9.In 2017,AlphaGo defeated Chinese player Ke Jie to become the world's No 1,ending thousands of years of human dominance(控制)in the game.AlphaGo is an artificial intelligence(AI)Go-playing program.(36)EArtificial intelligence(AI)is usually defined as the science of marking computers do things that require intelligence when done by humans.(37)GThese include learning,reasoning,problem-solving,perception,and language-understanding.
(38)CIn fact we are increasingly depending.upon computer-based artificial intelligence.As Charlie Qrtiz said,head of AL at the Massachusetts-based software company Nuance Communication,"It has opened a window for us."Smartphones,self-driving cars,intelligent robots,etc.are constantly coming into our life.According to a recent survey,half of the world's AI experts believe human level machine intelligence will be achieved by 2040.This will open up huge possibilities for the enrichment of mankind,from tackling climate change and treating disease to labour-saving devices.
(39)FPhysicist Stephen Hawking last year warned that unless we take care,board games might be the least of it."The development of full artificial intelligence could mean the end of the human race."(40)AThey believe AlphaGo's victory is a reminder of how fast the world is overcoming the obstacles in the way of AI,and its distribution in the world about us.Although there may yet be no evidence that computers will ever shake off their human masters,we should still treat these development with the humility and caution they deserve.

分析 文章讲述了AI技术的快速发展,给我们带来好处的同时很多专家也表达了担心.
解答 36.E 37.G 38.C 39.F 40.A
36.E 上下文语境.根据后句Artificial intelligence(AI)is usually defined…介绍人工智能的情况,所以上句提到AlphaGo是由美国一家公司设计的,故选E.
37.G 上下文语境. 根据后句These include learning,reasoning,problem-solving,perception,and language-understanding.可知,这些都是他们研究的领域,故选G.
38.C 上下文语境. 从下文It has opened a window for us."Smartphones,self-driving cars,intelligent robots,etc.are constantly coming into our life可知,打败人类不是唯一AI做的事情,还有很多比如智能手机,自驾汽车等,故选C.
39.F 上下文语境.根据下句Physicist Stephen Hawking last year warned that unless we take care可知,Stephen Hawking 去年发出警告,说明并非所有的专家都认可AI,故选F.
40.A 上下文语境.从最后一句we should still treat these development with the humility and caution they deserve.得知,我们应该用人性和小心来对待这些AI发展,所以还有很多专家对此担心,故选A.
