I was a total outsider and bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.‎ But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.‎ Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other ‎ teenagers the way those books helped me.‎ After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.‎ Kindness saved me when I needed help the most.

It would make sense that if it can cause this problem, perhaps it also may contribute to graying. However, there is no sound evidence to support this. Main factors in gray hair were thought to be age, stress, environment and improper diet.‎ In addition, genetics is a very powerful factor, if one of your parents turns gray at an early age, there is a good chance that you will too. The team led by Professor Andres Ruiz-Linares at University College London analyzed DNA samples of more than 6,000 volunteers in Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Mexico and Peru. It identified a gene called IRF4 that is responsible for gray hair. He said the most important reasons for gray hair are genes rather than other influences. This newfound gene means that preventing or even reversing gray hair is now a possibility.‎ But most scientists think that the answer for gray hair comes from the cells in your hair. These are what determine the color and, eventually, the fade to grey. Your hair is made up of cells called melanocytes which produce pigments (色素) as they grow into the hair fiber. Our hair color is determined by the amount of melanin (黑色素) in our body. The more melanin a person has, the darker his or her hair color.‎ There are two different types of melanins: eumelanins (真黑色素) and pheomelanins (类黑色素).The former produces black and brown pigments, while the latter produces red and yellow pigments. The exact amount of these pigments determines whether a person has black, brown, blonde or yellow hair. As we age, the ability of the melanocytes to produce more pigments weakens.‎ Scientists are continuing to try and find ways to prevent graying hair. A team of scientists in France is working to try and stop the melanocytes from being damaged at the end of each hair cycle. They are trying to use a special enzyme to protect the cells from damage. If successful, it could lead the way for new products that keep our locks full of color for years to come.‎ ‎8. What might play the most important role in the graying process according to Andres Ruiz-Linares?‎ A. genetics of human beings B. constant worry and tension C. the amount of food people eat and living environment D. the amount of pigment ‎9. What do we know about yellow hair?‎ A. It will turn black as people get older.‎ B. The amount of pigments in it doesn’t change over time.‎ C. It contains more pheomelanins than eumelanins.‎ D. People with yellow hair have weaker ability to produce pigments.‎ ‎10. What do the scientists from France aim to do?‎ A. To repair damaged hairs.‎ B. To shorten the hair cycle.‎ C. To protect hair cells against damage.‎ D. To study the relationship between health and hair color.‎ ‎11. What does the underlined word “locks” in the last paragraph probably refer to?‎ A. melanocytes B. hairs C. cells D. pigments ‎【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文为说明文。文章说明了年龄、压力、生活环境和饮食不合理是造成白发的主要因素，此外基因是一个非常强大的因素。文章就此探讨了头发呈现不同颜色和褪色的原因。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。通过第二段He said the most important reasons for gray hair are genes rather than other influences.（他说，白发最重要的原因是基因，而不是其他影响。）可知在Andres Ruiz-Linares看来，基因在头发变白的过程中扮演最重要的角色。故选A。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The former produces black and brown pigments, while the latter produces red and yellow pigments（前者生产黑色和棕色色素，后者生产红色和黄色色素）”及下文“The exact amount of these pigments determines whether a person has black, brown, blonde or yellow hair（这些色素的准确含量决定了一个人的头发是黑色、棕色、金色还是黄色）”可推断，黄头发中类黑色素（pheomelanins）的含量比真黑色素（eumelanins）多。故选C。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据最后一段中They are trying to use a special enzyme to protect the cells from damage.可知，法国科学家正在研究一种酶用来保护头发细胞免于受损。故选C。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 词意猜测题。根据上文They are trying to use a special enzyme to protect the cells from damage.可知法国科学家正在研究一种酶用来保护头发细胞免于受损，如果实验成功，将可能研制出新的产品，用来保持头发的颜色。故可知划线单词指代“头发”。故选B。‎ D Artificial intelligence is set to benefit mankind in many ways. It will make everyday tasks easier and bring efficiency to various industries. It might just prove to be one of man’s greatest inventions. And yet, like any other technology, AI will ‎ also bring risks and dangers. When people mention that AI could be dangerous, most people think of scenarios from movies or books where an AI program decides to eliminate or conquer all humans.‎ In February 2018, a group of AI experts got together to discuss the potential misuse of AI. Their main concern was that criminals could use AI for a variety of evil purposes. Someone can use AI to create websites that could be used to steal people’s personal information. Another potential risk is faster hacking—AI programs could be taught to find loopholes in software and break into secure computer systems. Some of the risks were as dramatic as the ones we see in books and movies. For example, the experts mentioned automated terrorism (自动化的恐怖主义) by using drones or unmanned vehicles as weapons. Remote attacks using such devices could be made easier through the use of AI.‎ And finally, there were some concerns on the fact that AI can mimic voices as well. Last year US filmmaker Jordan Peele teamed up with BuzzFeed website to make a movie using AI techniques to copy former US president Barack Obama’s voice. They “had” him voice his opinions on the 2017 movie Black Panther and current US President Donald Trump. While in China, tech giant Baidu, has also developed a program called Deep Voice that can “copy” anyone’s voice by analyzing a 3.7-second audio sample.‎ Famous British physicist Stephen Hawking even thought AI could be the worst event in the history of our civilization. “Once humans develop artificial intelligence, it will take off and redesign itself at an alarming rate. Humans couldn’t compete and would be superseded, he told the BBC. However, Hawking suggested “I believe we can create AI for the good of the world. We simply need to be aware of the dangers, identify them, employ the best possible practice and management, and prepare for its consequences well in advance.”‎ Actually, AI technology is making great progress in terms of the three-stage development of artificial intelligence. It is unlikely that fully developing AI would make it hard for mankind to survive. After all, without human intelligence, AI cannot even develop itself, let alone replace human civilization.‎ ‎12. According to the text, which of the following is NOT the risk brought by AI?‎ A. AI can be used to create websites to steal people’s personal information.‎ B AI can help criminals to break into secure computer systems without permission.‎ C. AI can be used by terrorists to carry out terrorist attacks.‎ D. AI can be used to clone humans.‎ ‎13. What does the underlined word “mimic” in paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. imitate B. disturb C. record D. change ‎14. What can we infer from Stephen Hawking’s words?‎ A. AI is the best invention in the history of our civilization.‎ B. AI is not as intelligent and creative as humans.‎ C. AI can identify the dangers in advance.‎ D. AI will benefit the world if under careful management.‎ ‎15. Which best describes the author’s attitude towards the future of AI?‎ A. Worried. B. Indifferent.‎ C. Positive. D. Negative.‎ ‎【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文为议论文。主要介绍了随着科学技术的进步，人工智能迎来了发展的机遇，同时也引发了越来越多的担忧。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中Someone can use AI to create websites that could be used to steal people’s personal information. Another potential risk is faster hacking—AI programs could be taught to find loopholes in software and break into secure computer systems. Some of the risks were as dramatic as the ones we see in books and movies. For example, the experts mentioned automated terrorism by using drones or unmanned vehicles as ‎ weapons.（有人可以使用人工智能创建网站，用来窃取人们的个人信息。另一个潜在的风险是更快的黑客攻击——人工智能程序可能被用来发现软件中的漏洞，并侵入安全的计算机系统。有些风险就像我们在书和电影中看到的那样戏剧化。例如，专家提到了使用无人机或无人驾驶车辆作为武器的自动化恐怖主义。）可知人工智带来的风险有：人工智能可以用来创建网站，窃取人们的个人信息；人工智能可以帮助罪犯在未经允许的情况下进入安全的计算机系统以及人工智能可以被恐怖分子用来实施恐怖袭击。只有D选项“人工智能可以用来克隆人类。”文章并没有提到。故选D。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 词意猜测题。从下文using AI techniques to copy former US president Barack Obama’s voice.可知可以使用人工智能技术模仿美国前总统奥巴马的声音。可知人工智能可以模仿人的声音。故mimic意思为“模仿”。故选A。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中However, Hawking suggested “I believe we can create AI for the good of the world. We simply need to be aware of the dangers, identify them, employ the best possible practice and management, and prepare for its consequences well in advance.”（然而，霍金表示:“我相信我们可以为了世界的利益而创造人工智能。我们只需要意识到这些危险，识别它们，采用最好的做法和管理，并提前做好应对后果的准备。”）可知我们可以从斯蒂芬·霍金的话中推断，如果精心管理，人工智能将造福世界。故选D。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段It is unlikely that fully developing AI would make it hard for mankind to survive.（人工智能的全面发展不太可能让人类难以生存。）可知作者对于人工智能的未来还是比较乐观的。故选C。‎ ‎【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为 ‎① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或that’s to say，such as等。‎ ‎② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。‎ ‎③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。‎ ‎④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。‎ ‎⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。‎ 如第二小题，从下文using AI techniques to copy former US president Barack Obama’s voice.可知可以使用人工智能技术模仿美国前总统奥巴马的声音。可知人工智能可以模仿人的声音。故mimic意思为“模仿”。故选A。‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives.

Tow self-confidence is often caused by the negative thoughts running through our minds on an endless track.‎ ‎★ Be comfortable with fear You may think that people who are self-confident are never fearful.

So by looking in the mirror and smiling every day, you might feel happier about your appearance, and to accept the way you look. ____20____.‎ A. Look at what you’ve already achieved B.
