【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 y that when the Al news anchor reads, the micro electric motors behind her face move to make her expressions seem more human. Yet we need a thorough knowledge of deep leaning technology to make a robot imitate a person39。s voice. The developer needs to collect tens of thousands of pieces of pronunciations, input them into the machine and match them with the text or the Al to lean and read. The process for imitating facial movements is similar. The developer has to analyse the movements of the 53 muscles in the human face, make a model set from the collected data for the AI news anchor to lean, and imitate the movements of facial muscles via programs Both the technologies used to make Xin39。s performance impressive are mature. The real difficulty lies in the third the technology to match the pronunciations with facial movements so that Xin expressions vary according to the content of the news report. In fact, Xins expressions don39。t always change according to the content. As a result, her expressions look anything but human. Actually. AI is still no match for human qualities.（1）What does the underlined word reluctant in the first paragraph mean? A.Delighted.B.Unwilling.C.Confused.D.Optimistic.（2）What can we infer about previous news robots? A.They read news without expressions.B.They looked like a human beingC.They could interview sports starsD.They could interact with audience.（3）What do we know about the third technology? A.This technology is very perfect so farB.This technology is quite popular nowC.This technology remains at the theoretical stageD.This technology is far from mature.（4）From the last paragraph, we can draw a conclusion that____. A.human news anchors should learn from AT anchors to save their jobsB.Al anchors perform much better than human news anchors at presentC.Al news anchors won39。t replace human news anchors in the near futureD.Xin Xiaomeng s expressions vary so naturally that they are true to life【答案】 （1）B（2）A（3）D（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，上周日，新華社新聞主播辛?xí)悦瘸蔀槭澜缟系谝晃慌匀斯ぶ悄苄侣勚鞑?，作者介紹了人工智能背后的技術(shù)，并指出在不久的將來，人工智能新聞主播不會取代人類新聞主播。 （1）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第一段中的Xin Xiaomeng began working as the world39。s first female artificial(人工的) intelligence news anchor at Xinhua News Agency on Sunday及第二段中的That39。s why many news anchors were worried: Will AI replace us in the near future?可知，擔(dān)心將來自己的工作會被人工智能取代的新聞主播一定不愿意透露下面這個消息：上周日，新華社新聞主播辛?xí)悦瘸蔀槭澜缟系谝晃慌匀斯ぶ悄苄侣勚鞑?，由此可知畫線詞詞義為不愿意的，故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的Unlike previous news robots though, Xin does not read news like a cold machine。 she reads it almost like a human being. The muscles on her face stretch and relaxand her reactions changeas she continues reading.可知，與以前的機(jī)器人主播不同的是，辛?xí)悦茸x起來不像一臺冷冰冰的機(jī)器，就像是一個活生生的人，她讀新聞的時候臉上的肌肉能夠伸展和放松，面部反應(yīng)也發(fā)生了變化，由此可知，以前的機(jī)器人主播讀新聞時面無表情，故選A。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的The real difficulty lies in the third the technology to match the pronunciations with facial movements so that Xin expressions vary according to the content of the news report. In fact, Xins expressions don39。 t always change according to the content. As a result, her expressions look anything but human.可知，真正的難點在于第三技術(shù)，使辛?xí)悦鹊拿娌勘砬楦鶕?jù)新聞報道的內(nèi)容而變化，事實上，辛?xí)悦鹊谋砬椴豢偸请S著內(nèi)容而變化，她的表情一點也不像人類，由此可知，第三技術(shù)還遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠成熟，故選D。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的Actually. AI is still no match for human qualities.可知，人工智能仍無法與人類素質(zhì)相匹敵，由此可知，在不久的將來，人工智能新聞主播不會取代人類新聞主播，故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及詞義猜測和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．犇犇閱讀理解 Threequarters of the world39。s coffee farms destroy forest habitat to grow coffee in the sun and typically use harmful pesticides (殺蟲劑) and chemicals that poison the environment. When forests disappear, migratory (遷徙的) songbirds disappear, too. In order to deal with severe population and habitat loss, Smithsonian scientists created the Bird Friendly certification. Bird Friendly coffees are shadegrown, meaning the coffee is planted under trees, rather than on the land that has been cleared of all other plants. Coffee experts say shadegrown coffees taste better, because the beans ripen slower than coffee grown in the full sun, resulting in a richer, more plex flavor. Bird Friendly certified coffees grow under biodiverse shade that provides habitat for migratory songbirds and other wildlife, stores carbon and fights climate change. Bird Friendly coffees are also certified organic, meaning they are grown without pesticides, which is better for people and for the planet. Bird Friendly producers can also earn more for their crops. The wood and fruit trees on shade coffee farms provide farmers with additional ine. Every cup of Bird Friendly coffee purchased rewards these farmers with a little more money for being good stewards of the environment and encourages them to continue conserving Bird Friendly habitat. Buying Bird Friendly supports the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center39。s conservation research aimed at understanding and protecting your feathered friends. You can purchase Bird Friendly certified coffees around the world and protect wildlife and habitat with every cup. Find a store or cafe near you, or better yet, have it shipped to your door when you order online.（1）What is the present situation of coffee farms? A.One fourth of them have destroyed forest habitat for birds.B.Pesticides and chemicals used on them poisoned many birds.C.Farmers have been aware of environment protection.D.Scientists pay attention to them and have e up with an idea.（2）What39。s a characteristic of Bird Friendly coffees? A.They may have a better taste.B.They have a strange flavor.C.They take less time to ripen.D.They are grown on unpolluted land.（3）How can Bird Friendly farmers earn more money? A.By charging consumers more money.B.16
