课时提升作业三十二选修7Unit 2Robots(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AMaybe it has been the influence of the current scene: the type among urban biking. Apparently, urban biking requires entirely different bikes than suburban hiking does and therefore a Bike Design Project started, where five design studios across five cities had to come up with a perfect urban bike. The winning bike will be manufactured for a limited run of 100 hikes and will be in stores next year. Industry, a Portland-based studio, came up with a very interesting bike: one that uses bluetooth and handlebars (车把手) that tell you when to stop or turn.Industry worked together with Ti Cycles to create a bike with a 3D printed titanium frame (钛框架). The bike is called Solid and can be connected to a smartphone APP: My Bike. This APP alarms a user when a light needs replacement and if something gets wrong with one’s brakes. There is also software called Discover My City, which has a s eries of routes through Portland’s most trendy neighborhoods, with suggestions about where to eat and shop.Nevertheless, the idea with cycling is that you need to focus on the road and not on your smartphone. This bike therefore uses integrated feedback on handlebars.Those handlebars tell a user when to turn, as they will buzz when a turn appears. As you are getting closer, they will buzz more frequently. And then there is the possibility to control your light via built-in sensors and change gears by pressing an electronic button.Although the bicycle looks highly interesting and can be seen as a piece of art for the designing world, we don’t know if we would like our bike to have an automatic buzz when we are approaching a turn. On the other side, it could add some extra safety to traffic in general. Whether you like the bike or not, you have to admit the Portland-based studio brings the concept of urban biking to a whole new level.【文章大意】本文介绍一种未来将要出现的一种新型自行车。

Nearly seventy percent of people living in the region lack access to electricity, forcing them to spend significant amounts of their income on costly and unhealthy forms of energy such as diesel (柴油) fuel to run generators and kerosene (煤油) for lanterns.But if there is one thing Africa is not lacking, it is sunshine. And that means a lot; indeed, for some of the world’s poorest people, it makes all the difference inthe world.A little more than a year ago, Power Africa — a U. S. Government initiative (倡议) coordinated by the U. S. Agency for International Development, or USAID —and Power Africa’s partners, the United Kingdom Department for International Development, Shell Foundation, and the African Development Bank, started the Scaling Off-Grid Energy Grand Challenge for Development, with a focus on pay-as-you-go solar home systems. The Challenge’s goal is to provide 20 million off-grid (离网) households in sub-Saharan Africa with clean, affordable electricity by 2030. So far, the Challenge has made 40-plus investments in early-stage, off-grid energy companies, which are expected to result in some 4. 8 million new electrical connections.One reason for the success of the start-up companies that have won grants (资助) from the Challenge is the fact that the cost of solar technology is falling fast, so it is within the means of those who live away from traditional power grids. And thanks to the new system of mobile money and pay-as-you-go financing, they can purchase the solar power-generating equipment they need and pay for it in daily installments (分期付款) from their telephones, for as little as 15 cents a day.Thanks to these technological and financial innovations (创新), many people are getting electricity for the first time, every day. In these newly-electrified communities, businesses can boom, clinics can safely store vaccines, and students may study long after dark. Indeed, access to clean and reliable electricity can enable entire communities to escape the cycle of extreme poverty.【文章大意】本文主要讲了技术的发展解决了撒哈拉以南的非洲人民的用电问题。

Unit 2 RobotsⅠ.阅读理解A[2020·昆明市高三复习诊断]Artificial intelligence(AI) technology may soon be a useful tool for doctors. It may help them better understand and treat diseases like liver cancer in ways that were never before possible.Rishi Rawat, who teaches AI at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, is part of a team of scientists researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the liver. Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He say s, “You can put the data into them and they will learn the patterns and the pattern recognition that's important for making decisions.〞David Agus is another researcher. He believes that machines are not going to take the place of doctors. “Computers will not treat patients, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can't recognize by itself.〞Once a confirmed cancerous growth is removed, doctors still have to treat the patient to reduce the risk of cancer returning. The form of treatment depends on the kind of cancer. Nowadays, researchers take a thin piece of tissue (组织), put it on a small piece of glass and add color to see the cells better. That process could take days or even longer. Scientists say artificial intelligence can do something better than just count cells. Through machine learning, it can recognize complex patterns or structures, and learn how the cells are organized.The hope is that machines will soon be able to make a quick identification of cancer that is free of human mistakes. Agus says the process could be done for almost no cost in the developing world and that having a large amount of information about patients is important for a machine to effectively do its job in medicine.The researchers of the university are now only studying liver cancer. But doctors predict artificial intelligence will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.1．What can AI do with the help of the information provided by the researchers?A．Recognize cancer patterns.B．Treat liver cancer.C．Collect useful information.D．Store cancerous cells.2．What can we learn about AI?A．It will be able to replace doctors.B．Patients are unlikely to be cancerous again with its help.C．It is making a difference in taking care of patients.D．It can recognize cancer more accurately.3．What's the author's attitude towards the future of AI?A．Optimistic. B．Doubtful.C．Curious. D．Cold.4．What is the best title for the text?A．AI Is Used to Treat CancersB．AI May Compete with DoctorsC．AI May Make Doctors BetterD．AI Is Better at Curing CancersB[2020·南昌模拟]Robots are now being employed not just for dangerous tasks, such as discovering mines or rescuing people in disasters. They are also finding applications as household help and as nursing assistants. As increasing numbers of machines, equipped with the latest artificial intelligence, take on a growing variety of specialized and everyday tasks, the question of how people see them and behave towards them becomes ever more urgent.A team led by Sari Nijssen of Radboud University and Markus Paulus, Professor of Developmental Psychology at LudwigMaximiliansUniversitaet(LMU), have carried out a study to determine the degree to which people show concern for robots and behave towards them based on moral principles.According to Sari Nijssen, the study set out to answer the following question: “Under what circumstances would adults be willing to sacrifice robots to save humanlives？〞 The participants were faced with a hypothetical (假设的) moral dilemma: Would they be prepared to put a single person at risk in order to save a group of injured persons? In the situations presented the intended victim was either a human, a humanoid robot that had been humanized to various degrees or a robot that was clearly recognizable as a machine.The study suggested that the more the robot was humanized, the less likely participants were to sacrifice it. Situations that included vivid stories in which the robot was described as a merciful being or as a creature with its own understandings, experiences and thoughts, were more likely to stop the study participants from sacrificing it in the interests of anonymous (无名的) humans.“This result indicates that our study group attached a certain moral status to the robot，〞says Paulus. “One possible suggestion of this finding is that attempts to humanize robots should not go too far. Such efforts could come into conflict with their intended function — to be of help to us.〞5．What has become a concern about robots?A．How to humanize them.B．How to treat them in life.C．How to use them effectively.D．How to find more applications.6．In the study the participants probably have to decide ________.A．when to sacrifice a robotB．where to experience risksC．which robot to work withD．what robots should be like7．What can be inferred from Paulus' words?A．Humanized robots offer less help to people.B．Humanizing robots too much may be improper.C．Certain moral status should be attached to robots.D．Conflicts often happen between humans and robots.8．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Robots, a Must for FutureB．Humanized Robots, a New TrendC．Robots Saved, People Take the HitD．Humanized Robots Replace HumanⅡ.七选五[2020·临川一中等六校联考]Rise and Shine All DayMaking these easy tasks part of your morning schedule will improve your nutrition, energy, and mood today — and beyond.Stretch in bed.Try this even before you open your eyes.

And now, a new painter is ready to join the list, although this one isn’t even human.Next month, auction house(拍卖行) Christie’s Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of art created by artificial intelligence for sale. The painting is a portrait of a man called Edmond De Belamy, and is expected to be sold for up to $10, 000 (69, 000 yuan).The work, which features a man with a mysterious look on his face, was created by software developed by the French art group Obvious. Nicholas Laugero Lasserre, an art collector from France, called the work “ridiculous and amazing a t the same time”. This isn’t the first example of AI-produced artwork, as AI has already been used to write poems and compose songs. However, many people doubt whether it should be called art at all.According to Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, art is about creating emotion. It’s “a means of. . . joining people together in the same feelings”, he once said.So, if the emotion behind art is what makes the art, the ability to create and use tools is what makes human beings different from other species. And asa tool itself, the AI technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of effort made by several designers. Together, they “fed” the AI a huge collection of paintings from the 14th to the 18th centuries, until it was able to work out how to make similar paintings of its own.The introduction of AI art could be the beginning of a new artistic movement. However, not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists just yet. 【文章大意】这是一篇议论文。

考点规范练32(选修7Unit2)Ⅰ.阅读理解AEach year,hikers and mountain bikers get lost or injured in the wilderness.Search and rescue efforts can involve 20 or more people.But a new “smart” drone(无人机) can follow hiking trails(小路) without a pilot’s assistance.This could allow rescuers to search more efficiently.Scientists outfitted a craft with a single camera.As the drone’s “eye”,the camera pointed forwards.But having an eye wasn’t enough.The drone also needed a “brain” to understand what it was seeing.And that brain would have to recognize what constitutes a trail.Camera images,however,can be very difficult for a computer to interpret,study leader Alessandro Giusti notes.So he and his team used photos of forest trails to train their drone’s neural network(神经网络).They attached three GoPro cameras to a single headband.One camera pointed straight forward.The other two were directed 30 degrees to the right and left of the centre.A hiker put the package on and then hit the trails in a forested part of Switzerland.Over several weeks,the cameras recorded a total of 8 hours of video covering 7 kilometres of trails.The researchers then divided the video into individual still images to train the neural network.The network learned to identify what a trail looked like.The team then tested the program with unused images from the video.The computer did a slightly better job than the people had in correctly classifying the images.This meant the drone was ready to navigate the real world on its own.Giusti and his team took their new “smart” device to a forest with trails that had not been used in the drone’s training.It flew along the path,constantly adjusting its direction based on the images coming in through its camera.The drone didn’t perform as well in real-life as it did in the lab,Giusti admits.That’s because the drone’s camera took lower-quality images than the cameras that had been used to train it.As a result,the images being taken by the drone looked different,he explains.This confused its neural network.“It’s an exciting use for neural networks,” says Christopher Rasmussen,a computer-vision scientist who was not involved with the study.“However,the problems faced in the experiments show that there are still some important issues to be worked out.”1.The “smart” drone has been created in order to help .A.find travelers who get lostB.ensure the safety of travelersC.deliver necessities to travelersD.show travelers the way to a place2.While being tested to classify the images in the lab,the computer .A.did as well as the peopleB.did a lot better than the peopleC.did much worse than the peopleD.did a little better than the people3.Why didn’t the drone perform well in the forest?A.The light in the forest was very poor.B.The trees or bushes covered the trails.C.The drone couldn’t fly very low there.D.The pictures taken were of poor quality.4.What is Christopher Rasmussen’s attitude towards the results of the experiments?A.Critical.B.Doubtful.C.Objective.D.Optimistic.BShopping centres,stadiums and universities may soon have a new tool to help fight crime.A California company called Knightscope says its robots can predict and prevent crime.Knightscope says the goal is to reduce crime by half in areas the robots guard.William Santana Li is the chief executive officer of Knightscope.He says,“These robot security guards will change the world.Our planet has seven billion people on it.It’s going to quickly get to nine billion people.The security equipment that we have globally is just not going to develop that fast.The company’s Autonomous Data Machines can become the eyes and ears of law enforcement (执行).”“You want it to be machines plus humans.Let the machines do the heavy and sometimes dangerous work and let the humans do the strategic decision-making work,so it’s always working all together.”The machines are one and a half meters tall and weigh 136 kilograms.They do not carry weapons but they have day-and-night time video cameras which are able to turn 360 degrees and can also sense chemical and biological weapons.Some people may become concerned about their privacy,especially in connection with the video recordings.Some people may worry that such recordings will appear on the Internet.Eugene Volokh,a law professor at the University of California,says the machines have to be used in the right way and it will be interesting to see how state laws deal with this kind of video.William Santana Li says there is a long waiting list for the robots in the US.Workers in the company are working overtime to meet the demands of the market.At least 25 other countries are also interested in these robotic security guards.5.What can this new tool do for humans?A.Make strategic decisions.B.Keep watching day and night.C.Carry heavy weapons.D.Stop crime autonomously.6.Why are people worried?A.Their privacy may be let out.B.The robots are very expensive.C.Robots will replace humans.D.They will be out of work soon.7.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A.Robots Are Becoming More PopularB.Robots Contribute a Lot to the WorldC.Robots Are in Great Demand NowD.Security Robots Could Help Cut CrimeⅡ.七选五阅读(2017·福建福州普通高中毕业班综合质检)Which is much more significant to you when you are finding a job?Working experience or an advanced degree?Well,I believe diverse people have different answers.1Here are some reasons: Above all,most of jobs don’t require such a high degree,which means just some work,such as theoretical physics,archaeology,or literature,needs high academic qualification.2For example,when you are offering a department manager post,and there is a man who has already been a manager for three years but only has a master’s degree and an inexperienced person with a doctor’s degree,which one would you choose?Definitely the first one for the manager who doesn’t acquire a doctor’s degree but has rich working experience.3 For instance,Bill Gates,who was the richest man in the world and one of the most successful merchants.What a wise choice when he decided to abandon studying so that he could gain more working experience instead of a doctor’s degree!Or Steve Paul Jobs,who discontinued his study at the age of nineteen in order to become a member of a computer company just like Bill Gates.45Maybe you shouldn’t have to gain an advanced or high degree,but that doesn’t mean nothing.Probably a bachelor’s degree is still necessary in this fiercely competitive society.All in all,I think rich working experience is much more important than an advanced degree.A.However,a degree is still required for most people.B.Meanwhile,rich working experience will draw more attention.C.Secondly,plenty of experience will bring you success much earlier.D.In my view,either working experience or an advanced degree counts.E.As for me,I will say working experience without hesitation.F.As a matter of fact,more people with rich working experience become successful.G.From all of these,we can see that an advanced degree isn’t so necessary as working experience.Ⅲ.书面表达假设你校学生会定于4月10日组织一次高三学生的登山活动,请根据下面表格内容,以学生会的名义用英语写一则通知,欢迎同学们积极参加。
