(not) to do sth. = persuade sb. out of (doing) sth. 说服某人不做某事 persuade sb. of ... = persuade sb. (that) 使某人信服 2. distant adj. 遥远的; 远处的;疏远的;心不在焉的 用法:be + 距离 + distant from ... 离...(有...)远 转化:distance n.[C,U]距离;远处 in the distance 在远处 distantly adv. 遥远地;冷淡地 3. secure adj. 安全的;安心的;可靠的;牢固的 vt. 获得;拴牢;保护 用法:feel secure about... 对...感到安心 be secure against/from... 没有...的危险 secure ... against... 保护...免于受到...(危害) 转化:insecure adj. 不安全的;缺乏信心的 securely adv. 安全地;安心地;牢固地;有把握地 security n.[U]安全;平安 4. preference n.爱好; 偏爱 用法:have a preference for ... 偏爱...... in preference to ... 优先于......;而不是...... give (a) preference to ... 给......以优惠; 优待...... 转化:prefer v. 更喜欢...;喜欢...多于... preferable adj. 更可取的,更适合的 5. command n.指令; 命令; 控制vt.命令; 控制 用法:(be) in command 指挥,控制 take/have command 控制,开始指挥 under one’s command/under the command of 由某人统率/指挥 6. monitor vt.监控;监督;监听 n.班长;调查员;显示器;监视器 7. warning n. 警告;警示;先兆 转化: warning adj.警告的;告诫的 warn n.&v. 警告,告诫;提醒注意 8. detect vt.发现;查明 转化: detective n. 侦探 detection n.察觉,侦测,发现 9. available adj.可获得的;可购得的;可找到的;(人)有空的 用法:be available for sth. 可用于... be available to do sth. 可以做某事... be available to/for sb. ...对某人来说是可以获得的 1.2 Learning About Language 核心语法 将来进行时(The Future Continuous)表示将来某一时刻或某一阶段内将要发生的动作。将来进行时由“shall/will + be动词 + 现在分词”构成。shall用于第一人称,will用于各种人称。 1.将来进行时的构成
肯定句:主语 + shall/will + be + 现在分词...
否定句:主语 + shall/will + not + be + 现在分词...
疑问句:Shall/Will + 主语 + be + 现在分词...
疑问代词/疑问副词 + shall/will + 主语 + be + 现在分词... 2. 基本用法 (1) 表示将来某时刻正在进行的动作。如: Don’t phone him between 5pm and 6pm. He’ll be having(have) a meeting then. 五点至六点之间不要给他打电话,那时他在开会。 When I get home, my wife probably will be doing(do) cooking. 当我到家时,我太太可能正在做饭。 (2) 表示按计划或安排要发生的动作。如: The train won’t be leaving(leave) until one o’clock. 火车一点钟才开。 We shall be going(go) to London next week. 下周我们要去伦敦。 (3) 常用来表示预计即将发生或势必要发生的动作。如: When shall we be meeting(meet) next time 我们下次什么时候见面? Do come tomorrow! We’ll be expecting(expect) you. 明天务必来,我们要等你的。 (4) 表示委婉语气。 注意:“will + be doing.” 这一用法,在将来时态里使用频率在增加。 如果要表示纯粹的“将来”概念可采用“will +be doing” 结构,这种结构通常带有自然要发生的含义,不包括“意愿、意图”等情态意义;“will + be doing.” 结构也可以表示将来某一时刻或时段里正在进行的动作。 3. 和一般将来时的区别 (1) 将来进行时表示将来某时正在进行的动作; 而一般将来时表示将来某时将要发生的动作。如: What will you be doing(do) at seven the day after tomorrow 后天晚上七点会在做什么呢 What will you do(do) at seven the day after tomorrow 后天晚上七点你干什么? (2) 将来进行表示已有的安排;而一般将来时表示临时决定。如: I’ll go(go) to see him after school. 放学后我去看她。 I’ll be going(do) to see him after school. 放学后我准备去看她的。 (3) 两者均可表示将来,但用将来进行时语气更委婉,比较: When will you finish(finish) your homework 你什么什候完成作业? When will you be finishing(finish) your homework 你什么什候完成作业呢? (4) 有时将来进行时则只是单纯地谈未来情况;而一般将来中的will含有“愿意”的意思。比较: Mary won’t be paying(pay) this bill. 不会由玛丽来付钱。(单纯谈未来情况) Mary won’t pay(pay) this bill. 玛丽不肯付这笔钱。(表意愿) 1.3 Using Language & Assessing Your Progress I.核心词汇 combine vt.& vi.(使)结合;混合 (教材P16)Care will also be taken to combine the building and surrounding architecture together to form an effective system. 也要小心地将这些大楼和周围的建筑结合起来,形成一个有效的系统。 [例1] She successfully combines her career with family life. 她成功地兼顾事业和家庭。 [例2] Let us combine our firms against our competitors.

A court in Shenzhen ruled that a news report written by Tencent’s AI enjoys copyright protection.1. This is the first case in China that has provided copyright protection to work done by AI. But what does it indicate 2. Probably not. AI is not yet able to write creative stories. The news report mentioned above is mainly about data.3.it is often used to write financial reports. Some newspapers also use AI to report on stories about natural disasters, which mainly require basic facts such as “where” and “when”. As Forbes wrote, instead of losing their jobs, journalists can make their work more efficient by using AI so that they can focus more on storytelling and less on numbers. 4.For example, Wayne McGregor, a British choreographer(编舞), is famous for using AI to create new dances. For him, AI is a powerful tool that can help choreographers break out of common movements. McGregor is not worried that AI might replace human artists. “AI can’t judge the quality of the choreography,” he said. “It’s time to stop worrying about if AI can be creative,” according to Forbes.5. A.As artificial intelligence progresses, B.AI is actually being helpful in many creative fields. C.Instead, we should focus on how humans and AI can work together in ways that we have never dreamed of before. D.A website broke the law because it used the article without permission. E.Since AI is good at processing data, F.It’s time to think about how to prevent AI from replacing humans. G.Will AI take the place of creative workers in the future 【答案】 1.D 2.G 3.E 4.B 5.C 【分析】 本文是说明文。通过描述一个与人工智能(AI)有关)特殊的版权案件,文章讲述了人工智能具有创造力,是否未来会代替创造性人才的问题,最后说明人们不必担心人工智能,而是应该考虑与人工智能的合作。 1. 上文“A special copyright case has recently drawn attention because it is related to artificial intelligence(AI). A court in Shenzhen ruled that a news report written by Tencent’s AI enjoys copyright protection.( 一个特殊的版权案件最近引起了人们的关注,因为它与人工智能(AI)有关,深圳一家法院裁定,腾讯人工智能撰写的新闻报道享有版权保护)”说明了一件与版权有关的案件,D项“一个网站违反了法律,因为它未经许可使用了这篇文章。”具体解释了上文提到的案件。故选D。 2. 上文“But what does it indicate ”说明一个问题,空格处应是与上文问题一致,下文“Probably not. AI is not yet able to write creative stories.( 可能不是。人工智能还不能写创造性的故事)”是对问题的回答,因此空格处也是问句,G项中“AI” 与下文中的AI一致,“creative workers”与下文的“write creative stories”一致,故选G。 3. 空格处是一个分句,故从A项和E项中选择。上文“The news report mentioned above is mainly about data.( 上面提到的新闻报道主要是关于数据的)”提到了“data”与E项中的“data”一致,后半句“it is often used to write financial reports.(它经常被用来写经济报告)”,根据上文内容可知,it指代上文提到的AI,E项中提到“AI”,因此推断E项“因为人工智能擅长处理数据”符合语境,故选E。 4. 下文“For example, Wayne McGregor, a British choreographer(编舞), is famous for using AI to create new dances.( 例如,英国舞蹈编导韦恩·麦格雷戈(WayneMcGregor)以使用人工智能创造新舞蹈而闻名)”是一个使用人工智能创造的例子,因此推断空格处说明人工智能可以用于其它创造性领域。故选B。 5. 上文“It’s time to stop worrying about if AI can be creative(现在是时候停止担心人工智能是否有创造力了)”说明我们不必担心人工智能有创造力,C项中的“instead”表示转折关系,下文“we should focus on how humans and AI can work together in ways that we have never dreamed of before.( 我们应该专注于人类和人工智能如何能够以我们以前从未梦想过的方式共同工作。)”与前文是转折关系,说明我们不用担心人工智能的创造力,而是应该专注于人类与人工智能的合作。故选C。 阅读理解 1 Do you need a human to create a beautiful scent (气味) That’s the question being asked as artificial intelligence (AI) starts to enter the perfume(香水) industry. Companies are increasingly turning to technology in order to create more bestselling, unique fragrances that can be produced in just minutes. Last year, Swiss-based fragrance developer Givaudan Fragrances launched Carto, an artificial intelligence-powered tool to help perfumers(调香师). Through machine learning (a way computers improve outcomes automatically by learning from past results) Carto can suggest combinations of ingredients. Using a touch screen, the perfumer can pull together different scents using data from the brand’s vast library of fragrance formulas (配方) — a much more efficient process than using traditional forms. A small robot immediately processes the fragrances into perfumes, making it easier for perfumers to test their new scents. German fragrance house Symrise has gone one step further and teamed up with IBM Research to create an AI called Philyra. Like Carto, Philyra can’t actually sniff anything. But it is not designed to replace perfumers. “It’s machine-learning and sometimes the results have been wrong,” says Claire Viola, vice president of digital strategy fragrance at Symrise. “It’s still a project, the more we test, the more it continues to improve. It constantly needs training.” 6.What is Carto according to the passage A.a bestselling unique fragrance. B.a Swiss-based fragrance developer. C.an AI-powered tool. D.combinations of ingredients. 7.What’s the main idea of para. 3 A.The process of making fragrance. B.Two ways of making fragrance. C.The importance of a small robot. D.The popularity of a small robot. 8.What can we infer from Claire Viola’s opinion on Philyra A.It will replace perfumers in the near future. B.It’s the most effective technology to produce perfume. C.The results will be perfect when using it. D.We should train and improve it, because it’s machine-learning. 9.In which section of the newspaper can you probably read this passage A.Lifestyle B.Entertainment C.Advertisement D.Science & technology 【答案】 6.C 7.A 8.D 9.D 【分析】 本文是一篇说明文。人工智能技术已经渗透到社会生活的各个领域,产品的开发研制利用人工智能技术将更高效、更高质。瑞士香料开发商奇华顿( Givandan)运用人工智能技术选取香水配方组合,能在数分钟内制造出香味更独特的香水。该篇阅读介绍了利用人工智能制造香水的最新科技。 6. 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Last year, Swiss-based fragrance developer Givaudan Fragrances launched Carto, an artificial intelligence-powered tool to help perfumers(调香师). (去年瑞士香水开发商奇华顿推出了一款人工智能工具Carto来帮助调香师。)”Carto后的同位语an artificial intelligence-powered tool可知,它是一个人工智能驱动的工具。故选C。 7. 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Using a touch screen, the perfumer can pull together different scents using data from the brand’s vast library of fragrance formulas (配方) — a much more efficient process than using traditional forms. A small robot immediately processes the fragrances into perfumes, making it easier for perfumers to test their new scents. (通过触屏,调香师可以从该品牌庞大的香水配方库中提取数据,将不同的香味组合在一起——一个比使用电子表格更高效的过程。一个小型机器人能立即将香味加工成香水,使调香师更容易测试他们的新气味。)”可知,本段主要关于制做香水的过程。故选A。 8. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It’s still a project, the more we test, the more it continues to improve. It constantly needs training.(这仍然是一个项目,我们测试的越多,它就越能继续改进。它需要不断的训练。)”可知,Claire Viola认为这是一种学习机器,计算结果有时有误;该技术需要不断测试并改进。据此可以推知,由于这是一种学习机器,故我们应当不断培训改进,故选D。 9. 推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,该篇阅读介绍了利用人工智能制造香水这一技术,关于最新科技,属于科技发展范围。故选D。 2 However exciting space travel sounds, astronauts must still suffer with bad food. Now, food in space has to be dehydrated (使脱水) or precooked and stored. This means astronauts aren’t really eating fresh food. New technology may change this. Scientific American reports that a specially-designed oven will be sent into space this autumn with NASA’s NG-12 cargo mission. Far from the common vacuum-packed meals, astronauts may get to enjoy freshly baked cookies before the end of 2020. Why aren’t they baking cookies in space already For one thing, there’s the risk of a fire. Engineers also have to overcome the challenge of micro-gravity(微重力), which prevents heat from circling inside ovens the same way it does on Earth. Astronauts will still have to wait a while before they can have their cookies, though. After baking, the results will be sent back to Earth for safety testing. If successful, this will be the first oven to bake food in space. “ I believe... that will be game-changing for both science and astronauts,” food technology researcher Maeena Naman Shafiee told Scientific American. One of the main diving forces behind this project has been NASA’s 2018 research into the effects of “confinement and isolation”. Unlike on the International Space Station (ISS), astronauts traveling out of Earth’s orbit may not be able to speak to their loved ones on future missions, which could lead to negative feelings. It’s hoped that the chance to bake and sense familiar smells can bring joy to astronauts. “Is the ISS going to smell like fresh-baked cookies We don’t know,” said NanoRacks’ communications manager Abby Dickes. “But that’s feeling we all know and love... that will make someone feel at home.” Baking cookies in space would mark an important step, offering a small comfort in the difficult and unfamiliar environment of space travel. Astronauts have already grown plants aboard the ISS. With commercial space travel now being planned, who knows what other developments may surprise us in the future 10.What can astronauts do with the new oven in space in the future A.They can cook a meal B.They can eat cookies. C.They can bring more fresh food D.They can prepare food quickly 11.According to the passage, why can’t astronauts bake cookies in space now A.Cooking in space needs some special cooking skills. B.Micro-gravity makes it dangerous to cook in space. C.It’s expensive and inconvenient to bring fresh food to the space. D.It’s difficult to heat food the same way as on Earth because of different gravity. 12.Which one is NOT the purpose of designing the special oven A.To prepare some fresh food for astronauts. B.To bring the feeling of home to the astronauts. C.To make improvements in space travel. D.To provide a new game for astronauts to play in space. 13.The author is most likely to think that the future of astronautical development will be ________. A.unknown B.imaginable C.surprising D.confusing 【答案】 10.B 11.D 12.D 13.C 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。一种特别设计的烤箱有可能让宇航员可以在太空烤饼干,吃上新鲜的食物,从而使太空旅行更舒适。 10. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Far from the common vacuum-packed meals, astronauts may get to enjoy freshly baked cookies before the end of 2020. (与普通的真空包装食物不同的是,在2020年底之前,宇航员可能会享受到新鲜出炉的饼干)”可知,新技术可以帮助宇航员吃到新鲜的饼干。故选B。 11. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Engineers also have to overcome the challenge of micro-gravity(微重力), which prevents heat from circling inside ovens the same way it does on Earth. (工程师必须克服微重力,它使热量不能像在地球上一样在烤箱内环绕)”可知,宇航员现在不能在太空烘焙饼干,是由于重力的不同,很难用地球上相同的方式加热食物。故选D。 12. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Far from the common vacuum-packed meals, astronauts may get to enjoy freshly baked cookies before the end of 2020. (与普通的真空包装食物不同的是,在2020年底之前,宇航员可能会享受到新鲜出炉的饼干)”;倒数第四段“It’s hoped that the chance to bake and sense familiar smells can bring joy to crews.(他们希望通过烘焙和闻到熟悉的气味给宇航员们带来欢乐)”及倒数第三段中“But that’s feeling we all know and love... that will make someone feel at home. (但这是我们都知道和喜欢的感觉……这会让人有家的感觉)”可知,设计特殊烤箱的目的有:为宇航员准备一些新鲜的食物、给宇航员带来家的感觉以及改善太空旅行,除了D选项“为宇航员提供一个在太空玩的新游戏”。故选D。 13. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“With commercial space travel now being planned, who knows what other developments may surprise us in the future ( 随着商业太空旅行正在计划中,谁知道未来还有什么其他的发展会让我们大吃一惊呢?)”可推知,作者最有可能认为,航天发展的未来将是令人惊讶的。故选C。 完形填空 Trackers on Ice Just because a scientist puts a GPS tracking collar on a wild polar bear does not mean the animal will willingly keep it on. 14 , these huge collars are purposefully loose so that if one becomes annoying, a bear can 15 it. But scientists have now found a way to use signals from the discarded(丢弃的)devices. “These dropped collars 16 would have been considered garbage data,” says Natasha Klappstein, a polar bear researcher at the University of Alberta. She and her colleagues instead used 17 from such collars, left on sea ice in Canada's Hudson Bay, to track the ice itself. For their study, published in June in The Cryosphere, the researchers 18 twenty collars that sent movement data consistent(与······一致的)with ice drift rather than polar bear 19 between 2005 and 2015. The resulting records of how melting ice typically drifts in Hudson Bay are unique; there are no easily 20 on-the-ground sensors, and satellite observations often cannot 21 capture the motion of small ice sheets. The team compared the discarded collars' movements with widely used ice-drift modeling data from the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). Collar data indicated that the NSIDC model underestimates the speed at which ice moves around in Hudson Bay--as well as the overall 22 of drift. Over the course of several months the model could drift away from an ice sheet's location by a few hundred kilometers, the researchers say. This means the bears may be working harder, when moving against the direction of the ice, than scientists had 23 .“Since we're underestimating the speed of drift, we're likely underestimating the energetic effort of polar bears," says Natasha Klappstein. The research reveals 24 insight (洞悉) into how highly mobile ice moves. As melting increases in coming years, such ice will likely become more 25 farther north, in the central Arctic. Scientists had known NSIDC data could underestimate drift speeds, but “any time we can find a data 26 ,it is a good thing.” Plus,such data could improve predictions about how oil spills or other pollutants may spread in seas 27 with drifting ice, says Walt Meier, a senior NSIDC research scientist,who was not involved in the study. The findings may even 28 future NSIDC models. “It's a really nice data set,” Meier says."And certainly one we’ll take consideration. 14.A.In fact B.In a way C.In addition D.In the end 15.A.destroy B.remove C.resist D.reject 16.A.particularly B.relevantly C.intentionally D.potentially 17.A.estimates B.subjects C.measurements D.patents 18.A.displayed B.identified C.justified D.preserved 19.A.behavior B.habitat C.manner D.motion 20.A.flexible B.favorable C.accessible D.changeable 21.A.internally B.accurately C.securely D.independently 22.A.extent B.damage C.trend D.limit 23.A.agreed B.promised C.proved D.assumed 24.A.immediate B.superior C.entire D.timely 25.A.evident B.unique C.common D.realistic 26.A.gap B.scan C.boom D.fit 27.A.replaced B.littered C.packed D.matched 28.A.reverse B.resemble C.influence D.motivate 【答案】 14.A 15.B 16.D 17.C 18.B 19.D 20.C 21.B 22.A 23.D 24.D 25.C 26.A 27.B 28.C 【分析】 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了科学家通过被丢弃的项圈获得数据来研究北极冰的移动。 14. 考查介词短语辨析。句意:事实上,这些巨大的项圈是故意松开的,如果一个项圈让熊觉得讨厌,熊可能会把它取下来。A.
