16、kids to study at homeBCompassion and love are concepts that are often thought to be felt by humans only. As the most intelligent creatures to ever walk the earth, we tend to assume that we are the only ones who can feel emotions. We forget that the speechless beings who live here with usanimalsalso

17、have the same capability.During a cold night in Ontario, Canada, a passer-by spotted something on the side of the road that made her stop -a shaking dog curled up in the snow.When she approached the pup, she discovered that she wasnt aloneshe was cuddling five orphaned black kittens to keep them war

18、m.The dog surely could have found a safer place to stay for the night, but she chose instead to help not just herself but other stray animals as well.The Good Samaritan called Pet and Wildlife Rescue and an animal control officer picked them up. When they got to the shelter, it was apparent that a c

19、lose bond had already been formed between the dog and the orphaned kittens. The staff decided to name the kind dog Serenity in honor of her selfless act.Its truly heartwarming! a shelter spokesperson told The Dodo. It had been a very cold night so these kittens would have had a very hard time surviv

20、ing.Aside from requiring treatment for worm and flea infections, the orphaned kittens are now safe. Just like a proud and doting mother, Serenity insisted on checking on her babies regularly to oversee their progress.The good news is that the kittens are now living with a foster family who will care

21、 for them until they are old enough to be adopted. Serenity, on the other hand, is still looking for a family.According to the shelter, she loves zooming around in the yard and is big on playing. She is also quite jumpy, so she would do best in a home without small children.24What did the passer-by

22、see on the road?AA dog curled up in the snow.BFive kittens were in the snow alone.CA dog was warming five kittens in the snow.DA dog found a safe place to stay for the night.25What does the underlined word she in paragraph 3 refer to?AThe passer-by.

DPlaying with some children.27What can we draw from the story?AAnimals and humans should live in harmony.BA sad end can be turned into a positive one.CAnimals have the same capability with humans.DAni

24、mals can feel compassion and love like humans.CFor those who can stomach it working out before breakfast may be more beneficial for health than eating first, according to a study of meal timing and physical activity.Athletes and scientists have long known that meal timing affects performance. Howeve

25、r, far less has been known about how meal timing and exercise might affect general health.To find out, British scientists conducted a study. They first found 10 overweight and inactive but otherwise healthy young men, whose lifestyles are, for better and worse, representative of those of most of us.

26、 They tested the mens fitness and resting metabolic (新陈代谢的) rates and took samples (样品) of their blood and fat tissue.Then, on two separate morning visits to the scientists lab, each man walked for an hour at an average speed that, in theory, should allow his body to rely mainly on fat for fuel. Bef

27、ore one of these workouts, the men skipped breakfast, meaning that they exercised on a completely empty stomach after a long overnight fast (禁食). On the other occasion, they ate a rich morning meal about two hours before they started walking.Just before and an hour after each workout, the scientists

28、 took additional samples of the mens blood and fat tissue.Then they compared the samples. There were considerable differences. Most obviously, the men displayed lower blood sugar levels at the start of their workouts when they had skipped breakfast than when they had eaten. As a result, they burned

29、more fat during walks on an empty stomach than when they had eaten first. On the other hand, they burned slightly more calories (卡路里), on average, during the workout after breakfast than after fasting.But it was the effects deep within the fat cells that may have been the most significant, the resea

30、rchers found. Multiple genes behaved differently, depending on whether someone had eaten or not before walking. Many of these genes produce proteins (蛋白质) that can improve blood sugar regulation and insulin (胰岛素) levels throughout the body and so are associated with improved metabolic health. These

31、genes were much more active when the men had fasted before exercise than when they had breakfasted.The implication of these results is that to gain the greatest health benefits from exercise, it may be wise to skip eating first.28. The underlined expression stomach it in Paragraph 1 most probably me

32、ans _.A. digest the meal easilyB. manage without breakfastC. decide wisely what to eatD. eat whatever is offered29. Why were the 10 people chosen for the experiment?A. Their lifestyles were typical of ordinary people.B. Their lack of exercise led to overweight.C They could walk at an average speed.D

33、. They had slow metabolic rates.30. What happened to those who ate breakfast before exercise?A. They successfully lost weight.B. They consumed a bit more calories.C. They burned more fat on average.D. They displayed higher insulin levels.31. What could be learned from the research?A. A workout after

34、 breakfast improves gene performances.B. Too much workout often slows metabolic rates.C. Lifestyle is not as important as morning exercise.D. Physical exercise before breakfast is better for health.D Hollywoods theory that machines with evil(邪恶) minds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly

35、. The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence(AI) may become extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener, who founded the field of cybernetics(控制论), put it this way: If we use, to achieve our pur

36、poses, a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot effectively interfere(干预), we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire. A machine with a specific purpose has another quality, one that we usually associate with living things: a wis

37、h to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor is it something introduced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetchin

38、g coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we could face a kind of global chess match against very determined, super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict wit

39、h our own, with the real world as the chessboard. The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of computer scientists. Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a kind of firewall, using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing

40、them to affect the real world. Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans, let alone super intelligent machines. Solving the safety problem well enough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not easy. There are pro

41、bably decades in which to plan for the arrival of super intelligent machines. But the problem should not be dismissed out of hand, as it has been by some AI researchers. Some argue that humans and machines can coexist as long as they work in teamsyet that is not possible unless machines share the go

42、als of humans. Others say we can just switch them off as if super intelligent machines are too stupid to think of that possibility. Still others think that super intelligent AI will never happen. On September 11, 1933, famous physicist Ernest Rutherford stated, with confidence, Anyone who expects a

43、source of power in the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine. However, on September 12, 1933, physicist Leo Szilard invented the neutron-induced(中子诱导) nuclear chain reaction.32. Paragraph 1 mainly tells us that artificial intelligence may .A. run out of human control B. satisfy humans r

44、eal desiresC. command armies of killer robots D. work faster than a mathematician33. Machines with specific purposes are associated with living things partly because they might be able to .A. prevent themselves from being destroyedB. achieve their original goals independentlyC. do anything successfu

45、lly with given ordersD. beat humans in international chess matches34. According to some researchers, we can use firewalls to .A. help super intelligent machines work better B. be secure against evil human beingsC. keep machines from being harmed D. avoid robots affecting the world35. What does the a

46、uthor think of the safety problem of super intelligent machines?A. It will disappear with the development of AI. B. It will get worse with human interference.C. It will be solved but with difficulty. D. It will stay for a decade. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5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。Babies Loo

47、k ChangingResearchers show that the early social behavior called look changing is linked to babies ability to learn new language sounds. 36 It is when a baby makes eye contact and then looks at the same object that the other person is looking at.Rechel Brooks, one of the researchers, made a report,

48、showing that babies look changing serves as a building block(基础)for more complicated language and social skills. 37 .In this experiment, nine 5-month-old babies from English-speaking families attended foreign language tutoring sessions. Over four weeks, the tutors talked and played with toys while s

49、peaking Spanish.At the beginning and end of the four-week period, researchers counted how often the babies changed their look. 38 . There they tested how much Spanish language sounds. 39 .

65、g for an hour and watched the 50 or so people swimming in the natural rock pool below our house. It was a sunny day-a blue, cloudless sky over a calm sea. But then, as I looked in the distance, I discovered three or four big waves heading towards the shore. Id seen these mini-tsunamis(海啸) many times

66、 before. They were heading at speed in the direction of the pool. Most people knew how to look out for them, but from the screams that started coming from the beach, I could tell someone was in trouble.Without thinking, I ran down into the street, holding my body board(俯伏冲浪板) on the way and shouted

67、at a stranger to go inside my house and call the coastguard. My neighbor Moises had heard the screaming as well and was also outside with his body board, so together we rushed to the steps that led down to the sea.Once we got closer, we discovered the waves had pulled a boy and a girl from the pool

68、and into the open sea. I knew that the nearest boat would take at least 30 minutes to reach us. Waiting for help wasnt a choice. I wasnt used to this sort of emergency-Id never been trained as a lifeguard-but I didnt think twice about trying to save them. I supposed in a way I wanted to impress ever

69、yone: at 19, a deal like that can seem like a good opportunity to show off.Moises and I dived into the water and it took us 10 minutes to get to them.
