细节理解题。根据第三段“But as a child, he culdn’t build furniture n his wn. S, he cnveyed this passin int building with Leg bricks at the age f 8.(但作为一个孩子，他不会自己做家具。所以，他在8岁的时候就把这种激情用乐高积木表达出来)”以及第四段““At that time, I wuld think befre ging t bed abut what I wuld build tmrrw,” Jia recalled. “I brainstrmed a framewrk in my mind, and the next day I wuld start building it.”(“那个时候，我会在睡觉前想明天要做什么，”贾回忆说。“我在脑海中集思广益地想出了一个框架，第二天就开始构建它。”)”和第五段“This hbby significantly benefited Jia’s future furniture-making skills.(这个爱好对他日后的家具制作技能有很大的帮助)”可知，搭建乐高提高他的木工技术。故选C项。

【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Grwing up in a family with a carpenter father, Jia wuld cnstantly bserve his father ding wdwrk and smetimes assist him. This early expsure ignited (点燃) his passin and talent fr carpentry.(贾在一个木匠父亲的家庭长大，他经常观察父亲做木工，有时还会帮助他。这种早期的接触点燃了他对木工的热情和天赋)”以及倒数第二段“Recently, Jia’s cmmitment t this craft achieved a significant milestne.

A prtn (质子) is an infinitesimal (无穷小的) part f an atm.
Nw imagine if yu can (and f curse yu can’t) make smaller ne f thse prtns dwn t a billinth f its nrmal size int a space s small that it wuld make a prtn lk huge. Nw pack int that tiny, tiny space sme matter. Excellent. Yu are ready t start a standard Big Bang universe.
In fact, yu will need t gather up everything there is, every last mte (尘埃) f matter, between here and the edge f creatin and press it int a spt s infinitesimally cmpact (紧密的) that it has n dimensins at all. It is knwn as a singularity.
It is natural but wrng t visualize the singularity as a kind f packed spt hanging in a dark, bundless vid (虚空). There is n space, n darkness. The singularity has n “arund” arund it. We can’t even ask hw lng it has been there — whether it has just lately explded int being, like a gd idea, r whether it has been there frever, quietly awaiting the right mment. Time desn’t exist. There is n past fr it t emerge frm.
And s, frm nthing, ur universe begins with a big “bang”. In a single blinding pulse, a mment f glry “explsin” much t rapid and expansive fr any frm f wrds, the singularity assumes (显露出) heavenly dimensins, space beynd cnceptin. Within a secnd gravity is prduced and then the ther frces that gvern physics. In less than a minute the universe is a millin billin miles acrss and grwing fast. There is a lt f heat nw, ten billin degrees f it, enugh t begin the nuclear reactins that create the lighter elements — principally hydrgen, helium and a little lithium (锂). In three minutes, 98 percent f all the matter there is r will ever be has been prduced. We have a universe. It is a place f the mst wndrus and gratifying pssibility, and beautiful, t. And it was all dne in abut the time it takes t make a sandwich.
28. What is the characteristic f singularity?
A. Empty.B. Mysterius.
C. Fixed.D. Predictable.
29. Which f the fllwing happens r cmes int existence first?
A. Gravity.B. Expansin.
C. Nuclear reactins.D. Elements.
30. We can infer frm the last paragraph that the authr is amazed by _____.
A. the existence f the universe
B. the envirnment in which the universe is made
C. the speed at which the universe cmes int existence
D. the beauty f the universe
31. What chapter f a science bk is this text mst prbably taken frm?

C. The Size f the Universe.D. Hw t Build a Universe.
【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. D
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章通过描述宇宙大爆炸的过程，解释了宇宙起源的奥秘。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“It is natural but wrng t visualize the singularity as a kind f packed spt hanging in a dark, bundless vid (虚空). There is n space, n darkness. The singularity has n “arund” arund it. We can’t even ask hw lng it has been there-whether it has just lately explded int being, like a gd idea, r whether it has been there frever, quietly awaiting the right mment. Time desn’t exist. There is n past fr it t emerge frm.(把奇点想象成一个挂在黑暗、无边无际的虚空中的密集的点是很自然但错误的。那里没有空间，没有黑暗。奇点周围没有“周围”。我们甚至不能问它在那里多久了——它是最近才突然出现，像一个好主意，还是它一直在那里，静静地等待着合适的时刻。时间并不存在。它没有过去可以出现)”可知，奇点是一个什么都没有的点，包括时间，人们能想象，但是是错误的，所以它是神秘的。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“In a single blinding pulse, a mment f glry “explsin” much t rapid and expansive fr any frm f wrds, the singularity assumes (显露出) heavenly dimensins, space beynd cnceptin.(在一个令人眩目的脉冲中，一个荣耀的“爆炸”的时刻，它的速度和范围都太大，无法用任何语言来形容，奇点呈现出天堂般的维度，超出了想象的空间。)”可知，爆炸首先产生。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“In three minutes, 98 percent f all the matter there is r will ever be has been prduced. We have a universe. It is a place f the mst wndrus and gratifying pssibility, and beautiful, t. And it was all dne in abut the time it takes t make a sandwich.(在三分钟内，98%的现有或将会存在的物质都产生了。我们有一个宇宙。这是一个最奇妙和最令人满意的可能性，也是一个美丽的地方。这一切都是在做一个三明治的时间内完成的)”可推知，作者对宇宙形成的速度感到惊讶。故选C项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“And s, frm nthing, ur universe begins with a big “bang”.(因此，我们的宇宙从无到有，开始于一个大“爆炸”。)”以及综合全文可知，本文先描述了什么是奇点，然后描述奇点爆炸，宇宙形成，所以应是来自自科学书籍的如何构建宇宙这一章。故选D项。

The iPhne has becme a usability nightmare (噩梦). A new ne cmes with 38 preinstalled (提前装好的) apps, f which yu can delete 27. Once yu’ve dwnladed yur favrite apps, yu’re nw sitting at 46 r mre.
Like many cmpanies, Apple has decided that there’s n need t build an easy-t-use prduct when it can use artificial intelligence. If yu want t find smething in their garbage dump f apps and ptins, yu must use Sptlight, Apple’s AI-pwered search engine that can find almst everything there.
This “innvatin” f artificial intelligence is nt the creatin f smething new but simply cmpanies selling yu back basic usability after decades f messy design chices. And these tech firms are charging us mre t fix their mistakes and slapping an AI label as a slutin.
Alexa and Siri have becme replacements fr intentinal cmputing. They give cmmands int vice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can d” t “what Amazn r Apple allws us t d.” We have been trained t keep apps and files, while tech cmpanies have failed t prvide any easy way t rganize them. They have decided that disrganized chas is fine as lng as they can prvide an autmated search prduct t sift (筛查) thrugh the mess, smething mre tech, even if tech created the prblem in the first place.
Artificial intelligence-based user interfaces rb the user f chice and empwer tech giants t cntrl their decisin-making. When ne searches fr smething in Siri r Alexa, Apple and Amazn cntrl the results. Ggle already prvides vastly different search results based n yur lcatin, and has redesigned search itself multiple times t trick users int clicking links that benefit Ggle in sme way.
Depressingly, ur future is becming ne where we must chse between asking an artificial intelligence fr help, r fighting thrugh an ever-increasing amunt f prly designed menus in the hpe we might be able t help urselves. We, as cnsumers, shuld demand mre frm the cmpanies that have turned ur digital lives int trillin-dllar enterprises.
32. Why des the authr mentin Apple’s prblem?
A. As the main tpic.B. As the mdel.
C. As an example.D. As a sharp cntrast.
33. What can we knw abut Alexa and Siri?
A. They are bth Apple’s search prducts.
B. They help cnsumers make their wn chices.
C. They have bettered the user experience greatly.
D. They wrk t the benefits f tech giants behind.
34. What’s the authr’s attitude twards the technlgical giants’ AI-slutin?
A. Uncertain.B. Disapprving.
C. Unclear.D. Uncncerned.
35. The authr writes this article t ask readers t _____.
A. abandn using artificial intelligence
B. abandn using prducts frm tech giants
C. recgnize the nature f AI-based slutin
D. recgnize the nature f prly designed apps
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. C
【语篇解读】本文的是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能在用户界面设计中的应用所带来的问题，包括使用困难、选择受限以及科技公司对用户决策的控制等。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Like many cmpanies, Apple has decided that there’s n need t build an easy-t-use prduct when it can use artificial intelligence.(像许多公司一样，苹果公司已经决定，如果可以使用人工智能，就没有必要开发一款易于使用的产品)”可知，作者使用Apple作为众多公司中的一个代表，来说明即使是知名公司如Apple在使用人工智能时也忽视了易用性的问题，所以是作为一个例子。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Alexa and Siri have becme replacements fr intentinal cmputing. They give cmmands int vice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can d” t “what Amazn r Apple allws us t d.” (Alexa和Siri已经成为有意计算的替代品。他们很容易将命令输入语音界面，但牺牲了“我们能做什么”，而变成了“亚马逊或苹果允许我们做什么”)”以及倒数第二段“Artificial intelligence-based user interfaces rb the user f chice and empwer tech giants t cntrl their decisin-making. When ne searches fr smething in Siri r Alexa, Apple and Amazn cntrl the results. Ggle already prvides vastly different search results based n yur lcatin, and has redesigned search itself multiple times t trick users int clicking links that benefit Ggle in sme way.(基于人工智能的用户界面剥夺了用户的选择，使科技巨头能够控制他们的决策。当用户在Siri或Alexa中搜索某样东西时，苹果和亚马逊控制着搜索结果。谷歌已经根据你的位置提供了截然不同的搜索结果，并多次重新设计搜索本身，以欺骗用户点击在某种程度上有利于谷歌的链接)”可知，Alexa和Siri等智能助手虽然提供了便捷的语音交互方式，但限制了用户的选择，使得用户只能做Amazn或Apple允许的事情。这实际上是在为这些科技巨头控制用户决策、进而获取更多利益服务。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“This “innvatin” f artificial intelligence is nt the creatin f smething new but simply cmpanies selling yu back basic usability after decades f messy design chices.(这种人工智能的“创新”并不是创造新东西，而只是公司在几十年混乱的设计选择之后向你出售基本的可用性)”以及倒数第二段“Artificial intelligence-based user interfaces rb the user f chice and empwer tech giants t cntrl their decisin-making.(基于人工智能的用户界面剥夺了用户的选择，使科技巨头能够控制他们的决策。)”可知，作者认为科技巨头的人工智能解决方案不是创造新东西且剥夺了用户的选择，所以是不赞成的。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Depressingly, ur future is becming ne where we must chse between asking an artificial intelligence fr help, r fighting thrugh an ever-increasing amunt f prly designed menus in the hpe we might be able t help urselves. We, as cnsumers, shuld demand mre frm the cmpanies that have turned ur digital lives int trillin-dllar enterprises.(令人沮丧的是，我们的未来将成为一个我们必须在向人工智能寻求帮助或在越来越多的设计糟糕的菜单中挣扎之间做出选择的地方，希望我们能够帮助自己。作为消费者，我们应该向那些将我们的数字生活变成万亿级企业的公司提出更多要求)”可知，这里作者呼吁读者认识到当前基于AI的用户界面设计存在的问题，以及这些问题如何影响用户的选择和决策。所以是为了让读者认识到基于人工智能的解决方案的本质。故选C项。

【57题详解】

【58题详解】

【63题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：《洛神赋图》的故事源于历史记载和三国时期的王子和诗人曹植的诗歌。分析句子结构可知，rt作本句谓语，和主语The stry f Nymph f the Lu River之间是被动关系，用被动语态，描述的是事实，用一般现在时，主语为第三人称单数。故填is rted。
【64题详解】
考查名词。句意：据记载，曹植写了一首名为《洛神赋》的诗，描述了一位魅力非凡的女神。空前是形容词，所以空处应填名词作宾语，用attractive的名词形式是attractiveness，表示“吸引力”。故填attractiveness。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他的画展现了这首诗的灵魂，展现了女神独特的优雅和迷人的魅力。本句已有谓语动词exhibits，所以display用非谓语形式，和逻辑主语His painting之间是主动关系，用现在分词形式。故填displaying。

The check trembled in Jack’s hand. It culd fix everything, he thught-the unpaid rent, the empty fridge, and the endless fear. But his chest tightened. Memries f his father’s lectures eched: “Never depend n thers. Stand n yur wn.” Jack had prmised t prve himself in the city, yet here he was, drwning.
Mr. Thmpsn’s wrds warmed him, but dubt crept in. Was it a charity case? He needed answers-nt frm the mney, but frm the man wh sent it.
