But in Lenwood Haddock’s case, being blind works to his advantage. His trained, sensitive hands are acutely aware of every step of the process. Since beginning his craft in 1986, Lenwood has woven about 145, 000 perfect hammocks.Lenwood lost his sight in 1973, at age 18, during a hunting accident. "My whole working career has been blind, he says. He first found a job as a woodworker, but when that organization closed,the North Carolina Division of Services for the Blind connected him with Hatteras Hammocks. On his first day of work,"I did a total of one hammock, " Lenwood recalls, laughing. " And then I came home and lay down to sleep. I lift weights, but I wasn't as tough as I thought until I started weavingIt takes a lot of energy, and you're standing up all day.In time, however, Lenwood found he had a knack(窍门) for the job. At first he worked on-site at the company, but after a year Lenwood moved his operation to the home workshop where he had worked for 10 years during his woodworking days.There, he creates dozens of hammocks each week from ropes in a variety of sizes. One day, he realized the step counter on his phone recorded him walking eight miles without ever leaving his shop.The process of weaving a hammock involves making and catching hundreds of loops(环). A single missed stitch (织针) creates a hole that can widen and make the hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use. Experienced weavers miss loops sometimes, but to his company’s knowledge,Lenwood has never turned in a hammock with even one dropped stitch. Lenwood's skilled fingers are quick to catch and fix any mistakes. More importantly, he has a strong sense of responsibility.4.Why did Lenwood stop doing his first job?A. He was not skilled at doing woodworkB. The company didn’t produce hammocksC.It was for people with good eyesight only.D.The company failed to go on with its business5. It can be learned from the passage that Lenwood________.A. has been blind all through his lifeB. was born in the 1950s with good eyesightC. used to work as a hunter to support his familyD. has worked as a hammock weaver for 10 years6. What do we know about Lenwood from the 4th paragraph?A. He moved very often while he was working on a hammockB. He had to make different ropes before he wove a hammockC. He had to stay 8 miles away from the worksite to complete itD. He needed ropes of about 8 miles long to complete a hammock7.What’s the main reason for Lenwood's perfect job?A. He is highly responsibleB. He is hard-workingC. He is very skilled with his handsD. He is very experienced in weavingCAsian elephants are an endangered species. Their numbers sit somewhere between 39.000- 44,000 spread across the vast continent- though almost half are located in India.The main threat facing Indian elephants, like all Asian elephants is loss of habitat. which then results in human-elephant conflict. In South Asia, an ever-increasing human population has led to much illegal occupation of elephant habitat. Many construction projects like roads and railway racks also break habitat into separate areas. Unable to mix with other groups, hey run the risk of reproducing. Habitat loss also forces elephants into farmers' fields for food. Once a farmer's crops are destroyed, a conflict between humankind and the elephant is unavoidable.Even where suitable habitat exists, poaching remains a threat to elephants in many areas. In 1989, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora(CIT ES) banned the international trade in ivory(象牙). However, there are still some ivory marketsin a number of countries which fuel an illegal international trade. Although most of this ivory comes from poaching of African elephants, Asian elephants are also poached for their ivory, as well as for their skin.Catching wild elephants has become another threat to some wild populations, seriously reducing some numbers. Men would catch elephants to live with them and carry their heavy loads. India, Vietnam and Myanmar have banned catching elephants in order to protect their wild groups but in some countries elephants are still caught each year for tourist industries. Tourists pay to ride the animals to the scenic spots to have their pictures taken.Why are their numbers becoming so desperate? It is time we humans should pause and reflect.8. Which is the direct cause of human-elephant conflict?A. The loss of their habitatB. The construction of new roadsC. The failure of their reproductionD. The increase of human population9. What does the underlined word"poaching"in Paragraph 3 mean?A. AgingB. Stealing.C.illegally huntD. Fiercely fighting10. Why do people catch wild elephants?A.To increase their numbersB. For industrial researchC. To watch over their homesD. For family use and income11. What's the best title of the text?A.Reflection on Ivory TradeB. Asian Elephants Are in DangerC. Effects of Protecting ElephantsD. Indian Faces Elephant ProblemsDThere is an old joke among pilots that says the ideal flight crew is a computer, a pilot and a dog.The computers job is to fly the plane. The pilot is there to feed the dog. And the dog's job is to bite the pilot if he tries to touch the computer.Handing complex tasks to computers is not new. But recent progress in machine learning,a sub-field of artificial intelligence (AI), has enabled computers to handle many problems which were previously beyond them. The result has been an AI boom, with computers moving into every thing from medical diagnosis and insurance to self-driving cars.There is a problem, though. Machine learning works by giving computers the ability to train themselves, which adapts their programming to the task at hand. People struggle to understand exactly how those self-written programs do what they do. When algorithms (iz915) are doing small tasks such as playing chess or recommending a film to watch, this"black box "problem can be safely ignored. When they are deciding who gets a loan, or how to drive a car through a crowded city, it is potentially harmful. And when things go wrong, then customers, regulators and the courts will want to know why.For some people this is a reason to hold back AI. France's digital-economy minister, Mounir Mahjoubi, has said that the government should not use any algorithm whose decisions cannot be explained. But that is an overreaction. The difficulties caused by clever computers are not unheard of. Society already has plenty of experience dealing with problematic black boxes; the most common are called human beings, who can't even figure out what's going on in a brain. In response to the weakness in humans, society has evolved a series of workable coping mechanisms, called laws, rules and regulations. Many of these can be applied to machines as well.Humans have worked with computers on complex tasks for decades. One lesson from such applications is that, wherever possible, people should supervise( Hi x) the machines. In that joke, pilots are vital in case something happens that is beyond the scope of artificial intelligence. As computers spread, companies and governments should ensure the first line of defence is a real person who can overrule the algorithms if necessary.12. Why is the joke mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. To make people laughB. To foresee future aeroplane industryC. To introduce the latest modelD. To raise people's awareness of computers performing complex task.13. What has caused the increasing application of computers in various fields?A. The shortage of labor forceB.The rise of artificial intelligenceC. The encouragement of governmentD. The development of medical economy14. Why are some people opposed to AI?A. Black boxes always go wrongB. Laws forbid machine learning.C.They don’t understand how AI worksputers are trying to replace human beings15. What does the author suggest people do with AI?A. Stop panic and welcome AIB. Reduce the usage of algorithmsC. Supervise AI wherever possibleD. Program machines by copying their own behavior第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
