same kind of technology.One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence,or AI,is agriculture.Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money,while reducing environment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is from Switzerland.It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm.The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds.Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂).Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun.It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles.A farmer can also control the equipment through a smartphone.The cofounder of the company says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods.This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemicals in the exact place required to kill the weeds.Currently,farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based.The company has a system called “See & Spray”.The systemwhich connects to the back of a tractoris also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds.It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow.The vice-president of business development for the company,explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition.“The first time the machine saw a pigweed,it didnt know what kind of plant it was.But we taught itby giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweedand now its an expert in pigweed.”1.How will AI benefit agriculture?A.It will fund agriculture research.B.It contributes to low-cost farming.C.It can avoid harmful chemicals.D.It frees all farmers from field work.答案B解析推理判断题。根据第一段的“One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence,or AI,is agriculture.Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money,while reducing environment-harming chemicals.”可知,人工智能通过降低成本造福农业。故选B项。2.What do the products of the two companies have in common?A.They use recognition technology.B.They are powered by solar energy.C.They are connected with smartphones.D.They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.答案A解析细节理解题。根据第二段的“One of the companies is from Switzerland.It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm.”和最后一段的“The systemwhich connects to the back of a tractoris also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds.”可知,这两家公司的产品的共同之处是他们都使用识别技术。故选A项。3.What is mainly talked about in the text?A.The experiment in farming robots.B.New trend in artificial intelligence.C.Modern See & Spray technology.D.Artificial intelligence in agriculture.答案D解析主旨大意题。第一段的“One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence,or AI,is agriculture.”是全文的主题句,再结合全文内容可知,这篇文章主要讲了农业中的人工智能。故选D项。五、七选五阅读理解I dont believe artificial intelligence (AI) could replace my teaching career.I have always been interested in human connection,and the ways in which I can use these connections to inspire change and make a difference.1,there are other ways where AI could make a more efficient and effective difference than I could on my own. My teaching experiences over the past several years have been creative and inspiring.I believe that the job of educators extends beyond simply teaching students a set curriculum.2,they must constantly reflect on ways to better their teaching,and they must inspire their students to be the best versions of themselves.And now with the help of AI,they could achieve these goals much easier. 3.First,AI can be used to promote fundamental skills,such as mathematical education and vocabulary lessons.Additionally,I see AI being used for such necessary tasks as answering questions and grading assignments.Thus I could focus my attention to establishing human connection,individualising lesson plans and inspiring my students. 4.I believe AI could provide a strong basis for educational equality around the world.According to a survey,close to 800 million people worldwide are functionally illiterate(不识字的).Due to its ability to efficiently pass knowledge across large groups of people fewer teachers may be needed in some schools.5. A.Since students will always need a human teacherB.The benefit AI brings is far beyond my own classroomC.I think AI is a powerful assistant to my future classroomD.The need for students to learn how to use AI will also growE.Although human connection may never be able to be fully replaced by AIF.This could be an opportunity for students everywhere to receive equal educationG.They must observe and get to know their students in order to individualise educational plans答案1.E2.G3.C4.B5.F
