22、 The fact that over 1.24 million people lose their lives each year in road accidents is a horrifying statistic that could soon be prevented. It should be of no surprise to understand that the autonomous vehicle industry is predicted to be worth $2.6 trillion a year within 15 years.
What's the future of personal transportation? Well, you'll likely be spending a lot less time behind the wheel, for one. The rise of self-driving cars means that some scenes out of science-fiction flicks（电影）（think Total Recall or I, Robot）are now reality—and even more will be available soon.
Cars today already include many semi-autonomous features, like assisted parking and self-braking systems. And completely autonomous vehicles—able to operate without human control—are rapidly becoming more of a reality. You're probably familiar with Google's version, which has made headlines with its Google Chauffeur software, which the company hopes to bring to market by 2020.
The pros of autonomous cars are many. "The sensors in a self-driving car are always observing, are not affected by the state of the driver（sleepy, angry, etc.）, and can scan in multiple directions simultaneously（同时地）," says Dr. Dominique Freckmann, an automotive engineering manager at TE Connectivity, "Autonomous driving is a key aspect of the industry's drive toward safer roadways."
"Recent NHTSA research shows that approximately 94 percent of accidents are caused by human error," adds Alan Amici, a vice president of automotive engineering at TE. "Cars with advanced safety features and eventually, self-driving cars, can significantly reduce the number of collisions. The impact of this innovation can be far-reaching, including reduced demand on emergency response systems and reduced auto insurance and health care costs."
【1】What is the author's attitude towards the autonomous vehicle industry?
A.Positive. B.Disapproving.
C.Uncaring. D.Doubtful.
【2】Why is Google Chauffeur software given as an example here?
A.Because people believe Google will sell it in 2020.
B.Because it is the most famous software of the company.
C.Because people are all familiar with the famous software.
D.Because it shows completely autonomous vehicles will be true.
【3】Which is the main reason why Alan Amici favors self-driving?
A.Self-driving will cost less than now.
B.People will easily save a lot of time.
C.Self-driving will be safer than now.
D.People will rely more on auto insurance.
【4】What is the author's purpose of writing the text?
A.To show his adoration of self-driving cars.
B.To predict the future of personal transportation.
C.To prevent so many road accidents caused by driving.
D.To introduce the benefits of autonomous vehicle industry.
23、While ChatGPT successfully answered a variety of questions raised by testers, some responses were noticeably off. In fact, Stack Overflow — a Q&A website for coders and programmers — didn’t allow users to share information from ChatGPT, saying that it’s “harmful to the site and to users who are asking or looking for correct answers.”
Beyond the issue of spreading incorrect information, the tool could also be used to explain problematic thoughts, and as with all AI tools, spread biases(偏见) based on the pool of data on which it’s trained. Typing something involving a CEO, for example, could prompt(激起) a response assuming that the individual is white and male, for example.
“While we’ve made efforts to make the model refuse unsuitable requests, it will sometimes respond to harmful instructions or exhibit biased behavior,” OpenAI, the company that created ChatGPT, said on its website. “We’re using the Moderation API to warn or stop certain types of unsafe content, but it still has some false negatives and positives for now. We’re eager to collect user feedback(反馈) to aid our ongoing work to improve this system.”
Still, Lian Jye Su, a research director at market research company ABI Research, warns the chatbot is operating “without understanding the context of the language.”
“It is very easy for ChatGPT to give plausible-sounding(听起来合理) but incorrect or senseless answers,” he said. “It guessed when it was supposed to explain and sometimes responded to harmful instructions or exhibited biased behavior. It also lacks regional and country-specific understanding.”
While ChatGPT is free, it does put a limit on the number of questions a user can raise before having to pay. When Elon Musk, a co-founder of OpenAI, recently asked Altman on Twitter about the average cost per ChatGPT chat, Altman said: “We will have to monetize(货币化) it somehow at some point; the compute costs are eye-watering.”
【1】Why does the author mention Stack Overflow?
A．To show how narrow-minded it is.
B．To illustrate the negative influence of ChatGPT.
C．To reveal the competition it has with ChatGPT.
D．To indicate ChatGPT’s strong ability in problem solving.
【2】What is the 3 paragraph mainly about?
A．The efforts OpenAI make for improvement.
B．The reason for the use of Moderation API.
C．The problem OpenAI is now facing.
D．The success in solving OpenAI’s problem.
【3】Why does ChatGPT have problems?
A．It does not understand human language.
B．It mainly works through guessing.
C．It cannot respond properly based on contexts.
D．It holds bias on some specific regions.
【4】What does the word “eye-watering” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A．extremely high
B．very harmful
C．quite necessary
D．too average

Despite his skepticism, Louganis continued to meet with Lutu."He never asked for anything," said Louganis." He just wanted to know if I was okay and that I was happy."
