26、   News anchors(主播) must have been reluctant to read out the following news: Xin Xiaomeng began working as the world’s first female artificial(人工的) intelligence news anchor at Xinhua News Agency on Sunday, three months after a male robot joined the profession.

Unlike previous news robots though, Xin does not read news like a cold machine; she reads it almost like a human being. The muscles on her face stretch and relax — and her reactions change as she continues reading. That’s why many news anchors were worried: Will AI replace us in the near future?

To find the answer, we have to analyze the technologies that support Xin at her job. Three key technologies are used to support Xin. First, samples of human voices are collected and synthesized (合成). This is followed by the collection and synthesis of human muscle movement samples. And third the voices and movements are married in a way that when the AI news anchor reads, the micro- electric motors behind her face move to make her expressions seem more human.

Yet we need a thorough knowledge of deep learning technology to make a robot imitate a person’s voice. The developer needs to collect tens of thousands of pieces of pronunciations, input them into the machine and match them with the text for the AI to learn and read. The process for imitating facial movements is similar. The developer has to analyze the movements of the 53 muscles in the human face, make a model set from the collected data for the AI news anchor to learn, and imitate the movements of facial muscles via programs

Both the technologies used to make Xin’s performance impressive are mature. The real difficulty lies in the third — the technology to match the pronunciations with facial movements so that Xin’s expressions vary according to the content of the news report. In fact, Xin’s expressions don’t always change according to the content. As a result, her expressions look anything but human. Actually, AI is still no match for human qualities.

【1】What does the underlined word “reluctant” in the first paragraph mean?

A.Delighted B.Unwilling

C.Confused D.Optimistic

【2】What can we infer about previous news robots?

A.They read news without expressions. B.They looked like a human being.

C.They could interview sports stars. D.They could interact with audience.

【3】From the last paragraph, we can draw a conclusion that   .

A.human news anchors should learn from AI anchors to save their jobs

B.Al anchors perform much better than human news anchors at present

C.Al news anchors won’t replace human news anchors in the near future

D.Xin Xiaomeng’s expressions vary so naturally that they are true to life

27、I’m a TV show host. One Sunday, I took my 7-year-old daughter by the sea for lunch. On arriving at the beach, I saw JoJo, a rich man in the hotel business. We sat down to chat in an open-air cafe.

Suddenly our talk was interrupted (打断) by a stranger, who politely asked permission to speak to me. Often people want to tell me something about my TV show, when I’m out on the streets.

He asked to speak to me alone, so we stood a bit away from my table. He said, “I’m James, 35 years old, father of a 7-year-old girl, who’s very sick. She needs treatment abroad. The doctors said that if she was treated in the UK, she would probably survive. But I’m poor, so can you please help me?”

Speechless, I looked at the man whose eyes were full of tears and asked how I could help. After we talked for a while, I went to sit back at the table. JoJo asked me, “What’s wrong with you? Your face changed.” I told him. JoJo was sorry for this family and said I had the means through the media to help him. Later we headed off to our destinations.

All weekend I thought about James, his daughter and his family. I even thought about doing a special TV show to raise money for this sick child.

On Monday morning I was at the office after I finished hosting my show, when my assistant said a man needed to speak to me. It was JoJo. He walked into my office. JoJo is so busy with his hotel business that I never imagined he had time to come and see me at the studios.

“Please, call the man with the sick child and tell him that I’ll pay all the money for his sick daughter’s treatment,” JoJo said, with a cheque (支票) in his hand. “I’ve been married for 35 years. I wasn’t lucky enough to have a child. I want to help this child now.” I picked up the phone to call James.

Now James’ daughter is well and living a normal life. JoJo often visit her. I’m so happy that there are so many good people on earth.

【1】Why did James ask the author for help?

A．He guessed the author knew many rich people.

B．He knew that the author was a rich person.

C．He thought the author could help him through the media.

D．He once got help from the author.

【2】Why did JoJo make up his mind to help James?

A．To support the author’s work.

B．To show his love for a child.

C．To show his sympathy for the poor.

D．To set a good example to other rich people.

【3】What is the main idea of the text?

A．Kind people are everywhere.

B．The media are powerful.

C．Famous hosts are always troubled.

D．Even the richest person is not always lucky

28、On a recent sunny day, 13,000 chickens roam over Larry Brown’s 40 windswept acres in Shiner, Texas. Some rest in the shade of a parked car. Others drink water with the cows. This all seems random, but it’s by design, part of what the $6.1 billion U.S. egg industry bets will be its next big thing: climate-friendly eggs.

These eggs, which are making their debut now on shelves for as much as $8 a dozen, are still labeled organic and animal-friendly, but they’re also from birds that live on farms using regenerative agriculture — special techniques to cultivate rich soils that can trap greenhouse gases. Such eggs could be marketed as helping to fight climate change.

“I’m excited about our progress,” says Brown, who harvests eggs for Denver-based NestFresh Eggs and is adding more cover crops that draw worms and crickets for the chickens to eat. The birds’ waste then fertilizes fields. Such improvements “allow our hens to forage for high-quality natural feed that will be good for the land, the hens, and the eggs that we supply to our customers.”

The egg industry’s push is the first major test of whether animal products from regenerative farms can become the next premium offering. In barely more than a decade, organic eggs went from being dismissed as a niche product in natural foods stores to being sold at Walmart. More recently there were similar doubts about probiotics and plant-based meats, but both have exploded into major supermarket categories. If the sustainable-egg rollout is successful, it could open the floodgates for regenerative beef, broccoli, and beyond.

Regenerative products could be a hard sell, because the concept is tough to define quickly, says Julie Stanton, associate professor of agricultural economics at Pennsylvania State University Brandywine. Such farming also brings minimal, if any, improvement to the food products (though some producers say their eggs have more protein).

The industry is betting that the same consumers paying more for premium attributes such as free-range, non-GMO, and pasture-raised eggs will embrace sustainability. Surveys show that younger generations are more concerned about climate change, and some of the success of plant- based meat can be chalked up to shoppers wanting to signal their desire to protect the environment. Young adults “really care about the planet,” says John Brunnquell, president of Egg Innovations. “They are absolutely altering the food chain beyond what I think even they understand what they’re doing.”

【1】The climate friendly eggs are produced ______.

A．at a considerably low cost

B．at the demand of regular shoppers

C．as a replacement for organic eggs

D．on specially designed farms

【2】Larry Brown is excited about his progress in ______.

A．reducing the damage of worms

B．accelerating the disposal of waste

C．creating a sustainable system

D．attracting customers to his products

【3】It can be learned from the last paragraph that young people ______.

A．are desperate to change their diet

B．are likely to buy climate-friendly eggs

C．are enthusiastic about new food

D．are amazed at environmental problems

【4】John Brunnquell would disagree with Julie Stanton over regenerative products’ ______.

A．market prospects

B．nutritional value

C．standard definition

D．moral implications

29、   We all often deal with people who complain about the failures and troubles of their daily lives. Life seems to be full of problems for them. 【1】. If there were no problems in your job, then your employer would hire a much less capable (能干的) person than you to do the things that don’t need much thought. In the business world, those who are able to solve difficult problems are the ones who are the most valuable to the employer.

【2】. The runner who trains for the mile run in the Olympics by running downhill will have no chance of winning the medal at all. The runner who trains by running uphill is far more likely to develop the speed and endurance（耐力）needed to win the medal.

Boxer Gene Tunney broke both hands in the ring. 【3】. But at that time his manager felt that he could never again punch（重击）hard enough to be the heavyweight champion. Instead, Tunney determined to become a scientific boxer and win the title as a boxer. 【4】. As a puncher, he would not have had a chance against Jack Dempsey, who was considered by many to be the hardest hitter in heavyweight history. Tunney would never have been a champion, if he had not had the problem of his broken hands.

【5】, you should smile and say, “Here’s my chance to win.”

A. Every time you are feeling down

B. It turned out to be the best thing to him
