难度 ★ ★★ ★
Ⅰ 阅读
A
It's a typical day at school. You're playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you're in the nurse's office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) coming out of a ... robot Has the nurse's office been taken over by sci fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You've just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it's a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. “I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how.”
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn't need to take vacations. It doesn't need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what's wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn't meant to completely take the place of humans, though. “It would work with real, live nurses and doctors,” says Epstein, “there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who's hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient.”
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. “Besides,” says Epstein, “I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!” Would you?

4.What's Epstein's attitude towards AI doctors and nurses
A.Negative. B.Favorable.
C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段中的“‘Besides,’ says Epstein ... Would you?(‘此外,’Epstein说,‘我认为可能有些病人更愿意让医生用机器!’你会吗?)”可推知,Epstein对人工智能医生和护士的态度是赞许的。故选B。

Virtual (虚拟的) reality (VR) was just an idea in the past but now it is becoming more and more a reality. Researchers have predictions that virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same.
Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device, and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds.
Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business, virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel.
While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business.

B.To praise the development of virtual reality.
C.To state people's anxieties in terms of virtual reality.
D.To explain the influence of virtual reality on people's lives.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Researchers have predictions ... to do the same. (研究人员预测虚拟现实将对我们的社会产生巨大影响。正如智能手机改变了我们的生活,虚拟现实可能将同样做到这一点。)”可推知,第一段提到智能手机是为了说明虚拟现实对人类生活的影响。故选D。
6.In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology
A.It reduces the need for the communication.
B.It can provide an immersive experience.
C.It is applied to gaming and business.

9.答案:will be interacting
解析:考查动词的时态。设空处为主句的谓语动词,根据从句中的happens可知,主句应用将来时;根据时间状语on a daily basis可知,此处表示将来持续的动作,应用将来进行时。故填will be interacting。
10.答案:denying
解析:考查固定句型。句型There can be no denying that ... 表示“不可否认……”。故填denying。
精深阅读
If someone created a flying machine capable of tracking you down by listening for your voice, you might be terrified. But what if you were trapped in ruins after a natural disaster and first responders couldn't locate you Maybe then a human-seeking drone wouldn't be such a terrible idea. That concept is the focus for engineers at Germany's Fraunhofer FKIE Institute, who've built a drone to find people by detecting human screams.
“The human-seeking drone would be ideal for post-disaster situations, such as earthquakes, hurricanes and wildfires,” said Macarena Varela, one of the lead engineers. “They could hover over an area that rescue crews have difficulty getting to and locate exactly where people may be trapped.”
Locating people by sound presents its share of challenges. An auditory system would need to distinguish human cries from sounds that often happen in nature, such as animal calls and wind. It might also need to recognize patterns associated with kicking, clapping or other ways people try to get the attention of rescue teams.
Engineers took those situations into account when building out their concept drone. They recorded themselves screaming, tapping and creating other noises that might be a sign of people in trouble. Then, they analyzed each sound frequency to find common signatures and used those to train artificial intelligence software. They also worked to remove the noise created by the drone and other environmental sounds.
Once the software part was complete, the team placed tiny digital microphones under the drone and used signal processing techniques that enabled them to track where human noises are coming from. The microphones also enhanced the volume and clarity of the speech. So far, they have conducted successful open field experiments, finding that the drone can estimate a victim's location within a few seconds of picking up sound.
Next, they would like to add a higher frequency microphone to a drone to acquire more audio sound signals. The idea is to pick up noises from hundreds of meters away, Varela said. In the real world, victim's location data might one day be sent wirelessly to emergency crews carrying a tablet.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种通过探测人的尖叫来寻找人的无人机。
1.What is the advantage of the human-seeking drone
A.Its high speed of flying.
B.Its long working hours.
C.Its quick response to screams.
D.Its easy access to disaster scene.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They could hover ... may be trapped.(它们可以在救援人员难以到达的区域上空盘旋,并准确定位人们可能被困的地方。)”可知,这种寻人无人机的优势是比较容易进入到灾难发生地。故选D。
2.What can the auditory system do
A.Recognize human cries.
B.Pick up sounds from far away.
C.Send victim's location data to a tablet.
D.Improve the quality of human screams.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“An auditory system ... animal calls and wind.(听觉系统需要将人类的尖叫声与自然界经常发生的声音(如动物的叫声和风声)区分开来。)”可知,听觉系统能识别人的尖叫声。故选A。
3.What does the underlined word “signatures” in Paragraph 4 means
A.Effects. B.Symbols.
C.Features. D.Situations.
答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知,工程师然后分析每个声音频率,以找到共同的特征,并使用这些特征来训练人工智能软件。由此可推知,signatures意为“特征”。故选C。
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.AI Enables Drones to Give Better Performance
B.Human-seeking Drones Replace Rescue Crews
C.Engineers Teach Drones to Hunt Human Screams
D.Rescuers Use Drones to Locate Disaster Survivors
答案:C
解析:标题判断题。文章主要说明了工程师制造了一种通过探测人的尖叫来寻找人的无人机,并介绍了其优势以及工作原理。由此可知,C项(工程师教无人机捕捉人类的尖叫声)最适合作为文章标题。故选C。

Ⅰ 阅读
A
It's a typical day at school. You're playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you're in the nurse's office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) coming out of a ... robot Has the nurse's office been taken over by sci fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You've just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it's a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. “I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how.”
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn't need to take vacations. It doesn't need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what's wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn't meant to completely take the place of humans, though. “It would work with real, live nurses and doctors,” says Epstein, “there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who's hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient.”
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了未来机器人护士和医生的优点。
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. “Besides,” says Epstein, “I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!” Would you?
1.What's the function of Para. 1
A.To introduce a scientific study.
B.To lead to the topic of the text.
C.To describe an experience of the writer.
D.To give an example to support an argument.
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“You fly through the air ... from outer space?(你在空中飞翔。你迎面重重地着地!下一秒,你就在护士办公室了。你流血的鼻子正在接受激光传感器的检查。机器人吗?护士办公室是不是被来自外太空的科幻外星人占领了?)”和第二段中的“You could go up to the robot ... be treated, and how.(你可以走到机器人面前,把鼻子伸进去,机器就会决定你是否需要治疗,以及如何治疗。)”可推知,第一段引出文章的主题,即未来的机器人护士。故选B。
2.What can be inferred from Epstein's words in Para. 4
A.Humans are better at treating patients than AI doctors.
B.AI doctors alone can cure patients of most of the diseases.
C.Patients' trust in doctors may affect their treatments positively.
D.Patients may receive as much comfort from AI doctors as from humans.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“It would work with real ... a doctor and a patient.(Epstein (爱普斯坦)说:‘它将与真实的护士和医生一起工作,人类擅长的事情有很多,比如在我们自己的物种成员之间建立信任,或者安慰受伤或生病的人。医学的很大一部分是医患关系。’)”可推知,患者对医生的信任可能会对他们的治疗产生积极的影响。故选C。
3.What is true about AI doctors and nurses according to the text
A.They are better at trust building.
B.They will take over humans.
C.Their biggest strength is being cool.
D.They are life saving if properly used.

4.What's Epstein's attitude towards AI doctors and nurses
A.Negative.
B.Favorable.
C.Doubtful.
D.Unclear.
解析:推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段中的“‘Besides,’ says Epstein ... Would you?(‘此外,’Epstein说,‘我认为可能有些病人更愿意让医生用机器!’你会吗?)”可推知,Epstein对人工智能医生和护士的态度是赞许的。故选B。

Virtual (虚拟的) reality (VR) was just an idea in the past but now it is becoming more and more a reality. Researchers have predictions that virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same.
Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device, and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds.
Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business, virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了虚拟现实技术的现状及其对未来社会可能产生的影响,将其与过去的技术以及当前的应用进行对比,并展望了其未来的发展及应用。
While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business.
5.Why is the smartphone mentioned in the first paragraph
A.To show the popularity of virtual reality.
B.To praise the development of virtual reality.
C.To state people's anxieties in terms of virtual reality.
D.To explain the influence of virtual reality on people's lives.
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Researchers have predictions ... to do the same. (研究人员预测虚拟现实将对我们的社会产生巨大影响。正如智能手机改变了我们的生活,虚拟现实可能将同样做到这一点。)”可推知,第一段提到智能手机是为了说明虚拟现实对人类生活的影响。故选D。
6.In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology
A.It reduces the need for the communication.
B.It can provide an immersive experience.
C.It is applied to gaming and business.
D.It is more convenient to operate.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Until now technology ... to change that. (直到现在,技术一直是我们所看到,但从未真正沉浸其中的东西。虚拟现实有能力改变这一点。)”可知,虚拟现实技术不同于传统技术的地方在于它可以提供沉浸式体验。故选B。
7.What does the underlined word “expense” mean in the third paragraph
A.Tiredness. B.Schedule.
C.Stress. D.Cost.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing”可知,虚拟现实可以提供与真实事物一样好的体验,所以没有任何旅行的费用。由此可推知,expense指的是“旅行中的费用、成本”。故选D。
8.What can we expect of the virtual reality technology
A.It will help reduce technology costs.
B.It will take people away from reality.
C.It will be widely used in people's lives.
D.It will take the place of other technologies.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In time the cost will reduce ... in every home and business. (随着时间的推移,成本也将降低,使每个家庭和企业都获得VR体验成为可能。)”可推知,虚拟现实技术将会被广泛应用于人们的生活。故选C。

6.________ 7.________ 8.________ 9.________ 10.________
1.答案:known
2.答案:scientific
3.答案:into
解析:考查非谓语动词。短语be known as表示“被称为”,know与drones之间为被动关系,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填known。
解析:考查词性转换。应用形容词scientific修饰名词research。故填scientific。
解析:考查介词。短语come into use表示“开始被应用”。故填into。
4.答案:to deliver
5.答案:distribution
6.答案:that/which
解析:考查非谓语动词。be used to do sth 表示“被用来做某事”,应用动词不定式表示目的。故填to deliver。
解析:考查词性转换。根据设空前的the和设空后的of可知,此处应用名词作介词like的宾语,distribution“分配”为不可数名词。故填distribution。
解析:考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导定语从句,解释说明先行词places,指物,从句缺少主语,应用that或which引导。故填that/which。
7.答案:and
8.答案:Whatever
解析:考查连词。设空处前后为完整的分句,两个分句之间为并列关系,表示动作的承接,应用连词and。故填and。
解析:考查状语从句的连接词。句意:无论发生什么,我们每天都将与无人机互动。此处表示“无论什么”,应用whatever引导让步状语从句,位于句首,单词首字母应大写。故填Whatever。
9.答案:will be interacting
10.答案:denying
解析:考查动词的时态。设空处为主句的谓语动词,根据从句中的happens可知,主句应用将来时;根据时间状语on a daily basis可知,此处表示将来持续的动作,应用将来进行时。故填will be interacting。
解析:考查固定句型。句型There can be no denying that ... 表示“不可否认……”。故填denying。
If someone created a flying machine capable of tracking you down by listening for your voice, you might be terrified. But what if you were trapped in ruins after a natural disaster and first responders couldn't locate you Maybe then a human-seeking drone wouldn't be such a terrible idea. That concept is the focus for engineers at Germany's Fraunhofer FKIE Institute, who've built a drone to find people by detecting human screams.
精深阅读
“The human-seeking drone would be ideal for post-disaster situations, such as earthquakes, hurricanes and wildfires,” said Macarena Varela, one of the lead engineers. “They could hover over an area that rescue crews have difficulty getting to and locate exactly where people may be trapped.”
Locating people by sound presents its share of challenges. An auditory system would need to distinguish human cries from sounds that often happen in nature, such as animal calls and wind. It might also need to recognize patterns associated with kicking, clapping or other ways people try to get the attention of rescue teams.
Engineers took those situations into account when building out their concept drone. They recorded themselves screaming, tapping and creating other noises that might be a sign of people in trouble. Then, they analyzed each sound frequency to find common signatures and used those to train artificial intelligence software. They also worked to remove the noise created by the drone and other environmental sounds.
Once the software part was complete, the team placed tiny digital microphones under the drone and used signal processing techniques that enabled them to track where human noises are coming from. The microphones also enhanced the volume and clarity of the speech. So far, they have conducted successful open field experiments, finding that the drone can estimate a victim's location within a few seconds of picking up sound.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种通过探测人的尖叫来寻找人的无人机。
Next, they would like to add a higher frequency microphone to a drone to acquire more audio sound signals. The idea is to pick up noises from hundreds of meters away, Varela said. In the real world, victim's location data might one day be sent wirelessly to emergency crews carrying a tablet.
1.What is the advantage of the human-seeking drone
A.Its high speed of flying.
B.Its long working hours.
C.Its quick response to screams.
D.Its easy access to disaster scene.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They could hover ... may be trapped.(它们可以在救援人员难以到达的区域上空盘旋,并准确定位人们可能被困的地方。)”可知,这种寻人无人机的优势是比较容易进入到灾难发生地。故选D。
2.What can the auditory system do
A.Recognize human cries.
B.Pick up sounds from far away.
C.Send victim's location data to a tablet.
D.Improve the quality of human screams.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“An auditory system ... animal calls and wind.(听觉系统需要将人类的尖叫声与自然界经常发生的声音(如动物的叫声和风声)区分开来。)”可知,听觉系统能识别人的尖叫声。故选A。
3.What does the underlined word “signatures” in Paragraph 4 means
A.Effects.
B.Symbols.
C.Features.
D.Situations.
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知,工程师然后分析每个声音频率,以找到共同的特征,并使用这些特征来训练人工智能软件。由此可推知,signatures意为“特征”。故选C。
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.AI Enables Drones to Give Better Performance
B.Human-seeking Drones Replace Rescue Crews
C.Engineers Teach Drones to Hunt Human Screams
D.Rescuers Use Drones to Locate Disaster Survivors
解析:标题判断题。文章主要说明了工程师制造了一种通过探测人的尖叫来寻找人的无人机,并介绍了其优势以及工作原理。由此可知,C项(工程师教无人机捕捉人类的尖叫声)最适合作为文章标题。故选C。
