A
（2024·福建四校高二下聯考）Life beneath the sea surface can be lovely and lively. But many organisms （生物體） there produce poisonous chemicals to keep away from predators.Divers are now collecting such poisons as candidate drugs for human medicine.
Sharks aren’t the scariest things in the ocean for scientists who dive to work. Powerful currents， created where the ocean floor drops away， can be just as deadly. But the scientists who work underwater train to deal with these dangers. The rewards of research and underwater adventure are greater than the risks.
The sea may seem like a strange place to look for new drugs. But organisms in the ocean have had to adapt to a tough environment. The chemicals they make for survival might help people， too. More than 50 years ago， scientists discovered a new anti-cancer drug in a sea sponge. Since then， researchers have been hunting the seas for more of such useful natural products.
With the help of underwater robots and small submarines， scientists are searching the seas — from shallow reefs to the oceans’ great depths.
Microbes living in the Arctic’s cold waters break down their food using more different ways than organisms on land do. This process of turning food into energy for growth， activities and reproduction is called metabolism （新陳代謝）. These pathways also produce chemicals called “secondary metabolites”. One day they might also help people.
During a four-year project called PharmaSeas， scientists made thousands of extracts from those seafloor samples. In about a dozen of them， researchers found mixtures that can kill bacteria that some of today’s antibiotics cannot. Yet another mixture may reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
1.Why do some sea organisms produce poisonous chemicals？（　　）
A.To struggle for existence. B.To benefit other creatures.
C.To change their environment. D.To hide themselves in the sea.
2.What may threaten scientists’ lives when they work underwater according to the text？（　　）
A.The darkness in the deep ocean. B.Dangerous animals and currents.
C.Poisonous chemicals in the water. D.The ocean floors dropping away quickly.
3.What is special about the mixtures from seafloor samples？（　　）
A.They have the same effects as today’s medicine.
B.They can treat many diseases.
C.They have unique functions.
D.They can kill all bacteria.
4.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the passage？（　　）
A.Living Resources in the Ocean
B.Dangers of Diving in the Sea
C.Future Sources of Medicines
D.Diving for New Medicines

（2024·聊城高二下期末）The danger of AI is something that has kept the bright minds at Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute occupied since 2005.One of 23 full-time researchers， FHI Research Fellow Ben Garfinkel， strives to help capture the benefits and reduce the risks of artificial intelligence.He explains the danger of unregulated AI development like this，“In the relatively near-term， there are concerns around autonomous weapons systems， job loss from automation， and new forms of cyber attacks.In the long run， as AI systems become more capable or even smarter than humans， it might also be hard to ensure that they will behave according to our own moral values.”
Some highly regarded scientists like the late Steven Hawking and entrepreneur Elon Musk， have expressed concern that a super-intelligent AI could escape our control and do things we won’t like or be able to stop.Indeed， Musk recently warned that “AI is far more dangerous than nuclear weapons.So why do we have no regulatory oversight？ This is crazy.”
Still， there are those who think these fears are overblown.Richard Socher， chief scientist at US software company Salesforce has written，“We face major issues around prejudice and diversity that are much more important than robot uprisings.”
“The more control we have in advance， the better the transition to the machine intelligence era will be，” advises FHI Director Nick Bostrum.
It must also be remembered that just because a disaster hasn’t yet happened doesn’t mean the risks aren’t increasing.Indeed Martin Rees warns that “the probabilities of disasters caused by misuse of technology are rising year by year”.
The worrying thing is that given the threat that these technologies pose， relatively little resource is being made use of to investigate how to deal with these risks effectively.As Martin Rees points out， “There’s a huge effort aimed at analysing and trying to reduce familiar risks.But there can’t be even 100 people worldwide whose main focus is on really extreme risks.”
5.What attitude did Ben Garfinkel take towards AI？（　　）
A.A little confused. B.A little ambiguous.
C.Cautious and worried. D.Confident and hopeful.
6.What can we infer about Richard Socher？（　　）
A.He is conservative. B.He is open-minded.
C.He has a sense of humour. D.He lacks a sense of responsibility.
7.What message is conveyed in the last paragraph？（　　）
A.Much remains to be done to develop AI.
B.Great achievements have been made in AI.
C.We haven’t done enough to prevent AI risks.
D.AI scientists are working with great efficiency.
8.How does the author develop this passage？（　　）
A.By listing some facts. B.By providing some reasons.
C.By analysing some phenomena. D.By quoting some famous people.

Last March， Margarito drove to visit his mother who lived in the countryside.When he set off for home， Margarito’s mother looked at the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm.Worried about her son’s safety， she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival.
With his mother’s words in mind， Margarito approached the main road carefully.Soon， it started to rain heavily.Eager to get home， Margarito began to drive faster.Two hours later， he came to a bumpy mountain road that had been flooded by a creek （小溪）.Margarito， driving a four-wheel drive truck， figured that he would be OK.At that moment， he didn’t realise that such a thought would be a big mistake.
It was halfway across the creek that an unfortunate incident took place： The rushing waters grabbed hold of his vehicle， pushing it off the road and sending it down a rocky creek bed.The truck finally stopped some 80 feet away.Margarito’s problems only grew from there as the water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bank at a 45-degree angle， making it difficult for him to open the driver’s side door.Injured and trapped inside with the muddy water rising quickly， Margarito was certain he was going to die.Shaking with fear， he was at a loss about what to do.
On the road right behind Margarito were a delivery worker named Steve and his nephew Mike， who were on the way to deliver furniture to customers in the countryside.They witnessed the horrible incident， and when Margarito’s truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing creek， Steve quickly began to take action.First， he grabbed a rope from the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the truck.

語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。有些海洋生物所產生的有毒化學物質對人類很有用，科學家們現在正在尋找其中可以用于治療人類疾病的化學物質。
1.A　細節理解題。根據第一段中的But many organisms （生物體） there produce poisonous chemicals to keep away from predators.可知，許多海洋生物會產生有毒的化學物質來抵御捕食者，也就是說，海洋生物產生有毒的化學物質是為了生存。
2.B　細節理解題。根據第二段第一、二句可知，對于需要潛水工作的科學家來說，鯊魚并不是海洋中最可怕的東西，因海底落差產生的強大洋流也同樣是致命的。由此可知，當科學家在水下工作時，危險的動物和洋流會威脅他們的生命。
3.C　推理判斷題。根據最后一段最后兩句可知，科學家們在來自海底的樣本里發現了混合物，它們可以殺死現在的一些抗生素不能殺死的細菌。有一種混合物還能減輕阿爾茨海默病的癥狀。由此可推知，這些來自海底樣本的混合物有特殊的功能。
4.D　標題歸納題。根據全文內容尤其是第一段最后一句可知，本文主要講述了科學家們潛到海里收集各種海洋生物產生的化學物質，用于制作藥物。因此D項（潛水尋找新藥）適合作文章標題。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。人工智能的發展給人類帶來了巨大的挑戰，很多科學家開始意識到這一威脅，呼吁我們開始防范這一風險。
5.C　觀點態度題。根據第一段可知，Ben Garfinkel重點強調了人工智能對人類可能帶來的潛在風險和威脅。由此判斷，他對人工智能的態度是謹慎和擔憂的。
6.B　推理判斷題。根據第三段可知，Richard Socher認為人們夸大了人工智能可能帶來的風險，他更強調去除偏見并倡導多樣化。由此判斷，他心胸寬廣。
7.C　細節理解題。根據最后一段可知，我們目前幾乎沒有采取多少有效措施來防范人工智能發展可能帶來的風險，我們只是關注那些人們熟悉的風險。
8.D　推理判斷題。綜合全文可知，作者主要通過大量引用一些科學家及研究人員的話來展開文章。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者發現自己有嚴重的臉盲癥以后生活發生的變化以及作者對這件事態度的轉變。
9.B　根據下文作者的提問Aren’t you supposed to be in London？可知，作者對于看到明明已經離開這個城市去倫敦的 Sandy 這件事情感到很意外。
10.A　根據上下文可知，Sandy應該是盯著作者說話。
11.C　根據上文I then found out that I have a rare disease — face blindness.可知，因為“我”發現自己有臉盲癥，所以“我”去看了醫生。選項中和 found out 意思最接近的是discovery。
12.C　根據上下文可知，作者對于這件事情不是很在乎，反正其他人也不關心自己是否有臉盲癥。
13.D　根據常識可知，臉盲癥是一種認不清人的臉、對別人的臉型失去辨認能力的一種病，可以推斷它是和大腦有關的。
14.A　根據上文的關鍵詞 nothing 可知，臉盲癥目前沒有特別好的治療方式。promising有前途的；有希望的。
15.C　根據上文After a sad goodbye， I fled in tears.可知，作者應該是很絕望的。
16.A　根據上文Dad gave me some important advice可知，本空所表達的含義是“建議”。
17.B　根據下文If they smiled， I stopped to chat.可知，作者會對望向自己方向的人報以微笑，如果對方也笑了，他就會停下來和對方聊天。
18.B　根據上文作者在校園里和他人聊天的方式可知，對方不一定是作者認識的，所以作者應該是很擅長和陌生人聊天。
19.D　根據上文可知，作者有臉盲癥，所以生日會上的很多朋友他都不能夠認出。
20.C　根據下文可知，實際上，作者是可以通過參加課程的方式治療臉盲癥的，但是他并沒有，而是把時間花在了自己喜歡的事情上面。
21.D　根據上文的would rather 可知，作者應該是寧愿把時間花在自己喜歡的事情上。
22.B　根據上句可知，作者在認出鳥的種類時很激動。
23.D　根據下文I’ve learnt to see the world可知，臉盲癥對于作者來說是一件好事情。

Stop Plastic Pollution， Protect the Sea
As is known to all， plastic pollution is becoming so serious that our seas have been greatly damaged.It is reported that those microplastics have come to our dinner table together with the seafood we eat.What a tragic fact！
It’s high time that we took effective measures to improve the situation.What we need to do is simple — stop using all single-use plastic products， such as plastic bags， plastic cups， and plastic tableware.Instead， we should practice the 3Rs： Reduce， Reuse， and Recycle.
The sea provides countless benefits for the Earth and all the creatures on it.Let’s take action to protect it for you， for me， and for our planet！

　　Next， he turned to Mike and yelled，“Give me a rock！” With the rock， he hit the window over and over but had little success.Steve then shouted to Margarito to move away from the window.He balanced himself on the truck， leaned back and threw the rock at the window.Finally， the glass broke and Steve kicked in the remaining pieces of glass.Relieved， Margarito reached out for Steve’s hand and was rescued.The two men escaped and returned to safety.
Margarito was about to thank Steve and Mike when the mobile phone in his jacket pocket rang.With trembling hands， Margarito took out the phone and pressed it to his ear.His mother’s anxious voice came over the phone，“Are you home yet？ Everything’s good？” Tears welled up in his eyes at the familiar sound of concern.Margarito choked up as he explained the accident to his mom and comforted her.Hanging up the phone， he turned to Steve and Mike and sincerely thanked both of them.Cold as the rain was， great warmth filled his heart like never before.

Step 1　品教材課文 Step 2　析寫作手法
Text 1 When people talk of exploring the sea more， they usually mean exploiting it.Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more. More exploration means more pollution.The Deepwater Horizon spilled over 200 million gallons of oil into the sea in 2010.Plastic pollution is also bad， killing many birds and fish， and has even been found in our tap water. Mining for resources is very damaging， especially in the Arctic.Because of climate change， there is less ice now， which means we can look for more fossil fuels further north.But if we burn these， the ice will melt more and this negative cycle will continue.Climate change is warning us that something is very wrong. Overfishing is another problem.Whales and dolphins are also hunted for their meat or for so-called research.Although this was banned in 1982，some countries are still “murdering” these intelligent creatures without mercy. The sea is home to life， not human beings’ possessions.It is huge， but it is more sensitive than we think.If we do not protect it， future generations will not forgive us. Text 2 To truly understand our planet， we must explore the oceans which cover most of it.Opponents may be concerned，but sea exploration is important for our future.For example，scientific research ships can help address important issues such as climate change.We need to understand what is happening to our planet so that we can take action.Therefore， more research is necessary. 　　Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its resources better. Logging new species will improve our understanding of life on the earth.It may help us discover new medicines， as well as new sources of food and energy.Accessing the deep ocean may also help us to predict events such as earthquakes. The population of the world is growing and we need new resources for future development.There are probably vast amounts of resources under the sea and ice， not just oil and gas but also valuable minerals. Of course， there are still environmental risks.However， these should be balanced with economic needs. Hopefully， as technology improves， we may have more options for managing this balance. 學語言： Text 1： 第二段最后一句中使用了動詞-ing短語作結果狀語（killing many birds and fish）；第三段使用了非限制性定語從句（which means we can look for more fossil fuels further north）。 Text 2： 第一段使用了動詞不定式短語作目的狀語（To truly understand our planet）和so that引導的目的狀語從句；第三段使用了not just ...but （also） ...句式；最后一段使用了as引導的時間狀語從句（as technology improves），這些高級句式和語法的運用使得文章精彩紛呈。 學結構： Text 1： 本文指出：海洋探索對海洋造成了很大的傷害，弊大于利。第一段開門見山地指出海洋探索往往意味著對海洋的過度開發，導致許多問題。第二至第四段分別闡述海洋開發帶來的問題，包括海洋污染、氣候變化、過度捕撈等。第五段作者總結全文，發出呼吁：海洋是生命的家園，保護海洋迫在眉睫。 Text 2： 　　本文第一句話闡明觀點：要更好地了解我們的星球，就必須探索占據地球絕大部分面積的海洋。緊接著，作者就反對者的擔憂提出第一個分論點，即為了更好地理解和解決氣候變化等全球問題，我們需要進行海洋探索活動。第二段是第二個分論點，指出海洋探索有利于人類更好地利用資源。第三段是第三個分論點，指出海洋探索事關未來的人類生存。第四、五兩段作者再次回應反對意見，指出在環保與發展之間需要尋求平衡，并相信隨著技術進步，人類將更有能力取得這種平衡。
【參考譯文】
文本一
人們在談論擴大海洋探索的時候，通常指的是海洋開發。海洋探索已經造成了許多問題，并將繼續引發更多問題。
擴大探索意味著污染加劇。2010年“深水地平線”號鉆井平臺在海中溢出了兩億多加侖的石油。塑料污染也十分嚴重，導致許多鳥類和魚類死亡，甚至在我們的自來水中也發現了塑料污染。
資源開采極具破壞性，尤其是在北極地區。由于氣候變化，現在冰川減少了，這意味著我們可以在更北的地方尋找更多的化石燃料。但是，如果我們燒盡這些燃料，冰川將融化得更多，這一不良循環將持續下去。氣候變化正警告我們情況不妙。
過度捕撈是另一個問題。鯨魚和海豚也遭到捕殺，成為盤中美食或用于所謂的研究。盡管早在1982年就已禁止，但有的國家仍在無情地“謀殺”這些聰明的生物。
海洋是生命的家園，而不是人類的私產。海洋廣闊無垠，但比我們想象的更為敏感。如果我們不保護它，子孫后代將不會原諒我們。
文本二
為了真正了解我們的星球，我們必須探索覆蓋其表面大部分的海洋。反對者也許會憂心忡忡，但是海洋探索對我們的未來十分重要。例如，科學考察船可以幫助應對像氣候變化這種重要的問題。我們需要了解我們的星球正在發生什么，這樣我們才能采取行動。因此，有必要開展更多的研究。
深入了解海洋也有助于我們更好地管理其資源。記載新物種將提升我們對地球上的生命的了解。這可能還會幫助我們發現新的藥物，以及新的食物和能源來源。深海探索還有可能會幫助我們預測地震等事件。
世界人口正在不斷增長，我們需要新的資源來維系未來的發展。海洋和冰川之下可能蘊藏著大量的資源，不僅僅是石油和天然氣，還有珍貴的礦物。
當然，環境風險仍然存在。但是，這些風險應該與經濟需求相平衡。
隨著技術的進步，我們有望會有更多的選擇來駕馭這一平衡。

Dear Editor，
Recently our class has had a discussion about whether sea exploration should be carried out.
Some of the students are in favour of sea exploration.They say sea exploration has made it possible for people to discover new medicines， as well as new sources of food and energy.Others are against it.In their opinion， although sea exploration might help improve our understanding of life on the earth， it might bring about marine pollution，which finally leads the ocean creatures to death.It might also cause ecosystem destruction.
Personally speaking，sea exploration should be balanced with economic needs.Hopefully， as technology improves， we may have more options for achieving this balance.

Step 1　品教材課文
Text 1
　　When people talk of exploring the sea more， they usually mean
exploiting it.Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue
to cause more.
　　More exploration means more pollution.The Deepwater Horizon
spilled over 200 million gallons of oil into the sea in 2010.Plastic pollution
is also bad， killing many birds and fish， and has even been found in our
tap water.
　　Mining for resources is very damaging， especially in the
Arctic.Because of climate change， there is less ice now， which means
we can look for more fossil fuels further north.But if we burn these， the
ice will melt more and this negative cycle will continue.Climate change is
warning us that something is very wrong.
　　Overfishing is another problem.Whales and dolphins are also hunted
for their meat or for so-called research.Although this was banned in
1982，some countries are still “murdering” these intelligent creatures
without mercy.
　　The sea is home to life， not human beings’ possessions.It is
huge， but it is more sensitive than we think.If we do not protect it，
future generations will not forgive us.
Text 2
　　To truly understand our planet， we must explore the oceans which
cover most of it.Opponents may be concerned，but sea exploration is
important for our future.For example，scientific research ships can help
address important issues such as climate change.We need to understand
what is happening to our planet so that we can take action.Therefore，
more research is necessary.
　　Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its
resources better. Logging new species will improve our understanding of
life on the earth.It may help us discover new medicines， as well as new
sources of food and energy.Accessing the deep ocean may also help us to
predict events such as earthquakes.
　　The population of the world is growing and we need new resources
for future development.There are probably vast amounts of resources
under the sea and ice， not just oil and gas but also valuable minerals.
　　Of course， there are still environmental risks.However， these
should be balanced with economic needs.
Hopefully， as technology improves， we may have more options
for managing this balance.
Step 2　析寫作手法

Text 1：
　　第二段最后一句中使用了動詞-ing短語作結果狀語（killing many
birds and fish）；第三段使用了非限制性定語從句（which means we
can look for more fossil fuels further north）。
Text 2：
　　第一段使用了動詞不定式短語作目的狀語（To truly understand

　　本文指出：海洋探索對海洋造成了很大的傷害，弊大于利。第一
段開門見山地指出海洋探索往往意味著對海洋的過度開發，導致許多
問題。第二至第四段分別闡述海洋開發帶來的問題，包括海洋污染、

　　本文第一句話闡明觀點：要更好地了解我們的星球，就必須探索
占據地球絕大部分面積的海洋。緊接著，作者就反對者的擔憂提出第
一個分論點，即為了更好地理解和解決氣候變化等全球問題，我們需
要進行海洋探索活動。第二段是第二個分論點，指出海洋探索有利于
人類更好地利用資源。第三段是第三個分論點，指出海洋探索事關未
來的人類生存。第四、五兩段作者再次回應反對意見，指出在環保與
發展之間需要尋求平衡，并相信隨著技術進步，人類將更有能力取得
這種平衡。
【參考譯文】
文本一
　　人們在談論擴大海洋探索的時候，通常指的是海洋開發。海洋探
索已經造成了許多問題，并將繼續引發更多問題。
　　擴大探索意味著污染加劇。2010年“深水地平線”號鉆井平臺在
海中溢出了兩億多加侖的石油。塑料污染也十分嚴重，導致許多鳥類
和魚類死亡，甚至在我們的自來水中也發現了塑料污染。
　　資源開采極具破壞性，尤其是在北極地區。由于氣候變化，現在
冰川減少了，這意味著我們可以在更北的地方尋找更多的化石燃料。
但是，如果我們燒盡這些燃料，冰川將融化得更多，這一不良循環將
持續下去。氣候變化正警告我們情況不妙。
　　過度捕撈是另一個問題。鯨魚和海豚也遭到捕殺，成為盤中美食
或用于所謂的研究。盡管早在1982年就已禁止，但有的國家仍在無情
地“謀殺”這些聰明的生物。
　　海洋是生命的家園，而不是人類的私產。海洋廣闊無垠，但比我
們想象的更為敏感。如果我們不保護它，子孫后代將不會原諒我們。
文本二
　　為了真正了解我們的星球，我們必須探索覆蓋其表面大部分的海
洋。反對者也許會憂心忡忡，但是海洋探索對我們的未來十分重要。
例如，科學考察船可以幫助應對像氣候變化這種重要的問題。我們需
要了解我們的星球正在發生什么，這樣我們才能采取行動。因此，有
必要開展更多的研究。
　　深入了解海洋也有助于我們更好地管理其資源。記載新物種將提
升我們對地球上的生命的了解。這可能還會幫助我們發現新的藥物，
以及新的食物和能源來源。深海探索還有可能會幫助我們預測地震等
事件。
　　世界人口正在不斷增長，我們需要新的資源來維系未來的發展。
海洋和冰川之下可能蘊藏著大量的資源，不僅僅是石油和天然氣，還
有珍貴的礦物。
　　當然，環境風險仍然存在。但是，這些風險應該與經濟需求
相平衡。
　　隨著技術的進步，我們有望會有更多的選擇來駕馭這一平衡。

　　（2024·福建四校高二下聯考）Life beneath the sea surface can be
lovely and lively. But many organisms （生物體） there produce
poisonous chemicals to keep away from predators.Divers are now
collecting such poisons as candidate drugs for human medicine.
　　Sharks aren’t the scariest things in the ocean for scientists who dive
to work. Powerful currents， created where the ocean floor drops away，
can be just as deadly. But the scientists who work underwater train to deal
with these dangers. The rewards of research and underwater adventure are
greater than the risks.
　　The sea may seem like a strange place to look for new drugs. But
organisms in the ocean have had to adapt to a tough environment. The
chemicals they make for survival might help people， too. More than 50
years ago， scientists discovered a new anti-cancer drug in a sea sponge.
Since then， researchers have been hunting the seas for more of such
useful natural products.
　　With the help of underwater robots and small submarines， scientists
are searching the seas — from shallow reefs to the oceans’ great depths.
　　Microbes living in the Arctic’s cold waters break down their food
using more different ways than organisms on land do. This process of
turning food into energy for growth， activities and reproduction is called
metabolism （新陳代謝）. These pathways also produce chemicals
called “secondary metabolites”. One day they might also help people.
　　During a four-year project called PharmaSeas， scientists made
thousands of extracts from those seafloor samples. In about a dozen of
them， researchers found mixtures that can kill bacteria that some of
today’s antibiotics cannot. Yet another mixture may reduce the
symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.

病的化學物質。
1. Why do some sea organisms produce poisonous chemicals？（　　）
A. To struggle for existence.
B. To benefit other creatures.
C. To change their environment.
D. To hide themselves in the sea.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第一段中的But many organisms （生
物體） there produce poisonous chemicals to keep away from
predators.可知，許多海洋生物會產生有毒的化學物質來抵御捕食
者，也就是說，海洋生物產生有毒的化學物質是為了生存。
2. What may threaten scientists’ lives when they work underwater
according to the text？（　　）
A. The darkness in the deep ocean.
B. Dangerous animals and currents.
C. Poisonous chemicals in the water.
D. The ocean floors dropping away quickly.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第二段第一、二句可知，對于需要潛
水工作的科學家來說，鯊魚并不是海洋中最可怕的東西，因海底落
差產生的強大洋流也同樣是致命的。由此可知，當科學家在水下工
作時，危險的動物和洋流會威脅他們的生命。
3. What is special about the mixtures from seafloor samples？（　　）
A. They have the same effects as today’s medicine.
B. They can treat many diseases.
C. They have unique functions.
D. They can kill all bacteria.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據最后一段最后兩句可知，科學家們在
來自海底的樣本里發現了混合物，它們可以殺死現在的一些抗生素
不能殺死的細菌。有一種混合物還能減輕阿爾茨海默病的癥狀。由
此可推知，這些來自海底樣本的混合物有特殊的功能。
4. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the passage？（　　）
A. Living Resources in the Ocean
B. Dangers of Diving in the Sea
C. Future Sources of Medicines
D. Diving for New Medicines

　　（2024·聊城高二下期末）The danger of AI is something that has
kept the bright minds at Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute occupied
since 2005.One of 23 full-time researchers， FHI Research Fellow Ben
Garfinkel， strives to help capture the benefits and reduce the risks of
artificial intelligence.He explains the danger of unregulated AI
development like this，“In the relatively near-term， there are concerns
around autonomous weapons systems， job loss from automation， and
new forms of cyber attacks.In the long run， as AI systems become more
capable or even smarter than humans， it might also be hard to ensure that
they will behave according to our own moral values.”
　　Some highly regarded scientists like the late Steven Hawking and
entrepreneur Elon Musk， have expressed concern that a super-intelligent
AI could escape our control and do things we won’t like or be able to
stop.Indeed， Musk recently warned that “AI is far more dangerous than
nuclear weapons.So why do we have no regulatory oversight？ This is
crazy.”
　　Still， there are those who think these fears are overblown.Richard
Socher， chief scientist at US software company Salesforce has written，
“We face major issues around prejudice and diversity that are much more
important than robot uprisings.”
　　“The more control we have in advance， the better the transition to
the machine intelligence era will be，” advises FHI Director Nick
Bostrum.
　　It must also be remembered that just because a disaster hasn’t yet
happened doesn’t mean the risks aren’t increasing.Indeed Martin Rees
warns that “the probabilities of disasters caused by misuse of technology
are rising year by year”.
　　The worrying thing is that given the threat that these technologies
pose， relatively little resource is being made use of to investigate how to
deal with these risks effectively.As Martin Rees points out， “There’s
a huge effort aimed at analysing and trying to reduce familiar risks.But
there can’t be even 100 people worldwide whose main focus is on really
extreme risks.”

5. What attitude did Ben Garfinkel take towards AI？（　　）
A. A little confused.
B. A little ambiguous.
C. Cautious and worried.
D. Confident and hopeful.
解析： 　觀點態度題。根據第一段可知，Ben Garfinkel重點強調
了人工智能對人類可能帶來的潛在風險和威脅。由此判斷，他對人
工智能的態度是謹慎和擔憂的。
6. What can we infer about Richard Socher？（　　）
A. He is conservative.
B. He is open-minded.
C. He has a sense of humour.
D. He lacks a sense of responsibility.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第三段可知，Richard Socher認為人們
夸大了人工智能可能帶來的風險，他更強調去除偏見并倡導多樣
化。由此判斷，他心胸寬廣。
7. What message is conveyed in the last paragraph？（　　）
A. Much remains to be done to develop AI.
B. Great achievements have been made in AI.
C. We haven’t done enough to prevent AI risks.
D. AI scientists are working with great efficiency.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據最后一段可知，我們目前幾乎沒有采
取多少有效措施來防范人工智能發展可能帶來的風險，我們只是關
注那些人們熟悉的風險。
8. How does the author develop this passage？（　　）
A. By listing some facts.
B. By providing some reasons.
C. By analysing some phenomena.
D. By quoting some famous people.
解析： 　推理判斷題。綜合全文可知，作者主要通過大量引用一
些科學家及研究人員的話來展開文章。

Stop Plastic Pollution， Protect the Sea
　　As is known to all， plastic pollution is becoming so serious that our
seas have been greatly damaged.It is reported that those microplastics
have come to our dinner table together with the seafood we eat.What a
tragic fact！
　　It’s high time that we took effective measures to improve the
situation.What we need to do is simple — stop using all single-use plastic
products， such as plastic bags， plastic cups， and plastic
tableware.Instead， we should practice the 3Rs： Reduce， Reuse， and
Recycle.
　　The sea provides countless benefits for the Earth and all the creatures
on it.Let’s take action to protect it for you， for me， and for our
planet！
　The Students’ Union
Ⅳ.讀后續寫
　　閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構
成一篇完整的短文。
　　Last March， Margarito drove to visit his mother who lived in the
countryside.When he set off for home， Margarito’s mother looked at
the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm.Worried about her
son’s safety， she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way
home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival.
　　With his mother’s words in mind， Margarito approached the main
road carefully.Soon， it started to rain heavily.Eager to get home，
Margarito began to drive faster.Two hours later， he came to a bumpy
mountain road that had been flooded by a creek （小溪）.Margarito，
driving a four-wheel drive truck， figured that he would be OK. At that
moment， he didn’t realise that such a thought would be a big mistake.
　　It was halfway across the creek that an unfortunate incident took
place： The rushing waters grabbed hold of his vehicle， pushing it off the
road and sending it down a rocky creek bed.The truck finally stopped
some 80 feet away.Margarito’s problems only grew from there as the
water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bank at a 45-degree
angle， making it difficult for him to open the driver’s side door.Injured
and trapped inside with the muddy water rising quickly， Margarito was
certain he was going to die.Shaking with fear， he was at a loss about
what to do.
　　On the road right behind Margarito were a delivery worker named
Steve and his nephew Mike， who were on the way to deliver furniture to
customers in the countryside.They witnessed the horrible incident， and
when Margarito’s truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing
creek， Steve quickly began to take action.First， he grabbed a rope from
the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the
truck.
注意：1.續寫詞數應為150左右；
2. 請按如下格式作答。
　　Next， he turned to Mike and yelled，“Give me a rock！” 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　
　　
Margarito was about to thank Steve and Mike when the mobile
phone in his jacket pocket rang. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　
參考范文：
　　Next， he turned to Mike and yelled，“Give me a rock！” With
the rock， he hit the window over and over but had little success.Steve
then shouted to Margarito to move away from the window.He balanced
himself on the truck， leaned back and threw the rock at the
window.Finally， the glass broke and Steve kicked in the remaining
pieces of glass.Relieved， Margarito reached out for Steve’s hand and
was rescued.The two men escaped and returned to safety.
Margarito was about to thank Steve and Mike when the mobile
phone in his jacket pocket rang.With trembling hands， Margarito took
out the phone and pressed it to his ear.His mother’s anxious voice came
over the phone，“Are you home yet？ Everything’s good？” Tears
welled up in his eyes at the familiar sound of concern.Margarito choked up
as he explained the accident to his mom and comforted her.Hanging up the
phone， he turned to Steve and Mike and sincerely thanked both of
them.Cold as the rain was， great warmth filled his heart like never
before.
