Modern
technology
has
a
strong
influence
on
many
things
we
do.
In
fact,
technology
is
shaping
almost
every
part
of
our
day-to-day
existence,
including
education.
Ashok
Goel
is
a
professor
at
the
Georgia
Institute
of
Technology.
Every
term
over
300
graduate
students
take
his
class
on
artificial
intelligence
(AI).
The
students
never
meet
in
person.
All
of
the
classes
take
place
online
through
a
website.
Having
hundreds
of
students
in
a
class
means
Ashok
Goel
has
to
answer
thousands
of
questions.
He
has
eight
teaching
assistants
to
help
him.
But
even
that
is
not
enough
to
give
all
the
students
the
help
they
need.
So,
in
January,
he
decided
to
try
an
experiment.
At
the
start
of
the
spring
2016
semester,
he
added
a
new
member
to
his
teaching
team:
Jill
Watson.
She
was
able
to
answer
questions
faster
than
most
other
teaching
assistants.
And
she
was
available
24
hours
a
day.
It
was
only
at
the
end
of
the
semester
that
Goel’s
students
learned
Watson’s
secret:
she
was
not
a
real
person.
Jill
Watson
is
an
AI
computer
program.
Goel
said
only
two
students
came
close
to
predicting
Watson’s
true
identity.
He
was
worried
about
telling
his
students
because
he
thought
they
would
not
like
being
part
of
the
experiment.
But
once
they
learned
Watson’s
identity,
they
became
very
excited.
“Then,
you
know
what
happened?
They
not
only
asked
that
question
about
Jill,
‘Is
she
an
AI?’
Once
the
identity
of
Jill
was
revealed
they
also
asked
if
I
was
an
AI.”
Goel
now
uses
Watson
in
two
other
classes,
but
still
does
not
tell
his
students
which
of
his
teaching
assistants
is
a
computer
program.
He
hopes
this
technology
will
make
it
easier
for
teachers
to
create
their
own
programs
to
use
in
and
outside
the
classroom.
4.
How
does
Goel
give
his
students
help?
A.
Through
the
Internet.
B.
By
writing
to
them.
C.
By
face-to-face
teaching.
D.
Through
books.
5.
Why
did
Goel
decide
to
try
an
experiment?
A.
Because
some
questions
were
difficult
to
answer.
B.
Because
it
was
hard
to
satisfy
students’
need.
C.
Because
it
was
too
tired
to
answer
those
questions.
D.
Because
he
wanted
to
improve
students’
self-study
ability.
6.
What’s
the
students’
response
to
Jill
Watson?
A.
Surprised.
B.
Indifferent.
C.
Excited.
D.
Shocked.
7.
What’s
the
best
title
for
the
passage?

C
We
humans
love
to
stare
into
our
smart
devices.
We
gaze
for
hours-about
10
hours
and
39
minutes
a
day-at
our
computers,
smartphones,tablets
and
televisions.
Is
all
this
staring
bad
for
us?
It
might
be
mainly
because
as
we
stare
at
our
devices
we
are
exposing
ourselves
to
blue
light.
Blue
light
is
a
type
of
electromagnetic(电磁的)
radiation
with
a
very
short
wavelength
that
produces
a
high
amount
of
energy.
While
it’s
true
that
light
can
damage
our
eyes
under
certain
circumstances,
there’s
no
scientific
evidence
suggesting
that
blue
light
is
harmful
to
our
eyes.
But
many
people
still
think
it
is,
which
is
why
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
so
popular.
So
do
the
glasses
work?
“Everyone
is
very
concerned
that
blue
light
may
be
causing
damage
to
the
eye,
but
there’s
no
evidence
that
it
may
be
causing
serious
damage,”
Dr.
Rahul
Khurana,
clinical
spokesman
for
the
American
Academy
of
Ophthalmology,told
Business
Insider.
Blue
light
exposure
is
nothing
new.
In
fact,the
sun
is
the
largest
source
of
blue
light.
Moreover,
blue
light
is
also
present
in
LED
light.
But
if
blue
light
isn’t
harmful,
then
why
are
we
constantly
rubbing
our
eyes
when
we’re
looking
at
our
screens?
The
answer
is
eyestrain(眼疲劳):
More
than
60
percent
of
people
experience
eye
problems
associated
with
digital
eyestrain.
And
blue
light,
it
seems,
isn’t
the
cause.
Instead,
our
eyes
are
so
strained
because
most
of
us
blink
less
when
we
stare
at
our
digital
devices.
So
if
eyestrain
is
the
issue,
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
probably
of
little
use.
8.
What
do
we
know
about
blue
light?
A.
It
is
a
kind
of
nuclear
radiation.
B.
It
has
the
shortest
wavelength.
C.
It
may
come
from
electronic
devices.
D.
It
consumes
a
great
deal
of
energy.
9.
What
causes
the
popularity
of
blue-light-blocking
glasses?
A.
Evidence
of
their
benefits
to
eyes.
B.
Belief
in
blue
light's
harmful
effect.
C.
Widespread
use
of
smart
devices.
D.
Scientific
understanding
of
blue
light.
10.
What
can
be
inferred
from
Paragraph
4?
A.
Blue
light
exposure
is
hardly
avoidable.
B.
Eye
problems
are
not
easy
to
deal
with.
C.
Blue
light
may
connect
with
tired
eyes.
D.
Rubbing
eyes
makes
people
strained.
11.
According
to

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要向我们描述了蓝光是一种能产生大量能量的短波长的电磁辐射类型。人们错误地认为蓝光会对眼睛造成伤害,所以导致了防蓝光眼镜的流行。还解释了眼睛疲劳的真正原因,以及蓝色遮光镜是无效的。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中It
might
be
mainly
because
as
we
stare
at
our
devices
we
are
exposing
ourselves
to
blue
light.可知这可能主要是因为当我们盯着我们的设备时,我们把自己暴露在蓝光中。由此可知,蓝光可能来自电子设备。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中While
it’s
true
that
light
can
damage
our
eyes
under
certain
circumstances,
there’s
no
scientific
evidence
suggesting
that
blue
light

which
is
why
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
so
popular.可知虽然光线确实会在某些情况下伤害我们的眼睛,但是没有科学证据表明蓝光对我们的眼睛有害。但许多人仍然认为它是,这就是为什么防蓝光眼镜如此受欢迎的原因。由此可知,人们对蓝光的有害影响的观念导致了防蓝光眼镜的流行。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中In
fact,
the
sun
is
the
largest
source
of
blue
light.
Moreover,
blue
light
is
also
present
in
LED
light.可知事实上,太阳是蓝光的最大来源。此外,蓝光也存在于LED灯中。由此可推知,接触蓝光几乎是不可避免的。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中So
if
eyestrain
is
the
issue,
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
probably
of
little
use.可知因此,如果眼睛疲劳是问题所在,那么防蓝光眼镜可能用处不大。由此可知,戴上防蓝光眼镜可能没用。故选C。

Scientists
are
urging
that
deep
sea
metal
mining
should
be
stopped
temporarily.
They
warn
in
a
report
that
it
can
cause
severe
and
damaging
effects
on
Pacific
Ocean
areas.
The
recently-released
report
examined
more
than
250
published
studies
on
deep
Sea
mining.
The
research
was
examined
by
the
Deep
Sea
Mining
Campaign——a
collection
of
not-for
profit
organizations.
The
report
centers
on
mining
activities
related
to
small
metallic
particles(颗粒;
微粒),
called
nodules,
found
on
the
seabed.
The
material
can
contain
different
metals.
Increasing
demand
for
these
metals
has
led
to
a
rise
in
deep-sea
mining
operations.
The
metals
are
commonly
used
in
battery
manufacturing(制造)
and
other
technology
products.
However,
the
scientists
warn
that
mining
for
these
nodules
will
cause
irreversible(无法复原的)damage
to
an
ocean
already
under
pressure.
The
operations
will
affect
areas
across
the
South
Pacific,
including
the
nations
of
Kiribati,
the
Cook
Islands,
Nauru,
Tonga
and
Papua
New
Guinea.
The
report
notes
that
a
moratorium
is
the
only
responsible
way
to
move
forward
until
certain
conditions
surrounding
deep-sea
mining
can
be
met.
The
scientists
are
calling
for
additional
study
to
fully
understand
the
environmental,
social
and
economic
risks.
Andrew
Chin
is
the
report’s
lead
researcher.
He
says
in
a
statement
that
nodule
mining
will
likely
result
in
the
loss
of
sea
life
and
cause
damage
to
deep
seabeds
for
thousands
of
years.
He
adds
that
the
operations
can
put
people
at
risk
who
depend
on
the
ocean
and
its
continued
health.
A
company
planning
to
be
one
of
the
first
to
carry
out
mining
operations
in
the
area
is
Canada’s
Deep
Green,
which
aims
to
begin
by
2024.
It
seeks
to
mine
metallic
nodules
to
be
used
in
power
systems
for
electric
vehicles.
Deep
Green
Chief
Executive
Officer
Gerard
Barron
defended
the
company’s
plans
in
reaction
to
the
report.
He
said
deep-sea
mining
offered
the
best
replacement
for
surface
mining,
which
has
a
long
history
of
pollution
and
destroying
forests
and
wildlife.

Why
are
deep-sea
mining
operations
on
the
rise?
A.
More
metals
are
needed.

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了茶文化是中华文化的一个重要组成部分。随着经济的发展、时代的进步,文化休闲气息浓郁的现代茶馆已成为现代城市一道亮丽的风景线。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:一小杯茶蕴藏着中国人民的精神和智慧。分析句子结构可知,and前后为并列成分,空处需填名词和spirit并列作宾语。wisdom意为“智慧”,表抽象概念,不可数。故填wisdom。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在安静的日子里喝一杯茶似乎是最令人愉快的事情。空处修饰名词thing,需填形容词作定语,结合“the
most”可知,此处为形容词最高级作定语。故填enjoyable。
【43题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:就像咖啡一样,不同地区的茶也有不同的味道。此处陈述客观事实,使用一般现在时,主语为tea,谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填has。
【44题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:有的需要用小而精致的茶杯喝,有的可以用大碗喝。此处主语some和drink之间是动宾关系,需用被动语态,can为情态动词,后面用动词原形。故填be
drunk。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:中国人认为喝茶需要安静地喝,所以很多茶馆都坐落在胡同的一角,给顾客提供了一个非常安静舒适的环境,但快节奏的生活有时不允许这样。根据语境可知,此处上下文是因果关系,需用连词so连接。故填so。
【46题详解】
考查介词。句意同上。provide
sb.
with
sth.是固定短语,表示“提供某人某物”。故填with。
【47题详解】
考查代词。句意:因此,有一些茶店老板,就像星巴克一样,把他们的店设在市中心,为快速顾客提供服务。修饰名词shops需用形容词性物主代词。故填their。
【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意:以HEYTEA为例。take...as
an
example是固定短语,表示“以……为例”。故填an。
【49题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:2012年,它只是广东省一个小城市里的一个小茶馆。分析句子结构,已有谓语动词was,空处需填非谓语动词作后置定语,locate与其逻辑主语tea
shop之间是动宾关系,需用过去分词形式。故填located。
【50题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:排队一个小时以上买茶是家常便饭。句子已有谓语动词is,此处用动名词短语作主语,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Waiting。

2.考查形容词。句意同上。“keep+宾语+宾语补足语”为固定结构,此处需用形容词作宾语补足语。故将safely改为safe。
3.考查宾语从句。句意:看看他上周做了什么。此处引导宾语从句,从句缺少宾语,需用连接代词what引导。故将that改为what。
4.考查动词时态。句意:上周三,Dino救了我们邻居的孩子,他跑到汽车前面去拿他的球。根据时间状语“Last
Wednesday”可知,此处陈述过去发生的事情,使用一般过去时。故将run改为ran。
5.考查副词。句意:人们开车时会很生气,通常是因为一些愚蠢原因。
修饰angry用very,much是多余的。故将much去掉。
6.考查介词。句意同上。表示原因用介词for。故将on改为for。
7.考查代词。句意:上周四,当我妈妈停车让几个孩子过马路时,我们后面的司机开始对她大喊大叫。根据“my
mum”可知,此处表示“妈妈停车”,需用人称代词she。故将he改为she。
8.考查名词。句意同上。several修饰可数名词复数,child为可数名词,此处需用复数形式children。故将child改为children。
9.考查非谓语动词。句意:他很快就使他们改变了主意。make
sb.
do
sth.为固定用法,意为“让某人做某事”。故将changing改为change。
10.考查形容词。句意:多聪明的狗啊!分析句子可知,此处没有进行对比,不需要用形容词比较级。故将smarter改为smart。

【答案】Good
morning,
everyone!
It's
my
great
honor
to
speak
here.
As
we
all
know,
food
is
the
first
necessity
for
people.
It
provides
our
body
with
energy.
But
in
daily
life,
too
much
food
is
wasted,
which
makes
saving
food
urgent.
Then
what
should
we
do?
First,
we
should
always
prepare
a
proper
amount
of
food.
Besides,
when
dining
out,
we
shouldn't
order
too
much
food
and
if
any,
we
should
take
the
leftovers
home.
Finally,
we
should
help
raise
people's
awareness
of
saving,
which
can
be
an
effective
way
to
stop
food
waste
from
its
origin.
Saving
food
isn't
a
slogan;
it
should
take
root
in
our
heart.
I
hope
everyone
will
try
their
best
to
save
food
from
now
on.

Modern
technology
has
a
strong
influence
on
many
things
we
do.
In
fact,
technology
is
shaping
almost
every
part
of
our
day-to-day
existence,
including
education.
Ashok
Goel
is
a
professor
at
the
Georgia
Institute
of
Technology.
Every
term
over
300
graduate
students
take
his
class
on
artificial
intelligence
(AI).
The
students
never
meet
in
person.
All
of
the
classes
take
place
online
through
a
website.
Having
hundreds
of
students
in
a
class
means
Ashok
Goel
has
to
answer
thousands
of
questions.
He
has
eight
teaching
assistants
to
help
him.
But
even
that
is
not
enough
to
give
all
the
students
the
help
they
need.
So,
in
January,
he
decided
to
try
an
experiment.
At
the
start
of
the
spring
2016
semester,
he
added
a
new
member
to
his
teaching
team:
Jill
Watson.
She
was
able
to
answer
questions
faster
than
most
other
teaching
assistants.
And
she
was
available
24
hours
a
day.
It
was
only
at
the
end
of
the
semester
that
Goel’s
students
learned
Watson’s
secret:
she
was
not
a
real
person.
Jill
Watson
is
an
AI
computer
program.
Goel
said
only
two
students
came
close
to
predicting
Watson’s
true
identity.
He
was
worried
about
telling
his
students
because
he
thought
they
would
not
like
being
part
of
the
experiment.
But
once
they
learned
Watson’s
identity,
they
became
very
excited.
“Then,
you
know
what
happened?
They
not
only
asked
that
question
about
Jill,
‘Is
she
an
AI?’
Once
the
identity
of
Jill
was
revealed
they
also
asked
if
I
was
an
AI.”
Goel
now
uses
Watson
in
two
other
classes,
but
still
does
not
tell
his
students
which
of
his
teaching
assistants
is
a
computer
program.
He
hopes
this
technology
will
make
it
easier
for
teachers
to
create
their
own
programs
to
use
in
and
outside
the
classroom.
4.
How
does
Goel
give
his
students
help?
A.
Through
the
Internet.
B.
By
writing
to
them.
C.
By
face-to-face
teaching.
D.
Through
books.
5.
Why
did
Goel
decide
to
try
an
experiment?
A.
Because
some
questions
were
difficult
to
answer.
B.
Because
it
was
hard
to
satisfy
students’
need.
C.
Because
it
was
too
tired
to
answer
those
questions.
D.
Because
he
wanted
to
improve
students’
self-study
ability.
6.
What’s
the
students’
response
to
Jill
Watson?
A.
Surprised.
B.
Indifferent.
C.
Excited.
D.
Shocked.
7.

passage?
A.

B.

We
humans
love
to
stare
into
our
smart
devices.
We
gaze
for
hours-about
10
hours
and
39
minutes
a
day-at
our
computers,
smartphones,tablets
and
televisions.
Is
all
this
staring
bad
for
us?
It
might
be
mainly
because
as
we
stare
at
our
devices
we
are
exposing
ourselves
to
blue
light.
Blue
light
is
a
type
of
electromagnetic(电磁的)
radiation
with
a
very
short
wavelength
that
produces
a
high
amount
of
energy.
While
it’s
true
that
light
can
damage
our
eyes
under
certain
circumstances,
there’s
no
scientific
evidence
suggesting
that
blue
light
is
harmful
to
our
eyes.
But
many
people
still
think
it
is,
which
is
why
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
so
popular.
So
do
the
glasses
work?
“Everyone
is
very
concerned
that
blue
light
may
be
causing
damage
to
the
eye,
but
there’s
no
evidence
that
it
may
be
causing
serious
damage,”
Dr.
Rahul
Khurana,
clinical
spokesman
for
the
American
Academy
of
Ophthalmology,told
Business
Insider.
Blue
light
exposure
is
nothing
new.
In
fact,the
sun
is
the
largest
source
of
blue
light.
Moreover,
blue
light
is
also
present
in
LED
light.
But
if
blue
light
isn’t
harmful,
then
why
are
we
constantly
rubbing
our
eyes
when
we’re
looking
at
our
screens?
The
answer
is
eyestrain(眼疲劳):
More
than
60
percent
of
people
experience
eye
problems
associated
with
digital
eyestrain.
And
blue
light,
it
seems,
isn’t
the
cause.
Instead,
our
eyes
are
so
strained
because
most
of
us
blink
less
when
we
stare
at
our
digital
devices.
So
if
eyestrain
is
the
issue,
blue-light-blocking
glasses
are
probably
of
little
use.
8.
What
do
we
know
about
blue
light?
A.
It
is
a
kind
of
nuclear
radiation.
B.
It
has
the
shortest
wavelength.
C.
It
may
come
from
electronic
devices.
D.
It
consumes
a
great
deal
of
energy.
9.
What
causes
the
popularity
of
blue-light-blocking
glasses?
A.
Evidence
of
their
benefits
to
eyes.
B.
Belief
in
blue
light's
harmful
effect.
C.
Widespread
use
of
smart
devices.
D.
Scientific
understanding
of
blue
light.
10.
What
can
be
inferred
from
Paragraph
4?
A.
Blue
light
exposure
is
hardly
avoidable.
B.
Eye
problems
are
not
easy
to
deal
with.
C.
Blue
light
may
connect
with
tired
eyes.
D.
Rubbing
eyes
makes
people
strained.

Scientists
are
urging
that
deep
sea
metal
mining
should
be
stopped
temporarily.
They
warn
in
a
report
that
it
can
cause
severe
and
damaging
effects
on
Pacific
Ocean
areas.
The
recently-released
report
examined
more
than
250
published
studies
on
deep
Sea
mining.
The
research
was
examined
by
the
Deep
Sea
Mining
Campaign——a
collection
of
not-for
profit
organizations.
The
report
centers
on
mining
activities
related
to
small
metallic
particles(颗粒;
微粒),
called
nodules,
found
on
the
seabed.
The
material
can
contain
different
metals.
Increasing
demand
for
these
metals
has
led
to
a
rise
in
deep-sea
mining
operations.
The
metals
are
commonly
used
in
battery
manufacturing(制造)
and
other
technology
products.
However,
the
scientists
warn
that
mining
for
these
nodules
will
cause
irreversible(无法复原的)damage
to
an
ocean
already
under
pressure.
The
operations
will
affect
areas
across
the
South
Pacific,
including
the
nations
of
Kiribati,
the
Cook
Islands,
Nauru,
Tonga
and
Papua
New
Guinea.
The
report
notes
that
a
moratorium
is
the
only
responsible
way
to
move
forward
until
certain
conditions
surrounding
deep-sea
mining
can
be
met.
The
scientists
are
calling
for
additional
study
to
fully
understand
the
environmental,
social
and
economic
risks.
Andrew
Chin
is
the
report’s
lead
researcher.
He
says
in
a
statement
that
nodule
mining
will
likely
result
in
the
loss
of
sea
life
and
cause
damage
to
deep
seabeds
for
thousands
of
years.
He
adds
that
the
operations
can
put
people
at
risk
who
depend
on
the
ocean
and
its
continued
health.
A
company
planning
to
be
one
of
the
first
to
carry
out
mining
operations
in
the
area
is
Canada’s
Deep
Green,
which
aims
to
begin
by
2024.
It
seeks
to
mine
metallic
nodules
to
be
used
in
power
systems
for
electric
vehicles.
Deep
Green
Chief
Executive
Officer
Gerard
Barron
defended
the
company’s
plans
in
reaction
to
the
report.
He
said
deep-sea
mining
offered
the
best
replacement
for
surface
mining,
which
has
a
long
history
of
pollution
and
destroying
forests
and
wildlife.
12.
Why
are
deep-sea
mining
operations
on
the
rise?
A.
More
metals
are
needed.
B.
Surface
mining
is
banned,
C.
Battery
industry
is
falling.
D.
The
seabed
is
easy
to
find,
13.
Which
of
the
following
best
explains
the
word
“moratorium”
underlined
in
paragraph
4?
A.
Loose
measure.
B.
Thorough
study.
C.
Temporary
stop.
D.
Permanent
deal.
14.
What
can
we
learn
from
Andrew
Chin’s
words?
A.
Conditions
surrounding
deep-sea
mining
are
great.
B.
The
damage
caused
by
nodule
mining
is

mining
can
cause
harm
in
various
aspects.
D.
People
are
less
likely
to

About
one
hundred
years
ago
many
educated
people
learned
and
spoke
French
when
they
met
people
from
other
countries.Today
most
people
speak
English
when
they
meet
foreigners.
___16___
There
are
more
people
who
speak
English
as
a
second
language
than
people
who
speak
English
as
a
first
language.Why
is
this?
___17___
One
of
them
is
that
English
has
become
the
language
of
business.Another
important
reason
is
that
popular
American
culture(like
movies,music,and
McDonald’s)has
quickly
spread
throughout
the
world.___18___
Is
it
good
that
English
has
spread
to
all
parts
of
the
world
so
quickly?
___19___
It’s
important
to
have
a
language
that
the
people
of
the
earth
have
in
common.Our
world
has
become
very
global
and
we
need
to
communicate
with
one
another.On
the
other
hand,English
is
a
fairly
complicated
language
to
learn
and
it
brings
its
culture
with
it.Do
we
really
need
that?
Scientists
have
already
tried
to
create
an
artificial
language
that
isn’t
too
difficult
and
doesn’t
include
any
one
group’s
culture.
It
is
called
Esperanto.___20___
Maybe
the
popularity
of
English
won’t
last
that
long
either.Who
knows?
There
are
more
people
in
the
world
who
speak
Chinese
than
any
other
language.Maybe
someday
Chinese
will
be
the
new
international
language.
A.
People
like
English.
B.
But
it
hasn’t
become
popular.
C
It
has
brought
its

Dino
is
really
superhero,
who
helps
keep
us
safely,
especially
on
the
roads.
Take
a
look
at

did
last
week.
Last
Wednesday,
Dino
saved
our
neighbor’s
boy
who
run
in
front
of
a
car
to
get
his
ball.

angry
when
driving,
usually
on
silly
reasons.
Last
Thursday,
a
driver
behind
us
started
shouting
at
my
mum
when
he
stopped
the
car
to
let
several
child
cross
the
road.
Dino

made

shut
up.
Last
Friday,
Dino
saw
two
girls
running
a
red
light.
He
soon
made
them
changing
their
minds.
Last
Sunday
my
dad

phone
while
he
was
driving.
Dino

What
a
smarter
dog!
