Letters”沒有，希臘，字母“是想說fast, ai的深度學(xué)習(xí)課程很簡單。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的”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. “如果霍華德和其他人如愿以償，那么讓AI軟件開發(fā)變得更容易將會催生出一批新的不同的果實。由此推斷簡化軟件開發(fā)可能會導(dǎo)致意料之外的結(jié)果。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，句義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。7．閱讀理解 Delhi has been the centre of a succession of mighty empires and powerful kingdoms in India. Numerous ruins scattered throughout the territory offer a constant reminder of the area39。s history, which makes the city always be a fascinating place for tourists.

Millions of antipollution masks were distributed at schools, colleges, hospitals and markets. New Delhi, is engulfed each year as the weather cools and a thick haze builds up from the pollutants emitted from cars and coalbased power plants, swirling dust from construction sites and roads and smoke from crop stubble burning in neighboring states. Fireworks and firecrackers to celebrate the Hindu festival of Diwali then arrives, leaving Delhi the world39。s most polluted city. The city39。s air quality index, which measures a mix of dangerous pollutants, registered an average score of 494 Sunday.
