11、ate people to get out.and exercise more.分析：本句是一个复合句。who引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词Kanda; that引导定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词a robotic walking partner；which引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰前面的整个分句。译文：因此专门研究类人机器人的Kanda发明了一个可以陪人们散步的机器人，这个机器人能够基于周围的环境和人闲谈，他希望这样可以激发人们走出去，多锻炼。1A考查细节理解。根据第一段的“I enjoy walking with someone，like with

12、my wife，with my daughter， Kanda said.But they are not always available.”可知，Kanda发明陪人散步的机器人的原因是想找个人在他散步时陪他，故选A。2A考查推理判断。根据第二段倒数第二句“A microphone，a speaker, and an internal camera allow it to communicate”以及第三段的“Then they programmed.with a voice”可推知，这种机器人可以说话还可以看，故选A。10D考查细节理解。根据第二段倒数第二句“A microphone，a

13、speaker，and an internal camera allow it to communicate”和第三段的“Then they programmed.A special speech software provided the robot with a voice”可知，这种机器人是要配备麦克风、扬声器、内置摄像头以及特殊的语音软件的，故选D。3B考查推理判断。根据最后一段第二句的“it cant really hold a conversation, about which Kanda is most worried”并结合全文的内容可推知，接下来Kanda将要改善的是机器人的

14、交流技能，故选B。二、单句语法填空1She adapted herself quickly _ the climate there.答案：toadapt . to . “使适应”。2After the meeting, the manager asked him to explain his _ (absent)答案：absence absence “缺席；不在”；absent “不在的；缺席的”。由空前的his可知应填名词absence。3Is there any sound more _ (annoy) than the whine of a mosquito?答案：annoyingann

15、oying “恼人的；烦人的；使人不高兴的”，常用来描述事物的特性；annoyed “感到恼火的；觉得生气的”，常描述人的心理状态。此处指声音的特点“令人心烦”可知应填annoying。4Id like to congratulate you _ your wonderful performance.答案：oncongratulate sb. on sth. “就向某人表示祝贺”。5The survey _ (conduct) by the company shows there is a large increase in customer satisfaction this year.答案

16、：conductedconduct与主语survey 之间为被动关系，故应填过去分词conducted充当其后置定语。6All the rooms in this building are so well designed that they are _ (access) to the disabled.答案：accessible be accessible to “可接近/可靠近/可使用的”。7The director was fully convinced that this moving story, if _ (adapt) for television, would be a hit

17、.答案：adaptedadapt “适应；改编”。所给动词与其逻辑主语story之间为被动关系，故填过去分词。8My grandfather often goes to the countryside, because he thinks a stay there will be _ (benefit) to his health.答案：beneficial be beneficial to . “对有益”。9Without his _ (encourage) to me, I would have been defeated in the game.答案：encouragement此处用名词

18、encouragement “鼓励”作介词without的宾语。10_ (ambitious) plays an important role in our daily life, because it is a guide for us to make decisions and choices.答案：Ambition句中缺主语，故应填名词ambition充当主语。且作“雄心，野心”讲时，为不可数名词。三、完形填空。When I was a teenager, we were the only family in our New York town that didnt own a car.
