Artificial intelligence(AI)teachers can provide customized teaching for students to meet their unique requirements through analyzing data and deep learning.In the future, they may replace human teachers for basic teaching tasks.Since some students may find it and put new power into traditional teaching patterns.An educational system providing customized teaching centered on students represents the future trend of AI education.China's AI education has developed rapidly in recent years with the rise of several thousand relevant companies.Currently,AI teachers are able to help students leamn pronunciation,analyze their condition,guide them to learn independently,and even grade writing assignments. Some foreign AI educational systems have been introduced into several domestic schools and have worked well on trial.However,the promotion of AI education is still facing several difficulties in practice such as low technological levels,inadequacy of data and lack of funds.AI education still depends largely on human teachers' work.Most importantly,it conflicts with current educational patterns because the courses developed by foreign countries are not suitable for Chinese exam-oriented education.Teachers may also find it hard to change their original roles in classrooms since easing control on classes may make them seem irresponsible.These problems need to be handled before the mass promotion of Al education.With AI teachers,the original teacher-centered classes will be transformed intostudent-centered ones where teachers only organize the class and provide guidance.Since teachers are supposed to not only equip students with knowledge but also shape their values and help themdevelop creative abilities,AI teachers will not replace human teachers but will only pose higher requirements of teaching.A combination of AI teachers and human ones can create the best future for Al education.______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________【答案】AI teachers c atering for students’ personalities can provide students with personalized teaching to meet their needs. China has seen rapid development in AI education in the past years. But many practical problems should be solved before its wide application. Despite the advantages of AI teachers, human ones will never be replaced; instead, both will play their joint roles in the future teaching.The function of AI teachers – the development of AI teachers – the problems of AI teachers before wide application – the role of human teachers with the application of AI teachers【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是概要写作。

People.(D)Artificial intelligence (人工智能) or AI in short, is the science of giving computers and machines the ability to think and work like humans. AI scientists and engineershave made a lot of cool technologies.AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. As a result, facial recognition(识别) is used a lot in the world. Chinese police use this technology toidentify criminals(罪犯). Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert. Italso checks the ID of ride-hailing(网约车) drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile.AI is also used in self-driving cars, which are believed to be the future of driving. Most drivers may wave or nod at passers-by to let them cross the street, but self-driving cars don’t have this ability. Carmakers are testing a light signal system to help them “speak” to humans. The system can show what self-driving cars will do. For example, ifa driverless car is yielding (让路), it will flash two white lights side to side. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up.Service Robots also show you how powerful AI is. Imagine this — you come back home from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door. After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano, just like a real music teacher. Such thoughtswill soon happen in the real world. In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers. Therefore, AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs.Math is the basic language of AI. If we raise the standard in the learning of math, our students will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. We notonly want bright students, but also need to attract average students and give them themain skills which are needed to change them into AI designers. Besides, good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.Scientists hope to create creative and emotional AI which can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this fascinating field.51. What does the underlined word “identify” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. To let somebody know his mistakes.B. To come to realize and tell who is who.C. To take somebody to the police station.D To inform somebody of something important52. According to the passage, what is facial recognition used for?A. Driving cars.B. Making people smile.C. Calling the police.D. Checking people's information.53. Which technology has been used in real life according to the passage?A. Service Robots at school.B.Robots as ride-hailing drivers.C. Facial recognition for paymentD. Light signals for self-driving cars.54. According to the writer and the following school report, which student will most probably become a successful AI designer?65. Which of the following may be the best title for this article?A. The future of human beings.B. The argument between humans and AI.C. The history of AI.D. The usage of AI.第二节阅读填空（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）My name is Annie Green, and I’m a high school student.

A while later, they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing （挤） out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at once. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.One serious American official said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard."The others thought for a while and said:"That was why!"A smart French said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife." Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.A Japanese said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son." Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.At that moment, one Chinese asked: "Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?"Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads, being embarrassed, and did not dare to answer.In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.A.smokeB.waterC.fireD.sandWhen some government officials found a mouse hole in a corner, they used toforce the mice inside to come out.（1）A.one was biting the otherB.the mouth of the hole was too smallC.they were not afraid of smokeD.one was trying to help the blind oneNeither of the two mice ran away immediately because .（2）A.B.C.D.Why did they lower their heads, being embarrassed, according to the passage?Because they did not dare to answer.Because they guessed the wrong relationship of the mice.Because they regretted driving a poor blind mouse away.Because they didn't express the best understanding of it.（3）A It is clear that .all the mice came out of the hole easily（4）D.the people knew one of the mice was blind at first sightA.Two Lovely MiceB.Help Produced LoveC.Friends in NeedD.Love Is AllThe best title for the passage is .（5）As one saying goes, where there are Chinese people, there are kung fu legends.Jin Yong, also known as Louis Cha Leung-yung, was regarded as one of the greatest kung fu fiction writers in China. And for many people, Cha built a magical kung fu kingdom that they could escape into every now and then. But this kingdom is falling apart now, because Cha passed away on Oct 30, 2018, at the age of 94.Cha wrote all of his 15 wuxia novels between 1955 and 1972. While the value and tastes of readers have changed greatly in recent decades, his books continue to attract people. His works have been filmed into movies and TV series so many times in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Chinese mainland that the comparison of these versions （版本） is of great interest to his fans.There is always a knight （大侠） with a spirit that is sincere in love, friendship and patriotism （爱国精神）at the center of his stories. Such characters move both men and women. For example, in The Return of the Condor Heroes 《神雕侠侣》, the young knight Yang Guo waits for his lover Xiaolongnu faithfully for 16 years, believing that she is still alive, even if she has jumped from a mountain into a valley. And in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils 《天龙八部》, powerful Xiao Feng treats his friends with sincere feelings, ready to die for the peace of his homeland.Cha has an excellent ability of using language. He has a theory about writing an attractive plot: "To make a lie believable, it's better to tell 10 truthful things along with it." This theory works well for Cha's writing. His stories are always full of rich history; the rules of partial arts （武术）are described in detail. As a result, he achieved a sense of realism with his partial arts heroes.Cha's books bring readers joy, and Cha himself has equal fun creating them. "Writing gives me space for imagination, just like a director, " Cha once said.However, Cha's real aim in writing novels is to show traditional Chinese valued and qualities. "Kung fu novels must describe justice and honesty. The good fight the wicked .Traditional valued are shown through the characters and their stories, not by lecturing readers, "he said.4 A.B.C.D.From the passage, we can know all of them EXCEPT .Cha spent about 17 years writing his 15 novelsCha is a famous writer as well as a famous directorpeople can get lost in the magical world when reading Cha's novelsCha always pay much attention to the Chinese traditional value in his novels（1）Why do Louis Cha's novels attract so many people?a ．their characters（2）A.abcdB.abdeC.abceD.acded ．Cha's deep understanding of readers' valued and tastese ．the traditional valued and qualities describedA.B.C.D.Which of the following statement is TRUE?Louis Cha was considered as the greatest kung fu fiction writer in the world.Because the tastes of readers have changed, Cha's books can't attract people any more.The Return of the Condor Heroes only talked about the spirit of the sincere love.Louis Cha likes reading lots of historical books to help his writing.（3）A.B.C.D.In the last paragraph, the underlined words "the wicked " refers to .the man full of strengththe man who are dishonestthe people who are weak in kong futhe people who are morally （道德上） unacceptable（4）A.B.C.D.What is the main idea of the passage?It analyzes （分析） why the books written by Louis Cha are so popular.It analyzed what kungfu fiction is and the related traditional value.It mainly talks about the characters in Louis Cha's books.It mainly describe Louis Cha's skills in writing novels.（5）5A.RecycleB.DangerousC.WetD.DryYour mother should put her unwanted lipstick （口红） in the bin.（1）A.flowers B.toilet paper C.paint D.batteriesWhich of the following kinds of waste should go in the wet bin?（2）A.copper pipes B.plastic bags C.copy paper D.paper cupsWhich of the following can be recycled?（3）A.Food Advertisementsic magazinesC.Health ReportsD.Waste sort postersWhere can you read it?（5）Parrots have been known to minic （模仿） words, but have you ever thought how theycommunicate? The sounds they make may sound meaningless to us, but new research has found that wild parrots are actually given names by their parents.According to a study led by Karl Betg of Cornell University in the US, nestlings （雏鸟）are given a unique sound of their own, which stays with them for their entire lives. In the study,the team placed hidden cameras in the nests of 17 different wild parrots. After studying their sounds, the team discovered small differences in the calls parents used to communicate with each chick. And eyes before the nestling had beamed to communicate properly, the baby birds seemed to recognize and mimic their calls.Sounds very similar to humans, doesn't it? The study also proved that these signature calls are acquired （获得）socially not genetically （基因上地）. To do this, scientists exchange the eggs in nine of the 17 nests, so that half of the parrots were raising nestling that weren't ing the recording, the scientists made a conclusion that the nestling all used names similar to those the parents （whether biological or nonbiological ） called them for the first weeks of their lives.Lucie MeNeil, from National Geographic, said, "This would be the first proven example of a non-human species teaching acoustical （声学的） communication."Lead scientist for the study, Karl beg told National Public Radio of the US, "Most people say, 'Well, all those calls are just noise, ' but I think they're having conversations.''Fox News also asked Berg what else the parrots might be saying. He replied, "The theory is that these birds are deciding where the food is, 'Do we want to go 3 km North-Northwest? '"Do we want to go to that field? ' They are kind of arguing or discussing."Natural science author, Virginia Morell, wrote: "Very gradually, scientists are learning to decode the conversations of very different animals that live lives rich with plans, quarrels, and romance."You never know, if the science of animal translation keeps developing, we might one day be watching a reality series about parrots.6 A.B.C.D.What did the new research find about wild parrots?They can talk by learning from people.The sounds they make are meaningless.They have names given by their parents.They have a unique way of making sounds.（1）A.B.What does the study suggest?Different parrots are called differently by their parents.Baby parrots can tell who their biological parents are.（2）A.B.C.D.Why did the scientists exchange the eggs in the study?To see whether the parents could recognize their own babies.To see whether the parrots made the same sounds all their lives.To see whether the signature calls were acquired socially or genetically.To see whether biological and nonbiological parents named babies differently.（3）A.mimic B.understand C.practice D.createThe underlined word "decode" in the passage is closest in meaning to " ”（4）A.④②①③⑤ B.②④①③⑤ C.④③①②⑤ D.②⑤④①⑤Which one is the correct order?①Baby parrots learned how to communicate rightly.②Scientists exchanged the eggs in the nests.③Baby parrots can recognize and mimic their calls.④Nestlings are given a sound of their own.⑤People proved the parrots can use sound to communicate with each other.（5）A.B.C.D.E.American actress Natalie Portman is a confident and successful woman. However, fewpeople realize that Portman had some very difficult moments in the past, and it happened during her time at Harvard University.Portman went to Harvard at the age of 18. 1 But on that famous campus, she lost her confidence. She thought she could never read 1, 000 pages every week or write a 50-page paper. She was shocked by her classmates. 2 "I felt like every time I opened my mouth, I would have to show that I wasn't just a dumbed （愚蠢的）actress. " In 2003, Portman graduated. She said the experience taught her that one should always be confident. 3She tried a lot of new things with A Tale of Love and Darkness 《爱与黑暗的故事》. She directed it. She wrote part of the script （剧本）. 4"All of these things were challenges I should have been feared, as I was completely unprepared." said Portman. " 5 , and my belief that I could handle these things was half the battle （成功了一半）."That way, she said, you can "try things that you never would have tried"But once there, I had to work it all out.At the time, she had been acting for seven years and was already famous.They thought the quantity of work was easy compared with high school.She also shot the film entirely in Hebrew （希伯来语）, the language of Israel, her birthplace.7四、语篇补全（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）五、首字母填空（共6小题，每小题1分，共6分）—Don't be so rude.
