27、When we talk about robots, we may immediately think of sci-fi-inspired humanoid machines. While they primarily remain mythical (神话的), there are numerous more types of robots in use today. Robots differ from other machines in how they interact with the world. They have the ability to change their surroundings and respond to the world around them based on their actions. Yet, as we’ve seen, they’re not yet good for all areas of life. Will this, however, change in the future?

By the mid-2030s, business network PwC expects that robots will have automated up to 30% of occupations. According to some projections, the global stock of robots might reach 20 million by 2030, with automated labor displacing (替换) up to 51 million people in the next ten years. While robots are unlikely to take over the world, we may expect to see more of them in our everyday lives.

Robots are transforming the world by assisting people in performing tasks more efficiently and in ways that were previously impossible. Robots help with disaster response, improve physical abilities, serve in sectors that require human connection, and permit exploration beyond Earth’s borders. Robots are having a generally positive impact on the globe. They may be replacing some human employment, but they also improve efficiency, which improves economic activity, which in turn creates more opportunities for humans to develop new ways to earn money.

Machines and robots with the ability to learn could have an even wider range of behooves. Robots that can adapt to their surroundings, learn new procedures, and change their behavior in the future will be better suitable for more complicated activities. Robots have the potential to improve our lives in the long run. They may be able to improve healthcare and make transportation more efficient, in addition to shouldering the strain of physically demanding or repetitive work.

【1】What makes robots different from other machines?

A．The way they respond to the world.

B．The surroundings they can adapt to.

C．The diversity of their types and effects.

D．The important role they play in the world.

【2】How does the author develop the second paragraph?

A．By making comparisons.

B．By analyzing the reasons.

C．By listing figures.

D．By giving different opinions.

【3】Which of the following may the author agree with about the future of robots?

A．They will help humans earn more money.

B．They can free humans from housework completely.

C．They will take over most areas of people’s future life.

D．They may do more good than harm to humans’ future.

【4】What does the underlined word “behooves” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A．Origins.

B．Applications.

C．Choices.

D．Challenges.

28、   Vinegar is great. It makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even clean your windows with it. And now, according to scientists，it may even help the planet's population survive climate change. Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science （CSRS） in Japan proved that. They found growing plants in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This could mean that in the future, worries about climate change affecting the world's supply of food will be much lower．

The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Arabidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive in dry weather. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate （醋酸盐）-the main component of vinegar．

After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by adding acetate to the soil of other plants before they stopped giving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 days, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived, while the untreated plants had dried up and died．

It's hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be used to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive, "In the experiment, we targeted the staple foods of the world-rice, wheat and maize…and proved successful" Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study, told Popular Science magazine．

Kim has already been in touch with people around the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from farmers to companies and amateur gardeners. "Now we are trying to cooperate with them to make a method to apply this system, and make the process as simple as possible," he said. Hopefully this means the end of hunger caused by bad weather in the future．

【1】What did the researchers from the RIKEN Center prove?

A.Vinegar may help creatures survive bad weather.

B.Vinegar is found in plants by Japanese scientists．

C.Vinegar is very useful for cooking a good meal．

D.Vinegar is mainly used by people to clean houses．

【2】How did Scientists find the effects of acetate on plant in the dry weather?

A.By studying the soil. B.By studying the data.

C.By observing the plants. D.By doing the experiment.

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph？

A.The method has a bright future especially in agriculture．

B.Keeping plants alive means a lot for scientists．

C.How to decrease the cost is the main issue.

D.It’s too difficult for farmers to accept the method．

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text？

A.Vinegar and Food B.Vinegar Could End Hunger

C.Japanese Scientists Find a Plant D.Plants Need Water

29、Art is a powerful tool for telling a scientific story. Many scientific fields deal with the strangest of the animal kingdom — like creatures with a handful of eyes and bodies so different from our own. Art can help us experience these hard-to-imagine parts of the natural world and shed light on new scientific discoveries.

Alia Payne, an interactive arts professor came to the National Museum of Natural History to work with the live jellyfish collections. She always got the same question from visitors, “How do jellyfish stings work?” She had the scientific answer for them but found it difficult to explain without a clear visual. That’s when a lightbulb went off in Payne’s mind. She built a 3D model of one of the stinging cells that visitors could touch and interact with. “I’ve always loved art for education,” said Payne. “We learn more easily when we have something to play and interact with.”

While art helps society experience, it also helps scientists understand the natural world. Dr. Karen Osborn, a zoologist at the museum, specializes in the striking creatures of the ocean’s largest habitat—the midwater. Midwater creatures are equipped with all sorts of unique features to get them through life in their extreme habitat, and Osborn’s research helps us understand how these animals came to be. “So I started learning photography,” Osborn explained. “It was really important because these animals don’t look so great when they’re preserved in a jar in the museum’s collections.”

Artistic creativity provides an opportunity to show off the bright colors, attractive body plans and cool adaptations of these creatures to the museum’s scientists, visitors and the world. In turn, art connects scientists to their own creativity and aids in their scientific process and the communication of their discoveries. By weaving together science with imagination and storytelling, art helps highlight the beauty of the ocean’s creatures even those fit for horror movies — and connects people to their innate curiosity for the strangeness of the animal kingdom.

【1】What can we know about art according to Paragraph 1?

A．It is a powerful tool with a scientific story.

B．It can help us get close to the natural world.

C．It can provide a new view for exploring science.

D．It has different eyes and bodies to experience nature.

【2】What is Payne’s purpose of building a 3D model?

A．To show off.

B．To get a job.

C．To persuade visitors to buy jellyfish.

D．To explain science in a simple way.

【3】Why does Osborn start learning photography?

A．Because he is full of imagination.

B．Because he wants to improve his work.

C．Because he is attracted by the natural world.

D．Because he wants to help scientists understand nature.

【4】How does art affect scientists?

A．It promotes their creativity.

B．It focuses on the scientific process.

C．It helps scientists experience society.

D．It provides an opportunity for the scientists.
