Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
The defeat of Lee Sedol, the world's strongest Go (圍棋) player, by a Google artificial intelligence (AI) program, looks like another milestone towards a world where computers can do almost anything a human can. It is not. There are uncountable things that only a human can do, and that no computer seems close to. The problem is that the purely human things are not economically useful to anyone. The things that computers can be taught to do are by contrast economically fantastic. But even the most powerful programs are not human, just as a shovel (鏟車). They have no feelings. What they have is power, but this power is growing at a rate that should frighten us all.
It might be less frightening if computers were truly intelligent, but even the most powerful networks are less human than monstrous Martians (火星人). Their power will be used to make money for the firms that finance their development, and then for others quick and clever enough to take advantage of the new world. It is far more likely that they will increase inequality and still further remove the middle classes as we move towards an hourglass (以金錢來衡量的) society in which everyone is either very rich or very poor and likely indebted.
One of the ill effects of the spread of more intelligent computer networks is, at the same time, the spread of what might be called artificial stupidity. If AI is employed largely to replace unskilled labour, it is most productive when labour is kept unskilled or redefined that way. So much of the work in service industries is now simplified until it might be automated (自動化). And robots will never need pensions(養(yǎng)老金). AI is slowly reducing skilled work, like some forms of medical diagnosis (診斷), at the same time, as older doctors complain that the traditional human skills of diagnosis are falling out of medical training. The belief that everything worthwhile can be measured and then managed is far more damaging to humanity than the threat of artificial intelligence on its own.
But no victory in complicated Go games can bring us closer to truly human-like computers.

B.humans are of no practical economic values to the society
C.the power of computers is growing at a frightening rate
D.AI programs can not compare with humans economically

B.widen the gap between the rich and the poor
C.make contributions to human development
D.promote equality at work places

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）C
（2）B
（3）D
【解析】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了人工智能飛速發(fā)展可能帶來的影響。

（1）C細節(jié)推斷題。從文章第一句looks like another milestone towards a world where computers can do almost anything a human can 可以看出前面的例子是為了引出后面的觀點。所以C為正確選項。

（2）B 觀點推斷題。從此段句子It is far more likely that they will increase inequality and still further remove the middle classes as we move towards an hourglass (以金錢來衡量的) society in which everyone is either very rich or very poor and likely indebted. 中的inequality和 either….or 這個句型我們都能推測出這是加大了貧富差距。所以D為正確選項。

（3）D觀點推斷題。A樂觀的 ；B 支持的； C 懷疑的；D 慎重的。從文章最后一句But no victory in complicated Go games can bring us closer to truly human-like computers.和倒數(shù)第二段老中醫(yī)的例子說明作者認為人工智能永遠不能真正替代人類。說明作者對人工智能的未來持懷疑態(tài)度。故D正確。
