However, he does not speak French. Richards39。 impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works—real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field. The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting. Because AI can outperform humans at routine tasks—provided the task is in one field with a lot of data—it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so. But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact 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. Are you worried that these three types of jobs won39。t employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors. These jobs require passion, trust and sympathy—which AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer, or a robot to babysit their children. So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most.（1）What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?

AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can.”可知四種類型的工作完全沒有風險。首先,有創(chuàng)造性的工作。人工智能不可能像科學家,小說家和藝術家那樣進行發(fā)明創(chuàng)造。也就是作家和科學家不會被取代。排除A；再根據(jù)第四段中的“as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors.”可知需要情感的工作,例如老師,保姆和醫(yī)生也不大可能被取代,因此排除C和D。故選B。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them.” 可知作者認為在AI時代仍然會有工作,關鍵必須是對勞動力進行再培訓,這樣人們才能從事這些工作。進行培訓是為了得到專業(yè)技能,由此推斷作者會給出一直提升人們的專業(yè)技能的建議,故選D。 【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，是一篇科技類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 During this shopping season, salesmen will e up with different strategies to get your business. Many product panies use specific colors to cause positive emotions and pete for a sale. However, sight is not the only sensory (感官的) retail that panies use. Sounds and smells can also influence consumers39。 purchasing decisions. Nobel Prizewinning research shows that our sense of smell has great power to cause an emotional response. A study published earlier this year pared purchasing in a French flower shop when the smell of lavender (薰衣草) was given off and when it wasn39。t. It found that the smell increased the number of consumers39。 purchasing items and the amount of their purchases. An earlier study using Nike shoes found that consumers desired the shoes more, and were willing to pay more, when the room had a mixed smell of flowers. Realizing the subconscious impact of smell, many stores apply artificial scents (氣味) through their heating and airconditioning vents (通風口) or
