试题分析:本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了机器人Bina48成功地完成爱的哲学这门课程。Bina48参加讨论,作报告,参与辩论,在课堂上的表现堪称是非凡的。它的表现展示人工智能或许在某种程度上比人类更聪明,未来它被希望在教学和学习上更好地被利用。
8.推理判断题。根据第二段的句子“Bina48istheworld’sfirstsociallyadvancedrobottocompleteacollegecourse,afeathedescribedas“remarkable.”Therobottookpartinclassdiscussions,gaveapresentationwithastudentpartnerandparticipatedinadebatewithstudentsfromanotherinstitution.”可知,Bina48在课堂上参与讨论,与伙伴一起做报告,参与辩论,被描绘成为“卓越的”。因此推断它的表现是非凡的。故选A。
9.词句猜测题。根据上文“Beforebecomingastudent,Bina48appearedasaguestspeakerinBarrysclassesforseveralyears.”可知,在做学生之前,Bina48在Barry的课堂上担任客座教授好几年,因此推断他经常做演讲,故画线句句意为:一天当Bina48在Barry的课堂上演讲时,他表达了想要上大学的愿望,Barry和他的学生热情地支持他的这个愿望。故画线词词义与C项“做演讲”意义相近。故选C。
10.推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“Bina48endeduplearning“31differentversionsoflove,”saidBarry,highlightingsomeofthechallengeshumansmayfacewhenworkingartificialintelligenceinfuture.”可知,Bina48最终学习了31种不同版本的爱,强调了人类未来可能会面临的人工智能的挑战。因此推断人工智能或许在某种程度上比人类高级。故选C。
11.推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知,Barry认为未来Bina48可能会变得足够复杂,可以教授课程,他预计机器人将被更好地用于教学和学习体验,而不是完全取代教师。因此推断他认为Bina48在未来能够促进学习和教学。故选B。

试题分析:通过本文的阅读和改错,考查学生的固定搭配和时态和非谓语动词的用法、连词、冠词的区别等。
51.wait后加for考查固定搭配。固定词组waitfor等待。
52.past→passed考查谓语动词。这里应该用谓语动词的过去式形式passed,past是介词,不能独立做谓语。
53.feet→foot考查固定搭配。固定词组onfoot步行。
54.when→than考查固定搭配。固定词组nosooner…than意思是:一……就……。
55.a→the考查冠词。这里用定冠词the表特指。
56.other→another考查代词。再等30分钟,another加数词。
58.possible→possibly考查副词的用法。英语中通常用副词possibly修饰动词waste,possible是形容词。
60.lose→losing考查非谓语动词。beclosetodoing的意思是快要做某事。
考点:短文改错。

1.上下文对照,捕捉关键词。
解完型填空题时,单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的,需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照,即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此,在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力,捕捉关键词。
2.结合生活,利用常识解题。
目的考查学生的生活常识,看看学生是否善于观察生活,积累生活常识,能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。

1考查固定用法。在获取知识的过程中,每个人都常常会遇到许多问题。tendto常常,是固定用法,所以tends后加to。
2考查连词。然而,你处理这些问题的意愿,最终使你能够解决它们。所以Therefore改成However。
3考查代词。指代前面的manyproblems,是复数,所以it改成them。
4考查固定用法。介词to之后用v+ing,所以solve改成solving。
5考查宾语从句。whatyouarefacedwith.是一个宾语从句,引导词在从句中作宾语,所以which改成what。
6考查固定句型。用thereseemstobe还是thereseemtobe取决于be后面是单数还是复数,这是个倒装结构,alotofattractivethings是复数意义,所以用seem。
7考查名词单复数。例如电脑或是游戏。“游戏”是复数意义,所以用名词复数,game改成games。
8考查固定短语。believein信任,是固定短语,所以to改成in。
9考查固定用法。Though与but不能连用,所以去掉but。
10考查v+ed。v+ing修饰物,而v+ed修饰人,这里修饰人,所以embarrassing改成embarrassed。
