【正文】 and Britain.C.Canada and Britain.D.France and Canada.（4）What is the text mainly about? A.A new shopping model.B.The development of future city.C.The world39。s environmental issue.D.The concerns of future shopping.【答案】 （1）A（2）C（3）D（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹美國一家公司推出一種新的零浪費購物模式。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段“The world39。s cities produce 2 billion tons of trash every year. By the year 2050 that number is expected to rise to 3 billion tons. The World Bank estimates that the largest amount of trash today, about 44 percent, is plastic. But we often have to buy packaged goods. And often that packaging is made of plastic.”可知，世界上的城市每年產(chǎn)生大量的垃圾，并且其中最大的垃圾量是塑料，結(jié)合下文可知，作者寫本段目的是為下文提出新的購物模式提供背景信息。故選A。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“Szaky said that Loop is the future of shopping. But it es from an idea of the past.”和第五段“He pared it to the milkman model of the 1950s in the United States. Back then, someone brought milk to your doorstep in glass bottles and then left with empty bottles. These could be cleaned and used again. The result is zerowaste.”可知，Loop購物模式的想法來自于過去送奶工模式，是一種可以杜絕零浪費的模式。故選C。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段“Loop is set to launch later this year in three eastern . states, and also in Paris, France and some of the surrounding area. Then Loop plans to expand to the . West Coast, Toronto, Canada and Britain by the end of this year or 2020.”可知，Loop計劃在2020年前將業(yè)務(wù)擴大到加拿大和法國。故選D。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第三段中的“A new environmentallyfriendly shopping model was recently launched at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.”及全文內(nèi)容可知，文章主要介紹美國一家公司推出一種新的零浪費購物模式。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇環(huán)保類閱讀，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，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。7．閱讀理解 Learning, Fast and Deep Over the past five years researchers in artificial intelligence have bee the rock stars of the technology world. A branch of AI known as deep learning, which uses neural(神經(jīng)的) networks to scan through large volumes of data looking for patterns, has proven so useful that skilled practitioners can mand high sixfigure salaries to build software for Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google. The standard route into these jobs has been a PhD in puter science from one of America39。s top universities. Earning one takes years and requires a personality suited to academia, which is rare among more normal folk. That is changing. Last month , a nonprofit education organization based in San Francisco, kicked off the third year of its course in deep learning. Since its foundation it has attracted more than 100, 000 students around the globe from India to Nigeria. The course and others like it, e with a simple idea: there is no need to spend years obtaining a PhD in order to practise deep learning. Creating software that learns can be taught as a craft, not as a high intellectual pursuit to be undertaken only in an ivory tower. Fast. ai39。s course can be pleted in just seven weeks. To make it accessible to anyone who wants to learn how to build AI software is the aim of Jeremy Howard, who founded with Rachel Thomas, a mathematician. He says school mathematics is sufficient. No. Greek. Letters, Mr. Howard intones, pounding the table with his fist for punctuation. Some experts worry that this will serve only to create a flood of unreliable AI systems which will be useless at best and dangerous at worst. In the earliest days of the Internet, only a select few nerds, namely puter holies with specific skills, could build applications. Not many people used them. Then the invention of the World Wide Web led to an explosion of web pages, both good and bad. But it was only by opening up to all that the Internet gave birth to online shopping, instant global munications and search. If Mr. Howard and others have their way, making the development of AI software easier will bring forth a new crop of fruit of a different kind.（1）What can we learn about deep learning?
