重庆一中高2029届高一上英语定时练习(二) 建议用时：45分钟满分：60分姓名： 班级： 一、阅读理解(每题2.5分，共20分) C Music can convey and represent emotion, and AI cannot do either of those things yet. And especially within jazz and creative music, music is in-the-moment composition(作曲), something that happens as musicians are cooperating onstage. That sense of interaction, or the ability to react in the moment, is something that artificial intelligence can't reproduce because to do that requires being intelligent and being able to use your curiosity and your musical vocabulary. Only then can you be able to react and create music in the moment. With regards to composition, we know that AI has been used to compose music for film and television for quite a few years. That is a concern because AI is doing the work that musicians used to do. But when you hear those compositions by AI, they lack surprise, emotion, and even silence.“I love dramatism in music, and for me, emotion in music is important, and AI is not there yet.” saidSaxophonist and composer Yosvany Terry. As for how music gets to people, this is where we have seen tremendous changes. The many music platforms we have, such as Spotify, YouTube, iTunes, etc., use algorithm-based(基于算法的)features. and they make musical recommendations based on what you listen to. We all know that AI is behind it. Musicians would like to see algorithms suggest composers who are less known rather than those who are already popular. The new technology should make sure that people have access to things that are outside the mainstream, and learn to recognize musical traditions that are not only from the western world. “We must remember that Al is man-made, and as humans we can create and innovate. As a musician, I think we should open our eyes, ears, and arms to work with the new knowledge and innovation that AI can bring.” said Terry. 1. What can be the nature of in-the-moment composition in music? A. It requires playing multiple musical instruments at the same time. B. It has been used to compose music for film and television. C. It depends on the musician's ability to interact and create at the same time. D. It uses algorithms and make musical recommendations based on your interest. 2. Why does Yosvany Terry mention dramatism and emotion of music in his statement? A. To express his personal preference of human composed music to AI music. B. Io highlight the limitations of AI music compared to human composed music. C. To prove AI will not be able to include dramatism or emotion in music. D. To encourage AI developers to focus more on adding dramatism to their music. 3. What can be inferred about the current state of the music market? A. It is flooded with the music of a few popular composers. B. There is a lack of platforms for new composers. C. The audience is not interested in exploring new music. D. Music algorithms are suggesting less-known composers. 4. What is Terry's attitude towards AI in music in the last paragraph? A· Negative B. Positive C. Doubtful D. Indifferent 第1页，共4页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 D Yawning(打哈欠) is something we all do—— maybe because we' re bored carrying out boring tasks or because we' re tired. Sometimes, just seeing other people yawn can set you off. But is this biological function really contagious(传染的), and why do we do it in the first place? Many of us think we open our mouths when we yawn to take in more oxygen, but in fact it appears that there is no clear biological reason. According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggests it might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much like the fan in your laptop. This might be why we' re more likely to feel sleepy and yawn in warm temperatures. What is clear is that we yawn more when we' re exhausted and ready for a nap, and we can't control when we do it—— once we start, there's no stop ping us! But it's also true that yawning is a very contagious behavior. John Drury, a researcher from Sussex University found in his research that there is a connect ion between yawning and our social group, specifically how close we are to the people in it. If we identify with the person who exhibits the behavior, we are likely to copy it too. Another research by the University of Nottingham in 2017 found similar results. They asked volunteers to watch other people yawn. They found their ability to resist yawning when others around them yawned was limited. And the urge to yawn was increased when people were told they couldn't. They also found, when using electrical stimulation(刺激), that they were able to increase people's desire to yawn. These findings, they say, could be useful in treating other conditions likeTourette syndrome(综合症), which involve the same area of the brain. What is certain is that a yawn can creep up on us at any time even when we think we’ re not tired—— but,I hope, not when you' re reading this article! 5. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To share background information. B. To introduce the topic of the text. C. To present the main idea of the text. D. To encourage independent thinking. 6. According to paragraph 2, why do people yawn? A. To fight tiredness. B. To get more oxygen. C. To stop the brain breaking down. D. To lower the brain's temperature. 7. The University of Nottingham researchers found that A. yawning is not a contagious behavior. B. the urge to yawn can't be controlled. C. people can be influenced by others' yawning. D. electrical stimulation helps hold back yawning. 8. What is the text mainly about? A. The reasons for yawning. B. The influence of yawning. C. The value of yawning research. D. The methods of yawning research. 二、七选五(每题2.5分,共12.5分) We have to admit that not everyone is born with the ability to learn quickly.
