Instead, the device uses a camera to scan objects, and focuses on analyzing information around its user and beaming that to a smartphone. Baidu says the device is designed to support image search. The company's CEO Robin Li believes in five years' time, people will get used to searching by image and audio rather than text. Li has given an example of how one can take advantage of Baidu Eye, "If you are in a shopping mall and come across a woman whose skirt looks really attractive, you take a photo of her skirt using Baidu Eye, and you'll get to know where to buy one for yourself." According to Kaiser Kuo, Baidu's director of international communications, Baidu Eye can also recognize voice and gesture, "You can use voice commands, or gesture commands - like expanding to zoom, or circling an object in your field of view with your finger." Baidu is yet to announce a release date or marketing plans for Baidu Eye.

Since the robot is linked to the Internet, it can support long-distance audio and video calls. Mass production started this month and Shanghai PT Info plans to manufacture 200,000 units this year. But the future is not easy for Shanghai PT Info. Earlier this year, Flyingwings Intelligent Robot Technology (Shanghai) introduced a machine with sensors that will ring an alarm when an elderly person falls down.Tianjin ShangjiuShengyuan Technology Group also developed a robot for seniors in 2014.

Proponents of genetically modified foods say they are safe and can boost harvests in bad conditions by protecting against pests, weeds and drought.

Doug Gurian-Sherman, senior scientist for the food and environment program at the Union of Concerned Scientists, an advocacy group, said genetic engineering for insect resistance has provided only a modest increase in yields since the 1990s and drought-resistant strains have only reduced losses from drought.

79. 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容从A、B、C三个选项中选出一个最佳选项。 （课外选材） According to experts, the advantage of modified food is that it helps in preventing the occurrence of allergies and also has a long shelf life. However, a major portion of the population is against the consumption of genetically modified food and is concerned about its disadvantages. If you are also confused about the consumption of genetically modified food, read through the pros and cons given below and decide for yourself. Advantages of Genetically Modified Foods ●One of the most prominent advantages of genetically modified food is that it helps in controlling the occurrence of certain diseases. Certain foods cause allergy to people. Their genetic modification alters the DNA system of these foods, thereby making them non-allergic. ●Another major advantage of such type of foods is that they grow faster than their traditionally grown counterparts. As a result, there is greater productivity and more food. ●A person need not bother about any additional costs, such as buying chemicals and pesticides, when it comes to genetically engineered food. The food is naturally pest-resistant. ●Farming these foods can be a great way to fight world hunger. Since these crops grow faster or more effectively, increased production would help countries wherein crops may not normally prosper because of less than desirable environmental conditions. ●The increased shelf life of these food products helps in reducing the quantity of rotten food. Disadvantages of Genetically Modified Foods ●The biggest disadvantage of genetically modified food is that they have harmful effects on the human body. The consumption of these genetically engineered foods can lead to development of diseases that are immune to antibiotics. ●Chances of developing cancer are high in people who regularly consume engineered food. ●Since it is an unnatural way of producing foods, there is an increased health hazard such as allergens, transfer of antibiotic resistance markers and unknown effects. ●Since the production of engineered food involves infusing animal genes in the crops and tampering with nature, it might not be good for consumption in the long run. How does genetically modified food control the occurrence of certain diseases? A. By cross-pollinating. B. By conventional crossbreeding. C. By altering the DNA system of these foods. 2. Do farmers need to buy any chemicals and pesticides if they plant genetically modified food? A. Yes, they need to. Because the food is not resist to pests. B. No, they don’t need to.

111. 阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容进行选择。 My mother fought breast cancer for almost a decade and died at 56. My children never have the chance to know her and experience how loving and gracious she was. We often speak of “Mommy's mommy”, and they asked if the same could happen to me. I have always told them not to worry, but the truth is I carry a “faulty” gene, BRCA1, which sharply increases my risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer. My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer. Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much as I could. My own process began on Feb. 2 with a procedure known as a “nipple delay”, which rules out disease in the breast ducts behind the nipple and draws extra blood flow to the area. This causes some pain and a lot of bruises, but it increases the chance of saving the nipple. Two weeks later I had the major surgery, where the breast tissue is removed and temporary fillers are put in place. The operation took eight hours. Nine weeks later, the final surgery is completed with the reconstruction of the breasts with an implant. On April 27, I finished the three months of medical procedures that the mastectomies involved. I wanted to write this to tell other women that the decision to have a mastectomy was not easy. But it is one I am very happy that I made. My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from 87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don't need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer. The cost of testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2, at more than $3,000 in the United States, remains an obstacle for many women. Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of. 1. Angelina Jolie never have the chance to know her mother and experience how loving and gracious she was. 2. Angelina Jolie carries a “faulty” gene, BRCA1, which sharply increases her risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer. 3. Angelina Jolie said it is not easy to have a mastectomy, but it is a worthwhile choice. 4.Angelina Jolie will have no chances of developing breast cancer after the mastectomy. 5. The cost of testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 is not a big problem for many women.

112. 阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容进行选择。 Liverpool city council want to clear the city of fat pigeons. They say that people are feeding the birds, which makes them fat. The pigeons get bigger because their normal diet would consist of seeds and insects, not high-fat junk food they are eating in the city centre. The council want people to know that everyone who feeds the pigeons is responsible for the streets being so crowded with these birds. They hope to encourage the birds to move away from the city centre and into parks and open spaces. Ten robotic birds have been brought into the city centre to scare the pigeons away and visitors are asked not to give the pigeons any food. The mechanical birds—known as 'robops'—will sit on the roofs of buildings. They can be moved around to different locations. They look like a peregrine falcon, which is a bird that kills pigeons. They even make noises and flap their wings to scare the pigeons. They hope that the pigeons will go away before the city becomes the European Capital of Culture in two years. 1.Pigeons get fat because they eat seeds and insects. 2. According to the council, everyone is to blame for the numbers of pigeons. 3. They want the pigeons to move out of the city centre. 4. The robotic birds can move around the city centre. 5.A peregrine falcon likes to eat pigeons.

113. 阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容进行选择。 If you think 3D printing is only good for making flimsy paperweights, then you're pretty much right. However, a group of audacious Dutch architects have already begun 3D printing an entire canal house in Amsterdam. Is the first 3D printed house a gimmick? Definitely! Is it an experiment that pushes the possibilities for 3D printing technology and architecture? Maybe! 3D Print Canal House is the brainchild of DUS Architects. “KamerMaker”, Dutch for “room maker”, is their giant printer built inside a shipping container. Just a few weeks ago, KamerMaker began printing plastic furniture and walls at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam. Smaller versions of the unusual honeycomb walls have been tested on normal desktop printers, and everyone just needed to scale it up. Well, if only it were that easy. “The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly, making some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block uneven,” reported ARN (Australian Radio Network), to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer. But the architects remain optimistic. The first few printed blocks are meant to be test pieces as they improve the process. It takes about a week to print a 3-meter high block right now. The project's leader hopes to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a year, and the entire house in less than 3 years. Ultimately, 3D Print Canal House is an architectural research project, one that is very much being conducted in the public eye: you can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site for 2.50 Euros. The top floors will become more ornate, for example, as newer techniques are incorporated. They'll explore the possibilities of 3D printing, like the honeycomb walls or an entire room recycled, redesigned, and built anew. Nobody's going to move into a 3D printed house soon, but, if anyone ever does, something might be learned from this experiment by the canal. 1. What have the Dutch architects begun to use the 3D printer to do according to the passage? A.To make heavy paperweights. B.To print the unusual honeycomb. C.To print an entire canal house. 2. Where did KamerMaker begin printing plastic furniture and walls several weeks ago? A.It was inside a shipping container in Amsterdam. B.It was at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam. C.It was in a canal house in Amsterdam. 3. What is the weakness of the 3D printer mentioned in the passage? A.It cannot always spread the plastic evenly. B.It needs to be shortened. C.It cannot make the ribs of the honeycomb structure. 4. How long will it take for the 3D printer to make the canal house in Amsterdam? A.A week. B.Two hours. C.Less than 3 years. 5. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage? A.This canal house is being built in the public eye. B.The top floors of the canal house will be more decorated. C.Someone is going to move into this canal house soon.

123. 阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容进行选择。 Can trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell—a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty. Communication, of course, doesn't need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn't trees have ways of sending message? 1. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that . A.are lying on the ground B.have an unpleasant taste C.bees don't like 2.The willow tree described in the passage protected itself by . A.growing more branches B.communicating with birds and bees C.changing its leaf chemistry 3.According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by . A.waving its branches B.giving off a special smell C.dropping its leaves 4. According to this passage, bees communicate by . A.making special movement B.touching one another C.smelling one another 5.The author believes that the incident described in the passage . A.cannot be taken seriously B.should no longer be permitted C.seems completely reasonable
