For example, mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences, but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space, you wouldnt think thats the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines, if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to do sufficient testing and theyve produced a system that will break some kind of taboo（禁忌）.One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when faced with an unusual situation.If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has the opportunity to stop, send out beeps （嘟嘟声）, and ask for directions from a human. If we humans arent quite sure about a decision, we go and ask somebody else.The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe is moral, and how to create a set of ethical （道德伦理的） rules But if we come up with an answer, robots could be good for humanity.8. How do robots learn human values？A. By interacting with humans in everyday life situationsB. By picking up patterns from massive data on human behaviorC. By following the daily routines of civilized human beingsD. By imitating the behavior of properly brought-up human beings9. What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation？A. Keep a distance from possible dangersB. Do enough testing before taking actionC. Start its built-in alarm system at onceD. Stop to get advice from a human being10. What is the most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code？A. Determine what is moral and ethicalB. Design some large-scale experimentsC. Set rules for man-machine interactionD. Develop a more sophisticated program【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A【解析】【分析】本文属于说明文。文章开篇提到人工智能（AI）未来潜在的危险是可以通过编程避免的，由此展开对于如何避免人工智能（AI）的潜在危险的论述。笔者借由专家的角度表示了人类在为人工智能输入指令、甚至情感和价值观的时候，需要慎重。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第六段中的“Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior”可知，机器人通过从人类行为的海量数据中提取模式来学习人类的价值观，故选B。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据Unusual situation定位到第九段，根据文章第九段中的“If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave，it has the opportunity to stop，send out beeps（嘟嘟声），and ask for directions from a human”可知，一个编程良好的机器人面对异常情况时会停下来想向人类寻求帮助。分析选项可知D符合题意，故选D。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe is moral， and how to create a set of ethical （道德伦理的） rules But if we come up with an answer， robots could be good for humanity”But if we come up with an answer，robots could be good for humanity可知，当我们把人类的价值变成可编程的代码时，最难做的是确定什么是道德和伦理。故选A。【点睛】细节题的破解一般采用寻读法，即先看试题，再读文章。对有关信息进行快速定位，再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比，有根有据地排除干扰项，选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率，节省了宝贵的时间。如第2小题属于细节理解题。先看题干问“当面临一个非常规情景时，具有良好编程的机器人会怎么办”根据Unusual situation定位到第九段根据文章第九段中的“If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave，it has the opportunity to stop，send out beeps（嘟嘟声），and ask for directions from a human”可知，一个编程良好的机器人面对异常情况时会停下来想向人类寻求帮助。分析选项可知D符合题意，故选D。寻读法还特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。做此类型的题目还要特别注意句子的逻辑关系。英语中有许多功能词，如：表因果关系的because, since, as等；表转折关系的but, however ,on the contrary, on the other hand等等。D3:00 pm Its Friday. Alice comes home from high school to her mother who greets her at the door. She puts her backpack on her bedroom floor. She sees that she got a text from her friend, and hurriedly texts back before getting a head start on her homework.4:15 pmAlice takes a moon cake from the kitchen that her mother has set aside for her. Her mother sits her down in the dining room to ask about Alices day. Alice tells her mother in Chinese about her math test that morning. She fails to tell her about her history class on womens rights and her modern art class, because she knows it would make her mother uncomfortable.6:30 pm Alice tells her mother in rapid Chinese that shes done her homework and mentions that there is a mandatory(强制的) school function that night which she will have to attend. She asks her if she can go over to a friends house to study in the meantime. Her mother refuses because she has arranged for a tutor to come over.7:00 pm Alice puts on a long-sleeved shirt and jeans, because she knows her mother would approve, but secretly packs a crop top(露脐装) and shorts. She empties her backpack of books and puts in her change of clothes.7:45 pm Alices mother drives her to the school and drops her off. She tells Alice that shell pick her up when the function is over. The girl tells her mother that she will call.8:00 pm Alice finds her friend. She changes to English and tells her that shell be right back. She goes into the bathroom and changes into the clothes that she brought. She now looks like all the other kids at the dance. She deeply loves her mother and hates lying to her, but she knows that is the only way shell understand. Avoiding the issue entirely by just “slipping out” is the only way she feels she can maintain her loving relationship at home, but still fit in with her schoolmates, who are themselves doing something that is supported by their parents.In todays world, scenarios (情况) like this one are more than frequent. Theyre everywhere. Being born or living in a different country than the country your parents grew up in has become more and more regular. In the U.S. where the word “immigration” (移民) is often on peoples lips, nearly one-quarter of the 70.9 million children and adolescents under 17 in 2020 had at least one immigrant parent. The untold story of immigration is the stress put on the adolescents who need to live in two different worlds at the same time.In the home, these teenagers are brought up within the traditional culture of their parents. They eat sushi, andxiao long bao, but even more than that, theyre brought up with the ideas and values of their parents cultures. Even the most independent teenager is influenced by his or her parents. However, as soon as these teenagers leave their houses, these values and expectations begin to lose their meaning. Instead of it being something that unites them with others, these traditional principles create cultural boundaries between teenagers. Seeing this and desperately wanting to connect with others, teenagers cast off(抛弃)their identities and roles in the home and put on a new culture and set of values.These teenagers change themselves many times a day to adapt to these different worlds. Of course this isnt something that they necessarily have to do. But following what their parents want and what their friends expect gives them the ability to feel accepted both in their home and in their school. In most cases, these teenagers are not pretending to be something theyre not. Rather, they are simply willing to play double roles in the drama of their life, adding an extra layer of stress to their teenage years.11. What does Alice probably do between 3:00 pm and 4:15 pm?A. She keeps texting her friend.B. She prepares for supper.C. She does her homework.D. She tidies her bedroom.12. What can be inferred (推断) from Alices story?A. Her social life is limited by her mother.B. She is forbidden to speak Chinese at school.C. Her mother is interested in history and art.D. Her mother doesnt seem to care much about her studies.13.

According to the passage, what do you think of the life of teenagers from immigrant families?A. Colorful.B. Embarrassing.C. Traditional.D. Independent.15.
