Ⅱ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，满分20分) A Reshaping the world for a fossil fuel-free future means working quickly.Climate scientists say carbon emissions must reach the highest point by 2025 to minimize environmental damage.And by designing computational materials together with makers who can build and test them quickly，scientists can rapidly develop technologies like more powerful solar cells and car batteries. Michael is the name of a supercomputer devoted to just one task—discovering the ultimate battery system.Researchers at University College London will use Michael to digitally build and test prototypes(原型) in every new material and type of cell possible to improve battery life，performance and price. Finding a resilient(弹性的) design for solid-state batteries would be a huge breakthrough for electric vehicles and energy storage.Lighter，longer-lasting and cheaper solid-state technology could vastly improve vehicle range and charging time.And the energy from solar and wind power could be more efficiently stored until ready for use. Scientists working in the US and the UK led the way in the 1970s in developing the lithium-ion(锂离子) battery used in today’s electric cars，laptops and cameras.But commercial units were only developed once a Japanese electronics giant pushed the technology forward for mass production.Partnerships between companies and universities could ultimately crack solid-state battery design.Oxford University and some companies are looking to win the international race to create a durable product.But they are only one among many. Replacing liquid used in lithium-ion batteries with a solid conductor may take large digital processing.Electric vehicle makers are working with a computer giant to find successful designs that may include cheap and plentiful materials found in seawater.An electric vehicle maker is partnering with NASA to open a solid-state battery plant that uses no rare or expensive metals.The plan is to create a large database of materials that can be mixed and matched for the best combinations. But computational materials may be needed in virtually every industry.And by rapidly classifying millions of substances on their ability to conduct electricity，their toughness，or the way they reflect light，AI and supercomputers can speed up the process of creating materials for just about anything. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了利用超级计算机和人工智能设计新能源固态电池的美好前景。 1．What message does paragraph 1 convey? A．It’s too fast to design computational materials. B．It’s too late to reshape the fossil fuel-free world. C．Developing green energy can reduce carbon emissions. D．Developing technology can speed up carbon emissions. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Climate scientists say carbon emissions must reach the highest point...scientists can rapidly develop technologies like more powerful solar cells and car batteries.”可知科学家们迅速开发出更强大的太阳能电池和汽车电池是为了减少碳排放；因此可推知，发展绿色能源可以减少碳排放。故选C。 2．What are solid-state batteries expected to be like? A．Heavy and solid. B．Light but breakable. C．Less-costly and workable. D．Expensive but efficient. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Lighter，longer-lasting and cheaper solid-state technology could vastly improve vehicle range and charging time.”可知，固态电池被期待成本更低并且实用有效。故选C。 3．Why does the author mention Oxford University in paragraph 4? A．To show the weakness of mass production. B．To show the good trend of the cooperation. C．To show the difficulty of the battery design. D．To show the development of British technology. 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段中“Partnerships between companies and universities could ultimately crack solid-state battery design...But they are only one among many.”可知，作者提及牛津大学是为了表明大学和公司合作破解固态电池设计难题成了一种良好的趋势。故选B。 4．What can be the best title for the text? A．Michael Is Devoted to Storing Solar Energy B．Companies and NASA Will Push Technology Forward C．Electric Vehicle Makers Are Struggling to Solve Air Pollution D．Supercomputers and AI Can Create Future Low-carbon Industries 答案　D 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文尤其根据最后一段内容可知，本文主要说明人工智能和超级计算机可以加速推动低碳产业的发展，所以本文的最佳标题为D项“人工智能和超级计算机可以创造未来的低碳产业”。故选D。 B As Geoffrey Hinton，widely seen as the father of artificial intelligence，warns about growing dangers from how it is developing，businesses are scrambling to see how they can use the technology to their advantage. Recently，the hot topic is how to employ ChatGPT style technology across their businesses as quickly as possible.A boss looked at his computer，entered the transcript of a customer complaint call，and asked ChatGPT to respond to it based on set of rules.In about a minute it came up with a very credible answer，which was 85% accurate but only cost 1% of the cost of employing staff.The good news for all is the pure enhancement to productivity. Technology has improved the quality of life.A lot of innovation has made our entertainment time more enjoyable.But the real shock has been that these technologies are usable in a commercial context，not just for “low-cognitive，repetitive” tasks，i.e.robotic-tasks likely to be automated. The surprise has been how employable the technology is to highly creative，high-value work.Specifically，creating an image，or music，or coding a programme can be achieved in seconds rather than weeks of briefing and refining.So the good news is that rapid employment of this technology could solve the longstanding productivity crisis.The bad news is that it could occur so rapidly as to overtake workers’ ability to adapt in time，creating social crisis.Could we face in call centers and creative studios in the 2020s，the equivalent of what happened in the coal mines in the 1980s? Some individuals have started to suggest that states should provide a basic income due to the possibility of AI leading to job loss.The response of tech enthusiasts is that “You won’t be replaced by an AI，but you might be replaced by someone who knows how to use AI”．But they used to say that’s why everybody should learn how to code.That might not be such wise career advice any more. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了被广泛视为人工智能之父的杰弗里·辛顿Geoffrey Hinton警告称，人工智能的发展方式带来的危险越来越大，而企业正在争先恐后地利用这项技术为自己服务。 5．What do we learn about ChatGPT? A．It improves customers’ satisfaction. B．It enhances productivity and reduces cost. C．It perfects customers’ ability to summarize. D．It revolutionizes the business with accuracy. 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中“A boss looked at his computer...The good news for all is the pure enhancement to productivity.”可知，ChatGPT提高了效率，降低了成本。故选B项。 6．How has technology influenced individuals? A．By enriching leisure time. B．By increasing dependence. C．By simplifying people’s work. D．By reshaping entertainment forms. 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Technology has improved the quality of life.A lot of innovation has made our entertainment time more enjoyable.”可知，科技是通过丰富闲暇时间来影响个人的。故选A项。 7．What does the underlined word “equivalent” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Alternative. B．Opposite. C．Similarity. D．Reference. 答案　C 解析　词义猜测题。根据画线词前一句可知，人工智能发展过快，会比人类工作者更适应时代，进而造成社会危机，可推知画线词所在句应该讲述不好的事情，意为“我们会在呼叫中心和创意工作室面临类似于20世纪80年代煤矿发生的事情吗？”故可猜测，画线词与C项意思一致。故选C项。 8．What is the author’s attitude towards the application of AI? A．Intolerant. B．Favorable. C．Indifferent. D．Objective. 答案　D 解析　观点态度题。根据最后一段“Some individuals have started to suggest that...The response of tech enthusiasts is that...But they used to say that’s why everybody should learn how to code.That might not be such wise career advice any more.”可推知，对人工智能的应用，作者并未提出明确或褒或贬的个人观点，可得出作者对人工智能持客观的态度。故选D项。 Ⅲ.完形填空(每小题1分，满分15分) 17-year-old Aarrav Anil，interested in robotics，has represented his country at more than 20 robotics competitions.Now，he has 1 a smart spoon that can help people with Parkinson’s disease preserve their 2 in dining.
