Miranda's robots have simple "vocal cords"(声带)and arc programmed to sing and to listen to each other. The robots' unique warbling sounds(颤音)do not perfectly match the human voice, but each machine is exactly sharing music with the other in a new and unique way.‎ Each robot is equipped with speakers, software that mimics the human voice, a mouth that opens as it "sings," a microphone for cars, and a camera for eyes. The robots also move. Miranda hopes that by studying his robot vocalists, he can discover something about how and why humans create, perform, arid listen to music.‎ When the robots sing, first one robot makes six random sounds. Its partner responds with more sounds. The first robot analyze the sound to see if their sequences(序列)are similar. If they are, it nods its head and commits the sounds to memory, and the second robot notices and "memorizes" the musical sequence, too. If the first robot thinks the sounds are too different, it shakes its head and both robots ignore the sounds. Then the process continues.‎ Miranda set up an experiment in which he left the two robots alone in his study for two weeks. When he returned, his little warblers had，by imitating each other, not only shared notes but combined them. The product of their cooperation was far from symphonic, but the robots had begun to combine the notes into their own self-developed "songs".‎ With the help of his warbling robots, one of Miranda's goals is to create music that no human would ever compose. Miranda believes the robots are ideal for this purpose because they would not be influenced by any existing musical styles or rules.‎ ‎24. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word "mimics" in Paragraph 2?‎ A. Substitutes. B. Interrupts. C. Controls. D. Copies.‎ ‎25. What did the two robots do during Miranda's experiment?‎ A. They interacted with each other.‎ B. They ignored the unique sound.‎ C. They learned to sing better than humans.‎ D. They committed random sounds to memory.‎ ‎26. What does Miranda want his robots to do?‎ A. Sing as well as humans do. B. Create new styles of music.‎ C. Memorize a variety of music. D. Promote traditional musical forms.‎ ‎27. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Future robots. B. Special songs. C. Music by robots. D. Experiments by Miranda.‎ C George Nakashima always insisted that he was a simple woodworker, not an artist. Even though major museums exhibited his works and the director of the American Craft Museum called him a national treasure, Mr Nakashima rejected the label of artist. For almost fifty years he simply went on shaping wood into beautiful chairs, tables, and cabinets.‎ Nakashima had a clear goal. He intended each piece of furniture he made to be as perfect as possible. Even making a box was an act of creation, because it produced an object that had never existed before. Initially Nakashima used local wood, sometimes from his own property. Later, he traveled to seek out English oak, Persian walnut, African zebra wood and Indian teak. He especially liked to find giant roots that had been dug out of the ground after a tree was taken down. Nakashima felt that making this wood into furniture was a way of allowing the tree to live again.‎ Most furniture makers prefer perfect boards, but Nakashima took pleasure in using wood with interesting knots(节疤)and cracks. These irregularities gave the wood personality and showed that the tree had lived a happy life.‎ He never failed to create an object that was both useful and beautiful. One early piece Nakashima designed was a three-legged chair for his small daughter, Mira, to use when she sat at the table for meals. The Mira chair became so popular that Nakashima later made both low and high versions. Another famous piece, the Conoid chair, has two legs supported by bladelike feet. Always, Nakashima's designs were precise and graceful，marked by a simplicity that revealed his love for the wood.‎ As the years passed, Nakashima's reputation grew and his work received many awards. His children Mira and Kevin, now adults, joined the team of crafts-people in their father's studio. Nakashima's dream of integrating work and family had come true.‎ ‎28. Which of the following best describes Nakashima?‎ A. Generous and outgoing. B. Honest and simple.‎ C. Capable and friendly. D. Creative and modest.‎ ‎29. Why was Nakashima called a national treasure?‎ A. His art work made trees live again. B. He used precious wood materials.‎ C. His chairs were beautifully designed. D. He was devoted to making furniture.‎ ‎30. What can we learn about Nakashima from the last two paragraphs?‎ A. He loved his work and family. B. He made chairs of the same style.‎ C. He sought for a simple life and art. D. Ile was lost in researching the wood.‎ ‎31. What can be inferred about Mira and Kevin?‎ A. They had an art studio of their own.‎ B. They still lacked the ability to create art works.‎ C. They had a common interest with their father.‎ D. They enjoyed the same reputation will their father.‎ D A drug designed entirely by artificial intelligence is about to enter clinical human trials for the first time. The drug, which is intended to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)(强迫症), was discovered using AI systems from Oxford-based biotech company Exscientia. While it would usually take around four and a half years to get a drug to this stage of development, Exscientia says that by using the AI tools it's taken less than 12 months.‎ The drug, known as DSP-1181, was created by using algorithms(算法)to examine potential compounds(化合物), checking them against a huge database of parameters, including a patient's genetic factors. Speaking to the BBC, Exscientia chief executive Professor Andrew Hopkins described the trials as a "key milestone in drug discovery" and noted that there are "billions" of decisions needed to find the right molecules(分子)for a drug, making their eventual creation a "huge decision." With AI, however, "the beauty of the algorithms is that they are unknowable, so can be applied to any disease."‎ We've already seen multiple examples of AI being used to diagnose illness and analyze patient data, so using it to engineer drug treatment is an obvious progression of its place in medicine. But the AI-created drugs do bring about some relevant questions. Will patients be comfortable taking medicine designed by a machine? How will these drugs differ from those developed by humans alone? Who will make the rules for the use of AI in drug research? Hopkins and his team hope that these and a great many other questions will he explored in the trials, which will begin in March.‎ ‎32. What is special about the drug designed by AI?‎ A. It's a better cure for OCD. B. It has no side effect on humans.‎ C. Its development takes less time. D. It doesn't need clinical human trials.‎ ‎33. Which is a key factor in creating the drug according to Paragraph 2?‎ A. Trials. B. Algorithms. C. Compounds. D. Molecules.‎ ‎34. How does Hopkins feel about the way of drug creation?‎ A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Disappointed. D. Puzzled.‎ ‎35. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Medical Trials by AI B. An Example in Medical Trials C. A Creation in AI Development D. AI-designed Drugs to Be on Trial 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。‎ Exploring work possibilities is quite an emotional challenge for people. The desire to simplify the process by focusing on one attractive option, instead of keeping your eyes open for even more possibilities to add to your list, can be very strong. Naturally, we'd rather make a decision and get on with our lives. 36 However, putting off a decision until after you have done your detective work can pay off in ways you can't even imagine now. So, learn to explore work possibilities，though it was a treasure hunt.‎ Uncertainty is not the only challenge holding you back. 37 You may be unwilling to ask strangers about their work or to ask your colleagues for help because you fear rejection. Or, you may fear failure. Don't let these fears block your search. Remember that one definition of success is "doing your very best to realize your dreams." 38 ‎ There are three ways to learn about work possibilities that you already know exist and to discover more possibilities.‎ ‎1. The easiest and quickest way is to read career information materials available on the Internet, in newspapers and magazines.‎ ‎2. 39 They can give you an "insider's opinion." Spend your time with people as constructively as possible by asking about the local situation or other things not covered in print materials.‎ ‎3. The best way to learn about the work is to "try it on for size" by getting some related ‎ experience.‎ ‎ 40 That greatly increases your ability to "mix and match" information later on to discover, or even create, work possibilities that would be ideal for you.‎ A. Identify your own ability.‎ B. Explore as many options as possible.‎ C. We wouldn't like to live with uncertainty.‎ D. The only way you can fail is to do nothing.‎ E. Talk to people who are knowledgeable about the work.‎ F. The following is what you should do to explore work possibilities.‎ G. Fear is most likely the biggest emotional challenge to successful career building.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Biking through my PhD Overcoming my initial struggles in the Netherlands to start my PhD has been like riding a bike. ‎ I 41 in a hilly, seaside city in China without cycle paths, and biking was 42 for me.
