21、Apple’s well publicized iPhone X finally went on sale in pre-orders last week. With a starting price of $ 999, the iPhone X has the highest price of any iPhone ever offered. Yet Apple says its latest smartphone has so far been “off the charts.”

One of the most-talked about features of the iPhone X is the new Face ID recognition system, which replaces the Touch ID on other Apple devices that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone. It works by projecting more than 30, 000 dots on the face of users to create a kind of map- An infrared (红外线的) camera then reads these marks to create an image that can be confirmed as having the same appearance. Apple says the system is also designed to continually learn. Each time the face is used to unlock the phone, it is supposed to note any changes, such as facial hair or the person getting older. The system can then remember the changes to keep recognizing the person over time.

A face can unlock iPhone X, but can it be fooled?

One fairly common failure was that the Face ID sometimes did not unlock the iPhone X if the user wore a pair of sunglasses. Not surprisingly, wearing any kind of disguise (化妆) ---even one covering just part of the face—caused Face ID to fail. It was found to work correctly when the user was wearing headphones or a hat.

Several attempts were made to trick Face ID into unlocking the phone with a photo of a person instead of a real face. The iPhone X was able to pass these tests by knowing the difference between a photo and a face. Wall Street Journal reporter Joanna Stern tried something a little different. She went to a mask maker and asked for a recreation of her face to see if the iPhone X would be fooled. It was not.

Apple says its research shows there is only a one in a million chance of another person being able to unlock someone else’s iPhone X with Face ID. The company has promised the system will become “the new gold standard” for all facial recognition.

【1】What does the underlined part “off the charts” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. far from satisfactory.   B. extremely successful.

C. surprisingly unpopular.   D. unbelievably disappointing.

【2】Which of the following is true of iPhone X’s Face ID system?

A. It is a hot topic worth debating.

B. It works in the same way as Touch ID.

C. It is smart enough to continue learning.

D. It can function well without an infrared camera.

【3】Under which situation can the owner unlock the iPhone X?

A. When he or she wears a hat.

B. When he or she wears a mask.

C. When he or she uses a photo.

D. When he or she wears glasses.

【4】What’s Apple’s attitude toward Face ID system?

A. Doubtful.   B. Puzzled.

C. Positive.   D. Pessimistic.

22、When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper, which said that people were burying old computers in backyards, throwing TVs into streams, and dumping (丢弃) cell phones in the garbage. This was dangerous because e-waste contains harmful chemicals that can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies and people.

Alex was really worried and decided to make it next project for WIN-the Westerly Innovations Network. Alex and six of his friends had formed this organization to help solve community problems two years before.

But what could they do about this project with e-waste? The team spent several weeks gathering information about the harmful chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose (处置) of e-waste properly and how it could be recycled. Then, they sent out a Survey and found only one in eight know what e-waste was, let alone how to properly dispose of it.

Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students, asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they collected over 9, 500 kilograms of e-waste. The next step was to set up a long-term e-waste drop-off center for the town. After some research, they’d learned that reusing is the best way to deal with electronic devices and it is seven times more efficient than recycling. So, they began learning to retrofit (翻新) computers themselves and distributed them to students who didn’t have their own. In this way, they could help students in the area and protect the environment at the same time.

For a lasting solution to e-waste, the drop-off center wasn’t enough. Laws would have to be passed. In 2016, WIN helped push for an e-waste bill in their town, which required companies that manufactured or sold electronics to take back e-waste. The bill clearly forbids the dumping of e-waste. Because of the work of WIN, more and more people, like Alex and his team, are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s harmful garbage.”

【1】What was Alex’s worry after he read the article?

A．The littering of e-waste.

B．The recycling of plastic.

C．The change of environment.

D．At 11 p.m. on Monday.

【2】What did Alex do to start the project?

A．Set up WIN.

B．Collect information.

C．Ask friends for help.

D．The overuse of old computer.

【3】Which can best describe the way Alex and his team did their work?

A．Traditional.

B．Competitive.

C．Scientific.

D．Convenient.

【4】What message does the story convey?

A．There is no end to perfection.

B．success comes through failure.

C．Every positive attitude has a reward.

D．young people can make a big difference.

23、   Computers have become so smart during the past 20 years that people don’t think twice about chatting with digital assistants like Alexa and Siri. But that required hard work from computer scientists like YoshuaBengio, Geoffrey Hinton, and Yann LeCun. They tapped into their own brainpower to make it possible for machines to learn like humans, a breakthrough now commonly known as “artificial intelligence”, or AI.

Their insights and persistence were rewarded with the Turing Award, an honor that has become known as technology industry’s version of the Nobel Prize. The award marks the latest recognition of the instrumental role that artificial intelligence will likely play in redefining the relationship between humanity and technology in the decades ahead.

Over the past 30 years, Mr. Bengio, Mr. Hinton, and Mr. LeCun have mostly worked separately on technology known as neural (神经的) networks. These are the electronic engines that power tasks such as facial and speech recognition, areas where computers have made huge improvements over the past decade. Such neural networks also are a key part of robotic systems that are automating a wide range of other human activities, including driving.

Their belief in the power of neural networks was once looked down upon. “For a long time, people thought what we were doing was nonsense,” Mr. Hinton said in an interview with The Associated Press. “They thought we were very misguided and what we were doing was a very surprising thing for apparently intelligent people to waste their time on. My message to young researchers is, don’t be put off if everyone tells you what you are doing is silly.”

While the AI revolution is raising hopes that computers will make most people’s lives more convenient and enjoyable, it’s also arousing fears that humanity eventually will be living at the mercy of machines. Mr. Bengio, Mr. Hinton, and Mr. LeCun are also concerned that AI technology might be developed into weapon systems that wipe out humanity.

But they are far more optimistic about the other prospects of AI — empowering computers to deliver more accurate warnings about floods and earthquakes, or detecting health risks, such as cancer and heart attacks, far earlier than human doctors.

【1】Why does the author mention Alexa and Siri in the first paragraph?

A.To introduce the topic of AI. B.To stress the significance of computers.

C.To distinguish between types of AI. D.To encourage the use of digital assistants.

【2】What role do neural networks play in AI?

A.They make electronic engines work. B.They match up people’s faces with voices.

C.They contribute to robotic automation. D.They enable humans to learn like machines.

【3】Why are people concerned about AI?

A.It is a total waste of money. B.It is likely to bring disasters to human beings.

C.It is a real risk to public health. D.It is ineffective in forecasting natural disasters.

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A.What Is AI? B.AI Scientists Rescuing Human Beings

C.Why Is AI Popular? D.AI Pioneers Awarded Tech’s “Nobel Prize”
