【解析】

文中大意:短文主要介绍了在世界机器人大会上备受关注的一类人工智能机器人。

1句意:我习惯每天说“Alexa,早上好,Alexa,晚安”。

习惯干某事be used to doing sth,故答案为saying

2句意:它没有形状和形式,但是可以与人类在线“交谈”。

根据前后句句意可知,空处的词表示转折,故答案为but

3句意:在2016年的世界机器人大会上,来自10多个国家和地区的超过2000个机器人聚集在一起。

空处的名词前有10的修饰,应用复数形式;country的复数形式为countries,故答案为countries

4句意:机器人是一种流行的人工智能类型。

空处的词在名词type之前,应为形容词作定语;popularity为名词,流行、普及,对应的形容词是popular,流行的、受欢迎的,故答案为popular.

5句意:不需要点击屏幕或使用应用程序。

根据句意可知,此处表泛指,且app的首个音素为元音/ /,故答案为an

6句意:你只需对着麦克风说话,就可以简单地和机器人对话了。

空处的词是修饰动词短语talk to,应为副词;simple是形容词,简单的,对应的副词为simply,意为仅仅、简单地,故答案为simply

根据并列部分可知,空处的词表示“……的”,应用名词所有格,故答案为Apple’s

8句意:它在2003年首次被开发出来。

根据句意可知,句子主语it和动词develop之间是被动关系,所以应用被动语态;又根据助动词was的提示可知,应用一般过去时的被动语态,其构成形式为was/were+donedevelop的过去分词为developed,故答案为developed

9句意:它允许人们随时随地获得智能服务。

根据句意可知,句子是一般现在时;主语是it,第三人称单数形式,所以行为动词allow后要加s,故答案为allows

10句意:当你问关于购物网站的问题时,通常是小I机器人在屏幕后面回答。

此处指关于……的问题,用介词about,故答案为about

【题目】 Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it's easy — you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.

However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn't need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn't need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don't recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.

So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn't a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.

1What is NOT mentioned about bottled water in this passage?

A.It's healthy.B.It's clean.C.It's easy.D.It's expensive.

2Plastic products are made from ______.

A.energyB.oilC.rubbishD.plants

3______of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006.

A.90%B.50%C.80%D.10%

4Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?

A.To drop them into the river.B.To make a piggy bank.

C.To make a plant pot.D.To recycle them.

5The underlined part in this passage tells us "______".

A.To make a different life, you'd better go outside.B.To look different, you'd better wear green clothes.

C.To protect the environment, you can do something.D.To go green, you should use plastic products.

It is obvious that 2.如果人们有问题,他们可能不会把问题告诉家人或亲属,they will instead tell everything to their friends. Let your friend speak up. 3. Listen to him and be with him until your friend feels better.

Try to teach good things

If you are a true friend, you should never give your hungry friend a fish, instead, you should teach him how to fish. This will give your friend food for lifetime. 4. 一个好朋友应该永远不希望他的朋友依赖他人。

Let your friend be himself

5. The most important point is that your friend has his own life and you should not make trouble in his life. You have a right to tell your friend what is good and what is bad, but you do not have a right to make someone do what you wish.

Hope this will help you solve some of your problems you are facing in friendship.

【题目】 The World Health Organization (WHO) is warning young people all over the world that they are also at risk from COVID-19. The WHO said young people are not exempt (豁免) from catching the coronavirus (冠状病毒). Many young people mistakenly believe they will not catch the virus. They think it is a disease that only older people catch. The WHO said the truth is that young people are catching the coronavirus and becoming ill or dying from it. It added that young people are also spreading the disease to their parents, grandparents and other people. The White House also urged (力劝) young adults to follow advice and to avoid gathering in large groups to help prevent the spread of the virus.

The Director-General of the WHO said, "Today, I have a message for young people: You are not invincible (无障碍的,不可战胜的)." He added, "This coronavirus could put you in hospital for weeks, or even kill you. Even if you don't get sick, the choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and death for someone else." The WHO said, "A part of patients treated in hospital for COVID-19 around the world are aged under 50." New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said many young people are not following the state's social-distancing rules. He told young people that, "This is a public health issue (议题) and you cannot be endangering other peoples' health."

A.old peopleB.young peopleC.doctors and nursesD.children

2The White House urged young adults not to ________.

A.gather in large groupsB.prevent the spread of the virus
