Spot Over 1,000 of these yellow robots,Spot,are already checking factories and power plants.And now the New York City Fire Department is starting to use the dog-like devices for search-and-rescue missions. In April 2024,a Spot surveyed the remains of a fallen car park that was considered too unstable for fire crews to enter.Spot can also send back video images,carry up to 14 kg anid when fitted with an add- on“am”,open doors and press switches. Lightning Swarm Inspired by fireflies,these robots are tiny and can give out light in various colours.The scientists intend the robots to use their lights to signal to and track each other:a low-power communication strategy for a lightweight robot. "We expect sending hundreds or more of these tiny flying robots into a disaster site,and having them jointly search for survivors,"says MIT robotics engineer Prof Kevin Chen."Once a survivor is found, they'll pass the information out to the operators." Trail Blazers At the Bajiao Fire Rescue Station,in Yantai,eastern China,a firefighter tests out a fire-fighting robot. For a few years,China has been promoting the technology,which allows human firefighters to stay safely outside the danger zone while controlling robot firefighters to put out fires at chemical plants and in subways.One major advantage of this approach is fire resistanceTrail Blazers can work at temperatures of 1,000C for over 30 mins. Rooster Thanks to its clever design,Rooster can roll across surfaces or fly around to examine almost any type of disaster site,moving through narrow passages and windows,or over blocks and up or down staircases. Designed to assist in search operations,the robot uses cameras and sensors to scan a space,so that rescuers don't need to enter dangerous areas.Rooster can also communicate with search teams and other robots via a radio link. 21.Which robot can be operated in extremely hot situations? A.Spot. B.Lightning Swarm.C.Trail Blazers. D.Rooster. 22.What do these robots have in common? A.They can operate in high-risk environments. B.They can help conduct rescues. C.They are equipped with sensing tools for environmental detection. D.They are modeled after animals. 23.Where is this text most probably from? A.A science fiction. B.An operating handbook. C.A shopping guideline. D.A science magazine. 8 Bom in Zambia and raised in Portland,25-year-old Asukulu Songolo is the son of Congolese refugees()-a background that,as he says,has deeply shaped his life choices.In the beginning, Songolo planned to study interational relations at Stanford University with a focus on Africa,followed by law school and a potential career as a professor of African history.However,his career path took an unexpected turn after spending the summer of 2023 as an intern (at Marche Noir Lome-Paris,a French fashion boutique(时装店)in Paris during the Haute Couture Week.

Amazon has opened 24 of its Amazon Go stores,which use cameras and artificial intelligence(AD to see what you've taken off shelves and charge you as you walk out.Some start-ups are closely copying Amazon's approach to using AI-powered cameras fixed in ceilings.But others are trying an entirely different way to skip the checkout:smart shopping carts.These companies have added cameras and sensors to the carts,and are using AI to tell what you've placed in them.A built-in scale()weighs items,in case you have to pay by the pound for an item.enstomers pay by using a credit card,or through an online payment system.When customers exit the store,a green light on the shopping cart indicates that their orders are complete,and they're charged. The start-ups behind the smart shopping carts,including Caper and Veeve,say it's much easier to add technology to the shopping cart than to an entire store.Amazon Go stores rely on hundreds of cameras in the ceiling.The shelves also include sensors to tell when an item is removed.Ahmed Beshry,cofounder of Caper,believes the technology to run Amazon Go is too expensive to use in a large grocery store.Neither Caper nor Veeve has said how much their smart shopping carts will cost,making it difficult to compare the different formats.Shariq Siddiqui,CEO of Veeve,said he's finding increased interest from retailers given Amazon's steady expansion of Amazon Go since the first Amazon Go store opened in Seattle in 2018. "We're always happy when Amazon is doing something,"Siddiqui said."They force retailers to get out of their old-school thinking." Bach time a business uses artificial intelligence and cameras,it raises questions about customer privacy and the impact on jobs.Beshry notes that the cameras in his smart shopping cart point down into the cart,so only customers'hands and part of their arms will be caught by cameras. 28.Which of the following best explains"eminate"underlined in paragraph 1? A.Shift. B.Reduce. C.Extend. D.Remove. 29.What do we know about the smart snopping carts? A.They are linked to the cameras fixed in the ceilings. B.They are able to recognize purchases placed in them C They flash the green light when the order is cancelled D.They can tell customers where to find what they want. 30.What docs Beshry think of the technology applied in Amazon Go stores? A.It is far more expensive than their smart shopping carts. B.It has attracted many more retailers than before. 3 ft may increase the cost of running a large grocery store greatly. D It is likely to help retailers to think differently. 31.What is the best title for the text? A.The New Technology Promotes Retail Sales B.AI-powered Cameras Are Used in Retail Stores C.Artificial Intelligence Affects the Future Job Market D.Smart Shopping Carts Will Let You Skip the Line D "Woman reading book,under a night sky,dreamy atmosphere,"I type into Deep Dream Generator's Text 2 Dream feature.In less than a minute,an image is returned to me showing what I've described. Welcome to the world of AI image generation,where you can create what on the surface looks like top-rank artwork using just a few text prompts().But closer examination shows strange things.The face of the woman in my image has very odd features,and appears to be holding multiple books.And,while there's an initial excitement at seeing an image appear,there's no creative satisfaction. AI image generation could influence everything from film to graphic novels and more.Children's illustrators were quick to raise concerns about the technology.They say AI-generated art is the exact opposite of what art is believed to be.Basically,art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists extemally.Whatever form it takes,true art is about the creative process much more than it's about the final piece.And simply pressing a button to generate an image is not a creative process. Beyond creativity,there are deeper issues.To create images from prompts,AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text.This could lead to the creation of images that are intentionally meant to imitate (the style of other artists,without their agreement.There is an argument that AI gererators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others'work.However,a buman artist is also adding emotion and slight difference into the mix.AI doesn't do the same-it can only copy. The increasing use of AI will also lead to a lowering of value of the artists'work.There's already a negative opinion towards the creative industry.People will begin to think that their"work"is as excellent as that created by someone who has spent a career making art.It's nonsense,of course.You can use your mobile phone to take a nice picture of your daughter,but you are no match for professionals. 32.What does the writer think of his image creation? A.Exciting. B.Concerned. C.Unsatisfying. D.Shocking. 33.What do children's illustrators value most about art? A.The final art work B.External expressions in art. C.The opposite of reality. D.The journey to creation. 34.What is paragraph 4 of the text mainly about? A.The moral concerns in Al art imitation. B.Human artists'influence on AI generators. C.The advantages of human artworks. D.The over-reliance of human on technology. 35.What is the author's attitude to the belief that AI works can match professional art? A.Indifferent. B.Uncertain. C.Opposed. D.Supportive. 第二节七选五共5小题；年小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The simple typewriter()was once the unquestioned king of every office around the world.

For nearly a century,the typewriter was the heart of business,jouralism and government.Offices rang with the steady tap-tap of keys,and carbon paper was used to make copies.However,in the 1970s and 1980s,the great digital change took place.37 The arrival of personal computers and word processing software like WordPerfect and Microsoft Word changed how people created documents.38 By the mid-1990s,computers had taken the place of typewriters in almost every workplace,making them out of date and leading famous brands like IBM and Unde.wood to decline. 39 Some writers,collectors and artists have.held onto them,enjoying the feel of typing, the satisfying click when the carriage retums(▣车换行，and the environment that helps people stay focused-all provided by these machines.40 Young people,in particular,are finding their appeal again,and old-style typewriters have become sought-after things on online auction (sites. Though it's no longer used as a tool in modem businesses,the typewriter still exists as a powerful symbol of a communication era. A.Yet,the typewriter never truly went away. B Typewriters are still in use in some fields. C.It started the end of the typewriter's leadership D.Many people love both typewriters and computers. Ediring()became easy,and there were endless ways to format text F.In the years that followed,typing became a highly valued special skill.
