Grade Ⅰ to ⅩBIn the new film, Avengers: Age of Ultron（复联奥创纪元), a computer which is designed to bring peace to the world decides that the simplest way to achieve peace is to kill all humans—no people, no war. Yet the computer, Ultron, finally failed, but the film is making people nervous about what the future will be like when machines become programmed with artificial intelligence (人工智能).Artificial intelligence is the ability of computers to do things that require thought. Right now computers don’t really think, they just process a lot of information very quickly. But scientists are developing new computers that will act like the human brain. They will be able to think and create, and not just follow the instructions of a human programmer.Gray Scott, an American scientist who spends his time thinking about the future, is hopeful about the future of artificial intelligence and says it will be helpful to humans. It will do most of our jobs and allow people to enjoy life. However, Elon Musk, the inventor of the Tesla electric car, says these machines with artificial intelligence are “probably more dangerous than anything else” and once they begin thinking for themselves they will be out of human control.It’s a bit frightening to think that some day, instead of machines working for us, we will be working for them; or, even worse, not working at all. By 2018, it’s said that 50 percent of American jobs will be done by computers. People with little knowledge and few skills had got most of these jobs. However, with artificially intelligent machines, even highly educated and highly skilled workers may be out of work. Engineers, doctors, and even scientists may find themselves jobless.In 19th century England, there was a group called the Luddites. They were textile(纺织的) workers whose jobs had been replaced by machines. They destroyed the machines in hopes of getting their jobs back. It didn’t work. Technology moved forward, as it always does, and people had to adapt (适应).Perhaps one day we will have to use our “real’ intelligence to make sure a machine’s ‘artificial’ intelligence doesn’t lose control and cause more harm than good.33.What is artificial intelligence?A. A kind of new computer.B. A group of smart people.C. The ability of computers to do things that need thought.D. The ability of humans to do things that require thought.34.The workers destroyed the machines in 19th century England because ______.A. they were paid littleB. they hoped to get more moneyC. machines broke down from time to timeD. machines took away their jobs35.What can we know from the passage?A. People all believe that artificial intelligence is harmless to the world.B. Elon Musk warned the public of the possible danger that artificial intelligence might bring.C. Gray Scott doesn’t think artificial intelligence is helpful to humans.D.Nobody with knowledge and skills will be out of jobs in the future.36.What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Computers can think like people.B. Machines with artificial intelligence will control the world.C. People will control the machines with artificial intelligence.D. Artificial intelligence makes people nervous.CThere are no signs of little green men on Mars. But new discoveries offer a bit more hope that some forms of life existed there in the past—and perhaps is still there at present. Methane(甲烷) and water have been found on the red planet. They both show the possibility of life.According to a new report, the Mars rover Curiosity (好奇号火星探测器) has checked some methane in the air. This kind of gas is also found in Earth’s atmosphere (大气层). It comes from animal and plant life, and from the environment itself. If there’s methane in Mars’s atmosphere, where is it from? Scientists are not sure. But it marks a big change. In September 2013, Curiosity found there was almost no methane in the Martian air. Just months later, however, the rover picked up a bit of this kind of gas.“It surprised us,” says Christopher Webster in California. He is the lead scientist for the instrument on the rover that checks methane. Webster says, “Every time we looked there was methane. But finding out what’s responsible for methane is really important.”The discovery of water on Mars is nothing new. For about ten years, scientists have had facts that it appeared on the surface of the planet millions of years ago. But according to another new report from Curiosity, while the surface water on Mars seems to be long gone, there’s a lot more of it left than most people realize.But where there is (or was) water, there could be (or could have been) life.( )37.

Chances of working on MarsDThe main reason I was a littl e nervous to go to Inner Mongolia was that I didn’t really know what to expect. However, I was interested in the horse riding, archery and delicious food that I had heard about.Also, my friend and I would be travelling there and sleeping in a traditional Mongolian yurt with complete strangers. I was worried about this new and difficult experience.As soon as we got to the grasslands after our long five-hour journey by car, we were greeted with steaming bowls of hearty Mongolian noodles—just what we needed to get us in the mood to explore. We took a walk around the grasslands and were surprised—not only by their beauty, but also by the strong winds that blew dirt into our hair and nearly knocked us off our feet.Before long, it was time to go horse riding. I was worried because it was the first time I had ever ridden a horse. I didn’t need to worry, though—we were all beginners but the horses made it very easy for us. However, they did have a habit of turning around and going the other way for no reason!In the evening, we ate another simple, delicious meal of roast lamb. Afterwards, we had a strange task—to collect dung(粪便) to make a fire. In the end, we had a great time around the campfire that evening, listening to music and sharing stories of our day with strangers. That was the most exciting part of our trip.Then we went to sleep in our yurt. Because we were in the grasslands, the temperature dropped sharply at night to around zero, so we felt cold throughout the night even though six other people were sleeping with us.The next day we woke up, still feeling tired, and headed back to Hohhot, capital of Inner Mongolia autonomous region. We really loved the nice hotel room we slept in that night and the shower that washed the dirt out of my hair. However, w e didn’t regret having the adventure inthe Inner Mongolian grasslands.41.
