35、 a VPA for directions,your speech is often sent and saved to a remote server for processing.This digital information may lead to data mining,or the collection of large quantities of personal data.For now,however,the continuing evolution of ASR software is thrilling to behold.Asking for and acquiring
36、 information from an automated source has never been easier.Leading companies in the speech recognition world will make human communication with machines as seamless as possiblein other words,just like communicating with another human.【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。文章在开头提到了ASR(Automated Speech Recognition)自动语音识别的概念,

39、problems with ASR.CThe fast development of ASR.DMovements against using ASR.B主旨大意题。第三段首句为本段的主题句“While the potential for communication between a human and a machine may seem exciting,this possibility concerns some people.(虽然人类和机器之间的交流的可能性看起来令人兴奋,但这种可能性使一些人担忧。)”本段接下来讲的就是一些人机交流出现的问题;第四段第一句“Another conc
40、ern often associated with the development of new technology is the invasion of privacy.(另一个担忧的问题是与新技术发展相关的对隐私的侵犯。)”可知,第四段同样解释的是人机相互交流之间的问题。所以两段可以作为同一个话题来讲述,即讲述人机相互交流之间的问题。选项B“ASR的潜在问题”符合题意。故选B项。14What is the authors attitude towards the future of ASR?AWorried. BDoubtful.CHopeful. DIndifferent.C推理判断题
