Technology, engine ring and design have advanced giving us new solutions to old problems可知,幸運(yùn)的是,事情不需要再這么有挑戰(zhàn)性了。比如,用智能電子設(shè)備調(diào)節(jié)屋內(nèi)和衣物的溫度;使用無線科技制造會(huì)自動(dòng)發(fā)熱的服飾。Experts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So doctors urge us to eat healthy foods, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. But there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile!Dr. Chockalingam says a smile may be one way to help. He tells his patients to smile 20 times an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish ... smiling for seemingly no reason. But a smile does not involve drugs. It is not invasive like a surgical operation. It is free and it has no bad side effects.根據(jù)第二段中的“When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released are more positive.”當(dāng)我們微笑時(shí),大腦的線路會(huì)發(fā)生變化。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。他說,微笑可能是幫助心臟的一種方式。s feat.C.D.D. (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Because AI can outperform humans at routine tasks—provided the task is in one field with a lot of data”可知AI可以在日常任務(wù)中outperform人類(前提是該任務(wù)在一個(gè)涉及到大量數(shù)據(jù)的領(lǐng)域中;以及“it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.”可知從技術(shù)上講,人工智能具有在未來大約15年里取代成千上萬的白領(lǐng)和藍(lán)領(lǐng)工作的能力。故選B。 It39。well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, She39。surprisingly, doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn39。 To make sure it wasn39。s possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term Mona Lisa effect just thought it was a cool name.(1)It is generally believed that the woman in the painting Mona Lisa attracts the viewers to look backB.Horstmann thinks it39。一項(xiàng)新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)這一常識(shí)是錯(cuò)誤的,研究發(fā)現(xiàn)人們有被蒙娜麗莎凝視的感覺可能是因?yàn)槿藗兛释魂P(guān)注。故選D。t just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the Mona Lisa on a puter screen.”為了確保不僅僅是他,研究人員讓24個(gè)人在電腦屏幕上觀看蒙娜麗莎 的故選C。 Actually, plant breeding has been practiced for thousands of years, since near the beginning of human civilization. It is practiced worldwide by individuals such as gardeners and farmers and by professional plant breeders employed by organizations such as government institutions, universities, cropspecific industry associations or research centers. They have crossbred plants to create the new types of plants that are, for example, bigger, stronger, or more attractive. There are many reasons for changing plants in this way. International development agencies believe that breeding new crops is important for ensuring food security by developing new varieties that are higher yielding(高產(chǎn)的), disease resistant, drought tolerant or regionally adapted to different environments and growing conditions. For example, some genetically engineered plants can live through frost or draught. As a result, famers can make more profit because fewer plants will die.s possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them.”他說,人們有被注視的欲望是可能的,所以他們認(rèn)為女人在直視他們。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。芬奇最著名的畫作中的女人,無論站在房間的哪個(gè)角落,似乎都會(huì)回頭看著觀察者,用她的眼睛跟隨他們。達(dá)s gazeD.looks at the viewers wherever they stand(2)What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect? A.fixes her eyes on the back of the viewers So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn39。 This is important for human interaction with onscreen characters. If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person onscreen is looking at him or her, you don39。s degrees off to the observer39。也就是作家和科學(xué)家不會(huì)被取代。故選A。s professional skills all the time.【答案】 (1)A(2)A(3)B(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文,人工智能有取代人類工作的潛力,但是,并非所有工作都會(huì)被人工智能取代,有四種類型的工作完全沒有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。B.C.To introduce the topic.B.four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First, there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the plex, strategic jobs—executives, diplomats, economists — go well beyond the AI limitation of singlefield and Big Data. Then there are the asyetunknown jobs that will be created by AI. In 2015, a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386, 000 words in the entire French Scrabble Dictionary in just nine weeks. However, he does not speak French.

For many, the thought of winter used to be enough to make their blood run cold. But using technology, life needn39。t have to be so challenging any more.

It means dealing with winter needn39。 to be someone — it involves embodying (體現(xiàn)) the text and language.”然而,利物浦大學(xué)教授Philip Davis對(duì)這項(xiàng)研究并不以為然。 (1)考查推理判斷。Acting is not as mysterious as people think.B. Each actor was asked to respond to different questions, based on two different premises (前提). In one, they were asked for their own perspective, while in the other, they were asked to respond as though they were either Romeo or Juliet.s head has always been something of a puzzle.
