參考答案

1.D2.C3.A

【分析】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章給洛杉磯的一家圖書俱樂部打廣告，介紹了其近期活動和聯(lián)系方式。

1.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第一句WelcometotheL.A.TimesBookClub,anopportunitytosee,hearandinteract

withworld-classauthors,celebritiesandnewsmakersastheydiscusstheirbooksandtelltheirstories.nJ知,在洛杉

磯時代書籍俱樂部，讀者們有機(jī)會與世界級的作家進(jìn)行交流，這就是其特別之處。故選D項。

2.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后兩句RodriguezwillbeinconversationwithTimesreporterDanielHernandezatthe

ColonyTheatreinBurbank.可知，Rodriguez將在伯班克的殖民地劇院接受《時代》記者丹尼爾?埃爾南德斯

的采訪。如果現(xiàn)在購票，你會遇見到他。故選C項。

3.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Wanttoknowmore?Signupforournewsletter（簡訊）inthesubscriptionbox,and

we'llkeepyouinformedofbookclubnewsandupcomingevents.可知，如果想了解更多有關(guān)俱樂部的信息，可

以訂閱他們的簡訊，他們會隨時更新有關(guān)內(nèi)容。故選A項。

4.D5.A6.C7.C

【分析】

本文是一篇說明文，講述了“greenthumb”這一短語的由來，及園藝師被稱為“greenthumb''的原因。

4.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段“withtheOxfordEnglishDictionarycitinguseofgreenfingersasearlyas1906from

thenovelTheMissesmake-believebyMaryStuartBoyd.Greenthumb,meanwhile,wasusedfirstin1937Ironwood

DailyGlobenewspaperarticle,"（早在1906年，《牛津英語詞典》就引用了瑪麗?斯圖爾特?博伊德的小說《假

裝小姐》中的“綠手指''一詞。"綠拇指'’一詞最早出現(xiàn)在1937年《鐵木日報環(huán)球報》的一篇文章中，）可知，

在有文字記載的歷史中，“綠手指”出現(xiàn)得更早。故選D項。

5.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段“OtherspointtoastoryaboutKingEdwardIandhisloveofgreenpeas,whichwere

shelledbysubservientworkers—onewouldbehonouredfordoingthemostworkandhavingthegreenestthumb.

Thereisalsothefactthatplantscontainchorophyllwhichcaneasilydiscolouryourhands.^^（還有人提到一個關(guān)于

愛德華一世國王和他對綠豌豆的熱愛的故事，這些豌豆被卑躬屈節(jié)的工人剝?nèi)チ藲ぁ獋€人會因為做了

最多的工作和擁有最綠的拇指而被授予榮譽。還有一個事實是，植物含有葉綠素，很容易讓你的手變色。）

可知，關(guān)于“綠拇指''來源的故事都與植物中的葉綠素有關(guān)。故選A項。

6.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段“ItmighthavesomethingtodowithanoldEnglishproverb:"Anhonestmiller（W

坊主）hasagoldenthumb.""（這可能與一句古老的英國諺語有關(guān)：“誠實的磨坊主擁有黃金拇指?！保┛芍?/p>

在俚語中“綠拇指”中拇指被使用而不是其他手指，是因為人們把這個詞與金拇指聯(lián)系在一起。故選C項。

7.

主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第一段Ifyouliketospendyourtimeuptoyourelbowsindirtandhavethe

abilitytogrowplantsthatdon，twitheranddie,youmayhavebeentoldyouhaveagreenthumb."But

wheredidthephrasecomefrom?^^（如果你喜歡把時間花在泥土中，并且有能力種植不會枯萎和死亡的植物，

你可能會被告知你有特殊園藝才能，但是這個短語是從哪里來的呢？）及最后一段“Why,then,isthephrase

focusedmoreonthethumbwhenallofyourfingersarelikelytogetdiscoloured?Itmighthavesomethingtodowith

anoldEnglishproverb:"Anhonestmillerhasagoldenthumb."“（那么,為什么當(dāng)你所有的手指都有可能變色

的時候，這個短語卻更側(cè)重于拇指呢?這可能與一句古老的英國諺語有關(guān)：“誠實的磨坊主擁有黃金拇指?！保?/p>

可知，文章主要講述了園藝師被稱為“綠拇指''的原因。所以短文的最佳標(biāo)題為“為什么說園藝師被稱為

ugreenthumb”？故選C項。

8.C9.B10.D11.C

【分析】

本文是一篇說明文。在進(jìn)行推薦建議時，AI專家和人類專家的影響力一樣有效。AI專家由于便捷性、低成

本受到廣泛歡迎，但我們不應(yīng)該忘記其中隱藏的文化偏見，這取決于人類如何灌輸和訓(xùn)練。

8.

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第二段“Inastudy,researchersfoundthatmachinesthatmakerecommendations-orAI

experts-wereasinfluentialashumanexpertswhentheAIexpertsrecommendedwhichphotousersshouldaddto

theironlinebusinessprofiles."（在一項研究中，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，當(dāng)人工智能專家建議哪些照片用戶應(yīng)該添加

到他們的在線商業(yè)資料中時，提出建議的機(jī)器——或人工智能專家——的影響力與人類專家一樣大。）及

"However...iftheirfeedbackwasnegativeandwentagainstpopularviewsamongotherusers”（但是...如果他們的

反饋是負(fù)面的，并且與其他用戶的流行觀點相悖）可推測，當(dāng)反饋是負(fù)面的情況下，人工智能和人類專家

都不能做出讓步，即改變不了人們的觀點。故選C項。

9.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段“AIexpertsareoftenlessexpensivethanhumanexpertsandtheycanalsowork24

hoursaday,which,Wangsuggests,mightmakethemappealingtoonlinebusinesses.^^（王表示，人工智能專家通

常比人類專家更便宜，而且他們可以一天24小時工作，這可能會讓他們對在線企業(yè)有吸引力。）可知，用

戶經(jīng)常尋求AI專家的幫助是因為AI專家便捷并且花費少。故選B項。

10.

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段“Amonghumanexperts,however,anexpertfromasimilarnationaloriginwho

offeredanegativeopinionofaphotographtendedtobemoreinfluentialthanahumanexpertfromanunknown

countrywhoofferedasimilarnegativeratingofaphotograph.^^（然而，在人類專家中，來自相似國家的專家如

果對照片給出負(fù)面評價，往往比來自未知國家的專家給出相似負(fù)面評價的照片更有影響力。）可推測，來自

相似文化背景的專家觀點更有影響力。故選D項。

11.

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段“WhileitisgoodtobelieveinAPsabilitytotranscendculturalbiases,wehaveto

keepinmindthatifyoutraintheAIonpicturesfromoneculture,theycouldgivemisleadingrecommendationson

picturesmeantforuseinotherculturalcontexts.,,

（雖然相信人工智能能夠超越文化偏見是件好事，但我們必須記住，如果你用一種文化的圖片來訓(xùn)練人工

智能，它們可能會對其他文化背景下使用的圖片給出誤導(dǎo)性的建議。）由此判斷出，Sundar的意思是

人們應(yīng)該知道人工智能隱藏的文化偏見。故選C項。

12.B13.C14.A15.B

【分析】

這是一篇說明文。文章講述了研究發(fā)現(xiàn)常見的綠色室內(nèi)植物可以凈化家里空氣中彌漫著的有害化學(xué)物質(zhì)。

12.

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“Nowthereisevenmoreofaneedfor“thegreen,“inlightofrecentarticleswarning

usofthedangersofchemicalsthatwe,ourselves,introduceintoourhomes.（現(xiàn)在，我們甚至更需要“綠色”，

因為最近有文章警告我們化學(xué)物質(zhì)的危險，我們自己把化學(xué)物質(zhì)帶回我們家里。）”可知，作者認(rèn)為我們在
