Arthur von Wiesenberger is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily.Even then, he kept a record of the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water，” He says. But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's drinking water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive. However, softdrink companies view bottled water as the next battleground for market share, as bottlers and restaurateurs are longing for the profits from it. A restaurant's typical markup (加价) on wine is 100 to 150 percent, while on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent. As a result, some restaurants are trying to sell more bottled water. Some of the more shameless tactics (手段) include putting attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners whether they want 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 it. Regardless of how it's sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear educated, and even a longing for lost purity. 1．By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water”， Arthur von Wiesenberger suggests that ________. A．bottled water is superior to tap water B．plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinking C．bottled water often appeals more to dogs' taste D．dogs can usually distinguish a fine difference in taste 答案：A 推理判断题。联系这句话前面的 As a boy，he spent time in the larger cities of Italy，France and Switzerland，where bottled water is consumed daily.Even then， he kept a record of the brands he liked best.可以看出他非常认可瓶装矿泉水，故选 A 项。 2．According to the passage, why is bottled water so popular? A．It is much cheaper than wine. B．It is more widely promoted in the market. C．It appeals to well educated people. D．It is considered healthier. 答案：D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的 Regardless of how it's sold，the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health，...可以看出瓶装矿泉水大 受欢迎是因为人们普遍认为其更卫生健康。 3．Why are some restaurants willing to sell bottled water? A．Bottled water brings in huge profits. B．Competition from the wine industry is fierce. C．Most diners find bottled water affordable. D．Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to be fashionable. 答案：A 细节理解题。由第 4 段开头的．..，as bottlers and restaurateurs are longing for the profits from it.可知餐饮之所以大力推销瓶装矿泉水是受利益驱使。 B Robots have proved to be valuable tools for soldiers, surgeons and homeowners hoping to keep the carpet clean. But in each case, they are designed and built specifically for the job. Now there is a movement under way to build multipurpose machines—robots that can move about in changing environments such as offices or living rooms and work with their hands. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 Allpurpose robots are not, of course, a new idea. “It's been 5 or 10 years from happening for about 50 years，” says Eric Berger, codirector of the Personal Robotics Program at Willow Garage, a Silicon Valley organization. The delay is in part because even simple tasks require a huge set of capabilities. For a robot to fetch a mug, for example, it needs to make sense of data gathered by a variety of sensors—laser scanners identifying potential blocking objects, cameras searching for the target, force feedback in the fingers that grasp the mug, and more. Yet Berger and other experts are confident that real progress could be made in the next decade. The problem, according to Willow Garage, is the lack of a common platform for all that computational effort. Instead of enlarging the capabilities of a single machine, everyone is designing robots and the software to control them, from the ground up. To help change this, Willow Garage is currently producing 25 copies of its model PR2 ( Personal Robot 2), a twoarmed, wheeled machine that can switch off the electricity, open doors and move through a room. Ten of the robots will stay inhouse, but 10 more will go to outside research groups, and everyone will share their advances. This way, Berger says, if you want to build the robotic equivalent (等同物) of a Twitter, you won't start by constructing a computer. “You build the thing that's new.” 本文是一篇科普说明文，简要介绍了全能机器人的发展状况、研发困境和解决方案。 4．The robots are mentioned to do some specific jobs EXCEPT in ________. A. battle fields B. operation room C. people's houses D. wild fields 答案：D 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句中的“soldiers，surgeons and homeowners”可知机器人已应用于战场、手术室和家庭，并没有提到 D 项，故答案为 D。 5．The multipurpose robot may be identified as a machine that ________. A．can move about in changing environments and work with their hands B. can make sense of data gathered by a variety of sensors C. has a huge set of abilities to finish all the simple tasks D. has identifying laser scanners, searching cameras and force feedback 答案：A 细节理解题。由文章首段第三句内容可知 A 项正确。 6．According to Willow Garage, we will make real progress in building allpurpose robots if ________. A．everyone designs robots and the software to control them B．they can produce 25 copies of its model PR2 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 C．people can enlarge the capabilities of a single machine D．people can start by constructing a computer 答案：C 推理判断题。根据文章第三段前两句内容可知全能机器人的研发困境是缺少 计算机操作平台，而让单个机器人拥有更多的功能是让全能机器人的研发得到实质性的进展 的方法，C 项正确。 7．Willow Garage is currently producing 25 copies of its model PR2 so as to ________. A．design robots and the software to control them B．change the way of new robot construction research C．open doors and go to outside research groups D．go through the room and stay in house 答案：B 细节理解题。根据文章第三段可知，Willow Garage 的做法是为了改变目前 的研究方法。 8．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. To build allpurpose robots is an absolutely new movement under way. B. Building allpurpose robots was delayed because of its complexity. C. The idea to build allpurpose robots appeared about 50 years ago. D. Everyone will share their advances for they are allpurpose robots. 答案：C 细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句的内容可知制造全能机器人的想法五十 年前就有了，故选 C。
