3."There are many ways of being smart that aren't smart like us."These are the words of Patrick Winston,a leading voice in the field of artificial intelligence.Although his idea is simple,its significance has been lost on most people thinking about the future of work.Yet this is the feature of Al that ought to preoccupy us the most.
   From the 1950s to the 1980s.it was generally thought that the best way to build systems capable of performing tasks to the level of human experts or higher was to copy the way that experts worked.But there was a problem:human experts often struggled to explain how they performed many tasks.Chess-playing was a good example.When asked to explain how they played chess well,some grandmasters appealed to"intuition"(真愛),others to"experience".Many said they did not really know at all.How could researchers build a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster if the best players themselves could not explain how they were so good?
  A turning point came in 1997.Deep Blue,IBM's supercomputer,beat Garry Kasparov,the ihen world chess champion,in a six-game match.What was most remarkable was how the system did it.Deep Blue did not share Mr Kasparov's"intuition"or"experience".It won by means of absolute processing power and massive data storage ability.
  Consider the legal world.Daniel Martin Katz,a law professor,has designed a system to predict the voting behaviour of the US Supreme Court.It can perform as well as most specialists,but it does not mirror the judgement of a human being.Instead it draws on data that capture six decades of Court behaviour.
  We see similiar developments in other parts of life.Surely,all these point to a future that is very different from the one most experts are predicting.It is often said that there are many tasks that will always require human beings to perform because machines cannot"think","reason"or"feel"like human beings.But this is to fail to grasp that tomorrow's systems will handle many tasks not by copying us but by working in entirely different,unhuman ways.The set of tasks reserved particularly for human beings is likely to be much smaller than many expect.

46.The example of chess-playing mainly shows thatC.
A.it's important for a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster
B.human experts nave various responses for their good performance
C.it's difficult to build systems by copying the way human experts work
D.the way human experts work can be of great benefit to building systems
47.According to the passage,what's the reason for Deep Blue's success over Garry?D
A.It shared Garry's intuition and experience.
B.It's designed to think like a human expert.
C.Garry was not able enough lo beat supercomputer.
D.It was equipped with a powerful data processing system.
4S.What's ihe author's purpose of writing Paragraph 4?B
A.To present more details.
B.To offer another example.
C.To give further explanation.
D.To share deeper understanding.
49.Which of the following best shows ihe structure of the passage?C
A.①②③--④⑤
B.①②--③④--⑤
C.①--②③④--⑤
D.①--②③--④⑤
50.What can we infer from the last paragraph?B
A.Systems are expected to be more humanlike.
B.More tasks are likely to be handled by systems.
C.Human beings are certain to be replaced by systems.
D.Tasks tomorrow are supposed to be more demanding.

分析 本文主要寫了建立系統(tǒng)可以幫助我們干很多的事情的.

解答 46.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)句子human experts often struggled to explain how they performed many tasks.How could researchers build a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster if the best players themselves could not explain how they were so good?人類專家經(jīng)常努力解釋他們是如何完成許多任務(wù)的.如何建立一個(gè)國際象棋博弈系統(tǒng)研究打敗大師即使最好的球員本身不能解釋他們是如何這么好,所以答案選C.
47.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)句子DIt won by means of absolute processing power and massive data storage ability.它通過絕對的處理能力和海量的數(shù)據(jù)存儲能力.所以答案選D.
48.B 考慮到法律世界,作者寫了法律教授Daniel Martin Katz設(shè)計(jì)了一個(gè)系統(tǒng)來預(yù)測美國最高法院的投票行為,可見本段是作者給出的另一個(gè)例子,所以答案選B.
49.C 本文第一段提出觀點(diǎn)There are many ways of being smart that aren't smart like us,二三四段通過舉例說明有很多的聰明的方法.最后一段We see similiar developments in other parts of life延伸到生活的其他領(lǐng)域,所以答案為C、
50.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)句子But this is to fail to grasp that tomorrow's systems will handle many tasks not by copying us but by working in entirely different,unhuman ways.但這是無法把握明天的系統(tǒng)會處理很多任務(wù)不是通過復(fù)制我們的工作方式,而是在完全不同的,非人的工作方式中,可以推斷將來有更多的任務(wù)是由系統(tǒng)處理的.所以答案選B..

點(diǎn)評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點(diǎn)理論,對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋.考生首先要仔細(xì)閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點(diǎn).

13.The role of a newspaper is to present and comment on the news.It is vital for keeping people well-informed on current affairs.In most Western countries,journalists try to shape the ideas and opinions of their readers,since in Western countries all newspapers are independent of the government.Some newspaper owners support liberal ideas including economic policies that help poor people.Other owners want policies such as lower taxes for rich people and less money to be given to poor people.You can almost judge the political ideas of a person in the West by looking at the newspaper he reads.
All newspapers report national and international news.They give the facts but also provide opinions on controversial issues in the editorials and columns of opinion.The readers of the newspaper can also comment on these editorials or articles.There are many informative articles too as well as reviews of new films and books,etc.These are very important,for if a film or book gets good reviews it will often become more successful.
All these articles require many journalists who are experts in different areas of life.All these articles come together and are checked by the chief editor of the newspaper.When he or she has made a decision on the articles,the newspaper is prepared for printing.All this work means that the journalists must work together as a team because there is a lot of pressure when you work in a newspaper office.There are constant deadlines and articles have to be fitted round advertisements,photographs and much,much more.

44.What does the underlined word"be fitted"mean?B.
A.be suitable
B.be put
C.be read
D.be measured
45.What articles comment on controversial issues?A.
A.Editorials and opinion columns.
B.News stories.
C.Some of the informative articles.
D.Jokes and humour.
46.Which is true about the journalists in Western countries?D.
A.There's no time limit for their report articles.
B.They have no right to influence the readers'opinions.
C.A newspaper can come out with just a journalist working individually.
D.Journalists must submit their articles before the due date.
47.Why are good reviews important to books?D.
A.Good reviews are excellent introduction to books.
B.Readers especially favour books with good reviews.
C.Good reviews can make readers feel relaxed and comfotable.
D.Good reviews can bring a large circulation of the books reviewed.

Forever friendshipTwenty-one years ago,my husband gave me Sam,an eight-week-old dog,to help me ease(減輕;緩解) the loss of our daughter.Later my husband and I moved from New York to New Jersey where our neighbor,whose cat had (41)A had kittens,asked us if we would like one.We were afraid that Sam would not be(42)D,but we made up our (43)A to take a kitten.

18.See a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao?Forget about placing an order,paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you.In the near future,you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting"print"on your computer.You might find it hard to believe that you could actually"print"an object like you would a picture.But it is not that hard to understand how it would work.Just as a traditional printer sprays ink onto paper line by line,modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer,from the bottom to the top,gradually building up a shape.
Instead of ink,the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic,resin(樹脂) and certain metals.The thinner each layer is-from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair-the smoother and finer the object will be.This may sound like a completely new technology,but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s.Back then,it was barely affordable for most people,so few knew about it.
Last year,though,saw a big change in the 3D printing industry-printers became much cheaper.For example,10years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost£20,000,while now they cost only about£1,000,according to the BBC.Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses,3D printing can create just about anything you can think of-flutes,bikinis,jewelry,aircraft parts and even human organs.In fact,scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer,according to Science Daily.The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.
However,as 3D printing becomes more common,it may bring about certain problems-such as piracy."Once you can download a coffee maker,or print out a new set of kitchen utensils (餐具) on your personal 3D printer,who will visit a retail store again?"an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News.Even more frightening,what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?

32.According to the article,in the future,the 3D printing technology willB.
A.enable people to make better purchases online
B.change the way we make many products
C.be applied as widely in our daily life as computers
D.shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online
33.What happened in the 3D printing industry last year?D
A.The 3D printing technology was taken out of the factory.
B.The 3D printing technology began to be used in various fields.
C.The 3D printer was used for medical treatment for the first time.
D.The 3D printer became more affordable for consumers(消費(fèi)者).
34.What is the best title of the passage?D
A.Great Demand for 3D Printers     
 B.Technology in the Future
C.Online Shopping Disappearing  
D.Printing out Everything
35.How is the last paragraph developed?A
A.By giving examples.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By analyzing the cause and effect.
D.By using figures.

19.If Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake,there would be a lot of candles.He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day,few people in the United States will give him a passing thought.It's nothing personal.Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius.In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past two decades,the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.More recently,the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries.These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art,history and philosophy(哲學(xué)).Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western philosophy.Students in the United States,at the same time,are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.
Today China attracts the West more than ever,and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
As for the old thinker,he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West,even if his birthday is.
25.The opening paragraph is mainly intended toA.
A.a(chǎn)ttract the readers'interest in the subject
B.provide some key facts about Confucius
C.show great respect for the ancient thinker
D.prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
26.We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American studentsC.
A.try to get high scores in Chinese exams
B.take an active part in Chinese competitions
C.have a great interest in studying Chinese
D.fight for a chance to learn Chinese
27.What is the best title for the passage?D
A.Forgotten Wisdom in America
B.Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
C.Chinese Culture for Westerners
D.Old Thinker with a Big Future
28.The passage is likely to appear inC.
A.a(chǎn) biography               B.a(chǎn) history paper
C.a(chǎn) newspaper               D.a(chǎn) philosophy textbook.
