【正文】 Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(傳記片). He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street. As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯) 28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it es to spending on clothes and food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and rackets(球拍) when he plays tennis. When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break. Don39。t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting.

The selfmade billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.”世界首富比爾蓋茨似乎擁有一切，但他有一個遺憾。這位白手起家的億萬富翁說，他覺得自己不懂外語很愚蠢。是全文的主題句，可知這篇文章主要講了比爾蓋茨的遺憾，故選C。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第八段中的“but that he enjoys investing in shoes and rackets(球拍) when he plays tennis.”但他喜歡在打網(wǎng)球時，投資買鞋和球拍。由此推斷出上文的意思是他在食物和衣服上花的錢不多，故選D。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“ When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break.”當(dāng)被問及人生的教訓(xùn)時，這位億萬富翁表示，他仍在努力改掉熬夜的習(xí)慣。由此可知，比爾蓋茨的建議是避免熬夜太晚，故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“I took Latin and Greek in high school and got As and I guess it helps my vocabulary.”我在高中的時候?qū)W過拉丁語和希臘語，拿到了A，我想這對我的詞匯量有幫助。由此推斷出比爾蓋茨在高中時很擅長學(xué)習(xí)語言，故選B。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及推理判斷和主旨大意兩個題型的考查，是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，要求考生根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 Let us all raise a glass to AlphaGo and the advance of artificial intelligence. AlphaGo, DeepMind39。s Goplaying AI, just defeated the best Goplaying human, Lee Sedol. But as we drink to its success, we should also begin trying to understand what it means for the future. The number of possible moves in a game of Go is so huge that in order to win against a player like Lee. AlphaGo was designed to adopt a human—like style of gameplay by using a relatively recent developmentdeep learning. Deep learning uses large data sets, machine learning algorithms （計算程序） and deep neural networks to teach the AI how to perform a particular set of tasks. Rather than programming plex Go rules and strategies into AlphaGo DeepMind designers taught AlphaGo to play the game by feeding it data based on typical Go moves. Then, AlphaGo played against itself, tirelessly learning from its own mistakes and improving its gameplay over time. The results speak for themselves. Deep learning represents a shift in the relationship humans have with their technological creations. It results in AI that displays surprising and unpredictable behaviour. Commenting after his first loss, Lee described being shocked by an unconventional move he claimed no human would ever have made. Demis Hassabis, one of DeepMind39。s founders, echoed this ment:We39。re very pleased that AlphaGo played some quite surprising and beautiful moves. Unpredictability and surprises are—or can be—a good thing. They can indicate that a system is working well, perhaps better than the humans that came before it. Such is the case with AlphaGo. However, unpredictability also indicates a loss of human control. That Hassabis is surprised at his creation39。s behaviour suggests a lack of control in the design. And though some loss of control might be fine in the context of a game such as Go, it raises urgent questions elsewhere. How much and what kind of control should we give up to AI machines? How should we design appropriate human control into AI that requires us to give up some of that very control? Is there some AI that we should just not develop if it means any loss of human control? How much of a say should corporations, governments, experts or citizens have in these matters? These important questions, and many others like them, have emerged in response, but remain unanswered. They require human, not human like, solutions. So as we drink to the milestone in AI, let39。s also drink to the understanding that the time to answer deeply human questions about deep learning and AI is now.（1）What contributes most to the unconventional move of AlphaGo in the game? capability of selfimprovement. constant input of large data sets. installation of deep neutral networks. knowledge of Go rules and strategies.（2）A potential danger of Al is _____. loss of human control friendly relationship fierce petition lack of challenge（3）How should we deal with the unpredictability of AI? should stop AI machines
