26、For as long as humans have appeared, we have been the most intelligent species(种类)on Earth. Monkeys know how to use simple tools. Elephants can be taught how to count. But things like art, literature(文学), the Internet, and space travel have only been made possible by the amazing intelligence of humans. And yet, there are some who believe that we can create machines that can think and feel just like we do. Artificial intelligence(人工智能), or AI, is defined(定义为)by Merriam-Webster as “the capability of a machine to imitate intelligent human behavior”.
AI is around us every day. From Apple’s voice-activated assistant Siri to the software algorithms(算法)that shipping companies use to deal with deliveries(投递), AI is very much a part of our lives.
But why do we put so much effort into creating machines that can think the way we do? For one thing, AI can make our lives much easier. Imagine being able to be in a car, tell it your destination, and sit back in comfort as the AI-guided self-driving car takes you there. We’re already getting there—Changsha became the first city in China to roll out self-driving taxis in April 2020.
However, there are risks. What if we somehow produced an artificial intelligence that was smarter than us? How would it behave toward us? These are the kinds of difficult questions that AI researchers ask themselves all the time.
Apart from the risks, it is already clear that AI is here to stay. Only time will tell if it will lead us into a new age of prosperity(繁荣), or be our end.
【1】The first paragraph is written to ________.
A.explain how animals are intelligent
B.show what fields AI can be used in
C.prove the possibility of space travel
D.explain how intelligence makes humans special
【2】Which of the following might not take advantage of AI?
A.Voice-activated assistants.
B.Software algorithms for deliveries.
C.Machines that produce goods.
D.Self-driving taxis.
【3】What is one of the risks about AI?
A.We might not be able to live without it in the future.
B.We can’t say for sure how AI will behave toward us.
C.AI will never be as smart as humans.
D.It is not easy to put AI into daily use.
【4】What does the underlined word “destination” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.An end point.
B.A name.
C.A wish
D.A feeling.
【5】What’s the writer’s attitude towards AI?
A.It will be good.
B.It will be bad.
C.It’s going to be part of our future.
D.It’s risky and horrible.
