27、xteenth and seventeenth centuries. Readers were “listeners attentive to a reading voice,” and “the text addressed to the ear as much as to the eye.” The significance of reading aloud continued well into the nineteenth century.Using Charles Dickenss nineteenth century as a point of departure, it woul

28、d be useful to look at the familial and social uses of reading aloud and reflect on the functional change of the practice. Dickens habitually read his work to a domestic audience or friends. In his later years he also read to a broader public crowd. Chapters of reading aloud also abound in Dickenss

29、own literary works. More importantly, he took into consideration the Victorian practice when composing his prose, so much so that his writing is meant to be heard, not only read on the page.Performing a literary text orally in a Victorian family is well documented. Apart from promoting a pleasant fa

30、mily relationship, reading aloud was also a means of protecting young people from the danger of solitary（孤独的）reading. Reading aloud was a tool for parental guidance. By means of reading aloud, parents could also introduce literature to their children, and as such the practice combined leisure and mo

31、re serious purposes such as religious cultivation in the youths. Within the family, it was commonplace for the father to read aloud. Dickens read to his children: one of his surviving and often-reprinted photographs features him posing on a chair, reading to his two daughters.Reading aloud in the ni

32、neteenth century was as much a class phenomenon as a family affair, which points to a widespread belief that Victorian readership primarily meant a middle-class readership. Those who fell outside this group tended to be overlooked by Victorian publishers. Despite this, Dickens, with his publishers C

33、hapman and Hall, managed to distribute literary reading materials to people from different social classes by reducing the price of novels. This was also made possible with the technological and mechanical advances in printing and the spread of railway networks at the time.Since the literacy level of

34、 this section of the population was still low before school attendance was made compulsory in 1650 by the Education Act a considerable number of people from lower classes would listen to recitals of texts. Dickenss readers, who were from such social backgrounds, might have heard Dickens in this mann

35、er. Several biographers of Dickens also draw attention to the fact that it was typical for his texts to be read aloud in Victorian England, and thus literacy was not an obstacle for reading Dickens. Reading was no longer a chiefly closeted form of entertainment practiced by the middle class at home.

36、A working class home was in many ways not convenient for reading: there were too many distractions, the lighting was bad, and the home was also often half a workhouse. As a result, the Victorians from the non-middle classes tended to find relaxation outside the home such as in parks and squares, whi

37、ch were ideal places for the public to go while away their limited leisure time. Reading aloud, in particular public reading, to some extent blurred the distinctions between classes. The Victorian middle class defined its identity through differences with other classes. Dickenss popularity among rea

38、ders from the non-middle classes contributed to the creation of a new class of readers who read through listening.Different readers of Dickens were not reading solitarily and “jealously,” to use Walter Benjamins term. Instead, they often enjoyed a more communal experience, an experience that is gene

39、rally lacking in todays world. Modern audiobooks can be considered a contemporary version of the practice. However, while the twentieth and twentieth-first-century trend for individuals to listen to audiobooks keeps some characteristics of traditional reading aloudsuch as “listeners attentive to a r

40、eading voice” and the ear being the focusit is a far more solitary activity.1、What does the author want to convey in Paragraph 1?AThe history of reading aloud.BThe significance of reading aloud.CThe development of reading practice.DThe roles of readers in reading practice.2、How did the practice of r

41、eading aloud influence Dickenss works?AHe started to write for a broader public crowd.BHe included more readable contents in his novels.CScenes of reading aloud became common in his works.DHis works were intended to be both heard and read.3、How many benefits did reading aloud bring to a Victorian fa

But what if these doctors could pool their knowledge and experience together and create a surgical standard of care, to be

45、carried out by machines?Thats the idea behind surgical robots, which may soon perform most surgeries, from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart procedures. Many of these operations are, in fact, already completed with the assistance of robots. But a recent test suggests that robots in the opera

46、ting room may soon go a step further, performing on soft tissue completely on their own, from start to finish.The Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot（STAR）, successfully completed surgeries on pigs. Were the first group to develop autonomous robotic surgery with soft-tissue surgery, and when compared to s

47、tandard operation, its better, says Peter Kim, professor of surgery. The idea is not to replace surgeons；it will make the surgeons better and make the procedures safer. A recent Mayo Clinic study found that major surgical errors-including operating on the wrong site or side of the body, or even leav

48、ing tools or objects inside the patient-occur every one out of 22, 000 procedures. Thats rare, but robots like STAR would aim to lower the number even further.In the da Vinci surgical system, surgeons place their arms inside instruments and use their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on

49、 the operating table from afar. The robots every major move is controlled by surgeons, and thus its results may vary based on the surgeons training or experience.STAR, on the other hand, is entirely autonomous. Its not only able to work on its own and perform surgeries with a more flexible hand, but

50、 its able to react to the unexpected incidents. Cutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing, but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complex. STAR reacts to a changing environment, similar to how self-driving cars are programmed to not only drive on the highway, but also react to anothe

51、r driver making a mistake and getting in your way.1、The underlined word infallible in Paragraph 1probably means _ .Aquite smart Breally creativeCrather responsible Dalways right2、We can learn from the passage that STAR _ .Acan perform the operation on its ownBhas been widely used in the operating ro

52、omCcan make surgeries much fasterDwill take the place of surgeons3、In the da Vinci surgical system, _ .Arobots are trained from afar Brobots always make mistakesCsurgery results depend on surgeons Dsurgeons have trouble controlling robots4、In the last paragraph, the author mentions self-driving cars

53、 in order to show _ .Ahow smart an autonomous robot can beBhow difficult self-driving on the highway isChow bad getting in another drivers way might beDhow dangerous operating on people is.25（10分） A new study has shown how computers and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye mo

54、vements to read human personalities.The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated（复杂的）artificial intelligence algorithms（算法）may soon have the ability to peer into your soul. That is the result of a new study on the connection betw

55、een eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and Published in the scientific Journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality, wrote the researchers, led by University of

56、South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team follows 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determines their personality traits（特点）with well-established questionnaires for determining personality type, according to a summary of the study pub

57、lished by the site Science Daily.The researchers fed the data into their Al algorithms and found that computers running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a persons major personality traits, such as neuroticism, extraversion（外向），agreeableness, conscienti

58、ousness, as well as perceptual（感知的）curiosity, the scientists wrote.The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their computers and other high-tech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines, Loetscher said.People are always l

59、ooking for improved, personalized services. Todays robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to non-verbal information, Loetscher said in a statement quoted by Indian Express. This research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers so that they can become more nat

60、ural, and better at interpreting human social signals.The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britains Daily Mail newspaper.1、What do the underlined words peer into in Paragraph
