AI的广泛应用
Passage 1
Animals are people’s good friends. Many people hope to talk with their pets in everyday life. This may sound too good to be true, but scientists are now using AI to help make this dream come true.
Karen Bakker, a teacher at the University of British Columbia in Canada, believes that AI will bring humans (人类) closer to the world of animals and plants in the future. “AI helps humans talk with bats and bees,” Bakker said. How does it work?
When bats talk with each other, scientists first record their sounds and input (输入) them into a computer. Then, they use AI to find out what the bats say and try to speak back to them. Humans cannot hear these sounds with their own ears, but AI makes it possible for us to understand and “speak” back to the bats by training a computer to “speak” like a bat.
Scientists also found an interesting fact: When baby bats start to learn to “speak”, mother bats often lower (降低) their voices. However, human mothers often raise (提高) their voices during this time.
As for bees, scientists use a computer to both listen to and watch them in order to study their language. Scientists now know how bees send messages like “stop”. They even made a robot bee that can talk with other bees.
1.What does the underlined word “This” refer to?
A.Keeping pets. B.Talking with pets.
C.Using AI to help animals. D.Making friends with animals.
2.What’s the third paragraph mainly about?
A.How bats talk to each other.
B.Why people hope to talk with bats.
C.How people use AI to talk with bats.
D.Why humans can’t hear the bats’ sounds with their own ears.
3.What do we know about mother bats?
A.They never talk with their babies.
B.They are good at looking after babies.
C.They act the same way as human mothers do.
D.They often talk to their babies in a lower voice.
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
5.Why does the writer write the passage?
A.To advise us to use AI to talk with bees and bats.
B.To tell us an interesting talk between bees and bats.
C.To show us the scientists’ care for the bees and bats.
D.To show us how scientists use AI to talk with bees and bats.
Passage 2
Picture this: Students pass their schoolwork from their group leader to the class representative (课代表), and finally to the teacher. It might not sound too difficult, 1 it takes a lot of time.
To deal with this problem, Zhang Xirui from Shenzhen Gezhi Academy in Guangdong invented 2 useful tool. It is a smart homework collection robot.
The robot uses the radio frequency identification (RFID,射频识别) technology—a reader and a special tag (标签) that can share information without touching each other. This way, it can 3 find and know what it is looking for. Each student’s notebook has a special RFID tag 4 their name and the subject on it. When a notebook 5 on the robot, the machine “sees” it, reads its tag and takes it out of the list. “Teachers can check 6 hasn’t turned in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through WiFi,” the 13-year-old said.
Now Zhang 7 to improve the robot. He hopes the robot can use new technology 8 lots of RFID tags from far away. Zhang believes that this is the key to how AI can make life much 9 for us.

AI的影响与挑战
Passage 1
Probably the biggest change to hit the working world in recent years has been generative AI (生成型人工智能). A report showed that 85% of workers could see at least 10% of their tasks affected by AI in some way. And how can students make sure their skills stay valuable in a world that feels like it’s being taken over by computers? Here are the experts’ suggestions.
Work on your people skills. AI can summarize (总结) an article and program a computer, but it can’t win over a customer or stop a fight. So, try to get experience in jobs where you work with people — including difficult people! You could do this by working as a waiter or volunteering at a nursing home.
Learn lots of things, or become an expert. If you have just one skill, you could be in trouble if AI gets really good at it. So students should consider taking extra (额外的) courses besides their main study courses. If you do focus on (关注) one area, just ensure you know more about it than AI does!
Show you can do big, creative things AI can’t do. While AI can do long, boring tasks like comparing lots of information, it doesn’t push companies to develop new ideas or improve. And even if AI does the boring work, humans will still be needed to organize the projects in which AI is used.
Develop adaptability. We can’t know for certain what the world of work will look like in the future — so the best skill to develop may be adaptability. You can make yourself better at this by looking for new experiences, like studying abroad or even taking courses, which force you to change to get used to new situations!
The future of work with AI is challenging. But students can change and succeed. With AI’s help, you can learn more efficiently and solve problems more easily Face the difficulties and work hard, and you’ll make the journey into the AI-driven future be a step towards a better life.
1.What can AI do according to the text?
① summarize an article ② program a computer
③ win over a customer ④ stop a fight
A.①② B.①③ C.②④ D.③④
2.Why should students consider taking extra courses?
A.To develop people skills. B.To drop their main courses.
C.To focus on one area. D.To avoid being replaced by AI.
3.Which of the following shows “adaptability” in Paragraph 5?
A.Tom invented a human-like robot. B.Sam organized a successful party.
C.Tina made few friends in the club. D.Mary fit in well at her new school.
4.How does the writer feel about the future work with AI?
A.Doubtful. B.Satisfied. C.Hopeful. D.Worried.
5.What is the text mainly about?
A.The importance of AI in students’ life. B.How students can protect their futures from AI.
C.The challenges AI brings to students. D.What changes students will face in the future.
Passage 2
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
China is testing self-driving taxis in the busy streets of Wuhan. Some people worry that self-driving taxis may do harm 1 our society because they may be unsafe and leave some drivers jobless. 2 report in March 2023 said that AI could do a quarter of all the work that humans could do. Now, in Europe and America, with the 3 (develop) of AI, 300 million people may lose 4 (they) jobs.
5 it’s not all bad news. Scientists say that there 6 (be) still some jobs that AI can’t do now. The first jobs are 7 (real) creative: people should come up with new ideas from time to time. The second jobs need people 8 (have) a very deep understanding of interpersonal (人际的) relationships. The third jobs require people’s 9 (nature) talents and wonderful skills in handwork (手艺), such as artists.
In short, finding a job that fits the changes of society is a good way to avoid 10 (lose) jobs.
At the year’s Boao Forum for Asia (博鳌亚洲论坛), experts expressed excitement about the potential (潜力)of AI. Zhang Keke, director of the Macau Institute of Space Technology and Application, said that Mars could become a planet which is suitable for humans to live on with the help of AI.
“Mars used to have water and an environment just like the earth. I believe in the future humans could improve the environment on Mars through AI technology, making it have air and water again, so that humans can live there,” Zhang said. “It may not be science fiction. If this happens, it will solve many troubles faced by humans, such as the shortage of land. That is why humans have been exploring the moon and other planets for many years.”
All kinds of ideas have been come up with by many scientists to recreate the magnetic field (磁场) of Mars. When there is a magnetic field, it acts like an umbrella and stops solar wind, allowing the environment to become suitable for the development of water, air and human life.
Actually, China is already on this way. Tianwen-1 probe landed on Mars as early as 2021. This was the first time that China has carried out an exploration of the magnetic field on Mars.
“China’s exploring of Mars will be further sped up with the development of AI,” Zhang said. “In 2028, China will launch a second spacecraft called Tianwen-3, which will take samples (样本) from Mars and bring them back to the earth. So I feel that with powerful tools like AI and machine learning methods, humans will greatly increase the speed of exploration of resources on Mars, and especially on the moon, in the future.”
1.What were the experts excited about at the year’s Boao Forum for Asia?
A.The potential of AI. B.The finding of air and water on Mars.
C.The launch of Tianwen-3. D.The improvement of the environment.
2.In Zhang’s opinion, what is the main purpose of using AI in Mars exploration?
A.To find life on Mars.
B.To bring back water from Mars.
C.To achieve the goal of landing on Mars.
D.To create an earth-like living environment.
3.Why do we need to recreate the magnetic field of Mars?
A.It can create more land.
B.It can collect more sunlight.
C.It can reduce the bad weather.
D.It can help humans live on Mars.
4.What’s Zhang’s attitude towards AI in space exploration?
A.Shocked. B.Worried. C.Confident. D.Doubtful.
5.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.AI shows science fiction. B.AI will help humans explore Mars.
C.Mars is suitable for humans. D.Humans will recreate the magnetic field.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing the world faster than ever. Recently, many 1 things have happened in AI technology.
One of the most interesting developments is in AI’s 2 to understand and generate (生成) human language. AI programs like ChatGPT can now write articles, answer questions, and even 3 with homework! These programs can understand language more naturally, making it 4 for people to interact (互动) with computers.
Another area where AI is making big progress is in health care. AI systems can help 5 find diseases earlier by looking at medical images (图像), such as X-rays and MRIs. This helps doctors make better 6 and treat patients more effectively (有效地). AI is also used to 7 new medicines faster.
In addition, AI is being used in self-driving cars. These cars use AI to understand the road, recognize obstacles (障碍), and 8 drive without a human driver.
However, there are 9 , too. Many people worry about AI taking jobs or being used in ways that are harmful. It’s important for scientists and governments to 10 AI is developed responsibly and safely.

AI的广泛应用
Passage 1
Animals are people’s good friends. Many people hope to talk with their pets in everyday life. This may sound too good to be true, but scientists are now using AI to help make this dream come true.
Karen Bakker, a teacher at the University of British Columbia in Canada, believes that AI will bring humans (人类) closer to the world of animals and plants in the future. “AI helps humans talk with bats and bees,” Bakker said. How does it work?
When bats talk with each other, scientists first record their sounds and input (输入) them into a computer. Then, they use AI to find out what the bats say and try to speak back to them. Humans cannot hear these sounds with their own ears, but AI makes it possible for us to understand and “speak” back to the bats by training a computer to “speak” like a bat.
Scientists also found an interesting fact: When baby bats start to learn to “speak”, mother bats often lower (降低) their voices. However, human mothers often raise (提高) their voices during this time.
As for bees, scientists use a computer to both listen to and watch them in order to study their language. Scientists now know how bees send messages like “stop”. They even made a robot bee that can talk with other bees.
1.What does the underlined word “This” refer to?
A.Keeping pets. B.Talking with pets.
C.Using AI to help animals. D.Making friends with animals.
2.What’s the third paragraph mainly about?
A.How bats talk to each other.
B.Why people hope to talk with bats.
C.How people use AI to talk with bats.
D.Why humans can’t hear the bats’ sounds with their own ears.
3.What do we know about mother bats?
A.They never talk with their babies.
B.They are good at looking after babies.
C.They act the same way as human mothers do.
D.They often talk to their babies in a lower voice.
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.

AI的影响与挑战
Passage 1
Probably the biggest change to hit the working world in recent years has been generative AI (生成型人工智能). A report showed that 85% of workers could see at least 10% of their tasks affected by AI in some way. And how can students make sure their skills stay valuable in a world that feels like it’s being taken over by computers? Here are the experts’ suggestions.
Work on your people skills. AI can summarize (总结) an article and program a computer, but it can’t win over a customer or stop a fight. So, try to get experience in jobs where you work with people — including difficult people! You could do this by working as a waiter or volunteering at a nursing home.
Learn lots of things, or become an expert. If you have just one skill, you could be in trouble if AI gets really good at it. So students should consider taking extra (额外的) courses besides their main study courses. If you do focus on (关注) one area, just ensure you know more about it than AI does!
Show you can do big, creative things AI can’t do. While AI can do long, boring tasks like comparing lots of information, it doesn’t push companies to develop new ideas or improve. And even if AI does the boring work, humans will still be needed to organize the projects in which AI is used.
Develop adaptability. We can’t know for certain what the world of work will look like in the future — so the best skill to develop may be adaptability. You can make yourself better at this by looking for new experiences, like studying abroad or even taking courses, which force you to change to get used to new situations!
The future of work with AI is challenging. But students can change and succeed. With AI’s help, you can learn more efficiently and solve problems more easily Face the difficulties and work hard, and you’ll make the journey into the AI-driven future be a step towards a better life.
1.What can AI do according to the text?
① summarize an article ② program a computer
③ win over a customer ④ stop a fight
A.①② B.①③ C.②④ D.③④
2.Why should students consider taking extra courses?
A.To develop people skills. B.To drop their main courses.
C.To focus on one area. D.To avoid being replaced by AI.
3.Which of the following shows “adaptability” in Paragraph 5?
A.Tom invented a human-like robot. B.Sam organized a successful party.
C.Tina made few friends in the club. D.Mary fit in well at her new school.
4.How does the writer feel about the future work with AI?
A.Doubtful. B.Satisfied. C.Hopeful. D.Worried.
5.What is the text mainly about?
A.The importance of AI in students’ life. B.How students can protect their futures from AI.
C.The challenges AI brings to students. D.What changes students will face in the future.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.D 4.C 5.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了生成型人工智能 (AI) 对工作世界的巨大影响,并给出了专家对学生如何确保自己技能在未来保持优势的建议。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“AI can summarize an article and program a computer, but it can’t win over a customer or stop a fight.”可知,AI能够完成的任务是总结文章和编写程序。故选A。
