Many people start their mornings by asking Alexa for the weather forecast or the latest news. A device (设备)that houses Alexa can also play music from your favorite playlists, keep a shopping list, order takeout food, answer questions, send voice messages and even run“ smart” home controlsTraining AI systems to respond to problems with human-like intelligenceand learn from their mistakes can take months, or even years. Consider Alexa and similar software, such as Apples Siri. To do the tasks its human owners ask, these systems must make sense of and then respond to sentences such as, “Alexa, play my Ed Sheeran playlist ”or “Siri , what is the capital of India？”Computers cant understand language as it is spoken by people. So AI researchers must find a way to help humans communicate with computers. The technology used to get computers to “understand” human speech or text is known as natural language processing. By natural language, computer scientists refer to the way people naturally talk or write. To teach an AI system a task like comprehending a sentence or responding to a person s last move in a board game, scientists need to feed it lots of examples.AlphaGO is an AI system designed by Google that has beaten a human champion, Lee Sedol, at the strategy(策略)board game Go. To train AlphaGo，Google had to show it 30 million Go moves that people had made while playing the game. Then AlphaGo used what it learned to analyze those plays as it played against different versions (版本) of itself. During this practice, the program came up with new moves ones never seen in games between people.Computers, software and devices that are powered by AI can do much more, however, than just play board games and music. And one day they could make our life much easier and much more interesting.24. What does the example of Alexa show?A. AI may replace humans one day.B. Al is playing a role in our modern life.C. AI has been widely used around the world.D. AI has totally changed peoples bad habits.25. How do scientists train AI systems?A. By testing them thousands of times.B. By teaching them almost everything.C. By giving them quite a lot of tasks to do.D. By providing them with large amounts of data.26. What can we learn about AlphaGo?A. It has become very skillful and intelligent.B. It is the most convenient AI system.C. It avoids making any mistakes.D. It just follows human orders.27. Whats the authors attitude toward AI?A. Unconcerned. B. Worried. C. Respectful. D. Positive. C “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Similarly, if we drink a little more water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often. A healthy diet is made up of water and a great many different kinds of foods. We know that healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and fish, are important as they provide us with energy and fiber, without giving us too much fat and sugar. But why is water important?The human body needs water to survive. Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies. However, doctors advise us to drink plenty of water, much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.Some doctors believe that water is important for our health in all kinds of ways. They believe that a great many illnesses and health problems start as a result of dehydration (脱水)-a lack of water in the body. Most people are dehydrated at least some of time, although they probably dont know it. It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty, we are already in the first stage of dehydration. In fact, we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.These doctors think that health problems such as headaches, high blood pressure and asthma (哮喘) could be helped if people drink more water. They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are overweight. Water contains no calories so it will not make us put on weight. If we drink water, we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks such as Coca-cola. Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating. They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are, in fact, thirsty. Doctors suggest, therefore, that we eat less food and drink more water. There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water, so we should not stop going to seeing the doctor completely. However, if we make a decision to drink water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often.28. From the text, we know water can carry_.A. energy and fiber in our bodiesB. fruit, vegetables and fish in our bodiesC. sugar and fat out of our bodiesD. poisons and waste out of our bodies29.

Lack of water caused people to put on weight too much because_.A. they think they are thirsty and eat lessB. they think they are hungry and eat too muchC. water has no caloriesD. it makes them thirsty31. Which of the following isnt mentioned in the passage?A. The amount of water a person should drink in a day.B. Some healthy problems start because of a lack of water.C. Drinking more water may stop people from overeating.D. Fruitprovidesuswithenergyandfiber.DMy wife and I went to this vegan(严格的素食主义的) restaurant to give it a try.
