Frm AI-made jkes t Harry Ptter fashin vides,AI can be used t make funny stuff. But can it be as funny as a human?And if it can,des it present a danger t cmedy writers in the future? That's smething perfrmers have been lking at in this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe,running frm Aug.4 t Aug.28.
Anyne can put n a shw at the Fringe,and this year even rbts were getting in n the act.One f Fringe's big shws used a small rbt t cme up with jkes frm audiences' suggestins,which were then perfrmed by humans.The results culd be very funny,but smetimes they weren't funny at all.That was part f the pint,explained Pitr Mirwski,the shw's c-maker.“We d nt use humans t‘shw ff”AI;instead,we use AI‘t shw' its limitatins, t shwcase human creativity n the stage,"said Mirwski,accrding t The Guardian.
Cmedian Pierre Nvellie said that it will take a lng time fr AI t get gd at creating cmedy.“Cmedy is the last thing that AI is ging t get near,"Pierre tld Sky News." Even nrmal human cmedians struggle t‘tune' their jkes‘fr' the right crwd at the right time,every time.But that's what's interesting abut stand-up(独角喜剧)and fun.”
But Peter Bazely,a perfrmer at the Fringe,said he's using AI t make jkes fr him because he's ut f ideas.One f Bazely's shws had him playing a supprting rle t“an entirely cmputer-generated cmedian”called AI Jesus.
The Fringe review website,Chrtle,talked abut tday's AI cncerns:“In a wrld where artists are wrried that AI culd end up ding their jbs fr them,Bazely is said t be praying this ne will d exactly that.”
The reasns fr cmpanies wanting t use AI are certainly understandable,but the dangers they present t many peple's jbs are becming mre and mre real,and that's nt very funny.In May,leaders in the AI industry signed a dcument warning that AI culd present an extinctin-level danger and“shuld be a glbal pririty alngside pandemics and nuclear war”.
8.What des the underlined“That”in paragraph 2 refer t?
A.Perfrming jkes made by rbts.
B.Rbts' jkes are very ppular.
C.Rbts' jkes smetimes are nt fun.
D.Using humans t shw ff AI.
9.What d Nvellie's wrds imply?
A.AI limits the creativity f humans.
B.It is nt easy fr AI t replace cmedians.
C.AI respnds well t audiences' suggestins.
D.The audience f cmedy is hard t appeal t.
10.Why des Peter Bazely welcme AI?
A.He has gt difficulty in making cmedies.
B.He desn't want t play supprting rles any mre.
C.He believes AI Jesus wn't replace human cmedians.
D.He thinks jkes made by AI can make his shws ppular.
11.What's the authr's purpse f writing this article?
A.T prmte the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
B.T display the jys and srrws f cmedians.
C.T warn the public f the existing danger f AI.
D.T raise public cncern fr the pssible threat f AI.

After tracking flwers n a prairie(草原)in Minnesta fr 21 years,scientists reprted that the plants reprduce mre successfully in the year fllwing a carefully cntrlled burn.Understanding the relatinship between prairie plants and fire is imprtant fr preserving this ecsystem which is becming rapidly smaller,says Stuart Wagenius,a cnservatin scientist.
Fire prvides an additinal advantage fr the narrw-leaved purple cne-flwer(紫锥花),as Wagenius and his clleagues say.T really blm(开花),they need a little help:Enter the fire.Between 1996 and 2016,Wagenius says his team tracked nearly 8,000 purple cne-flwers n the Staffansn Prairie Preserve.In 9 f thse years,they cnducted cntrlled burns ver 400 times.“In the summer after a burn,many mre plants flwer,”Wagenius says."It is just a huge flwering festival.”
Purple cne-flwers and many ther prairie plants were previusly knwn t blm energetically after fires.Hwever,the researchers said that fire als stimulated purple cne-flwers t blm at the same time in the summer after a burn.This meant that instead f being uncnnected,the purple cne-flwers were surrunded by ptential mates and went n t prduce nearly duble the number f seeds cmpared with ther years.Wagenius says it's nt yet clear exactly hw fires signal the flwers t get busy.
The new findings may help the peple wh manage prairies t better understand the different ways that fire affects the plants grwing in these habitats,said Kathryn Yurknis,a grassland eclgist wh was nt invlved in the research.Hwever,Yurknis added,it remains t be shwn hw the fires influence the purple cne-flwer ppulatin."This paper implies that making mre seeds wuld mean mre seeds wuld land n the sil and enter the ppulatin f plants—but they dn't actually examine that step,"she said."I'd be curius t see whether this actually translates t mre purple cne-flwers.”
12.What is the basis fr the research?
A.Prairies are easy t disappear.
B.Plants n a prairie are diverse.
C.Fire relates psitively t prairie plants.
D.Withut fire,flwers wn't blm.
13.What des the authr intend t cnvey with figures cited in paragraph tw?
A.Wagenius's team was cmmitted indeed.
B.Samples f flwers were rich in number.
C.Time spent n the research was lng.
D.The findings were relatively cnvincing.
14.What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A.The result f plants being uncnnected.
B.The influence f fires n prairie plants.
C.The prcess f prairie plants' grwing after fires.
D.The reasn fr plants' blming at the same time.
15.What is Kathryn Yurknis's attitude t the research finding?
A.Uninterested.
B.Prejudiced.
C.Objective.
D.Oppsed

Every June,we renew an annual traditin at ur huse in a lvely neighburhd. Our children are given bwls and asked t cllect pieces f nature that remind them f the summer. They leave thse bwls n the frnt drstep and we g fr a walk.When we return,we find fairies (仙子)have transfrmed the bwls' cntents int ice cream sundaes(圣代冰淇淋).
I'm nt certain hw this traditin evlved.I think I was making up smething abut fairies years ag,and it all just srt f happened.But ever since,it has been ne f ur favurite rutine activities,fascinated with its magic.
“When are the fairies cming?”six-year-ld Anna had been asking all last June,eager with expectatin.Meanwhile,Jhn,nine,was getting wise t fairies and Father Christmas and such silly things.S he was pretty sure abut hw all the“magic”came abut as the evening apprached.“Yu knw,I had everything wrked ut!”He said he wuld understand if,during ur walk,Mum r Dad shuld frget smething and return hme r during the walk a parent might have t fetch smething in the car.Many times,we were even thinking f telling him the truth but we didn't.Anna shuld enjy the magic.
The evening arrived as expected.The children cllected leaves and blades f grass, pebbles, twigs(树枝)and dead insects.We put their bwls n the frnt drstep and went ff n ur walk as usual.But after a while,I pretended t cmplain that I had frgtten my keys and needed t g back.
Jhn smiled with a knwing expressin.“Oh wait,"I added."I've fund them!I dn't have t g back.”As we cntinued n ur way,Jhn was beginning t get a bit cnfused.
Near ur huse,after exchanging a glance with my husband,I anxiusly warned that the fairies might nt have arrived yet—we might need t walk fr a bit lnger.Hearing what I said, Jhn seemed relieved.“Yes,”he said,"they prbably hadn't cme!"Yet when we reached the frnt dr,the bwls were in the same place we had left them—filled exactly with ice cream sundaes.

广东省2023—2024学年高三11月统一调研测试
英语参考答案及评分细则
A
本文是一篇广告应用文。文章主要介绍2023“大美中国”图片和短视频征集活动的相关信息。
1.B 推理判断题。根据WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR部分可知，展示在中国旅游的经历的相关作品可以参选。
2.A细节理解题。根据WHAT YOU CAN GET部分的内容以及题干中的“a shrt vide”和“as an individual”可以综合得出答案为A。
3.C 细节理解题。根据FORMAT OF WORKS部分可知，无论提交的作品是图片还是短视频，都要有简明的介绍。所以答案为C。
B
本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了“天鹅爸爸”高如意四十多年来持续不懈拯救三门峡地区的天鹅的故事，以及在他和政府部门的持续努力下天鹅在黄河三门峡地区被有效保护的事实。
4.D推理判断题。从全文高如意对天鹅的关心，特别是第二段所述可知，高如意不忍心看到天鹅被捕杀，因此开始多年的拯救和保护，说明他是一位心地善良的人。
5.B细节理解题。第三段提到高如意在保护天鹅的过程中遭遇过一些挑战，下文讲述到他面临这些挑战(例如非法捕杀天鹅的事件)所做过的事情，其中包括对村民们进行宣传教育以提高他们保护天鹅及其他野生生物的意识。故选B。
6.D词义猜测题。画线词下文提到高如意和其他人共同继续展开行动、向村民宣传保护野生生物的知识，可以得知他保护天鹅的激情从未减弱过。
7.A标题归纳题。本文主要讲述“天鹅爸爸”高如意四十多年来持续不懈拯救三门峡地区的天鹅的故事，以及在他和政府部门的持续努力下天鹅在黄河三门峡地区被有效保护的事实，因此A最适合作为文章标题。
C
本文是一篇议论文。文章以爱丁堡艺穗节引入人工智能为切入点，通过演员和主办者对AI的不同反应，引出大众以及专家对AI潜在威胁的担忧，从而引发公众对Al应用的关切。
8.C代词指代题。“That was part f the pint”这句话的意思是“那正是(我们引入AI的)部分目的”。在行文中，that一般代指其上文所说的事物或事情，本文中它的上文是“but smetimes they weren't funny at all”。故选C。
9.B推理判断题。根据第三段Nvellie所说“让AI精通喜剧创作还有很长的路要走，喜剧是AI最难以接近的领域……”可推知他认为AI取代喜剧演员不是一件容易的事。
10.A细节理解题。文章第四段提到Peter Bazely使用AI是因为他自己目前创作不出什么笑话或喜剧。故选A。
11.D 推理判断题。本文从爱丁堡艺穗节引入AI这件事切入，通过展示艺穗节参与者对AI进入喜剧行业的不同反应引出最后一段，呼吁人们关注AI介入相关行业这件事及其潜在威胁。故选择D项。C项把潜在威胁说成已存在的危险，不符合题意。
D
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了火对草原上的紫锥花繁衍再生的影响。
12.C 推理判断题。根据第二段“Fire prvides an additinal advantage fr the narrw-leaved purple cne-flwer(紫锥花)”、第三段"Purple cne-flwers and many ther prairie plants were previusly knwn t blm energetically after fires.”可知，这项新的研究是基于“火对紫锥花等草原植物有益”这一事实展开的。
13.D 推理判断题。根据第二段中的相关数据可知，Wagenius与其研究团队追踪观察紫锥花的时间长达20年，观察了将近8000株紫锥花，他们还开展了400多次受控的燃烧实验以观察被火烧过后紫锥花的开花情况。因此推断作者想通过这些数据来说明这项研究得出的结论是相对客观可靠的。故选D。
14.B段落大意题。第三段首句提到之前的研究表明火能让草原植物开更多花，接着阐述了火的另外一个作用，即能让紫锥花同时开花并且产出的种子数量比往年多一倍；最后一句提到现在还不明确为什么火会给紫锥花带来这样的改变。所以本段主要介绍了火对草原上植物的影响。故选B。
15.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可推知，Kathryn Yurknis既承认了这一发现带来的好处，也指出了其不足，因此她的态度是客观的。
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明活在当下的意义和可行的方法。
16.G本段开头说明没有活在当下(沉溺过去或焦虑未来)给人们带来的危害，然后提到你(读者)也可能是其中一员，说明这种现象对你(读者)的危害。G项“学会活在当下可以极大地提升你的生活幸福感”可以承接上文。
17.A本段小标题为“关注你的周围”,因此A项与上文衔接自然，表示“现在闭上眼睛，深吸一口气，然后睁开眼睛，认真观察你所处的环境”。A项中的“where yu are”与小标题中的“Yur Surrundings”相呼应。
18.F本段的小标题为“感恩你所拥有的”。F项为本段中心句，是对小标题的更详细的解释；且F项中“appreciate”与小标题中的“Be Grateful fr”、空后的“yu are grateful fr”相呼应。
19.C本段小标题为“接受现实”。空前介绍“接受现实”的方法：通过放弃幻想来接受现实。本空接着解释要放弃幻想的原因：人不可能控制发生在自身周围的一切。故选C项。
20.E本段小标题为“寻找积极正面的社交支持”。空前提到“与积极正面的人交往会增加你自己的正能量和幸福感”,所以此处选E“相应地，这种正能量和幸福感会使你更关注身边正在发生的事情”承接上文。
本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自身经历说明了拖延会带来的后果，警示人们无论事情是大是小，尽量及早解决。
21.C根据语境及下文中的“turn ff that valve”可知，作者应该做的是关掉阀门。
22.D 根据后文中的“The city already warned unpleasant results culd fllw"“My wife,Anita,als talked abut it several times.”可知，作者并非没有被提醒过要关掉阀门。
23.A根据上下文语境可知，此处表示市政已经警示过居民：如果未能及时关闭阀门，会产生不好的结果。
24.B 根据下文的对话内容可知，此处表示因作者的妻子提醒他关闭阀门而时常会有类似这样的对话。
25.C 根据上下文语境和句意可知，当被妻子问到有没有关闭阀门时，作者总会回答道：“是的，我需要去完成这件事。”
26.D根据上文对话可知，此处表示作者的妻子希望他能在天气变得很冷之前把自来水的阀门关掉。
27.A 根据语境可知，作者真诚地向妻子保证：“我明天就会把它关掉。”
28.B根据句意可知，因为天气一直很暖和，并且暖秋后面通常会是暖冬，所以作者心里一直认为不需要急着关掉阀门。
29.C根据语境可知，作者一直告诉自己，“天气变冷了，我就会去关掉它”。作者内心认为一直不关阀门不会有什么问题，而且这件事可以很快地完成。毕竟，关闭阀门只需要花费大约42秒的时间。
30.B 根据上文内容可知，关闭阀门是一件非常简单的事情。
31.A根据下文内容可知，作者一家因为没能及时关闭阀门付出了昂贵的代价(阀门破裂、地下室被淹等)。Pay fr表示“(为某种过失)付出代价”。
32.C 根据语境及生活常识可知，自来水阀门破裂，水在流向地下室的过程中也许还会渗入房子的墙壁，对其造成损伤。
33.D根据语境可知，维修供水管道和房子的损伤不仅花了作者一家许多钱，还给他们的生活造成很多不便。
34.A最后一段是作者通过这件事情得到的感悟：拖延并不只是意味着推迟做某件事或某个决定，它还会带来相应的后果。故选A。
35.D根据全文内容可知，作者一直拖延、不去关闭阀门，这造成了他们需要支付维修房屋的费用并且生活不便的后果。因此此处表示，不作为实际上也是一种(会带来后果的)行为。
本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了中国神州十七号载人飞船升空的相关信息，同时也介绍了此次的飞行乘组及主要任务。
36.as考查介词。此处指中国作为一个后起之秀跻身太空强国。故填介词as。
37.has becme考查时态。根据句中的时间状语“S far”可知设空处应用现在完成时，表示中国已经跻身太空强国的事实。
38.fully考查副词。此处修饰peratinal,故用副词形式。
39.heading考查非谓语动词。此处表示伴随状况，且提示词head与逻辑主语three Chinese astrnauts为主动关系，故用现在分词。
40.yungest考查形容词最高级。此处表示“送往太空的最年轻的一组航天员”,故用最高级。
41.an考查冠词。此处表达“神州十七号飞行乘组的航天员的平均年龄是38岁”,average为元音音素开头。故用an。
