A. anyB. littleC. smeD. few
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：我煮了一壶咖啡。你想要一些吗？
考查不定代词。any任何，一般用于否定句或疑问句；little几乎没有；sme一些，常用于肯定句或以情态动词开头的疑问句，表示希望得到对方的肯定回答；few几乎没有；根据“I’ve made a pt f cffee. Wuld yu like”可知，此处是问是否想要一些，句子是情态动词开头的疑问句，表示希望得到对方的肯定回答，应用sme，故选C。
17. My parents ften ask me ________ t much time ________ cmputer games.
A. dn’t spend; playingB. nt t spend; t play
C. t nt spend; t playD. nt t spend; playing
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：我父母经常叫我不要花太多时间玩电脑游戏。
考查非谓语动词。ask sb n t d sth“告诉某人不要做某事”，故第一空填nt t spend。spend+时间+ding sth“花费时间做某事”，动名词作宾语，故选D。
18. Many animals are in danger f ________, ________the plar bear.
A. dying f; includingB. dying ut; including
C. dying ut; includedD. dying f; include
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：许多动物都处于灭绝的危险之中，包括北极熊。
考查动词短语及现在分词的用法。dying f死于……；dying ut灭绝。第一空后没有宾语，结合“in danger f”可知应用“dying ut”，表示面临灭绝的危险，排除选项A和D。“Many animals”与“include”是逻辑上的主动关系，因此第二空应用现在分词“including”，作补足语。故选B。
19. Allen spent ________ time but did ________ wrk than Tny.
A. little; muchB. less; mstC. little; mreD. less; mre
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：Allen比Tny用了更少的时间，但是做了更多的工作。
考查形容词的比较级。根据“than”可知这两个空都需用比较级，根据“but”可知前后含义相反，因此D选项正确，“less”是“little”的比较级，修饰“time”，表示更少的时间；“mre”是“much”的比较级，修饰“wrk”，表示更多的工作。故选D。
20. They stpped ________, but heard ________.
A. t listen; nthingB. listening; anything
C. t listen; everythingD. listening; smething
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：他们停下来去听，但是他们什么也没有听到。
考查动词的用法和代词词义辨析。smething某些东西；anything（用于否定句）任何事物，什么事情；everything一切东西；nthing没有什么，没有一件东西；stp t d sth.意为“停下来去做某事”；hear“听到”，强调的是结果；listen“听”是强调听的动作。按常理只有停下来去听才能听到声音，所以第一空选t listen。后半句出现转折连词“but但是”，所以可以推测，他们什么也没有听到，故第二空选nthing。故选A。
21. This is ________ bk that I have ever read.
A. interestingB. mre interestingC. much interestingD. the mst interesting
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：这是我曾读过的最有趣的书。
考查形容词最高级。根据“that I have ever read”可知要用形容词最高级。故选D。
22. Accrding t the city plan, a ________ bridge will be built here next year.
A. 1000-metres-lngB. 1000 metres lng
C. 1000-metre-lngD. 1000 metre lng
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：根据城市规划，明年将在这里建造一座1000米长的桥。
考查形容词作定语。此空修饰名词bridge，应填由连字符连接起来的单数名词作定语，故选C。
23. Mike always wrks very hard, s he can earn twice ________ mine.
A. as much mney asB. as many mney as
C. much as mneyD. many as mney as
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：Mike工作总是非常努力，所以他挣的钱是我的两倍。
考查形容词原级的用法。“mney”是不可数名词，因此用“much”修饰，排除选项B和D；表示“和……一样多”应用“as much… as”。故选A。
24. He had prmised t g with me. ________, he changed his mind later.
A. ButB. HweverC. TherefreD. S
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：他本来已经答应和我走了。但是，后来他又改变了主意。
考查连词辨析。But但是；Hwever但是，需用逗号和后面的内容隔开；Therefre因此；S所以。分析前后句的关系可知为转折关系，因此排除选项C和D；此空后有逗号和后面的内容隔开，因此用“Hwever”。故选B。
四、语法选择（每小题1分，共10分）
阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在各小题所给的四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案，并将答题卷上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tls have becme extremely pwerful, surprising even their creatrs. Nw, sme peple say there shuld be a pause in AI wrk t make sure it desn’t becme dangerus, nt everyne agrees.
Mst peple have prbably read a bk r seen a mvie r shw abut an AI r rbt that has becme s smart that it can take ver the wrld. The AI in stries like these is knwn as an AGI r Artificial General Intelligence. A true AGI wuld be intelligent in many different areas and wuld be able t learn n its wn.
Nw, there are n AGIs. Mst experts believe it will be many years befre an AGI culd pssibly be created. Mst current Al tls are gd at just ne task, like answering questins, r identifying bjects in phts. But scientists have wrked t imprve AI mdels, mainly by training the mdels n larger and larger cllectins f infrmatin. Thse effrts are paving ff. Extremely large mdels have surprised even their creatrs with what they can d.
The AI tls that’s gt the mst attentin recently is ChatGPT, created by the cmpany Open AI. ChatGPT is a Large Language Mdel (LLM). ChatGPT allws users t “chat” with a pwerful LLM. When asked a questin, ChatGPT answers quickly in perfect sentences. It makes up stries and games, writes essays, prgrams cmputers, and much mre. ChatGPT appears t be extremely intelligent. But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing-based n its training infrmatin-which wrd is mst likely t cme next, ver and ver again.
Last mnth, OpenAI annunced a mre pwerful mdel, called GPT-4. GPT-4 can create and explain jkes, and pass tests that are difficult fr humans. GPT-4 was als trained n images, and can use them in pwerful ways. Fr example, it can create a wrking website frm a descriptin and a rugh drawing f the site.
The rapid prgress f recent AI mdels wrries sme peple. Last week, many cmputer experts released a letter calling fr a six-mnth pause fr any wrk n AI tls strnger than GPT4.
