18、h, rolls in the field on wheels, then stops in front of a plant. A mechanical arm operates its sensor among the leaves; machine vision software scans the sensor data in search of ripe berries. If an unripe berry is in the way, the robot repositions for a better angle. A nipper-grabber （夹爪）mounted in

19、 the middle of the sensors stretches to cut the berrys stem （茎），and then cautiously places it in a waiting plastic container at the robofs base.Tortugas robots are designed to pick strawberries from plants grown on hydroponic （水 培的）tabletops, not the ground strawberries. The tabletop system enables

20、Tortugas strawberry robots to work by making berries easier to be poked up with robotic arms and protecting the robots from direct exposure to the elements.Since hitting this field last spring, the robots are on their way to picking nearly as many berries as human pickers, and with 95% accuracy, acc

21、ording to Tortuga. Unlike a human, the Tortuga robots dont need breaks, cant get sick, are always ready to work and can pick all day and into the night. With wages making up so much of a growers expense, the allure of robots increased reliability and potential to become more cost-efficient over time

22、 is hard to resist.I do think the best humans are going to be able to outperform robots at these judgment-driven tasks, said Eric Adamson, Tortugas cofounder and chief executive. But thafs OK. It doesnt have to be better than every human; it just has to be better than enough people.”Meanwhile, the t

26、d consonants （元音和辅音）to express ideas. Most primates （灵长类）communicate almost using vowel-like calls, but non-human great apes （猿），like chimpanzees, produce consonant-like sounds to varying degrees. This raises the question of where consonants came from, says Adriano Lameira at the University of Warwi

27、ck. To find it out, he studied existing literature to see how common consonants are among the great apes.He found that orangutans （猩猩），which spend most of their time in the trees, produce a greater number and variety of consonant sounds than gorillas and chimpanzees living on the ground. Orangutans

28、have rich sounds like kiss sounds, scrapes and clicks. says Lameira. They typically use these sounds while building nests or commencing with their young.Lameira thinks that living in the trees may explain that Great apes are exports at processing protected foods, like nuts, which often requires tool

29、s. While living in trees, however, orangutans must always use at least one arm to maintain stability. They have therefore developed more complex control of their lips, tongues and jaws, allowing them to use their mouths as a “fifth limb“ orangutans can peel oranges just with lips, for example.This a

30、dvanced motor skill enables orangutans make consonant-like sounds, argues Lameira. This could mean that our early ancestors developed consonant sounds while hanging around in the trees, too. Theres a growing sense that our dependency on trees was much larger and deeper than we think J says Lameira.T

31、he link between feeding and sounds doesnt apply to smaller tree-living primates like monkeys, argues Lameira, because their size and tails make them more stable on branches and they eat differently.“This is an interesting assumption worth testing/ says Chris Petkov at Newcastle University, though he

32、 questions some aspects. As humans arent tree-living, there must be other reasons why consonants remain, which could be tested by characterising consonant-like sounds more systematically across species, he says.12. What does the underlined word it” in paragraph 1 refer to?A.Why vowels and consonants

33、 are used.B.What ideas the consonants express.C.Where the consonants came from.D.How common the consonants are.13. What fact can support Adriano Lamericas assumption about orangutans?A.They build nests with their young.B.They are skillful in employing tools.C.They show stability in controlling arms.

34、D.They gain advanced motor skill ofmouths.14. What can we infer from Adriano Lameiras findings?A. Consonant sounds were made by our earliest ancestors.B , Our ancestors depended more on trees than believed.C. The link between feeding and sounds applies to monkeys.D. Monkeys differ from orangutans in

35、 eating habits.15 . What is Chris Petkovs attitude to Adriano Lameiras assumption?A. Opposed.B. Puzzled.C. Confident.D. Cautious.七选五Have you ever thought about traveling to new places, but you cant afford it? 16 Basically, you work a few hours each week in exchange for free housing. Both meals and o
