Artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能）is the ability of a computer program or a machine to think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers "smart". John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with the name "artificial intelligence" in 1955. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as we do.An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs that can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地）. At present we use the term Al for successfully understanding human speech, recognizing(识别）human faces, operating self-driving cars and competing in some game systems like Chess and AlphGo（阿尔法狗）. Some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. Professor Stephen Hawking (霍金), a well-known British scientist, was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If we raise the standard in the learning of math, our students will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. We not only want bright students, but also need to attract average students and give them the math skills which are needed to change them into AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.Scientists hope to create creative and emotional AI which can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this fascinating field.（1）From Paragraph 1, we know that .A . all problems can be solved by AIB . machines with AI can think and learnC . AI has been around for only 60 years.D . AI works in the same way as humans（2）The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refers to(指的是）A . ChessB . AlphaGoC . the dangerD . AI（3）According to the writer and the following school report, which student will most probably become a successful AI designer?School ReportB . Peter.C . Amy.D . Cathy.（4）Paragraph 4 mainly tells us the scientists' about AI.A . wishesB . worriesC . feelingsD . discoveries18. （6分）阅读理解Young Music Scene ConcertYoung musicians from all over Germany perform at Young Scene Concert at Berlin's famousQuasimodo music hall.

Firstly, it is a great way to exercise and stay healthy. The constant movement of my limbs and the resistance of the water provide an excellent full-body workout. Secondly, swimming allows me to escape the heat and humidity of the summer, providinga welcome respite from the blistering sun.Moreover, swimming holds special memories for me. When I was younger, my family and I would often visit the beach during the summer. The feeling of the sand between my toes and the warm waves lapping against my body createda sense of peace and tranquility. I remember playing in the shallows withmy siblings, building sand castles, and chasing after the seagulls. These memories are inextricably linked to swimming and the joy it brings.In conclusion, swimming is my favorite summer activity because it offers a refreshing way to exercise, escape the heat, and relive those cherished moments spent with my family at the beach. As the summer draws near, I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dive into the waters and embrace all that swimming has to offer.。

Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together，” (但愿人长久，千里共婵娟) wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunarcalendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops were harvested during that period.Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for a family reunion (团聚).On that night, with the beautiful moon in the sky, people enjoy the full moon, eat mooncakes, share the stories and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live far.71.
