The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers smart. John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with(提出)the name artificial intelligence over 60 years ago. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as people do.An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs. They can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地). At present, Al can successfully understanding human speech, recognizie (识别)human faces, operate self-driving cars and compete in some game systems like playing Chess. However, Some people also consider(认为）AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. A famous British scientist also was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers(设计者)in the future. We need not only bright students, but also average(普通的)students. As for(对于)average students ，if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.Scientists hope to create creative(有创造力)and emotional (有感情的)AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field. （1）From Paragraph 1, we know that _.

But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车) full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.Now youre inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers is easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. Its so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest its better to shop when its quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate(故意), to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.（1）Smells from bread in the supermarket _. A . make you feel hungry and buy more foodB . draw your attention to bread onlyC . make you buy less bread than you needD . force you to leave the supermarket（2）Supermarkets dont provide baskets because _. A . supermarkets dont usually have manyB . baskets are too small to hold many productsC . its easy to go shopping with trolleysD . a trolley can hold one or two products inside（3）According to the passage, supermarkets put red stickers on products to _. A . make them look more beautifulB . make them different from cheaper onesC . make people think the stickers are for menD . make people think they could save money（4）According to the passage, toys for children are usually placed _. A . on higher shelvesB . on each shelfC . on lower shelvesD . on the back shelves（5）It can be learned from Paragraph 6 that supermarkets usually _. A . stop people lining up at the checkoutsB . close on Monday morningC . play loud and noisy music insideD . make customers feel relaxed（6）The passage is mainly about _. A . several ways supermarkets use to sell more productsB . some advice when people go shopping on the streetC . several rules that every business should followD . some advertisements that make people buy more4. （6分）阅读短文，回答问题话题体裁词数难度建议用时交通安全说明文1765分钟When the traffic lights turn red, we will stop driving a car or crossing a street. Why is red used for traffic lights instead of other colors?As we know, scattering(散射)happens when light goes through the air. For the same media(媒介), if the wavelength is long, the scattering will be short. If the wavelength is short, the scattering will be long.Of all lights we can see red has the longest wavelength, so the scattering is the weakest. That means the red travels far. In fact, it travels faster on rainy days.Using the red light can help drivers in farther areas see the lights. It helps drivers slow down or stop in time. If drivers dont see the red light until they are close, they may not be able to stop the car in time. An accident may happen. Red can also excite people. We can act more quickly when we see the color red. In a word, red lights help drivers stop in time and help prevent accidents.（1）When the traffic lights turn _, we will stop driving a car.A . redB . greenC . yellowD . dark（2）According to the passage, the scattering of the red light is the _.A . longestB . weakestC . farthestD . strongest（3）The underlined word “wavelength” in Paragraph 2 means _ in Chinese.A . 波浪B . 光波C . 波长D . 波幅（4）What can the red light help drivers do?A .

All the above.（5）Which of the following is the best title?A . Why do accidents happen?B . How does the red light travel?C . Why do we use red traffic lights?D .

Many of these places are in the Four Corners area, where the states of Arizona，Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico meet. More than 7, 000 rock art places have been found just in Utah, where the areas dry climate(气候)has helped keep the art. There are three forms of rock art. The first is petroglyphs, which are pictures carved(雕刻)into the surface of rock. A sharp(尖利的)stone may have been used as a carving tool. A heavy stone may have been used to hit the sharp stone into the surface. The second form of rock art is pictographs, which are pictures painted on the rock. The paint was made from plants and trees. The artists painted with fingers, brushes made from hair，or bird bones. The third kind of rock art is geoglyphs(峡口浮雕), which are designs made in the ground by taking away stones. Some rock art shows faces, hands, animals, and trees. Other pictures are symbols such as lines, circles, and squares. Some scientists think these symbols marked the location of water or good hunting grounds. Some think the symbols were put there during special celebrations. Others think the symbols showed the movement of planets and stars. Still others believe that they were just doodles. Some rock art may be a form of writing. Large scenes are shown on mountains. Some scenes seem to tell a story. A hunting scene may include animals and people with hunting tools. A scene with many people holding hands could mean friendship. Rock art in caves may have been a way to decorate the artists home. Some rock art in the Southwest is about 200 years old. Other rock art may be 10, 000 years old. Scientists think an ancient people called the Anasazi created the older works. They were farmers and lived in caves. （1）The writer mainly wants _. A . to introduce an ancient art formB . to describe pictures drawn on rockC . to tell the history of a certain areaD . to solve the mystery of old symbols（2）According to the passage, what are doodles probably like? A . They are carelessly written or drawn.B . They show different symbols.C . They are carefully chosen or designed.D . They have special meanings.（3）What can we learn about rock art? A . The artists were usually farmers and lived in caves.B . It requires special paint made from plants and trees.C . Most of it describes the daily life of ancient peoples.D . Utah has the largest collection of it in the Southwest.（4）What can we infer(推断)from the passage? A . Petroglyphs are the easiest to be washed away by rain.B . Artists of modern times can copy rock art rather easily.C . The works created by the Anasazi must be pictographs.D . Places like rainforests are not ideal for keeping rock art.三、 任务型阅读(本题有4小题；每小题1分，共4分) (共1题；共4分)6. （4分）阅读下面图文，简要回答下面的问题。Strathnaver Museum is situated on the north coast of Scotland .It is based in the former Parish Church of Columba in Bettyhill and opened as a museum in 1976 .Its main theme is the tragic story of the Highland Clearances .It has a room dedicated to the Clan Mackay and also tells the story of crofting life .Open April to October9am to 11 am2pm to 5pmClosed SundaysAdults 2.00Concessions 1.50Students 1.00Children 0.50Clachan, Bettyhill ,Sutherland ,KW14 7SSTel : 01641 521418E-mail : strsthnavermus ukonline.co.ukwww.strathnavermuseum. org.uk（1）Whats the name of the museum? （2）How long is the museum open in the afternoon? （3）On what day is the museum closed? （4）Who pay the most for tickets ? （5）In which country is the museum ? 四、 单词拼写(本题有10小题；每小题1分，共10分) (共1题；共10分)7. （10分）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词，首字母已给 Wendy Martin is an ordinary university student who used to love surfing the Internet and chatting with friends online.
