题目内容

The gray-haired lady can’t wait to leave the building to search for her dad .Unless watched, she will walk in the streets in an effort to find her father, who died 30years ago.

  Not all cases of Alzheimer’s disease look like this ,but Alzheimer’s is a serious disease that is said to be the fourth or fifth leading cause of death for people over age 75.

  It is said that about three percent of the U.S. population over age 65 have Alzheimer’s .In the early stages, people may exhibit short term memory loss. Some may experience changes in personality, easy to be angry .As the disease progresses, patients might lose the ability to move and may be unable to speak or move at all. This progressive disease generally lasts 8 to 10 years before death occurs.

  While no one is certain what causes these changes in the brain’s nerve fibers (神经纤维),their effect is certain .Alzheimer’s destroys not only the patients ,but also spouses(配偶),friends and families.

  What should you do if you notice progressive memory loss in yourself or a loved one? Have the person examined by a doctor who is a specialist in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

  Though many reasons other than Alzheimer’s disease may cause memory loss ,its early diagnosis(诊断)and treatment may delay some of the most serious effects.

   What feeling will you likely experience should a loved one suffer from Alzheimer’s disease? A person will often go through the various stages of sadness, shock, anger, and so on. If the spouse develops the disease, you may experience hurt and disappointment when he or she doesn’t remember you are married.

  Life for the Alzheimer’s patients and their loved ones will never be the same as the disease progresses, bringing a deep sorrow, loss and even anger towards God. No matter what feelings are present, facing them honestly will serve one better than burying them.

What can be inferred from the passage about the gray-haired day?

    A.She has been living with her father.

 B.She was sad about the death of her father.

    C.She can’t search for her father without being watched.

    D.She suffers from Alzheimer’s disease.

When people suffer from Alzheimer’s disease, ________.

 A.their families and friends will suffer from the same disease

    B.their families and friends will experience mental sufferings

    C.they will certainly die in 8 to 10 years

    D.they will forget everybody but their spouses

Memory loss occurs ________.

    A.from Alzheimer’s disease and nothing else

 B.from sadness ,shock ,anger ,and so on

    C.for a number of reasons

    D.with changes in personality

From the passage we know that_____.

 A.early treatment may stop Alzheimer’s disease occurring

    B.it is still unknown what causes the changes in the brain’s nerve fibers

    C.nerve fibers in the brain will cause Alzheimer’s disease

A new walking, talking robot from Japan which has black hair and a woman’s face that can smile will attend a fashion show. It has trimmed down(减少)to 43kg, but it still hasn’t reached the safety standards required to share the catwalk with human models.

Developers at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, a government-backed organization, said their “cybernetic(全自动控制的)human” wasn’t ready to help with daily housework or work side by side with people—as many hope robots will be able to do in the future.

“In technology, it hasn’t reached that level,” said Hirohisa Hirukawa, one of the robot’s developers. “Even as a fashion model, people in the industry told us she was short and had a rather ordinary figure.”

For now, the 158 cm tall black-haired robot named HRP-4C—whose predecessor(前任)had weighed 58 kg — will mainly serve to draw and entertain crowds. Developers said the robot may be used in amusement parks or to perform human movement, as an exercise instructor, for instance.

 HRP-4C was designed to look like an ordinary Japnese woman, although its silver-and-black body reminds people of a space suit. It will appear in a Tokyo fashion show — without any clothes — in a special part just for the robot next week.

The robotic framework(框架)for  HRP-4C, without the face and other coverings, will go on sale for about 20 million yen(日元) each. Its programming technology will be made public so other people can come up with fun moves for the robot, the scientists said.

Japan is one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the industry as a road to growth.

What do we know about HRP-4C’s predecessor?

A.It is shorter than HRP-4C .    B.It is cleverer than HRP-4C .

C.It is taller than HRP-4C .     D.It is heavier than HRP-4C .

According to the passage, how many of the following could HRP-4C do?

a. drawing pictures   

b.  walking and talking

c.  doing housework

d.  working with people

e.  smiling

A.2                B.3            C.4            D.5

Which of the following about HRP-4C is TURE?

A.It wears a space suit.         

B.Its price is 20 million dollars.    

C.It can be used as an exercise instructor.       

D.As a fashion model, it has a perfect figure.

HRP-4C’s programming technology will be made public to        .

A.make money                       B.make new frameworks     

C.let other people improve it          D.help make new face and coverings

What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The purpose of making HRP-4C.    B.Robotics industry in Japan.     

C.A new Japanese robot.                D.Japanese and robots.
