Question

【题目】 Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing. Their designers say that with these robots, rescue workers will be able to have more time to save more lives during an earthquake.

This robot looking like a helicopter(直升机) is called the flying robot . It's about 3 meters long, and it took about 4 years to develop the model. Its main functions(作用)are to collect information from the air, and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people trapped by an earthquake. It has a high-definition 360-degree panoramic(全景的) camera. It can work day and night and is also able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.

Dr. Qi Juntong, a researcher at Chinese Academy of Science, said, 'Unlike other automatic machines, the most important feature of this flying robot is that it doesn't need a distant control. We just set the destination information on it, and then it takes off, and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3,000 meters, and as fast as 100 kilometers per hour. '

This robot has another different function --- it can change as the environment changes. Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go. As well as a detector(探测器)that finds victims and detects poisonous gas, a camera is placed in the 3-meter-long robot, which can work in the dark. Another use for the rescuers is the supply bot, with its 10-meter-long pipe, people who are trapped in the ruins will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.

Experts have said that the robots will enter production and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as next year.

【1】What can we learn about from the passage?

A.It hasn't been put into production so far.

B.It is a machine with a length of 10 meters.

C.It is a machine carried by a helicopter.

D.It weighs about 30 kilos.

【2】Dr. Qi Juntong thinks this robot is different from the others mainly because ___.

A.it has more functions

B.it has a more advanced camera

C.it can change as the environment changes

D.it can work by itself once given the information

【3】The underlined word 'which' in Paragraph 4 refers to___.

A.a cameraB.a detectorC.a rescuerD.a doctor

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A.The appearance of the robot.B.An introduction to the robot.

C.The reason for making the robot.D.Some information about earthquakes.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】A

【2】D

【3】A

【4】B

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种地震救援机器人的功能和特点。

【1】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的Experts have said that the robots will enter production and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as next year.可知专家说这种机器人最快在明年投入生产，作为国家地震救援队的成员，即该机器人目前还没有投入生产。A. It hasn't been put into production so far. (迄今为止它还没有投入生产)符合以上说法，故选A项。

【2】细节理解题。根据文章第三段的Dr. Qi Juntong, a researcher at Chinese Academy of Science, said, 'Unlike other automatic machines, the most important feature of this flying robot is that it doesn't need a distant control. We just set the destination information on it, and then it takes off, and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3,000 meters, and as fast as 100 kilometers per hour. ' (中国科学院奇骏同博士说：“与其他自动机器不同，这种飞行机器人最重要的特点是它不需要远距离控制。我们只需要设置目的地信息，然后它自己起飞，自己降落。它的飞行高度可达3000米，速度可达每小时100公里”)可知这种飞行机器人和其他机器人的最大不同之处是，设置目的地信息之后它可以自己执行。D. it can work by itself once given the information (一旦给了信息，它可以自己工作)符合以上说法，故选D项。

【3】词意猜测题。根据划线部分所在句子As well as a detector(探测器)that finds victims and detects poisonous gas, a camera is placed in the 3-meter-long robot, which can work in the dark.可知作为一个发现受害者和侦察有毒气体的探测器，一个相机放在这个3米长的机器人里，which可知在黑暗处工作。结合句意和句子结构可知，关系代词指代的是a camera。故选A项。

【4】主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其是第一段的Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing. (地震救援机器人已经在北京通过了最后的测试)，第二段的 This robot looking like a helicopter(直升机) is called the flying robot . It's about 3 meters long, and it took about 4 years to develop the model. (这种看起来像直升机的机器人被叫做飞行机器人。它们长约3米，用了四年时间完成模型)，第三段的Unlike other automatic machines, the most important feature of this flying robot is that it doesn't need a distant control. (与其他自动机器不同，这种飞行机器人最重要的特点是它不需要远距离控制)和第四段的This robot has another different function --- it can change as the environment changes. (这种机器人还有另外一个不同的功能——它可以随着环境的改变而改变)可知本文主要介绍一种地震救援机器人。B. An introduction to the robot. (对这种机器人的介绍)符合以上说法，故选B项。
