Night after night, she came to help me sleep, even long after my childhood years.
I don’t remember when it first started making me a little angry—my mom’s hands pushing my hair that way. But it really made me uncomfortable, for they felt rough against my young skin. Finally, one night, I shouted at her, “Don’t do that any more. Your hands are too rough!” She didn’t say anything, but she never did it again.
Years later, I missed my mother’s hands and her goodnight kiss on my face. I’m not a little girl any more. My mom is in her mid-seventies, and her rough hands are still doing things for my family and me.
Now my own children have grown up. It was late on Thanksgiving Eve. As I slept in my bedroom, a familiar hand ran across my face to push the hair from my head. Then a kiss, ever so softly, touched my brow (额头).
Taking my mom’s hand, I told her how sorry I was for that night I shouted at her. But my mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had forgotten it long ago.
The guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found. Instead, I fell asleep with a new appreciation (感激) for my mother’s caring hands.

A new kind of AI job is appearing. It pays six-figure salaries. And it doesn’t require a degree in computer engineering, or even advanced coding skills.
Many companies are looking for people to craft prompts (提示词) that help train AI programs. These people are called prompt engineers. They work on Generative (生成式) AI, such as ChatGPT. This is AI that creates content, such as text, video, and images, in response to a user’s request. Prompt engineers train AI to deliver better responses.
Anna Bernstein, a prompt engineer at Copy AI, writes prompts and feeds them into AI tools. This helps the AI generate text, such as a blog post or email, with accurate information and proper tone. She doesn’t need to write code to do this. She simply types instructions.
AI tools need training. At the moment, they provide results that are not always correct or appropriate. That’s why companies are looking for prompt engineers. A tech company called Anthropic is advertising salaries up to $375,000 for a “prompt engineer”.
Rob Lennon is an expert on the topic. He teaches people the skills needed for the job. “People are eager for this knowledge,” Lennon says.
However, some say the need for this job will burn out. Ethan Mollick is an professor at the University of Pennsylvania. “It’s not clear that prompt engineering is going to matter long-term,” he says. “AI programs are getting better at anticipating what users need and providing better prompts.”
The high salaries may not last either. “These are jobs that probably only 500 people could do right now,” Lennon says. “In six months, 50,000 people will be able to do that job. The value of this knowledge is greater today than it will be tomorrow.”
Just remember: AI systems are changing quickly. The prompts that work today many not work in the future.
61.What do we know about prompt engineers?
A.They don’t get high salaries. B.They collect users’ requests.
C.They train AI to generate better responses. D.They must have degrees in computer engineering.
62.How does Anna Bernstein contribute to AI tools?
A.By writing code. B.By typing instructions.
C.By teaching the AI skills. D.By creating programs.
63.Why do companies need prompt engineers?
A.To create generative AI. B.To provide accurate and appropriate results.
C.To develop AI tools that require training. D.To offer high salaries to qualified individuals.
64.What does the underlined word “anticipating” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.Expecting. B.Recognizing. C.Reminding. D.Experiencing.
65.What does the passage suggest about the future of prompt engineering jobs?
A.The need of them will last for a long time. B.They will remain high-paying in the future.
C.They will no longer exist in the AI industry. D.The value of them will decrease over time.
【答案】61.C 62.B 63.B 64.A 65.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要围绕一种新兴的人工智能相关工作 —— 提示工程师展开说明,介绍了该工作的职责、出现的原因、目前以及未来的发展。

C
Having successful surgery (手术) can help save people’s lives. A doctor’s hands always play an important role when doing surgery. Therefore, scientists are always working hard to use new helpers — robots — to make them more precise (准确的) in surgery.
MicroPort MedBot, a company in Shanghai, made a surgical robot to help doctors do surgery in small space. The robot has four arms and the arms can do things like doctors’ hands. It can also give a 3D picture of the surgery. The robot won the “Super Al Leader” prize at the 2022 World Artificial Intelligence Conference.
Du Qunjian from MicroPort MedBot, said that the robot would help more doctors to do many kinds of difficult surgeries, “There are only a few excellent doctors who are able to do some surgeries across the country,” Du said. “ But with the help of robots, we can solve the problem.”
“Sometimes it takes long to do surgery. And doctors will feel tired easily. With the robot, doctors can see clearly what they’re doing,” Du said. “The robotic surgery could save sick people from the danger of infection (感染) and help them get well faster after the surgery.”
In June, MicroPort MedBot finished two remote (远程的) robotic surgeries at hospitals in Jiangsu and Xinjiang. The company hopes to use 5G to help more people in poor places.
Now surgical robots are not popular in hospitals because of their high costs. But the market for them is expected to grow in China over the next few years. According to a report, the market size for surgical robots in China will grow from $400 million in 2020 to $3.8 billion in 2026.
66.Which questions about the surgical robot can the second paragraph answer?
①Who made it? ②Why was it made?
③How long did it take to make it? ④What does it look like?
⑤What can it do?
A.①②④⑤ B.②③④⑤ C.①②③④ D.①③④⑤
67.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Doctors. B.Scientists. C.The robots. D.Sick people.
68.What can we learn from what Du Qunjian said?
A.He thinks there’s no need to train more excellent doctors.
B.He thinks robots can do difficult surgeries by themselves.
C.He thinks using robots in surgery can help in many ways.
D.He thinks robots will take the place of doctors very soon.
69.Surgical robots are not popular in hospitals because of their ________.
A.shape B.expense C.height D.poor quality
70.What is the writer’s attitude towards the future market size for surgical robots in China?
A.Worried. B.Doubtful. C.Indifferent. D.Hopeful.
【答案】66.A 67.D 68.C 69.B 70.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了上海微创医疗机器人公司研发的手术机器人,阐述其功能、优势、应用案例及中国市场的未来潜力。
【详解】66.细节理解题。根据第二段中“MicroPort MedBot, a company in Shanghai, made a surgical robot to help doctors do surgery in small space. The robot has four arms and the arms can do things like doctors’ hands. It can also give a 3D picture of the surgery. (上海一家名为MicroPort MedBot的公司制造了一款手术机器人,可以帮助医生在狭小的空间里做手术。机器人有四只手臂,这些手臂可以像医生的手一样做事情。它还可以提供手术的3D图像。)”可知,该段回答了谁制造了机器人①、为什么制造②、外观④和功能⑤等问题。故选A。
67.词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“The robotic surgery could save sick people from the danger of infection (感染) and help them get well faster after the surgery. (机器人手术可以使病人免于感染的危险,并帮助他们在手术后更快康复。)”可知,“them”指代“sick people”。故选D。
68.推理判断题。根据第三段“Du Qunjian from MicroPort MedBot, said that the robot would help more doctors to do many kinds of difficult surgeries, “There are only a few excellent doctors who are able to do some surgeries across the country, ” Du said. “ But with the help of robots, we can solve the problem.” (来自微港医疗机器人的杜群建表示,机器人将帮助更多的医生做各种各样的困难手术,“全国只有少数优秀的医生能做一些手术,”杜说。“但在机器人的帮助下,我们可以解决这个问题。”)”和第四段““Sometimes it takes long to do surgery. And doctors will feel tired easily. With the robot, doctors can see clearly what they’re doing,” Du said. “The robotic surgery could save sick people from the danger of infection (感染) and help them get well faster after the surgery.” (“有时手术需要很长时间。医生们会很容易感到疲劳。有了这个机器人,医生们就能清楚地看到自己在做什么,”杜说。“机器人手术可以使病人免受感染的危险,并帮助他们在手术后更快康复。”)”可知,杜群健认为机器人可辅助完成高难度手术、减少医生疲劳、降低感染风险等,体现其对手术机器人的多方面认可。故选C。
69.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Now surgical robots are not popular in hospitals because of their high costs. (现在手术机器人在医院并不受欢迎,因为它们的成本很高。)” 可知,不普及的原因是价格昂贵。故选B。

Night after night, she came to help me sleep, even long after my childhood years.
I don’t remember when it first started making me a little angry—my mom’s hands pushing my hair that way. But it really made me uncomfortable, for they felt rough against my young skin. Finally, one night, I shouted at her, “Don’t do that any more. Your hands are too rough!” She didn’t say anything, but she never did it again.
Years later, I missed my mother’s hands and her goodnight kiss on my face. I’m not a little girl any more. My mom is in her mid-seventies, and her rough hands are still doing things for my family and me.
Now my own children have grown up. It was late on Thanksgiving Eve. As I slept in my bedroom, a familiar hand ran across my face to push the hair from my head. Then a kiss, ever so softly, touched my brow (额头).
Taking my mom’s hand, I told her how sorry I was for that night I shouted at her. But my mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had forgotten it long ago.
The guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found. Instead, I fell asleep with a new appreciation (感激) for my mother’s caring hands.

A.Because her mother’s hands made her uncomfortable.
B.Because someone made her a little angry.
C.Because she didn’t sleep well with her mother’s kiss.

A new kind of AI job is appearing. It pays six-figure salaries. And it doesn’t require a degree in computer engineering, or even advanced coding skills.
Many companies are looking for people to craft prompts (提示词) that help train AI programs. These people are called prompt engineers. They work on Generative (生成式) AI, such as ChatGPT. This is AI that creates content, such as text, video, and images, in response to a user’s request. Prompt engineers train AI to deliver better responses.
Anna Bernstein, a prompt engineer at Copy AI, writes prompts and feeds them into AI tools. This helps the AI generate text, such as a blog post or email, with accurate information and proper tone. She doesn’t need to write code to do this. She simply types instructions.
AI tools need training. At the moment, they provide results that are not always correct or appropriate. That’s why companies are looking for prompt engineers. A tech company called Anthropic is advertising salaries up to $375,000 for a “prompt engineer”.
Rob Lennon is an expert on the topic. He teaches people the skills needed for the job. “People are eager for this knowledge,” Lennon says.
However, some say the need for this job will burn out. Ethan Mollick is an professor at the University of Pennsylvania. “It’s not clear that prompt engineering is going to matter long-term,” he says. “AI programs are getting better at anticipating what users need and providing better prompts.”
The high salaries may not last either. “These are jobs that probably only 500 people could do right now,” Lennon says. “In six months, 50,000 people will be able to do that job. The value of this knowledge is greater today than it will be tomorrow.”
Just remember: AI systems are changing quickly. The prompts that work today many not work in the future.
61.What do we know about prompt engineers?
A.They don’t get high salaries. B.They collect users’ requests.
C.They train AI to generate better responses. D.They must have degrees in computer engineering.
62.How does Anna Bernstein contribute to AI tools?
A.By writing code. B.By typing instructions.
C.By teaching the AI skills. D.By creating programs.
63.Why do companies need prompt engineers?
A.To create generative AI. B.To provide accurate and appropriate results.
C.To develop AI tools that require training. D.To offer high salaries to qualified individuals.
64.What does the underlined word “anticipating” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.Expecting. B.Recognizing. C.Reminding. D.Experiencing.
65.What does the passage suggest about the future of prompt engineering jobs?
A.The need of them will last for a long time. B.They will remain high-paying in the future.
C.They will no longer exist in the AI industry. D.The value of them will decrease over time.

66.Which questions about the surgical robot can the second paragraph answer?
①Who made it? ②Why was it made?
