Question

【題目】閱讀短文，從所給的A、B、C三個選項中選出最佳選項。

Artificial intelligence( 人工智能) is the ability of a computer or a machine. The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers "smart". John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with the name "artificial intelligence " over 60 years ago. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as people do.

An unusual goal of AI research is to create special computer programs. They can learn, solve problems and think logically( 合乎邏輯地). At present, AI can successfully understand human speech, recognize( 識別) human faces, operate self-driving cars and compete in some game systems like playing chess. However, some people consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. A famous British scientist also was not for this kind of technology.

Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. We need not only bright students but average(普通的) students. As for average students, if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.

Scientists hope to create creative and emotional(有情感的) AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field.

本文主要談?wù)撊斯ぶ悄堋?/span>

【1】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第1段第2句“The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn.”可知“有人工智能的機器可以思考和學(xué)習(xí)。”故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第4段第1句“Scientists hope to create creative and emotional(有情感的) AI.” 根據(jù)這篇文章，人工智能現(xiàn)在還不能理解人類的感情；故選C。

【3】詞意猜測題。此句“However, some people consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly.”句意是：然而，有些人認(rèn)為如果人工智能發(fā)展得太快，它對人類是一種危險。根據(jù)句意可知it指代的是人工智能；故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第3段第1句“If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. ”和最后1句“Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.”可知如果學(xué)生想成為成功的人工智能設(shè)計師，他們應(yīng)該學(xué)好數(shù)學(xué)和計算機科學(xué)；故選C。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第4段第1句“Scientists hope to create creative and emotional(有情感的) AI.”也是本段的主題句，可知第四段主要講述了科學(xué)家們對人工智能的愿望。故選A。

詞義猜測題是閱讀理解中常見的一種題型，所猜測詞匯可以是生詞，也可以是熟詞新義，還可以是人稱代詞的指代內(nèi)容。詞義猜測題主要考查考生根據(jù)上下文推測詞義和語義的能力，突出考查對語境的分析和把握能力。常見的猜詞法有：(1)利用上下文語境。猜測任何詞義都離不開上下文，所以要借助上下文對需要猜測的詞或短語進行合乎邏輯的推測。 (2)利用定義或解釋性的線索。閱讀文章中的有些生詞往往在其后會有對該詞進行解釋說明的短語或句子，利用它們猜詞義較容易 (3)利用文章的邏輯關(guān)系答題。如并列、對比、因果、轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系等。這些邏輯關(guān)系往往通過一些相應(yīng)的詞或短語表達出來，如but, or, however, so, because等。(4)利用構(gòu)詞法知識答題。熟記一些前綴、后綴所表達的意思，不僅可以擴大詞匯量，而且?guī)椭�我們猜測詞義。第3小題的詞義猜測題就是利用第1種解題方法。
