessmen, and engineers led by New Yorkbased designer David Coelho.‎ The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app. Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design from a variety of HD patterns by famous artists or creating one themselves. The company’s founders imagine the marketplace where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others. Despite being electronic, the designs are clearly visible even in the brightest sunlight. What’s even cooler is that by switching on backlight, users can even show their designs in the dark!‎ According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed. Though they will need periodic recharging, active users have nothing to worry about. That’s because the shoes are equipped with special WalkNCharge technology that powers the shoes—with every step. Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without using wires.‎ The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear. Even better, they are completely waterproof(防水的) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1，000 depending on the size of the EPanels where the designs are displayed.‎ This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined. Lithuaniabased iShuh Technologies has come up with a similar concept that connects ereader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth. Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一种智能运动鞋。‎ ‎5．What can we know about the smart shoes from the text?‎ A．The electronic designs can not be seen clearly at night.‎ B．The designers make sure every pair of sneakers is unique.‎ C．The bottom part of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.‎ D．The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.‎ C　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear.”可知，鞋子的底部附着凯芙拉合成纤维，这是一种增强材料，可以减少正常的磨损；据此可知，由于使用了特殊的材料，这种鞋子的鞋底耐磨，故C项正确。‎ ‎6．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?‎ A．How the sneakers are charged.‎ B．How the sneakers can work well.‎ C．What images the sneakers show.‎ D．What technology the sneakers carry.‎ A　解析：段落大意题。通读第三段可知，该段第一句“According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed.”为该段的主题句，并结合全段内容可知，该段主要介绍了这种鞋子是如何充电的：活跃的用户可以通过走路来充电，不活跃的用户也可以不用电线充电，故A项正确。‎ ‎7．The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on ________.‎ A．the length of the shoes B．the size of their EPanels C．the designers of the shoes D．the material of their bottoms B　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段尾句“The company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1，000 depending on the size of the EPanels where the designs are displayed.”可知，该公司预计，这款鞋的价格范围将是150美元到1 000美元，这取决于展示这些设计的电子显示屏的尺寸，故B项正确。‎ ‎8．How does the author feel about the sneakers’future market?‎ A．Negative.　　　　　　　 B．Anxious.‎ C．Uncertain. D．Confident.‎ C　解析：观点态度题。根据尾段最后一句“Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.”可知，尽管这些智能鞋子很有吸引力，但是它们是否会像我们的智能设备一样流行还有待观察；据此可推知，作者对这种鞋子的未来并不确定，故C项正确。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎(2020·合肥高三调研)Growing up in the 1960s, I was taught from an early age to send a handwritten thankyou note expressing __1__ for kindness.

Enjoy your time living in the moment.”‎ These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks the screen time, created by Kevin ‎ Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction. He was working as an independent app developer, spending hours each day staring at screens. After work, Holesh found that he was looking mindlessly online instead of talking to his wife or taking his dogs for a walk.‎ ‎“I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone，” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh found that he was spending 75 minutes on his phone a day. He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I’d go and do something else. It was like something pushing me in the right direction，” he said. Holesh figured that if the system worked for him, it would work for others, and later that year he made Moment a free app. To date, it has been downloaded 8 million times.‎ Besides, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive, for $7.99 a month.‎ ‎“I am so much happier, I sleep better, I read more, I take better care of myself, and most of all I am present in my daytoday life，” Jack, a user said .

It’s a common problem. And it can be harmful, as previous research has shown that people who procrastinate have higher levels of stress and lower wellbeing, reported the Association for Psychological Science in the US. But a new study has found a way to deal with this problem: Be more connected to your future self.‎ Psychologists think that each person believes that they are really two people：“Present Me” and “Future Me”. “People act as if they prefer their current selves’ needs and desires to those of their future selves，” wrote psychologists Neil Lewis and Daphna Oyserman.‎ Oyserman and Lewis decided to try to find a way to make “Present Me” imagine exactly how “Future Me” would feel the night before a big paper was due, though “Present Me” hadn’t started yet. They made “Present Me” think about a faroff event a number of days away, not months or years.‎ Thinking about events in this__way meant that something like a friend’s wedding seemed 16.3 days sooner when considered in days rather than months and 11.4 months sooner when considered in months rather than years.‎ The researchers also tried to find out whether people would take action sooner if they were ‎ told a certain event was happening in several days rather than years. For example, participants imagined they had a newborn child, and that the child would need to go to college in either 18 years or 6，570 days. The researchers found those in the “days” condition planned to start saving four times sooner than those in the “years” condition.‎ So if you think of your life in days instead of years, you may get things done quicker.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要探究了一种应对拖延症的方法。‎ ‎5．What did Oyserman and Lewis intend to do through their study?‎ A．To work on a solution to test if someone is a procrastinator.‎ B．To find out whether human beings usually have two different characters.‎ C．To discover procrastinators are more likely to have a lower sense of wellbeing.‎ D．To prove it’s helpful to connect our current selves more with future selves.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据对第三段的整体理解可知，Oyserman和Lewis想要通过他们的研究去验证把“现在的我”和“将来的我”联系起来是否会对应对拖延症有一定的帮助，故选D。‎ ‎6．The underlined part “this way” in Paragraph 4 refers to “________”．‎ A．setting up tough deadlines B．following schedules strictly C．counting in smaller units of time D．imagining how your future self will feel C　解析：词义猜测题。承接第三段最后一句“They made ‘Present Me’ think about a faroff event a number of days away, not months or years.”可推知，画线部分是指用更小的时间单位去计量，故选C。‎ ‎7．What helps prevent people from procrastinating?‎ A．Comparing their future selves with present selves.‎ B．Considering their current selves’ needs and desires.‎ C．Thinking about faroff events in days rather than years.‎ D．Marking important events on a calendar as a reminder.‎ C　解析：推理判断题。根据第五段的内容以及最后一段“So if you think of your life in days instead of years, you may get things done quicker.”可推知，用天而不是用年去考虑将来所发生的事情会帮助拖延者不再拖延，故选C。‎ ‎8．What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A．A way to get things done in time.‎ B．The harmful effects of procrastination.‎ C．The reason to overlook future needs and desires.‎ D．The way to reduce stress and improve happiness.‎ A　解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“But a new study has found a way to deal with this problem: Be more connected to your future self.”，并结合对全文的整体理解可推知，本文主要探究了一种应对拖延症的方法，故选A。‎ Ⅱ.七选五 ‎(2020·合肥第一次质检)‎ Apologizing the Right Way to a Friend Why are apologies so difficult?
