【语篇词汇运用】

根据上下文语境提示，选词完成短文。

(一)智能家居的便利(Smart Home Convenience)

主题：科技改变生活应用词汇：command,switch on, efficient, available, be integrated into, secure, structure, constant

Living in a smart home has changed my daily life completely. With just a voice command, I can switch on the lights or the coffee maker. The system is designed to be highly efficient, saving both energy and time. All the devices are integrated intoa single app on my phone, which makes controlling them very easy. Moreover, the smart lock ensures that my house is always secure, even when I am away. I can check the structure of my daily energy usage through the app, which provides a constant stream of data. This technology is becoming more available to ordinary people, making our lives much more convenient.

翻译：住在智能房子里彻底改变了我的日常生活。只需一个语音指令，我就能打开灯或咖啡机。这个系统设计得非常高效，既节省能源又节省时间。所有的设备都集成在手机的一个应用程序里，这使得控制它们变得非常容易。此外，智能锁确保了我的房子总是安全的，即使我不在家。我可以通过应用程序查看我的每日用电消耗构成，它提供持续不断的数据流。这项技术正变得越来越易于获得（普及），让我们的生活更加便利。

(二)环保的紧迫性(The Urgency of Green Energy)

主题：环境保护与能源应用词汇：potential, critical, leak, relevant, in this sense, nevertheless, make a switch

Climate change is a critical issuefacing our generation. Scientists warn that if we do not take action, the damage to our ecosystem could be irreversible. Old pipelines often leak oil,causing severe pollution to the ocean. In this sense, protecting the environment is not just a choice, but a necessity. Nevertheless, many people still rely heavily on fossil fuels. We must realize the potential of renewable energy like solar and wind power. It is relevant to our future survival.It is high time that we made a switch to a greener lifestyleto protect our planet for the next generation.

翻译：气候变化是我们这一代人面临的一个关键性的问题。科学家警告说，如果我们不采取行动，对生态系统的破坏可能是不可逆转的。旧管道经常泄漏石油，对海洋造成严重污染。从这个意义上说，保护环境不仅仅是一个选择，而是一种必需。然而，许多人仍然严重依赖化石燃料。我们必须意识到太阳能和风能等可再生能源的潜力。这与我们未来的生存息息相关。是时候做出改变，转向更绿色的生活方式，为下一代保护我们的地球了。

(三)说服的艺术(The Art of Persuasion)

主题：心理与习惯养成应用词汇：persuade, routine, the instant, an instant success, have a preference for, distant 

Changing a habit is never easy. I tried to persuade my friend to change his late-night routine,but he refused at first. He had a preference for staying up lateplaying games. However, the instant he saw his poor health report, his attitude changed. He looked at me with a distant expression, realizing he needed to change. I tried to persuade him of the importance of sleep. It wasn't an instant success; it took weeks of effort. But finally, he started going to bed early and felt much better.翻译：改变一个习惯从来都不容易。我试图说服我的朋友改变他熬夜的惯例/习惯，但他起初拒绝了。他偏爱熬夜打游戏。然而，在他一看到糟糕的体检报告的那一瞬间，他的态度改变了。他用一种茫然的表情看着我，意识到他需要改变。我试图让他相信睡眠的重要性。这并非一举成功；花了几周的努力。但最终，他开始早睡，感觉好多了。

【课文改编语法填空】

In daily life, we often forget 1.to lock(lock) the door or power off televisions and computers, 2.which will bring about various troubles. Moreover, we may encounter other similar issues: water pipes will start3. leaking(leak), electric circuits will short-circuit, and even our physical health will be affected. Yet there is no need for us 4. to worry(worry) about them. In the near future, smart homes will handle all these minor problems perfectly.

A smart home is one that integrates sensors 5.into/with the structure of the building itself.  As a result, numerous household tasks that we currently finish by ourselves will be 

6. automatically(automatic) accomplished. For instance, smart home systems can regulate air conditioners and lights, 7. freeing(free) us from frequent switch operations and making our living environment more energy-saving and eco-friendly. Additionally, smart homes can conduct self-inspection to ensure all 8. facilities(facility) function normally and send you a timely warning once faults occur. Furthermore, such intelligent devices can even 9. be programmed(program)  to track people’s health conditions, offering professional suggestions on daily diets or medical treatment in time.So, in 10. a sense, smart homes enable us to live a smarter life.
