She sprang up when she saw me as if to get out of my way.(有一天,我
18、在当地一家商店购物,看到一位印度女士蹲在地板上,寻找底层货架上的某种产品。她看到我就跳了起来,好像要躲开我似的)可知当那位女士在商店里看到作者时,她的反应是她站起来想给她让路。故选C。【2题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“But I tried to understand why they were feeling that way and let it go. The world would be a better place if we all acted kindly toward each other. Those who are rude may have bad karma comi
19、ng after them eventually. I added.(但我试图理解他们为什么会有这种感觉,然后放手。如果我们都对彼此友善,世界会更美好粗鲁的人最终可能会有恶报。我补充道)可知作者是善良且善解人意的。A. Kind and understanding善良和理解。B. Courageous and warmhearted勇敢和热心的。C.

21、 who are rude may have bad karma coming after them eventually. I added.(我还向她解释说我是一名退休护士,能够直接听懂她说的一些话。有时候病人,家人,或者医生可能会很粗鲁或者刻薄。但我试着去理解他们为什么会有那种感觉,然后就放手了。如果我们都对彼此友善,世界会变得更美好。那些粗鲁的人最终可能会遭到恶报。我加了一句)可知作者想传达的主要信息是我们应该以我们想被对待的方式对待别人。故选D。BNews anchors(主播) must have been reluctant to read out the following ne
22、ws: Xin Xiaomeng began working as the worlds first female artificial(人工的) intelligence news anchor at Xinhua News Agency on Sunday, three months after a male robot joined the profession.Unlike previous news robots though, Xin does not read news like a cold machine; she reads it almost like a human b
23、eing. The muscles on her face stretch and relax-and her reactions change-as she continues reading. Thats why many news anchors were worried: Will AI replace us in the near future?To find the answer, we have to analyse the technologies that support Xin at her job. Three key technologies are used to s
24、upport Xin. First, samples of human voices are collected and synthesized (合成). This is followed by the collection and synthesis of human muscle movement samples. And third the voices and movements are married in a way that when the Al news anchor reads, the micro -electric motors behind her face mov
25、e to make her expressions seem more human.Yet we need a thorough knowledge of deep leaning technology to make a robot imitate a persons voice. The developer needs to collect tens of thousands of pieces of pronunciations, input them Into the machine and match them with the text or the Al to lean and
26、read. The process for imitating facial movements is similar. The developer has to analyse the movements of the 53 muscles in the human face, make a model set from the collected data for the AI news anchor to lean, and imitate the movements of facial muscles via programsBoth the technologies used to
27、make Xins performance impressive are mature. The real difficulty lies in the third -the technology to match the pronunciations with facial movements so that Xin expressions vary according to the content of the news report. In fact, Xins expressions don t always change according to the content. As a
28、result, her expressions look anything but human. Actually. AI is still no match for human qualities.4. What does the underlined word reluctant in the first paragraph mean?A. Delighted.B. Unwilling.C. Confused.D. Optimistic.5. What can we infer about previous news robots?A. They read news without exp
29、ressions.B. They looked like a human beingC. They could interview sports starsD. They could interact with audience.6. What do we know about the third technology?A. This technology is very perfect so farB. This technology is quite popular nowC. This technology remains at the theoretical stageD. This
30、technology is far from mature.7. From the last paragraph, we can draw a conclusion that_.A. human news anchors should learn from AT anchors to save their jobsB. Al anchors perform much better than human news anchors at presentC. Al news anchors won t replace human news anchors in the near futureD Xi
31、n Xiaomeng s expressions vary so naturally that they are true to life【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,上周日,新华社新闻主播辛晓萌成为世界上第一位女性人工智能新闻主播,本文介绍了人工智能背后的技术,并指出在不久的将来,人工智能新闻主播不会取代人类新闻主播。【4题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“Xin Xiaomeng began working as the worlds first female artificial(人工的) intelligence news anchor
32、 at Xinhua News Agency on Sunday”及第二段中的“Thats why many news anchors were worried: Will AI replace us in the near future?”可知,担心将来自己的工作会被人工智能取代的新闻主播一定不愿意透露下面这个消息:上周日,新华社新闻主播辛晓萌成为世界上第一位女性人工智能新闻主播,由此可知画线词词义为“不愿意的”,故B项正确。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Unlike previous news robots though, Xin does not read news like
33、a cold machine; she reads it almost like a human being. The muscles on her face stretch and relax-and her reactions change-as she continues reading.”可知,与以前的机器人主播不同的是,辛晓萌读起来不像一台冷冰冰的机器,就像是一个活生生的人,她读新闻的时候脸上的肌肉能够伸展和放松,面部反应也发生了变化,由此可知,以前的机器人主播读新闻时面无表情,故A项正确。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The real difficulty lies i
34、n the third -the technology to match the pronunciations with facial movements so that Xin expressions vary according to the content of the news report. In fact, Xins expressions don t always change according to the content. As a result, her expressions look anything but human.”可知,真正的难点在于第三技术,使辛晓萌的面部
35、表情根据新闻报道的内容而变化,事实上,辛晓萌的表情不总是随着内容而变化,她的表情一点也不像人类,由此可知,第三技术还远远不够成熟,故D项正确。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Actually. AI is still no match for human qualities.”可知,人工智能仍无法与人类素质相匹敌,由此可知,在不久的将来,人工智能新闻主播不会取代人类新闻主播,故C项正确。【点睛】词义猜测题的难度较大,理解画线词的上下文是关键,例如本篇第1题,根据画线词后的“Xin Xiaomeng began working as the worlds first female ar
36、tificial(人工的) intelligence news anchor at Xinhua News Agency on Sunday”,再结合第二段中的“Thats why many news anchors were worried: Will AI replace us in the near future?”可知,人类新闻主播担心将来自己的工作会被人工智能取代,所以他们一定不愿意透露上周日,新华社新闻主播辛晓萌成为世界上第一位女性人工智能新闻主播这个消息,由此可知画线词词义为“不愿意的”。CWhy can people speaking the same language hav
37、e such different accents? The short answer: new accents begin to develop when isolated(隔绝的) groups of speakers start making nearly unnoticeable changes to the way they pronounce words.“Accent development is the first step in language change. Fifteen hundred years ago, languages like English, Dutch a
38、nd Swedish were actually all dialects of the same language, but of course then they changed overtime.” Jonathan Harrington, a linguist(语言学家) in University of Munich, is interested in how accents first get started. But because of global communication, most communities are no longer linguistically iso
39、lated, and recording equipment didnt exist back when more of them were.So how to capture the early stages of accent formation today? Harrington and his team turned to members of the British Antarctic Survey, who speak with a variety of English accents. “When you are in Antarctica during the winter p
40、eriod, there is no way in and no way out. So they were isolated together and they had to communicate and cooperate with each other.” Harringtons team recorded the winterers reciting a list of words before they left for Antarctica. Then, while there, the winterers recorded themselves saying the same
41、words four more times. The linguists then analyzed the recordings.Even during their short time in Antarctica, the way the winterers produced certain vowels (元音) began to converge. For example, at the beginning of the study, some people produced the /u/ in “food” at the front of the mouth while other
42、s used the back of the mouth. But they began to sound more similar overtime.Harrington says the research isnt just relevant for understanding Earths colonial past. He thinks theres every reason to expect long isolation will cause astronauts on Mars missions to end up with an outofthis world accent.8
43、. What makes it hard to know how accents first started?A. The lack of recordings in the past.B. The isolation of most communities.C. The fast development of new accents.D. The big number of dialects of the same language.9. What does the underlined word “converge” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Become simple
44、r.B. Become similar.C. Get worse.D. Get improved.10. What may happen to astronauts returning from the Mars after a long stay there?A. They feel much lonelier than ever before.B. They cant understand their mother tongue.C. They speak with accents quite different from the locals.D. They dont have any
45、difficulty adjusting to the life on Earth.11. Where is text probably from?A. A guide book.B. A news report.C. A magazine.D. A history book.【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了因为过去没有录音让人很难知道口音是怎么开始的,但是长期与世隔绝将导致说话的口音与当地人大不相同。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段University of Munichlinguist Jonathan Harrington. Hes
46、interested in how accents first get started. But because of global communication, most communities are no longer linguistically isolated, and audio recording equipment didnt exist back when more of them were. 慕尼黑大学语言学家乔纳森哈林顿说.他对口音是如何开始的很感兴趣.但由于全球交流,大多数社区在语言上不再是孤立的,录音设备在更多的时候并不存在。以及第三段So how to captu
47、re the early stages of accent formation today?那么如何捕捉口音形成的早期阶段呢?可知让人很难知道口音是怎么开始的是因为过去没有录音。故选A。【9题详解】词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子Even during their short time in Antarctica, the way the winterers produced certain vowels (元音) began to converge. For example, at the beginning of the study, some people produced the /u
48、/ in food at the front of the mouth while others used the back of the mouth.即使在南极洲的短暂时间里,越冬者发出某些元音的方式,也开始趋于一致。例如,在研究开始时,一些人在口腔前部产生/u/in food ,而另一些人在口腔后部产生。可知划线词的意思是变得相似。A. Become simpler变得更简单;B. Become similar变得相似;C. Get worse变得更糟;D. Get improved得到改善。故选B。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段Harrington says the resear
49、ch isnt just relevant for understanding Earths colonial past. He thinks theres every reason to expect long isolation will cause astronauts on Mars missions to end up with an outofthis world accent.哈林顿说,这项研究不仅与了解地球的殖民历史有关,他认为完全有理由预计,长期与世隔绝将导致执行火星任务的宇航员最终会带着一种异国口音。可知从火星返回的宇航员在那里呆了很长时间后他们说话的口音与当地人大不相同。
50、故选C。【11题详解】推理判断题。阅读全文并结合第一段The short answer: new accents begin to develop when isolated(隔绝的) groups of speakers start making nearly unnoticeable changes to the way they pronounce words.可知,本文主要讲述了因为过去没有录音让人很难知道口音是怎么开始的,但是长期与世隔绝将导致说话的口音与当地人大不相同;这是一种社会现象,不可能来自导游书,新闻报道以及历史书,只可能来自于一本杂志。故选C。DThe word “pro
51、activity” is fairly common in management literature, but you wont find it in the dictionary. It means that as a human being you take responsibility for your own life.Look at the word responsibility: ability to choose your response, response-ability. Effective people are proactive because they take r
52、esponsibility. Their behavior is a product of their own decisions, based on values, rather than being a product of their own conditions, based on feelings.For instance, you are planning a picnic with your family. Youre excited. You have all the preparations. Youve decided where to go, and then it be
53、comes stormy, killing your plan. Proactive people carry weather within them. They realize what their purpose really was, and they creatively have a picnic elsewhere even if its in their own basement with some special games, and make the best of that situation. The opposite of being proactive is to b
54、e reactive. Reactive people would say, “Whats the use?” “We cant do anything,” “Oh this is so upsetting after all of our preparations and arrangements.” They try to persuade the people around them and usually the picnic will be cancelled.Being proactive is really just being true to your human nature
55、. Your basic nature is to act, and not to be acted upon. Thats true, despite widely accepted theories of determinism used to explain human nature. Determinism says that you dont really choose anything and that what you call choices are nothing more than automatic responses to outside conditions.The
56、language of reactive people is like: “I cant.” “Dont have time.” “I have to.” “I must.” The whole spirit of that language is the transfer of responsibility. They think things are determined by their environment, or by their conditions, or by their conditioning or their genetic makeup. Psychologicall
57、y, people who believe they are determined will produce the evidence to support the belief, and they increasingly feel victimized and out of control. Theyre not in charge of their life at all.On the contrary, a proactive person exercises free will, the freedom to choose the response that best applies
58、 to his values. In that way, he gains control over the circumstances, rather than being controlled by them.12. When a picnic plan is threatened by a sudden storm, reactive people will probably .A. have the picnic as plannedB. make the best of the picnicC. complain and give up the picnicD. find somew
59、here else for the picnic13. According to the passage, a proactive persons behavior can result from .A. the environmentB. an inner beliefC. the genetic makeupD. a temporary feeling14. People carrying weather within them usually .A. manage to improve the weatherB. give in to the weather passivelyC. st
60、ress the influence of the weatherD. find a solution to the weather problems15. It can be concluded from the passage that determinists (宿命论者)_.A. are in charge of themselvesB. accept things passivelyC. are similar to proactive peopleD. respond to outside conditions actively【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
61、【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了积极和消极人的区别,例如在遭遇天气不好野餐计划搁浅的时候,积极的人会想办法进行野餐,而消极的人会直接取消计划。积极的人行为动力来自内心,而消极的人去由周围的环境左右其决定。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中The opposite of being proactive is to be reactive. Reactive people would say, “Whats the use?” “We cant do anything,” “Oh this is so upsetting after all of our preparations and
62、 arrangements.” They try to persuade the people around them and usually the picnic will be cancelled.可知主动的反义词是被动。消极的人会说:“有什么用?”“我们什么也做不了”,“哦,在我们做了所有的准备和安排之后,这太令人沮丧了。”他们试图说服周围的人,野餐通常会被取消。由此可知,当野餐计划受到突如其来的风暴的威胁时,消极的人可能会抱怨并放弃野餐。故选C。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段Being proactive is really just being true to your hum
63、an nature. You basic nature is to act, and not to be acted upon.可知积极主动是按照天性来做最真正的自己。人的本性是行动,而不是任人摆布。由此可知,一个积极的人,他的行动源于他的内心和本性。故选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中Proactive people carry weather within them. They realize what their purpose really was, and they creatively have a picnic elsewhere even if its in thei
64、r own basement with some special games, and make the best of that situation.可知积极主动的人会把天气带在身上。他们意识到自己真正的目的是什么,他们创造性地在其他地方野餐,即使是在自己的地下室,有一些特殊的游戏,并充分利用这种情况。由此可知,当环境不符合计划的时候,积极的人会创造性的想出解决方法,达到目的。故选D。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中They think things are determined by their environment, or by their conditions, or by
65、 their conditioning or their genetic makeup.(他们认为事情是由他们的环境,或是他们的条件,或是由他们的条件或基因构成决定的)以及第三段中The opposite of being proactive is to be reactive. Reactive people would say, “Whats the use?” “We cant do anything,” “Oh this is so upsetting after all of our preparations and arrangements.” They try to persua
66、de the people around them and usually the picnic will be cancelled.(主动的反义词是被动。消极的人会说:“有什么用?”“我们什么也做不了”,“哦,在我们做了所有的准备和安排之后,这太令人沮丧了。”他们试图说服周围的人,野餐通常会被取消)由此可知,消极的人在面对计划不得不改变时,他们会抱怨但接受现实,而不会想办法去创造机会实现目标。即宿命论者是被动地接受事物的。故选B。第二节(共5个小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。Say Goodbye to
