Australia,believes new companions are coming:robot pets.“Technology is moving very fast,Rault told ABC News,“The Tamagotchi in the early 1990s was really the first robotic pet,and now Sony and other big companies have improved them a lot.第 4 页 This may not sit well with pet lovers.After all,who would choose a plastic toy over a lovely puppy But Rault argues that the robotic kind has a lot going for it:“You dont have to feed it,you dont have to walk it,it wont make a mess in your house,and you can go on a holiday without feeling guilty.The technology also benefits those who are allergic to pets,short on space,or fearful of real animals.Its not clear whether robot pets can replace real ones.But studies do suggest that we can bond with these smart machines.People give their cars names and kids give their toy animals life stories.Its the same with robots.When Sony stopped its repair service for its robot dog Aibo in March 2021,owners in Japan held funerals.As an animal welfare researcher,Rault is concerned about how robotic pets could affect our attitudes towards live animals.“If we become used to a robotic companion that doesnt need food,water or exercises,perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,he said.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past,as Rault predicts For those who grew up with living and breathing pets,the mechanical kind might not do.But for our next generation who are in constant touch with smart technology,a future in which lovely pets neednt have a heartbeat might not be a far-fetched dream.【小题 1】What does the underlined

how much time they spend watching TV or using other media,from computers to smart phones to tablets PCs,according to a new survey that found a childs use of media often reflects how much time parents spend in the similar way 第 6 页 We generally found that media use is not a source of conflict in the home for families with young children,Ellen Wartella,a researcher from Northwestem University,told USA Today She led a survey of 2,326 parents who have children 8 and youngerIt found that in 80 percent of families,childrens media use was not a problem,with 55 percent“not too or“not at all concerned about it It also showed parents have more positive than negative feelings about how media consumption affects a childs learning and the development of creativityThe exception is video games,which are viewed more negatively than TV,computers or mobile devices“Parents rated video games as more likely to have a negative effect on childrens school performance,attention time,creativity,social skills,behavior and sleep than any other medium,the researchers said in a news conference about the survey The findings exposes a generational shift 转移 in parental attitudes about technologys role in young childrens lives,said Wartella“Todays parents grew up with technology as a central pact of their lives,so they think about it differently than earlier generations of parents,instead of a battle with kids on one side and parents on the other,the use of media and technology has become a family affair The researchers identified three media environments created by parents:media-centric 39 percent of families,media-moderate 45%and media-light 16%Children in media-centric families 第 7 页 spend at least three hours more each day watching TV or using computers,video games and tablet PCs dont make parenting easierAnd 88 percent of parents say they are most likely to turn to toys or activities to keep their children occupied Slightly fewer turn to books 79%and TV78%The survey didnt look at how media affects children Thats a topic that the American Academy of Pediatrics has handled a number of times The AAP says studies have found too much media use can lead to attention-problems,school difficulties,sleep and eating disorders and being fat In addition,the Internet and cell phones can provide platforms for illegal and risky behaviorsBy limiting screen time and offering educational media and non-electronic formats 格式such as books,newspapers and board games,and watching television with their children,parents can help guide their childrens media experience Putting questionable content into context and teaching kids a700ut advertising contributes to their media literacy 素养,it says The pediatricians group says parents should have“screen-free zones and TV should be turned off during dinner At most,it recommends children and teens engage with entertainment media for no more than two hours a day and that should be high-quality content It is important for kids to spend time on outdoor play,reading,hobbies and using their imaginations in free play“Kids under 第 8 页 2 should not use television and other entertainment media because their brains are developing quickly and they learn best from direct human interaction,the group says An article on screen time by the Mayo Clinic also notes problems linked to over screen time,including being fat,irregular sleep,behavioral problems,weak school performance,violence and less time for active and creative play 50Parents have more negative than positive feelings about media consumption like

extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare,Zimbabwes capital city,is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating principles as the termite mound(白蚁堆).Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building,which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating.The buildingthe countrys largest commercial and shopping complexuses less than 10%of the energy of a conventional building of its size.The Eastgates owners saved$3.5 第 10 页 million on a$36 million building because an air-conditioning equipment didnt have to be imported.The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady,glass-roofed atrium(天井)open to the air.Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium,blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from there into each office through baseboard vents(通风口).As it rises and warms,it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys.During summers cool nights,big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors.By day,smaller fans blow two changes of air an hour through the building,to circulate the air which has been in contact with the cool floors.For winter days,there are small heaters in the vents.This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level,has cloudless skies,little dampness and rapid temperature changesdays as warm as 31 commonly drop to 14 at night.“You couldnt do this in New York,with its hot summers and cold winters,Pearce said.The engineering firm of Ove Arup&Partners monitors daily temperatures.It is found that the temperature of the building has generally stayed between 23 and 25,with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November,when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans 第 11 页 at night.And the air is freshfar more so than in air-conditioned buildings,where up to 30%of the air is recycled.【小题 1】Why was Eastgate cheaper to be built than a conventional building AIt was designed in a smaller size.BNo air conditioners were fixed in.CIts heating system was less advanced.DIt used rather different building materials.【小题 2】What does“it refer to in Paragraph 3 AHollow space.BBaseboard vent.CFresh air from outside.DHeat in the building.【小题 3】Why would a building like Eastgate Not work efficiently in New York ANew York has less clear skies as Harare.BIts dampness affects the circulation of air.CNew York covers a larger area than Harare.DIts temperature changes seasonally rather than daily.【小题 4】The data in the last paragraph suggests Eastgates temperature control system_.Aworks better in hot seasons Bcan recycle up to 30%of the air 第 12 页 Cfunctions well for most of the year Dallows a wide range of temperatures 黑龙江省大庆市喇中 2021 高考英语阅读练习科普环保类 The way we cook is important.In many countries,the two sources of heat used for cooking are natural gas or electric stoves.The World Health Organization(WHO)warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution.The WHO finds that poor cooking,heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home.WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking,heating and lighting.And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year.Of that number,the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料and coal stoves.These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths.These fuels include wood,coal,animal waste and so on.Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO s Department of Public Health,Environmental and Social Determinants of Health.He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene(煤油fuel indoors.He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation.It will only pollute the outdoors.“New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this 第 13 页 problem.The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking.It says huge populations in India,China and Latin American countries,such as Guatemala and Peru,are also at risk.Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool.He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.“There are already many technologies for clean fuels available now.An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol(酒精stove that is made by Dometic(a Sweden
