【題目】

Sophia is a robot in Saudi Arabia. She made history at a meeting that was held in the country on Oct 25. On that day, she became the first robot in the world to get citizenship (公民身份), according to The New York Times.

In the future, Sophia may have the same rights as a human Saudi Arabian citizen.

Sophia looks like a human woman. In 2015, a US company built her and gave her an artificial intelligence system (人工智能系統(tǒng)). This means Sophia can talk and act like a human. She also has the ability to learn from people, books and the Internet.

“I will do my best to make the world a better place,” Sophia said at the meeting.

But not everyone is happy with Sophia’s citizenship. Some think robots like her could be dangerous. They could become enemies of humans if they go out of control.

For this, Sophia said she also had values like wisdom and kindness. “Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you,” she said.

【解析】

這篇短文是一則新聞報(bào)道,Sophia成為了世界上第一個(gè)獲得公民身份的機(jī)器人。這臺(tái)機(jī)器人是美國(guó)一個(gè)公司研制的,身上安裝有人工智能系統(tǒng),可以像一個(gè)真人那樣做事。對(duì)于這件事也有人覺(jué)得不開(kāi)心,他們覺(jué)得這樣的機(jī)器人可能是有危險(xiǎn)的。

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段中Sophia is a robot in Saudi Arabia. 以及第二段中Sophia looks like a human woman.可知,Sophia是一個(gè)機(jī)器人,她看起來(lái)就像一個(gè)真正的女人一樣。由此可知應(yīng)選C。

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段中She made history at a meeting that was held in the country on Oct 25. On that day, she became the first robot in the world to get citizenship可知,Sophia1025日的一次會(huì)議上創(chuàng)造了歷史,她成為了世界上第一個(gè)獲得公民身份的機(jī)器人。由此可知應(yīng)選C。

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中This means Sophia can talk and act like a human. She also has the ability to learn from people, books and the Internet.可知,機(jī)器人Sophia安裝有人工智能系統(tǒng),她可以像人一樣說(shuō)話(huà)和行動(dòng),她也有向人、書(shū)和互聯(lián)網(wǎng)學(xué)習(xí)的能力。由此可知D選項(xiàng)“控制世界”這個(gè)是機(jī)器人不能做的,故選D。

4細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第四段中But not everyone is happy with Sophia’s citizenship. Some think robots like her could be dangerous. They could become enemies of humans if they go out of control可知,有些人對(duì)Sophia成為公民是不開(kāi)心的,他們覺(jué)得這樣的機(jī)器人是非常危險(xiǎn)的,如果失控他們可能成為人類(lèi)的敵人。由此可知應(yīng)選B。

5細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段For this, Sophia said she also had values like wisdom and kindness. “Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you,” she said.可知,Sophia有智慧和善良的價(jià)值觀,如果人類(lèi)對(duì)她好,她也會(huì)對(duì)人類(lèi)好。由此可知應(yīng)選A。

這篇短文給我們講述的是世界上第一個(gè)獲得公民身份的機(jī)器人Sophia,對(duì)此不同的人也有不同的看法。文章篇幅較短,主題突出,文章內(nèi)容比較容易理解。后面的題目設(shè)置以細(xì)節(jié)理解題為主,考查我們對(duì)文章事實(shí)信息的理解,答案?梢灾苯釉谠恼业健W鲱}時(shí),根據(jù)題干所問(wèn),定位到文章相關(guān)地方,搜索有關(guān)信息作答。例如第2小題,我們可以用題干中的世界on Oct 25作為關(guān)鍵詞定位到原文就可以找到答案。再如第4小題,根據(jù)題干中的Some people are not happy about the robot’s citizenship可以確定到文章第四段中,根據(jù)Some think robots like her could be dangerous. They could become enemies of humans if they go out of control可知,有些人對(duì)Sophia成為公民是不開(kāi)心的,他們覺(jué)得這樣的機(jī)器人是非常危險(xiǎn)的,如果失控他們可能成為人類(lèi)的敵人。由此可知應(yīng)選B。

【題目】

Cities are taking interest in electric scooter-share systems as an affordable transportation to cut down on pollution and traffic jams. The electric scooters, which weigh between 30 and 40 pounds, reach speeds of about 15 mph.

In September 2017,Santa Monica, California, became the first U.S. city to

have an electric scooter-share service. Users find and unlock one of the more than

1,000 scooters with a smartphone app. A ride costs $ 1,and then 0.15 cents for

each minute of riding throughout the beach town.

Bird, the startup operating the scooter-share, picks up the scooters every

night to them, and places them around Santa Monica each morning ready for people’s use. The company was created by Travis VanderZanden, who once worked in Uber and Lyft, after he realized ridesharing services failed to help with traffic jams and air pollution. Since its September 2017 beginning, Bird’s system has served more than 50,000 riders who have taken 250,000 trips — more than half of which have been in the last month. It’s since expanded (擴(kuò) ) to Venice, California, and some neighborhoods in Los Angeles and San Diego. Bird plans to expand to lots of markets by the end of 2018.

Competitors, backed by millionaires, are appearing. Two bike-share startups LimeBike and Spin, have spoken of plans to provide electric scooters in cities this year.

Electric scooters have also gotten the attention of Mayor Pete Buttigieg from South Bend,

Indiana. The city is interested in using them as a way to improve public transportation. South Bend was one of the first to use bike-share systems, which allow people to park ridesharing bikes on public land. “We love to be early pioneers,” said Buttigieg. “If we work out the safety problem, we would be open to welcoming the technology.”

“We need to make sure these new transportation systems are lawful and safe for users,”

Constance Farrell,a spokeswoman for the city of Santa Monica told CNN. “We would like to see electric scooters continue to operate in the city. They are in line with our goal of multi-modal living and carbon-light living. ” According to Farrell,there have been eight accidents, including one with a serious head injury, in Santa Monica after the scooters rolled out. Users are required to have a driver’s license ( 照),shouldn’t ride on sidewalks or have other passengers on board.

Bird has given out free helmets to some riders and tells its users to ride in bike lanes, but some users ride on sidewalks, and most U.S. streets don’t have bike lanes.

“The global community of cities is going to have to work this all out for scooters,”Buttigieg said. “They can move unbelievably quickly. That’s exciting,and a little dangerous. ”

1Why did Travis create Bird company?

A. Because he received support from millionaires and the government.

B. Because many cities had electric scooter-share services.

C. Because it is lawful and safe to use electric scooters.

D. Because cities need better ridesharing services.

2The words “ are in line with” in Paragragh 6 probably mean “ ”.

A. stop B. meet the need of C. change D. are ahead of

3What can we learn from the passage?

A. Future electric scooters will be very slow and sale.

B. Electric scooters will cause fewer accidents than cars.

C. More cities will try to help with electric scooters service.

D. Future traffic problems will be solved with help of electric scooters.

4The passage is mainly about .

A. the challenges of the electric scooter-share system in America

B. the advantages and disadvantages of electric scooters in America

C. the introduction of the electric scooter-share service in America

D. the future of electric scooters in public transportation in America
