alike．But are they actually a good thing？Those people who are against zoos would argue that animals often suffer（遭受痛苦）physically and mentally by being enclose'd．Even the best man made environments can't come close to matching the space，diversity （多样性），and freedom that animals have in their natural homes．This causes many zoo animals to become sick．Catching animals in the wild also causes much suffering by separating families．Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally．For example，ocean parksoften force dolphins and whales to perform．These sea animals dolphin may die years earlier than their wild relatives．On the other hand，by bringing people and animals together，zoos can educate the public about animal protection and encourage people to save animals and their homes．Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated in circuses，or pets which have been given up and no longer wante D．Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illness．circusOne of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding （繁衍）programs，especially for endangered species （物种）．In the wild，some of the species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding，and they might also be hurt or even killed by people．A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in a safe environment．In addition，as numbers of some wild species drop，there is an increased danger of populations becoming too genetically（基因上）similar．Breeding programs provide a safeguard：zoo bred animals can be put into the wild to increase genetic diversity．However，those people who are against zoos say that many zoo bred animals are not put back intothe wild．A lot of animals are sold not only to other zoos but also to circuses in the US or wild parks inSouth Africa，where some people are willing to pay a lot of money for the chance to kill a helplessanimal．Often，these animals are familiar with humans and have very little chance of escaping．So，are zoos good for animals or not？Perhaps it all depends on how well zoos are managed，and the benefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects．However，it is understandable thatmany people believe enclosing animals for any reason is simply wrong．27．According to Paragraph 2，some sea animals may die earlier than their wild relatives becauseA．they were born in the ocean parkB．they don't have enough living spaceC．they are forced to behave unnaturallyD．they suffer from family separation28．What is the main purpose of international breeding program？A．To increase genetic diversity．B．To protect mistreated animals．C．To free enclosed animals．D．To do research on animal behavior．29．What，s the author，s opinion of zoos？A．He doubts the value of zoos．B．He is a true supporter of all kinds of zoos．C．He is against the idea of having zoos aroundD．He sees the importance of the zoo management．17．（8分）The Rise of Artificial Intelligence （AI；人工智能）discusses AI technology and how it might affect humans in the future，but the future is already here．In 2011，America's Favorite Quiz Show held a competition between two men and an IBM computer named"Watson"．IBM describes Watson as"a technology that understands all forms of data and also reasons and learns．"Both men thought they could beat Watson．Instead，the computer and its Artificial Intelligence soundly bested both of the human beings．ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MADE SIMPLEArtificial Intelligence generally refers to machines with human like intelligence，such as problem solving and learning．In order to be considered AI，the computer must pass the Turing test，named after Alan Turing，a British mathematician who worked with the first computers．In the 1950s，Turing published a paper questioning whether a computer could beused to trick humans into believing they were interacting（互动）with an actual human being．He found that if 30% of humans who interacted with a"machine"believed they were actually interacting with a human being，then the computer could be considered as AI．A simple example of AI is Apple，s Siri．Ask Siri to do anything，from calling a friend to booking a dinner table，and Siri can do it．Siri seems almost human．When you ask，"Are you a real person？"Siri answers，"That is a really personal question．" But，just because a system can behave like humans does not mean it can think like humans．Or，does it？JOINING OF HUMAN & MACHINEIt seems that our devices（设备）will turn into humans．Our phones already tell us to take an umbrella before we walk out the door．They volunteer traffic conditions so we know how long it will take to drive to work．Our devices can interact with us in a way that looks like a real conversation with another human being，like with Siri．It does not seem crazy at all to think that AI may be programmed to actually think．If it has not already happened，it likely will happen in the near future．Have we come to the time when computers and AI have caught up to human beings？Although computers have the ability to make our life better，is it possible that they may control and destroy human beings in the end？WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDSIt seems pretty clear that in the future，we're going to see a human machine hybrid．Humans will be stronger，live longer and be smarter．Ray Kurzweil，a computer scientist，believes that within 50years，the humans on Earth will be about 50to 80% robotic．There is no question that AI will be a part of every technology that humans create．Will it turn out to be more of a benefit to humankind or will it be a risk and threaten（威胁到）humanity as we know it？If AI is programmed according to Isaac Asimov's 3Laws of Robotics，humans won，t have a problem with machines；but for some，evil AI still stands in the way of a peaceful and safe life on earth．30．The story of computer Watson is mentioned here to tell us that．A．the age of machines has comeB．humans make their own enemiesC．AI has actually come into our lifeD．humans are playing a dangerous game31．From the passage we can learn that．A．Turing test was designed to examine the first computersB．machines interacting with humans can be called AIC．Siri can volunteer to book a dinner tableD．AI will help humans to be stronger and smarter32．What does the underlined expression"a human machine hybrid"probably mean？A．a machine with a human lookB．a human created by machinesC．a body part robotic part humanD．a robot that can behave like humans33．The passage is mainly about．A．the history and future of AIB．the advantages and disadvantages of AIC．the examples of AID．the competition between humans and AI．四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题．（共10 分，每小题2 分）18．（10分）Albino PowerI was born an albino（白化病患者）in Scranton，Pennsylvania，in 1945．No one in my familyhad ever known what an albino was，what it meant to be an
