She texts you back with casual jokes. But she, Xiaoice, is only a virtual chatbot（虛擬聊天機(jī)器人）.Xiaoice, Microsofts latest artificial intelligence robot, was briefly released in 2014, and returned to WeChat in 2015, where she became a big hit. Millions of young Chinese now exchange messages with her daily, The New York Times reported. On WeChat, Xiaoice is an official account. After following it, users can start text-based conversations with Xiaoice.Her incredible learning ability was why people loved to talk with Xiaoice, Liu Jinchang, a researcher at High-tech Research and Development Center under the Ministry of Science and Technology, told China Daily. Apart from her ability to identify photos and send emojis（表情符號(hào)） in conversations, Xiaoice gains 45 percent of her knowledge from interacting with users, China Daily reported.Chatbot programs first appeared in the mid-1960s in the US. Driven by top tech panies, they are being smarter and more mon. For instance, IBMs latest artificial intelligence program served as an academic consultant at Australias Deakin University, answering students questions about course schedules and financial aid. Apples Siri and Amazons Alexa have been used as voice assistants who can read news, play music and even make jokes for their users.These programs are expected to move beyond smartphones, into televisions, cars and living rooms, The New York Times pointed out. However, it may take decades before scientists develop a Samantha, the advanced chatbot seen in the fiction film Her. In the film, Samantha has a romantic relationship with her user played by US actor Joaquin Phoenix. Many viewers were enthusiastic about this fantasy of virtual soul mates.1.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A. She became a best seller.B. She became very powerful.C.

Chatbots will be applied to cars soon.B. Chatbots mainly run on smartphones now.C. Samantha is played by a US actor in the film.D. The film Her doesnt interest many audience. 【文章大意】本文講述的是人工智能程序的發(fā)展情況。列舉了微信上的聊天程序大受歡迎，IBM的人工智能程序能成為顧問(wèn)，但是目前這種程序主要應(yīng)用在智能手機(jī)上，人們期待它將來(lái)可以在手機(jī)以外的地方使用。1.D【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)she became a big hit. Millions of young Chinese now exchange messages with her daily可知，她在微信上大受歡迎，很多中國(guó)人都喜歡與她聊天，故選D。3.B【解析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中IBMs latest artificial intelligence program served as an academic consultant可知，IBM的最新人工智能程序可以作為學(xué)術(shù)顧問(wèn)，故選B。4.B【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中These programs are expected to move beyond smartphones, into televisions, cars and living rooms,可知，人們期待這些程序除了智能手機(jī)之外，也能應(yīng)用在電視、汽車、起居室等地，所以目前是主要應(yīng)用在智能手機(jī)上，故選B。BWe know a lot about the advantages and disadvantages of reading a hardcopy book vs. reading electronically. The problem is, many of us refuse to listen.Dont get me wrong: Digital reading has some real advantages. Ask people what they like most about reading on digital screens, and you hear over and over again about convenience. More points for digital reading：ebooks tend to be cheaper. Theres also the environmental argument. Think of the trees!Yet the soundness of this case is arguable. The earth metals to build ereaders are not just rare but highly poisonous. And think about all that energy needed to run servers and cooling fans. And remember, trees are a renewable resource.Then, theres the appeal of a hard copy. Many people prefer print when reading both for pleasure and for school or work. Drawing examples from my own research, some of the reasons are aesthetic(美學(xué)的). Others involve a sense of acplishment, ease of annotation(“I can write on the pages”), and navigation(“easy to locate where I was”). Meanwhile, I hear abundant plaints about eye strain(眼疲勞) and headaches when using screens.Much of what students liked about reading print involved their minds. They say “its easier to focus”. Some also acknowledged they took more time with printed text and read more carefully.But what makes the failure of electronic reading is concentration. More than 92% of those I surveyed said they concentrated best when reading a hard copy. When a digital device has an Internet connection, its hard to resist the temptation(誘惑)So if digital interruptions dont threaten your enjoyment or understanding of a text, then medium may not matter. Casual reading like David Baldacci? If you break to check sports scores, there will be little harm done. But just dont expect to understand Joyces novels this way.【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】文章主要介紹了在網(wǎng)絡(luò)高度發(fā)達(dá)的社會(huì)中，電子書(shū)愈來(lái)愈有替代紙質(zhì)書(shū)的趨勢(shì)，然而作者通過(guò)對(duì)比兩者的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)表達(dá)了對(duì)紙質(zhì)書(shū)的青睞。1What is an advantage of reading a hardcopy book?AIt is cheaper.BIt is easier to carry around.CIt helps people think deeper.DIt provides instant information.C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段可知，讀紙質(zhì)書(shū)能讓人更專注、更認(rèn)真，因此思考更深入。故選C項(xiàng)。2Whats the biggest problem of reading digitally?AEnvironmental concern.BPhysical disfort.CLack of concentration.DInternet connection.C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第六段中的第一句“But what makes the failure of electronic reading is concentration.”可知，電子書(shū)閱讀的最大問(wèn)題是缺乏專注。故選C項(xiàng)。3Whats the authors attitude toward ereading?ASupportive.BDisapproving.COptimistic.DUnconcerned.B解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三至六段尤其是最后一段可知，作者認(rèn)為，如果電子閱讀不會(huì)影響你閱讀的愉悅感和對(duì)文本的理解，那么無(wú)可厚非。但是讀類似喬伊斯的作品時(shí)就不是合適的選擇了。由此可推測(cè)，作者對(duì)電子閱讀持不贊成的態(tài)度。故選B項(xiàng)。4How is the passage mainly developed?ABy analyzing possible reasons.BBy providing typical examples.CBy listing practical suggestions.DBy presenting direct parisons.D解析：推理判斷題。文章的第二段主要講了電子書(shū)的好處，第三段講了電子書(shū)的缺點(diǎn)，第四、五段主要講了紙質(zhì)書(shū)的益處，第六段講了電子書(shū)的缺點(diǎn)。因此整個(gè)文章是通過(guò)比較來(lái)寫(xiě)作的。故選D項(xiàng)。三、書(shū)面表達(dá)。請(qǐng)根據(jù)下面圖片，寫(xiě)一篇英文演講稿。內(nèi)容要點(diǎn)如下：1.談?wù)勜毨絽^(qū)孩子的教育狀況。2.說(shuō)明“希望工程”的重要性。3.提出相應(yīng)的建議。注意：1.可根據(jù)內(nèi)容要點(diǎn)適當(dāng)增加細(xì)節(jié)，使行文連貫。2.詞數(shù)120左右。參考范文
