A Hunting in Late Fall.C. The Cruel Killing.BMany kids help out around the house with chores（家庭杂务）such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances（补贴）or other rewards such as extra computer time.But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. 4tRunning any kind of household is a team effort, “ Susie said, “a home is a living space fbr everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they want their home to look, and how they arc going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look.”Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed（兑取） either online or in the real world. With the Chore Monster app kids cam digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. "Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards“ says Chris Bergman, founder of Chore Monster, “Kids need positive reinforcement（强化）to help motivate them.”What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return? Write a 200-word response. Send it to . Your response may be published in a future issue of Time For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information of your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is February 18.4. How does the author start （he passage?A. By listing some evidence.B. By presenting some facts.C. By comparing different views.D. By slating his own experiences.5. Which statement is true according to Susie Walton?A. Kids should be rewarded for doing chores.B. Parents decide what kids can do for the family.C. Kids have （he responsibility to share housework.D. Kids can get extra computer time for doing chores.6. The purpose of writing the text is to.A. invite readers to express their opinionsinform readers of two different opinionsB. call on readers to reflect on their behaviorpresent the author's viewpoint about parentingCImagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and help them remember lo take (heir medicine. That is the shared dream of the (oy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or A.L, to Hasbro's "Joy fbr All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced over 1000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” fbr older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities fbr the cat. Researchers at Brown's Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆).The Joy for All cat that Elliott bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Eliot is at work. Elliott said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people.7. What's the purpose of the project?A. To relieve the pain of the elderly.B. lb promote the sales of a medicine.C. Tb help make the robotic cat smarter.D. To invent a robotic cat for the elderly.8. Compared with (he old model, the new robotic cat will be.A. cheapersmallerB. more talkativemore expensive9. What does Paragraph 3 intend to tell us?A. The more functions of the cat, the better.B. The cat gives much help （o the elderly.C. There is no cure for dementia at present.D. Mary Derr would have died without the cat.10. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. A talking cat is quite popular among the elderly.B. Feelings of sadness among the elderly are unavoidable.C. Each family can afford such a cat in the future.D. The feeling of being needed is vital to the elderly.答案：广东省揭阳普宁市2021-2022学年高二上学期期末考试试卷英语试卷【答案】1.D2.
