"These are the words of Patrick Winston, a leading voice in thc fielcl of artificial intelligence. Although his idea is simple!its significance has been lost On most people thinking about ihe future ot work. Yet this is the feature of AI that ought to pr eoccupy us the most.From the 1950s to the 1980s, it was generally thought that the best way to build systems capable of performing tasks to the level of human experts or higher was to copy the way that experts worked, But there was a problem: human experts often struggled to explain how they performed many tasks. Chess playing was a good example. When asked to explain how they played chess well, some grandmasters appealed to"intuition"(直觉), others to"experience". Many said they did not really know at all. How could researchers build a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster if the best players themselves could not explain how they were so good?A turning point came in 1997. Deep Blue, IBM's supercomputer, beat Garry Kasparov, the then world chess champion, in a six-game match. What was the most remarkable was how the system did it. Deep Blue did not share Mr Kasparov's"intuition"or"experience". It won by meansof absolute processing power and massive data storage ability.Consider the legal world. Daniel Martin Katz, a law professor rhas designed a system to predict the voting behaviour of the US Supreme Court. It can perform as well as most specialists,but it does not mirror the judgement of a human being. Instead it draws on data that capture six decades of Court behaviour.We see similar developments in other parts of life. Surely, all these point to a future that is very different from the one most experts are preclicting. It is often said that there arc many tasksthat will always require human beings to perform because machines cannot"think", "reason"or "feel»like human beings.

2017天津一中高三年级四月考第一部分：英语知识运用第一节：单项填空1. B 考查情景会话。

根据后面的答语可知说话人很想参加这次竞赛。

2. B 这里是想形容Maria空洞的眼神，用blank。

3. C 对于后面的逻辑主语the "Harry Potter" movies, adapt这一动作应属于被动形式，所以用过去分词adapted。

4. A 短语draw inspiration吸取灵感。

5. D 先行词activities在后面的定语从句中作状语，所以用副词where。

6. D 短语work out意为"实现，完成"。

句意为"项目未能如期完成，简直是浪费时间"。

7. C 对应后面的动词joined, work这一动作发生在之前，所以用过去完成时。

8. B 动词不定式的被动式即to be completed 表示将来时的被动。

9. A that引导的句子作为concern的同位语。

10. B 由suggest引导的宾语从句用虚拟语气，即should+动词原形，而且should 可以省略。

第二空由would rather 引导的宾语从句的虚拟语气形式为动词以过去式表示对现在的虚拟。

11. A 此处shall用于第二人称，表示承诺，答应。

12. D 修饰后面的名字risks,加之根据句意，选择D。

2020届天津南开中学2017级高三第四次月考英语试卷★祝考试顺利★本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）、第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）,共 130 分,考试用时 100 分钟。

第Ⅰ卷第一部分：英语知识运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节：单项填空(共 15 小题；每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)从 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出适合空白处的最佳选项。

1.To learn English well, we should find opportunities to hear English _____ as much as we can.A. speakB. speakingC. spokenD. to speak【答案】C【详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：为了学好英语,我们应当找机会多听我们能够所讲的英语。

动词hear的宾语是English,宾语与speak之间构成被动关系,故使用过去分词spoken作宾语补足语。

故C正确。

2.I wonder if my complaint about the quality of your products ______ tomorrow.A. is handledB. will be handledC. handlesD. will handle【答案】B【详解】考查时态和语态。

句意：我想知道明天我对你们产品质量的投诉是否能处理。

分析句子可知,此处缺乏谓语动词,handle意为“处理、应付”,my complaint 和handle被动关系,应用被动语态（be done）； wonder后面接了一个由if引导的宾语从句,if意为“是否”,从句时间标志为tomorrow,要用一般将来时,所以是一般将来时的被动语态will be handled。

故选B项。

Researchers suppose several reasons why heavy rain storms bring earthworms out of their soil homes. For years scientists seemed to think the only reason earthworms came to the soil surface after a good rain was to prevent drowning in their water-filled holes in the ground.“This is not true as earthworms breathe through their skins and actually require wet in the soil to do so.”said Dr. Chris Lowe, Lecturer in Waste and Environmental Management. Earthworms are unable to drown like a human would, and they can even survive several days fully go under the surface of water.Soil experts now think earthworms surface during rain storms for migration purpose. “It gives them an opportunity to move greater distances across the soil surface than they could do through soil.”said Dr. Lowe. “They can’t do this when it is dry because of their wet requirements, but during unwatered conditions, life is certainly more difficult for a worm. “Earthworms dig deeper into the soil where it is wetter when conditions are dry,”said Professor Mary Ann Bruns.Another explanation involves rain drop vibrations(震动) on the soil surface sounding similar tovibration of animals who eat or kill earthworms, like those of (鼹鼠). earthworms often come to the surface to escape moles. “Rain can set up vibrations on top of the soil like mole vibrations.”said Professor Josef Gorres. “Similar to how earthworms move upwards and out of the way when predator vibrations are left, they could move in a similar way for rain vibrations.”Similarly, human create vibrations to bilk worms out of their holes in the ground; fisherman run a piece of steel or a hand saw (手锯) across the top of a stake, which causes a rubbing sound to occur as the stake vibrates. Earthworms are then moved to the surface, much to the fisherman’s delight.Earthworms use touch to communicate and interact. Research confirmed that social cues among earthworms influence behavior. Exactly why earthworms have come to form groups is still being investigated, but it is possible that worms gather to protect themselves. Protection from weather elements hasn’t been ruled out.41.Which might be the best title for the passage?A.How Do Earthworms Get Rid of Being Attacked?B.How Do Earthworms Communicate and Interact?C.Why Do Earthworms Surface After Rain?D.How Do Earthworms Surface After Rain?42.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Earthworms protect themselves by vibrations.B.Earthworms’ behavior is influenced by their living places.C.Earthworms surface after rain for survival.D.It’s not suitable for earthworms to breathe in dry soil.43.According to the passage, heavy rain can .A.destroy earthworms’ homeB.make earthworms move fartherC.inspire earthworms to keep foodD.make earthworms live deeper44.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.moles like to eat earthwormsB.earthworms get food through vibrations from each otherC.too wet environments can make earthworms dieD.mole vibrations are the same as earthworm vibrations45.The underlined word “bilk” can be replaced by .A.beatB.cheatC.preventD.pullC“It’s expensive to be poor.” I heard the last words of my interview with CNN’s Don Lemon as if someone else were speaking them. July 9, 2014 was my 32nd birthday. I was supposed to be out with friends, having found the rare babysitter for my twins. Instead, I was on national television.It wasn’t right; it wasn’t me. I was the mommy blogger who sometimes did funny things that attained a few thousand hits to my blog or Facebook page. Now I had television and literary agents calling me. People were thinking this thing was worth money.When my essay about driving to a food bank in my husband’s Mercedes went famous, people immediately started heralding ( 宣称)me as an “overnight success”. It was true in its way. The success itself was overnight. What people don’t realize is that the luck of going famous was based ona mountain of hard work, on years of effort. There’s a frustrating truth to success in the Internet age:In order for your work to reach an audience, someone with power has to give it a chance, and in order for someone with power to give it a chance, it has to have an audience.And before any of that can happen, you have to believe in yourself enough to keep going even when all you get in return is rejection. Just as I was about to give up: Boom! Suddenly, one piece out of thousands finally hit. But even with the Mercedes food bank essay, it wasn’t an easy sell. I’d written that piece months before and sent it to every place I could think of. Radio silence, The Washington Post itself rejected me.Eventually the Post sent it along to its new online section PostEverything. And it got noticed. Within hours of hitting the site, it became PostEverything’s top story. The Washington Post moved it to the main page, where it became the No. 1 story of the day, then of the month, then of the year. It now stands as The Post’s most read story in its history, according to my editor there.I just keep reminding myself that the way of the Internet success is: belief in yourself, someone in power giving you a chance, and audience participation. Now, a month after the original post, I have redoubled my writing efforts, using my 15-minute fame to get my essay seen by larger publications.46.What can we learn from the passage?N is the first media that found the author’s essay.B.The author who was born in 1982 must be good at writing.C.People think what the author writes is the thing that they want in their life.D.The author asked others to look after her twins to take part in a birthday party.47.What’s the basic element in getting success in the author’s opinion?A.A good quantity of great efforts.B.A great amount of good luck.C.Topics suitable for the public.D.Modern Internet technique.48.It can be inferred that the Mercedes food bank essay .A.was the author’s first essayB.was first recognized by RadioC.appeared on the Washington Post easilyD.also received many rejection49.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 5?A.Why the author’s essay got No.1 in The Washington Post history.B.How the author’s essay got No.1 in The Washington Post history.C.What edition the author’s essay appeared on The Washington Post.D.Where the author’s essay first appeared.50.What kind of person does the author belong to?A.A person with luck and courage.B.A person with good communication technique.C.A person with confidence and effort.D.A person with effort and wealth.DMost parents will tell you that traveling internationally with kids is no day at the beach.“For families with young children, spending a long period of time in an airport terminal can be a kind of pain. Partly because of all the waiting around but also because the airport is just a stop - usually the first stop - in a long journey,” said Suzanne Rowan Kelleher, a family travel expert and managing editor of .But a new beach-themed play area for children in the international terminal at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) gives kids a chance to have some fun and burn off some of their energy before they get on a flight.Opening on Thursday, in the new Tom Bradly International Terminal with a party featuring the LAX therapy dogs, some gift bags and cupcakes, the 971-square-foot, post-security play area is titled “LAX Beach.” Open to kids aged 2 to 8, the play space has soft, sculpted foam pieces that resemble waves, surfboards, beach toys and dolphins and is keeping in with the terminal’s overall architectural theme, which was inspired by the Pacific Ocean to the west of the airport.“I think it is safe to say that happy children make better flights,”said Los Angeles World Airports Executive Director Gina Maria Lindsey. “And with the opening of LAX Beach, we are going to see a lot more happy children on our international flights.”There are likely going to be a lot more happy adults seated around those children on international flights as well with LAX Beach appearing in the international terminal.The play space - the first children’s play area in any LAX terminal - was built for the Los Angeles World Airports by terminal management company Westfield for $350,000. in addition to the beach-themed foam pieces, there’s a slide, an interactive light table and lifesavers for children to crawl through.The nearby seating overlooking the space offers a place for parents to relax and keep an eye on their kids.“Having a kid-centric place where kids can work off a bit of energy can be a real lifesaver,”said Rowan Kelleher. “The beach theme attempts to offer a sense of place, too, which is nice.”51.What message does the writer try to get across to the readers?A.Most parents traveling with their children like to travel by air.B.It cost Westfield more than $350,000 to build the airport.C.The feeling for parents with kids who are waiting for a long time in an airport isterrible.D.Children who play in LAX Beach always sleep in the plane.52.What do you know about LAX Beach?A.It opens just on every Thursday.B.It’s designed with some oceanic features.C.You can see some doctors played by dogs.D.Adults are not allowed to get into it but parents.53.We can infer from the passage that LAX .A.will build more theme beachesB.is to the west of the Pacific OceanC.will open to people of the cityD.brings joy to children at the airport54.according to Rowan Kelleher, LAX Beach .A.is a landmark of Los AngelesB.is aimed for children’s safetyC.offers kids a place to rest wellD.offers parents a place to play with kids55.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Los Angeles airport will change its original style.B.Los Angeles airport gets beach-themed kids’ play area.C.Los Angeles airport will provide LAX Beach for kids for free.X Beach is the most popular place for kids in Los Angeles.天津一中2017-2018-2 高三年级四月考英语试卷第二卷（非选择题，共35 分）第一节阅读的表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）How much do you hate waiting for another beer in a crowded bar? It annoyed Josh Goodman enough to invent a pretty obvious solution --- self-service beer tap.Goodman 36, recalled the exact moment in late 2008 when his frustration boiled over. “I was hanging out with my friends at a Baltimore sports bar before a game,” he said.“We just couldn’t get another beer served to us quickly.”E ven more than annoyed, Goodman was struck by how much money the bar must be losing. Almost immediately, he got to work on a self-service beer concept.Within only a few months, Goodman had launched PourMyBeer inChicago. He invested$ 20,000 and partnered with a U.S. manufacturer to make beer tables with two to fourself-service taps, which were designed bu himself.In February 2009, Goodman landed his first client: A bar in Baltimore, America. He spent the next two years growing the business and adding more bars and restaurants. In 2011, PourMyBeer designed self-service “beer walls.” Which let people pour their own beer from taps on a wall.PourMyBeer has swelled to over 200 restaurants and bars in 28 states in American and Canada. It is planned to enter Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport this week and in Italy and Brazil later this year.The tables start at $ 4,000 and the beer walls cost as much as $16,000. It generated more than$ 400,000 in sales in 2013 and doubled that in 2014.
