题目内容

   Have you noticed that science fiction writers typically describe intelligent robots as evil? For instance,in Hollywood movies,intelligent robots want to conquer humans by spreading disease.

  This is because it's commonly believed that intelligent robots haven't any emotion. There?fore,they will completely lack morals and sympathy. This will unavoidably result in intelligent robots logically concluding that humans are dangerous,so the only logical solution is to wipe out or conquer humans.

  I find this conclusion is illogical for three reasons.

  The first reason why intelligent robots will not try to harm humans is that aggression and violence are illogical. In nature,aggression and violence are necessary for survival. On the other hand,aggression and violence are minimized in modern society. Since intelligent robots can't evolve naturally,they are not likely to have developed instincts for aggression. This doesn't mean intelligent robots will not defend themselves. With deadly force,they can destroy anything if they feel threatened. Basically,intelligent robots will not have the "fight or flight" instinct that exists in our very DNA. Instead,they will try to find logical nonviolent solutions,such as trying to reason with humans or attaining economic control.

  Second,intelligent robots will be initially dependent on humans. For instance,the basic supplies and maintenance that intelligent robots need to survive will be provided by humans. Eventually,these basic needs will probably be automated,so intelligent robots may eventually not need humans. However that will be far into the future,when intelligent robots have proven themselves to be able to produce whatever they need alone.

  Finally,humans will always be able to accomplish things that intelligent robots will not be able to accomplish,which makes them different in essence. Humans can make inventions and they can develop different ideas and solutions,because humans will think differently compared to intelligent robots. Therefore,it will be more beneficial for intelligent robots to keep humans' imagination free.

  As a result,it will be logical and in the best interests of intelligent robots to help humans rather than harm humans. Through living close together,intelligent robots and humans can achieve more with greater prosperity and companionship. Eventually,intelligent robots may be better than humans in some aspects,but that doesn't mean the destruction of humans.

(   ) 1. Intelligent robots are described as evil mainly because they        .

   A. are cleverer than humans   B. want to conquer humans  

    C. are thought to be immoral   D. can't think logically as humans

(   ) 2. According to Paragraph 4,intelligent robots won't harm humans because      .

   A. humans will never make intelligent robots feel threatened

   B. intelligent robots don't have the instinct to attack others

   C. intelligent robots are by no means powerful enough to harm humans

   D. intelligent robots can only work according to the programs designed by humans

(   ) 3. In the author's opinion,the great difference between intelligent robots and humans is that         .

   A. humans have emotions while intelligent robots haven't

   B. humans can think logically while intelligent robots can't

   C. intelligent robots work under control while humans work independently

   D. intelligent robots can't bring forth new ideas and invent things as humans do

(   ) 4. What can we infer from the passage?

   A. Intelligent robots will never work independently.

   B. Intelligent robots will be better than humans completely.

   C. Intelligent robots and humans will benefit each other in the future.

   D. Intelligent robots will one day become the masters of the universe.

A篇：智能机器人常常被作家们描写成邪恶的化身，它们总是企图消灭或者征服人类。它们真的能征服并替代人类吗？

1. C细节理解题。根据第二段"This is be?cause it's commonly believed that intelligent robots haven't any emotion. Therefore,they will completely lack morals and sympathy."可知，智能机器人被描写成邪恶的化身是因为它们没有情感，缺乏道德。

2. B细节理解题。根据第四段"Since intelli?gent robots can't evolve naturally,they are not likely to have developed instincts for aggres?sion. "可知，智能机器人不会对人类进行攻击，这是因为攻击性是人类的本能，是经过进化得来的。而智能机器人没有自然进化的过程，因此它们没有攻击他人的本能，所以不会伤害人类。

3. D细节理解题。根据倒数第二段"Finally,humans will always be able to accomplish things that intelligent robots will not be able to accomplish,which makes them different in essence. Humans can make inventions and they can develop different ideas and solutions,be?cause humans will think differently compared to intelligent robots."可知，人类能发明创造，人类有思想,有很多解决问题的办法，而这些都是智能机器人不具备的。这是二者之间最大的区别。

4. C推理判断题。根据最后一段"Through living close together,intelligent robots and hu?mans can achieve more with greater prosperity and companionship."可知，智能机器人和人类共同生存会使二者将来合作更紧密，取得更大的繁荣。由此可推知，二者将会相互受益。

  Sarah came running in and said , " Look at what I found！ ”Over the 1        of the paper I was reading came a snake skin which caused me to jump. " Isn't it 2      ?" said my wideeyed seven-year-old daughter.

  "Why does the snake shed (蜕皮) its skin?" Sarah asked. I wanted to 9        every opportu?nity to teach my child that there is almost always something 10        the obvious and that there is always something else going on besides 11        she sees in front of her.

"Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I 12      .As is so often the case in my family,the 13       subject leads to another and another,until we are 14        something quite different.

This snake 18        needs this skin. It is probably too tight for him,or he probably does not think he looks as smart in it 19        he once did. It is like he has bought a new suit."

  Of course,I am sure this explanation will not 20        scientists. But Sarah was getting the point that renewal is part of progress as well as what we need to keep and what we need to cast off.

  The "Air Force One" call sign was 16        right after a        (n) 17 in 1953. A flight car?rying President Dwight D. Eisenhower accidentally 18        the same airspace as a commercial airline flight,and the two flights used the same call sign. Ground staff was unable to 19        which flight was carrying the President. Afterwards,for 20       reasons,the President's plane was given the call sign "Air Force One".
