    3．Artificial intelligence keeps defeating human，it is making countless victories against human in different fields of life and trying to push human to the corner．
    Google's DeepMind has defeated the world's number one player Ke Jie．Human brain somehow has been replaced by a machine and scientists are working very hard on developing a human brain by implanting a chip and connecting it to the thick neuron that connects the two hemispheres of the brain．Well，who doesn't want to get his brain upgraded to be as smart as the brain of Albert Einstein or Charles Darwin？
    Humans will probably one day invent a brain that can be implanted in the human skull and reprogram all the human thoughts，but his invention doesn't seems to be happening in the foreseeable future since human brain took millions of years to evolve．Some scientists believe that human will defeat death in the next twenty hundred years but they can't really predict how long it's going to take to develop a human brain that can completely replace the natural brain．
    Despite of this accomplishment in the field of artificial intelligence，it couldn't crease people from believing that science can't stand alone．For instance，AI can imitate human brain and most of the time outperforms it，but there are still a lot of hidden secrets．AI outsmarted Ke Jie has consciousness unlike the AI，Ke Jie felt sad when he was defeated and buried his face in his hands but the AI didn't feel happy and celebrate his victory．
    The computer of 1960 is the same as the computer of 2017 in terms of consciousness，there is no signs so far telling us that there is an algorithm（运算）that can make a conscious computer and decipher（译解）its feelings．We can predict what the future will look like according to the past，especially from scientific point of view but the development of human brain seems unpredictable and unknown．

    32．What is the possible meaning of the underlined word"neuron"in Para.2？B
    A．the tube through which blood flows in your brain
    B．the kind of cell that carries information
    C．the soft fatty substance in the hollow center of bones
    D．the bony part of one's head which encloses his/her brain
    33．What is Paragraph 3mainly about？D
    A．It took millions of years for human brain to evolve
    B．Humans wish to get their brains upgraded to be as smart as possible
    C．Humans will probably invent a brain that can reprogram all the human thoughts．
    D．It is hard to develop a human brain that can completely replace the natural brain
    34．"Ke Jie felt sad when he was defeated"is mentioned in Para.4toA．
    A．show that the AI has no human emotions
    B．explain that AlphaGo is virtually unbeatable in the board game
    C．tell us the accomplishment in the field of artificial intelligence
    D．analyze Ke Jie's psychological characteristics when playing the game
    35．What can be the best title for the passage？C
    A．World Top Go Player Ke Jie Challenges AlphaGo
    B．AlphaGo Teaches To use AI To benefit Humans
    C．Google AI Defeats Human Go Champion
    D．AI Can Imitate Human Brain And Most Of the Time Outperforms It．

    分析 这是一篇说明文，讲述了人工智能在生活的各个领域击败人类，取得了无数的胜利，但这并不能说明人工智能可以取代大脑．尽管在人工智能领域取得了成就，但它不能使人们相信科学不能独立存在，而且从科学的角度来看，人脑的发展似乎是不可预测和未知的．并通过谷歌的DeepMind击败了世界头号选手Ke Jie为例阐明了人工智能并不能完全取代大脑的论点．

    解答 32．B词义猜测题．由第二段中的"developing a human brain by implanting a chip and connecting it to the thick neuron that connects the two hemispheres of the brain．"可知科学家正努力尝试通过植入一块芯片并将其连接到大脑两个半球的…上来开发人脑，连接两个半球的一般是指某种可以携带信息来刺激大脑做出反应的物质，可推断出neuron指的是某种可以携带信息的神经元，故选B
    33．D细节理解题．由第三段Some scientists believe that human will defeat death in the next twenty hundred years but they can't really predict how long it's going to take to develop a human brain that can completely replace the natural brain．，有一天人类可能发明一种可以植入人类骨头和改变人类思想的大脑，但他的发明不可能发生在可预见的未来，因为人类是经过几百万年的进化演变而来的，故可知第三段主要谈论的是发展一个可以完全取代自然大脑的人脑是困难的，故选D．
    34．A推理判断题．由第四段中的"Ke Jie felt sad when he was defeated and buried his face in his hands but the AI didn't feel happy and celebrate his victory．"可知，当Ke Jie被击败，双手捂着脸感到悲伤时，AI没有感到高兴，也没有庆祝他的胜利，由此可推断出AI没有人类的情感，故选A．
    35．C主旨大意题．本文主要围绕着谷歌的DeepMind击败了世界头号选手Ke Jie的主题，开展了人工智能与大脑之间是否可以相互取代的话题，从不同方面说明了即使人工智能在许多领域战胜人脑，但它不能完全的取代大脑，故可知本文的最好标题是Google AI Defeats Human Go Champion，谷歌的AI战胜人类取得胜利．故选C．

    点评 本文是一个科技类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．

    20．Once，when I was a teenager，my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus （马戏）．Finally，there was only one family between us and the ticket counter．
       This family made a big impression on me．There were eight children，all probably under the age of twelve．You could tell they didn't have a lot of money．
       Their clothes were not expensive，but they were clean．The children were well-behaved，all of them standing in line，two-by-two behind their parents，holding hands．They were excitedly talking about the clowns，elephants，and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice．
       One could sense they had never been to the circus before．It promised to be highlight of their young lives．The father and mother were at the head of the pack，standing proud as could be．The mother was holding her husband's hand，looking up at him as if to say，"You are my knight in shining armor．"
       He was smiling and responding in pride，looking back at her as if to say，"You got that right．"The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted．He proudly responded，"Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus．"
       The ticket lady gave the price．The man's wife let go of his hand，her head dropped，and his lips began to shake．The father leaned a little closer and asked，"How much did you say？"
       The ticket lady again quoted the price．The man didn't have enough money．
       How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus？
       Actually we were not wealthy in any sense．So I understand how the kids would feel．I felt sorry for them．

    Paragraph 1
    Seeing what was going on，my dad put his hand in his pocket，pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground．Then he picked it op and tapped the man on the shoulder and said，"Excuse me，sir，this fell out of your pocket．'The man turned around and saw the money．He knew what was going on，he looked straight into my dad's eyes，took my dad's hand in both of his，squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill，and with his lip shakingand a tear running down his cheek，he replied，"Thank you，thank you，sir．This really means a lot to me and my family．"
    Paragraph 2
    That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets．We didn't go to the circus that night，when I asked dad why he did so，Dad said，"My child，it was a desperate，heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father．Surely he wasn't begging for a handout，but he reminded me of my father，when I was young．"He paused for a while，as if wandering in his memory．"We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others．We didn't go to the circus tonight，but we didn't go without．"．

    11．Vitamin B could help reduce the effects of the dangerous type of air pollution，according to a new study published on Monday．In the first study of its kind，a team of international researchers looked into the damage caused by one of the pollutants that have the severest impact on health-PM2.5．
    They found that Vitamin B supplement could effectively reduce the impact of the tiny particles （颗粒）on the human body，although they stressed that the research was in its early stages．According to the WHO，92% of the world's people are living in places where the PM2.5 level goes beyond the recommended level．So it's urgent to find a solution to the problem．
    According to this study，published in the PNAS，10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo （安慰剂）to check their baseline responses．The group then kept on taking placebos tor tour weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto，where an estimated 1，000cars passed every hour．The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an"oxygen type"face mask．The experiment was then repeated，with each volunteer taking a Vitamin B supplement daily，made up of 2.5mg of folic acid，50mg of Vitamin B6，and l mg of Vitamin B12．
    Vitamin B6can be found in liver，chicken，nuts and other things，and Vitamin B12 in fish，meat，eggs，milk and some cereals．The researchers found that four weeks of Vitamin B supplements-the damage of PM2.5effects by 28-76%．The results emphasized how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight against the damage of PM2.5，the researchers said．

    29．What's the newly discovered effect of Vitamin B in Paragraph 1？C
    A．It can be used to replace other vitamins in our daily life．
    B．It can help lower the air pollution level in the open air．
    C．It can reduce the impact of PM2.5on human bodies．
    D．It can get rid of the pollutants remaining in our body．
    30．What can be learned from the second paragraph？A
    A．Further study about the effect of Vitamin B needs to be done．
    B．Vitamin B is the most important to human's health．
    C．The tiny particles in the air are made up of PM2.5．
    D.92% of the world's people are affected by PM2.5．
    31．How did researchers draw the new conclusion about Vitamin B？B
    A．By referring to a journal．
    B．By performing experiments．
    C．By interviewing scientists．
    D．By comparing vitamins．

    18．Americans always attach great weight to the business of the country．President Coolidge's statement，"the business of America is business．" Still points to an important truth today---that business institutions have more prestige（威望）in American society than any other kind of organization，including the government．Why do business institutions possess this great prestige？
    One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of competition than other institutions in society．Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most Americans，competitive business institutions are respected．Competition is not only good in itself，it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freedom，equality of opportunity，and hard work are protected
    Competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly （垄断、垄断者）of power．In contrast to one，all-powerful government，many businesses compete against each other for profits．Theoretically，if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers，it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly．Where many businesses compete for the customers'dollar，they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors（下属）or slaves．
    A contrast is often made between business，which is competitive，and government，which is a monopoly．Because is competitive，many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government，even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not．Many Americans believes，then，that competition is as important，or even more important，than democracy in preserving freedom
    Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the ideal of equality of opportunity．Competition is seen as an open and fair where success goes to the swiftest person regardless of his or her social class background．Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternation to social rank based on family background．Business is therefore world as an expression of the idea of equality of opportunity in America rather than the aristocratic（贵族的）idea of inherited privilege in many other countries

    32．The statement"The business of America is business"probably means"C"
    A．the business institutions in American are concerned with commerce（商业）
    B．business problems are of great importance to the American government
    C．business is of primary concern to Americans
    D．America is a great power in world business
    33．Who can benefit from the business competition？C
    A．Honest businessmen
    B．People with ideas of equality and freedom
    C．Both businessmen and their customers
    D．Both business institutions and government
    34．Government is believed to differ unusually from business because government is characterized byA．
    A．its absolute control of power
    B．its function in preserving personal freedom
    C．its role in protecting basic American values
    D．its democratic way of exercising leadership
    35．It can be concluded from the passage that the author believesB．
    A．Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries
    B．in many countries，success often depends on one's social status
    C．American businesses are more democratic（民主的）than those in other countries
    D．businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in America．

    Jenny watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school．He seemed so clever，and he had a certain sort of shining confidence．He was just one of those people who were good at everything．Jenny sighed．As she turned the corner，she saw Lee's watch lying right in the middle of the path．
    Jenny knew she should just pick it up and return it to him，but shed didn't want to run after him．jenny bent down quickly，picked up the watch and ran home．On arriving home，Jenny put it on almost without thinking．She was surprised it fitted so well．She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech．Words just flooded out of her．"I'm going to talk about swimming．I have been lucky．I've won lots of competitions．But when I'm in a race，I'm not really thinking about winning．I'm just loving the feeling of being in the water…"Jenny laughed with excitement．She walked across the room．She suddenly seemed to have a certain sort of confidence．Turning back to the mirror，Jenny saw a flash of light from the watch in the glass．The flashes of silver seemed almost magical．So maybe Lee's watch Lee's watch really DID have something magic about it．
    The next day，as the lesson began，Miss Walker asked who was going to be brave and go first．Nobody moved．Jenny slowly raised her arm．Before Miss Walker could say anything，there was a shout from behind．"She's stolen my watch!"Lee said angrily，"It went missing at school yesterday．"
