【18题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：人们把数百辆自行车漆成白色，任何人都可以骑。分析句子结构可知，paint在此处作非谓语动词，与逻辑主语bicycles是被动关系，应该用过去分词形式作宾补。故填painted。

In December 2004, as a new professional photographer, I began to work on a project about communities who live on the sea in southeast Asia.
I went out to sea with them regularly. On the morning of 26 December, I was due to set out with a group of six fishermen in a small boat. It was about 8 am, and the sea looked different. The water was totally still. I could tell from the way the fishermen were behaving that something wasn’t right. They seemed to be discussing whether or not we should set off, but the eldest, who operated the boat, gave the go-ahead order.
About 20 minutes later, one of the fishermen pointed to a small white spot far in the distance. It looked like a football. It was getting bigger and bigger very quickly. We had no idea that this was a tsunami wave speeding through the ocean like a tornado (龙卷风).
With a big wave, you would usually try to get as far out as possible into the open sea. The deeper the water, the weaker the wave. But we weren’t far enough out to be safe, nor close enough to the shore to make it back before the wave would hit the land. We were trapped.
When I realized that the fishermen, who were born on the sea, were afraid, I began to feel really scared. At some point the elder took control. No one panicked or screamed. The captain told the six of us where to sit, so we would balance out the boat.
I was sitting on one of the benches in the middle, with my back facing the five-to-seven-meter-high wave. I took hold of my seat firmly, closed my eyes and said goodbye to the world, my family and friends, in my mind.
Suddenly there was a huge noise and a sudden movement. The wave had hit the boat, but in the very second of impact, the incredibly skilled captain got it right. He managed to sail up and on to the wave. Then the boat glided (滑动) from the tip of the wave down behind it, into safe waters. He had saved us all.
Surviving gave me a deep understanding of how short life can be. I’ve been going back to southeast Asia almost every year to thank the people who saved my life.
24. Before setting out to the sea, the author and the fishermen ________.
A. talked about the route B. felt something unusual
C. predicted a coming tsunami D. made insufficient preparations
25. What can we learn about the author from the story?
A. It was his first time to explore the sea.
B. He felt scared because of his inexperience.
C. He thought he would die from the tsunami.
D. He was confident that all on board would survive.
26. Which of the following words can best describe the captain?
A. Kind and determined. B. Smart and generous.
C. Calm and skillful. D. Brave and honest.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者和渔民们一起在船长的指导下脱险于海啸的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They seemed to be discussing whether or not we should set off, but the eldest, who operated the boat, gave the go-ahead order.”（从渔民们的行为方式我可以判断出有什么不对。他们似乎在讨论我们是否应该出发，但操纵船的老大下达了前进的命令）可知，在出海前他们已经察觉有点不对劲。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“ I took hold of my seat firmly, closed my eyes and said goodbye to the world, my family and friends, in my mind.”（我紧紧地抓住我的座位，闭上眼睛，在脑海里对这个世界、我的家人和朋友说再见）可知，当时作者以为他会在此次海啸中死亡。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“At some point the elder took control. No one panicked or screamed.The captain told the six of us where to sit, so we would balance out the boat. ”（在某种程度上，长者控制了局面。没有人恐慌或尖叫。船长告诉我们六个人该坐在哪里，这样我们就可以平衡船了）以及倒数第二段“The wave had hit the boat, but in the very second of impact, the incredibly skilled captain got it right. ”（海浪击中了船，但就在撞击的那一秒钟，这位技术高超的船长就把事情做好了）可知，船长既有经验又很冷静。故选C。

The Mozart in the Machine
Sometime in the coming decades, an external system that collects and analyzes biometric data (生物特征数据) will probably be able to understand what’s going on in my body and in my brain much better than me. What will it do to art? Will art remain humanity’s last line of defense against the rise of the all-knowing algorithms (算法)?
In the modem world art is usually associated with human emotions. We tend to think that artists are controlling internal psychological forces, and that the whole purpose of art is to connect us with our emotions or to inspire in us some new feeling. Consequently, when we come to evaluate art, we tend to judge it by its emotional impact and to believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
In 1952, the composer John Cage composed a musical piece 4’33’’ This piece consists of 4 minutes and 33 seconds during which no instrument plays anything. The piece encourages the audience to observe their inner experiences in order to examine what music is and what we expect of it. The message is that it is our own expectations and emotions that define music.
If art is defined by human emotions, what might happen once external algorithms are able to understand and manipulate human emotions better than Shakespeare, Picasso or Lennon? After all, emotions are not some mysterious forces — they are a biochemical process. Therefore, given enough biometric data and enough computing power, it might be possible to hack (入侵) love, hate, boredom and joy.
Of all forms of art, music is probably the most sensitive to Big Data analysis, because the inputs are the mathematical patterns of soundwaves, and the outputs are the electrochemical signals. Allow a learning machine to go over millions of musical experiences, and it will learn how particular inputs result in particular outputs.
Therefore, in the long run, algorithms may learn how to compose entire tunes, playing on human emotions as if they were a piano keyboard. Using your personal biometric data, the algorithms could even produce personalized melodies, which you alone in the entire world would appreciate.
Will this result in great art? That depends on the definition of art. If beauty is indeed in the ears of their listener, then biometric algorithms stand a chance of producing the best art in history. If art is about something deeper than human emotions, biometric algorithms might not make very good artists. But nor would most humans. In order to enter the art market, algorithms won’t have to begin by straight away beating Beethoven. It is enough if they outperform Justin Bieber.
27. The author mentions the musical piece 4’33” to ________.
A. discuss the effect of silence in a musical piece
B. emphasize its emotional impact on the audience
C. show the significance of emotions in defining music
D. encourage the audience to observe their inner experiences
28. What does the underlined word “manipulate” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Influence. B. Cover. C. Present. D. Appreciate.
29. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Computers will take the place of artists one day.
B. Human emotions are much more than biochemical signals.
C. Art is the final wall of humanity against the all-knowing algorithms.
D. Personalized music may be available for people to enjoy in the future.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of algorithms music?
A. Uncertain. B. Pessimistic. C. Confused. D. Positive.
【答案】27. C 28. A 29. D 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了生物识别算法的崛起对可能给艺术创作带来的影响。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Consequently, when we come to evaluate art, we tend to judge it by its emotional impact and to believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.(因此，当我们评价艺术时，我们倾向于根据它的情感影响来判断它，并相信美在观者的眼中)”和第二段中“This piece consists of 4 minutes and 33 seconds during which no instrument plays anything. The piece encourages the audience to observe their inner experiences in order to examine what music is and what we expect of it. The message is that it is our own expectations and emotions that define music.(这首曲子时长4分33秒，在这段时间内没有任何乐器演奏。这首曲子鼓励观众观察他们的内心体验，从而审视音乐是什么，以及我们对音乐的期待。它要传递的信息是我们的期望和情感定义了音乐)”可推知，作者提及《4’33”》这首曲子的目的是为了用事例来证明情感在定义音乐中的重要作用。故选C项。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后“better than Shakespeare, Picasso or Lennon(比莎士比亚、毕加索和列侬更好)”可知，句中把外部算法与著名艺术家进行比较，结合上文内容和划线词前动词understand可推知，句中比较了外部算法与艺术家对人类情绪的“理解和影响”，结合选项，划线词manipulate在句中与influence同义。故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Therefore, in the long run, algorithms may learn how to compose entire tunes, playing on human emotions as if they were a piano keyboard. Using your personal biometric data, the algorithms could even produce personalized melodies, which you alone in the entire world would appreciate.(因此，从长远来看，算法可能会学会如何创作完整的曲调，就像弹钢琴键盘一样根据人类的情感演奏。利用你的个人生物特征数据，算法甚至可以产生个性化的旋律，只有你一个人会欣赏)”可推知，在未来人们可能会欣赏到个性化的音乐。故选D项。

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。

We often hear about the negative aspects of anxiety, but could there be any advantages or benefits that come from living with anxiety? Anxiety is a feeling that is often characterized by intense fear and worry.
Many individuals with anxiety describe it as a feeling of nervousness and fear that can be distracting and all-consuming. It is typically experienced on many levels, affecting one’s emotions and leading to uncomfortable physical sensations, and negative thoughts. However, have you ever considered some of the possible positive effects that may come with having anxiety? Scientists have learned that some degree of stress or anxiety isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Good stress, something now referred to as eustress, keeps us motivated and excited about life. It appears that some degree of anxiety may have similar “silver linings”.
Anxiety may be just the warning sign you need to bring awareness to your current situation and make some necessary changes in your life. For example, you may find that you have a friendship that is no longer working, or perhaps your job is causing a great deal of stress. Your anxiety can be difficult to manage, but exploring and coping with your anxiety can be a real opportunity for self-growth.
Anxiety may help you feel more motivated and prepared when faced with challenges. Research has shown that students and athletes who experienced some anxiety actually performed better on tests or in competitive sports. For instance, perhaps your anxiety assists you in putting extra effort into work or personal tasks, making a good impression, or moving towards your goals.
People who have dealt with anxiety may be more sympathetic and understanding to the problems that others face. Having gone through personal struggles yourself, you may be more sensitive, loving, and accepting when friends and family members are dealing with personal challenges.
Even though there can be some potential benefits to experiencing anxiety, it is worthwhile to point that it can also become a real hindrance to many aspects of your life. If anxiety is preventing you from living the life you desire, then it may be time to get professional help.

Dear Jim,

Yours,

【答案】Dear Jim,
I am sorry to hear that you have difficulty in learning Chinese. I hope that the unexpected failure will not let you down, for I have still been amazed by the excellent Chinese you spoke when we first met.
As we all know, language learning is never an easy task, but needs great efforts and patience. Personally, I think you’d better pay close attention to the formal use of Chinese words and expressions, which really counts. Meanwhile, you may as well read as many Chinese materials as you can. More importantly, you should learn from the mistakes that you have made. Anyway, you’ve already made great progress in your learning of Chinese.
I would be happy if my suggestions can be of use to you.
Yours,
Li Hua
