Question

Welcome to your future life!

You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging(抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of look the same age!

You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes’ color or pattern.

You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says,“ You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk , and it knows the milk is old . In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.

It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.

So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli ,”it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example—what will be the next?

Answer 1

1.D

2.C

3.D

4.B

【解析】

1.细节理解。根据“The particles can be programmed to change clothes’ color or pattern.”可知衣服中的粒子可以帮助改变衣服的颜色和款式。A项为干扰项，说人们永远不会老，根据第二段可知是说抗衰老的技术比现在好，所以父母的年龄看起来和自己一样年轻，但没说永远不会老，故排除。

2.细节理解。根据第四段最后一句话可知，以后的杂货店里任何东西都含有关于产品介绍的芯片，所以答案为 C，商店里的食物都含有电子信息。

3.细节理解。根据“In 2035, cars drive themselves.（车自己就能开）”可以推知答案。

4.主旨大意。从第一段就开始说欢迎来到2035 年的未来，接着分 别论述了在不同领域中科技的使用等， 所以可知这篇文章主要讲的就是将来的日常生活中科 技的运用。
