Just a few months ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas.
I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register, I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank­you note for helping me. Soon afterward，I received a Christmas present from them.Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
Months later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning.In the late afternoon I returned to m y car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead.Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford Dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？”I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment；so when I got home，I wrote them a note to say thanks.I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you”—two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.

William Trubridge is a freediver, which means he takes one deep breath and swims down into the sea as deep as he can possibly go. William is a 15－time world record holder and the freediving world champion. In
2010, he became the first human to go down to 100 metres, and in July 2016 he reached 102 metres—all in one breath!
There are three different kinds of freediving: constant weight where the diver uses just his arms and legs; constant weight with fins(脚蹼) where the diver wears fins; and free immersion(攀绳下潜) where the diver uses a rope to help guide him on his way down and then back up. William’s an expert at constant weight.
He was born in England in 1980, and learnt to swim when he was 18 months old.
When he was still very young, his parents sold their home and bought a boat. Together, they sailed all the way to New Zealand allowing William to use the ocean as if it were his back yard. He became a very strong swimmer, and by the age of eight he could dive to 15 metres below the surface.
He has described freediving as a mental sport as much as a physical one. Before getting into the water, it is important for the diver to reach a certain mental state and force from his mind any concerns he may have. His main worries come about before he dives, not during the dive.
Once his dive starts, he swims for seven strokes(划水动作) which take him to about 15 metres. From that point, the body goes down naturally. He goes down for two minutes. His heartbeat slows down, and William says this is the most relaxed part of the dive. At the deepest point, there is a tag(标签) which he takes and sticks to his leg. He turns around and makes 33 strokes which take him towards the surface. The final ten metres is the most dangerous point as the diver’s body can run out of oxygen.
William can hold his breath for an astonishing seven minutes and 29 seconds!

Alexa is a form of artificial intelligence, or AI for short. Many people start their mornings by asking Alexa for the weather forecast or the latest news. A device(设备) that houses Alexa can also play music from your favorite playlists, keep a shopping list, order takeout food, answer questions, send voice messages and even run “smart” home controls.
Training AI systems to respond to problems with human－like intelligence—and learn from their mistakes—can take months, or even years. Consider Alexa and similar software(软件), such as Apple’s Siri. To do the tasks its human owners ask, these systems must make sense of and then respond to sentences such as, “Alexa, play my Ed Sheeran playlist” or “Siri, what is the capital of India？”
Computers can’t understand language as it is spoken by people. So AI researchers must find a way to help humans communicate with computers.
The technology used to get computers to “understand” human speech or text is known as natural language processing. By natural language, computer scientists refer to the way people naturally talk or write. To teach an AI system a task like comprehending a sentence or responding to a person’s last move in a board game, scientists need to feed it lots of examples.
AlphaGo is an AI system designed by Google that has beaten a human champion, Lee Sedol, at the strategy(策略) board game Go. To train AlphaGo, Google had to show it 30 million Go moves that people had made while playing the game. Then AlphaGo used what it learned to analyze those plays as it played against different versions(版本) of itself. During this practice, the program came up with novel moves—ones never seen in games between people.
Computers, software and devices that are powered by AI can do much more, however, than just play board games and music. And one day they could make our life much easier and much more interesting.
【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

人工智能已经进入我们的日常生活，但是训练一个人工智能系统并不是一件容易的事。

32．What does the example of Alexa show?
A．AI may replace humans one day.
B．AI is playing a role in our modern life.
C．AI has been widely used around the world.
D．AI has totally changed people’s bad habits.
B解析：推理判断题。

根据第一段中的Many people start their mornings by asking Alexa for the weather forecast...home controls.可知，人工智能已经成为我们现代生活的一部分。

A．By testing them thousands of times.
B．By teaching them almost everything.
C．By giving them quite a lot of tasks to do.
D．By providing them with large amounts of data.
D解析：细节理解题。

根据第三段的To teach an AI system a task like comprehending a sentence or responding to a person’s last move in a board game, scientists need to feed it lots of examples.可知，研究者通过向人工智能系统注入大量的数据和例子来训练它们。

34．What can we learn about AlphaGo?
A．It has become very skillful and intelligent.
B．It is the most convenient AI system.
C．It avoids making any mistakes.
D．It just follows human orders.
A解析：推理判断题。

35．What’s the author’s attitude towards AI?
A．Unconcerned. B．Worried.
