40、d that robots should be taxed in order to help humans keep their jobs. Gates is only one of many people in the tech world who have worried about _21_ and its threat to workers. Its easy to see why the tech world is _22_. The rise of machine learning has increased the fear that _23_ humans could simp

41、ly become out of date-_24_, 3.5 million American truck drivers might soon find their jobs threatened by driverless trucks. Though in the past, technology usually complemented workers _25_ replacing them, theres no law of nature (自然法则) saying the technology of the future will work the same. A few eco

52、. sanitation环境卫生；B. automation自动化；C. meditation沉思；D. dedication献身。根据上文“when he suggested that robots should be taxed in order to help humans keep their jobs. ”可知，盖茨建议对机器人征税是为了保住大家的工作，所以科技界同样有很多人持同样观点，即担心机器自动化（automation）对工人的威胁。故选B项。【22题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：很容易看出科技界为什么会担心。A. furious狂怒地的；B. worried担心的；C. i

53、ntolerant无法忍受的；D. thrilling可怕的。根据上文“ Gates is only one of many people in the tech world who have worried about ”可知，这里是指科技界的担忧（worried）。故选B项。【23题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：机器学习的兴起增加了人们的担忧，即许多人可能会变得落伍例如，350万美国卡车司机可能很快就会发现他们的工作受到无人驾驶卡车的威胁。A. few几乎没有；B. several一些，几个；C. many许多的；D. any任何的。根据下文“ 3.5 million American

55、 date”和下文“3.5 million American truck drivers might soon find their jobs threatened by driverless trucks”可知，下文是对上文的举例，空处表示“例如（for example）”。故选B项。【25题详解】考查介词短语辨析。句意：尽管在过去，技术通常是工人的补充，而不是取代他们，没有自然法则说未来的技术会起同样的作用。A. in case of以防；B. because of因为；C. in face of面对；D. instead of代替。根据上文“Though in the past, tec

56、hnology usually complemented workers”可知，技术通常是工人的补充，而不是（ instead of）取代他们，前后为转折关系。故选D项。【26题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：一些经济学家甚至声称，廉价的自动化已经将收入从工人转移到了公司所有者身上。A. distracted转移，使分散；B. perceived感知，认为；C. prompted提示，引起；D. swallowed吞。根据上文“cheap automation”以及下文“ from workers to company owners”可知，便宜的劳动力可以降低工人的收入，因此也就可以讲收入从工人

57、转移（distracted）带公司老板身上。故选A项。【27题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：另一个恐慌是，即使人类大众最终找到了通过补充新技术来增加价值的新方法正如经济学家埃里克布林约夫松(Erik Brynjofsson)所说的“与机器赛跑”这种转变可能需要很长时间，并伤害很多人。A. panic恐慌；B. empathy共鸣；C. adjustment调整；D. vision视野。根据上文“A few economists even claim that cheap automation has already 6 income from workers to company owners

58、.”可知，这里实在谈另一个廉价自动化给人们到来的恐慌（panic）。故选A项。【28题详解】考查副词词义辨析。句意：最近，我们看到了对全球化影响的缓慢而痛苦的调整。A. possibly可能地；B. recently最近地；C. primarily首要地；D. normally正常地。根据下文“weve seen very slow and painful adjustment to the impact of globalization.”可知，空处应填recently，完成时的标志，同时根据句意可知，这是近来（recently）观察到的结果。故选B项。【29题详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：

59、如果机器学习革命在最终帮助工人之前对他们造成了40年的伤害，那么放慢这场革命的速度，给它们时间调整或许是值得的。A. slow down减缓；B. bring up提出，养育；C. burn out烧尽；D. light up点亮。根据下文“and give them time to adjust.”可知，给它们时间去调整也就是要放慢（slow down）这场革命的速度。故选A项。【30题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：反对机器人征税的主要论点是，这可能会阻碍现代主义。A. modernism现代主义；B. succession继承；C. evacuation撤离，疏散；D. innovatio

60、n创新。根据下文“Taxing new technology, however its done, could make that slowdown worse.”可知，对新技术征税，不管它是怎么做的，都可能使经济放缓变得更糟，也就是说惠阻碍现代主义（modernism）发展进程。故选A项。【31题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：生产率停滞不前，加上商业投资下降，表明目前新技术的采用速度太慢，而不是太快-目前最大的问题不是机器人太多，而是太少。A. persuasion说服；B. adoption采用，领养；C. interruption打断；D. elimination消除，淘汰。根据下文“o

61、f new technology is currently too slow rather than too fast”可知，这里是指对新技术的运用或采用（adoption）。故选B项。【32题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：盖茨的基本建议的问题在于，很难区分补充人类的新技术和取代人类的新技术之间的区别。A. proposal提出，提议；B. moral道德标准；C. gratitude感激；D. misfortune不幸。根据下文“its very hard to tell the difference between new technology that complement humans

62、 and new technology that replaces them. ”可知，这里是一个盖茨提出（proposal）的问题。故选A项。【33题详解】考查副词词义辨析。句意：然而，通过学习操作织布机，人们最终提高了生产率。A. However然而；B. Therefore因此；C. Consequently结果；D. Furthermore而且。根据上句“This is especially true over the long term. Power looms（织布机）replaced human weavers back in the Industrial Revolution.

63、 ”可知，这里指，虽然在工业革命时期，电动织机取代了人工织布，但提高了生产率，所以是转折关系，应用However表示。故选A项。【34题详解】考查介词词义辨析。句意：这是反对自动化征税的有力论据。A. from从；B. against反对；C. by通过；D. besides除外。根据上文“ If taxes had slowed the development of power looms, the eventual (最终的) improvements would have come later.”可知，如果税收减缓了电力织机的发展，最终生产率的改善将会来得更晚，这个例子是反对（again

64、st）自动化征税的有利论证。故选B项。【35题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但考虑到持续创新的重要性，我们应该考虑替代政策。A. random任意的；B. stimulating使人兴奋的；C. persistent坚持不懈的；D. alternative替代的。根据上文“But given the importance of sustaining innovation”可知，考虑到持续创新的重要性，作者是不赞成盖茨的提议，所以希望寻求可替代的（alternative）政策。故选D项。Section B 每题 2 分 2*15=30 分 Directions：Read the followi

80、g as light as possible. The fact that an airplane is up in the air and cant stop if anything goes wrong, makes it perhaps a matter of life or death that its performance is completely dependable.Given a certain power of engine, and consequently a certain fuel consumption, there is a practical limit t

81、o the total weight of aircraft that can be made to fly. Out of that weight as much as possible is wanted for fuel, radio navigational instruments, passenger seats, or freight room, and of course, the passengers or freight themselves. So the structure of the aircraft has to be as small and light as s

82、afety and efficiency will allow. The designer must calculate the normal load that each part will bear. This specialist is called the stress man. He takes notice of any unusual stress that may be put on the part as a precaution against errors in manufacture, accidental damage etc.The stress mans calc

83、ulations go to the designer of the part, and he must make it as strong as the stress man says is necessary. One or two small parts are always tested to prove that they are as strong as the designer intended. Each separate part is tested, then a whole assemblyfor example, a complete wing, and finally

84、 the whole aeroplane. When a new type of aeroplane is being made, normally only one of the first three made will be flown. Two will be destroyed on the ground in strict tests. The third one will be tested in the air.When a plane has passed all the tests it can get a government certificate of airwort

85、hiness, without which it is illegal to fly, except for test flying.Making the working parts reliable is as difficult as making the structure strong enough. The flying controls, the electronic equipment, the fire precautions, etc. must not only be light in weight, but must work both at high altitudes

86、 where the temperature may be below freezing point and in the hot air of an airfield in the tropics.To solve all these problems the aircraft industry has a large number of research workers, with elaborate laboratories and test houses, and new materials to give the best strength in relation to weight

As if that were not bad enough, physicist Hondon published a paper that gave commuters yet another reason to feel uncomfortable. Dr Hondon e

94、xamined mobile phone usage in enclosed spaces such as railway carriages, buses and lifts, all of which are metal boxes. His model predicted that a large number of passengers crowded together, all talking, sending text messages, or browsing the web on their phones, could produce levels of electromagn

95、etic radiation that exceed(超过）international safety standards. That is because the radio waves produced by each phone are reflected off the metal walls of the carriage, bus or lift. Enough radiation escapes to allow the phone to communicate with the network, but the rest fills the inside of the carri

96、age with bouncing microwaves. This sounds worrying. However,in a paper published recently, Jaime Ferrer and Lucas Fernndez-Seivane from the University of Oviedo in Spain, question the truth of Dr Hondons findings. They conclude that the level of radiation is safe after all. In their opinion, while e

97、ach phone produces radiation that bounces around the car, the passengers absorb some of it, which has the effect of reducing the overall intensity. Dr Hondons models, in short, was logical only in the case of a single passenger sitting in an empty carriage with an active mobile phone on every seat.

98、According to Dr Ferrer and his colleagues, Dr Hondon overestimated the level of electromagnetic radiation. When one is sitting on a train, they found, the most important sources of radiation are ones own phone, and those of ones immediate neighbors. The radiation from these sources far exceeds that

99、from other phones or from waves bouncing around the carriage. And all these sources together produce a level of radiation within the limits defined by the ICNIRP, the international body that regulates such matters. People concerned about the effects of mobile-phone radiation are unlikely to take muc

100、h comfort from Dr Ferrets results. Indeed, Dr Ferrer says he is surprised at how little research has been done in this area. Yet both Dr Hondons results and Dr Ferrer are based on mathematical models. Their models make assumptions about the physical properties of train carriages and their passengers

101、, and both assume that the radiation is regularly distributed rather than gathered into “hot spots”. But if the debate about the safely of mobile phone is to be resolved, there must be less focus on models, and more emphasis on physical experimental data.43. Why does the paper published by Dr Hondon

102、 make the commuters worried?A. Because he thinks that the radiation produced by all the mobile phones in the enclosed spaces will bounce around and be harmful.B. Because he holds the view that commuter trains do not meet international radiation safety standards.C. Because the commuters fear that the

103、 metal walls of the railway carriage will threaten their health.D. Because the commuters are afraid that the time for banning the use of mobile phone in the railway carriage is approaching.44. What is the commuters reaction after learning about the new research by Dr Ferrer and his colleagues?A. The

104、y dont worry about the safety of mobile phone any more.B. They expect Dr Ferrer to carry out more researches in this area.C. They still have concerns over the mobile-phone radiation.D. They find the results of all the researches boring.45. Dr Hondons research and that of Dr Ferrer share the followin

105、g similarities EXCEPT _.A. their findings are developed from mathematical models.B. their models are built in a way that the radiation in the enclosed spaces is regularly distributed.C. the models are based on assumptions about the physical properties of train carriages and the passengers.D. they fo

106、cus on a single passenger in the empty railway carriage.46. What is the authors attitude toward the research on the effects of mobile-phone radiation?A. He is surprised that too little research has been carried out in this area.B. He thinks researchers have to depend more on physical experiments.C.

107、He is satisfied with the progress made so far.D. He thinks that the most important thing for the researcher is to perfect their models.【答案】43. A 44. C 45. D 46. B【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家们对封闭空间里使用手机时的辐射进行了研究，其结果各不相同；科学家们也给出了其原因。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“His model predicted that a large number of passeng

114、r.“The whole point of this kind of planning is to provide the family with maximum flexibility so theyre not stuck.”Planning for your death is not a cheerful topic. Too often, parents make a quick decision, ignoring important considerations. Among their mistakes one is that they do not buy enough lif

115、e insurance. _47_“They dont think that the person who is not bringing in an income needs life insurance,”says Greg Daugherty, executive editor of Consumers Union. But if that person dies, the other parent cant stop working and usually has to pay someone to help care for the family._48_. Katt recomme

116、nded that one young couple should buy $3 million for the husband who earns $100,000 a year and $1 million for the stay-at-home wife.At the same time, many families rely on employer-provided life insurance, but employer-provided coverage is rarely sufficient to support your family. Many employer-prov

117、ided policies provide a death benefit of $10,000 to $25,000barely enough to cover your funeral expense. Some employers provide a years salary, but that may also fall well short of the amount your family would need to maintain its standard of living.Some employers let workers buy group life insurance

118、 through payroll deductions. They may be a good deal for workers who have health problems that would disqualify them for an individual policy. But if youre young and healthy, you may be able to get a better rate on your own.Another drawback is that if you leave your job, you may not be able to take

119、your insurance.“Given the job market, most of us are not absolutely certain that our jobs are secure,”Daugherty says.“_49_.”On the other hand, some families buy too much insurance. Not everyone needs life insurance. Some people buy life insurance for babies, which is unnecessary, unless the baby is

120、a child model who is supporting the family, Daugherty says: The purpose of insurance is to replace the income that a family has been relying on. Single people and those who have no children to care for usually dont need life insurance.Katt says a man with substantial savings in stocks and bonds and

121、other sources of income recently asked him how much life insurance he needs. “I said none,”Katt says.“_50_.”A. There are people who dont need life insurance but have it and many more people who need it but are woefully uninsured.B. Families dont always insure a parent who is staying home to care for

122、 the children.C Most people put off buying life insurance for any number of reasons if they even understand it.D. Even if you have a lot of insurance at work, it makes sense to have some more insurance on your own.E. If you fall seriously ill of suffer significant injury later, it will make it tough
