Punishments you set should be reasonable, without violence or threat （暴力或威胁）. For example, if you find your son smoking, you may limit his social activities for two weeks.

Have you ever shouted at your computer because it wasn’t working Of course, your
computer can’t “shout” back. But AI researchers are working on computers that can argue and
perhaps even win debates with humans.
IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system-Project
Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments
from is opponent（对手）, the system can search around 400 million on line articles in less
than five minutes. It looks for ideas that can support its own argument.
Testing on the system began in 2019, when it debated（辩论）with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for winning the most debate competitions.
The topic was about subsidizing（资助）pre-school and the AI argued to support this idea.
Although the AI lost the debate in the end, the audience said it did very well.
Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge
about the topic — only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan.
According to Scientific American, the results show that the system is able to make
logical statements. However, winning a debate is never the researchers ’ goal. Their goal is to
help humans make better decisions, according to RaintAharanov, manager of the Project
Debater team. “I can debate both sides so it can very quickly help you understand both sides
of the problem, so you have a wider view of the problem and can make a better decision,”
Aharanov said for TechXplore.
16 ．How does Project Debater work
①Forms ideas that can support its own argument
②Listens to is opponent’s arguments
③Searches for online articles
④Debates its opponent

17 ．While debating Harish Natarajan, Project Debater .
A ．won the debate in the end B ．argued about subsidizing pre-school
C ．set a debating world record D ．often argued against itself
18 ．What did the audience think about the debate between Natarajan and the AI system
A ．58 percent thought Natarzjan was more knowledgeable than the system.
B ．One-fifth of the audience thought the system wouldn’t win the debate.
C ．More than half of the audience said they learned something from the system.
D ．The system had some disadvantages.
19 ．With Project Debater, we might .
A ．better understand problems while making decisions B ．never make mistakes when
dealing with problems
C ．have fewer arguments while solving problems D ．learn how to form logical
statements in arguments
20 ．What is the main idea for this article
A ．Project Debater is a better debater than humans. B ．Artificial Intelligence can also be
logical.
C ．AI can make better decisions for us. D ．Technology helps us to learn more
knowledge.
Looking at the undone homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel
uncomfortable. More often than not, David leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged
15, “the more I worry.”
Everyone procrastinates （拖延） because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to avoid the task. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “ Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by
cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people
procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people
are afraid of failure, of not meeting others ’ expectations,” Stone adds.
Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree.
“I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of
试卷第 4页，共 9页
time,” says Stone. “They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and
they took longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is,
procrastination is usually not going to be good for you. For example, bedtime procrastination
can lead to sleeplessness, which in turn can cause many other health problems.
For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take
action first. If you’ve been procrastinating on forming a habit of exercise, just put on your
walking shoes. A little bit of progress will get you moving.
Next, find something to help you remember to take action. If you want to go to bed at
10:30 pm, you might set a timed dimmer switch （渐暗开关） at 10 pm. When the lights are
dimmer, you’ll start going to bed. It works for most people.
Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress. For example, after you’ve run 3
km, enjoy your favourite ice-cream. But be careful: it won’t work the other way around.
21 ．What can be the best title of this passage
A ．A day of a procrastinator. B ．Procrastination: yes or no
C ．Say goodbye to procrastination. D ．Want to feel good now Procrastinate!
22 ．What is the main reason for people’s procrastination
A ．They want to avoid doing hard work. B ．They fear to lose and let others down.
C ．They need to finish the top tasks first. D ．They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last.
23 ．The underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 3 most probably means .
A ．think faster B ．work more successfully
C ．give up more easily D ．worry too much
24 ．What should David do if he wants to stop procrastinating on a writing task
A ．Put on some soft music to help think actively.
B ．Enjoy a favourite ice cream, and then start writing.
C ．Search the Internet for enough ideas before starting.
D ．Pick up a pen and write down possible starting sentences.
25 ．What is the purpose of this article
A ．It tells the disadvantages of procrastination.
B ．It explains why people procrastinates.
C ．It shows people the way to shake off procrastination.
D ．It helps readers have a better understanding of procrastination.

You may know the saying: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. 26 The
study used fruit flies, as they share many genes with humans. Researchers gave one group of
fruit flies normal food, and the other group of fruit flies got the same food and apples. The
results showed that flies that ate apples lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that
didn’t. 27
The researchers believe that the antioxidants（抗氧化剂）found in apples are good for
people’s health.
28 They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent
less likely to have a heart attack
Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code. This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruits that are healthier. 29 Antioxidants help to keep eyes and
joints（关节）healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.
Another new apples may be shown in supermarkets in just four or five years.
30 They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating. A ．Researchers have already used this information to grow apples with added antioxidants.
B ．A recent study has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps the old age away.
C ．This kind of apple can help people lose weight.
D ．They also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb as they became old.
E ．Besides apples, they ate the same food as the fruit flies which didn’t eat apples.

是形容词，其对应的名词是 difficulty ，复数形式是 difficulties ，故填 difficulties。
37 ．句意：我的一些朋友和我分享了他们关于这种善良的回忆。share sth with sb“与某人分
享某物” ，故填 with。

的事，故填 Luckily。

Have you ever shouted at your computer because it wasn’t working Of course, your
computer can’t “shout” back. But AI researchers are working on computers that can argue and
perhaps even win debates with humans.
IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system-Project
Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments
from is opponent（对手）, the system can search around 400 million on line articles in less
than five minutes. It looks for ideas that can support its own argument.
Testing on the system began in 2019, when it debated（辩论）with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for winning the most debate competitions.
The topic was about subsidizing（资助）pre-school and the AI argued to support this idea.
Although the AI lost the debate in the end, the audience said it did very well.
Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge
about the topic — only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan.
According to Scientific American, the results show that the system is able to make
logical statements. However, winning a debate is never the researchers ’ goal. Their goal is to
help humans make better decisions, according to RaintAharanov, manager of the Project
Debater team. “I can debate both sides so it can very quickly help you understand both sides
of the problem, so you have a wider view of the problem and can make a better decision,”
Aharanov said for TechXplore.
16 ．How does Project Debater work
①Forms ideas that can support its own argument
②Listens to is opponent’s arguments
③Searches for online articles
④Debates its opponent

17 ．While debating Harish Natarajan, Project Debater .
A ．won the debate in the end B ．argued about subsidizing pre-school
C ．set a debating world record D ．often argued against itself
18 ．What did the audience think about the debate between Natarajan and the AI system
A ．58 percent thought Natarzjan was more knowledgeable than the system.
B ．One-fifth of the audience thought the system wouldn’t win the debate.
C ．More than half of the audience said they learned something from the system.
D ．The system had some disadvantages.
19 ．With Project Debater, we might .
A ．better understand problems while making decisions B ．never make mistakes when
dealing with problems
C ．have fewer arguments while solving problems D ．learn how to form logical
statements in arguments
20 ．What is the main idea for this article
A ．Project Debater is a better debater than humans. B ．Artificial Intelligence can also be
logical.
C ．AI can make better decisions for us. D ．Technology helps us to learn more
knowledge.
Looking at the undone homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel
uncomfortable. More often than not, David leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged
15, “the more I worry.”
Everyone procrastinates （拖延） because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to avoid the task. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “ Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by
cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people
procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people
are afraid of failure, of not meeting others ’ expectations,” Stone adds.
Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree.
“I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of
试卷第 4页，共 9页
time,” says Stone. “They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and
they took longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is,
procrastination is usually not going to be good for you. For example, bedtime procrastination
can lead to sleeplessness, which in turn can cause many other health problems.
For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take
action first. If you’ve been procrastinating on forming a habit of exercise, just put on your
walking shoes. A little bit of progress will get you moving.
Next, find something to help you remember to take action. If you want to go to bed at
10:30 pm, you might set a timed dimmer switch （渐暗开关） at 10 pm. When the lights are
dimmer, you’ll start going to bed. It works for most people.
Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress. For example, after you’ve run 3
km, enjoy your favourite ice-cream. But be careful: it won’t work the other way around.
21 ．What can be the best title of this passage
A ．A day of a procrastinator. B ．Procrastination: yes or no
C ．Say goodbye to procrastination. D ．Want to feel good now Procrastinate!
22 ．What is the main reason for people’s procrastination
A ．They want to avoid doing hard work. B ．They fear to lose and let others down.
C ．They need to finish the top tasks first. D ．They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last.
23 ．The underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 3 most probably means .
A ．think faster B ．work more successfully
C ．give up more easily D ．worry too much
24 ．What should David do if he wants to stop procrastinating on a writing task
A ．Put on some soft music to help think actively.
B ．Enjoy a favourite ice cream, and then start writing.
C ．Search the Internet for enough ideas before starting.
D ．Pick up a pen and write down possible starting sentences.
25 ．What is the purpose of this article
A ．It tells the disadvantages of procrastination.
B ．It explains why people procrastinates.
C ．It shows people the way to shake off procrastination.
D ．It helps readers have a better understanding of procrastination.

You may know the saying: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. 26 The
study used fruit flies, as they share many genes with humans. Researchers gave one group of
fruit flies normal food, and the other group of fruit flies got the same food and apples. The
results showed that flies that ate apples lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that
didn’t. 27
The researchers believe that the antioxidants（抗氧化剂）found in apples are good for
people’s health.
28 They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent
less likely to have a heart attack
Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code. This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruits that are healthier. 29 Antioxidants help to keep eyes and
joints（关节）healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.
Another new apples may be shown in supermarkets in just four or five years.
30 They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating. A ．Researchers have already used this information to grow apples with added antioxidants.
B ．A recent study has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps the old age away.
