Jsefa Marin went t New Yrk frm Mexic in 1987, supprting her daughter back hme with the $140 a week she earned at a sweater factry. With that small incme, she had t cllect recyclables, trading in cans fr five cents each.
When the clthing factry clsed dwn in the late 2000s, she became a full-time recycler, picking up cans and bttles t make ends meet.
Marin’s stry is nt unique. Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. In New Yrk City, the administrative department cllects nly abut 28 percent f the cans that culd be recycled. Rubbish cllectrs, hwever, keep millins f additinal recyclables ut f landfills every year.
Yet cllectrs are ruled ut by gvernment plicies. The United States Supreme Curt in 1988 stated that husehld garbage is public prperty nce it’s n the street. That enables plice t search rubbish fr evidence, but that prtectin hasn’t always been extended t recyclers. And in places like New Yrk City, which is testing city-wned lcked cntainers t hide garbage frm rats, cntainers are made clearly inaccessible fr cllectrs.
“There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value shuld belng t the peple, nt the city r the crpratins”, says Ryan Castalia, directr f a nnprfit recycling and cmmunity center in Brklyn.
Recgnized r nt, waste pickers have lng been treated with disrespect. Marin recalls an ccasin when smene living next t a building where she was cllecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle desn’t mean I am less f a persn than anyne else,” she says. It’s a pity t see that the gvernment desn’t stand by the garbage cllectr’s side, either.
Frtunately, sme gvernments are starting t realize that prtecting the envirnment and humanity g hand in hand. Brazil classified waste picking as an fficial ccupatin in 2001. In 2009, Clmbia’s gvernment granted the right t cllect valuable garbage. The U.S. is slwly catching n t. After all, t the gvernment, the garbage is garbage, but t the cllectrs, it’s smething they make a living n.
8. What is the authr’s purpse f telling abut Marin?
A. T highlight waste cllectrs’ rle.
B. T reflect the unemplyed’s hardship.
C. T praise her devtin t her daughter.
D. T shw the seriusness f unemplyment.
9. Hw des the authr shw the imprtance f waste pickers’ wrk in paragraph 3?
A. By citing reference.B. By cntrasting.
C. By giving definitins.D. By cause-effect analysis.
10. What wuld Marin agree with?
A. N jb is nble r humble.B. Business is business.
C. The early birds catches wrms.D. One gd turn deserves anther.
11. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Wh wns ur garbage?B. Hw can we end pverty?
C. Wh takes blame fr waste?D. Hw shuld we recycle rubbish?
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章以Jsefa Marin的经历为例，介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战，他们依靠收集可回收物品来维持生计，在垃圾管理中扮演着重要的角色，但长期以来一直受到歧视和排斥，而且垃圾的归属一直以来也受到争议。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Marin’s stry is nt unique. Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. (Marin的故事并非个例。世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色)”可推知，作者讲述Marin的故事是为了突出她的角色——拾荒者的重要作用。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. In New Yrk City, the administrative department cllects nly abut 28 percent f the cans that culd be recycled. Rubbish cllectrs, hwever, keep millins f additinal recyclables ut f landfills every year. (世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色。在纽约市，管理部门只收集了28%可以回收的易拉罐。然而，垃圾收集者每年将数百万件额外的可回收物从垃圾填埋场中清除出来)”可知，作者通过对比说明了拾荒者的重要性。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Marin recalls an ccasin when smene living next t a building where she was cllecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle desn’t mean I am less f a persn than anyne else,” she says. (Marin回忆说，有一次，她正在收集罐头，隔壁的人向她泼水。她说：“因为我回收利用并不意味着我比其他人更不像一个人。”)”可知，Marin认为自己作为人的身份和尊严不受自己从事的拾荒工作而发生改变。因此，她会赞同“工作没有高低贵贱之分”的观点。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段中“The United States Supreme Curt in 1988 stated that husehld garbage is public prperty nce it’s n the street. That enables plice t search rubbish fr evidence, but that prtectin hasn’t always been extended t recyclers. And in places like New Yrk City, which is testing city-wned lcked cntainers t hide garbage frm rats, cntainers are made clearly inaccessible fr cllectrs. (1988年，美国最高法院声明，生活垃圾一旦被扔到街上，就是公共财产。这使得警察能够在垃圾中寻找证据，但这种保护并不总是延伸到回收者。在纽约市这样的地方，正在测试城市拥有的上锁容器，以防止老鼠进入垃圾，这些容器显然不能让收集者进入)”以及第五段“‘There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value shuld belng t the peple, nt the city r the crpratins’, says Ryan Castalia, directr f a nnprfit recycling and cmmunity center in Brklyn. (布鲁克林一家非营利性回收和社区中心的主管Ryan Castalia说：“垃圾中有价值，我们觉得价值应该属于人民，而不是城市或公司。”)”可知，文章围绕拾荒者这一话题展开，以Jsefa Marin的经历为例，介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战，并探讨了一直以来受到争议的垃圾归属的问题。因此，A项“谁拥有我们的垃圾？”最契合文章内容，适合作为本文标题。故选A。
D
Cmputer scientists have hped t give rbts technical skills t help them recgnize, prcess and react t humr. But these attempts have mstly failed. AI (人工智能) experts say that in many cases, attempts t make rbts understand humr end up prducing funny results, but nt in the way they were suppsed t.
Tristan Miller studied mre than 10,000 puns (双关语) in ne research prject. The pun is a kind f jke that uses a wrd with tw meanings. Fr example, yu culd say, “Ballns d nt like pp music.” The wrd “pp” can be a way f saying ppular music; r can mean the sund a balln makes when it expldes. But a rbt might nt get the jke. Tristan Miller says that is because humr is a kind f creative language that is extremely difficult fr cmputer intelligence t understand.
Allisn Bishp is a cmputer scientist and she als perfrms stand-up cmedy. She explained that machines are trained t lk fr patterns. Cmedy, n the ther hand, relies n things that stay dse t a pattern, kit nt cmpletely within it. T be funny, humr shuld als nt be predictable, Bishp said. This sets a great bstacle fr a machine t recgnize and understand what is funny.
Bishp says since rbts have great difficulty understanding humr, she feels like it gives her better jb security as a cmedy perfrmer. It even made her parents happy when her brther decided t becme a full-time cmedy writer because it meant he wuldn’t be replaced by a machine, she added.
Despite the difficulties, Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted. Humans use sarcasm t say ne thing but mean anther. But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.
12. What des the authr mst prbably want t shw in Paragraph 1?
A. Rbts’ influence n the scientific develpment.
B. Rbts’ challenges f making sense f humr.
C. Cmputer scientists’ devtin t technical skills.
D. Cmputer scientists’ cncern abut AI’s develpment.
13. Examples mentined in Paragraphs 2 and 3 are intended t ___________-.
A. prve rbts d prly in funny wrk
B. explain rbts aren’t as intelligent as humans
C. describe language is cmplex and changeable
D. shw language can’t be taught in a set pattern
14. What des the underlined wrd “bstacle” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Barrier.B. Recrd.
C. Message.D. Pssibility.
15. What can we infer abut teaching AI system humr frm the last paragraph?
A. It will end up in vain.
B. It may be a duble-edged swrd.
C. It may help imprve humans’ humr.
D. It will attract mre cmputer scientists.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了教机器人理解幽默存在的挑战以及科学家们对教智能机器人理解幽默的不同观点。
12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段内容，特别是根据“Cmputer scientists have hped t give rbts technical skills t help them recgnize, prcess and react t humr. But these attempts have mstly failed.”可知，计算机科学家希望赋予机器人技术技能来帮助他们识别、处理幽默，并且能够对幽默做出反应，但这些尝试大多都失败了，由此可知，在本段作者主要是想说明机器人在理解幽默方面存在不小的挑战，故B项正确。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“humr is a kind f creative language that is extremely difficult fr cmputer intelligence t understand”可知，幽默是一种创造性的语言，计算机很难理解，再根据第三段中的“She explained that machines are trained t lk fr patterns.”可知，她解释说机器是经过训练来寻找模式的，由此可知，这两段的例子是想表明语言不能以模式化的方式习得，故D项正确。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“T be funny, humr shuld als nt be predictable, Bishp said.”可知，毕肖普说，有趣的是，幽默也不应该是可预测的，因此此处是说这给机器识别和理解有趣的东西设置了很大的障碍，由此可知画线词词义为“障碍”，故A项正确。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted.”可知，达姆施塔特大学的米勒说，有很好的理由继续尝试教机器人幽默，他指出，这可能会使机器更具亲和力，特别是如果它们能够学会理解讽刺的话，再根据“But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.”可知，但是Kiki Hempelmann的想法不同，他说：“教授人工智能系统幽默可能会让它们在不合适的地方找到幽默，在不合适的地方使用幽默”，他补充说：“也许坏的人工智能会开始杀人，因为它认为有些事情很有趣”，根据这两位科学家的观点可知，教智能机器人幽默有利有弊，因而是一把双刃剑，故B项正确。
【点睛】本篇第4题推理判断题难度较大，抓住两位科学家的观点是关键，根据最后一段中的“Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted.”可知，达姆施塔特大学的米勒说，有很好的理由继续尝试教机器人幽默，他指出，这可能会使机器更具亲和力，特别是如果它们能够学会理解讽刺的话，再根据“But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.”可知，但是Kiki Hempelmann的想法不同，他说：“教授人工智能系统幽默可能会让它们在不合适的地方找到幽默，在不合适的地方使用幽默”，他补充说：“也许坏的人工智能会开始杀人，因为它认为有些事情很有趣”，根据这两位科学家的观点可知，教智能机器人幽默有利有弊，因而是一把双刃剑，故B项正确。

【16题详解】
根据上文“Peple are always living with technlgy nwadays. Here cmes a smart hme, which is cntrlled by the tuch f a buttn.(现在人们的生活和科技密不可分。智能家居问世了，只要按一下按钮就可以控制)”以及后文“This acts like a remte cntrl t activate husehld systems and mnitr inside temperatures. If dne successfully, a smart hme system will be integrated s seamlessly that a husehld will appear t run itself.(它就像一个遥控器，可以激活家用系统并监控室内温度。如果成功的话，一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成，以至于一个家庭似乎可以自己运行)”可知，本段落向读者介绍智能房屋，后文提到了一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成，本句是在说明家庭自动化系统将房子连接起来的方式。由此可知，E. Thrugh hme autmatin, an entire huse can be cnnected via a smart cntrller.(通过家庭自动化，整个房子可以通过智能控制器连接起来)符合语境。故选E项。

(家庭自动化的目的是提高家庭的效率)”及下文“An efficient smart hme uses sensrs t prevent ver watering f utdr gardens and cntrl rm temperatures, all f which can reduce expenses. In additin t cst savings, hme autmatin ften prvides a sense f security t hmewners. (高效的智能家居使用传感器来防止室外花园浇水过多和控制室内温度，所有这些都可以减少费用。除了节省成本外，家庭自动化还经常为房主提供安全感)”可知，本段落介绍智能家居节能，后文提到了节省成本，推测本句启示后文，是在说明家庭自动化可以省钱。由此可知，B. It achieves this by saving hmewners time and mney.(它通过节省房主的时间和金钱来实现这一点)承上启下，符合语境，this指代上文intrduce efficiency t a hme，saving hmewners time and mney呼应下文reduce expenses。故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Families with children r elderly adults in the hme may be reassured by sme safeguards in smart hme security, like fire alarms that alert the apprpriate agencies in the event f a prblem. Lighting activatin runs n timers, which can be a life saver if an ven is left n when smene leaves the hme. (家里有小孩或老人的家庭可以通过智能家居安全的一些保障措施来获得安心，比如火灾报警器，当出现问题时，它会向有关机构发出警报。当有人离开家时，如果烤箱还开着，那么照明激活就可以通过计时器来实现)”可知，上文讲了智能家居可以解决有老人小孩的家庭的安全问题。由此可知F. Besides prtecting peple, it als ffers security fr expensive items inside a residence.(除了保护人们，它还为住宅内的贵重物品提供安全保护)又补充了智能家居对财产的保护，还是安全问题，符合语境。故选F项。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Hme autmatin is nt just fr safety, hwever. (然而，家庭自动化不仅仅是为了安全)”及后文“With a centralized cntrl unit, a persn des nt have t leave the cuch t turn dwn the blinds r even rder grceries, which can be autmated.(有了一个集中控制单元，一个人不必离开沙发就可以拉下百叶窗，甚至可以自动订购杂货)”可知，本句承接上文，继续说明家庭自动化的其他好处，结合后文的例子可知，家庭自动化提供了方便。由此可知D. It can als prvide cnvenience fr peple living in the hme.(它也可以为生活在家里的人提供方便)符合语境，关键词cnvenience呼应下文。故选D项。
【20题详解】
本空为段首句，根据下文“Such a hme becmes dependent n technlgy fr rutine tasks. If smething ges wrng with the central autmatin unit, it is nt just ne appliance at risk as malfunctins can disrupt systems that are vital t running a hme. As a result, fr all peple, a hme can becme a place f technical faults that repeatedly require repair. (这样的家庭变得依赖于技术来完成日常任务。如果中央自动化单元出现问题，就不仅仅是一台设备有风险，因为故障可能会破坏对家庭正常运行至关重要的系统。因此，对所有人来说，家都可能成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方)”可知，本段提到智能家居可能存在故障，让家成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方，即存在缺点。由此可知C. There are sme drawbacks with an autmated hme system.(自动化家庭系统有一些缺点)符合语境。故选C项。

Jsefa Marin went t New Yrk frm Mexic in 1987, supprting her daughter back hme with the $140 a week she earned at a sweater factry. With that small incme, she had t cllect recyclables, trading in cans fr five cents each.
When the clthing factry clsed dwn in the late 2000s, she became a full-time recycler, picking up cans and bttles t make ends meet.
Marin’s stry is nt unique. Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. In New Yrk City, the administrative department cllects nly abut 28 percent f the cans that culd be recycled. Rubbish cllectrs, hwever, keep millins f additinal recyclables ut f landfills every year.
Yet cllectrs are ruled ut by gvernment plicies. The United States Supreme Curt in 1988 stated that husehld garbage is public prperty nce it’s n the street. That enables plice t search rubbish fr evidence, but that prtectin hasn’t always been extended t recyclers. And in places like New Yrk City, which is testing city-wned lcked cntainers t hide garbage frm rats, cntainers are made clearly inaccessible fr cllectrs.
“There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value shuld belng t the peple, nt the city r the crpratins”, says Ryan Castalia, directr f a nnprfit recycling and cmmunity center in Brklyn.
Recgnized r nt, waste pickers have lng been treated with disrespect. Marin recalls an ccasin when smene living next t a building where she was cllecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle desn’t mean I am less f a persn than anyne else,” she says. It’s a pity t see that the gvernment desn’t stand by the garbage cllectr’s side, either.
Frtunately, sme gvernments are starting t realize that prtecting the envirnment and humanity g hand in hand. Brazil classified waste picking as an fficial ccupatin in 2001. In 2009, Clmbia’s gvernment granted the right t cllect valuable garbage. The U.S. is slwly catching n t. After all, t the gvernment, the garbage is garbage, but t the cllectrs, it’s smething they make a living n.
8. What is the authr’s purpse f telling abut Marin?
A. T highlight waste cllectrs’ rle.
B. T reflect the unemplyed’s hardship.
C. T praise her devtin t her daughter.
D. T shw the seriusness f unemplyment.
9. Hw des the authr shw the imprtance f waste pickers’ wrk in paragraph 3?
A. By citing reference.B. By cntrasting.
C. By giving definitins.D. By cause-effect analysis.
10. What wuld Marin agree with?
A. N jb is nble r humble.B. Business is business.
C. The early birds catches wrms.D. One gd turn deserves anther.
11. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Wh wns ur garbage?B. Hw can we end pverty?
C. Wh takes blame fr waste?D. Hw shuld we recycle rubbish?
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章以Jsefa Marin的经历为例，介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战，他们依靠收集可回收物品来维持生计，在垃圾管理中扮演着重要的角色，但长期以来一直受到歧视和排斥，而且垃圾的归属一直以来也受到争议。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Marin’s stry is nt unique. Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. (Marin的故事并非个例。世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色)”可推知，作者讲述Marin的故事是为了突出她的角色——拾荒者的重要作用。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Millins arund the wrld make a living frm picking thrugh waste and reselling it—a vital rle that keeps waste manageable. In New Yrk City, the administrative department cllects nly abut 28 percent f the cans that culd be recycled. Rubbish cllectrs, hwever, keep millins f additinal recyclables ut f landfills every year. (世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色。在纽约市，管理部门只收集了28%可以回收的易拉罐。然而，垃圾收集者每年将数百万件额外的可回收物从垃圾填埋场中清除出来)”可知，作者通过对比说明了拾荒者的重要性。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Marin recalls an ccasin when smene living next t a building where she was cllecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle desn’t mean I am less f a persn than anyne else,” she says. (Marin回忆说，有一次，她正在收集罐头，隔壁的人向她泼水。她说：“因为我回收利用并不意味着我比其他人更不像一个人。”)”可知，Marin认为自己作为人的身份和尊严不受自己从事的拾荒工作而发生改变。因此，她会赞同“工作没有高低贵贱之分”的观点。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段中“The United States Supreme Curt in 1988 stated that husehld garbage is public prperty nce it’s n the street. That enables plice t search rubbish fr evidence, but that prtectin hasn’t always been extended t recyclers. And in places like New Yrk City, which is testing city-wned lcked cntainers t hide garbage frm rats, cntainers are made clearly inaccessible fr cllectrs. (1988年，美国最高法院声明，生活垃圾一旦被扔到街上，就是公共财产。这使得警察能够在垃圾中寻找证据，但这种保护并不总是延伸到回收者。在纽约市这样的地方，正在测试城市拥有的上锁容器，以防止老鼠进入垃圾，这些容器显然不能让收集者进入)”以及第五段“‘There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value shuld belng t the peple, nt the city r the crpratins’, says Ryan Castalia, directr f a nnprfit recycling and cmmunity center in Brklyn. (布鲁克林一家非营利性回收和社区中心的主管Ryan Castalia说：“垃圾中有价值，我们觉得价值应该属于人民，而不是城市或公司。”)”可知，文章围绕拾荒者这一话题展开，以Jsefa Marin的经历为例，介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战，并探讨了一直以来受到争议的垃圾归属的问题。因此，A项“谁拥有我们的垃圾？”最契合文章内容，适合作为本文标题。故选A。
D
Cmputer scientists have hped t give rbts technical skills t help them recgnize, prcess and react t humr. But these attempts have mstly failed. AI (人工智能) experts say that in many cases, attempts t make rbts understand humr end up prducing funny results, but nt in the way they were suppsed t.
Tristan Miller studied mre than 10,000 puns (双关语) in ne research prject. The pun is a kind f jke that uses a wrd with tw meanings. Fr example, yu culd say, “Ballns d nt like pp music.” The wrd “pp” can be a way f saying ppular music; r can mean the sund a balln makes when it expldes. But a rbt might nt get the jke. Tristan Miller says that is because humr is a kind f creative language that is extremely difficult fr cmputer intelligence t understand.
Allisn Bishp is a cmputer scientist and she als perfrms stand-up cmedy. She explained that machines are trained t lk fr patterns. Cmedy, n the ther hand, relies n things that stay dse t a pattern, kit nt cmpletely within it. T be funny, humr shuld als nt be predictable, Bishp said. This sets a great bstacle fr a machine t recgnize and understand what is funny.
Bishp says since rbts have great difficulty understanding humr, she feels like it gives her better jb security as a cmedy perfrmer. It even made her parents happy when her brther decided t becme a full-time cmedy writer because it meant he wuldn’t be replaced by a machine, she added.
Despite the difficulties, Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted. Humans use sarcasm t say ne thing but mean anther. But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.
12. What des the authr mst prbably want t shw in Paragraph 1?
A. Rbts’ influence n the scientific develpment.
B. Rbts’ challenges f making sense f humr.
C. Cmputer scientists’ devtin t technical skills.
D. Cmputer scientists’ cncern abut AI’s develpment.
13. Examples mentined in Paragraphs 2 and 3 are intended t ___________-.
A. prve rbts d prly in funny wrk
B. explain rbts aren’t as intelligent as humans
C. describe language is cmplex and changeable
D. shw language can’t be taught in a set pattern
14. What des the underlined wrd “bstacle” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Barrier.B. Recrd.
C. Message.D. Pssibility.
15. What can we infer abut teaching AI system humr frm the last paragraph?
A. It will end up in vain.
B. It may be a duble-edged swrd.
C. It may help imprve humans’ humr.
D. It will attract mre cmputer scientists.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了教机器人理解幽默存在的挑战以及科学家们对教智能机器人理解幽默的不同观点。
12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段内容，特别是根据“Cmputer scientists have hped t give rbts technical skills t help them recgnize, prcess and react t humr. But these attempts have mstly failed.”可知，计算机科学家希望赋予机器人技术技能来帮助他们识别、处理幽默，并且能够对幽默做出反应，但这些尝试大多都失败了，由此可知，在本段作者主要是想说明机器人在理解幽默方面存在不小的挑战，故B项正确。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“humr is a kind f creative language that is extremely difficult fr cmputer intelligence t understand”可知，幽默是一种创造性的语言，计算机很难理解，再根据第三段中的“She explained that machines are trained t lk fr patterns.”可知，她解释说机器是经过训练来寻找模式的，由此可知，这两段的例子是想表明语言不能以模式化的方式习得，故D项正确。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“T be funny, humr shuld als nt be predictable, Bishp said.”可知，毕肖普说，有趣的是，幽默也不应该是可预测的，因此此处是说这给机器识别和理解有趣的东西设置了很大的障碍，由此可知画线词词义为“障碍”，故A项正确。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted.”可知，达姆施塔特大学的米勒说，有很好的理由继续尝试教机器人幽默，他指出，这可能会使机器更具亲和力，特别是如果它们能够学会理解讽刺的话，再根据“But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.”可知，但是Kiki Hempelmann的想法不同，他说：“教授人工智能系统幽默可能会让它们在不合适的地方找到幽默，在不合适的地方使用幽默”，他补充说：“也许坏的人工智能会开始杀人，因为它认为有些事情很有趣”，根据这两位科学家的观点可知，教智能机器人幽默有利有弊，因而是一把双刃剑，故B项正确。
【点睛】本篇第4题推理判断题难度较大，抓住两位科学家的观点是关键，根据最后一段中的“Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are gd reasns t keep trying t teach humr t rbts. It culd make machines mre relatable, especially if they can learn t understand sarcasm (讽刺), he nted.”可知，达姆施塔特大学的米勒说，有很好的理由继续尝试教机器人幽默，他指出，这可能会使机器更具亲和力，特别是如果它们能够学会理解讽刺的话，再根据“But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humr may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s inapprpriate,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing peple because it thinks smething is funny,” he added.”可知，但是Kiki Hempelmann的想法不同，他说：“教授人工智能系统幽默可能会让它们在不合适的地方找到幽默，在不合适的地方使用幽默”，他补充说：“也许坏的人工智能会开始杀人，因为它认为有些事情很有趣”，根据这两位科学家的观点可知，教智能机器人幽默有利有弊，因而是一把双刃剑，故B项正确。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了智能家居的工作方式以及好处。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Peple are always living with technlgy nwadays. Here cmes a smart hme, which is cntrlled by the tuch f a buttn.(现在人们的生活和科技密不可分。智能家居问世了，只要按一下按钮就可以控制)”以及后文“This acts like a remte cntrl t activate husehld systems and mnitr inside temperatures. If dne successfully, a smart hme system will be integrated s seamlessly that a husehld will appear t run itself.(它就像一个遥控器，可以激活家用系统并监控室内温度。如果成功的话，一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成，以至于一个家庭似乎可以自己运行)”可知，本段落向读者介绍智能房屋，后文提到了一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成，本句是在说明家庭自动化系统将房子连接起来的方式。由此可知，E. Thrugh hme autmatin, an entire huse can be cnnected via a smart cntrller.(通过家庭自动化，整个房子可以通过智能控制器连接起来)符合语境。故选E项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Hme autmatin is designed t intrduce efficiency t a hme. (家庭自动化的目的是提高家庭的效率)”及下文“An efficient smart hme uses sensrs t prevent ver watering f utdr gardens and cntrl rm temperatures, all f which can reduce expenses. In additin t cst savings, hme autmatin ften prvides a sense f security t hmewners. (高效的智能家居使用传感器来防止室外花园浇水过多和控制室内温度，所有这些都可以减少费用。除了节省成本外，家庭自动化还经常为房主提供安全感)”可知，本段落介绍智能家居节能，后文提到了节省成本，推测本句启示后文，是在说明家庭自动化可以省钱。由此可知，B. It achieves this by saving hmewners time and mney.(它通过节省房主的时间和金钱来实现这一点)承上启下，符合语境，this指代上文intrduce efficiency t a hme，saving hmewners time and mney呼应下文reduce expenses。故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Families with children r elderly adults in the hme may be reassured by sme safeguards in smart hme security, like fire alarms that alert the apprpriate agencies in the event f a prblem. Lighting activatin runs n timers, which can be a life saver if an ven is left n when smene leaves the hme. (家里有小孩或老人的家庭可以通过智能家居安全的一些保障措施来获得安心，比如火灾报警器，当出现问题时，它会向有关机构发出警报。当有人离开家时，如果烤箱还开着，那么照明激活就可以通过计时器来实现)”可知，上文讲了智能家居可以解决有老人小孩的家庭的安全问题。由此可知F. Besides prtecting peple, it als ffers security fr expensive items inside a residence.(除了保护人们，它还为住宅内的贵重物品提供安全保护)又补充了智能家居对财产的保护，还是安全问题，符合语境。故选F项。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Hme autmatin is nt just fr safety, hwever. (然而，家庭自动化不仅仅是为了安全)”及后文“With a centralized cntrl unit, a persn des nt have t leave the cuch t turn dwn the blinds r even rder grceries, which can be autmated.(有了一个集中控制单元，一个人不必离开沙发就可以拉下百叶窗，甚至可以自动订购杂货)”可知，本句承接上文，继续说明家庭自动化的其他好处，结合后文的例子可知，家庭自动化提供了方便。由此可知D. It can als prvide cnvenience fr peple living in the hme.(它也可以为生活在家里的人提供方便)符合语境，关键词cnvenience呼应下文。故选D项。
【20题详解】
本空为段首句，根据下文“Such a hme becmes dependent n technlgy fr rutine tasks. If smething ges wrng with the central autmatin unit, it is nt just ne appliance at risk as malfunctins can disrupt systems that are vital t running a hme. As a result, fr all peple, a hme can becme a place f technical faults that repeatedly require repair. (这样的家庭变得依赖于技术来完成日常任务。如果中央自动化单元出现问题，就不仅仅是一台设备有风险，因为故障可能会破坏对家庭正常运行至关重要的系统。因此，对所有人来说，家都可能成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方)”可知，本段提到智能家居可能存在故障，让家成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方，即存在缺点。由此可知C. There are sme drawbacks with an autmated hme system.(自动化家庭系统有一些缺点)符合语境。故选C项。
