【答案】和人口爆炸一样，科技革命在十八世纪开始慢慢加速。之后这场正在进行的革命也突然呈指数地加速。例如，在过去十年中发生的重大新发现比以往整个科学史上的发现都要多，这已成为许多科学领域的一个公理。虽然没有任何一项发现产生了像核武器对我们与战争的关系所产生的影响一样，对我们与地球的关系产生了如此大的影响，但总的来说，它们完全改变了我们为维持生存而不断积累的开采地球的能力，这使得无节制开采的后果与无节制的核战争的后果一样难以想象。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:C

第4题:D

第5题:A

【解析】第1题:事实细节题。题干：作者说当今强大的计算机……A选项“能够可靠地识别物体的形状”；B选项“接近人类行为的表现”；C选项“他们的表现和50年代的没有什么不同”；D选项“仍然不能用人类的语言与人交流”。根据题干定位到第一段第二三句话：Butasusefulascomputersare,they’renowhereclosetoachievinganythingremotelyresemblingtheseearlyaspirationsforhumanlikebehavior.Nevermindsomethingascomplexasconversation:themostpowerfulcomputersstruggletoreliablyrecognizetheshapeofanobject,themostelementaryoftasksforaten-month-oldkid.（尽管计算机很有用，但是它们离实现类似人类行为这一早期愿望还差得很远，更别提像对话这样复杂的事情了：最强大的计算机也很难可靠地识别物体的形状，然而这对一个10个月大的孩子来说是最基本的任务。），从这句可以看出，选项A、B错误，答案选D；选项C文章没有提及。

第2题:事实细节题。题干：人工智能研究的新趋势源于……。A选项“研究的重点转向对物体形状的识别”；B选项“相信人类的智慧不能被逻辑上的、按部递进的程序所复制”；C选项“科学家们渴望复制一个10个月大的孩子的智力”；D选项“科学家们在研究晶体管和脑细胞之间相似性方面所做的努力”。根据题干定位到第二段第二三句话Theproblem,thescientistssay,isthatAIhasbeentryingtoseparatethehighest,mostabstractlevelsofthought,likelanguageandmathematics,andtoduplicatethemwithlogical,step-by-stepprograms.AnewmovementinAI,ontheotherhand,takesacloserlookatthemoreroundaboutwayinwhichnaturecameupwithintelligence.（科学家们表示，问题在于，人工智能一直在试图分离语言和数学等最高、最抽象的思维层次，并用逻辑的、循序渐进的程序来复制它们。另一方面，人工智能领域的一项新运动更深入地探讨了自然与智能之间的间接联系），从这句可以看出科学家指出问题在于人们一直在用看似有逻辑的步骤来复制抽象的思维，但其实这样是行不通的，所以答案选B；A、C选项只是对文章内容的拼接，不是问题所在；D选项文章没有提及。

第3题:事实细节题。题干：康拉德和他的人工智能研究小组一直在努力……。A选项“找到一个迂回的方法来设计功能强大的计算机”；B选项“用一个巧妙的交换机网络构建一台计算机”；C选项“了解智能实际上是如何发展的”；D选项“将思维的最高层次和最抽象的层次分开”。根据题干关键词定位到原文第三段第一句“计算机科学家兼生物物理学家迈克尔•康拉德（MichaelConrad）说，模仿大脑的神经网络（Imitatingthebrain’sneuralnetwork）是朝着正确方向迈出的一大步，但它仍然忽略了自然智能（naturalintelligence）的一个重要方面。”，通过这一句话可以看出，康拉德所做的内容是人工智能和自然智能之间的关系，康拉德赞同人工智能取得进步的想法，但是他同时认为不能忽略自然智能的某一方面。再结合第三段最后两句“具体来说，康拉德认为，大脑的许多能力都源于构成每个脑细胞（eachbraincell）的单个分子的模式识别能力。他声称，制造人工智能设备的最佳方法是围绕同样的分子技能（thesamesortofmolecularskills）来制造。”可知康拉德一直在努力了解大脑本身是如何运作的，再用于人工智能中，因此C选项正确。ABD三项都不符合题干，排除。

第4题:作者意图题。A选项“它在人工智能研究人员中引起了轰动，但很快就会消失”；B选项“这是在复制人类思维过程方面的一个突破”；C选项“这更像是一个奇特的游戏，而不是真正的科学努力”；D选项“它可能被证明是在正确的方向上，尽管没有人能确定它的未来前景”。定位到文章第二段最后一句话Theresultsoftheseearlyeffortsareaspromisingastheyarepeculiar,andthenewnature-basedAImovementisslowlybutsurelymovingtotheforefrontofthefield（这些早期努力的成果既有希望，也有独特之处，新的基于自然的人工智能运动正在缓慢但肯定地走向该领域的前沿），从这里可知答案选D，其他选项不符合题意。

第5题:语义推测题。A选项：“这是制造人工智能计算机的唯一途径”；B选项“这是他们赢得人工智能研究奖的唯一途径”；C选项“计算机科学中唯一值得学习的领域”；D选项“他们在城里唯一想玩的游戏”。第四段最后一句：Butifitprovestrue,thentheeffortsofConradandhisfellowAIrebelscouldturnouttobetheonlygameintown.（但如果这是真的，那么康拉德和他的人工智能伙伴们的努力可能会成为（））然后定位到第三段最后一句：Thebestwaytobuildanartificiallyintelligentdevice,heclaims,wouldbetobuilditaroundthesamesortofmolecularskills（他（康拉德）声称，建造人工智能设备的最好方法是围绕同样的分子技术来建造），从这里可以看出来康拉德另辟蹊径的目的是为了建造人工智能，如果康拉德及其团队的道路是正确的话那么这会是通往城市唯一的游戏，由此可以推测通往城市的唯一游戏是指建造人工智能唯一的方法，所以A选项正确，其他选项不符合题意。

8.单选题

Inpracticethetheoryoftenleavesrailroadsinthepositionofdeterminingwhichcompanieswillflourishandwhichwillfail.

问题1选项

A.decline

B.fluctuate

C.frustrate

D.prosper

【答案】D

【解析】考查动词词义辨析。A选项decline“下降；衰落；谢绝”；B选项fluctuate“波动；涨落；动摇”；C选项frustrate“失败；受挫”；D选项prosper“繁荣，昌盛；成功”。句意：在实践中，这一理论往往使铁路公司处于决定哪些公司会兴旺发达、哪些会倒闭的位置。结合此处关键词fail“衰败；倒闭”，可推测前文的单词应是与之相反的词，得知D选项正确。

9.单选题

Tendaysagotheyoungmaninformedhisbossofhisintentionto（）.

问题1选项

A.resign

B.reject

C.retreat

D.replace

【答案】A

【解析】考查动词辨析。resign“辞职”；reject“拒绝”；retreat“撤退，后退”；replace“代替，替换”。句意：十天前，这个年轻人告知了他的老板他要离职的打算。A项符合题意。

10.单选题

Theparents____thechildtoanurse’scarewhentheywereout.

问题1选项

A.supplied

B.prohibited

C.attested

D.committed

【答案】D

【解析】【选项释义】

A.supplied提供；供应B.prohibited禁止

C.attested证实D.committed（~sbto）送到；委托

【答案】D

【考查点】语义衔接

【解题思路】原句语义为“父母外出的时候把孩子____保姆照顾。”根据前后语义，父母外出的时候，无法亲自照看孩子，因此把他托付给保姆照顾，符合语义逻辑。因此，D选项committed“（~sbto）送到；委托”符合原句语义衔接。

【干扰项排除】A、B、C选项不符合原句语义衔接。

【句意】父母外出的时候把孩子交给保姆照顾。

11.单选题

Althoughthetwoplayersare（

）inthetenniscourt,theyarereallygoodfriends.

问题1选项

A.partners

B.rivals

C.enemies

D.companions

【答案】B

【解析】【试题解析】名词辨析题。A选项partner“同伴、合伙人”；B选项rival“对手、竞争者”；C选项enemy“敌人”；D选项companion“同伴、伙伴”，空格所在的句子为让步状语从句，句子意思为“尽管两位选手在网球场上是对手”，可知空格部分单词意思为“对手”，和主句中的“goodfriends好朋友”是正反义词关系，句意为：尽管两位选手在网球场上是对手，但是她们是很好的朋友。故正确答案选B。

许多人觉得跟计算机打交道比跟人打交道更自在。计算机更有耐心，不会对操作的人评头论足。许多学生向教师请教的时候，总会感到紧张，他们乐于向计算机提问。有些病人更愿意向计算机而不是向医生说明自己的病情，甚至出现了能够解决心理问题的计算机程序，因为许多人觉得与别人讨论自己的心理问题不太自在。
