UNIT 4　Living with technology
Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　（2025·东台六校联考）Just after hatching， many birds learn to identify and follow the first moving object they encounter — a process called imprinting， which can offer protection in the wild as it helps them stay near a parent.It doesn’t take much visual information for a bird to learn to prefer one object and follow it.Researchers wanted to know whether AI models called transformers could do a similar task with limited inputs.
　　Transformers are generic learning systems that can be trained to perform a wide variety of tasks， making them useful in both AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and in computer vision applications， such as autonomous car navigation.
　　“To directly compare learning algorithms to brains， we need to train them on the same experiences，” says Samantha Wood at Indiana University Bloomington.She first raised chicks in a box where the only visual stimulation came from a rotating 3D object presented on a screen.After the first week， she ran each chick through hundreds of test trials that showed that same object on one screen — presented from both familiar and unfamiliar perspectives — and displayed a second unfamiliar object on another screen.The chicks spent more of their time near the first object， suggesting they had imprinted on it.
　　The researcher then created a virtual simulation （仿造物） of the set-up and used a virtual agent to move through it while looking around and recording a first-person view.That provided tens of thousands of simulated images for training and evaluating four transformer models.
　　The AI models had just 300 milliseconds to learn from each simulated image — approximating （接近于） how long biological neurons （神经元） fire after being presented with an image.The researcher found that the AIs could learn to recognise a 3D object as quickly and accurately as the chicks.
　　The study is “a great piece of work” in comparing machine performance with biological brains， says Antone Martinho-Truswell at the University of Sydney.But he also notes，“We might be able to say that the chick ‘saw’ its imprinting object， but that will have a component （成分） of experience to it.Particularly as imprinting is to do with identifying its mother， it would be unsurprising if that visual experience were combined with a suite of other components of experience： fear yielding to comfort， for example， as the chick comes to regard the object as its imprinted ‘mother’.”
1.Why do newborn birds engage in imprinting？（　　）
A.To enhance their navigation skills.
B.To develop their social behaviour.
C.To improve their communication with other birds.
D.To establish a protective connection with a guardian.
2.How did Samantha Wood conduct the initial experiment with chicks？（　　）
A.She raised them in an environment with a rotating visual element.
B.She exposed them to various visual stimulations in the wild.
C.She showed them various moving objects on screens.
D.She observed their behaviour in a natural habitat.
3.What role did the virtual simulation play in the research？（　　）
A.To imitate the natural behaviour of birds.
B.To assess the effectiveness of virtual agents.
C.To examine the AI models’ ability to identify a 3D object.
D.To create a visually diverse environment for the chicks.
4.According to Antone Martinho-Truswell， what poses a challenge in comparing machine performance with biological brains？（　　）
A.Rapid learning pace of AI models.
B.Recreating real-world environments for experiments.
C.The complexity and diversity of biological experiences.
D.Conducting additional experiments with a range of animals.
Ⅱ.读后续写
　　阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
　　Jack was new to Woodberry Forest School this year.He carried a secret burden： a stutter （口吃） that often brought about laughter from his classmates.This made him very upset.Shy and reserved， Jack chose to fade into the background rather than draw attention to himself.He felt like an outsider， never quite fitting in.
　　Jack was eager to exchange ideas with his classmates， but afraid of getting into trouble.Jack’s science teacher， Katherine， a warm and caring woman often wearing a smile， noticed Jack’s stutter and shyness.She observed how Jack struggled to express himself in class and how he would shy away when called upon to speak.
　　Determined to lend a hand， Katherine took Jack under her wing， encouraging him to embrace bravery and believe in his own abilities.Subsequently， Katherine adopted a set of systematic methods to help him.She was glad to find the potential in him， the intelligence and creativity that lay hidden beneath his stutter.Whenever possible， Katherine was always ready to praise his efforts， always declaring， “You are so great！” Whenever Jack stumbled over his words， Katherine always smiled at him encouragingly， providing him with the strength to continue.Day by day， Jack found himself speaking with greater confidence and fluency.
　　One day， Katherine announced that each student should give a presentation of a science project in front of the class.Jack’s heart sank， the familiar fear and anxiety wrapping around him.How could he possibly stand before his classmates to give his ideas clearly， knowing that they would laugh at him？ As the presentation drew near， Jack’s anxiety mounted.Then came the big day.He watched his classmates take turns to walk up to the front.They gave their presentation with confidence and backed to their seats with satisfaction.However， while Jack was waiting for his turn， his heart beat so violently that he felt as if he were sitting on pins and needles.

Ⅱ.
　　It was finally his turn.Jack stood up slowly and edged towards the front， his hands trembling.His classmates looked on， ready to see what was in store for Jack.He stood there tongue-tied with his face turning pale.When he looked around the classroom， Katherine was just smiling at him encouragingly.So Jack took a deep breath and concentrated on his presentation.Words flowed from his lips， despite some pauses and repetitions.He even added gestures to better express himself.It seemed that confidence had found him.
　　When Jack finished his presentation， the room erupted into applause.The applause washed over Jack， and with it came a wave of confidence.His grateful eyes met Katherine’s， her smile now a symbol of his journey to self-assurance.No longer defined by his stutter， Jack felt a sense of belonging.His presentation wasn’t just an assignment； it was a testament to his ability to overcome personal obstacles.As the room quieted， Jack returned to his seat， his heart lighter， knowing that he had made a lasting impression on his classmates and himself.

　　（2024·新课标Ⅱ卷）Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives， we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future， and this is where AI by Design： A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution （变革）.
　　In the wrong hands， such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code （代码） that powers AI but， thankfully， Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable.She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic， making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which， by the close， will make you feel almost as smart as AI.
　　As we soon come to learn from AI by Design， AI is already super-smart and will become more capable， moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence.From there， Campbell says， will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence.This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place.She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence， or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.
　　Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it.She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity.We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out.Such structured thinking， followed by global regulation， will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.
　　AI will affect us all， and if you only read one book on the subject， this is it.
32.What does the phrase “In the wrong hands” in paragraph 2 probably mean？（　　）
A.If read by someone poorly educated. B.If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned.
C.If written by someone less competent. D.If translated by someone unacademic.
33.What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text？（　　）
A.It is packed with complex codes. B.It adopts a down-to-earth writing style.
C.It provides step-by-step instructions. D.It is intended for AI professionals.
34.What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development？（　　）
A.Observe existing regulations on it. B.Reconsider expert opinions about it.
C.Make joint efforts to keep it under control. D.Learn from prior experience to slow it down.
35.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text？（　　）
A.To recommend a book on AI. B.To give a brief account of AI history.
C.To clarify the definition of AI. D.To honor an outstanding AI expert.

　　While the majority of people enjoy the convenience of digital networks，however，senior citizens are experiencing greater and greater difficulties.They strongly demand that they have the same rights as young people to use digital networks. To begin with， we need to strengthen education and training for the elderly to prevent them from becoming victims of online fraud.Therefore， we’d better hire network professionals to patiently guide and help elderly people experience the virtual world.More importantly， we must encourage them to overcome fear of new technologies and stick to the belief of “never too old to learn”.

【素养·培育落实】
一、做真题
32.C　词义猜测题。根据画线短语后的but，thankfully ...into the understandable可知，坎贝尔有二十多年的专业经验，她能将令人头晕的东西转化为容易理解的东西。由此推测，画线短语In the wrong hands指的是如果换一个能力不如坎贝尔的人来写这本书。competent表示“足以胜任的，有能力的，称职的”。
33.B　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知，她从一个商人的实际角度来写作，使得这本书成为非常通俗易懂且内容丰富的指南。由此推断，这本书的写作风格非常务实。
34.C　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句和第四段第一句可知，坎贝尔建议让人工智能的发展处于控制之下，并呼吁技术公司、世界领袖和人工智能专家携手应对。
35.A　写作意图题。根据文章内容尤其是最后一段可知，文章主要介绍了卡特里奥娜·坎贝尔的书AI by Design： A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence。由此推断，作者的写作目的是推荐一本关于人工智能的书。
三、再利用
（三）2.（1）transform　（2）absorbing
3.（1）对付，应对　（2）容易理解的；浅显易懂的
（3）整体的；全面的；总括的
（四）1.how we want our future with AI to pan out
2.followed by global regulation
（五）writes　方式状语　结果状语　定语　guide
她从一个商业人士而非学者的实际角度出发，撰写了一本非常通俗易懂且内容丰富的指南，读完后你会觉得自己几乎和人工智能一样聪明。

　　Recently， our class had a heated discussion about the topic of
environmental pollution.There is no denying that this problem may boil
down to the fact that humans are too greedy.To meet their demands for
more money， trees have been cut down in large quantities.Besides，the
number of wild animals is also on the decrease because of illegal
hunting.It is predicted that if such things continue happening，the
ecological system will be threatened.Apparently， it is urgent that the
government should take some practical measures to prohibit people from
destroying our environment.To conclude，we can never develop our
economy at the expense of the environment.

真题剖析，深度探究
　　（2024·新课标Ⅱ卷）Given the astonishing potential of
AI to transform our lives， we all need to take action to deal with
our AI-powered future， and this is where AI by Design： A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution （变革）.
　　In the wrong hands， such a book could prove as complicated to
process as the computer code （代码） that powers AI but， thankfully，
Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating
the heady into the understandable.She writes from the practical angle of a
business person rather than as an academic， making for a guide which is
highly accessible and informative and which， by the close， will make
you feel almost as smart as AI.
　　As we soon come to learn from AI by Design， AI is already super-
smart and will become more capable， moving from the current generation
of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence.From there，
Campbell says， will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence.This is why
Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several
decades before these developments are expected to take place.She says it
is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence， or risk being
sidelined and perhaps even worse.
　　Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the
technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page
as all the experts currently developing it.She explains we are at a
“tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-
level event for humanity.We need to consider how we want our future with
AI to pan out.Such structured thinking， followed by global regulation，
will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.
　　AI will affect us all， and if you only read one book on the subject，
this is it.

技能·锤炼提升
统筹组合，全面训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　（2025·东台六校联考）Just after hatching， many birds learn to
identify and follow the first moving object they encounter — a process called imprinting， which can offer protection in the wild as it helps them stay near a parent.It doesn’t take much visual information for a bird to learn to prefer one object and follow it.Researchers wanted to know whether AI models called transformers could do a similar task with limited inputs.
　　Transformers are generic learning systems that can be trained to perform a wide variety of tasks， making them useful in both AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and in computer vision applications， such as autonomous car navigation.
　　“To directly compare learning algorithms to brains， we need to
train them on the same experiences，” says Samantha Wood at Indiana
University Bloomington.She first raised chicks in a box where the only
visual stimulation came from a rotating 3D object presented on a
screen.After the first week， she ran each chick through hundreds of test
trials that showed that same object on one screen — presented from both
familiar and unfamiliar perspectives — and displayed a second unfamiliar
object on another screen.The chicks spent more of their time near the first
object， suggesting they had imprinted on it.
　　The researcher then created a virtual simulation （仿造物） of the
set-up and used a virtual agent to move through it while looking around
and recording a first-person view.That provided tens of thousands of
simulated images for training and evaluating four transformer models.
　　The AI models had just 300 milliseconds to learn from each simulated
image — approximating （接近于） how long biological neurons （神经
元） fire after being presented with an image.The researcher found that
the AIs could learn to recognise a 3D object as quickly and accurately as
the chicks.
　　The study is “a great piece of work” in comparing machine
performance with biological brains， says Antone Martinho-Truswell at
the University of Sydney.But he also notes，“We might be able to say
that the chick ‘saw’ its imprinting object， but that will have a
component （成分） of experience to it.Particularly as imprinting is to do
with identifying its mother， it would be unsurprising if that visual
experience were combined with a suite of other components of
experience： fear yielding to comfort， for example， as the chick comes
to regard the object as its imprinted ‘mother’.”

成一篇完整的短文。
　　Jack was new to Woodberry Forest School this year.He carried a
secret burden： a stutter （口吃） that often brought about laughter from
his classmates.This made him very upset.Shy and reserved， Jack chose
to fade into the background rather than draw attention to himself.He felt
like an outsider， never quite fitting in.
　　Jack was eager to exchange ideas with his classmates， but afraid of
getting into trouble.Jack’s science teacher， Katherine， a warm and
caring woman often wearing a smile， noticed Jack’s stutter and
shyness.She observed how Jack struggled to express himself in class and
how he would shy away when called upon to speak.
　　Determined to lend a hand， Katherine took Jack under her wing，
encouraging him to embrace bravery and believe in his own
abilities.Subsequently， Katherine adopted a set of systematic methods to
help him.She was glad to find the potential in him， the intelligence and
creativity that lay hidden beneath his stutter.Whenever possible，
Katherine was always ready to praise his efforts， always declaring，
“You are so great！” Whenever Jack stumbled over his words，
Katherine always smiled at him encouragingly， providing him with the
strength to continue.Day by day， Jack found himself speaking with
greater confidence and fluency.
　　One day， Katherine announced that each student should give a
presentation of a science project in front of the class.Jack’s heart sank，
the familiar fear and anxiety wrapping around him.How could he possibly
stand before his classmates to give his ideas clearly， knowing that they
would laugh at him？ As the presentation drew near， Jack’s anxiety
mounted.Then came the big day.He watched his classmates take turns to
walk up to the front.They gave their presentation with confidence and
backed to their seats with satisfaction.However， while Jack was waiting
for his turn， his heart beat so violently that he felt as if he were sitting on
pins and needles.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；2. 请按如下格式作答。

　　It was finally his turn.Jack stood up slowly and edged towards the
front， his hands trembling.His classmates looked on， ready to see what
was in store for Jack.He stood there tongue-tied with his face turning
