The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.‎ The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones-that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around-is a well-established idea.‎ - 18 -‎ The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face-as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown.‎ Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was complete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.‎ Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers’ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.‎ The system could be used to manipulate consumers’ impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.‎ ‎"It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.‎ Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”‎ ‎58. What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?‎ A. To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.‎ B. To see whether one’s facial expressions can be altered.‎ C. To manipulate one’s feelings when he or she is shopping.‎ - 18 -‎ D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.‎ ‎59. According to the passage, the web-camera image in the study .‎ A. gave the volunteers a false image B. recorded the volunteers’ performance in the task C. attempted to make the volunteers feel happier D. beautified the volunteers’ appearance in the mirror ‎60. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?‎ A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.‎ B. It only works in clothing stores to attract shoppers.‎ C. It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.‎ D. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.‎ ‎61. Creed’s comment on the moral issues with this technology implies .‎ A. nothing is more important than happiness B. technology is unable to manipulate people C. people should make their decisions independently D. people should neglect the harm of the technology C The latest witch-hunt is under way. The witches are the rapid innovation in robotics and computing, ready to replace humans in performing increasingly difficult tasks and so replace jobs across the employment market. The main view is that rapid technological innovation has been taking jobs faster than it is creating them.‎ We appear to be cornering ourselves in the narrow view that crowds man and machine onto the same tasks. But there is another view, for a positive man-machine dynamic. While not in the majority, arguments exist for a man-machine future. They celebrate that which is uniquely human –meaning and creativity -and that which should be the main business of humans in the first place.‎ In his latest article, for example, David Nordfors makes a distinction between a task-centered and human-centered economy. In the task-centered economy humans have no value beyond the tasks they perform. As a result, they are indistinguishable from machines and will be replaced by them as soon as technology can be applied. In the human-centered economy on the other hand, machines allow humans to escape from predefined tasks with prestated outcomes. This allows them to exercise - 18 -‎ ‎ the value that appears from working with other humans on open-ended, creative efforts.‎ In Reinventing the Sacred, Stuart Kauffman mainly puts to rest the idea that human brains will become indistinguishable from algorithms as machines finally reach shocking sophistication. Kauffman points out that higher order human mental processes are beyond algorithms. Philosophers such as Sanders Pierce and design thinkers such as Roger Martin have long suggested the ability of human minds to perform leaps of logic to get to creative solutions. Going beyond logic-based arguments and case study proof, Kauffman describes how machine algorithms, even based on the most sophisticated AI technologies, can only solve problems which are limited by prestated guesses.‎ We have, for the majority of humanity’s history, used humans for robotic, repeatable, efficiency-minded tasks. Technology has finally reached a point where creativity and meaning are accessible to everyone. As David Nordfors rightly says, never yet seen so much wealth is waiting to be seen. We are ready to forever get rid of the last form of human slavery: meaningless, dehumanizing, algorithmic work.‎ ‎62. The author mentions the “witch-hunt” at the beginning of the text to .‎ A. express the driving need to create more jobs B. show the progress made in technological innovation C. explain important changes in patterns of employment D. introduce an unpopular view on rapid technological innovation ‎63. In a human-centered economy, machines .‎ A. take the place of human labors B. get in the way of human progress C. work with people on creative activities D. free people for the exploration of creativity and meaning ‎64. According to the text, Stuart Kauffman most probably agrees that .‎ A. AI technologies have the ability to do creative thinking B. leaps of logic distinguish humans from machines C. human brains can be viewed as upgraded computers D. machine algorithms are beyond human minds’ ability ‎65. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?‎ A. We should want robots to take some jobs.‎ - 18 -‎ B. The conflict between humans and machines.‎ C. Creativity is the long-term goal of robot improvement.‎ D. The difference between a task-centered and human-centered economy.‎ D Perhaps it is time for farmers to put their feet up now that robots are used to inspect crops, dig up weeds, and even have become shepherds, too. Commercial growing fields are astronomically huge and take thousands of many hours to operate. One prime example is one of Australia’s most isolated cattle stations, Suplejack Downs in the Northern Territory, extending across 4,000 square kilometers, taking over 13 hours to reach by car from the nearest major town -Alice Springs.‎ The extreme isolation of these massive farms leaves them often unattended, and monitored only once or twice a year, which means if the livestock falls ill or requires assistance, it can be a long time for farmers to discover.‎ However, robots are coming to the rescue. Robots are currently under a two-year trial in Wales which will train “farmbots” to herd, monitor the health of livestock, and make sure there is enough pasture for them to graze on. The robots are equipped with many sensors to identify conditions of the environment, cattle and food, using thermal and vision sensors that detect changes in body temperature.‎ ‎"You’ve also got color, texture and shape sensors looking down at the ground to check pasture quality,” says Salah Sukkarieh of the University of Sydney, who will carry out trials on several farms in central New South Wales.‎ During the trials, the robot algorithms and mechanics will be fine-tuned to make it better suited to ailing livestock and ensure it safely navigates around potential hazards including trees, mud, swamps, and hills.‎ ‎"We want to improve the quality of animal health and make it easier for farmers to maintain large landscapes where animals roam free,” says Sukkarieh.‎ The robots are not limited to herding and monitoring livestock. They have been created to count individual fruit, inspect crops, and even pull weeds.‎ Many robots are equipped with high-tech sensors and complex learning algorithms to avoid injuring humans as they work side by side. The robots also learn the most efficient and safest passages, and allow engineers and farmers to analyze and better optimize the attributes and tasks of - 18 -‎ ‎ the robot, as well as provide a live stream giving real-time feedback on exactly what is happening on the farms.‎ Of course, some worry lies in replacing agricultural workers. However, it is farmers that are pushing for the advancements due to ever-increasing labor vacancies, making it difficult to maintain large-scale operations.‎ The robots have provided major benefits to farmers in various ways, from hunting and pulling weeds to monitoring the condition of every single fruit. Future farms will likely experience a greater deal of autonomy as robots take up more and more farm work efficiently.‎ ‎66. What may farmers be able to do with robots appearing on the farming scene?‎ A. Upgrade farm produce. B. Enjoy more leisure hours.‎ C. Modify the genes of crops. D. Cut down farming costs.‎ ‎67. What will “farmbots” be expected to do?‎ A. Take up many of the farmers' routines. B. Provide medical treatments for livestock.‎ C. Lead the trend in farming the world over. D. Improve the quality of pastures for grazing.‎ ‎68. What can robots do when equipped with high-tech sensors and complex learning algorithms?‎ A. Help farmers choose the most efficient and safest passages.‎ B. Help farmers simplify their farming tasks and management.‎ C. Allow farmers to learn instantly what is occurring on the farm.‎ D. Allow farmers to give them real-time instructions on what to do.‎ ‎69. Why are farmers pressing for robotic farming?‎ A. Farming costs are fast increasing. B. Robotics technology is maturing.‎ C. Robotic fanning is the trend. D. Labor shortage is worsening.‎ ‎70. What does the author think future farms will be like?‎ A. More and more automated. B. More and more productive.‎ C. Larger and larger in scale. D. Better and better in condition.‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ The Wandering Earth, China’s first blockbuster sci-fi film, set in space, will represent the dawning of a new era in Chinese film, which means China has entered the cinematic space race.‎ ‎"Film-makers in China see science fiction as a holy grail(圣杯)," said Raymond Zhou, an ‎ - 18 -‎ independent critic, who noted that Hollywood had set the technological standards, and thus audience’s expectations are very high.‎ The Wandering Earth, shown in 3-D, took place in a distant future in which the sun is about to expand into a red giant and swallow the Earth. The coming danger forces the world’s engineers to think up a plan to move the planet to a new solar system.‎ The Wandering Earth opens with the Lunar New Year, the beginning of an official, week-long holiday that is traditionally a peak box-office period in China. At first, it has a limited release in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.‎ At home, it will compete with Crazy Alien, a comedy about two brothers hoping to capitalize on the arrival of a visitor from outer space.‎ Both the Wandering Earth and Crazy Alien are adapted from works by Liu Cixin, the writer who has led a renaissance in science fiction here, becoming the first Chinese winner of the Hugo Award for the genre in 2015.‎ The popularity of Liu’s novels could help, and so could two recent Hollywood films, Gravity and The Martian. Both included important plots that, not incidentally, cast China’s space program in a positive light, and both were huge hits here.‎ The opening came as China reach a milestone in space: the landing of a probe on the far side of the moon in January. Although decades behind Russia and the United States, China has now put astronauts in orbit and has ambitious plans to join or even lead a new age of space exploration.‎ Unlike Operation Red Sea or the two Wolf Warrior movies, which features a hero battling a bad person, The Wandering Earth is not about patriotism. In the film, a Russian soldier sacrifice his life to help a Chinese colleague. Wu Jing, the leading star of Wolf Warriors plays an astronaut aboard an international space station.‎ The Wandering Earth takes for granted China’s central role in future space exploration, but it also has a vision of the international collaboration necessary to cope with the threats facing the planet, a theme that runs deeply through Liu’s fiction.‎ Introduction China has entered the cinematic space race with the 71. that Hollywood has set the technological standards.‎ ‎72. ‎ ‎●The world’s engineers devise a plan to 73. the earth using giant ‎ - 18 -‎ thrusters.‎ Background on the success The Wandering Earth opens with the Lunar New Year with a 74.‎ ‎ release in some countries.‎ ‎●Both the unique script and the 75. of Liu Cixin’s novels and the inspiration from Hollywood films ,Gravity and The Martian 76. to China’s cinematic space program.‎ ‎●The landing of a probe on the moon means China has reached a 77. in space exploration.‎ ‎●The Wandering Earth is not jingoistic(极端爱国主义的) where a Russian soldier makes 78. for a Chinese colleague.‎ Concision ‎●China is 79. its central role in space exploration.‎ ‎●It is necessary to 80. the threats facing the planet.‎ 第五部分 书面表达(满分25分)‎ 请根据下面所提供材料，结合你的生活经历，展开想象，以学生的身份用英语写一篇短文。‎ ‎1. describe the drawing briefly;‎ ‎2. explain the intended meaning of it, and then ‎3. give your comments (at least 2 points)‎ 注意：字数150词左右。‎ - 18 -‎ - 18 -‎ - 18 -‎ - 18 -‎ - 18 -‎
