Question

【題目】 Artificial intelligence（AI）（人工智能）is the ability of a computer program or a machine. The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers "smart". John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with（提出）the name "artificial intelligence" over 60 years ago. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as people do.

An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs. They can learn, solve problems, and think logically（邏輯地）. At present, we use the term AI for successfully understanding human speech, recognizing（識別）human faces, operating self-driving cars and competing in some game systems like playing Chess. However, some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. Professor Stephen Hawking（霍金）, a famous British scientist was not for this kind of technology.

Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers（設(shè)計(jì)者）in the future. We need not only bright students, but also average（普通的）students. As for（對于）average students, if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.

Scientists hope to create creative and emotional（有感情的）AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field.

A.all problems can be solved by computers

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】D

【4】C

【5】A

【解析】

人工智能是電腦程序或者機(jī)器可以學(xué)習(xí)和思考的一種能力，這方面的研究目的在于創(chuàng)造出能學(xué)習(xí)、解決問題和思考的電腦程序。本文簡單介紹了人工智能，并表示科學(xué)家們正在這個(gè)領(lǐng)域努力研究。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Artificial intelligence（AI）（人工智能）is the ability of a computer program or a machine. The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn.”人工智能是計(jì)算機(jī)程序或機(jī)器的能力。計(jì)算機(jī)或具有人工智能的機(jī)器可以思考和學(xué)習(xí)。由此可知擁有人工智能的機(jī)器可以思考和學(xué)習(xí)。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“At present, AI can successfully understanding human speech, recognize （識別）human faces, operate self-driving cars and compete in some game systems like playing Chess.”目前，人工智能能夠成功地理解人類的語言，人臉識別，操作自動駕駛的汽車，并在一些如下棋那樣的游戲系統(tǒng)中進(jìn)行比賽。可知，人工智能不能理解人類的感受。故選D。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)原文“Some people also consider（認(rèn)為）AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly.”，意思是如果AI發(fā)展過快，人們認(rèn)為可能會是一種危險(xiǎn)，這里的“it”指前半句中的“AI”，故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中“We need not only bright students, but also average（普通的）students. As for（對于）average students, if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.”我們不僅需要聰明的學(xué)生，也需要普通的學(xué)生。至于普通的學(xué)生，如果他們有足夠的數(shù)學(xué)技能，他們也可以成為成功的人工智能設(shè)計(jì)師。此外，對于人工智能設(shè)計(jì)來說，良好的計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)知識也是必不可少的�？芍� 要學(xué)好數(shù)學(xué)與計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)。故選C。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“Scientists hope to create creative and emotional（有感情的）AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field.”科學(xué)家們希望創(chuàng)造出有創(chuàng)造力和情感的人工智能。人工智能可能理解人類的感受或創(chuàng)造藝術(shù)。許多方法和工具都試圖發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)廣闊而令人興奮的領(lǐng)域。可知，本段告訴我們“科學(xué)家的愿望”。故選A。
