Now the silver haired 78year old has realized he would like his loved ones to have access to those stories, even when he is no longer alive to share them. Kaplan has agreed to bee AndyBot a virtual person who will be: immortalized(T F5)in the cloud for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years If all goes according to plan future generations will be able to interact with him using voice puting platforms of mobile devices, asking him questions, letting him tell stories and drawing upon a lifetime39。s worth of advice long after his physical body is gone. Someday, Kaplan, who playfully refers to himself as a pig, may be remembered as one of the world39。s first digital humans. For decades, Silicon Valley futurists have sought to free humanity from the life cycle. Today, a new generation of panies is selling some approximation(近似) of virtual immortality, which gives people the opportunity to preserve one39。s legacy(遺產(chǎn)) online forever. Kaplan is eager to bee one of the world39。s first virtual residents, partly because he considers the effort a way to extend closed family bonds over multiple generations. If technology succeeds in creating emotionally intelligent digital humans, experts say, it may forever change the way living people cooperate with puters and experience loss. AndyBot may bee one of the world39。s first: meaningful examples, raising plex philosophical questions about the nature of immortality and the purpose of existence itself.(1)What is the purpose of the first paragraph? highlight Kaplan39。s achievements. introduce the topic AndyBot. arouse readers interest in Kaplan. introduce Kaplan39。s life.(2)Why did Andrew Kaplan agree to bee AndyBot? wanted to share his life experience as long as possible. wanted to make his loved one remember him. believed this action will help with his novels. could live in the cloud to continue his life.(3)What might the AndyBot do for future generations? may use voice puting platforms. may use a new body to go on living. may offer some guidance. may ask them questions.(4)What can we infer from the last paragraph? problems can be worked out by modern science. can talk with their late family members freely. have made great progress in puter science. is still a long way for digital humans to go.【答案】 (1)B(2)A(3)C(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了科技新動(dòng)態(tài)數(shù)字人。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段可知,當(dāng)安德魯卡普蘭回憶往昔的時(shí)候,他的故事讓人感覺他活出了各種各樣的人生:20多歲的時(shí)候是戰(zhàn)地記者,還是一名軍人,一位成功的商人,隨后又是很多間諜小說和好萊塢劇本的作者。主要介紹安德魯卡普蘭豐富多彩的人生;在根據(jù)第二段中的“Now the silver haired 78year old has realized he would like his loved ones to have access to those stories, even when he is no longer alive to share them. Kaplan has agreed to bee “AndyBot” a virtual person who will be”現(xiàn)在這位花白頭發(fā)的78歲的老人想要他愛的人知道這些故事,甚至當(dāng)他去世之后還可以分享這些故事。Kaplan同意變成數(shù)字人 ,可知,第一段的內(nèi)容主要是引出下文中文章的話題數(shù)字人。故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Now the silver haired 78year old has realized he would like his loved ones to have access to those stories, even when he is no longer alive to share them. Kaplan has agreed to bee ‘AndyBot’...a virtual person who will be”現(xiàn)在這位花白頭發(fā)的78歲的老人想要他愛的人知道這些故事,甚至當(dāng)他去世之后還可以分享這些故事。Kaplan同意變成數(shù)字人,可知,卡普蘭同意變成數(shù)字人是為了能更長時(shí)間的分享自己的這些故事。故選A。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“If all goes according to plan. future generations will be able to interact with him using voice puting platforms of mobile devices, asking him questions, letting him tell stories and drawing upon a lifetime39。s worth of advice long after his physical body is gone. ”如果一切按計(jì)劃進(jìn)行,后代可以通過移動(dòng)端的語音平臺(tái)和他交流,即使他的肉體不存在后,還可以問他問題,讓他講故事以及咨詢他一生經(jīng)驗(yàn)的寶貴建議。可知卡普蘭成為“數(shù)字人”后,他的后代仍能得到他一生經(jīng)驗(yàn)的寶貴建議。故選C。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“If technology succeeds in creating emotionally intelligent digital humans, experts say, it may forever change the way living people cooperate with puters and experience loss.”可知,專家們說,如果科技成功地創(chuàng)造出高情商的數(shù)字人類,它可能會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)改變?nèi)祟惻c電腦交互的方式,以及處理失去親人創(chuàng)傷的方式,即目前的數(shù)字人類還無法擁有高情商,還是不夠完美的,因此數(shù)字人技術(shù)還有很長的路要走。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科技類閱讀,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。8.閱讀理解 Some people sit outside for hours without getting bitten by mosquitoes, but it always seems like you39。re being eaten alive within minu
