【解析】

短文大意：互聯(lián)網(wǎng)正在塑造我們的生活，我們已經(jīng)有了網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物服務(wù)和手機(jī)支付。然而這只是一個(gè)開(kāi)始。世界領(lǐng)先的科技公司正計(jì)劃建立更智能的在線社區(qū)。短文介紹了人工智能給我們的生活帶來(lái)的便利和好處。

【1】句意：他們?cè)谑澜缁ヂ?lián)網(wǎng)會(huì)議上討論了這個(gè)問(wèn)題。

根據(jù)下文中的句子“It was held in Wuzhen, Zhejiang last year. The development of artificial intelligence（AI，人工智能）was a hot topic at the conference（會(huì)議）.”它去年在浙江烏鎮(zhèn)舉行。人工智能的發(fā)展是會(huì)議上的一個(gè)熱門(mén)話題。因此本句提到世界互聯(lián)網(wǎng)會(huì)議，答案為B。

【2】句意：如果你微笑，它會(huì)給你的商品一個(gè)特別的折扣。

根據(jù)下文中的句子“The bigger your smile is, the more discounts (折扣) you will get.”你的笑容越大，折扣就越多。因此本句說(shuō)微笑會(huì)使你購(gòu)買(mǎi)的商品得到優(yōu)惠，故答案為D。

【3】句意：搜狗把它的唇讀系統(tǒng)帶到了會(huì)議上。

根據(jù)后面的句子It recognizes your mouth's movements and turns them into voices or text messages. This could be very useful when you are trying to talk to someone on your phone in a noisy place. 它能識(shí)別你的嘴的運(yùn)動(dòng)，并把它們變成聲音或短信。當(dāng)你試圖在嘈雜的地方用手機(jī)和某人交談時(shí)，這可能非常有用。因此本句提到“唇讀系統(tǒng)”，后面是解釋它的功能。故答案為C。

【4】句意：另一種人工智能專注于理解人類情感。

結(jié)合下面的句子“Microsoft's chatbot XiaoIce can not only provide useful information, but also chat with people like a real friend.”微軟的聊天機(jī)器人“XiaoIce”不僅能提供有用的信息，還能像真正的朋友一樣與人聊天。說(shuō)明這類智能機(jī)器人能理解人類的情感，與人溝通。故此句說(shuō)“另一種人工智能專注于理解人類情感”。答案為E。

【5】句意：她知道什么時(shí)候安慰你或講笑話。

結(jié)合上下文中的句子“After following the account, users can start talking with her. She keeps improving herself by talking with users.”可知，聊天機(jī)器人“XiaoIce”也有微信賬號(hào)，能與用戶聊天，知道何時(shí)安慰用戶或講笑話，通過(guò)與用戶交談不斷提高自己。故答案為A。

五選五是把句子還原到語(yǔ)篇中，考查的是學(xué)生的文本語(yǔ)篇分析能力，從而使上下文在語(yǔ)義，語(yǔ)法，結(jié)構(gòu)上完整。技巧及注意事項(xiàng)如下：1.判斷挖空所處的位置：一般來(lái)講位于句首通常是概括文章的總結(jié)性話語(yǔ)；文章中部通常是轉(zhuǎn)折或者并列關(guān)系；文章末尾通常是總結(jié)段落或全文。2.根據(jù)連接詞判斷語(yǔ)境：連接詞諸如but意味著上下文的語(yǔ)義關(guān)系出現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)折，遇到此類情況就要弄得上下文說(shuō)的是什么。而and等并列詞語(yǔ)一般是描述前后兩個(gè)或多個(gè)相似的事情。3.根據(jù)作者語(yǔ)氣口吻推斷：該類文章一般情況下主旨明確，有作者自己的態(tài)度傾向，所以做題時(shí)要看出作者持哪一方態(tài)度，不能選擇有悖于作者思想的句子。
