One of the things I like most is that I can send and receive directly to and from my friends. It makes it so much to share the bill (账单) when we eat out together. But like all technology, cashless payment has some as well. What happens if your phone gets lost or stolen (被偷)? There are also times when your phone’s mobile internet connection (网络连接), the store’s internet connection, might not work. Not long ago, I went to a store to buy some food. But I found that the store’s cashless payments didn’t work and they could only cash. I didn’t have any cash me, so I had to give up and leave without any .

More recently, however, bosses are putting the duty of finding the most acceptable worker on the inhuman shoulders — AI systems. While some people believe that this super useful hiring method is the future, others fear that the systems have serious problems. Because AI systems use unfair information to learn how to choose people, the hiring process may actually be more unfair when AI is used. A recent example of this was Amazon’s AI hiring system, which automatically (自动地) paid no attention to women because most technical workers were men. Naturally, job searchers are trying anything they can to satisfy the AI’s selection criteria (标准). Now, in South Korea, where a number of the top companies use AI for hiring, many job searchers attend special continuation schools (补习学校) to learn how to pass their AI interview. Of course, many of the skills taught are nothing more than educated guesses (有根据的猜测). Without knowing exactly what to do to please it is very difficult. However, there are still some things you can try. For example, use industry specific terms in your interview answers because AI often searches information for specific (特定的) key words. Another tip is to keep your resume’s style simple. That way, the AI can search it more easily. 36．What does the underlined phrase “inhuman shoulders” in Paragraph 1refer to? A．Bosses. B．AI systems. C．Workmates. D．A team of people. 37．What does the writer think of Amazon’s AI-hiring system? A．It’s not fair to women. B．It knows about women. C．It prefers to choose women. D．It doesn’t like women. 38．What do job searchers do to satisfy the AI’s selection criteria? A．They try to learn how to use computers. B．They try to change the AI-hiring systems. C．They write letters to some AI companies. D．They learn how to pass their AI interview. 39．Which paragraph talks about the skills of pleasing AI system? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 40．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Making Up Your Mind B．Hired by a Machine Mind C．The AI’s Selection Criteria D．Amazon’s AI-hiring System 七、应用文写作（本节共10小题；每小题2分，共20分） 根据括号里的中文信息将文中的内容补充完整，每空不超过两个单词。 The telephone was a 41 (有帮助的) invention that could help people speak to each other soon. The smartphone took this technology further, which could help us hear people in each 42 (角落) of the world. However, a study shows that forty percent of us still like to 43 (联系) by text. I don’t mean we have taken up letter writing again. Although a handwritten letter has a 44 (私密的) touch, yet it’s too slow. But our smartphones allow us to communicate quickly and 45 (直接地). Another study in the UK found most teenagers would like to send a text rather than speak someone nearby. Sometimes sending a text means we can be clearer to express ourselves, especially with emojis (表情). Also, it’ll be much politer if you’re in a 46 (公开的) place such as on a train. Because of different 47 (背景), texts can be misunderstood if you miss out a speaker’s intonation. Professor Sophie Scott always mentions before the BBC, “We’ll miss what is 48 (准确地) expressed unless we always speak with feelings and intonations (语调).” Of course, the worst thing to do can’t be 49 (避免) while texting and talking. Who draws your 50 (注意，关注) when two people are communicating with you? It’s then that you have to decide who has the most interesting thing to say! 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 编写说明：本套【湖南专用】《同步单元AB卷》紧扣《英语 基础模块2》（高教版2023版）教材，以教材单元为基准精准覆盖核心考点，并紧密贴合湖南省真题题型。A卷为考点梳理卷，侧重考点分层突破；B卷为单元测试卷，强化综合能力检测，助力师生高效把握区域教学重点，提升应试能力与知识应用水平。 本卷是Unit 7 Invention and Innovation的单元测试卷，主要考查听力、词汇、词组、句式句型、阅读能力和写作能力。 Unit 7 Invention and Innovation B卷·单元测试卷 考试时间：60分钟 满分：100分 班级 姓名 学号 成绩 一、听力理解（满分10分） 听下面2段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。 1．What would the woman like to see?

I learned about art from him; I learned about looking at art from him. I think that’s what really got me started. Then, many years later, after I got out of the army, I went to study art history at the University of Chicago. W: Tell us more about your experiences of looking at art with your grandfather. M: Well, we looked at the famous paintings by the great artists like Rembrandt, Watteau, and Albrecht Dürer. Rubens’ paintings were my favorites, yes, I remember these things. This was when I was between ten and fifteen. When I was fourteen, I was so anxious to see more art that a friend of mine and I bicycled across the Alps to see Venice.

(然而，最近，老板们把寻找最合适人选的任务交给了非人类的肩膀——人工智能系统。)”可知，第一段中带下划线的短语“inhuman shoulders”指的是AI系统。故选B。 37．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A recent example of this was Amazon’s AI-hiring system, which automatically paid no attention to women because most technical workers were men. (最近的一个例子是亚马逊的人工智能招聘系统，它自动忽略了女性，因为大多数技术工人都是男性。)”可知，作者认为亚马逊的人工智能招聘系统对女性不公平。故选A。 38．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Naturally, job searchers are trying anything they can to satisfy the AI’s selection criteria. Now, in South Korea, where a number of the top companies use AI for hiring, many job searchers attend special continuation schools to learn how to pass their AI interview. (自然，求职者会想尽一切办法满足人工智能的选择标准。现在，在韩国，许多顶级公司都使用人工智能进行招聘，许多求职者会参加专门的补习学校，学习如何通过人工智能面试。)”可知，求职者为了满足人工智能的选择标准，他们学习如何通过人工智能面试。故选D。 39．主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Of course, many of the skills taught are nothing more than educated guesses. Without knowing exactly what to do to please it is very difficult. However, there are still some things you can try. For example, use industry-specific terms in your interview answers because AI often searches information for specific key words. Another tip is to keep your resume’s style simple. That way, the AI can search it more easily. (当然，所教的许多技能只不过是有根据的猜测。不知道具体该怎么做来取悦它是非常困难的。然而，仍有一些事情你可以尝试。例如，在你的面试答案中使用行业特定的术语，因为人工智能经常搜索特定关键词的信息。另一个建议是保持简历的风格简单。这样，人工智能可以更容易地搜索它。)”可知，第四段主要讨论了取悦人工智能系统的技巧。故选D。 40．主旨大意题。根据全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了人工智能系统在招聘中的应用及其带来的公平性问题和求职者的应对策略，因此，本文的最佳标题是“被机器大脑雇佣”。故选B 七、应用文写作（本节共10小题；每小题2分，共20分） 根据括号里的中文信息将文中的内容补充完整，每空不超过两个单词。 The telephone was a 41 (有帮助的) invention that could help people speak to each other soon. The smartphone took this technology further, which could help us hear people in each 42 (角落) of the world. However, a study shows that forty percent of us still like to 43 (联系) by text. I don’t mean we have taken up letter writing again. Although a handwritten letter has a 44 (私密的) touch, yet it’s too slow. But our smartphones allow us to communicate quickly and 45 (直接地). Another study in the UK found most teenagers would like to send a text rather than speak someone nearby. Sometimes sending a text means we can be clearer to express ourselves, especially with emojis (表情). Also, it’ll be much politer if you’re in a 46 (公开的) place such as on a train. Because of different 47 (背景), texts can be misunderstood if you miss out a speaker’s intonation. Professor Sophie Scott always mentions before the BBC, “We’ll miss what is 48 (准确地) expressed unless we always speak with feelings and intonations (语调).” Of course, the worst thing to do can’t be 49 (避免) while texting and talking. Who draws your 50 (注意，关注) when two people are communicating with you? It’s then that you have to decide who has the most interesting thing to say! 【答案】 41．helpful 42．corner 43．connect 44．private 45．directly 46．public 47．backgrounds 48．exactly 49．avoided 50．attention 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了电话和智能手机的不同之处。 41．句意：电话是一项有用的发明，它可以帮助人们很快地互相交谈。根据中文提示可知，此处考查形容词helpful“有帮助的”，作定语修饰“invention”。故填helpful。 42．句意：智能手机进一步发展了这项技术，它可以帮助我们听到世界每个角落的人的声音。根据中文提示可知，此处考查名词corner“角落”，前有“each”修饰，应用单数形式。故填corner。 43．句意：然而，一项研究表明，40%的人仍然喜欢通过短信联系。根据中文提示可知，此处考查动词connect“联系”，like to do sth.表示“喜欢做某事”，此处用动词原形。故填connect。 44．句意：虽然手写的信有私人的感觉，但是太慢了。根据中文提示可知，此处考查形容词private“私密的”，作定语修饰名词“touch”。故填private。 45．句意：但是我们的智能手机可以让我们快速直接地交流。根据中文提示可知，此处考查副词directly“直接地”，作状语，修饰动词“communicate”。故填directly。 46．句意：此外，如果你在公共场所，比如火车上，这样会礼貌得多。根据中文提示可知，此处考查形容词public“公开的”，作定语，修饰“place”。故填public。 47．句意：由于背景不同，如果你忽略了说话人的语调，文本就会被误解。根据中文提示可知，此处考查名词background“背景”，前有“different”修饰，应用名词复数形式。故填backgrounds。 48．句意：如果我们不带感情和语调说话，就会错过真正想表达的东西。根据中文提示可知，此处考查副词exactly“准确地”，作状语，修饰动词“expressed”。故填exactly。 49．句意：当然，发短信和聊天时最糟糕的事情是无法避免的。根据中文提示可知，此处考查动词avoid“避免”，主语“the worst thing”与“avoid”是被动关系，应用被动语态，avoid的过去分词是avoided。故填avoided。 50．句意：当两个人和你交流时，谁会吸引你的注意力？根据中文提示可知，此处考查不可数名词attention“注意力”。故填attention。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
