Aexplore new cultures Bprotect the environment Cgain corporate benefit Dhelp communities in need B The problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick

10、up calls from numbers they dont know. By next year, half of the calls we receive will be scams(欺诈). We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, its too lit

11、tle, too late. By the time these “solutions”(解决方案) become widely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future, its not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice youre hearing is actually real

12、. Thats because there are a number of powerful voice manipulation(处理) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use. At this years I/O Conference, a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human-sounding voice that it was able

13、 to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection. These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. The reason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision. A decade of data breaches(数据侵 入) of personal information has

14、 led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mothers name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, theyre able to carry out individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you usi

15、ng a voice that sounds exactly like your bank tellers, tricking you into “confirming” your address, mothers name, and card number. Scammers follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is still done over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. V

16、oice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually. We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos an

17、d images, showing when and who they were made by, or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communicationsusing apps like FaceTime or WhatsApp, which can be tied to your identity. Credibility is hard to earn but easy to lose, and the problem is only going to get harder from

18、here on out. 4How does the author feel about the solutions to problem of robocalls? APanicked. BConfused. CEmbarrassed. DDisappointed. 5Taking advantage of the new technologies, scammer can _. Aaim at victims precisely Bdamage databases easily Cstart campaigns rapidly Dspread information widely 6Wha

19、t does the passage imply? AHonesty is the best policy. BTechnologies can be double-edged. CThere are more solutions than problems. DCredibility holds the key to development. 7Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? AWhere the Problem of Robocalls Is Rooted BWho Is to Blame fo

20、r the Problem of Robocalls CWhy Robocalls Are About to Get More Dangerous DHow Robocalls Are Affecting the World of Technology C The rapid growth in skyscrapers worldwide, most of which have large windows, has led to a high demand for window washers. Though the job is well-paid, it is dangerous and

21、accidents are not uncommon. However, if Israel-based start-up Skyline Technologies has its way, the dangerous job may soon be done by Ozmo, an intelligent window cleaning robot, with humans supervising (监督) from the safety of the ground. Much like humans, Ozmo, sitting on platforms hanging from the

22、buildings, uses its arms and brushes to clean the dirt on the glass. A 3D map of the buildings surface programmed into its system allows the robot to skillfully deal with any obstacle it is likely to meet, as it moves up and down the buildings. The robot will self-correct and move around every obsta

23、cle that it might have met so as not to break a window. Unlike present window washers, the robot cleaner does not require soap to clean the glass. Instead, it uses distilled (蒸馏的) water to do the job. Yaron Schwarcz, CEO of Skyline Robotics explains, “We are environmentally friendly.” Ozmo is also e

24、xpected to be much more efficient than its human counterparts. While it presently takes three cleaners 480 hours each to clean windows of a 40-storey glass building, the robot will be able to do it in 80 hours. However, unlike other robots, Ozmo will not replace human workers, and only make their jo

25、bs safer by making them supervisors, who will be controlling the operation from the safety of the ground. Whether Ozmo, which is still being tested, does as good a job as humans remains to be seen. If things go well, its creators have much bigger ambitions for Ozmo. Schwarcz told Forbes Magazine, “W

26、indow cleaning is just the tip of the iceberg. We plan to replace all tasks that are dangerous and dirty.” 8Why is Ozmo friendly to our environment? AIt uses less soap than other robots. BIt depends on solar energy. CIt makes our ecosystem more balanced. DIt consumes nothing made from chemicals. 9Wh

27、at can we infer from the passage? ALike cleaning windows, a well-paid job is usually dangerous. BWithout humans supervising, Ozmo could have performed better. COzmo can save 400 hours per building compared to a human cleaner. DOzmo cant be stopped by obstacles with its advanced system. 10What does t

28、he underlined part “the tip of the iceberg” mean? AA small part of a big plan. BAs cool as the iceberg. CThe most advanced technology. DThe leading role in the modern world. 11What is the best title for the text？ ARobots make a difference. BMeet Ozmo, the window cleaning robot. CSupervise Ozmo, huma

29、n safe. DIntelligent Ozmo becomes known worldwide. D Soaps are television serial (连续的) dramas of a highly dramatic and sentimental (情感的) nature. They are called soaps because many of them were originally funded by soap companies. They were appealing to an audience primarily made up of house wives. S

30、oaps tell us a lot about the viewers they are produced for. These long-running serials, with potentially endless episodes (集), are concerned with everyday life. They are generally aimed at the lower classes in a country. In the US, the most popular soaps usually feature the lives of the rich, the ch

31、arming and the beautiful. Their houses are always beautiful, big and well decorated. The characters lead exciting lives. Most of these characters are very ambitious. One of the most popular soaps is The bold and the Beautiful. The name says it all really! It is set in Los Angeles and centred on the

32、attractive and wealthy Forrester family and their impossibly gorgeous fashion house business. It is probably the most watched soap in the world. The British prefer to see ordinary characters rather than the gorgeous high-flyers of the US soaps. They prefer to view on TV what they have experienced pe

33、rsonally and what they actually see around them. They believe that one should accept ones station in life and not attempt to be more than one actually is. Coronation Street, first shown in 1960, is the longest-running British TV soap opera. It is watched by about one-third of the British population,

34、 more often by women, by older people, and especially by people from lower socio-economic groups. EastEnders is another popular British show, though it appeals to a younger generation. Again the characters tend to be working class. In addition to women, young people and men are also given strong rol

35、es in order to reach a wider audience. Thus the soaps can teach us a lot about the audience that they are intended for. The characters, settings and even the story lines can show us what appeals to British and American people. 12Whats the relationship between soaps and soap companies according to Pa

36、ragraph 1? ASoap companies are named after soaps. BSoap companies support soaps financially. CSoap companies depend on soaps for promoting their products. DSoap companies make soaps appealing to the public. 13How does the author introduce US soaps in Paragraph 2? ABy using examples. BBy making compa

37、risons. CBy analyzing causes. DBy describing processes. 14Which is the difference between British soaps and American soaps? AThe audience they are intended for. BTheir popularity and influence. CThe characters class and the settings. DTheir tradition and history. 15Whats the authors purpose in writi

38、ng the text? ATo show his love for soaps. BTo remember some of the classic soaps. CTo introduce American and British soaps. DTo encourage audience to watch more soaps. 第二节第二节 (共共 5 小题小题:每小题每小题 2 分，满分分，满分 10 分分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Travel Tips for New Zealand If youre looking fo
