Many people, especially workers, fear that their jobs might be 1 by machines. Because studies show that automation (自动化) could reduce a large number of 2 like factory workers and customer service. However, experts argue that while AI may 3 some jobs, it will also create new ones that we can’t even imagine today. Just as the internet gave birth to jobs like social media manager and app developer, AI will bring 4 jobs in the future. The key is to adapt (适应) and learn new skills. The education system is also 5 this change. Schools are starting to teach computer science and data analysis to prepare students for an AI-driven world. But technical 6 alone are not enough. Creativity and emotional intelligence are becoming increasingly 7 , as these are areas where humans do better than machines. For people already in the workforce, lifelong learning is no longer a choice but a 8 . Online courses and training programs offer chances to learn new skills. Governments and companies also play a role in providing support for workers to move into new 9 . AI is a tool, not a replacement for humans. By accepting change and improving our skills, 10 we can turn AI anxiety into AI opportunity (机遇). 1．A．improved B．replaced C．helped D．challenged 2．A．people B．reasons C．rules D．jobs 3．A．take up B．take off C．take away D．take in 4．A．old B．new C．cheap D．expensive 5．A．stopping B．supporting C．experiencing D．fighting 6．A．skills B．tasks C．chances D．examples 7．A．satisfying B．careful C．valuable D．personal 8．A．burden B．choice C．must D．pleasure 9．A．hobbies B．roles C．teams D．habits 10．A．Finally B．Suddenly C．Carelessly D．Quietly 【答案】 1．B 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．C 6．A 7．C 8．C 9．B 10．A 【导语】本篇文章是说明文，文章指出AI焦虑是当下的新担忧，分析了AI对就业的双重影响，并从教育、个人学习和社会支持等方面提出了适应AI时代的方法，强调通过提升技能将焦虑转化为机遇。 1．句意：许多人，尤其是职场人士，担心他们的工作可能会被机器取代。 根据上文“AI anxiety”和下文“automation could reduce a large number of jobs”，可知人们担心工作被机器取代，应选用replaced表示“取代”，improved表示“改进”，helped表示“帮助”，challenged表示 “挑战”，均不符合语境。 2．句意：因为研究表明，自动化可能会减少大量像工厂工人和客服这样的工作岗位。 空后列举了“factories workers and customer service”等具体职业，应选用jobs表示“工作岗位”，people表示“人”，reasons表示“原因”，rules表示“规则”，均与语境不符。 3．然而，专家认为，虽然AI可能会夺走一些工作，但它也会创造一些我们今天甚至无法想象的新工作。 根据下文“it will also create new ones”的转折逻辑，可知此处表示AI会“夺走”现有工作，应选用take away表示“夺走；带走”，take up表示“占据；开始从事”，take off 表示“起飞；脱下”，take in表示“吸收；欺骗”，均不符合语境。 4．句意：就像互联网催生了社交媒体经理和应用开发者等工作一样，AI在未来也会带来新的工作。 根据上文“create new ones that we can't even imagine today”，可知AI会带来“新的”工作，应选用new表示“新的”，old表示“旧的”，cheap表示“便宜的”，expensive表示“昂贵的”，均与语境无关。 5．句意：教育系统也在经历这种变化。 根据下文“Schools are starting to teach computer science and data analysis”，可知教育系统正处于变革过程中，应选用 experiencing表示 “经历，经受”，符合“系统正在发生变化”的客观描述；若用supporting表示“支持”，则需体现教育系统主动推动变革的明确动作，而原文仅陈述学校开设相关课程的客观现象，无法直接体现支持的主观态度，故排除。 6．句意：但仅靠技术技能是不够的。 根据上文“teach computer science and data analysis”，可知学校教授的是技术“技能”，应选用skills表示“技能”，tasks表示“任务”，chances表示 “机会”，examples表示 “例子”，均不符合语境。 7．句意：创造力和情商正变得越来越有价值，因为这些是人类比机器做得更好的领域。 根据下文“these are areas where humans do better than machines”，可知这些能力是有价值的，应选用valuable表示“有价值的”，satisfying表示“令人满意的”，careful表示“小心的”，personal表示“个人的”，均不符合语境。 8．句意：对于已经进入职场的人来说，终身学习不再是一种选择，而是一种必须。 根据上文“no longer a choice but a...”的转折逻辑，可知终身学习是一种“必须”，应选用must表示“必须做的事”，burden表示“负担”，choice表示“选择”，pleasure表示“乐趣”，均不符合语境。 9．句意：政府和公司也在为员工转向新角色提供支持。 根据上文“move into new…”和语境，可知员工会转向新的“角色”，应选用roles表示“角色”，hobbies表示“爱好”，teams表示“团队”，habits表示 “习惯”，均不符合语境。 10．句意：通过接受变化和提升技能，最终我们可以将AI焦虑转化为AI机遇。 根据语境，这是文章的总结性表述，应选用Finally表示“最终”，Suddenly表示“突然地”，Carelessly表示“粗心地”，Quietly表示“安静地”，均不符合语境。 6、 短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。 3D animation is loved by people everywhere, and 1 (China) animations are now made with great skill.
