Wearing a white blouse, Ai-Da studies her subject and begins to draw. She looks
like any artist at work. However, the "beep ... beep ... beep" noise from her arm gives her
away. Ai-Da is, in fact, a robot.
Ai-Da has been described as the world's "first AI (人工智能) robot artist". She takes her
name from Ada Lovelace, the world's first female computer programmer. Scientists at Oxford

University developed AI systems (系统) for Ai-Da. The robot has cameras in her eyeballs.
After she has studied a subject, she will use her left arm to draw. Now, Ai-Da can only use a
pencil for sketches (素描). The plan is for her to paint.
Ai-Da is not the first AI system to produce artworks. Since 2006, scientists have been
developing software (软件) to turn photos into drawings. Last year, an artwork created using
AI was sold in New York for $132,500. However, Ai-Da's human-like appearance brings
something new to the field.
In June, Ai-Da opened her first exhibition at Oxford. There were about 30 drawings by
the robot. Ai-Da, standing next to her artworks, attracted (吸引) many visitors.
Ai-Da's inventor, Aidan Meller, talked about the importance of the robot. "Ai-Da brings
a new voice to the art world," she said. "AI is going to be the big thing of the 2020s. That
influences us greatly." Meller hopes the exhibition was just the start and that more will follow
to show how AI is influencing human life.

The longest river in the world is the Nile. It is 4,160 miles long. But the Nile is not
the mightiest (浩荡的) river. The Amazon is. The Amazon is also the second longest river in
the world. It is 3,900 miles long. How long is that? It is longer than a road going from New
York City to San Francisco.
The Amazon is the mightiest for this reason. It has the greatest amount of water. More
water runs out to sea than from the Nile. Mississippi, and Yangtze rivers combined. That's a
lot of fresh water! The force of its current (水流) is great too. The current can be seen 200
miles out in the sea. There's a story to show the Amazon's amazing current. A ship sailed (航
行) far away from Brazil. It ran out of drinking water. Another ship passed by. The first ship
asked for water. Someone on the second ship said. "Just put your buckets (桶) into the sea."
Here are a few more facts. At its mouth, the Amazon is 90 miles wide. Even up the river,
you can't see the opposite bank. The river is also very deep(from 22 to 76 meters). During
rainy season, the river rises about 16 meters more. Big ocean ships can sail about 1,800 miles

upstream (向上游). Smaller ships can sail 1,000 miles farther.
What's the most bloodthirsty fish in the world? No. It's not the shark. It's the Amazon's
piranha. It is only about 10 cm to 20 cm long. It has sharp teeth. Thousands travel in a group.
No animal can swim across the rivet. A 1,000-pound horse would be just bones (骨头) in
three minutes. Are you planning a trip to the Amazon? Here's a piece of advice. Leave your
swimsuit at home!

Wake up, boys and girls! Put up your hand if you try to repair your tired body by
sleeping in(睡懒觉)on weekends. A new study says the habit might not be a good idea for
your health.
The ten-day study came out in the magazine Current Biology. Volunteers were divided
into three groups. The first group enjoyed nine hours' sleep each night. The second group was
allowed to sleep only five hours each night. The third group was given five hours' sleep
Monday through Friday.29.But they were put back on the short sleep schedule the next
Monday.
Both the second and third groups ate more snacks at night and put on weight. They also
saw a decrease (减少) in insulin sensitivity (胰岛素敏感性), a warning sign for diabetes (糖
尿病). Researchers have long known a tack (缺乏) of sleep can increase health risks.30.
"Even though people in the third group slept as much as they could on the weekend, it
试卷第 5页,总 8页
was not enough," said Dr Kenneth Wright, who led the study. "When they went back to the
short sleep schedule the next week, their body failed to control blood sugar. 31.
So what should we do if sleeping in over the weekend is not a good choice? 32. Cut out
the "sleep stealers" such as watching television shows or spending time on computers or
mobile phones. Always remember. Getting enough sleep is as important as having good
caring habits or doing exercise regularly.
A.That was partly because their biological clock (生物钟) had been changed.
B.People can repair their tired body by sleeping in on weekends.
C.But it was surprising that the third group had been worse than the second one.

In Pontevedra, a city in Spain, people don't shout. Since cars are banned (明令禁止)
in the city, there are no noises from cars. People don't have to try hard to make themselves
heard. What you hear in the street, instead, is the singing of birds.
Miguel Lores, the mayor (市长), opens the windows of his office, and the sound of
human voices41. (rise) from the street below. Lores says, "More than 14,000 cars used to
试卷第 6页,总 8页
pass along this street every day. There 42.(be) more cars passing through the city in a day
than people living here."
Lores became mayor in 1999. He spent months43.(walk) around the city. "The historical
city is dead," he said one day. "It is full of cars. It44.(pollute) heavily. There are a lot of
traffic accidents. The elderly and children aren't able to use the streets because of cars. People
who had a chance to leave have done so."
At first, Lores thought of improving traffic conditions. However, he couldn't come up
with a good plan. After lots of discussions, the government finally decided45.( take ) action
to ban cars.
The change46.(bring ) Pontevedra many advantages since then. Traffic accidents seldom
happen. CO2emissions (排放物) are down 70 percent. Many people are moving to the city,
making it lively again. Most local people in the city like the change. Ramiro Armesto, a
mother of two young children, said, "In the past, the first thing to see in the morning was
traffic jams. Now, the city is cleaner, quieter and safer." Raquel Garcia, another parent, said
she had stayed in many cities around the world. However, she had never lived in a city as
"easy to live in" as Pontevedra. "Even while it47.(rain). I walk everywhere. The feeling is
wonderful," she added. "Pontevedra is paradise(天堂)”.
On winter nights, the wind usually blows strongly. Most of us stay inside our warm
homes. Few of us think about the homeless. These people have no choice but to sleep on the
streets. Some of them are so poor that they have no money to buy food.
A young man in Birmingham, England, made a decision to do something about this.
Every night, he puts on a Spider-Man suit and gives food to the homeless he meets. He makes
sure that these people won't go hungry.
The man refuses to make his name public. The local people call him the "Birmingham
Spider-Man". The young man hopes his action will show others that everybody deserves (应
得) a helping hand.
The 25-year-old man started his night activities in 2015. Every night at 9, he buys some
sandwiches. Then. he finds a quiet alley and puts on his "uniform". After that, the
"Spider-Man" starts handing his food out to people in need.
The man said, "I wear the Spider-Man suit in order to get attention." Without the suit,
few people took a second look at him when he was handing out food. When people see the
试卷第 7页,总 8页
"Spider-Stan",however, they come over and ask what he is doing.
"The Birmingham Spider-Man" has already got lots of attention. Many people have
offered to give away money to him. But the young man never accepts the money. Instead, he
encourages people to go out and help people in need on their own. He said, "If more people
offer a helping hand, the cold winter nights won't be so cold any longer."
