【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
The timer is running. These people have 60 minutes to escape (逃脫) from a room they paid to be locked inside.
It is a game with clues (線索) that are spread in the room. And there is no starting point. You start wherever you feel like. It is up to you to put the clues together in order to find the key to get out.
A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House. It is built like the office of the American president. The fun part of Escape the Oval Office is that anything here could be a clue to solving the puzzle. An old typewriter from the 1930s. Or the small table in the corner. Or the map of Washington D.C. on the wall. And then there are hidden messages that can only be seen under a black light.
Sometimes, the telephone rings. “Would you guys like a clue?” The boss controls the game progress on a camera and calls to offer hints (提示) when needed.
Teams can be made up of classmates, families, tourists, or a group of six friends and two strangers who just meet before the game starts.
It's said that there are more than 800 Escape Room adventures in Washington D.C.. Each experience has different themes and stories. The rules for playing are similar, and solving the puzzle needs social, physical abilities and quick, creative thinking.
It was a little stressful. Some of the clues seemed really complex (復雜的). But it was a lot of fun, and the players had no idea what to expect.
Escape Room adventure is popular because it gives any person a chance to be a detective or to be a James Bond. However, like most team sports, this game is really all about being a good teammate and having a good time.
(1)Escape the Oval Office is a popular room in __________ .
A.Chongqing
B.Washington DC

【解析】短文介紹了逃離仿真白宮橢圓形辦公室的密室探險游戲,像這樣密室逃脫探險場所美國各地現(xiàn)有大約800個。它是由逃脫吧老板蒂莫西·史密斯開辦的,解開謎團需要社交參與和身體力行,以及敏捷的創(chuàng)意思維,更需要團隊合作精神,同時還能給人帶來成功的喜悅。

(1)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段中的句子“A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House.” 探險游戲逃離白宮橢圓形辦公室這個受歡迎的房間在美國的華盛頓,答案為B。

(2)詞義猜測題。上文介紹逃離密室探險游戲具有極強的挑戰(zhàn)性,他們有60分鐘的逃離時間,根據(jù)現(xiàn)場探測,通過自己的智慧去搜尋有用線索,解開謎團。因此A答案最符合題意。

(3)細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)短文最后一句話“However, like most team sports, this game is really all about being a good teammate and having a good time.”可知,成功逃離需要團隊通力合作,故答案D正確。

(4)推理判斷題。短文介紹了逃離仿真白宮橢圓形辦公室的密室探險游戲。它是由逃脫吧老板蒂莫西·史密斯開辦的,解開謎團需要社交參與和身體力行,以及敏捷的創(chuàng)意思維,更需要團隊合作精神。像這樣密室逃脫探險場所美國各地現(xiàn)有大約800個。這樣的報道最有可能出現(xiàn)在報紙上,A. newspaper報紙;B. medicine box藥品箱;C. story book 故事書;D. movie poster電影海報。所以答案是A。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
In some science fiction movies, evil robots refuse to die, no matter how hard people fight back.
Now science fiction has become science fact. For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider with four legs.
Until now, even the most advanced (先進的) robot was almost certain to break down when it was damaged. That is because its computer inside simply doesn't know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed.
To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (發(fā)動機) and two sensors (傳感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals to the machine's software. Using this information, the computer can then figure out the machine's shape at any moment.
The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and it's far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better artificial (假的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who lose them. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals figure out their own sense of place in space.
“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when it's damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.”
(1)Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?
A.They cannot repair themselves.
B.The computer has changed a lot.
C.They have no computers inside.
D.The computer cannot work if the robot changes.
(2)The new technology allows the robot to _________.
A.do house work for humans
B.keep working after being damaged
C.remember a lot of information
D.tell people where it is
(3)The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________.
A.sensors
B.robots
C.arms and legs
D.scientists
(4)How do the sensors in the robot work?
A.They can replace the computer when it's broken.
B.They can find out where the damage comes from.
C.They help the computer learn the robot's condition.
D.They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.
