Whatever the era, the director or the headliners, it tells the story of two lovers on dramatically different paths: a famous man who’s racing to the bottom and a woman who’s soaring to the top.‎ Mr. Cooper does a lot right in this movie A Star Is Born, beginning with the casting of Lady Gaga, whose relaxing, naturalistic performance is the key to the movie’s force.‎ A postMadonna pop artist was known for her elaborate(精心制作的) make up and costumes, which she adopted no more here.‎ This unmasking of Lady Gaga makes her character seem genuine or say natural,‎ 17‎ ‎ a quality that the movie is in favor of and that serves as a kind of everlasting first principle.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了《A Star Is Born》这部电影的相关情况。‎ ‎1．What does the author think of the new movie?‎ A．Boring.　　 B．Recommendable.‎ C．Ridiculous. D．Amusing.‎ B　解析：观点态度题。根据第一段“Lady Gaga’s latest film became an instant hit over the weekend, helping push theaters to an October ticketselling record.”可推知，作者认为这部新电影是值得推荐的。‎ ‎2．The underlined word “soaring” in the third paragraph probably means “________”．‎ A．rising B．singing C．running D．shouting A　解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“different paths: a famous man who’s racing to the bottom and a woman who’s soaring to the top”可推知，画线词意为“上升”，故选A。‎ ‎3．What can we learn about the movie?‎ A．The remakes of the movie adopt different plots.‎ B．The movie tells the story of two friends on different paths.‎ C．Natural performance is considered as the only principle in this movie.‎ D．The movie is more impressive than what movie analysts expected.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“went beyond the previous expectations of movie analysts by roughly 30 percent”可知，这部电影给人的印象比电影分析师预期的要好。‎ ‎4．What is the best title for the passage?‎ A．A Hollywood Movie—A Star Is Born B．Lady Gaga Is on the Edge of Potential Oscar Glory C．A Latest Film of Lady Gaga Won the Oscar Award D．The Box Office of Bradley Cooper’s New Movie A　解析：标题归纳题。根据对全文的整体理解，尤其是第一段“Lady Gaga’s latest film became an instant hit over the weekend, helping push theaters to an October ticketselling record.”可知，这篇文章主要讲述了A Star Is Born这部影片的相关内容，故A项最适合作本文标题。‎ 17‎ B ‎(2020·成都摸底)Selfdriving cars have been backed by the hope that they will save lives by getting involved in fewer crashes with fewer injuries and deaths than humandriven cars. But so far, most comparisons between human drivers and automated vehicles have been unfair.‎ Crash statistics for humandriven cars are gathered from all sorts of driving situations, and on all types of roads. However, most of the data on selfdriving cars’ safety have been recorded often in good weather and on highways, where the most important tasks are staying in the car’s own lane and not getting too close to the vehicle ahead. Automated cars are good at those tasks, but so are humans.‎ It is true that selfdriving cars don’t get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk. But neither can they yet react to uncertain situations with the same skill or anticipation of an attentive human driver. Nor do they possess the foresight to avoid potential perils. They largely drive from moment to moment, rather than think ahead to possible events literally down the road.‎ To a selfdriving car, a bus full of people might appear quite similar to an uninhabited cornfield. Indeed, deciding what action to take in an emergency is difficult for humans, but drivers have sacrificed themselves for the greater good of others. An automated system’s limited understanding of the world means it will almost never evaluate(评估) a situation the same way a human would. And machines can’t be programmed in advance to handle every imaginable set of events.‎ Some people may argue that the promise of simply reducing the number of injuries and deaths is enough to support driverless cars. But experience from aviation(航空) shows that as new automated systems are introduced, there is often an increase in the rate of disasters.‎ Therefore comparisons between humans and automated vehicles have to be performed carefully. To fairly evaluate driverless cars on how well they fulfill their promise of improved safety, it’s important to ensure the data being presented actually provide a true comparison. After all, choosing to replace humans with automation has more effects than simply a oneforone exchange.‎ ‎【解题导语】　自动驾驶汽车一直被推崇，人们希望这些汽车通过比人类驾驶汽车更少地带来伤亡和撞车来挽救生命，但是目前大多数人类司机和自动化汽车之间的比较是不公平的，我们应该综合考虑各种因素，确保收集的数据的可比较性，从而真实、客观地评价自动驾驶汽车。‎ 17‎ ‎5．What makes the comparison between selfdriving cars and humandriven cars unfair?‎ A．Selfdriving cars never get tired.‎ B．Statistics are collected differently.‎ C．Machines can make decisions faster.‎ D．Selfdriving cars know the world better.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句及第二段第一、二句的内容可知，人类驾驶汽车和自动驾驶汽车的碰撞事故的数据收集情况不同，不能公平比较，故选B项。‎ ‎6．What does the underlined word “perils” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?‎ A．Dangers. B．Selfdriving cars.‎ C．Pedestrians. D．Humandriven cars.‎ A　解析：词义猜测题。根据下文中的“rather than think ahead to possible events literally down the road”并结合画线词所在句可知，自动驾驶汽车没有预见能力来避免潜在的危险；由此可推知，画线词意为“危险”，故选A项。‎ ‎7．In which aspect can selfdriving cars beat humandriven cars?‎ A．Driving steadily.‎ B．Climbing steep slopes.‎ C．Evaluating the cost of loss.‎ D．Making complex decisions.‎ A　解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“It is true that selfdriving cars don’t get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk.”可推知，在驾驶的稳定性方面，自动驾驶汽车胜过人类驾驶汽车，故选A项。‎ ‎8．Why does the author write this text?‎ A．To support humandriven cars.‎ B．To show his doubt about selfdriving cars.‎ C．To call for exact evaluation of selfdriving cars.‎ D．To stress the importance of reducing car accidents.‎ C　解析：写作意图题。根据最后一段中的“To fairly evaluate driverless cars...actually provide a true comparison.”并结合文章其他内容可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁人们对自动驾驶汽车做出准确的评价。故选C项。‎ Ⅱ.读后续写 ‎(2020·山东栖霞二中期末)阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。‎ I was driving to a business appointment and, as usual, I was planning in my mind 17‎ ‎ what I was going to say. I came to a very busy crossing where the traffic light had just turned red.“All right，”I thought to myself，“I can beat the next light if I race ahead when the light changed.”‎ My mind and car were ready to go when suddenly my thought was broken by an unforgettable sight. A young couple，both blind, were walking arminarm across this busy crossing with cars racing by in every direction. The man was holding the hand of a little boy, while the woman was carrying a baby on her chest. Each of them had a white cane(手杖) directing them across the crossing.‎ I was moved. They were overcoming one of the most terrible disabilities—blindness. Suddenly my thought was interrupted by horror when I saw that the couple was not walking in the crosswalk(斑马线), but was instead walking directly toward the middle of the crossing. Not realizing the danger they were in, they were walking right into the path(路线) of oncoming cars. I was deeply concerned for the family because I didn’t know if the other drivers understood what was happening.‎ Paragraph 1：‎ As I watched, something amazing happened before my eyes.________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2：‎ The couple realized what was happening.________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ 17‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ One possible version：‎ Paragraph 1：‎ As I watched, something amazing happened before my eyes. Each car in every direction came to a stop. I hardly heard the noises of hard brakes or the horns. Nobody shouted “Get out of the way！” to them. Everything froze. In that moment, time seemed to stand still for this family. Amazed, I noticed that everyone’s attention was fixed on the couple. Suddenly the driver to my right reacted. Sticking his head out of his car, he shouted to the couple，“To your right. To your right！”Some other people joined him, shouting，“To your right！”‎ Paragraph 2：‎ The couple realized what was happening. So they adjusted their course as they followed the drivers’ instructions. Depending on their canes and the calls from some concerned people, they made it to the other side of the road. As they stepped onto the sidewalk, one thing struck me—they both turned around, gave a deep bow to all of us and then went on their way.‎ 17‎
