题目内容
【题目】Some people think that their needs of enjoying life________ (satisfy) if robots are widely used in their daily lives.
【答案】will be satisfied
【解析】
句意:一些人认为,如果机器人在他们的日常生活中广泛使用,他们享受生活的需求就会得到满足。
satisfy v. 使满足,使确信。观察句子,这里是that引导的宾语从句,并且宾语从句中含有if的条件状语从句,那么这里应该遵循主将从现的原则,这里应该用一般将来时,并且注意到“their needs of enjoying life他们享受生活的需求”与谓语动词satisfy应该是“需求被满足”用被动语态(be+done),故答案为will be satisfied。

【题目】 As the days get hotter, we can stay inside and turn on the air conditioning to stay comfortable. But do you know that in ancient China, people used a different kind of "air conditioning"?
Starting from the Qin Dynasty, royal and rich families began to store ice during winter. As summer began, they used ice to cool their homes. People would put a container with many ice cubes inside of it in their rooms. Servants would fan the containers to create cool air.
But common people couldn't store ice. So they spent hot days near wells. Some people would keep their food in empty wells. The wells would keep the food cool and fresh, just like a refrigerator.
Chinese people also made their own summer drinks, such as well water and drinks made from herbs(草药). It is said that Kublai Khan—emperor of the Yuan Dynasty—liked drinking milk with ice an(sweet candy. Some people believe that it was the world's first ice cream.
