Abut 20 years ag, Daniel Hffman, a classically trained vilinist met a yung musician playing in the twn square in Marrakech, an ancient city in Mrcc. They cmmunicated in the little French they bth knew, but their main cmmn language was music. On the back f a mtrbike f the fellw vilinist, Hffman weaved thrugh the back streets f the city and then learned his first lessns in Andalusian music, the classical music f Nrth Africa.
That experience gave birth t an idea: What wuld it be like t try t learn hw t play different vilin styles arund the wrld in just ne week? Oh. yes, and at the end f that week, play a cncert. He even gt a name fr the cncept “musical extreme sprts”.
It tk him almst tw decades t launch that dream with a friend, wh intrduced him t the wnders f Kickstarter, a funding platfrm fr creative prjects. Up t nw, the dream has taken the frm f a new dcumentary currently airing n American public televisin statins called “Otherwise, It’s Just Firewd.”
In the dcumentary, Hffman travels t Cunty Clare, Ireland, where he takes lessns with James Kelly, a master Irish vilin player, fr less than a week and then perfrms tgether with him in frnt f an audience, many f whm are star Irish musicians.
The film is what Hffman hpes will be the first f an eventual series f shrt dcumentaries, shwing him learning t play the vilin in a variety f styles, including the flk music f suth India, Sweden, Greece, Rmania, and West Virginia.
That wuld add t his extensive repertire (全部曲目), which already includes Balkan, Middle Eastern, and Turkish styles. “The big jke is what’s the difference between the fiddle and the vilin? It’s the persn wh plays it,” says Niall Keegan, a traditinal flute player. “It’s the music yu make n it that makes it Irish r English r French r classical r jazz r whatever else. It’s hw we imagine it and hw we create thrugh it that make it and give it character.”
“Otherwise, it’s just firewd,” he says, wrds that became the film’s title.
25. Where des Hffman’s idea f musical extreme sprts cme frm?
A. His explratin f the lcal music.
B. His cperatin with the yung vilinist.
C. His sightseeing tur n a mtrbike seat.

A. help Hffman t becme a master vilin player
B. are funded by American public televisin statins

A. the pwer f diversified artistic expressin
B. the pleasure in learning traditinal music
C. the technique f instrument playing
D. the imprtance f famus artists

The Rise f Vice Technlgy
Vice technlgy has cme a lng way. Just a few years ag, it wuld have been unusable. But nw, thse wh fllw the technlgy knw that it has gt cnsiderably better.
Writing with yur vice raises several interesting questins. Hw difficult is it actually? Human speech invlves a lt mre starting and stpping with errrs and the need fr repairing brken sentences than yu may think. Even gifted speakers make mistakes. T turn the spken wrd int reasnable writing requires lts f planning. Yu’ll need sme kinds f ntes r ther rganisers t make it wrk.
Anther questin turning speech int writing raises is the style. Hw wuld writing make the change that peple speak their writing rather than type? Chances are that it wuld cme up with many mre shrt sentences and mre cncrete language, which is gd. It wuld prbably als rely n prepared phrases a lt mre ften, which is nt available when yu are speaking quickly.
T cnfirm this, a clumn was nt written, but dictated (听写). It was cmpsed frm brief ntes written dwn fr structure nly, and it was edited fr length, with all f the riginal errrs kept in. Here were the results. The first was that the literal accuracy was extremely high. There weren’t many cases where the sftware had heard ne wrd incrrectly and written dwn anther. But the ther result was that the readability f this clumn was rather bad. Obviusly, the blame is nt with the technlgy at all, which turns ut t be rather gd. Speaking int writing relies n a better human brain than the ne we currently pssess. Writing is hard. There’s a reasn it can’t be dne at the speed f speech, in real time.
T clarify the matter, this time paragraph breaks were added after the whle writing. Punctuatins (标点) had t be spken alud, and after a full stp, the first wrd in the new sentence was capitalized autmatically. Sme minr punctuatin marks were added t make it clearer. T imprve accuracy, peple “trained” the sftware befrehand, reading a prewritten passage alud. Actually it turns ut t be mre effective. All f these ensure the satisfactry cmpletin f turning speech int writing.
Language is the mst imprtant tl fr human interactin, and vice is ne beautiful part f language. With the maturity f mdern technlgy, it has given birth t a great change in the human-cmputer vice interactin.
28. Accrding t the passage, which helps t turn speech int writing in terms f style?
A. There is careful planning in advance.
B. Errrs and brken sentences are avided.
C. Peple type wrds as fast as they say them.
D The writing cntains mre prepared phrases.
29. T achieve better results, the authr mentins sme changes fr ______.
A. prcessing errrs in a clumn.
B. adding minr punctuatin marks.
C. increasing the number f brief ntes.
D. integrating shrt paragraphs in writing.
30. The authr suggests that ______.
A. human brains are respnsible fr pr dictated writing.
B. writing with vice prmises t imprve the quality f writing.
C. writing is an unnatural act that can hardly be learned and imprved.
D. technlgy has a lng way t g in the human-cmputer vice interactin.
31. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Why peple fully intend t turn speech int writing.
B What rle vice technlgy plays in imprving readability.
C. Where the human-cmputer vice interactin is at an advantage.
D. Hw vice technlgy enables the change frm speech int writing.
D
Cmmunities acrss the wrld are starting t ban facial recgnitin technlgies. The effrts are well intentined, but banning facial recgnitin is the wrng way t fight against mdern surveillance (监视). Generally, mdern mass surveillance has three brad cmpnents: identificatin, crrelatin and discriminatin.
Facial recgnitin is a technlgy that can be used t identify peple withut their cnsent. Once we are identified, the data abut wh we are and what we are ding can be crrelated with ther data. This might be mvement data, which can be used t “fllw” us as we mve thrughut ur day. It can be purchasing data, Internet brwsing data, r data abut wh we talk t via email r text. It might be data abut ur incme, ethnicity, lifestyle, prfessin and interests. There is an entire industry f data brkers wh make a living by selling ur data withut ur cnsent.
It’s nt just that they knw wh we are; it’s that they crrelate what they knw abut us t create prfiles abut wh we are and what ur interests are. The whle purpse f this prcess is fr cmpanies t treat individuals differently. We are shwn different ads n the Internet and receive different ffers fr credit cards. In the future, we might be treated differently when we walk int a stre, just as we currently are when we visit websites.
It desn’t matter which technlgy is used t identify peple. What’s imprtant is that we can be cnsistently identified ver time. We might be cmpletely annymus (匿名的) in a system that uses unique ckies t track us as we brwse the Internet, but the same prcess f crrelatin and discriminatin still ccurs.
Regulating this system means addressing all three steps f the prcess. A ban n facial recgnitin wn’t make any difference. The prblem is that we are being identified withut ur knwledge r cnsent, and sciety needs rules abut when that is permissible.
Similarly, we need rules abut hw ur data can be cmbined with ther data, and then bught and sld withut ur knwledge r cnsent. The data brker industry is almst entirely unregulated nw. Reasnable laws wuld prevent the wrst f their abuses.
Finally, we need better rules abut when and hw it is permissible fr cmpanies t discriminate. Discriminatin based n prtected characteristics like race and gender is already illegal, but thse rules are ineffectual against the current technlgies f surveillance and cntrl. When peple can be identified and their data crrelated at a speed and scale previusly unseen, we need new rules.
Tday, facial recgnitin technlgies are receiving the frce f the tech backlash (抵制), but fcusing n them misses the pint. We need t have a serius cnversatin abut all the technlgies f identificatin, crrelatin and discriminatin, and decide hw much we want t be spied n and what srts f influence we want them t have ver ur lives.
32. Accrding t Para 2, with facial recgnitin, .
A. ne’s lifestyle changes greatlyB. ne’s email cntent is disclsed
C. ne’s prfiles are updated in timeD. ne’s persnal infrmatin is released
33. We can learn frm the passage that .
A. discriminatin based n new tech surveillance is illegal
B different brwsing data bring in different advertisements
C. using mbiles annymusly keeps us frm being crrelated
D. data brkers cntrl the current technlgies f surveillance
34. The authr wrte this passage t .
A. call fr banning facial recgnitin technlgies
B. advcate the urgent need fr changes in related laws
C. infrm readers f the disadvantages f facial recgnitin
D. evaluate three brad cmpnents in mdern mass surveillance

Is there a link between scial media and depressin? D scial media have a negative impact n yur mental health? It’s cmplicated.
In a recent study, the investigatrs cmpared scial media use and depressin between teens.
___35___Specifically, fr every hur per day that ne teen spent n scial media mre than her peers, she likely had a 0.64 pint higher depressin scre.
A different study published in 2018 identified five distinct types f scial media users. The finding was that "prblematic scial media use" was ne f the main themes fr peple whse mental health was affected by scial media. Yu can have alchl in yur life withut it being a prblem, r yur alchl use may becme prblematic. ___36___
There's ne imprtant thing t remember abut survey research just because tw things happen tgether, it's nt necessarily true that ne causes the ther. ___37___Fr all we knw, it culd be that peple wh are already mre depressed chse t spend mre time n scial media.
___38___If yu think that we shuldn't paint scial media with ne brad brush, yu're n the right track. On the ne hand, participants ften described scial media as a valuable way t cpe with stress. On the ther hand, cyberbullying via scial media was als a cmmn experience fr participants. Sme als said that cnstantly checking their wn scial media prfile was stressful.
It’s certainly pssible that experiences like cyberbullying, cmparing yurself t idealized images, and cnstantly mnitring yur prfile, are bad fr yur md. It's als true fr many that scial media ffer cmmunity supprt and psitive messages. Given the incnclusive research, it's safe t say that at least we shuldn't write ff scial media altgether. ___39___Anyway, yu cannt use it as a crutch fr cping with ther stressrs and mental health prblems.
A. It's the same with scial media.
B. Scial media can be a duble-edged swrd.
C. Peple get mre pininated abut the ptential prblems f scial media.
D. They fund that thse wh used scial media mre had higher depressin scres.
E. They reviewed all existing research and fund that there were bth benefits and drawbacks.
F. The key t benefiting frm scial media may lie in using it in mderatin and staying scially cnnected.
G. Fr example, just because higher scial media use c-ccurs with higher levels f depressin desn't mean scial media use causes depressin.

The increase in nline educatin has allwed a new type f teacher t emerge—an artificial ne. But just hw accepting students are f an artificial instructr remains t be seen. That’s why researchers at the University f Central Flrida’s Nichlsn Schl f Cmmunicatin and Media are wrking t examine student perceptins f AI-based teachers. Sme f their findings published recently in the Internatinal Jurnal f Human-Cmputer Interactin, indicate that fr students t accept an AI teaching assistant, it needs t be effective and easy t talk t.
Accrding t Jihyun Kim, the lead authr f the study, the hpe is that by understanding hw students relate t Al-teachers, engineers and cmputer scientists can design them t easily integrate int the educatin experience.
“T use machine teachers effectively, we need t understand students’ views n machine teachers, their learning experiences with them and mre,” Kim says. “This line f research is needed t design effective machine teachers that can actually facilitate psitive learning experiences.”
AI teaching assistants can help ease a teacher's wrklad, such as by respnding t cmmnly asked questins by students. These questins, which ften appear each semester and becme numerus in nline classes with hundreds f students, can becme a large task fr a teacher. The quick delivery f answers als helps students.
An example f an AI teaching assistant is ne named Jill Watsn that was created by a researcher at the Gergia Institute f Technlgy. Jill was fed the thusands f questins and answers cmmnly asked in the researcher’s nline class that he’d taught ver the years. With sme additinal learning and adjustments, Jill was eventually able t answer the students’ cmmnly asked questins accurately withut any human assistance as if she was ne f the researcher’s human teaching assistants.
“I hpe ur research findings help us find an effective way t incrprate AI agents int educatin,” Kim says. “By adpting an AI agent as an assistant fr a simple and repetitive task, teachers wuld be able t have mre things scheduled such as meeting with students and develping teaching strategies.”
40. What kind f AI teaching assistants can students easily accept?
41. What d researchers need t d t design effective AI teaching assistants?
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
With the help f Al-based teaching assistants, human teachers can nt nly be relieved frm heavy wrk but als have mre time t answer cmmnly asked questins by students.
43. Explain hw AI technlgy can be used in a different field in ur life. (abut 40 wrds)

Abut 20 years ag, Daniel Hffman, a classically trained vilinist met a yung musician playing in the twn square in Marrakech, an ancient city in Mrcc. They cmmunicated in the little French they bth knew, but their main cmmn language was music. On the back f a mtrbike f the fellw vilinist, Hffman weaved thrugh the back streets f the city and then learned his first lessns in Andalusian music, the classical music f Nrth Africa.
That experience gave birth t an idea: What wuld it be like t try t learn hw t play different vilin styles arund the wrld in just ne week? Oh. yes, and at the end f that week, play a cncert. He even gt a name fr the cncept “musical extreme sprts”.
It tk him almst tw decades t launch that dream with a friend, wh intrduced him t the wnders f Kickstarter, a funding platfrm fr creative prjects. Up t nw, the dream has taken the frm f a new dcumentary currently airing n American public televisin statins called “Otherwise, It’s Just Firewd.”
In the dcumentary, Hffman travels t Cunty Clare, Ireland, where he takes lessns with James Kelly, a master Irish vilin player, fr less than a week and then perfrms tgether with him in frnt f an audience, many f whm are star Irish musicians.
The film is what Hffman hpes will be the first f an eventual series f shrt dcumentaries, shwing him learning t play the vilin in a variety f styles, including the flk music f suth India, Sweden, Greece, Rmania, and West Virginia.
That wuld add t his extensive repertire (全部曲目), which already includes Balkan, Middle Eastern, and Turkish styles. “The big jke is what’s the difference between the fiddle and the vilin? It’s the persn wh plays it,” says Niall Keegan, a traditinal flute player. “It’s the music yu make n it that makes it Irish r English r French r classical r jazz r whatever else. It’s hw we imagine it and hw we create thrugh it that make it and give it character.”
“Otherwise, it’s just firewd,” he says, wrds that became the film’s title.
25. Where des Hffman’s idea f musical extreme sprts cme frm?
A. His explratin f the lcal music.
B. His cperatin with the yung vilinist.
C. His sightseeing tur n a mtrbike seat.
D. His cnstantly changing taste in vilin styles.
26. Accrding t the passage, the series f dcumentaries ________.
A. help Hffman t becme a master vilin player
B. are funded by American public televisin statins
C. intrduce different styles f musicians arund the wrld
D. recrd Hffman’s experience in learning varius vilin styles
27. The title f the dcumentary “Otherwise, It’s Just Firewd” is used t emphasize ________.
A. the pwer f diversified artistic expressin
B. the pleasure in learning traditinal music
C. the technique f instrument playing
D. the imprtance f famus artists
【答案】25. A 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了小提琴家Daniel Hffman尝试学习如何演奏世界各地不同风格的小提琴,并将这段经历拍成了纪录片。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“On the back f a mtrbike f the fellw vilinist, Hffman weaved thrugh the back streets f the city and then learned his first lessns in Andalusian music, the classical music f Nrth Africa. (坐在小提琴手同伴的摩托车后座上,霍夫曼穿梭于城市的后街,然后开始学习安达卢西亚音乐,这是北非的古典音乐。)”和第二段“That experience gave birth t an idea: What wuld it be like t try t learn hw t play different vilin styles arund the wrld in just ne week? Oh. yes, and at the end f that week, play a cncert. He even gt a name fr the cncept ‘musical extreme sprts’. (这段经历让我产生了一个想法:在短短一周的时间里,尝试学习如何演奏世界各地不同风格的小提琴,会是什么感觉?哦。是的,在那个周末,开一场音乐会。他甚至为“音乐极限运动”这个概念取了个名字。)”可知,霍夫曼关于音乐极限运动的想法来自于对北非当地音乐的探索。故选A。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The film is what Hffman hpes will be the first f an eventual series f shrt dcumentaries, shwing him learning t play the vilin in a variety f styles, including the flk music f suth India, Sweden, Greece, Rmania, and West Virginia. (霍夫曼希望这部电影能成为一系列短纪录片的第一部,展示他如何学习以各种风格拉小提琴,包括南印度、瑞典、希腊、罗马尼亚和西弗吉尼亚州的民间音乐。)”可知,这个系列纪录片记录了霍夫曼学习各种小提琴风格的经历。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“‘The big jke is what’s the difference between the fiddle and the vilin? It’s the persn wh plays it,’ says Niall Keegan, a traditinal flute player. ‘It’s the music yu make n it that makes it Irish r English r French r classical r jazz r whatever else. It’s hw we imagine it and hw we create thrugh it that make it and give it character.’ (“最大的笑话是fiddle和vilin有什么区别?”,传统长笛演奏家尼尔·基根说:“是你在上面演奏的音乐让它成为爱尔兰音乐、英国音乐、法国音乐、古典音乐、爵士乐或其他任何音乐。是我们如何想象它,如何通过它创造,成就并赋予了它个性。”)”可推知,小提琴的价值在于多元的艺术表现,你在上面演奏的音乐赋予它个性,“否则,它就是一根木柴”,所以纪录片的标题“Otherwise, It’s Just Firewd”强调了多元艺术表达的力量。故选A。

The Rise f Vice Technlgy
Vice technlgy has cme a lng way. Just a few years ag, it wuld have been unusable. But nw, thse wh fllw the technlgy knw that it has gt cnsiderably better.
Writing with yur vice raises several interesting questins. Hw difficult is it actually? Human speech invlves a lt mre starting and stpping with errrs and the need fr repairing brken sentences than yu may think. Even gifted speakers make mistakes. T turn the spken wrd int reasnable writing requires lts f planning. Yu’ll need sme kinds f ntes r ther rganisers t make it wrk.
Anther questin turning speech int writing raises is the style. Hw wuld writing make the change that peple speak their writing rather than type? Chances are that it wuld cme up with many mre shrt sentences and mre cncrete language, which is gd. It wuld prbably als rely n prepared phrases a lt mre ften, which is nt available when yu are speaking quickly.
T cnfirm this, a clumn was nt written, but dictated (听写). It was cmpsed frm brief ntes written dwn fr structure nly, and it was edited fr length, with all f the riginal errrs kept in. Here were the results. The first was that the literal accuracy was extremely high. There weren’t many cases where the sftware had heard ne wrd incrrectly and written dwn anther. But the ther result was that the readability f this clumn was rather bad. Obviusly, the blame is nt with the technlgy at all, which turns ut t be rather gd. Speaking int writing relies n a better human brain than the ne we currently pssess. Writing is hard. There’s a reasn it can’t be dne at the speed f speech, in real time.
T clarify the matter, this time paragraph breaks were added after the whle writing. Punctuatins (标点) had t be spken alud, and after a full stp, the first wrd in the new sentence was capitalized autmatically. Sme minr punctuatin marks were added t make it clearer. T imprve accuracy, peple “trained” the sftware befrehand, reading a prewritten passage alud. Actually it turns ut t be mre effective. All f these ensure the satisfactry cmpletin f turning speech int writing.
Language is the mst imprtant tl fr human interactin, and vice is ne beautiful part f language. With the maturity f mdern technlgy, it has given birth t a great change in the human-cmputer vice interactin.
28. Accrding t the passage, which helps t turn speech int writing in terms f style?
A. There is careful planning in advance.
B. Errrs and brken sentences are avided.
C. Peple type wrds as fast as they say them.
D. The writing cntains mre prepared phrases.
29. T achieve better results, the authr mentins sme changes fr ______.
A. prcessing errrs in a clumn.
B. adding minr punctuatin marks.
C. increasing the number f brief ntes.
D. integrating shrt paragraphs in writing.
30. The authr suggests that ______.
A. human brains are respnsible fr pr dictated writing.
B. writing with vice prmises t imprve the quality f writing.
C. writing is an unnatural act that can hardly be learned and imprved.
D. technlgy has a lng way t g in the human-cmputer vice interactin.
31. What is the passage mainly abut?
A Why peple fully intend t turn speech int writing.
B. What rle vice technlgy plays in imprving readability.
C. Where the human-cmputer vice interactin is at an advantage.
D. Hw vice technlgy enables the change frm speech int writing.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要内容讲述是目前语音技术已经取得了长足的进步,随着技术的成熟,语音转换文字已经实现。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Anther questin turning speech int writing raises is the style. Hw wuld writing make the change that peple speak their writing rather than type? Chances are that it wuld cme up with many mre shrt sentences and mre cncrete language, which is gd. It wuld prbably als rely n prepared phrases a lt mre ften, which is nt available when yu are speaking quickly.(将语音转化为文字的另一个问题是文体。文字会如何改变人们用口语书写而不是打字?很有可能它会出现更多的短句和更具体的语言,这很好。也可能更多地依赖于准备好的短语,而当你的语速很快时,这就行不通了。)”可知文字中包含了更多已备好的短语会对按照文体方式把语音转化成文字有帮助,故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Sme minr punctuatin marks were added t make it clearer.(添加了一些小标点符号以使其更清晰。)”可知为了达到更好的效果,作者提到了一些修改,添加次要标点符号。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Obviusly, the blame is nt with the technlgy at all, which turns ut t be rather gd. Speaking int writing relies n a better human brain than the ne we currently pssess.(很明显,责任完全不在技术上,事实证明这是相当好的。语音转换文字依赖于一个比我们现在拥有的更好的人脑。)可知语音转换文字过程中的听写问题不是技术造成,而是需要更好的人类大脑,由此可知,作者表明:人类的大脑是造成听写能力差的原因。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Vice technlgy has cme a lng way. Just a few years ag, it wuld have been unusable. But nw, thse wh fllw the technlgy knw that it has gt cnsiderably better.(语音技术已经取得了长足的进步。就在几年前,它还无法使用。但是现在,那些关注这项技术的人知道它已经变得更好了。)”以及最后一段“With the maturity f mdern technlgy, it has given birth t a great change in the human-cmputer vice interactin.(随着现代技术的成熟,人机语音交互发生了巨大的变化。)”结合全文内容描述语音转换文字技术的现状可知,本文的主旨是:语音技术如何实现从语音到文字的转变。故选D项。

Cmmunities acrss the wrld are starting t ban facial recgnitin technlgies. The effrts are well intentined, but banning facial recgnitin is the wrng way t fight against mdern surveillance (监视). Generally, mdern mass surveillance has three brad cmpnents: identificatin, crrelatin and discriminatin.
Facial recgnitin is a technlgy that can be used t identify peple withut their cnsent. Once we are identified, the data abut wh we are and what we are ding can be crrelated with ther data. This might be mvement data, which can be used t “fllw” us as we mve thrughut ur day. It can be purchasing data, Internet brwsing data, r data abut wh we talk t via email r text. It might be data abut ur incme, ethnicity, lifestyle, prfessin and interests. There is an entire industry f data brkers wh make a living by selling ur data withut ur cnsent.
It’s nt just that they knw wh we are; it’s that they crrelate what they knw abut us t create prfiles abut wh we are and what ur interests are. The whle purpse f this prcess is fr cmpanies t treat individuals differently. We are shwn different ads n the Internet and receive different ffers fr credit cards. In the future, we might be treated differently when we walk int a stre, just as we currently are when we visit websites.
It desn’t matter which technlgy is used t identify peple. What’s imprtant is that we can be cnsistently identified ver time. We might be cmpletely annymus (匿名的) in a system that uses unique ckies t track us as we brwse the Internet, but the same prcess f crrelatin and discriminatin still ccurs.
Regulating this system means addressing all three steps f the prcess. A ban n facial recgnitin wn’t make any difference. The prblem is that we are being identified withut ur knwledge r cnsent, and sciety needs rules abut when that is permissible.
Similarly we need rules abut hw ur data can be cmbined with ther data, and then bught and sld withut ur knwledge r cnsent. The data brker industry is almst entirely unregulated nw. Reasnable laws wuld prevent the wrst f their abuses.
Finally, we need better rules abut when and hw it is permissible fr cmpanies t discriminate. Discriminatin based n prtected characteristics like race and gender is already illegal, but thse rules are ineffectual against the current technlgies f surveillance and cntrl. When peple can be identified and their data crrelated at a speed and scale previusly unseen, we need new rules.
Tday, facial recgnitin technlgies are receiving the frce f the tech backlash (抵制), but fcusing n them misses the pint. We need t have a serius cnversatin abut all the technlgies f identificatin, crrelatin and discriminatin, and decide hw much we want t be spied n and what srts f influence we want them t have ver ur lives.
32. Accrding t Para 2, with facial recgnitin, .
A. ne’s lifestyle changes greatlyB. ne’s email cntent is disclsed
C. ne’s prfiles are updated in timeD. ne’s persnal infrmatin is released
33. We can learn frm the passage that .
A. discriminatin based n new tech surveillance is illegal
B. different brwsing data bring in different advertisements
C. using mbiles annymusly keeps us frm being crrelated
D. data brkers cntrl the current technlgies f surveillance
34. The authr wrte this passage t .
A. call fr banning facial recgnitin technlgies
B. advcate the urgent need fr changes in related laws
C. infrm readers f the disadvantages f facial recgnitin
D. evaluate three brad cmpnents in mdern mass surveillance
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了面部识别技术造成的数据泄露。谈及了数据泄露造成的危害。最后提出了应该立法规范而不是完全限制面部识别技术。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第2段中“It might be data abut ur incme, ethnicity, lifestyle, prfessin and interests. There is an entire industry f data brkers wh make a living by selling ur data withut ur cnsent (它可能是关于我们的收入、种族、生活方式、职业和兴趣的数据。整个行业都有数据代理,他们在未经我们同意的情况下通过出售我们的数据谋生。)”可知,通过面部识别,一个人的个人信息会被泄露。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第3段中“The whle purpse f this prcess is fr cmpanies t treat individuals differently. We are shwn different ads n the Internet and receive different ffers fr credit cards (这个过程的全部目的是让公司区别对待个人。我们在互联网上看到不同的广告,并收到不同的信用卡优惠。)”可知,不同的浏览数据带来不同的广告。故选B项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Cmmunities acrss the wrld are starting t ban facial recgnitin technlgies. The effrts are well intentined, but banning facial recgnitin is the wrng way t fight against mdern surveillance (监视) (世界各地的社区都开始禁止面部识别技术。这些努力是出于善意,但禁止面部识别是对抗现代监控的错误方式。)”可知,禁止面部识别技术愿望是很好的,但禁止面部识别是错误的方式来对抗现代监控。另外通过第5段中的“Regulating this system means addressing all three steps f the prcess (规范这一系统意味着要解决这一过程的所有三个步骤。)”和第6段中的“Similarly, we need rules abut hw ur data can be cmbined with ther data (同样,我们需要关于如何将我们的数据与其他数据组合的规则)”可知,我们需要规则来规范。通过倒数第2段中“Finally, we need better rules abut when and hw it is permissible fr cmpanies t discriminate (最后,我们需要更好的规则来规定何时以及如何允许公司歧视)”可知,我们需要更好的规则来指导。故作者写这篇文章的目的是倡导修改相关法律。故选B项。

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求回答问题。
The increase in nline educatin has allwed a new type f teacher t emerge—an artificial ne. But just hw accepting students are f an artificial instructr remains t be seen. That’s why researchers at the University f Central Flrida’s Nichlsn Schl f Cmmunicatin and Media are wrking t examine student perceptins f AI-based teachers. Sme f their findings, published recently in the Internatinal Jurnal f Human-Cmputer Interactin, indicate that fr students t accept an AI teaching assistant, it needs t be effective and easy t talk t.
Accrding t Jihyun Kim the lead authr f the study, the hpe is that by understanding hw students relate t Al-teachers, engineers and cmputer scientists can design them t easily integrate int the educatin experience.
“T use machine teachers effectively, we need t understand students’ views n machine teachers, their learning experiences with them and mre,” Kim says. “This line f research is needed t design effective machine teachers that can actually facilitate psitive learning experiences.”
AI teaching assistants can help ease a teacher's wrklad, such as by respnding t cmmnly asked questins by students. These questins, which ften appear each semester and becme numerus in nline classes with hundreds f students, can becme a large task fr a teacher. The quick delivery f answers als helps students.
An example f an AI teaching assistant is ne named Jill Watsn that was created by a researcher at the Gergia Institute f Technlgy. Jill was fed the thusands f questins and answers cmmnly asked in the researcher’s nline class that he’d taught ver the years. With sme additinal learning and adjustments, Jill was eventually able t answer the students’ cmmnly asked questins accurately withut any human assistance as if she was ne f the researcher’s human teaching assistants.
“I hpe ur research findings help us find an effective way t incrprate AI agents int educatin,” Kim says. “By adpting an AI agent as an assistant fr a simple and repetitive task, teachers wuld be able t have mre things scheduled such as meeting with students and develping teaching strategies.”
40. What kind f AI teaching assistants can students easily accept?
41. What d researchers need t d t design effective AI teaching assistants?
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
With the help f Al-based teaching assistants, human teachers can nt nly be relieved frm heavy wrk but als have mre time t answer cmmnly asked questins by students.

【答案】40. Ones that are effective and easy t talk t.
41. They need t understand students' views n machine teachers, their learning experiences with them and mre.
42. Accrding t the passage, it is the AI-based teaching assistants rather than teachers that can answer cmmnly asked questins by students.
43. AI is widely used in the field f transprtatin. Using AI, the navigatin systems in cars and n cellphnes are able t recmmend the best rutes based n real time traffic data. Als, AI can be used t make self-driving vehicles mre cnvenient and much safer.
