Two of the US’ top chipmakers—NVIDIA and AMD-were ordered to stop exports of two high-end chips to China on Aug 31. The ban ____26____ sophisticated (精密的) chips for graphics processing units (GPUs); which have been widely used in applications including AI and creative production. This came after US President Joe Biden signed an order to pass the $52.7 billion (about 369.5 billion yuan) semiconductor chip manufacturing subsidy (补贴) and research law on Aug 25. It aims to ____27____ efforts to “make the United States more competitive with China’s science and 第 5 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) technology efforts”, Reuters noted. Biden also signed the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 into law on Aug 9. According to the act, chip makers that shift their factories to the US can receive subsidies and tax benefits with ____28____ conditions that restrict US companies from increasing investments in China for 10 years. “The US and its allies,” Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google and a financier for the Bill Clinton, Obama and Biden presidential campaigns, said in March, “should utilize targeted export controls on high-end semiconductor manufacturing equipment... to protect ____29____ technical advantages and slow the advancement of China’s semiconductor industry”. In ____30____ to the US latest act, Woo Jin-hoon, a guest professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, wrote for China Daily, this is “a move that can be profitable for the US in the short term, but harmful in the long run”. The design, manufacturing and even raw materials of a complete and complex product like semiconductors (especially chips) are usually ____31____ across many different countries and regions, forming a huge trade network. No matter how hard countries or regions try to support their own manufacturing bases and ____32____ their production, a certain degree of interdependence among countries and regions is unavoidable, China Daily commented. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on Sept 1 at a press ____33____ that the US move is typical “sci-tech hegemony (霸权)”. “With its technological advantages the US has abused the concept of national security and its state power to , ____34____ down on the development of ____35____ economies and developing countries,” said Wang. “The move violates market economy principles, harms international economic and trade orders and disrupts the stability of global industrial and supply chains.” III. Reading Comprehension (45 分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Background noise—like the chatter in a coffee shop or the drone of passing traffic—might slow our reading speed, but according to a study of Russian readers, it doesn’t ____36____ how our brain understands written text. ____37____, if you’re wondering whether you should be listening to podcasts or music while working, the 第 6 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) study has some interesting points to make. In particular, it examined how we might change our reading style to compensate for auditory noise and visual distractions such as typos or poor formatting. “Overall, previous studies reported a harmful effect of both auditory and visual noise on reading fluency and ____38____, though their results varied,” write linguistics researcher Nina Zdorova and colleagues. “So far, none of the studies exploring the influence of noise ____39____ it in the framework of the language processing theories.” One of the language processing theories examined was the noisy channel model, which proposes that our brain deals with noise by looking at the meaning of ____40____ words more and at entire sentences less. We then use a bit of smart guesswork to ____41____ the overall meaning and relationships between words. The second theory is the good enough model; that’s when our brains aren’t analyzing every single detail of a text but instead only grabbing enough words for a ‘good enough’ understanding. By focusing less on the precise words, our brains can ____42____ some cognitive resources to deal with noise. To see how reading was affected by noise ____43____ these models, the researchers ran two experiments: one on auditory noise (71 participants) and one on visual noise (70 participants). When it came to the auditory noise test, background chatter from overlapping podcasts caused people to spend longer looking at the key section of sentences before completing their reading. This extra time could ____44____ the noise, meaning sentence comprehension isn’t affected by it. In the visual noise test, comprehension remained the same while reading speed _____45_____. That’s a bit _____46_____ considering previous studies, but the researchers think people just wanted to finish the task, with the visual noise an uncomfortable distraction. “In both experiments, we observed that longer total reading time was _____47_____ with an accuracy increase for incorrect sentences,” write the researchers. There’s a lot going on in this study, but overall it’s a bigger win for the good-enough language processing theory and an indication that auditory and visual noise doesn’t make us _____48_____ any more or less on any particular comprehension method while we’re reading. With so many variables to measure in terms of what’s being read and what the _____49_____ noise is, further study is required to learn more. _____50_____ potential distractions may not interrupt your reading as much as you think. 36. A. reinforce B. estimate C. affect D. interpret 37. A. First of all B. For example C. Above all D. To start with 38. A. context B. efficiency C. comprehension D. device 39.

A. associated B. compared C. replaced D. mixed 48. A. take B. set C. rely D. base 49. A. accompanying B. strange C. deafening D. distant 50. A. Therefore B. However C. Instead D. Otherwise Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Like expensive watches that never break, the world’s best airports can be boring. You land, move through passport control and check into a hotel within minutes. The experience is pleasant, but not memorable. The worst airports have more characters. To adapt Tolstoy, lovely airports are all alike, but every wretched airport is wretched in its own way. To work out which is the world’s worst airport, we conducted a survey of our correspondents who travelled a lot. It attracted more, and more passionate, responses than nearly any other internal survey we have done. Although each awful airport is unique, four themes occur again and again: danger, bullying by officials, theft and delay. Sometimes, all these enhance each other. For example, it takes ages to get through Lubumbashi airport (in the Democratic Republic of Congo) because security officials slow things down in the hope that passengers will give them “un Cadeau” to hurry up. If you hand over $1, they let you board without your bags getting checked at all. Such deals make air travel in places like Congo slower, riskier, costlier and much more unpleasant. Air travellers make tempting targets for thieves. They are rich enough to afford an air ticket, which in many places makes them rich indeed. They carry luggage, some of it valuable. They are often far from home and unfamiliar with local rules. And airports are full of choke points through which travellers must pass if they are to 第 8 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) board their planes, creating opportunities for dishonest officials to charge them. The ones in Manila are especially creative. Some have been known to plant bullets in luggage so they can “find” them and demand money not to have the owners arrested. Rules change at borders, and some airport officials enforce them mindlessly. One correspondent recalls that in Santiago, Chile: “I once got detained for two hours for failing to declare an unopened, sealed bag of almonds. I then had to write a declaration expressing my regret for bringing the nuts. When I failed to do so without cracking up I was threatened with arrest. The lady next to me was being interrogated for carrying a lone banana.” Poor countries have an excuse for poor airports. Rich countries do not, which is perhaps why travellers are particularly annoyed to find grottiness (恶心) in, say, Brussels, the heart of the European Union. Our Charlemagne columnist writes of Charleroi, its second airport: “It is dirty and crowded, and has terrible food. The planes leave and land at unreasonble hours. And the only real way into town is a coach that runs every 30 minutes and is frequently overbooked: more than once I’ve queued in the rain only to see it drive off as I reach the front.” 51. The last sentence of the first paragraph implies that _______. A. each bad airport is unique B. good airports are hard to find C. awful airports have a lot in common D. the world’s best airports are not that good 52. Lubumbashi airport is mentioned in paragraph 3 in order to _______. A. explain how delay occurs in African airports B. illustrate how the four themes are interrelated C. argue against the necessity of airport security officials D. give an example of what $1 means to people in Congo 53. The phrase “choke points” (paragraph 4) is closet in meaning to “_______”. A. agents B. passengers C. stores D. barriers 54. What can be learned about Charleroi? A. It is located in a rich country. B. It used to be dirty and crowded. C. It used to be close to the city center. D. It is the country’s second largest airport. (B) Yvonne Morones, who has a pet dog named Scamp the Tramp, is talking with the Pet Journal about Scamp. 第 9 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) 76 When I saw Scamp on Petfinder, all of a sudden I understood what love was like. I suddenly found I loved him because I fell in love with his face. What did you know about him when you adopted him? He’d been living on the street in Compton, California, and people were feeding him McDonald’s. And his name was Muffin Man, which didn’t seem to fit him at all. What do you do to give him that bed head look? It’s au naturel! He does get a mango shampoo and a coconut conditioner, but these gray dreads just appear on his head, back, and tail. The pet hairdresser says his hair is uncontrollable. Scamp works with you as a social therapy dog too. How do people react to his unusual looks? The first time he went to the senior center with me, the seniors just laughed and said, “Yvonne, what have you got there?” Then they fell in love with him. They’ll even write little adventure stories about Scamp. He just inspires people. Has being awarded the world’s ugliest dog changed him? He’s no longer Scamp the Tramp. He’s now Scamp the Champ. Now I have to get him a new dog tag. 55. What can be learned about Scamp the Tramp? A. He loves fast food. B. He looks unattractive. C. He dislikes his new tag. D. He used to live with seniors. 56. Which of the following best fits the blank numbered 76 in the passage? A. Why did you go to Petfinder so often? B. What did you often find on Petfinder? C. Who brought you Scamp the Tramp? D. How did you first meet Scamp the Tramp? 57. By “It’s au naturel!”, Yvonne means that ______. A. Scamp turned gray after being adopted by her B. Scamp is fond of being washed with shampoo C. nothing has been done to change Scamp’s appearance D. it is the pet hairdresser who has given Scamp his new look (C) On January 15th, the Guardian showed off its new, smaller look, shifting from its distinctive “Berliner” format to a tabloid(娱乐小报) shape with a redesigned logo in black type. But the more dramatic makeover is of the 第 10 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) financial books of Guardian Media Group (GMG), publisher of the Sunday Observer and the daily Guardian, which may find its new operation in the black next financial year. A newspaper business that two years ago was threatened with existentially worrying losses appears on the edge of breaking even. The turnaround is partly due to steep cost-cutting, which is a dog-bites-man story in journalism. But the Guardian would manage the achievement while still giving away news free online, and that is a story worth telling. In January 2016 David Pemsel, the new chief executive of GMG, and Katharine Viner, the new editor-in-chief of the Guardian, informed staff that GMG’s endowment fund, meant to ensure the financial security of the paper in the long run, had lost £100m ($140m) in just half a year, taking it to £740m. Mr Pemsel was advised by industry peers to cut costs and put online news behind a paywall. He and Ms Viner cut costs by 20%, or more than £50m. Alan Rusbridger, Ms Viner’s predecessor(前任), had led the newspaper to global relevance with a large online readership. But he spent without thinking of the consequences. In two years GMG has reduced its employees by 400, to about 1,500. Yet unlike a growing number of newspapers, the Guardian has not put up a paywall. Instead it has pursued a membership model, asking online readers to contribute whatever they like. About 600,000 now do, with annual payments or one-off amounts. American readers tend to choose the latter option, Ms Viner says. GMG says the total figure amounts to tens of millions of pounds per year. Ms Viner says revenue from readers (including 200,000 print subscribers) is now greater than revenue from advertisers. The result is steadily declining operating losses: from £69m two years ago to £45m last financial year and, Mr Pemsel says, less than £25m in the year that ends on April 1st. He predicts breaking even next year. Giving up its own printing presses and going tabloid will help, saving several million pounds a year. The Guardian may now physically look more like its peers, but its turnaround story remains distinctive. 58. The phrase “in the black”(Paragraph 1) most probably means ______.

What a chatbot can teach us about the art of conversation After lunchtime on May 2, 1989, a student at Drake University in Iowa started an online text chat with a user at University College Dublin. The UCD user’s handle was “MGonz”. Over the next hour and 20 minutes, the two exchanged insults (谩骂). When the student logged off, he wrote off MGonz as an abusive troll (山怪). But while MGonz was abusive, it was not a troll—it was a simple chatbot programmed by UCD undergrad Mark Humphrys. The next day, Humphrys reviewed the chat logs in astonishment. His MGonz chatbot had passed the Turing test. The Turing test was invented by the mathematician, codebreaker and computing pioneer Alan Turing in 1950. ____62____ Turing’s test is a benchmark for artificial intelligence—but I am less interested in the test itself than in the moral of the story of MGonz’s success. Faced with the difficult task of convincing a human that a chatbot is human, the obvious strategy is to increase the sophistication (复杂) of the chatbot, Humphrys try an alternative: reduce the sophistication of the human. MGonz had passed the Turing test, but is it not also fair to say that the student had failed it? ____63____ These are all things that any chatbot finds hard. But MGonz generates dialogue because insults need neither context nor memory. And it is impossible to read the MGonz transcript without thinking of ugly parallels on social media. We are at our best when our conversation explores complex issues and is sensitive to context. ____64____ The qualities that distinguish us from MGonz are the qualities that get driven out by a fast-moving, soundbite- driven world. Brian Christian’s book The Most Human Human explores the history of chatbots, while reflecting on the nature of good conversation. Christian argues that chatbots tend to pass for human because we humans set the benchmark so low. ____65____ No wonder the chatbots find us easy to imitate. 第 12 页 共 14 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选(在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ,+V: jiajiao6767 ) Conversation is not easy. But the best conversations are delightful. So let’s start by promising to do better than MGonz and see what we can build from there. A. So many of our interactions are predictable or downright rude. B. A good conversation involves give and take, builds over time and exists in a context. C. That is understandable response to the limited range of modern communication. D. But complexity and context do not play well on social media. E. The test is simply for a computer to successfully pretend to be a human in a text-based conversation with another human. F. Turing had something more uplifting in mind than MGonz’s exchange with the student. IV.
