    A child-like robot. Wakamaru, developed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan and combining the roles
    of nurse, companion and security guard, will soon be in the market to look after the growing number of old
    people with no one to look after them.
    Cameras fixed under the "eyebrows" of the robot enable it to "see" as it moves around in a house. The
    images can be sent to the latest mobile phones, which can show the pictures. Wakamaru speaks with either
    the voice of a boy or a girl. It is also designed to provide companionship, saying hello to its "papa" when he
    comes home. Based on a vocabulary of around 10,000 words, it is the first household robot which is able to
    hold simple conversations. It can not only speak, but also understand answers and react accordingly. It will
    ask "Are you all right?" if its owner doesn't move for some time. If the answer is no, or there is no answer, it
    will telephone preset numbers, send images and work as a speakerphone. It can recognize up to 10 faces and
    be set to tell forgetful people when it is time to take medicine, eat and sleep.
    However, like most robots, it cannot climb stairs. Mitsubishi developed Wakamaru from robots which have
    already been made to go around nuclear power facilities."Looking at the ageing of society and the falling birth
    rate we decided that this could work as a business. We want to offer it as a product that helps society,"said the
    project chief. The developers plan to sell the robot from April this year at between5,000 and 6,000 pounds.
    The life expectancy (寿命) of Japanese women has shot up to almost 85, the highest in the world. At the
    same time, large families are being replaced bynuclear families. This has left many Japanese anxious about
    their elderly parents. Therefore, the technology has gained nation-wide publicity in Japan.

    A. introduce a new robot
    B. solve the ageing problem
    C. tell people the rapid development of technology
    D. tell people how to use the robot
    2. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
    A. the robot can dial proper number for help
    B. the robot is likely to have a promising market
    C. the robot enables the Japanese to live longer
    D. many elderly Japanese are anxious about their future
    3. The underlined part "nuclear families"in the last paragraph probably means "_____ ".
    A. families with nuclear power facilities
    B. small families without a parent
    C. families with children and old people
    D. families with parents and their children only
    4. What is the best title for the passage?

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
