(2024·淄博高三模拟)
Imagine shopping for clothes online and being able to run your hand across the screen on your computer to feel the fabrics.That kind of technology could be available within the next five years.
“We’re talking about reinventing the way computers operate and you interact with them as humans，” says IBM Vice President Bernie Meyerson.
Extending our sense of touch is one of five innovations (创新) that IBM believes will change the world in the next five years，according to the company’s annual “Five in Five” list.
Smart machines will also soon be able to listen to the environment and highlight the sounds we care about most.For instance，an advanced speech recognition system will tell new parents why their baby is crying.
“From the sound the baby is creating，that particular frequency in the voice of the child，you know the difference between a child for instance who is sick as opposed to a child who is just lonely.”
In the near future，personal computers will be able to do more than recognize images and visual data.Their builtin cameras will be able to analyze features such as colors，and understand the meaning of visual media，such as knowing how to sort family photos.
Smart machines will also be able to smell.If you sneeze on your computer，tiny sensors built in the machine will be able to analyze thousands of molecules (分子) in your breath.Then it can tell you whether you need to see a doctor.
IBM scientists are also developing a system which can experience flavors to be used by chefs to create recipes.It breaks down ingredients to their molecular level and blends them to create the most popular flavors and smells.
One of the most impressive things about the IBM list，says Georgetown University computer science professor Mark Maloof，is how powerful these tiny，smart computers are becoming.Maloof hopes the advances will encourage more students to study science，technology，engineering and math，preparing them to play a role in future innovations.
1．According to the text，IBM________.A．invents a new computer for shopping online
B．decides what technologies will be used in the future
C．predicts we can feel the cloth by touching computers
D．chooses five new possible technologies every five years
2．The example of baby’s crying is mentioned________.
A．to compare whether a child is ill or lonely
B．to show various reasons for baby’s crying
C．to explain the soundanalyzing of the system
D．to teach new parents how to cultivate their child
3．Which of the following about new technologies is wrong?
A．They prevent people from getting sick.
B．They help identify medical conditions.
C．They can sort family photos among media.
D．They create the most popular flavors and smells.
4．According to Maloof，IBM lists the progress in computers to________.
A．warn students of the dangers of online
B．encourage students to invent voice system
C．advocate students to use computers frequently
D．lead more students to create future inventions5．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

C．Computers will see and hear better in the future
D．Science fiction will become a part of our everyday life
课时作业(三十八)
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．解析： 考查交际用语。第一句“Jane，这次参观博物馆你感觉如何？”表示说话人向别人提问对于某事的看法，故答案为A，意为“哦，真是太好了”。
答案： A
2．解析： 考查形容词词义辨析。reliable可靠的；accessible可进入的；available有效的，可得的；convenient方便的。由语境可知，那所偏远的山村学校只有步行才能到达。
答案： B
3．解析： 考查冠词。句意为：最近，一份科学报告指出，驾驶员在路上使用手机更容易发生事故。on the road为固定搭配，意为“在路上”；________accidents表示泛指，第二空不需要填冠词。答案： C
4．解析： 考查状语从句。句意为：不要泄气。顺其自然，你就会享受生活中的每一天。as引导方式状语从句，意为“照……方式”。
答案： B
5．解析： 考查固定结构。句意为：再过一周，我们就将离校放假了。祈使句/名词短语＋and/or＋陈述句，为固定表达结构。其中，前面的祈使句或名词短语相当于if引导的条件句，如用and，前面相当于肯定的if条件句；如用or，则前面相当于否定的条件句。根据语境可知，前面相当于肯定的if条件句。
答案： C
6．解析： 考查动词短语辨析。句意为：大多数餐厅和咖啡馆没有执行法律而是留出了小的无烟区。set aside留出，符合句意。set out动身；set down记下，登记；set off出发，动身。
答案： A
7．解析： 考查情态动词。句意为：虽然根据规定高中生在校不能使用手机，但是他们可以使用公共电话来和朋友家人保持联系。shall用于第三人称，在条约、规定、法令等文件中表示义务或规定，意为“应，必须”，故选B项。

答案： C
12．解析： 考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作knowledge的后置定语，因acquire与其逻辑主语knowledge构成动宾关系，排除B和D；因此处并不表示正在被获得，所以可排除C。
