解析
1. "so busy every day" 表示“每天这么忙”,符合“so+形容词+that从句”结构,此处that从句省略了“that I have no time”。
2. "so that I can make it do many things for me" 中“so that”引导目的状语从句,“make it do sth”表示“让它做某事”。
3. "clever enough to meet my needs" 运用“形容词+enough+to do sth”结构,“meet one's needs”意为“满足某人的需求”。
4. "how to help me make progress in my study" 中“how to do sth”作宾语,“make progress in”表示“在……方面取得进步”。
5. "find it much easier" 符合“find+it+形容词+to do sth”结构,“much easier”表示“容易多了”。
2. "so that I can make it do many things for me" 中“so that”引导目的状语从句,“make it do sth”表示“让它做某事”。
3. "clever enough to meet my needs" 运用“形容词+enough+to do sth”结构,“meet one's needs”意为“满足某人的需求”。
4. "how to help me make progress in my study" 中“how to do sth”作宾语,“make progress in”表示“在……方面取得进步”。
5. "find it much easier" 符合“find+it+形容词+to do sth”结构,“much easier”表示“容易多了”。
六、阅读理解
Since May 8, Boston Dynamics' dog-like robot, Spot, has been in use at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park in Singapore to help encourage social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic (新冠肺炎疫情) according to a report in the South China Morning Post.

Singapore's government is funding the experiment of the robotic dog, which will last for two weeks at the park during off-peak (非高峰的) hours.
"The robot isn't enforcing (强制). It's just giving people information and encouraging them," Boston Dynamics founder Marc Raibert told CNBC. "When Spot is patrolling (巡逻) the area, there's a park officer nearby who can do whatever enforcement he decides is suitable."
Cameras fixed on Spot will scan the surroundings and help officers work out the number of visitors in the park, but they cannot read faces and won't collect any personal information. It also carries a loudspeaker to broadcast a pre-recorded message to remind visitors of the importance of social distancing.
Without enough manpower, Singapore is turning to robotics to reduce the manpower required for park patrols and remind people about the risks they may be putting themselves and others in.
The question, however, is whether their use of Spot will be a good tool or will only attract more people to it instead.
If the two-week experiment proves successful, the government will consider using Spot at the park during peak hours. Singapore will also do studies to see if it's worth using other Spots in other parks. Already, Singapore engineers are trying to improve Spot, making it tell if people are together in a group or strangers passing on the grass.
No one knows if Spot will stay after the pandemic is gone, but one thing is for sure: the robot is the hardest-working dog in the world.

解析
1. 第一题问Spot在Bishan-Ang Mo Kio公园被使用的原因。根据文章第一段“Spot, has been in use at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park in Singapore to help encourage social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic”可知,是为了帮助鼓励社交距离。A选项“吸引游客注意”,C选项“读取和记录游客面部”,D选项“帮助收集私人信息”均不符合原文。所以选B。
2. 第二题问第四段中“they”指代什么。根据“Cameras fixed on Spot will scan the surroundings and help officers work out the number of visitors in the park, but they cannot read faces and won't collect any personal information.”可知,they指代的是cameras。A选项“游客”,B选项“陌生人”,D选项“官员”均不符合。所以选C。
3. 第三题问从最后三段能学到什么。最后三段提到实验还在进行中,如果成功会考虑在高峰时段使用,还会研究在其他公园使用Spot的价值等。B选项“Spot的使用被证明是一个好工具”,原文未提及;C选项“疫情结束后Spot会留下”,原文说“No one knows if Spot will stay after the pandemic is gone”;D选项“新加坡不再需要其他Spot”,与原文不符。所以选A。
4. 第四题问下列哪个选项是正确的。A选项“Spot吓人们在公共场合保持距离”,原文说“The robot isn't enforcing. It's just giving people information and encouraging them”;B选项“Spot在高峰时段巡逻公园两周”,原文是“during off-peak (非高峰的) hours”;C选项“Spot能区分一群人和路过的陌生人”,原文是“Already, Singapore engineers are trying to improve Spot, making it tell if people are together in a group or strangers passing on the grass.”,还没实现;D选项“附近的公园官员决定执法而不是Spot”,符合原文“When Spot is patrolling (巡逻) the area, there's a park officer nearby who can do whatever enforcement he decides is suitable.”。所以选D。
2. 第二题问第四段中“they”指代什么。根据“Cameras fixed on Spot will scan the surroundings and help officers work out the number of visitors in the park, but they cannot read faces and won't collect any personal information.”可知,they指代的是cameras。A选项“游客”,B选项“陌生人”,D选项“官员”均不符合。所以选C。
3. 第三题问从最后三段能学到什么。最后三段提到实验还在进行中,如果成功会考虑在高峰时段使用,还会研究在其他公园使用Spot的价值等。B选项“Spot的使用被证明是一个好工具”,原文未提及;C选项“疫情结束后Spot会留下”,原文说“No one knows if Spot will stay after the pandemic is gone”;D选项“新加坡不再需要其他Spot”,与原文不符。所以选A。
4. 第四题问下列哪个选项是正确的。A选项“Spot吓人们在公共场合保持距离”,原文说“The robot isn't enforcing.
