About a month after the move, Judy fell ill, suffering from her ongoing（不间断的）battle against Parkinson disease.‎ Her condition worsened rapidly and she required medical care at home. The family hired a nursing aid who canceled at the last minute. Instead, a woman named TunDe Hector showed up in her place.‎ One day, TunDe shared a story with Judy and her family. She remembered a particularly difficult day in 2014, when a stranger had helped her with a kind gesture. She had run out of gas, and with only $5 in her pocket, was walking to a gas station. A man saw her walking and turned his car around. He paid for her gas and gave her all the cash left in his wallet. Upon hearing the story, Judy's son, Chris, took off his hat and said, "That was me!" He was the stranger 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 ‎ that had helped TunDe on that difficult day.‎ During the care of Judy, the Wright family learned about TunDe's family and her own dream. The nursing aid, TunDe hoped that one day she could become an OB-GYN nurse. Her tuition was past due（逾期）and she had a family to care for, but she was determined to achieve that goal for herself and her family.‎ Judy died on July 9, 2017. Instead of flowers, her family asked mourners（悼念者） to donate to TunDe's education, to assist her in paying for her nursing school. In less than a week, they raised more than $8,000 and presented her with the surprise check.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）Why did Judy's family choose TunDe in the end?‎ A.To replace another nursing aid.‎ B.To help her with a kind gesture.‎ C.To give Judy the best medical care.‎ D.To look after Judy in the hospital.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）How might Chris feel when hearing TunDe's story?‎ A.Puzzled B.Thrilled C.Delighted D.Shocked ‎ ‎ ‎（3）How did the Wright family help TunDe after Judy's death?‎ A.They bought her a surprise present.‎ B.They paid for her education.‎ C.They helped her realize her dream.‎ D.They helped care for her family.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）What does the whole story mainly tell us?‎ A.The truth never fears investigation.‎ B.Kindness comes full circle.‎ C.Actions speak louder than words.‎ D.Constant dropping wears stone.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎3. ‎ On average, Americans spend about 10 hours a day in front of a computer or other electronic devices and less than 30 minutes a day outdoors. That is a claim made by David Strayer, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah. In his 2017 TED Talk, Strayer explained that all this time spent with technology is making our brains tired.‎ Using an electronic device to answer emails, listen to the news and look at Facebook puts a lot of pressure on the front of the brain, which, Strayer explains, is important for critical thinking, problem-solving and decision-making.‎ So it is important to give the brain a rest. And being in nature, Strayer claims, helps get a tired brain away from too much technology. More than 15,000 campers from around the world attended an international camping festival in September. That is when friends and family take time off and escape to nature for several days. They take walks, climb, explore, swim, sleep, eat and play. Camping may be just what a tired brain needs.‎ Take Carl for example. He lives in West Virginia and enjoys camping. He says that staying outdoors makes him feel at ease. It also prepares him for the work he must do. Kate Somers is another example who also lives in West Virginia. She says she enjoys camping with her husband and two children. She calls it a "regenerative" experience.‎ At the University of Utah, David Strayer has studied both short-term and long-term exposure to nature. He found that spending short amounts of time in nature without technology does calm the brain and helps it to remember better. However, he found it is the long-term contact with nature that does the most good. He and his research team found spending three days in nature without any technology is enough time for the brain to fully relax and reset itself.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）What is David Strayer's opinion?‎ A.New technologies are a double-edged sword.‎ B.Americans dislike outdoor activities.‎ C.Electronic equipment brings great convenience.‎ D.Electronic equipment should be quitted.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）Why does Strayer insist we go outdoors?‎ A.To make better decisions.‎ B.To refresh our brain.‎ C.To play with our family and friends.‎ D.To try another lifestyle.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）What does the underlined word "regenerative" mean?‎ A.Relevant. B.Exhausting. C.Reborn. D.Ridiculous.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）Which is the proper title for the passage?‎ A.Being in Nature Is Good for the Brain.‎ B.How to Use New Technologies.‎ C.Electronic Equipment Harms the Brain.‎ D.Good Rest Develops Good Memory.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎4. ‎ In 2015, a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386,000 words in the entire French Scrabble Dictionary in just nine weeks. However, he does not speak French. Richards' impressive feat（成功，功绩）is a useful example to show 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 ‎ how artificial intelligence works—real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field.‎ The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting. Because AI can outperform humans at routine tasks—provided the task is in one field with a lot of data—it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.‎ But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact, four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First, there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobs—executives, diplomats, economists—go well beyond the AI limitation of single-field and Big Data. Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI.‎ Are you worried that these three types of jobs won't employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors. These jobs require compassion, trust and sympathy—which AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer, or a robot to babysit their children.‎ So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?‎ A. To stress the importance of good memory.‎ B. To introduce the topic.‎ C. To suggest humans go beyond AI in memory.‎ D. To mention Nigel's feat.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）Which of the following best explains "outperform" underlined in paragraph 2?‎ A. Be similar to B. Be superior to C. Be related to D. Be inferior to ‎ ‎ ‎（3）Which of the following jobs is the most likely to be replaced?‎ A. The babysitter. B. The writer. C. The psychologist. D. The shop assistant. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）Which does the text suggest people do about job replacement of AI?‎ A. Apply for the donation from companies.‎ B. Limit the application of AI to a certain degree.‎ C. Upgrade themselves all the time.‎ D. Get more support from the government.‎ 二、七选五阅读 ‎ ‎ ‎ 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。 ‎ After a long day at work, coming home is a breath of fresh air.
