Since many small businesses rely on online reviews to help grow and keep their reputation, a future
37、 where someonelike a rival or angry customercould crazily fill their page with negative reviews written by a machine is pretty worrying. And, according to the research team, the threat goes far beyond a bunch of fake reviews on Yelp. “In general the threat is bigger, ” Ben Y. Zhao, one of the author
38、s of the study, said. “I think the threat towards society is large and it really misleads users and shakes our belief in what is real and what is not.

73、ortant because it is very accurate and easy to use. In many remote places, even if doctors have microscopes and other instruments to help them make diagnoses, there may still be other problems. Many doctors, for example, dont have enough training to correctly interpret what they see. 38With Ozcans m
74、obile phone app, health workers can take a special photo of a blood sample and send it to a central computer at a hospital. The computer will then automatically interpret the photo and send a diagnosis back in a few minutes. 39His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection. A

78、精确并易于使用。这种经济又实惠的医疗工具可以在世界的任何地方使用, 可以拯救全世界数百万的生命。36. 【解析】选E。根据上文“想象一下, 你在某个偏僻的村庄, 没有医疗诊所”及下句“一旦医生找到你, 他们会给你检查并取血样, 但是直到他们把血样带回医院, 找出问题所在, 他们才能帮助你”可推断出生病了要等几天医疗队才来看病。分析选项可知E项符合题意。故选E。37. 【解析】选G。根据上文的内容“如果你生病要等好几天医生才来看病, 并把血样送医院检查才能诊断。可推断出”即使只是简单的小感染, 可能也会因为耽搁而死”, 分析选项可知G项符合题意, 故选G。38. 【解析】选A。根据上文“In m

80、要的一个原因, 这儿应当是另一个原因。分析选项可知D项(Ozcan发明重要的另一个原因是它便宜)应该是正确的。把D放入句中, 符合题意。可知此处是这一段的主题句。根据本段的内容可知“Ozcan发明的系统建立的成本相当低”。D项与本段有同义词的复现, inexpensive即为fairly low。故选D。40. 【解析】选F。根据上文Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical. Therefore, it can be effectively almost anywhere“Ozcan研制了既
81、实用又省钱的医疗工具。因此, 它几乎可以在任何地方都有效”由此可推断出这种简单成本低的工具可以在全世界上救人, 分析选项可知F项(Ozcan的简单、划算的工具可能会拯救全世界数百万的生命)符合题意, 故选F。第三部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分)第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分)阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I ride the bus to and from work as my daily routine.
