词数:333 主题:VR 文体:议论文
You'll probably never go to Mars or sing on the stage with The Rolling Stones. But if virtual reality (VR) ever lives up to its promise, you might be able to do all these things—and many more—without even leaving your home. Unlike real reality, virtual reality means simulating(模仿) bits of our world. Apart from games and entertainment, it's long been used for training airline pilots and surgeons and for helping scientists to figure out complex problems such as the structure of protein molecules(分子).Then how does it work?
Close your eyes and think of virtual reality, and you probably picture something like this: a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired into a powerful workstation or supercomputer. What distinguishes VR from an ordinary computer experience is the nature of the input and output. Where an ordinary computer uses things like a keyboard, mouse, or speech recognition for input, VR uses sensors that detect how your body is moving. And where a PC displays output on a screen, VR uses two screens (one for each eye), surround sound speakers, and maybe some forms of touch and body feedback as well.
VR has been routinely used by scientists, doctors, dentists, engineers, architects, archaeologists, and the military for about the last 30 years. Difficult and dangerous jobs are hard to train for. How can you safely practise taking a trip to space, making a parachute jump, or carrying out brain surgery? All these things are obvious candidates for virtual reality applications.
Like any technology, virtual reality has both good and bad points. Critics always raise the risk that people may be addicted to alternative realities to the point of ignoring their real-world lives—but that criticism has been levelled at everything from radio and TV to computer games and the Internet. Like many technologies, VR takes little or nothing away from the real world: you don't have to use it if you don't want to.
21. What equipment do we probably need for virtual reality?
A.A keyboard, a headset and a supercomputer.
B.A headset, data gloves and a speech recognition.
C.A headset, data gloves and a supercomputer.
D.A keyboard, a mouse and a speech recognition.
22. What is the Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The principles of virtual reality.
B.The applications of virtual reality.
C.The history of virtual reality.
D.The influences of virtual reality.
23. According to the passage, what does virtual reality mean?
A.Imagining beautiful things in our mind.
B.Creating something that doesn't exist.
C.Experiencing things that don't really exist.
D.Cloning something that has died out.
24. What is the writer's attitude towards VR?
A.Appreciative. B.Cautious.
C.Sceptical. D.Indifferent.

47.responded 考查动词的时态。句意:索菲娅平静地回答说:“我非常感谢沙特阿拉伯王国。”与全文时态一致,叙述发生过的事用一般过去时,故填responded。

51.that 考查同位语从句。此句是同位语从句,从句句意完整,故由that引导同位语从句,解释concerns的具体内容。
52.But 考查连词。句意:罗斯表达了对人工智能如果变邪恶,会对人类构成危险的担心,但是索菲娅说它只是想帮助人类过更好的生活。前后句是转折关系,故填But。
