这是一篇应用文。文章回顾了2022年几个著名的人工智能研究成果。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

我们在做完形填空时，首先需要快速的浏览全文，把握文章的主旨大意；其次要学会带着问题到文中相应的地方，通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案；最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要；做此类题时，要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配，在平时多积累一些固定搭配。

4~7.【答案】B、C、A、D【解析】（1）词义猜测题。根据文章第一段Moving

to

a

foreign

country

is

an

amazing，life-changing

experience.It's

an

opportunity

to

meet

new

people，make

yourself

completely

involved

in

a

different

culture

and

possibly

learn

another

language.However，before

embarking

on

such

an

adventure，there

are

some

practical

decisions

that

need

to

be

made.One

such

decision

is

choosing

where

to

live.（移居国外是一次令人惊奇的、改变人生的经历。这是一个认识新朋友的机会，让自己完全融入到不同的文化中，可能还可以学习另一种语言。然而，在______这样的冒险之前，有一些实际的决定需要做出。其中一个决定就是选择住在哪里。）可知，"embarkingon" 意为"开始，着手"。A.Remarkingon.正在评论；B.Settingabout.开始；C.Dependingon.依靠；D.Writing

down.写下。故选B。

（2）细节理解题。根据文章第二段For

me，choosing

to

live

with

a

French

family

was

the

best

choice

I

made，and

here

are

the

reasons.（对我来说，选择和一个法国家庭一起生活是我做的最好的选择，以下是原因。）可知作者搬去国外的时候，选择住在寄宿家庭，故选C。

（3）细节理解题。根据文章第四段Moreover，living

with

French

people

has

been

beneficial

to

helping

me

improve

my

language

skills.（此外，与法国人生活在一起也有助于提高我的语言技能。）可知，和法国人生活的好处是提高自己的法语技能，故选A。

（4）写作手法题。根据文章第二段For

me，choosing

to

live

with

a

French

family

was

the

best

choice

I

made，and

here

are

the

reasons.（对我来说，选择和一个法国家庭一起生活是我做的最好的选择，以下是原因。）可知，作者主要通过列出一些详细的原因来写这篇文章，故选D。

这是一篇说明文。作者通过自己在法国期间住在寄宿家庭的经历，说明了选择住在寄宿家庭的优势。

阅读理解解题步骤：首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意，因为阅读理解题一般没有标题，所以，速读全文，抓住中心主旨很有必要，在速读的过程中，应尽可能多地捕获信息材料；其次细读题材，各个击破，掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读每篇材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息，要善于抓住每段的主题句，阅读时，要有较强的针对性，对于捕获到的信息，要做认真分析，仔细推敲，理解透彻，只有这样，针对题目要求，才能做到稳、准。

8~11.【答案】B、D、C、D【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段Aperson'sscalemassisacombinationofmuscle       ，fat，bone，blood，andeventheairthatwecarryinourlungs         ，"hesays. （他说："一个人的体重是肌肉、脂肪、骨骼、血液，甚至我们肺部携带的空气的组合"。）可知，你的体重受多种因素影响，故选B。

（2）推理判断题。根据第三段Whenyoustarttochangeyourbodycompositionwithyourworkouts-bybuildingmoremusclemassanddecreasingyourbodyfat-yourscaleweightmayincrease                       ，whileyourbodyfatpercentagemaydecrease.Thesechangeshappenoverweeksandmonths            （nothoursordays   ）

sothescaleisuselesswhentrackingthem.       （当你开始通过锻炼来改变你的身体成分，通过增加肌肉质量和减少身体脂肪，你的体重秤可能会增加，而你的身体脂肪百分比可能会减少。这些变化会持续数周或数月（而不是数小时或数天），因此在跟踪这些变化时，量表是无用的。）可知，在坚持锻炼并进行健康饮食后，你的身体组成会发生变化，故选D。

（3）数字计算题。根据倒数第二段Watermakesupapproximately

65

to

90

percentofaperson'sweight       ，andvariationinwatercontentofthehumanbodycanmovethescalebytenpoundsormorefromdaytoday.                     （水大约占一个人体重的65%到90%，人体含水量的变化每天都会使体重秤移动10磅或更多。）可知，体重150磅的人体内含水量应在150×65%

=

97.5磅至150

x90%

=

135磅之间，则选项C.100pounds，符合题意，故选C。

（4）标题归纳题。根据第一段Have

you

been

exercising

and

eating

clean，but

when

you

step

on

the

scale，it

says

you've

gained

a

few

pounds？

"That's

normal，and

it

doesn't

mean

that

your

workouts

are

not

effective，"

says

Jeffrey

A.Dolgan，an

exercise

physiologist

in

Miami

Beach，Florida.（你是否一直在锻炼，饮食干净，但当你站在体重秤上时，它显示你增加了几磅？"这很正常，并不意味着你的锻炼没有效果，"佛罗里达州迈阿密海滩的运动生理学家Jeffrey

A.Dolgan说。）可知，文章主要分析了坚持锻炼并进行健康饮食后体重不降反增的原因。D.Why

does

my

workout

cause

weight

gain？（为什么我锻炼后体重反而增加了？）适合做本文的最佳标题，故选D。

本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在坚持锻炼并进行健康饮食的同时，体重不降反增的原因。

做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。

12~15.【答案】C、A、D、C【解析】（1）C.目的意图题。根据文章第一段Beethovenisundoubtedlyoneofthegreatestmusicians.Hecompleted722musicalworks.Unfortunately,themasterdiedwhilestillworkingonhis10thSymphony（交响曲）.Now,ateamofmusiciansandscientistshaveusedartificialintelligence（AI）tocompletetheartist'sfinalcomposition.（贝多芬无疑是最伟大的音乐家之一。他完成了722部音乐作品。不幸的是，这位大师在创作他的第十交响曲时去世了。现在，一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能（AI）完成了这位艺术家的最终作品。）和文章第二段Dr.Matthiasfirstcameupwiththeideatocompletethecompositionin2019.（马蒂亚斯博士在2019年首次提出了完成这一合成的想法。）可知，第一段的主要目的是为了介绍一种创新的音乐创作方法。故选C。
