【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了电影制作人Rob Stewart为保护环境所作出的努力以及他对年轻人的影响。 【8题详解】
推理判断题。关于Rob Stewart我们能了解到什么？Rob Stewart拍摄了两部关于鲨鱼和气候变化的电影，从第四段“Stewart says that the consequences of climate change will be irreversible unless people take action, especially young people.”可知，他关注环境，故选C。 【9题详解】
词义猜测题。要猜测的词汇“irreversible”所在句子是说：如果人们不采取行动，那么由于气候变化引发的后果是irreversible，在第二段中“The Canadian filmmaker says that climate change has harmed people and places everywhere: “It is stronger than any government or organization.”提到了现在气候变化的严重程度，所以四个选项中只有D符合语境，故选D。 【10题详解】
推理判断题。怎么来描述Felix Finkbeiner？最后一段：“Felix tells Stewart in Revolution, “we thought we had to save the polar bear. We thought we had to save the environment. But soon after, we found out that it's about our future, that we have to save our own future.”可知，Felix关注环境问题，认为环境是关乎我们的明天，所以他是有远见了，故选A。 【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章讲述了电影制作人Rob Stewart以及在他的影响下其它年轻人为保护地球环境所做的努力，B项全面概括了这一主旨，故选B。
【点睛】主旨大意题要全面了解文章的中心大意，切忌以偏概全，在这篇文章的第4小题中，4个备选项中，选项C是最大的干扰项，因为文章中也提到了future，但提到future的目的是说环境问题关乎我们的明天，归跟结底还是讨论环境问题，不能只看一个词汇就做出选择。
D
Thanks to this new hands- free suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage may soon become a thing of the past. Designed by Israeli company NUA Robotics, this “smart” suitcase can follow you everywhere you go.
The carry-on suitcase, now a prototype(雏形), connects to a smartphone app via bluetooth. It has a built-in camera sensor that can “see” you and follow you around on flat floors. It comes with an anti-theft alarm to prevent someone carrying it away when you’re not looking.“It can follow and carry things for people around while communicating with their smartphone, and avoiding bumping into other objects,” explained Alex Libman, founder of NUA Robotics.“We’re
combining sensor network, computer vision, and robotics. So if you download our app(应用), press the ‘follow me’ button, the luggage recognizes its user and knows to follow and communicate.”
NUA is still testing the products and trying to improve features like speed and
customization(客户订制), but they hope to make the suitcase available to customers in a year’s time. If it proves successful, they want to use the bluetooth pairing technology to automate(自动化操作）lots of other products, like shopping carts at the supermarket. These products are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly.“Any object can be smart and robotic，” Libman told Mashable.“We want to bring robots into everyday life.”
The Israeli tech company made it clear that the finished product will look just like a common suitcase. They’re planning to partner with a carry-on luggage maker since the product that makes it “smart” weighs just 2.5 pounds and can be fitted on old-fashion luggage.
With NUA’s smart suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage isn’t a burden. But how their invention will handle tough blocks like stairs? It will be interesting to wait. 12. According to the passage, the “smart” suitcase ________． A. can go everywhere B. is on sale now
C. was designed by Alex Libman
D. can make our hands free during traveling
13. If you want to use this free hand suitcase, you must ________． A. look at it all the time B. avoid obstacles C. download the app D. carry a camera

B. It has improved the features of the device.
C. It will make the suitcase available to customers in a month. D. It wants to bring more smart and robotic devices into everyday life. 15. Where is the article probably from? A. A poster.
B. A website.
C. A textbook.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【分析】
D. A biography.

细节理解题。题目问“smart” suitcase智能行李箱相关的问题，第一段“ Thanks to this new hands- free suitcase,……”，可知，由于智能行李箱可以不用手拿，拿着重重的箱子去旅行可能不久就会成为历史。所以D选项正确，故选D。 【13题详解】
细节理解题。题目问：要使用这种不用手的行李箱，需要什么？第二段“So if you download our app(应用), press the ‘follow me’ button, the luggage recognizes its user and knows to follow and communicate.””，可知，如果使用这款箱子，需要下载app，所以C选项正确，故选C。 14题详解】
推理判断题。题目问对NUA公司的了解？第四段：If it proves successful, they want to use the bluetooth pairing technology to automate(自动化操作）lots of other products, like shopping carts at the supermarket. These products are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly.“Any object can be smart and robotic，” Libman told Mashable.“We want to bring robots into everyday life.”可知，如果成功的话，他们希望使用蓝牙配对技术来实现很多其他产品的自动化，比如超市的购物车。这些产品特别适用于残疾人和老年人。“任何物体都可以是智能和机器人。我们想把机器人带入日常生活” Libman 告诉 Mashable。所以关于NUA我们能学到，它希望将更多智能和机器人设备带入日常生活。故选D。 【15题详解】
【书，故选B。
推理判断题。文章是说明文，介绍的是NUA公司的产品和公司的定位，所以不可能来自自传、海报和教科
