The artificial intelligence (AI) system, developed at University College London and set to be piloted in NHS hospitals later this year, will screen at risk patients so doctors can take early action to prevent death or serious illness. Prof Young, a consultant surgeon at Southend University Hospital, said: I am so excited about this form of technology. Instead of people getting sick or dying because they are not picked up in time, this will allow us to step in earlier which will save lives and an enormous amount of money. I think the potential of AI in healthcare like this is as big as the Industrial Revolution was—and signals a pletely new example in the way we manage healthcare. The technology is the brainchild of Dr Vishal Nangalia, a consultant at the Royal Free Hospital in London. He used AI to analyse a billion stored blood samples from 20 different UK hospital trusts dating back up to 12 years. Computers assess blood test results by picking up subtle changes in red and white blood cells, suggesting a patient is going downhill. He found the technique forecast outes of patients with kidney problems with up to 95 per cent accuracy. Traditional methods highlighting serious patient concerns picked up as few as 16 percent of patients who went on to die. This gives us the opportunity not only to save lives but to prevent serious illness, making the health service not only safer but more efficient. Prof Young said, Instead of waiting for people to get worse, we will be able to treat them earlier.（1）What does the underlined phrase screen in Paragraph2 mean? A.fortB.treatC.spotD.nurse（2）How do superputers help save lives? A.By storing blood samples.B.By analyzing patients39。 cases.C.By observing changes in blood cells.D.By assisting doctors with their operations.（3）Why did Professor Young mention the Industrial Revolution? A.To show the influence of AI.B.To stress the importance of health care.C.To introduce the topic of superputers.D.To present the achievement he has acplished.（4）What do we know about the new technology? A.It helps patients recover earlier.B.It has helped save thousands of lives.C.It will promote the health service greatly.D.It is intended for patients with kidney diseases.【答案】 （1）C（2）C（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹超級計算機能夠分析血樣并預(yù)測哪些病人可能會患上重病，每年可以挽救數(shù)萬人的生命。 （1）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第二段中的“so doctors can take early action to prevent death or serious illness. ”以便醫(yī)生能夠及早采取行動，預(yù)防死亡或嚴重疾病，可以猜測出，人工智能將用于對高危病人進行“篩查”。此處screen意為“篩查”。故選C。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“Computers assess blood test results by picking up subtle changes in red and white blood cells, suggesting a patient is going downhill.”可知，計算機通過檢測紅細胞和白細胞的細微變化來評估血液檢測結(jié)果。故選C。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的I think the potential of AI in healthcare like this is as big as the Industrial Revolution was—and signals a pletely new example in the way we manage healthcare. 楊教授認為，人工智能在醫(yī)療保健領(lǐng)域的潛力與工業(yè)革命一樣大，以此類比，說明人工智能在醫(yī)療領(lǐng)域的影響力。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的Instead of waiting for people to get worse, we will be able to treat them earlier. 可知，這項技術(shù)將能夠更早地治療患者，而不是坐等病情惡化，從而推斷，人工智能這一科技幫助醫(yī)生對疾病診療早預(yù)判，早介入，從而幫助挽救大量生命，將大大促進衛(wèi)生服務(wù)。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。2．犇犇閱讀下面文章，然后從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出每個問題的最佳選項。 My two and fouryearold boys love to win, whether they39。re racing their bikes down the sidewalk or just finishing their snacks. It39。s true that those with high status, from world leaders and prize winners to athletes and movie stars, are people we like and respect. A recent study published in Nature Human Behaviour showed that we seem to have an innate (天生的) preference for highranking peoples—but only if those people aren39。t hurtful toward others. Researchers showed toddlers (aged 21 to 31 months) a scene where two puppets (木偶) approached one another from opposite sides of a stage and one bowed to let the other pass first. Asked which puppet they liked better, 18 of the 21 toddlers in the experiment reached for the puppet who had been allowed to pass. Because respect from others is a marker of status, this suggests that children have a preference for those with a higher status—even before age three. However, the results were quite different when two puppets approached one another and one used force to knock the other down before continuing to the other side. In this case, 18 of the 21 toddlers reached for the one who was knocked down. As the researchers concluded, When approaching others, very young children care not only who wins, but also how. The previous experiment has shown that toddlers know about social status, but this experiment went one step further by proving they have an obvious preference for high status. Since the participants were so young, this might even be an innate human preference. In a word, this new research suggests that young children appreciate people who do well while at the same time doing good to others. So, when my fouryearold thinks that he has to get his shoes on first, I39。ll keep reminding him that helping his brother so they both finish faster is what winning is all about.（1）What do we tend to do according to the first paragraph? challenges all the time. highranking people. advantage of high status. others with offensive words.（2）Why did toddlers prefer the puppet allowed to pass? looked adorable. behaved smartly. seemed polite. was respected.（3）What can we infer from the latter study? people are better loved by toddlers. naturally dislike unkind behavior. care
