An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs that can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地）. At present we use the term Al for successfully understanding human speech, recognizing(识别）human faces, operating self-driving cars and competing in some game systems like Chess and AlphGo（阿尔法狗）. Some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. Professor Stephen Hawking (霍金), a well-known British scientist, was not for this kind of technology.
Math is the basic language of AI. If we raise the standard in the learning of math, our students will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. We not only want bright students, but also need to attract average students and give them the math skills which are needed to change them into AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.
Scientists hope to create creative and emotional AI which can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this fascinating field.

26. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us the scientists’ about AI.
A. wishes
B. worries
C. feelings
D. discoveries
【答案】23. B 24. D 25. B 26. A
【解析】本文主要介绍了AI（人工智能）的发展，最新的成果（AlphGo）以及成为AI设计师必备的技能和科学家对AI的愿景。
24. 句意：第2段中的下划线词“it”指的是AlphaGo。A.国际象棋B. AlphaGo；C.危险D. AI，原文“Some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly.”（有些人认为AI如果发展得太快，就会对人类构成危险。），这里的“it”指前半句中的“AI”，意思是如果AI发展过快，人们认为可能会是一种危险，故选D。
25. 句意：根据作者和下面的学校报告，哪个学生最有可能成为一名成功的AI设计师？原文“If we raise the standard in the learning of math, our students will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future.”（如果我们提高数学学习的标准，我们的学生将来更有可能成为AI设计师。）说明数学对于成为AI设计师至关重要，结合学校报告，得知Peter数学得分最高，他最有可能成为一名成功的AI设计师。故选B。
26. 句意：第4段主要告诉我们科学家关于人工智能的愿望。A.愿望B.忧虑C.感受D.发现。原文“Scientists hope to create creative and emotional AI which can possibly understand human feelings or create art.”（科学家希望创造出能够理解人类情感或创造艺术的具有创造性和情感化的人工智能。），这一段主要在谈论“科学家希望的东西”，即科学家的愿望，故选A。学科&网
