But can they pick a strawberry? “Its really hard for robots to
29、 match what humans can do,” says Bob Pizter, an expert on robots. Any 4-year-old kid can pick a strawberry, but machines cant seem to figure it out. Pizter says the hardest thing for them is finding the fruit. Pizters strawberry-picking robot is rolling into a strawberry field. This well-designed de
30、vice drives itself. Its as big as a bus, long enough to straddle (跨越) a dozen rows of strawberries at once. Powerful computers are sitting on top.

31、issett, chief operating officer of Harvest CROO Robotics. “Its remembering its path down the row. Its remembering where all these plants are.” It knows all these, thanks to the super-accurate GPS. Its computer brain contains a map showing the location of every strawberry plant in the field. The acti
32、on of the machinery is truly impressive, but the baskets are still practically empty. Pitzer says the robots are able to find and pick more than 50 percent of ripe berries. Thats not yet up to human standards. A typical worker, he says, manages to pick anywhere from 60 to 90 percent of the berries.
33、Also, he admits, the machine is slower than human hands. On the other hand, it has some advantages. It can work right through the night. Two years later, he says, this machine will be in the fields working for real. “There are weaknesses to work out, but its getting there. Were close,” he says. Stra
34、wberry companies are putting millions of dollars into this project. The reason, Gary Wishnatzki, owner of Wish Farms, says, is that its getting more and more difficult to find enough people to pick his berries. “The fact of the matter is that if we dont solve the problem of this labor shortage with
35、automation, the industry is facing a big challenge ahead. The price of fruit is going to be much higher,” Jose Santos, leader of the farm, says. Jose is pretty convinced, though, that picking strawberries will always require people. The machines will break down, he points out. In fact, hes looking o
36、n the bright side. “You could afford to give people a day off if you have machines behind you,” he says. 1.According to the passage, which one is right about the strawberry-picking robot?

40、目前的优点和缺点。摘草莓机器 人可以长时间工作但效率不高;但这可以改进,且未来需求大,故其前景广阔。 1.A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It can work right through the night.”可知,机器人可以整 夜工作,即可以加班,故选 A。 2.C推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Pitzer says the robots are able to find and pick more than 50 percent of ripe berries. Thats not yet up to human standards. A typical worker, he says, m
41、anages to pick anywhere from 60 to 90 percent of the berries. Also, he admits, the machine is slower than human hands.”可知,摘草莓的机器人工作速度比人手慢,没有达到人类采摘草莓 的标准。由此可以推知,它效率不高。根据第三段中的“On the other hand, it has some advantages. It can work right through the night. Two years later, he says, this machine will be
42、 in the fields working for real. There are weaknesses to work out, but its getting there. Were close, he says.”可知,这种机器人有优点,非常有前景,两年之后就会被投入使用。由此推知,这种机 器人目前不是很有效率,但很有前途,故选 C。 3.B推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Its remembering its path down the row. Its remembering where all these plants are. It knows all these, thanks
43、to the super-accurate GPS. Its computer brain contains a map showing the location of every strawberry plant in the field. The action of the machinery is truly impressive, but the baskets are still practically empty. Pitzer says the robots are able to find and pick more than 50 percent of ripe berrie
44、s. Thats not yet up to human standards.” 可知,由于超级精确的 GPS,机器人知道每株草莓的位置;机器的作用确实令人印象深刻,但篮 子实际上仍然是空的。机器人能够发现和采摘超过 50%的成熟莓果,这还没有达到人类的标 准。由此推知,虽然机器人配备有精确的 GPS,但实际上,它们并不能精确地定位草莓果实的 位置,从而导致采摘率不高。故选 B。 4.C主旨大意题。第一段直截了当地提出:机器人真的很难达到人类采摘草莓的水平。第 二段和第三段主要介绍了草莓采摘机器人的特点和优缺点(可以长时间工作,但效率不高)。 最后两段对草莓采摘机器人前景的展望(未来需求大,前
45、景广阔)。据此可知,本文主要介绍了 采摘草莓的机器人的现状,故选 C。 .七选五 In the summer of 1848, in Guatemala, a man called Tut went into the jungle(丛林), as he did almost every day.

49、had been found again, and people went there immediately to see it. A.But no one had seen it for centuries. B.To do this, he had to climb the trees. C.And then people forgot that it was there.

50、 scientists began to study the Mayan city.
