分析 本文主要通过讲述Claire与机器人Tony 的故事,旨在说明那家机器人公司在Claire家里测试机器人Tony的原因是:他们不能让女人爱上机器,想重新组建机器人.
解答 61.However 考查副词.however表示转折,尤其用于谈及一个既成事实时,表示转折,其意为"可是""仍然"等.可放在句首、句中或句末,通常用逗号与句子其他成分隔开.
62.felt 考查动词时态.全文讲述的都是已发生的事情,要用一般过去时态.
63.more 考查固定搭配.根据句意:因为他看起来更像人而不是机器.more…than意为"与其说是…不如说是…",是固定搭配.
64.expression 考查名词.此处用在though引导的让步状语从句中作主语,指的是:机器人托尼的面部表情.
65.permitted 考查过去分词.动词permit与其逻辑主语Tony构成的是被动关系,此处用过去分词短语not permitted to go out在句中作原因状语.
66.out 考查固定搭配.help out意为"帮助,帮助…出来",是固定搭配.
67.who 考查定语从句.本句为非限定性的定语从句,先行词Gladys Claffern指人,在从句中作主语,用关系代词who.
68.to be discovered 考查固定句型结构. It is/was+adj.+to do意为"做某事是…的",本句的意思是:被她发现是太可怕的,此处应使用动词不定式的被动语态.
69.an 考查冠词.have an affair意为"有外遇",是固定搭配.
70.falling 考查现在分词.have sb.doing sth.意为"让某人一直做某事",用现在分词短语falling in love with machines作宾语补足语.
