题目内容
【题目】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.【1】
Artificial intelligence(AI)is usually defined as the science of marking computers do things that require intelligence when done by humans.【2】These include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language-understanding.
【3】In 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.
【4】Physicist 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.”【5】They 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.
A. Other scientists have also expressed the concern.
B. Artificial intelligence has both advantages and disadvantages.
C. Defeating a human Go master is not the only thing AI can do.
D. Artificial intelligence will bring us disasters instead of benefits.
E. It was designed by an American Artificial intelligence company.
F. Not all experts hold the optimistic attitudes to the development of AI.
G. Research in AI has so far focused on some special fields of intelligence.
【答案】
【1】E
【2】G
【3】C
【4】F
【5】A
【解析】文章主要讲述了人工智能,以及人们对于人工智能的不同态度。
【1】根据前句内容AlphaGo is an artificial intelligence(AI)Go-playing program. 可知,此处是对阿尔法狗的介绍,所以E合适,意为它是被美国的人工智能公司设计的。
【2】根据后句的内容These include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language-understanding.可知,主要介绍了人工智能研究涉及的领域,所以前句是对对研究的评价,引出后句的研究领域。所以G正确。这些领域包括学习,推理,问题解决,感知以及语言理解等。
【3】根据后句内容In fact we are increasingly depending. upon computer-based artificial intelligence.。。。Smartphones, self-driving cars, intelligent robots,etc. are constantly coming into our life.可知人工智能现在已经被应用于很多领域,所以此处表示在围棋比赛中战胜人类不是人工智能唯一的表现。所以C正确。
【4】根据后文内容Physicist 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.可知人们对于人工智能的观点有些是消极的。所以F正确。
【5】根据后文的They 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.可知,此处仍表达一部分人的观点 ,所以选A,表示其他的科学家们也表达了关注。
