B.Concerned. C.Objective. D.Indifferent.【答案】32.A33.B34.D35.C【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以爱丁堡边缘艺术节引入人工智能为切入点,通过演员和节目制作者对AI的不同反应,引出公众对AI潜在威胁的担忧以及AI开发领域人士对这种危险的重视,从而引发公众对AI应用的关切。32题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“Butcanitbeasfunnyasahuman?Andifitcan,doesitpresentadangertocomedywritersinthefuture?(但它能像人类一样有趣吗?如果可以,它会对未来的喜剧作家构成威胁吗?)”可知,文章是通过提出问题来展开讨论的,故选A。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“‘WedonotusehumanstoshowoffAI;instead,weuseAItoshowitslimitations,toshowcasehumancreativityonthestage,’saidMirowski,accordingtotheGuardian.(‘我们不会用人类来炫耀人工智能;相反,我们用人工智能来展示它的局限性,在舞台上展示人类的创造力,’《卫报》援引Mirowski的话说)”可知,按照Mirowski的说法,揭示人工智能的缺点是边缘艺术节的目的之一,故选B。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段中“ComedianPeterBazely’sshowhashimplayingasupportingroleto‘anentirelycomputer-generatedcomedian’calledAIJesus.TheFringereviewwebsite,Chortle,talkedabouttoday’sAIconcerns:‘InaworldwhereartistsareworriedthatAIcouldendupdoingtheirjobsforthem,Bazelyissaidtobeprayingthisonewilldoexactlythat.’(喜剧演员PeterBazely在节目中扮演一个‘完全由电脑生成的喜剧演员’,名叫人工智能耶稣。边缘艺术节评论网站Chortle谈到了今天对人工智能的担忧:‘在一个艺术家们担心人工智能最终会代替他们工作的世界里,据说Bazely正在祈祷这个机器人能做到这一点。’)”可知,并非所有艺术家都担心被人工智能取代。故选D。【35题详解】推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文从爱丁堡边缘艺术节上使用了机器人讲笑话引出人工智能的话题,并讲述了节目制作者PiotrMirowski、演员PeterBazely、leadersintheAIindustry等人的不同看法和态度,全文并没有发表作者的个人观点,作者只是在客观地陈述事实,并没有讲述自己对人工智能的未来发展的看法,所以作者对人工智能的应用持客观态度。故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Lifeisn’tfair.Somepeoplejustseemblessedwiththeabilitytoeffortlesslycharm(吸引)anyonetheymeet.Well,itmightseemlikeamagicalpower,butinfactthereareanumberoffactorsatwork.____36____Theansweris:toalargeextent,yesyoucan.Butfirst,thebadnews.Peopleatfirstjudgeeachotheraccordingtophysicalappearance.Withjustaglimpseofaface,peoplemakequickjudgementsabouteachother’slikeability,trustworthinessandconfidence.Howshouldwedealwiththis?____37____Peopleregardasmilingfaceasmoretrustworthy,warmerandsociable.Itsoundslikecommonsense,doesn’tit?Smileandotherswillsmilewithyou.Whatothertricksmightwehave?____38____Consequently,threethingswecandotosignalthatwearenotathreat:raiseoureyebrowsquickly,raiseourheadsslightly,andonceagain,tosmile.Sowe’velookedatbodylanguage,butofcoursewhatyousayishugelyimportanttoo,unlessyouwanttojuststandtheresmilingfoolishly.Thegoldenruleoffriendshipisifyoumakepeoplefeelgoodaboutthemselves,they’regoingtolikeyou.Inotherwords,youshouldnottalkaboutyourselfandallyourwonderfulachievements.____39____.Finally,findingcommongroundhelpsformaconnection.Charmingpeopleareparticularlyskilledatseekingoutsharedinterestsorexperiencestobondwithothers.____40____Andifallelsefails,youcanfallbackonthatmostBritishtopic:theweather.Itcanbeanicestartofaconversation.A.Instead,youneedtoshowinterestinthem.B.So,canyoulearntodevelopsuperhumancharm?C.There’sonesurprisinglysimpletool:yoursmile.D.Sharedinterestsarethekeytomakingconnectionswithothers.EAskingwheresomeone’sfromallowsyoutofindareasincommon.F.Ourbrainsoftensurveytheenvironmentforfriendorenemysignals.G.Whatgoodtricksmightwetakeadvantageoftobecomecharming?【答案】36.B37.C38.F39.A40.E【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。有些人似乎有能力毫不费力地吸引别人,它可能看起来像一种神奇的力量,文章主要就如何培养吸引人的魅力提出了一些方法。【36题详解】根据空后“Theansweris:toalargeextent,yesyoucan.(答案是:在很大程度上可以)”可推测,空处为一个问句;结合上文“Somepeoplejustseemblessedwiththeabilitytoeffortlesslycharm(吸引)anyonetheymeet.Well,itmightseemlikeamagicalpower,butinfactthereareanumberoffactorsatwork.(有些人似乎天生就有能力毫不费力地吸引他们遇到的任何人。好吧,这似乎是一种神奇的力量,但实际上有很多因素在起作用)”可知,B项“那么,你能学会培养非凡的魅力吗?”与空前内容一致,同时也是一个问句。故选B。【37题详解】上文“Howshouldwedealwiththis?(我们应该如何处理这个问题?)”提问如何处理这个问题,结合下文“Peopleregardasmilingfaceasmoretrustworthy,warmerandsociable.(人们认为微笑的脸更值得信赖、更温暖、更善于交际)”可知,空处应是回答上文的问题,且与微笑有关,C项“有一个非常简单的工具:你的微笑”符合语境。故选C。【38题详解】根据下文“Consequently,threethingswecandotosignalthatwearenotathreat:raiseoureyebrowsquickly,raiseourheadsslightly,andonceagain,tosmile.(因此,我们可以做三件事来表明我们不是威胁:迅速扬起眉毛,轻微抬起头,再一次,微笑)”可知,我们需要做一些事情来表明我们不是威胁,F项“我们的大脑会审视周围的环境,寻找是敌是友的信号”构成下文需要做一些事情来表明我们不是威胁的原因,衔接恰当。故选F。【39题详解】上文“Inotherwords,youshouldnottalkaboutyourselfandallyourwonderfulachievements.(换句话说,你不应该谈论你自己和你所有的辉煌成就)”说明想对方接纳我们,就不应该只是聊自己的成就,A项“相反,你需要表现出对他们的兴趣”衔接上文,引出正确的做法是要关注对方。故选A。【40题详解】上文“Charmingpeopleareparticularlyskilledatseekingoutsharedinterestsorexperiencestobondwithothers.(有魅力的人特别擅长寻找共同的兴趣或经历来与他人建立联系)”提到寻找共同的兴趣或经历来与他人建立联系,E项“询问对方来自哪里可以让你找到共同点”对上文具体举例说明。故选E。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。AdamWolfersbelievesthathisson’sautism(自闭症)hasapositiveimpactonhishobbyofphotography.10-year-oldMorganhasalwayspossesseda____41____eyeforcapturingtheworldaroundhimthroughhiscamera.Diagnosed(被诊断)withautismattheageof3,Morganhashadahardtime
