1、雅思阅读机经人类与机器人 大家在备考雅思阅读的时候可以多参考一些机经,让大家对雅思阅读的考试内容和形式有一个大致了解,下面我给大家带来雅思阅读机经人类与机器人,希望对你们有所帮助。 雅思阅读机经真题解析:人类与机器人 Man or Machine ADuring July 2003, the Museum of Science in Cambridge, Massachusetts exhibited what Honda calls 'the world's most advanced humanoid robot', AS1MO (the Advanced Step
2、 in Innovative Mobility). Honda's brainchild is on tour in North America and delighting audiences wherever it goes. After 17 years in the making, ASIMO stands at four feet tall, weighs around 115 pounds and looks like a child in an astronaut's suit. Though it is difficult to see ASIMO's
3、face at a distance, on closer inspection it has a smile and two large eyes' that conceal cameras. The robot cannot work autonomously - its actions are 'remote controlled' by scientists through the computer in its backpack. Yet watching ASMIO perform at a show in Massachusetts it seemed u
4、ncannily human. The audience cheered as ASIMO walked forwards and backwards, side to side and up and downstairs. After the show, a number of people told me that they would like robots to play more of a role in daily life - one even said that the robot would be like 'another person'. BWhile t
5、he Japanese have made huge strides in solving some of the engineering problems of human kinetics (n.动力学) and bipedal (adj. 两足动物的)movements, for the past 10 years scientists at MIT's former Artificial Intelligence (Al) lab (recently renamed the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laborat
6、ory, CSAIL) have been making robots that can behave like humans and interact with humans. One of MITs robots, Kismet, is an anthropomorphic (adj.拟人的) head and has two eyes (complete with eyelids), ears, a mouth, and eyebrows. It has several facial expressions, including happy, sad, frightened and di
7、sgusted. Human interlocutors are able to read some of the robot's facial expressions, and often change their behavior towards the machine as a result - for example, playing with it when it appears sad. Kismet is now in MITs museum, but the ideas developed here continue to be explored in new robo
8、ts. CCog (short for Cognition) is another pioneering project from MITs former AI lab. Cog has a head, eyes, two arms, hands and a torso (n.躯干) - and its proportions were originally measured from the body of a researcher in the lab. The work on Cog has been used to test theories of embodiment and dev
9、elopmental robotics, particularly getting a robot to develop intelligence by responding to its environment via sensors, and to learn through these types of interactions. DMIT is getting furthest down the road to creating human-like and interactive robots. Some scientists argue that ASIMO is a great
10、engineering feat but not an intelligent machine - because it is unable to interact autonomously with unpredictabilities in its environment in meaningful ways, and learn from experience. Robots like Cog and Kismet and new robots at MITs CSAIL and media lab, however, are beginning to do this. EThese a
11、re exciting developments. Creating a machine that can walk, make gestures and learn from its environment is an amazing achievement. And watch this space: these achievements are likely rapidly to be improved upon. Humanoid robots could have a plethora of uses in society, helping to free people from e
12、veryday tasks. In japan, for example, there is an aim to create robots that can do the tasks similar to an average human, and also act in more sophisticated situations as firefighters, astronauts or medical assistants to the elderly in the workplace and in homes partly in order to counterbalance the
13、 effects of an ageing population. FSuch robots say much about the way in which we view humanity, and they bring out the best and worst of us. On one hand, these developments express human creativity - our ability to invent, experiment, and to extend our control over the world. On the other hand, the
14、 aim to create a robot like a human being is spurred on by dehumanized ideas - by the sense that human companionship can be substituted by machines; that humans lose their humanity when they interact with technology; or that we are little more than surface and ritual behaviors, that can be simulated
15、 with metal and electrical circuits. Questions 1-6 Reading passage 1 has six paragraphs, A-F. Which paragraph contains the following information? Write the correct letter, A-F, in boxes 1-6 on your answer sheet. NB you may use any letter more than once 1 different ways of using robots 2 a robot whos
16、e body has the same proportion as that of an adult 3 the fact that human can be copied and replaced by robots 4 a comparison between ASIMO from Honda and other robots 5 the pros and cons of creating robots 6 a robot that has eyebrows Questions 7-13 Complete the following summary of the paragraphs of
17、 Reading Passage 1, using NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the Reading Passage for each answer. Write your answers in boxes 7-13 on your answer sheet. In 2003, Massachusetts displayed a robot named ASIMO which was invented by Honda, after a period of 7 in the making. The operating information is stored i
18、n the computer in its 8 so that scientists can control ASIMO's movement. While Japan is making great progress, MIT is developing robots that are human-like and can 9 humans. What is special about Kismet is that it has different 10 which can be read by human interlocutors. 11 is another robot fro
19、m MIT, whose body's proportion is the same as an adult. By responding to the surroundings through 12 ,it could develop its 13 . 文章题目 :Man or Machine 篇章结构 体裁争论文 题目是人还是机器 结构A. ASMID研制胜利并向公众展示的社会影响 B. CSAIL始终致力于研制拟人机器人 C. Cog是有着和人来一样的比例的机器人 D. 在创建类人互动机器人方面, MIT走在前端 E. 类人机器人的发展空间 F. 创建类人机器人的利与弊 试题分析
20、 Question 1-13 题目类型:Information in relevant paragraph 定位词文中对应点题目解析 1Different ways E段第4句E段开头就引出创建机器人的成就, 随后并提出这些成就有肯定的发展空间, 直到第四句说明这些类人机器人have a plethora of uses,用途多样. 因此答案为E 2The same proportion .adultC段第2句C段第2句提到cog has a head.and its proportions were originally measured from the body of a researc
21、her in the lab. 表明该机器人是根据成年人人体比例创建的, 因此答案为C 3Copied replacedF段第3句F段第三句the aim to create.by the sense human.can be substituted., that can be simulated 都表示人类可被机器等取代.因此答案为F 4Comparison ASIMO. Pther robotsD段第2,3句D段第2句指出ASIMO is.but not an intelligent machine,because it is unable to.learn from experience
22、.第3句又表明robots like.however, are beginning to do this. 体现出其他机器人能做到ASIMO所不能做到的自发学习. 因此答案为D 5Pros and consF段第1句F段开头指出这些机器人证明白我们看待人性的方式, bring out the best and worst of us.这半句话体现出创建机器人的利与弊. 因此答案为F 6eyebrowsB段倒数第4句B段倒数第四句提到one of MITS robots is.and has two eyes.and eyebrows. 因此答案B Question7-13 Summary fr
23、om Reading Passage summary参考解题思路: 先跳开空格把该段通读一遍, 了解大意, 发觉总体是根据文章段落依次概括的. (如有所遗忘, 再看原文各段段首句, 也许知道各句在文章的相应段落) 解析: 第1句和第2句对应文章A段, 依据after a period of 7_in the making定位该段第3句, 答案为17 years. 然后依据文章倒数第四句its action are.controlled by scientists through.in its backpack.可以推断8答案为backpack. 该题第3, 4句对应文章B段, MIT is i
