五、阅读单选(共10分)
In 2018 , Science magazine asked some young scientists what schools should teach students. Most said students should spend less time memorizing facts and have more space for creative activities. As the Internet grows more powerful, students can access(获得) knowledge easily. Why should they be required to carry so much of it around in their heads
Civilizations(文明) develop through forgetting life skills that were once necessary. In the Agricultural(农业的) Age, a farmer could afford to forget hunting skills. When societies industrialized, the knowledge of farming could be safe to forget. Nowadays, smart machines give us access to most human knowledge. It seems that we no longer need to remember most things. Does it matter
Researchers have recognized several problems that may happen. For one, human beings have biases(偏见), and smart machines are likely to increase our biases. Many people believe smart machines are necessarily correct and objective , but machines are trained through a repeated testing and scoring process. In the process, human beings still decide on the correct answers.
Another problem relates to the ease of accessing information. When there were no computers, efforts were required to get knowledge from other people, or go to the library. We know what knowledge lies in other brains or books, and what lies in our heads. But today, the Internet gives us the information we need quickly. This can lead to the mistaken belief—the knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along.
In a new civilization rich in machine intelligence, we have easy access to smart memory networks where information is stored. But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse of any of the networks of relations our well-being(健康) depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce terrible results. Without food we get hungry; without energy we feel cold. And it is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.
We forget old ways to free up time and space for new skills. As long as the older forms of knowledge are stored somewhere in our networks, and can be found when we need them, perhaps they’re not really forgotten. Still, as time goes on, we gradually but unquestionably become strangers to future people.
37.Why are smart machines likely to increase our biases
A.Because they go off course in testing and scoring.
B.Because we control the training process on them.
C.Because we offer them too much information.
D.Because they overuse the provided answers.
38.The ease of accessing information from the Internet ________.
A.frees us from making efforts to learn new skills
B.prevents civilizations from being lost at a high speed.
C.misleads us into thinking we already knew the knowledge
D.separates the facts we have from those in the smart machines
39.The underlined word “collapse” in Paragraph 5 probably means“________” .
A.a sudden failure B.the basic rule C.a disappointing start D.the gradual development
40.According to this passage, the following are true except ________.
A.Most young scientists replied to Science that students should have more creative activities.
B.Nowadays, with smart machines, people no longer need to remember most things.
C.The ease of accessing information causes some problems to people.
D.It is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.
41.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A.To question about the standards of information storage.
B.To discuss our problems of communication with machines.
C.To stress the importance of improving our memorizing ability.
D.To remind us of the risk of depending on machines to remember.

A British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience (观众) enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.
Ghaffar Pourazar, born in Iran, said he has been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and is full of interest about China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costumes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.
At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest challenge. But he never gave up.
Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived at the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.
Ghaffar today is not only good at speaking Beijing dialect (方言) but has also built fame for Beijing Opera. He once got a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.

This can lead to the mistaken belief—the knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along.
In a new civilization rich in machine intelligence, we have easy access to smart memory networks where information is stored. But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse of any of the networks of relations our well-being(健康) depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce terrible results. Without food we get hungry; without energy we feel cold. And it is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.
We forget old ways to free up time and space for new skills. As long as the older forms of knowledge are stored somewhere in our networks, and can be found when we need them, perhaps they’re not really forgotten. Still, as time goes on, we gradually but unquestionably become strangers to future people.
37.Why are smart machines likely to increase our biases
A.Because they go off course in testing and scoring.
B.Because we control the training process on them.
C.Because we offer them too much information.
D.Because they overuse the provided answers.
38.The ease of accessing information from the Internet ________.
A.frees us from making efforts to learn new skills
B.prevents civilizations from being lost at a high speed.
C.misleads us into thinking we already knew the knowledge
D.separates the facts we have from those in the smart machines
39.The underlined word “collapse” in Paragraph 5 probably means“________” .
A.a sudden failure B.the basic rule C.a disappointing start D.the gradual development
40.According to this passage, the following are true except ________.
A.Most young scientists replied to Science that students should have more creative activities.
B.Nowadays, with smart machines, people no longer need to remember most things.
C.The ease of accessing information causes some problems to people.
D.It is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.
41.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A.To question about the standards of information storage.
B.To discuss our problems of communication with machines.
C.To stress the importance of improving our memorizing ability.
D.To remind us of the risk of depending on machines to remember.
【答案】37.B
38.C
39.A
40.B
41.D
【导语】
本文主要介绍了随着科技的发展,人们越来越依赖科技,但这也带来了许多的不利之处。
37.
细节理解题。根据短文第三段“For one, human beings have biases(偏见), and smart machines are likely to increase our biases…In the process, human beings still decide on the correct answers”可知,智能机器是通过重复测试和评分过程的训练,在这个过程中,人类仍然决定着正确的答案。故选B。
38.
细节理解题。根据短文第四段中“But today, the Internet gives us the information we need quickly. This can lead to the mistaken belief—the knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along”可知,互联网给我们提供了方便,可以让我们快速得到所需要的信息,但这可能会误导我们认为我们已经知道了这些知识。故选C。
39.
词义猜测题。根据上下文语境“But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse of any of the networks of relations our well-being(健康) depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce terrible results”可知,对网络的依赖很容易受到伤害,后面举例说明网络的崩溃会导致可怕的后果,划线单词表示“崩溃”,与“a sudden failure”意思相近。故选A。
40.
推理判断题。根据“Nowadays, smart machines give us access to most human knowledge. It seems that we no longer need to remember most things. Does it matter ”、“And it is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.”及最后一段可知,即使有了智能机器,我们也还需要自己去记很多东西,不然会带来很多问题,所以B表述错误,故选B。
41.
推理判断题。根据短文第二段的最后“It seems that we no longer need to remember most things. Does it matter”以及第三段“Researchers have recognized several problems that may happen”,第四段“Another problem relates to the ease of accessing information”,第五段“But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily”等可知,短文作者先提出问题“我们还需要再记忆很多东西吗?”,然后分析了这个问题,发现如果不靠自己的记忆,而去依赖机器会导致很多问题的发生,由此可知推知作者写这篇文章的目的是提醒我们依赖机器记忆是有风险的。故选D。

A British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience (观众) enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.
Ghaffar Pourazar, born in Iran, said he has been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and is full of interest about China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costumes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.
At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest challenge. But he never gave up.
Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived at the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.
Ghaffar today is not only good at speaking Beijing dialect (方言) but has also built fame for Beijing Opera. He once got a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.
