You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identifi

You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Most people who travel long distances complain of jet lag (时差). Jet lag makes business travellers less productive an

Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Ans
36、wer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Seal of ApprovalA robot around the house doesnt just have to be handy. It has to be likeable too.A When Takanori Shibata began working on robots in the early 1990s, he had something practical in mind, perhaps to help the elderly
37、 with their daily chores. But he soon realised that robots were not really able to do anything useful, so he decided to make a robot that did not even trybut that could nevertheless deliver real benefits.B The result of his labours, Paro, has been in development since 1998. It is 57cm long and looks
38、 like a baby harp seal. Thanks to an array of sub-skin sensors, it responds amiably (友好地) to stroking; and though it cannot walk, it can turn its head at the sound of a human voice and tell one voice from another. It is a comforting and gentle presence in your arms, on your lap or on a table top, wh
39、ere it gives the impression of following a conversation. The best thing about it is that it seems to be helping in the care of people with dementia (痴呆) and other health problems.C You could see Paro as a very well-designed $5,000 pet that will never turn on the person holding it, and will never be
40、hurt if its master flies into a rage. It is as happy in one lap as the next, needs no housetraining, can be easily washed and will not die. This makes it a much more practical proposition to have in a nursing home or hospital than a live pet. It is used in such homes in Japan, in parts of Europe and
41、 in America. As well as simply make people happyno mean goalit can act as a source of reassurance and calm.D People with Alzheimers often suffer from “sundowning“a distressed urge to wander that comes on towards the end of the afternoon. Mr Shibata has found that a seal in the arms tends to reduce s
42、uch wandering, which means fewer falls. Experiments in Italy, Denmark and America indicates that care homes equipped with Paro need less medication for their residents. Larger trials now under way in Australia should establish whether this and other benefits can be provided simply by a soft toy, or
43、whether Paros ability to interact with the world makes a clinical difference.E If Paro proves to be more useful than a plush (长毛绒制的) animal, there is a huge market for it, Akifumi Kitashima, who works on Japans robotics strategy at the Ministry for the Economy, Trade and Industry, points out that in
44、 2025 Japan will have 10.7m more elderly people than it did in 2005. Though Japan is ageing particularly quickly, a lot of the rest of the world is on a similar course. Some will long remain spry (敏捷的); most will eventually need care.F Looking after old people in homes might become easier with robot
45、s, be they mood enhancers like Paro or something more practical that can help careworkers lift and reposition their charges (Mr Kitashima says 70% of caters have bad backs). Yoshiyuki Sankai, perhaps Japans best-known robotics entrepreneur, has set up a company called Cyberdyne to make wearable syst
46、ems that help people Walk and lift things by adding artificial strength to their limbs.G Robots may also make it possible for old people to stay independent in their own homes for longer. Mr Angle says this is iRobots “long-term guiding star“, towards which the Roomba is a small step. Mr Gupta at the NSF thinks that general-purpose home-help robots would be a big advance which, given a push, could be achieved in a couple of decades (though that, he stresses, i
