Many people thought a computer wasn’t supposed to be able to beat a top master at the ancient Chinese game, Weiqi, for at least another 10 years. But AlphaGo, an artificially intelligent system(人工智能系统 ) designed by Google, made it. It easily beat Lee Sedol last year, one of the best players in the world. It challenged the world’s top players to show how much progress it had made over the past few years.
In the late of May, 2017, AlphaGo appeared in China and played against 19-year-old Ke Jie in Wuzhen, China. He is No. 1 player now in the world. However, the result wasn’t out of people’s expectation. He lost the matches. Though Ke Jie tried his best and he once saw the victory just a step away, he lost his best chance when he became excited.
At the press conference(新闻发布会) after the match, Ke Jie was interviewed by the reporters. He said he had realized how powerful AlphaGo was, and it was getting perfect. When a Chinese reporter asked him in English, the reporter spoke so fast that the interpreter(口译员) couldn’t catch him. Ke Jie got kind of angry and told him that it was unnecessary for two Chinese to speak English. The reporter apologized to him and offered to ask him for a coffee.
The cat and mouse game is over, but the challenge between man and robots will still go on.
1.Which was the most probable date when Ke Jie played against AlphaGo?
A. May 5. B. May 23. C. May 18. D. May Day.
2.Why did Ke Jie get angry at the press conference?
A. Because he lost the game.
B. Because the reporter couldn’t catch the interpreter.
C. Because the reporter asked him in English.
D. Because the reporter wasn’t able to speak Chinese well.
3.According to the passage, which of the following statements is True?
A. People thought a computer could beat humans many years ago.
B. Ke Jie was expected to lose the matches.
C. Ke Jie asked the reporter for a coffee.
D. AlphaGo had great trouble winning the game last year.
4.AlphaGo is ______.
A. Ke Jie B. Lee Sedol C. a Weiqi match D. an artificially intelligent system

Many people say dolphins (海豚) are intelligent (聪明的). They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains (大脑) quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are alike in some ways. How?
Communication
Like humans, every dolphin has its own “name.” The name is a special whistle (口哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific (特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things — such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.
Play
Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods (一群), and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun — just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do. Dolphins travel together in groups known as pods.
Teamwork
Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species (种类) make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent strategy (策略) to get food. Dolphins sometimes help fishermen find food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal (向……发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins assist (协助) the men? There is an advantage for them: they get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net.
1.What does the passage NOT mention?
A.How dolphins work together as a team. B.How dolphins play games and have fun.
C.How dolphins communicate with each other. D.How dolphins move quickly through the water.
2.How does a dolphin get its “name”?
A.It gets it from its mother. B.It gets it from scientists.
C.It chooses it for itself. D.Its father gives the name to it.
3.How do dolphins communicate with each other?
A.Dolphins don’t “talk” about their feelings.
B.Dolphins “talk” to each other about many things.
C.Dolphins whistle, but they don’t use body language.
D.Dolphin conversation is easy for humans to understand.
4.Dolphins and humans are similar in many ways because they________.
① play games in groups
② plan ways to do things
③ use their brains in the same way
④ communicate their feelings to each other
A.①②③ B.②③④ C.①②④ D.①③④
5.Why do dolphins sometimes help fishermen?
A.Dolphins are kind animals. B.The dolphins are afraid of humans.
C.The dolphins can get food that way. D.The fishermen ask the dolphins for help.

Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future computers will be used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.
Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Let’s look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more.
Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go in to shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers won’t change these two habits.
1.In paragraph1 it is thought people will use computers for _______.
A. playing games, shopping and making telephone calls
B. making telephone calls, having meals and seeing films
C. seeing films, buying food, and going for holidays
D. playing games, making telephone calls and seeing the doctor
2.Paragraph 4 tells _______.
A. about the old and new ways of shopping and communicat ing

D. about future uses of computers
3.The title for this passage is _______.
A. Computers will Replace Shops and Books.
B. Computers will be Used in the Future.

Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old.
Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life.
Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.
One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant(怀孕的) woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted(试图) to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device(装置) in the mouth of the newborn baby.
The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.
Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children.
Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure(测量) the sensitivity(敏感) of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression(沮丧).
The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.
These children also were less cooperative(合作的) and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence(智力) development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.
1.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor(因素) that influences intelligence development in babies?
A.The environment. B.Mother’s sensitivity.
C.Their peers(同龄人). D.Education before birth.
2.What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories?
A.To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born.
B.To prove that babies can learn before they are born.
C.To show mothers can strongly affect intelligence development in their babies.
D.To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skills.
3.Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?
A.The children of women who did not suffer from depression.
B.The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.
C.The children of depressed but caring mothers.
D.Children with high communication abilities.
4.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth.
B.Scientific findings about how the environment has an effect on babies’ intelligence.
C.A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are five or six months old.
D.Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies.
