  Ricky lived in a lovely, futuristic house, which had everything you could ever want. Though he didn’t help much around the house, Ricky was still very pleased when his parents bought him the latest model of robot. As soon as it arrived, off it went, cooking, cleaning, ironing, and — most importantly — gathering up clothes from Ricky’s bedroom floor. On that first day, when Ricky went to sleep, he had left his bedroom in a truly disastrous state. When he woke up the next morning, everything was perfectly clean and tidy.
  In fact, it was actually “too” clean; now Ricky couldn’t find his favorite T-shirt, nor his favorite toy. However much he searched, the two things did not reappear. The same was starting to happen with other things. Ricky began to suspect the robot. He planned to spy on the robot, and began following it around the house. Finally he caught it on the spot, picking up one of Ricky’s toys to hide it.
  Ricky told his parents that the robot was broken and badly programmed and asked them to have it changed. But his parents told him absolutely not; they were delighted with the new robot, and it cooked like a dreams.
  One day, the robot was whirring past, and heard the boy’s complaints. The robot returned with one of the boy’s toys, and some clothes for him.
  “Here, sir. I did not know it was bothering you,” said the robot.
  “How could it not, you thief! You’ve been stealing my belongings for weeks!” the boy answered angrily.
  “The objects were left on the floor. I therefore calculated that you did not like them. I am programmed to collect all that is not wanted, and at night I send it to people who can use it. I am a maximum efficiency machine. Were you unaware?” the robot said, with a certain pride.
  Ricky started feeling ashamed. He understood that the robot was neither broken nor misprogrammed. Rather, it had been programmed extremely well!
  Since then, Ricky has decided to become a “Maximum Efficiency Boy”, and put real care into how he treated his things. He kept them tidy, and made sure he didn’t have more than what was necessary. And, often, he would buy things, and take them along with his good friend, the robot, to help out those other people who needed them.
24.What is the robot meant to do?
A.Do the housework. B.Take care of children.
C.Provide security services. D.Recycle used objects.
25.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.The robot dreamed of being a cook. B.The robot was good at cooking.
C.The robot could serve as a cooker. D.The robot found it unrealistic to cook.
26.Why did Ricky get mad at the robot?
A.He mistook it as a thief. B.He disliked the way it cleaned his room.
C.He thought it was making too much noise. D.He felt less loved by his parents since its arrival.
27.Where does the text probably come from?
A.A science report. B.A science fiction story.
C.An entertainment magazine. D.A commercial advertisement.

  Blind people have long desired for brightness, but scientists don’t have the technology. To bring that one step closer to reality, Zhiyong Fan, a materials scientist of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, developed a new artificial eye recently. The device, which is about as sensitive to light and has sharper vision and a faster reaction time than a real eyeball, may outperform human eyes.
  The human eye owes its wide field of view and clear eyesight to the retina (視網(wǎng)膜) — an area at the back of the eyeball covered in light-detecting cells. The design for a new artificial eye is based on the structure of the human eye and uses a friendly light-sensitive material. At the back of the eyeball, an artificial retina is lined with Nan scale light sensors (納米級光感器). Those sensors measure light that passes through the lens (晶狀體) at the front of the eye. Wires attached to the back of the retina send signals from those sensors to the processor, similar to the way nerve networks connect the eyeball to the brain.
  “In the future, we can use this to replace damaged human eyes,” says the lead designer. In theory, this artificial eye could see more clearly than the human eye, because the artificial retina contains about 460 million light sensors per square centimeter while a real retina has about 10 million light-detecting cells per square centimeter. Besides, the artificial eyeball records changes in lighting faster than human eyes can — within about 30 to 40 milliseconds, rather than 40 to 150 milliseconds. Although its 100-degree field of view isn’t as broad as the 150 degrees a human eye can take in, the device can see as well as the human eye in poor light.
  Hongrui Jiang, an electrical engineer at the University of Wisconsin, though, thinks engineers need a much more practical and efficient way to produce vast series of tiny wires on the back of the artificial eyeball to give it superhuman sight, which is super hard to achieve.
28.Why does Zhiyong Fan develop the artificial eye?
A.To replace people’s real eyeballs. B.To gain a sharper vision.
C.To help the blind regain their eyesight. D.To help normal eyes perform better.
29.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.The design of the artificial eye. B.The structure of the human eye.
C.The advantages of the artificial eye. D.The material used for the artificial eye.
30.What can we learn about the artificial eye and the human eye?
A.They have the same structure. B.The artificial eye may see more clearly.
C.The human eye sees better in weak light. D.The artificial eye takes in a broader view.
31.Which word best describes Hongrui Jiang’s attitude to the artificial eye?
A.Doubtful. B.Favorable.
C.Tolerant. D.Ambiguous.

  Hands-on exhibits are an important part of science and children’s museums around the world, and kids love them. But do kids actually learn from them? Ideally, museum staff, parents or caregivers are on hand to guide the children through the exhibits and help learning, but that is not always possible.
  Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) have shown a more effective way to support learning and increase engagement. They used AI to create a new kind of interactive (互動的), hands-on exhibit that includes an intelligent, virtual assistant (虛擬助手) to interact with visitors.
  When the researchers compared their intelligent exhibit to a traditional one, they found that the intelligent exhibit increased learning and the time spent at the exhibit. “Having AI and computer vision turned the play into learning,” said Nesra Yannier, head of the project, who called the results “purposeful play”.
  Earthquake tables are popular exhibits. In a typical example, kids build towers and then watch them fall on a shaking table. Signs around the exhibit try to engage kids in thinking about science as they play, but it is not clear how well they work or how often they are even read.
  Yannier led a team of researchers that built an AI-enhanced earthquake table equipped with a camera, touch screen, large display and an intelligent assistant, NoRilla, which replaced the signs. NoRilla, a virtual gorilla (大猩猩), interacts with kids, taking them through different challenges and asking questions about why towers did or didn’t fall along the way and helping them make scientific discoveries.
  The team tested their intelligent earthquake exhibit at the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh. Elementary-school-aged children interacted with either the intelligent or the traditional exhibit and completed pre- and post-tests as well as surveys.
  The result revealed that children learned significantly more from the AI-enhanced intelligent science exhibit compared to the traditional exhibit while having just as much fun. A surprising result was that even though children were doing more building in the traditional exhibit, their building skills did not improve at all, as they mostly engaged in random tweaking (隨機輕微調整) rather than understanding the concepts behind. The AI-enhanced exhibit not only helped children understand the scientific concepts better, but also helped them improve their building and engineering skills.
32.What is one advantage of the intelligent exhibit compared with a traditional one?
A.It is smarter in schedule planning. B.It is more effective in time management.
C.It helps kids learn while they are playing. D.It inspires kids to explore science independently.
33.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Tables. B.Signs.
C.Towers. D.Results.
34.Why was NoRilla used to replace signs?
A.To purposefully guide kids’ learning. B.To make the table stand still.
C.To teach kids to deal with difficulties. D.To ensure kids’ safety.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.AI-enhanced Exhibits Are the Latest Fashion
B.AI-enhanced Exhibits Inspire Kids’ Love of Animals
C.Adding AI to Museum Exhibits Helps Relieve the Workload
D.Adding AI to Museum Exhibits Helps Kids Learn Through Playing

  India’s touring (流動的) cinemas are dying, and being reborn. And India is perhaps the most film-mad country in the world while it also has the lowest ratios of screens to human beings.  36  The screens that do exist are unevenly distributed. PVR, India’s biggest cinema operator, has more screens in Chandigarh, a prosperous city of about a million people, than it does in Rajasthan, a poor stale of 80 million.  37  If Muhammad could not go to the movies, the movies had to come to Muhammad. Twenty years ago, there were 1,400 odd touring cinemas in Pusegaon. However, today there are only 52 travelling cinemas.
   38  One is smartphone and Internet expansion, which leads to the other reason for the collapse of the touring cinemas:  39  Sushil Chaudhary, the founder of a new chain of touring cinemas called Picture Time, is making a different bet on the possibilities of cinema. Mr Chaudhary started his company in 2015 and since then he has set up 37 moving screens seating between 100 and 250 people. The touring cinema was nothing like the one in Pusegaon.  40  The picture was crystal clear and the sound used Dolby. Picture Time’s tickets are cheap, at between 30 and 70 rupees, compared with an average ticket price of 191 rupees at PVR’s cinemas.
A.They failed to change over time.
B.Fewer people can afford to go to cinemas.
C.The floor was carpeted and there were plastic chairs.
D.The following are the reasons leading to this phenomenon.
E.It was in this world that the touring cinemas played a crucial role.
F.The collapse of the touring cinemas was for two interlinked reasons.
G.It is one more paradox among the millions of contradictions there.

  Dad and Madison were walking through the party store, gathering decorations for Madison’s upcoming birthday party.
  “But I don’t want to invite Lucy Gilbert! I don’t like her!”
  “Madison, you are being unreasonable. If every girl in your class is invited to party but you, you’ll feel left out. It would be a big mistake not to invite Lucy to the party.”
  “She never even talks to me!”
  Dad sighed and moved down the aisle. “Lucy is a new girl in class. She just moved here a little over a month ago. Think about how that must feel. She doesn’t know one single person in the school. She left all of her to get to know everyone.”
  “No, it won’t. She will probably sit in the corner and not talk to anyone. Every day at lunch she sits all by herself. She wants to eat alone!” Madison shrugged and rolled her eyes.
  “Madison, I’m done discussing this. You will invite every girl in your class, including Lucy Gilbert!”
  On Saturday morning, the family blew up balloons and decorated the house cheerfully. Madison was dressed beautifully for the day, wearing her new blue dress. It was not typical of her to dress herself like this. She usually wore sports clothes because she loved to be outside riding her horse Star with a lead rope.
  Madison greeted her friends at the doorstep, picturing various presents her friends would bring her. In the meanwhile, she was wondering whether Lucy would ruin the party if she came. Anyhow, all the girls she invited came finally, including Lucy.
  The girls had a fantastic time by singing and dancing while Lucy sat in the corner silently alone. Later, all the girls gathered around the table as Madison opened her presents. Opening them one by one, Madison thanked her friends, with a bright smile on her face.
注意:1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右; 2.請按如下格式作答。
  Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened.                      
                                            
                                            
Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope tightly in her hands.

(Text 3)
M:I met Sam on the street today.
W:Really? Did he say something about his sister?
M:Yes. Betty ought to be leaving New York very soon, because her husband, John, has taken a job in Los Angeles.

M:Drivers get crazier these days.
(Text 6)
W:What are you looking at, Jim?
M:I’m reading an article about the world’s homeless population.
W:Homeless population?
M:Yes, sociologists define homeless people as those who have no fixed shelter on any given night. These figures show five countries with large homeless population.
W:Wow, that’s amazing. I never realized that there were so many homeless people in Germany and France.
M:You know what? Our own country the USA ranks number one among these countries!
W:Surely not! India tops the list with three million homeless people.
M:Well, it depends on how you look at it. Although we have a million fewer homeless people than India, we have the highest percentage of homeless people.

W:People are not so honest as they once were.
M:Why do you say so?
W:Some people are tempted to steal in large shops.
M:Did you catch one of them?
W:Yes, on Monday morning. There were few people in the shop, so I could catch the thief easily.
M:Was it a man or a woman?
W:A middle-aged woman. She first bought some small articles. Then she chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop.
M:Did she catch the dress away quickly regardless of the assistants?
W:Certainly not. An assistant wrapped it up for her and helped her walk out of the shop without paying.
M:An assistant? How could she do that?
W:She is the daughter of the woman. The girl “gave” her mother a free dress once a week!
(Text 9)
W:Good morning, Sir. What can I do for you?
M:I would like to rent a car with a good air conditioner.
W:All our cars have air conditioners in them.

M:This is a Porsche!
W:Yes. Beautiful, isn’t it?
M:Yes, it looks fantastic.
W:So you will take the Porsche then, Sir?
M:Yes, for three days. And I want to buy the insurance too. I think it’s necessary.

Malls are popular places for Americans to go. Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called “mall rats”. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.
  People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have police stations or private security guards. Parking is usually free, and the atmosphere inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest areas with waterfalls and large green trees.
The largest mall in the United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota. It has 350 stores, eight night clubs, and a seven-acre park! There are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About 750,000 people shop every week.
The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Edina, Minnesota. Now people shop in malls, of course. They also eat in food houses that have food from all over the world. They see movies here. Some people even get their daily exercise by doing the new sport of mall walking. Others go to malls to meet friends. In a word, now residents can actually live in their favorite shopping center.
第二部分
語篇解讀:本文是一篇應用文。文章主要介紹了幾個將舊建筑重新利用,轉化為新用途的案例,展示了這種再利用的方式所帶來的驚人美感。
21.A 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Craft False Creek, VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA部分中的In the 1930s, the Vancouver Salt Company’s processing plant was housed here.可知,Craft False Creek曾經(jīng)是溫哥華鹽業(yè)公司的加工廠。
22.B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Liberty Hotel, BOSTON部分中的The building’s fresh purpose was designed ...to ensure its past life was never forgotten.可知,Liberty Hotel被重新設計以確保人們不會忘記其過去的生活。
23.D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)El Ateneo Grand Splendid, BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA和Dominicanen, MAASTRICHT, NETHERLANDS兩部分的最后一句可知,這兩個建筑物在21世紀初都成為書店。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇記敘文。瑞奇家買的新型機器人每天都把家里收拾得非常干凈整潔,以至于瑞奇經(jīng)常找不到他的物品。他認為是機器人偷了他的物品,后來機器人向瑞奇解釋了事情的原委,誤會得以化解。
24.A 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的As soon as it arrived, off it went, cooking, cleaning, ironing, and — most importantly — gathering up clothes from Ricky’s bedroom floor.可知,這個機器人的功能是做家務。
25.B 句意理解題。根據(jù)畫線句上文可知,當瑞奇向父母抱怨這個機器人,并要求換掉它的時候,父母拒絕了他的請求,他們很喜歡這個機器人。由此可推測,機器人的烹飪水平很高,深得瑞奇父母的喜歡。故畫線句意為“機器人擅長烹飪”。
26.A 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第四段內容可知,瑞奇生機器人的氣是因為他誤以為它是小偷。
27.B 文章出處題。通讀全文可知,文章講述了一個發(fā)生在機器人和小男孩之間的故事。這個機器人勤勞能干,還能與人交流。由此推測,本文選自一本科幻小說。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了香港科技大學的一位科學家開發(fā)人工眼幫助盲人重獲光明。
28.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段前兩句可知,發(fā)明人工眼的目的是幫助盲人重獲光明。
29.A 段落大意題。根據(jù)第二段內容可知,第二段主要講人工眼的結構設計。
30.B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的In theory, this artificial eye could see more clearly than the human eye可知,理論上人工眼可能比真正的眼睛看得更清楚。
31.A 觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段中的which is super hard to achieve可知,他認為科學家們的設想很難達成,持懷疑的態(tài)度。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇新聞報道。人工智能技術在博物館中的應用讓孩子們“邊玩邊學”。
32.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的Having AI and computer vision turned the play into learning可知,與傳統(tǒng)展覽相比,智能展覽幫助孩子們在玩耍的時候學習知識。
33.B 代詞指代題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知,展覽中的標牌是為了讓孩子們在玩的同時思考背后的科學,然而它們究竟起多大作用或者孩子們是否去看這些標牌,就不得而知了。they在這里指signs。
34.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四、五段內容可知,孩子們可能不會仔細閱讀展覽中的標牌,這些標牌很有可能起不到實際作用。而智能助手NoRilla會與孩子們進行互動,幫助他們解決困難以及進行提問,從而幫助孩子們學習科學知識。由此可知,用智能助手NoRilla取代標牌的目的是有目的地引導孩子們學習。
35.D 標題歸納題。通讀全文可知,本文講的是將人工智能技術應用于博物館展覽可幫助孩子們在玩耍的時候學習科學知識。因此D項為文章最佳標題。
語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了印度“巡回影院”的近況。
36.G 上文指出在最喜歡看電影的國家,大屏幕與人均的比率卻最低,這是一種現(xiàn)實的矛盾。G項(這是那里無數(shù)矛盾中的又一個矛盾)承接上文,說明這是又一個矛盾。
37.E 空后一句借用穆罕默德一句名言“山不過來,我過去”,說明巡回影院的興起和昌盛。E項(正是在這樣的世界中,巡回影院發(fā)揮了至關重要的作用)承接上文,說明巡回影院發(fā)揮的作用。

39.A 根據(jù)上文which leads to the other reason for the collapse of the touring cinemas可知,此處為流動影院衰落的另一個原因。A項(它們沒有隨著時間的推移而改變)符合語境。
40.C 根據(jù)空前一句和空后一句可知,這個巡回影院和Pusegaon的電影院不同,畫質和音效都非常好。C項(地板上鋪了地毯,還有塑料椅子)承上啟下,介紹這家巡回影院的更優(yōu)越的基礎設施。

51.C 參見上題解析。
52.D 根據(jù)下文的I do now.Learning how to use your time wisely also means ...可知,十歲的時候,“我”并不理解“合理利用時間”的真正含義。

第二節(jié)
  Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened. Worrying that it would ruin the party, Madison grabbed the present reluctantly and ripped open the gift-wrap paper. Inside was a delicately hand-made lead rope! Shocked, she widened her eyes, covering her hands over her mouth. “It’s a lead rope for your horse Star. I made it by myself!” Madison pulled it out of the box and placed it on her lap, amazed at its beauty. Lucy added,“I heard you talking about your horse at school. That’s when I got the idea to make you a lead rope.”
Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope tightly in her hands. It was, by far, her very favorite birthday present of the day. She suddenly felt so bad because she had been so mean to Lucy. With tears swirling in her eyes, she blinked hard to fight them back, feeling a mixture of regret and gratitude. “Thanks so much for this lead rope. I love it! Would you like to join us and be our friends?” Lucy nodded cheerfully. Madison put her arm around Lucy’s shoulders, both smiling. With applause and laughter echoing through the house, Lucy joined the other girls to enjoy the party.

M:I’ll have the steak, French fries and chocolate ice cream for
dessert.
W:Oh, no, you know these things are bad for your health. How about
ordering some vegetables and fruits instead?
(Text 2)
W:I hate to say it, but Jacky isn’t doing well in the new film.
M:Well, I think he’s only playing a different type of role. My sister
thinks he is still the best.
(Text 3)
M:I met Sam on the street today.
W:Really? Did he say something about his sister?
M:Yes. Betty ought to be leaving New York very soon, because her
husband, John, has taken a job in Los Angeles.
(Text 4)
M:A power cut. Oh, I have to hand in this report tomorrow.
W:Just take out your cell phone to get the candle in the drawer.

bicycle.
M:Drivers get crazier these days.

W:What are you looking at, Jim?
M:I’m reading an article about the world’s homeless population.
W:Homeless population?
M:Yes, sociologists define homeless people as those who have no fixed
shelter on any given night. These figures show five countries with large
homeless population.
W:Wow, that’s amazing. I never realized that there were so many
homeless people in Germany and France.
M:You know what? Our own country the USA ranks number one
among these countries!
W:Surely not! India tops the list with three million homeless people.

fewer homeless people than India, we have the highest percentage of
homeless people.

M:Did you catch one of them?
W:Yes, on Monday morning. There were few people in the shop, so I
could catch the thief easily.
M:Was it a man or a woman?
W:A middle-aged woman. She first bought some small articles. Then
she chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop.
M:Did she catch the dress away quickly regardless of the assistants?
W:Certainly not. An assistant wrapped it up for her and helped her walk
out of the shop without paying.
M:An assistant? How could she do that?
W:She is the daughter of the woman. The girl “gave” her mother a
free dress once a week!

like it.

  Instead of tearing down and building anew, architects have
repurposed some older structures, leading to stunning beauty.
·Craft False Creek, VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA
  Among the growing scenes of skyscrapers in Vancouver, this
building stands out for both its history and architecture.In the 1930s, the
Vancouver Salt Company’s processing plant was housed here.Today,
the building is home to Craft Beer Market, which has kept many of the
architectural elements of the original structure in place.
·El Ateneo Grand Splendid, BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA
  This beautiful bookshop has the distinction of starting its life as a
theater.Teatro Gran Splendid opened its door in May 1919 and hosted a
long list of performances before being turned into a cinema.The location
was purchased and rebuilt as a bookstore in the early 2000s.
·Liberty Hotel, BOSTON
  Located just steps from the Boston Common, the Liberty Hotel now
lies at the former Charles Street Jail.Its 298 rooms and suites were inspired
by the location, which last housed prisoners in 1990.The building’s
fresh purpose was designed in cooperation with teams of preservationists
and historians to ensure its past life was never forgotten.
·Dominicanen, MAASTRICHT, NETHERLANDS
  Situated within a church that dates back to 1294, the former
Dominicanen has a long history.It served as a Catholic church for
hundreds of years before being changed to storage space for Napoleon
Bonaparte’s army.In 2006 it was converted into a bookstore,
maintaining much of its traditional artwork and architecture.

B
  Ricky lived in a lovely, futuristic house, which had everything you
could ever want. Though he didn’t help much around the house, Ricky
was still very pleased when his parents bought him the latest model of
robot. As soon as it arrived, off it went, cooking, cleaning,
ironing, and — most importantly — gathering up clothes from Ricky’s
bedroom floor. On that first day, when Ricky went to sleep, he had left
his bedroom in a truly disastrous state. When he woke up the next
morning, everything was perfectly clean and tidy.
  In fact, it was actually “too” clean; now Ricky couldn’t find
his favorite T-shirt, nor his favorite toy. However much he searched,
the two things did not reappear. The same was starting to happen with
other things. Ricky began to suspect the robot. He planned to spy on the
robot, and began following it around the house. Finally he caught it on
the spot, picking up one of Ricky’s toys to hide it.
  Ricky told his parents that the robot was broken and badly
programmed and asked them to have it changed. But his parents told him
absolutely not; they were delighted with the new robot, and it cooked
like a dreams.
  One day, the robot was whirring past, and heard the boy’s
complaints. The robot returned with one of the boy’s toys, and some
clothes for him.
  “Here, sir. I did not know it was bothering you,” said the
robot.
  “How could it not, you thief! You’ve been stealing my
belongings for weeks!” the boy answered angrily.
  “The objects were left on the floor. I therefore calculated that you
did not like them. I am programmed to collect all that is not wanted, and
at night I send it to people who can use it. I am a maximum efficiency
machine. Were you unaware?” the robot said, with a certain pride.
  Ricky started feeling ashamed. He understood that the robot was
neither broken nor misprogrammed. Rather, it had been programmed
extremely well!
  Since then, Ricky has decided to become a “Maximum Efficiency
Boy”, and put real care into how he treated his things. He kept them
tidy, and made sure he didn’t have more than what was necessary.
And, often, he would buy things, and take them along with his good
friend, the robot, to help out those other people who needed them.

  Blind people have long desired for brightness, but scientists don’t
have the technology. To bring that one step closer to reality, Zhiyong
Fan, a materials scientist of the Hong Kong University of Science and
Technology, developed a new artificial eye recently. The device,
which is about as sensitive to light and has sharper vision and a faster
reaction time than a real eyeball, may outperform human eyes.
  The human eye owes its wide field of view and clear eyesight to the
retina (視網(wǎng)膜) — an area at the back of the eyeball covered in light-
detecting cells. The design for a new artificial eye is based on the structure
of the human eye and uses a friendly light-sensitive material. At the back
of the eyeball, an artificial retina is lined with Nan scale light sensors
(納米級光感器). Those sensors measure light that passes through the
lens (晶狀體) at the front of the eye. Wires attached to the back of the
retina send signals from those sensors to the processor, similar to the way
nerve networks connect the eyeball to the brain.
  “In the future, we can use this to replace damaged human
eyes,” says the lead designer. In theory, this artificial eye could see
more clearly than the human eye, because the artificial retina contains
about 460 million light sensors per square centimeter while a real retina
has about 10 million light-detecting cells per square centimeter. Besides,
the artificial eyeball records changes in lighting faster than human eyes
can — within about 30 to 40 milliseconds, rather than 40 to 150
milliseconds. Although its 100-degree field of view isn’t as broad as the
150 degrees a human eye can take in, the device can see as well as the
human eye in poor light.
  Hongrui Jiang, an electrical engineer at the University of
Wisconsin, though, thinks engineers need a much more practical and
efficient way to produce vast series of tiny wires on the back of the
artificial eyeball to give it superhuman sight, which is super hard to
achieve.

  Hands-on exhibits are an important part of science and children’s
museums around the world, and kids love them. But do kids actually
learn from them? Ideally, museum staff, parents or caregivers are on
hand to guide the children through the exhibits and help learning, but that
is not always possible.
  Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University’s Human-Computer
Interaction Institute (HCII) have shown a more effective way to support
learning and increase engagement. They used AI to create a new kind of
interactive (互動的), hands-on exhibit that includes an intelligent,
virtual assistant (虛擬助手) to interact with visitors.
  When the researchers compared their intelligent exhibit to a
traditional one, they found that the intelligent exhibit increased learning
and the time spent at the exhibit. “Having AI and computer vision turned
the play into learning,” said Nesra Yannier, head of the project, who
called the results “purposeful play”.
  Earthquake tables are popular exhibits. In a typical example, kids
build towers and then watch them fall on a shaking table. Signs around the
exhibit try to engage kids in thinking about science as they play, but it is
not clear how well they work or how often they are even read.
  Yannier led a team of researchers that built an AI-enhanced
earthquake table equipped with a camera, touch screen, large display
and an intelligent assistant, NoRilla, which replaced the signs.
NoRilla, a virtual gorilla (大猩猩), interacts with kids, taking
them through different challenges and asking questions about why towers
did or didn’t fall along the way and helping them make scientific
discoveries.
  The team tested their intelligent earthquake exhibit at the Carnegie
Science Center in Pittsburgh. Elementary-school-aged children interacted
with either the intelligent or the traditional exhibit and completed pre- and
post-tests as well as surveys.
  The result revealed that children learned significantly more from the
AI-enhanced intelligent science exhibit compared to the traditional exhibit
while having just as much fun. A surprising result was that even though
children were doing more building in the traditional exhibit, their
building skills did not improve at all, as they mostly engaged in random
tweaking (隨機輕微調整) rather than understanding the concepts
behind. The AI-enhanced exhibit not only helped children understand the
scientific concepts better, but also helped them improve their building
and engineering skills.

33. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Tables. B. Signs.
C. Towers. D. Results.
解析: 代詞指代題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知,展覽中的標
牌是為了讓孩子們在玩的同時思考背后的科學,然而它們究竟起
多大作用或者孩子們是否去看這些標牌,就不得而知了。they在
這里指signs。
34. Why was NoRilla used to replace signs?
A. To purposefully guide kids’ learning.
B. To make the table stand still.
C. To teach kids to deal with difficulties.
D. To ensure kids’ safety.

不會仔細閱讀展覽中的標牌,這些標牌很有可能起不到實際作
用。而智能助手NoRilla會與孩子們進行互動,幫助他們解決困難
以及進行提問,從而幫助孩子們學習科學知識。由此可知,用智
能助手NoRilla取代標牌的目的是有目的地引導孩子們學習。
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. AI-enhanced Exhibits Are the Latest Fashion
B. AI-enhanced Exhibits Inspire Kids’ Love of Animals
C. Adding AI to Museum Exhibits Helps Relieve the Workload
D. Adding AI to Museum Exhibits Helps Kids Learn Through Playing

  India’s touring (流動的) cinemas are dying, and being reborn.
And India is perhaps the most film-mad country in the world while it also
has the lowest ratios of screens to human beings.  36  The screens that
do exist are unevenly distributed. PVR, India’s biggest cinema operator, has more screens in Chandigarh, a prosperous city of about a million people, than it does in Rajasthan, a poor stale of 80 million.  37  If Muhammad could not go to the movies, the movies had to come to Muhammad. Twenty years ago, there were 1,400 odd touring cinemas in Pusegaon. However, today there are only 52 travelling cinemas.
    38  One is smartphone and Internet expansion, which leads to
the other reason for the collapse of the touring cinemas:  39  Sushil
Chaudhary, the founder of a new chain of touring cinemas called Picture
Time, is making a different bet on the possibilities of cinema. Mr
Chaudhary started his company in 2015 and since then he has set up 37
moving screens seating between 100 and 250 people. The touring cinema
was nothing like the one in Pusegaon.  40  The picture was crystal
clear and the sound used Dolby. Picture Time’s tickets are cheap, at
between 30 and 70 rupees, compared with an average ticket price of 191
rupees at PVR’s cinemas.
A. They failed to change over time.
B. Fewer people can afford to go to cinemas.
C. The floor was carpeted and there were plastic chairs.
D. The following are the reasons leading to this phenomenon.
E. It was in this world that the touring cinemas played a crucial role.
F. The collapse of the touring cinemas was for two interlinked reasons.
G. It is one more paradox among the millions of contradictions there.

明巡回影院的興起和昌盛。E項(正是在這樣的世界中,巡回影院發(fā)
揮了至關重要的作用)承接上文,說明巡回影院發(fā)揮的作用。
38. F 空后一句介紹了巡回影院衰落有兩個原因。F項(巡回電影院
的衰落有兩個相互關聯(lián)的原因)總領下文。
39. A 根據(jù)上文which leads to the other reason for the collapse of the
touring cinemas可知,此處為流動影院衰落的另一個原因。A項(它們
沒有隨著時間的推移而改變)符合語境。
40. C 根據(jù)空前一句和空后一句可知,這個巡回影院和Pusegaon的電

第二節(jié)(滿分25分)
  閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構
成一篇完整的短文。
  Dad and Madison were walking through the party store, gathering
decorations for Madison’s upcoming birthday party.
  “But I don’t want to invite Lucy Gilbert! I don’t like her!”
  “Madison, you are being unreasonable. If every girl in your class
is invited to party but you, you’ll feel left out. It would be a big
mistake not to invite Lucy to the party.”
  “She never even talks to me!”
  Dad sighed and moved down the aisle. “Lucy is a new girl in class.
She just moved here a little over a month ago. Think about how that must
feel. She doesn’t know one single person in the school. She left all of
her to get to know everyone.”
  “No, it won’t. She will probably sit in the corner and not talk to
anyone. Every day at lunch she sits all by herself. She wants to eat
alone!” Madison shrugged and rolled her eyes.
  “Madison, I’m done discussing this. You will invite every girl in
your class, including Lucy Gilbert!”
  On Saturday morning, the family blew up balloons and decorated
the house cheerfully. Madison was dressed beautifully for the day,
wearing her new blue dress. It was not typical of her to dress herself like
this. She usually wore sports clothes because she loved to be outside riding
her horse Star with a lead rope.
  Madison greeted her friends at the doorstep, picturing various
presents her friends would bring her. In the meanwhile, she was
wondering whether Lucy would ruin the party if she came. Anyhow, all
the girls she invited came finally, including Lucy.
  The girls had a fantastic time by singing and dancing while Lucy sat
in the corner silently alone. Later, all the girls gathered around the table
as Madison opened her presents. Opening them one by one, Madison
thanked her friends, with a bright smile on her face.
注意:1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右;
2. 請按如下格式作答。
  Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened.
                                            
                                            
                                           
 
  Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope
tightly in her hands.                       
                                            
                                            
                      
                         
                          
                        
                         
                          
                        
                         
參考范文:
  Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened. Worrying that it
would ruin the party, Madison grabbed the present reluctantly and ripped
open the gift-wrap paper. Inside was a delicately hand-made lead rope!
Shocked, she widened her eyes, covering her hands over her mouth.
“It’s a lead rope for your horse Star. I made it by myself!” Madison
pulled it out of the box and placed it on her lap, amazed at its beauty.
Lucy added,“I heard you talking about your horse at school. That’s
when I got the idea to make you a lead rope.”
Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope tightly
in her hands. It was, by far, her very favorite birthday present of the
day. She suddenly felt so bad because she had been so mean to Lucy.
With tears swirling in her eyes, she blinked hard to fight them back,
feeling a mixture of regret and gratitude. “Thanks so much for this lead
rope. I love it! Would you like to join us and be our friends?” Lucy
nodded cheerfully. Madison put her arm around Lucy’s shoulders, both
smiling. With applause and laughter echoing through the house, Lucy
joined the other girls to enjoy the party.
謝謝觀看!
