主题语境 人与社会——科学与技术——用人工智能研发治疗强迫症的药物
(2021·开封市高三模拟) A drug designed entirely by artificial intelligence is about to enter clinical trials for the first time.The drug,which is intended to treat obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) (强迫症) ,was discovered using AI systems from Oxford based biotech company ExscientiA.While it would usually take around four and a half years to get a drug to this stage of development,Exscientia says that by using the AI tools it's taken less than 12 months.
The drug,known as DSP 1181,was created by using algorithms (算法) to examine potential compounds,checking them against a huge database of parameters,including a patient's genetic factors.Speaking to the BBC,Exscientia chief executive Professor Andrew Hopkins described the trials as a “key milestone in drug discovery”and noted that there are “billions” of decisions needed to find the right molecules (分子) for a drug,making their eventual creation a “huge decision”.With AI,however, “the beauty of the algorithms is that they are unknowable,so can be applied to any disease”.
We've already seen multiple examples of AI being used to diagnose illness and analyze patient data,so using it to engineer drug treatment is an obvious progression of its place in medicine.But the AI created drugs do bring about some relevant questions.Will patients be comfortable to take medicine designed by a machine How will these drugs differ from those developed by humans alone Who will make the rules for the use of AI in drug research Hopkins and his team hope that these and a great many other questions will be explored in the trials,which will begin in March.
4.What is special about the drug designed by AI
A.It's a better cure for OCD.
B.It has no side effect on humans.
C.Its development takes less time.
D.It doesn't need clinical trials.
5.Which is a key factor in creating the drug according to Paragraph 2

主题语境 人与社会——人际交往——如何进行一次成功的采访
(2021·北京市高考适应性测试)An interview is a discussion with someone in which you try to get information from him.1.________ There are three basic subtypes of interview:structured interviews,unstructured interviews and semi structured interviews.2.________ Incidentally,the“respondent”and “informant” are words that are sometimes used instead of the“interviewee”.
A great deal is provided by this personal contact:you are another human being,and interviewees will respond to you,in bodily presence,in an entirely different way from the way that they would have reacted to questionnaires that came through their letterboxes or to emails.3.________ Most people want to help and give their opinions,and they will usually be energized to help by your physical presence.
If you take the trouble to schedule a visit,you can be more or less guaranteed of a response. Most importantly,though,you will be able to relate to interviewees while you are talking to them.4.________ You will be able to watch their behaviour which will give you important clues about how they feel about a topiC. Because of the primacy(首要)of the personal contact,your appearance and tone are important—how do you want to be seen As “one of us”? As a person in authority As an observer?...Or what?5.________ However you decide to present yourself,it is good practice of course to try to put the interviewee at ease before the interview begins—to talk about the weather,about your journey,about anything that will break the ice.
A.This is ready made support for you.
B.Its nature varies with the nature of the interviews.
C.You will be able to hear and understand what they are saying.
D.Your decision should influence the way that you look,sound and behave.
E.The information may be facts or opinions or attitudes or any combination of these.
F.Each involves the interviewer in face to face contact or telephone contact with another person.
G.You will be using these clues to make informed guesses about what the interviewees might really mean.

7.What can be the best title for the text
A.Medical Trials by AI
B.An Example in Medical Trials
C.A Creation in AI Development
D.AI designed Drugs to Be on Trial

文章大意:采访就是试图从他人那里获得信息的一次讨论。本文对其进行了简单的介绍,并介绍了采访这种形式的优势及进行一次成功的采访的方法。
1.解析:E 空前一句对采访下了定义,空后一句对采访进行了分类,再结合选项可推知E项符合语境,该项中的“The information”与前一句相呼应,所以选用E选项。
2.解析:F 空前一句对采访进行了分类,空后一句介绍了对受访者的不同称呼,由此可推知,空处应该会讲到采访形式,所以选用F选项。
3.解析:A 本段主要表述了采访这种形式的优势。空前一句表述了受访者对采访与问卷以及邮件的反应完全不同,再结合语境和常识可知,A选项符合语境,即采访能使受访者提供极其方便的支持。
4.解析:C 根据空前一句中的“you will be able to relate to interviewees”和空后一句中的“You will be able to watch their behaviour”可推知,空处句式应与前后句一致,形成排比句式,C选项符合语境,故选C项。

文章大意:水星上的一个环形山以中国著名女词人李清照命名,这着实令人惊奇。李清照如何能够享有这份荣誉呢?本文由此对李清照的一生进行了简要的介绍。
1.解析:included 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处和句子谓语named之间没有连词,应用非谓语形式,且和其逻辑主语Li构成动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语,所以填included。
2.解析:an 考查冠词。此处的honor意为“荣誉”,应用不定冠词修饰,且honor的发音以元音音素开头,所以填an。
3.解析:who 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,在从句中作主语,修饰表示人的先行词other male poets,所以填who。
4.解析:However 考查副词。前一句表述和其他遗作几百甚至几千首的中国男性诗人相比,她只有八十七首,并结合空后的内容可知,此处前后形成转折,且修饰整个句子,所以填However。
5.解析:existing 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,此处应是形容词修饰名词works,所以填existing“现存的”。
6.解析:relatively 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰形容词relaxed,应用副词形式,所以填relatively。
7.解析:Worse 考查比较级。worse still意为“更糟糕的是”,是固定用法,且符合语境,所以填Worse。
8.解析:permission 考查名词。分析句子结构可知,空处应为名词,作动词got的宾语,其前的冠词the对其起限定作用,所以填permission。
9.解析:with 考查介词。此处表示甚至尽管没有人可以依靠,故用介词with,意为“尽管,虽然”。
10.解析:have been left 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处为定语从句的谓语,关系代词that是从句的主语,指代many literary works,且空处与从句中的主语that构成被动关系,故用被动语态,即be+done,又根据时间状语to date可知,应用现在完成时,又主语为复数,所以填have been left。
