隨堂訓(xùn)練—用單元所學(xué)知識補全語段(說明:文中加黑詞匯為本單元主題詞匯)(2024·新高考Ⅱ卷·閱讀理解D篇)Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (變革).In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代碼) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable.She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow AI” to Artificial General Intelligence.From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence.This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place.She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.Campbell's point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it.She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction level event for humanity.We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out.Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.[真題評價]1.What does the phrase “In the

I tried to say “Turn on the light” to it countless times, but Alex didn't work. “New technologies are always unreliable,” my husband complained.I searched the Internet and immediately found the reason why Alex couldn't work. I just needed to tell Alex to set the light color to white or whatever color I wanted, and then it would turn on the light. I thought I should thank my children and grandchildren for they taught me to use technology so that I could find a solution on the Internet by myself. Our children and grandchildren “force” us to accept and use technology, which seems to put us under pressure.However, the fact is that they let us really accept and use technology to make our life more convenient.19 / 19(共171張PPT)目錄CONTENTS遷移應(yīng)用—過閱讀關(guān)03.發(fā)展提升—過表達(dá)關(guān)04.自主學(xué)習(xí)—過識記關(guān)01.課堂學(xué)案—過詞匯關(guān)02.課下測評—過高考關(guān)05.1自主學(xué)習(xí)—過識記關(guān)|背|單|詞|一、閱讀單詞(明其義)1.castle n. 城堡2.network n. 網(wǎng)絡(luò),網(wǎng)狀系統(tǒng);關(guān)系網(wǎng)3.coin vt. 創(chuàng)造(新詞語)4.a(chǎn)utonomous adj. 自主的,有自主權(quán)的;自治的5.domestic adj. 家庭的,家用的;本國的,國內(nèi)的6.victim n. 受害者,犧牲品;受騙者;祭品7.database n. 數(shù)據(jù)庫8.hacker n. 黑客9.theft n. 偷竊,偷竊罪10.fail -safe adj. 有自動保險裝置的11.drone n. 無人駕駛飛機12.a(chǎn)irline n. 航空公司13.spy vi. 從事間諜活動vt. 突然看見n. 間諜14.licence n. 許可證,執(zhí)照15.stadium n. 體育場,運動場16.capsule n. 小塑料容器;(裝藥的)膠囊17.fountain n. 噴射,涌流;噴水池;源泉18.contemporary adj. 當(dāng)代的,現(xiàn)代的;屬同時期的n. 同代人,同輩人19.seed n. 種子;起源,起因20.virtual adj. 虛擬的,模擬的;很接近的21.definition n. 定義;釋義,解釋22.headset n. 耳機23.sensor n. 傳感器,敏感元件24.immersive adj. 沉浸式虛擬現(xiàn)實的25.barrier n. 障礙;屏障,障礙物;隔閡26.fine- tune vt. 對……微調(diào)27.initial adj. 最初的,開始的n. 首字母28.State- of- the- art adj. 使用最先進技術(shù)(或方法)的,最先進的29.globe n. 球體,球狀物;地球儀;地球二、核心單詞(書寫準(zhǔn))1.capacity n. 領(lǐng)悟(或理解、辦事)能力;容量,容積;職位,職責(zé);生產(chǎn)量2.breakthrough n. 重大進展,突破adj. 突破性的3.commit vt. 犯(罪);承諾,保證;花(錢或時間)vi. 全心全意投入,忠于4.urge vt. 敦促,催促;大力推薦,竭力主張;驅(qū)趕,鞭策n. 沖動,強烈的欲望5.pose vt. 造成,產(chǎn)生;提問,質(zhì)詢vi. 擺好姿勢n. 姿勢6.warning n. 警告,先兆;警戒7.demand vt. 需要;強烈要求n. 要求,所需之物;需求,需要8.recognition n. 識別,認(rèn)出;承認(rèn),認(rèn)可;贊譽,賞識9.a(chǎn)lternative n. 可供選擇的事物adj. 可供替代的;非傳統(tǒng)的10.predict vt. 預(yù)言,預(yù)告11.decrease vt.& vi. 減少,降低n. 減少,降低12.deny vt. 否認(rèn),否定;拒絕承認(rèn),拒絕接受13.quantity n. 數(shù)量;大量14.illegal adj. 不合法的,非法的15.monitor vt. 監(jiān)視,跟蹤調(diào)查;監(jiān)聽n. 顯示屏;監(jiān)測器;班長16.highlight n. 最好(或最精彩)的部分vt. 突出,強調(diào);使醒目17.conclude vt.& vi. 斷定,推斷出;達(dá)成,訂立;(使)結(jié)束,終止18.justified adj. 合乎情理的,事出有因的;有正當(dāng)理由的19.superiority n. 優(yōu)越感;優(yōu)越性,優(yōu)勢20.practical adj. 實際的,真實的;切實可行的;有用的;實事求是的21.a(chǎn)cademic adj. 教學(xué)的,學(xué)術(shù)的;學(xué)習(xí)良好的;純理論的22.optimistic adj. 樂觀的,抱樂觀看法的23.envy n.& vt. 羨慕,忌妒三、變形單詞(曉其變)1.input n. 輸入的信息;投入 vt.輸入(信息) output (反義詞) n. 輸出;輸出量;產(chǎn)量 vt.輸出2.a(chǎn)nalyse vt. 分析analysis n. 分析analytical adj. 分析的;解析的;善于分析的3.mass n. 大量massive adj. 巨大的,大而重的;非常嚴(yán)重的massively adv. 巨大地;大量地4.finance n. 財政,金融;資金;財力,財務(wù)管理vt.提供資金financial adj. 財政的,金融的;財務(wù)的5.crime n. 罪,罪行;犯罪活動criminal adj. 犯罪的 n.罪犯6.murder vt.& n. 謀殺,兇殺murderer n. 謀殺犯;兇手7.a(chǎn)pparent adj. 明顯的;顯而易見的apparently adv. 顯然,可見8.greed n. 貪婪;貪心greedy adj. 貪心的,貪婪的greedily adv. 貪婪地;貪食地9.distribute vt. 使分布,分散;分發(fā),分配;分銷distribution n. 分發(fā),分送;分配,分布distributor n. 經(jīng)銷商;分銷商10.threat n. 構(gòu)成威脅的人(或事物);威脅,恐嚇;兇兆threaten vt. 危及,對……構(gòu)成威脅;威脅,恐嚇threatening adj. 恐嚇的;具有威脅的11.bury vt. 埋藏;埋葬,安葬;覆蓋;遮蓋;使陷入buried adj. 埋在地下的;埋葬的;埋藏的burial n. 埋葬;葬禮12.engage vt. & vi. 吸引住(注意力、興趣);雇用,聘用engaged adj. 忙于,從事于;已訂婚的engagement n. 婚約;約會13.a(chǎn)nnoy vt. 使惱怒,使生氣;打擾,騷擾annoyed adj. 惱怒的,煩惱的annoying adj. 使人惱怒的annoyance n. 惱怒,煩惱14.expense n. 費用;開銷;開支expensive adj. 昂貴的;花錢多的四、同“族”詞匯(巧積累)1.回應(yīng)合理“要求”①demand n.& v. 要求;強烈要求②ask v. 請求;要求③beg v. 請求;乞求④require v. 要求;需求2.做出最佳“選擇”①alternative n. 可供選擇的事物②choose v. 選擇③select v. 選擇;挑選④optional adj. 可選擇的3.掃除一切“障礙”①barrier ②obstacle③hinder ④obstruct⑤rub ⑥bar|背|短|語|1.(build) castles in the air (建)空中樓閣,幻想,空想2.to name but a few 略舉幾例3.fall victim to 受傷,受損,被害4.break into 強行闖入,撬開;突然開始(笑、唱等);順利打入5.in large quantities 大量,大批6.spy on 暗中監(jiān)視,窺探7.a(chǎn)t the forefront of 處于最前列,進入重要地位8.a(chǎn) host of 許多,大量9.boil down to 歸結(jié)為,基本問題是10.like weeds 大量11.a(chǎn)t the expense of 在犧牲(或損害)……的情況下12.come true 實現(xiàn)13.a(chǎn)djust to 適合;適應(yīng)14.put forward 提出(計劃、建議)15.in short 簡而言之;總之16.get close to 接近;靠近17.to one's advantage 對某人有利18.be equipped with 配備……,裝備……19.figure out 弄清楚20.in terms of ... 就……來說;從……角度|背|佳|句|一、背教材原句,學(xué)高級句式1.There can be no denying that the technology will have a huge impact on everyday life.(There's no denying that ...)無可否認(rèn),這種技術(shù)將對日常生活產(chǎn)生重大影響。2.When shopping online, you can look forward to being able to have your own virtual reality clone try on clothes and to see products with 360 -degree views.(狀語從句的省略)網(wǎng)上購物時,你可以期待自己的虛擬現(xiàn)實克隆人替你試穿衣服、360°全方位查看產(chǎn)品。3.You could be away from your busy life and travel to a far distant land instantly — all you need to do is touch a few buttons.(作表語的不定式省略to)你可以從繁忙的生活中解脫出來,立即到遙遠(yuǎn)的地方旅行——你所需要做的就是按幾個按鈕。二、背主題佳句,學(xué)出彩表達(dá)單元主題:科技發(fā)展1.In conclusion, I believe the development of science and technology brings significant impacts to our life.總之,我相信科技的發(fā)展會給我們的生活帶來重大的影響。2.This technological product makes it possible for us to make visual communication with anyone no matter when and where we are.這項技術(shù)產(chǎn)品使我們無論何時何地與任何人進行視頻交流成為可能。|背|語|段|以讀促寫:情感表達(dá)之“困惑”Much to my surprise, Evelyn added that she thought it was cool when I talked to my parents with my hands.

astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI -powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (變革).__________________, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代碼) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable.She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.In the wrong handsAs we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow- AI” to Artificial General Intelligence.From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence.This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place.She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.Campbell's point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it.She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction -level event for humanity.We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out.Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.[真題評價][價值導(dǎo)向] 本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了Catriona Campbell所著AI by Design: A Plan for

I tried to say “Turn on the light” to it countless times, but Alex didn't work. “New technologies are always unreliable,” my husband complained.I searched the Internet and immediately found the reason why Alex couldn't work. I just needed to tell Alex to set the light color to white or whatever color I wanted, and then it would turn on the light.I thought I should thank my children and grandchildren for they taught me to use technology so that I could find a solution on the Internet by myself. Our children and grandchildren “force” us to accept and use technology, which seems to put us under pressure.However, the fact is that they let us really accept and use technology to make our life more convenient.5課下測評—過高考關(guān) 課時作業(yè)(一) 主題閱讀集群訓(xùn)練 Ⅰ.閱讀理解A(2025·平?jīng)瞿M)Last Friday, a special concert took place at the National Theater of Korea.It included five different pieces of music.Two were conducted by a robot called EveR 6, and two were conducted by Soo- Yeoul Choi, who leads the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.Both conductors worked together on the final piece.EveR 6 is a robot built by the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology.It's about as tall as a person, and has a human -like face that can show emotions.It has joints in its neck, shoulders, elbows, and wrists.As a result, it can move its arms quickly and smoothly in many different directions.But EveR 6 doesn't think on its own like some advanced Artificial Intelligence programs.Instead, it has a limited group of movements that it has been trained to perform.To make these movements as natural as possible, EveR 6's movements are based on motions of real human conductors.When EveR 6 swung its baton for the first time, a gong rang out.Every movement of the robot's arms brought more instruments into the mix, and the orchestra's music grew louder and more exciting.Mr Choi was impressed with the way EveR 6 moved.“The robot was able to present such detailed moves much better than I had imagined,”he said.But the robot still is not nearly ready to replace a human conductor.Mr Choi says the robot's greatest weakness is that it can't hear.“Some people think that conducting is just a combination of hand waving and keeping the beat,”says Mr Choi.But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra, so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays.Mr Choi said that once EveR 6 started,“the musicians had no choice but to follow its beats.” He said this created a situation where “the performers have to communicate and ‘sense’ each other to follow the correct beats.”Mr Choi doesn't think robots are likely to replace human conductors.But he believes robots could be helpful in situations like practice sessions where the same thing needs to be repeated many times.語篇解讀:本文是一篇新聞報道。文章講述了機器人指揮管弦樂隊的情況。1.What is the main disadvantage of EveR 6 A.It cannot keep the beat steady.B.Its movements are not so natural.C.It cannot show emotions like humans.D.It lacks the ability of thinking independently.解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一句可知,它的主要缺點是無法獨立思考。√2.What did Mr Choi mean by saying that“the musicians had no choice but to follow its beats”?A.The robot is programmed with correct beats.B.The musicians are not allowed to communicate.C.The robot is trained to be strict with the performers.D.The robot cannot interact with the musicians.解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中Choi說的話可知,音樂家們“別無選擇,只能跟著節(jié)拍走”,是因為機器人不能和樂隊互動交流。√3.What is Mr Choi's attitude toward EveR 6 A.Negative. B.Objective.C.Subjective. D.Indifferent.解析:觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容可知,Choi分別說明了機器人的優(yōu)點和缺點,可推斷出他對機器人的評價是客觀的。√4.Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage A.Robot EveR 6 conducts an orchestraB.A competition between human and robotC.The power of AI robot technologyD.Revive orchestral performances in Korea解析:標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段并結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容可知,本文主要講述了機器人EveR 6指揮管弦樂隊的情況。故A項“機器人EveR 6指揮管弦樂隊”適合作文章標(biāo)題。√B(2025·郴州模擬)Imagine living in a cool, green city alive with parks and threaded with footpaths, bike lanes and buses which transport people to shops, schools and service centers in a matter of minutes.This fancy dream is behind the idea of the 15 -minute city, where all basic needs and services are within a quarter of an hour's reach, improving public health and lowering vehicle emissions.Artificial intelligence could help urban planners realize that vision faster, with a new study from researchers at Tsinghua University in China demonstrating how machine learning can generate more efficient spatial layouts (空間布局) than humans can.Automation scientist Zheng Yu and his colleagues wanted to find new solutions to improve our cities which are fast becoming blocked. They developed an AI system to tackle the tough tasks of urban planning and found it can produce urban plans that outperform human designs by about 50 percent in three aspects: access to services, green spaces and traffic levels.Starting small, Zheng's team tasked their model with designing the urban area only a few square kilometers in size (about 3×3 blocks).After two days of training, the AI system searched for the ideal road designs and land use to fit with the concept of the 15- minute city and local planning policies and needs.While the AI model has some capabilities that could extend its use for planning larger urban areas, designing entire cities will be more complex.Drafting a neighborhood consisting of 4×4 blocks contains twice as many planning decisions as designing 3×3 blocks, the researchers said.But automating even a few steps in the planning process can save huge amounts of time:the AI model can compute in seconds certain tasks that take human planners between 50 to 100 minutes to work through.Rather than AI replacing people, Zheng and his colleagues think their AI system can work as an“assistant”to urban planners, who could generate concept designs optimized (優(yōu)化) by the system, and reviewed, adjusted and evaluated by human experts based on community feedback.語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了清華大學(xué)研究人員的一項新研究,展示了人工智能可以幫助城市規(guī)劃者更快地創(chuàng)建城市規(guī)劃設(shè)計。5.According to the text, which of the following is NOT a benefit of the “15 -minute city” concept A.Better public health.B.Lower vehicle emissions.C.Decreased access to green spaces.D.Fast and convenient service.解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段可知,不是減少了進入綠地的機會,而是機會更多。√6.Which major issue in cities did Zheng Yu and his team want to address A.High levels of pollution.B.Limited access to public services.C.Shortage of affordable housing.D.Rising crowding and traffic problems.解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知,日益擁擠和交通問題是他們想要解決的城市中的主要問題。√7.What can be concluded from the text about the AI model's capabilities A.It can design entire cities efficiently.B.It takes longer to train for larger urban areas.C.It can complete tasks much faster than human planners.D.It is limited to planning only a few square kilometers at a time.解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后一句可知,人工智能完成任務(wù)的速度比人類設(shè)計師更快。√8.What's the best title for this passage A.Designing Better Cities with AIB.The 15- Minute City: A Dream or Reality C.Improving Public Health with Greener CitiesD.The Role of Machine Learning in Urban Design解析:標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)第三段并結(jié)合下文可知,本文主要介紹的是利用人工智能可以設(shè)計出更好的城市。故A項“利用人工智能設(shè)計更好的城市”適合作本文標(biāo)題。√Ⅱ.閱讀七選五(2025·武漢模擬)Loneliness is a bigger health threat than smoking 15 cigarettes a day, according to a new research.Our ancestors likely did not suffer from a lack of companions.Why has loneliness become such a threat How might it be addressed 精品課件·名師析題In the distant past, there were few complaints about loneliness.Indeed, every person in a community including children was up to speed on every detail of the lives of everyone else.Instead of suffering from loneliness, our distant ancestors were oppressed (被壓迫) by a lack of privacy. ______They facilitate distance.How did loneliness take over contemporary life 9Typically, people move away from family and friends for work opportunities.Yet, cities often function as gatherings of relative strangers rather than functional communities.The many people wandering around in a city are irrelevant if we have no social connection with them.Migrants to cities may establish various meaningful social links. _____These might be the people we work among, those who frequent a coffee shop, or members of a gym or sports club.Such associations are not made automatically. ____In some cases, those who eagerly need social connection can fare poorly in cities.1011_____According to the US Surgeon General's Report on Loneliness, people who spend more time online are lonelier.People who claim thousands of online “friends” are often chronically anxious, disconnected and depressed.Perhaps, they would gain better social bonus by being kind to people in real life.12Virtually, not everyone needs constant companionship.This is not merely a question of how extroverted a person is. ____People with a strong sense of external purpose barely suffer from loneliness, whether they perfect their dance moves, get involved in political activism or train service dogs.In this vein, anyone who cultivates a love of nature may become a part of the natural world.That is an endless source of peace, happiness, and connection.13A.Their habits contributed to loneliness.B.They require openness, initiative and effort.C.Rather, it reflects how someone leads their life.D.Outgoing people will live a busy life with social media.E.Today, social media bring back the invasions of privacy.F.Many turn to social media for companionship with mixed results.G.However, associations are often formed through accidental networks.語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了在現(xiàn)代網(wǎng)絡(luò)社會,孤獨感成為健康殺手,分析了原因并給出了建議。9.解析:選E 上文主要講過去我們祖先的生活,他們不孤獨,沒有隱私空間,而下文是講述我們現(xiàn)在的生活,人們常常感到孤獨。由此可知,E項“今天,社交媒體帶來了對隱私的侵犯”承上啟下,符合語境。空后“They”指代E項“social media”。10.解析:選G 上文說在城市工作可以建立有意義的社會聯(lián)系,而下文卻列舉了一些隨機組成的社會群體,由此可知,G項“然而,聯(lián)系往往是通過偶然的網(wǎng)絡(luò)形成的”承上啟下,符合語境。11.解析:選B 根據(jù)上文可知,這些社群并不是自動形成的。B項“它們需要開放、主動和努力”承接上文,符合語境,其中“they”指代上文中“Such associations”。12.解析:選F 空處為段首句,應(yīng)概括下文。根據(jù)下文可知,本段在講經(jīng)常和在線網(wǎng)友交往的人更孤獨,建議和現(xiàn)實生活中的朋友真心交往。由此可知,F(xiàn)項“許多人轉(zhuǎn)向社交媒體尋求陪伴,結(jié)果好壞參半”符合語境。13.解析:選C 上文指出,有些人并不需要他人的持續(xù)陪伴,性格外向程度是一方面,卻不僅限于此,下文列舉了一些人的生活方式。故C項“相反,它反映了一個人如何過自己的生活”承上啟下,符合語境。 課時作業(yè)(二) 語言技能綜合訓(xùn)練 Ⅰ.完形填空(2025·沈陽模擬)While enjoying my fresh lunch in a restaurant in Amsterdam, I

(對應(yīng)伏筆2) Inspired by Jack's intelligence, our group continued to explore ways to recycle waste, knowing that small actions could lead to big changes in our community and beyond.3 / 4選擇性必修2 UNIT 4課時作業(yè)(一)主題閱讀集群訓(xùn)練Ⅰ.閱讀理解A(2025·平?jīng)瞿M)Last Friday, a special concert took place at the National Theater of Korea.It included five different pieces of music.Two were conducted by a robot called EveR 6, and two were conducted by Soo Yeoul Choi, who leads the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.Both conductors worked together on the final piece.EveR 6 is a robot built by the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology.It's about as tall as a person, and has a human like face that can show emotions.It has joints in its neck, shoulders, elbows, and wrists.As a result, it can move its arms quickly and smoothly in many different directions.But EveR 6 doesn't think on its own like some advanced Artificial Intelligence programs.Instead, it has a limited group of movements that it has been trained to perform.To make these movements as natural as possible, EveR 6's movements are based on motions of real human conductors.When EveR 6 swung its baton for the first time, a gong rang out.Every movement of the robot's arms brought more instruments into the mix, and the orchestra's music grew louder and more exciting.Mr Choi was impressed with the way EveR 6 moved.“The robot was able to present such detailed moves much better than I had imagined,”he said.But the robot still is not nearly ready to replace a human conductor.Mr Choi says the robot's greatest weakness is that it can't hear.“Some people think that conducting is just a combination of hand waving and keeping the beat,”says Mr Choi.But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra, so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays.Mr Choi said that once EveR 6 started,“the musicians had no choice but to follow its beats.” He said this created a situation where “the performers have to communicate and ‘sense’ each other to follow the correct beats.”Mr Choi doesn't think robots are likely to replace human conductors.But he believes robots could be helpful in situations like practice sessions where the same thing needs to be repeated many times.1.What is the main disadvantage of EveR 6 A.It cannot keep the beat steady.B.Its movements are not so natural.C.It cannot show emotions like humans.D.It lacks the ability of thinking independently.2.What did Mr Choi mean by saying that“the musicians had no choice but to follow its beats”?A.The robot is programmed with correct beats.B.The musicians are not allowed to communicate.C.The robot is trained to be strict with the performers.D.The robot cannot interact with the musicians.3.What is Mr Choi's attitude toward EveR 6 A.Negative. B.Objective.C.Subjective. D.Indifferent.4.Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage A.Robot EveR 6 conducts an orchestraB.A competition between human and robotC.The power of AI robot technologyD.Revive orchestral performances in KoreaB(2025·郴州模擬)Imagine living in a cool, green city alive with parks and threaded with footpaths, bike lanes and buses which transport people to shops, schools and service centers in a matter of minutes.This fancy dream is behind the idea of the 15 minute city, where all basic needs and services are within a quarter of an hour's reach, improving public health and lowering vehicle emissions.Artificial intelligence could help urban planners realize that vision faster, with a new study from researchers at Tsinghua University in China demonstrating how machine learning can generate more efficient spatial layouts (空間布局) than humans can.Automation scientist Zheng Yu and his colleagues wanted to find new solutions to improve our cities which are fast becoming blocked.They developed an AI system to tackle the tough tasks of urban planning and found it can produce urban plans that outperform human designs by about 50 percent in three aspects: access to services, green spaces and traffic levels.Starting small, Zheng's team tasked their model with designing the urban area only a few square kilometers in size (about 3×3 blocks).After two days of training, the AI system searched for the ideal road designs and land use to fit with the concept of the 15 minute city and local planning policies and needs.While the AI model has some capabilities that could extend its use for planning larger urban areas, designing entire cities will be more complex.Drafting a neighborhood consisting of 4×4 blocks contains twice as many planning decisions as designing 3×3 blocks, the researchers said.But automating even a few steps in the planning process can save huge amounts of time: the AI model can compute in seconds certain tasks that take human planners between 50 to 100 minutes to work through.Rather than AI replacing people, Zheng and his colleagues think their AI system can work as an“assistant” to urban planners, who could generate concept designs optimized (優(yōu)化) by the system, and reviewed, adjusted and evaluated by human experts based on community feedback.5.According to the text, which of the following is NOT a benefit of the “15 minute city” concept A.Better public health.B.Lower vehicle emissions.C.Decreased access to green spaces.D.Fast and convenient service.6.Which major issue in cities did Zheng Yu and his team want to address A.High levels of pollution.B.Limited access to public services.C.Shortage of affordable housing.D.Rising crowding and traffic problems.7.What can be concluded from the text about the AI model's capabilities A.It can design entire cities efficiently.B.It takes longer to train for larger urban areas.C.It can complete tasks much faster than human planners.D.It is limited to planning only a few square kilometers at a time.8.What's the best title for this passage A.Designing Better Cities with AIB.The 15 Minute City: A Dream or Reality C.Improving Public Health with Greener

did not suffer from a lack of companions.Why has loneliness become such a threat How might it be addressed In the distant past, there were few complaints about loneliness.Indeed, every person in a community including children was up to speed on every detail of the lives of everyone else.Instead of suffering from loneliness, our distant ancestors were oppressed (被壓迫) by a lack of privacy.__9__ They facilitate distance.How did loneliness take over contemporary life Typically, people move away from family and friends for work opportunities.Yet, cities often function as gatherings of relative strangers rather than functional communities.The many people wandering around in a city are irrelevant if we have no social connection with them.Migrants to cities may establish various meaningful social links.__10__ These might be the people we work among, those who frequent a coffee shop, or members of a gym or sports club.Such associations are not made automatically.__11__ In some cases, those who eagerly need social connection can fare poorly in cities.__12__ According to the US Surgeon General's Report on Loneliness, people who spend more time online are lonelier.People who claim thousands of online “friends” are often chronically anxious, disconnected and depressed.Perhaps, they would gain better social bonus by being kind to people in real life.Virtually, not everyone needs constant companionship.This is not merely a question of how extroverted a person is.__13__ People with a strong sense of external purpose barely suffer from loneliness, whether they perfect their dance moves, get involved in political activism or train service dogs.In this vein, anyone who cultivates a love of nature may become a part of the natural world.That is an endless source of peace, happiness, and connection.A.Their habits contributed to loneliness.B.They require openness, initiative and effort.C.Rather, it reflects how someone leads their life.D.Outgoing people will live a busy life with social media.E.Today, social media bring back the invasions of privacy.F.Many turn to social media for companionship with mixed results.G.However, associations are often formed through accidental networks.課時作業(yè)(一) Ⅰ.閱讀理解[A]語篇解讀:本文是一篇新聞報道。文章講述了機器人指揮管弦樂隊的情況。1.選D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一句可知,它的主要缺點是無法獨立思考。2.選D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中Choi說的話可知,音樂家們“別無選擇,只能跟著節(jié)拍走”,是因為機器人不能和樂隊互動交流。3.選B
