16、 May be you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kids huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every

17、 baseball player in every team this season.He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Childs age returns, “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes,

18、and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weath

19、er, he visits .Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David

20、 in the movie AI. Artificial Intelligence, he must solve two problems.The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are sorted in different ways. Thats why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task

21、 to let him find it himself.Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks(缺少) common sensea basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious(明显的) to any young child.36From the text we can infer that is a website _.Awhich is special

22、ly designed to help Smarter ChildBwhich is about artificial intelligenceCwhere people can find Smarter ChildDwhere weather forecasts are made27It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to _.Alearn the ability to tell right behaviors from wrong ones.Btell us how the American government is runCp

23、rovide us with a famous poem by ShakespeareDtell us how to spell a difficult word38Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? ASmart Child has his own memory bank big enough for all kinds of information.BAI. Artificial Intelligence is probably the name of a film about a boy-computer.CSmar

24、t Child can recognize different files and find information needed on his own.DWe have similar product now which has the knowledge of Einstein, Nixon and Spears.BWith the Internet, people can send and receive e-mails. On the Internet, people can skim over news. Using the Telnet, the user anywhere on

25、the Internet can log into any other machine on which he has an account. It is possible to use the FTP program to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another.But the Internet also brings us troubles.Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological health, according to research at Carneg

26、ie Mellon University. Even people （who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet） experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often, the two-year study showed. And it wasnt that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the N

27、et actually seemed to cause the bad feelings.Researchers are puzzled about the results, which were completely opposite to what they had expected. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with

28、others.The fact that Internet use reduces time that was used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health, researchers said. Faceless, bodiless “virtual” (communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations, and the relationships formed through it may no

29、t be so deep. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.“But its important to remember this is not about the technology; its about how it is used,” said one of the researchers. “It really points to the need for considering soc

30、ial factors when you design new inventions.”39The writer mainly wants to tell us that _.Athe Internet can bring people many advantagesBthe Internet use may cause psychological problemsCthe Internet users are not satisfied with their livesDwe shouldnt use the Internet40Why are the researchers puzzlin

31、g over the results?ABecause the results were completely different from what they had thought.BBecause the Net proved socially healthier than television.CBecause the Internet users were all healthier.DBecause the Internet users experienced less depression and loneliness.41What does the underlined par

32、t in the last paragraph mean?AWhat matters is not the technology but how it is used.BThis passage is not about the technology but about how it is used.CWe should remember to learn about the technology.DWe should remember to learn how to use computers.C Have you ever thought of what you are going to

33、do after your retirement? Travel around the world? Keep working? Get more exercise? Or learn something new? You may put them on hold. Theres a chance that, sooner or later, you might have to move to live a place further than you were thinking, as far as mars.On Thursday, National Geographic will sho

34、w the first-ever Mars show home, giving earthlings (地球人) an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet. In the not-so-distant year of 2037, the igloo-shaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft (航天器) parts and Martian soil, called

35、 regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks. Some parts of the home are recognizablea kitchen, a bedroombut there are fundamental differences that are important to human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earths, people will need permanent (永久的) shelter f

36、rom the sun; society will move largely indoors. Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses wont have windows. The homes will have simulated solar lighting, or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick to protect people from

37、dangerous rays (光线) that can pass through six feet of steel, and a double air-locked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We dont think of our houses as things that keep us alive, but on Mars your house will be a survival centre,” says Stephen Petranek, author of How Well Live on Mars. T

38、his is not just the stuff of sci-fi. “10 to 20 years from now there will certainly be people, on Mars.” Petranek says.“Weve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars, but we havent had the will,” Petranek says. But two main factors have “completely swung public attitudes”.The private co

39、mpanies participation has forced government agencies to speed up their game, and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught societys eye.42What can we know about the show home from the text?AIt has no windows or doors due to security concern.BIt has thick walls keeping the home un

40、der proper pressure.CIts design presents the idea of environmental protection.DIts underground passages connect all the building together.43What do the underlined words “put them on hold” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?ATake them seriously.BGive them away.CCarry them through.DPut them off.44According

Have you ever taken part in camps and do you know that over ten million American kids go to camp every summer ? _46

43、_ At that time, hot city summers made people feel bad and even unhealthy for children, so escaping to the country for a few weeks became popular.
