【正文】 samples of human voices are collected and synthesized (合成). This is followed by the collection and synthesis of human muscle movement samples. And third the voices and movements are married in a way 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(gè)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(gè)活生生的人，她讀新聞的時(shí)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(shí)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(diǎn)在于第三技術(shù)，使辛?xí)悦鹊拿娌勘砬楦鶕?jù)新聞報(bào)道的內(nèi)容而變化，事實(shí)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(diǎn)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(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及詞義猜測和推理判斷兩個(gè)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。8．犇犇閱讀理解 The Alexander technique Until earlier this year, I didn39。t know anything about the Alexander technique—and saw no reason to think I should. One day, the backache I regularly suffered was more painful. I was brought up to think that the preferred way of dealing with aches is to do nothing and hope they39。ll go away, but I eventually went to the doctor. After examining me, he said, You actually have bad posture (姿勢). Go off and learn the Alexander technique. Three months later I could walk straighter and sit better. The Alexander technique is a way of learning how you can get rid of harmful tension in your body. The teaching focuses on the neck, head and back. It trains you to use your body less severely and carry out the movements that we do all the time with less effort. There is little effort in the lessons themselves, which sets apart the Alexander technique from yoga or pilates, which are exercisebased. A typical lesson involves standing in front of a chair and learning to sit and stand with minimum effort. You spend some time lying on a bench with your knees bent to straighten the spine (脊椎) and relax your body while the teacher moves your arms and legs to train you to move them correctly. The technique helps to break the bad habits accumulated over years. Try folding your arms the opposite way to normal. This is an example of a habit the body has formed which can be hard to break. Many of us carry our heads too far back. The head weighs four to six kilos, so any inappropriate posture can cause problems for the body. The technique teaches you to let go of the muscles holding the head back, allowing it to go back to its natural place on the top of our spines. So who was Alexander and how did he e up with the technique? Frederick Alexander, an Australian actor born in 1869, found in his youth that he had vocal (聲音的) problems during performances. He analyzed himself and realized his posture was bad. He worked on improving it, with excellent results. He brought his technique to London and opened a teachertraining school, which is still successful today. So if you39。re walking along the road one day with shoulders bent forward, feeling weighed down by your troubles, give a thought to the Alexander technique. It will help you walk tall again.（1）What does the author suggest in Paragraph 1? A.She felt no better after the treatment.B.She got bored with the Alexander technique.C.She w
