25、   The father of the modern cartoon was the English artist William Hogarth(1697-1764）.There were others before him who made drawings that made fun of silly customs and behaviour.But Hogarth really started the art of cartooning .He was interested in human nature ,in the character and attitudes of people. His drawings made fun of universal（追的，影响全体的） situations and problems such as drunkenness, spoiled youngsters, crimes of all sorts,and even crooked elections. The work of Hogarth was continued by another Englishman. Thomas Rowlandson. His cartoons were printed in large quantities and sent all over England.He exaggerated human features to make people look ridiculous, which is known as caricature （漫画，讽刺画）. Early in the 19th Century， European journals, which were similar to many modern magazines, began to print cartoons that expressed opinions on events of the day, and this was the beginning of political cartoons which appear in our daily newspapers today. One of the greatest political cartoonists was the Frenchman Honore Daumier (1808-1879). He made bitter attacks on people in power and corruption in government. In fact ,he was sent to jail for six months because of a cartoon he drew that make fun of the king.

26、

The Apple Watch in 2018 is more than just a time-telling wearable watch that can inform you when you have a message and count your calories (卡路里) as you walk around; it’s changing into a kind of medical tool. Not only can it take an ECG (心电图) to possibly detect (察觉) heartbeat, it can also detect if you’ve fallen down, and then call 911.

It’s an advantage that will be helpful to most people. According to a research on aging, more than one-third of elderly people over 65 fall down once a year. If the wearable detects that someone has wiped out, it can call 911 when the person doesn’t respond. For users over 65, Apple automatically (自动地) makes use of this advantage.

To create the system for detecting falls, Apple got their data from real-world and unplanned interactions between humans and the ground. These interactions are all caused by falling down.

To do that, they gathered data from people wearing Apple Watches and receiving medical treatment for their movement in a hospital, and friends and family of Apple employees. That study involved more than 2,500 people and finally included more than 250,000 days of data. The data came from real falls—like a fall off a ladder, a trip on a walk, or just a fall while getting dressed.

“We learned that with falls, there’s this repeatable movement pattern that happens,” Jeff Williams, Apple’s chief operating officer, said in September when announcing the advantage. “For example, when you trip, your body will naturally fall forward, and your arms will go out naturally to support yourself. However, if you slip, there’s a natural upward movement of the arms.”

The sensors (传感器) in the watch can measure the flight of your wrist (手腕) through space when a fall is happening.

There’s one part in the watch, which is now more power saving— an important point, since Apple needs it to be powered on to watch for falls carefully throughout the course of the day.

It’s important to know, too, that a call for SOS won’t be made if you don’t have the cellular version (蜂窝网络版本) of the watch and you’re far away from your phone. In other words, if you go for a run and hope that the advantage of the Apple Watch will work, bring your phone with you, too.

【1】The phrase “wiped out” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

A．felt tired

B．fell down

C．got lost

D．passed by

【2】What is the key to creating the system for detecting falls very exactly?

A．Apple has many aging users.

B．Apple makes excellent sensors.

C．Apple collects a number of data of real falls.

D．Apple understands people’s needs and interest.

【3】Elderly people wear Apple Watch because ________.

A．it looks cool with power saving

B．it’s full of information and data

C．it’s convenient to wear it

D．it’s very smart and helpful

27、   Artificial intelligence (AI) products are not new. However，researchers have been working to improve the technology. Now virtual (虚拟的) assistants, like Siri and Alexa, can have short conversations with us. AlphaGo taught itself to play Go and became better than the top human players.

Now an AI system has been tasked with passing a multiple-choice exam. The goal is to improve machines' language understanding and logic with so-called computer vision (计算机视觉).

A system named Aristo was developed by the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, a lab in the United States city of Seattle. It recently passed an eighth-grade science exam taken by many US students. The New York Times reported. It correctly answered more than 90 percent of the questions. Then it was given a twelfth-grade exam. It scored more than 80 percent.

It's an example of the progress in AI development. Four years ago, 700 computer scientists tried to develop AI systems that could pass these kinds of exams. None scored higher than 60 percent.

Aristo was able to pass the exams because it can not only understand language but also use logical thinking to solve problems. For example, it can understand what a forest fire is and how it could endanger animals like squirrels or decrease the food supply they need.

The system used BERT, a kind of neural network technology developed by Google, to answer the questions. BERT has "read" thousands of English articles. If it looks at a sentence with a missing word, it can correctly guess what the word is. With BERT's help, Aristo "read' many multiple-choice questions and answers. Over time, it was able to find logical patterns on its own.

"It may still be in the earliest stages," said Jingjing Liu, a Microsoft researcher who has been working on similar technologies. "We can't compare this technology to real human students and their ability to reason."

However, Aristo's success means that AI systems are getting better at understanding users, and we might see improved search engines and hospital databases in the near future.

【1】What does the underlined word "it" refer to in paragraph 3?

A．The city of Seattle

B．Aristo

C．A lab in Seattle

D．The Allen Institute

【2】What can we know about Aristo from its exam results?

A．It was smarter than most US students.

B．It could only deal with science questions.

C．It was best at understanding English.

D．It did better than other AI systems in similar tasks.

【3】What do paragraphs 3 to 8 talk about?

A．How Aristo teaches itself.

B．How Aristo reads English articles

C．How Aristo is developed.

D．How difficult it was to design Aristo

【4】What can we learn from Jingjing Liu's words?

A．AI will soon replace humans in many tasks.

B．Aristo still cannot compare to human reasoning skills.

C．Humans can't live without Al in the future.

D．Aristo performs better with a larger database.

28、语篇填词

Poverty is a big problem in many places. People in Ningxia used to lead a p【1】 life. But China has done a good j【2】 of dealing with it. The TV series Minning Town gets unexpected popularity and proves how powerful Chinese people are.

The name Minning is short for Fujian(Min)and Ningxia(Ning). Since the work started, Fujian has sent 183 officials and around 2,000 experts inscience and technology, education and medical care to Ningxia. In 2020, the per capital yearly disposable income (人均年可支配收入) of its people reached nearly 15,000 yuan.
