（2020·广东金山中学高三月考） I suspect that we scialize mre during the spring and summer mnths. Under the warm sun, yards blm with cld drinks and cnversatin, barbecues get fired up, and parties quickly spill utside. Shifting these sweet summer parties t nes that arc als waste-free can be bth simple and inexpensive, with just a few small changes t yur habits.
The first step is t keep invitatins virtual. Creating a Facebk event r sending a simple email is perfect fr inviting guests t yur party withut generating waste frm paper invitatins, and if yu're lking fr smething a bit mre frmal, sites such as Greenvelpe and Paperless Pst have given the cheesy e-vite a brilliant makever. Virtual invites als allw yu t track RSVPs, cmmunicate with guests, and prvide clickable inf abut yur event.
T decrate, make use f the candles, flwers and greenery already in yur utdr space rather than stcking upn stre-bught flwers, and cnsider using decratins that can be reused (like a clth happy birthday banner, fr example) rather than ne-time use decratins. Skip the ballns in favur f large tissue paper pm-pms, and ffer up any decratins still in decent cnditin t a free grup after the event rather than just tssing them ut.
The mst bvius way t cut dwn n party waste, f curse, is by getting rid f dispsable plates, cups and cutlery. I shuldn't have t d much cnvincing in this department – des anyne actually enjy using thse paper plates that fld in half when yu pile them high with t much greek salad r drip il thrugh the bttm? Has anyne in the histry f the wrld ever actually successfully cut anything with ne f thse cmpletely useless plastic knives? There really isn't much t be gained frm using dispsables.
With these shifts and a few ther small adjustments here and there – paper straws instead f plastic, a large drink dispenser rather than individual sft drinks r juice bxes – yu'll be set t celebrate all summer lng, withut suffering the accmpanying garbage hangver the next day.

（2020·河南南阳中学高三月考） Machines might ne day replace human labrers in a number f prfessins, but surely they wn’t ever replace human artists. Right?
Think again. Nt even ur artists will be safe frm the inevitable machine takever, if a new develpment in artificial intelligence(AI) by a team f researchers frm Rutgers University and Facebk’s AI lab ffers a clue f what’s t cme. They have designed an AI capable f nt nly prducing art, but actually inventing whle new aesthetic(美学的) styles similar t mvements like impressinism r abstract expressinism. The idea, accrding t researcher Marian Mazzne, was t make art that is “nvel, but nt t nvel”.
The mdel used in this prject invlves a generatr netwrk, which prduces the images, and a discriminatr netwrk, which “judges” whether it’s art. Once the generatr learns hw t prduce wrk that the distributr recgnizes as art, it’s given an additinal instructin: t prduce art that desn’t match any knwn aesthetic styles.
“Yu want t have smething really creative and striking — but at the same time nt t g t far and make smething that isn’t aesthetically pleasing,” explained Ahmed Elgammal.
The art that was generated by the system was then presented t human judges alngside human-prduced art withut shwing which was which. T the researchers’ surprise, the machine-made art scred slightly higher verall than the human-prduced art.
Of curse, machines can’t yet replace the meaning cnveyed in wrks by human artists, but this prject shws that artist skill sets certainly seem reprducible by machines.
What will it take fr machines t prduce cntent with meaning? That might be the last AI frntier. Human artists can at least hang their hats in that field fr nw.
“Imagine having peple ver fr a dinner party and they ask, ‘Wh is that by?’ And yu say, ‘Well, it’s a machine actually.’ That wuld be an interesting cnversatin starter,” said Kevin Walker.
12．What is implied in the secnd paragraph?
A．Artists wn’t be replaced by AI.B．AI can prduce new styles f art.
C．AI is ttally at a lss abut impressinism.D．AI fails t reflect abstract expressinism.
13．What did Marian find in his study?
A．AI can please human judges with its art.B．AI can cmbine cntent with meaning.
C．AI can make art aesthetically unpleasant.D．AI can create high quality arts.
14．What des the underlined phrase “hang their hats” mean?
A．Discver.B．Hld.C．Struggle.D．Appear.
15．What Kevin said in the last paragraph tells us that .
A．she uses machines t ck fr a partyB．she likes t jin in a dinner party
C．she expects the arrival f AID．she cares abut the starter f a chat

In 1961, when President Kennedy declared that America wuld send a man t the mn by the 23 's end, thse wrds, t, had a dreamlike quality.

By the end f the decade, bth visins had yielded cncrete results and 25 American sciety. And yet in many ways the tw dreams ended up 26 each ther. The fight fr racial and ecnmic equality is intensely pragmatic (讲求实用的）and immediate in its impact. The urge t explre space is just the ppsite. It is figuratively and literally therwrldly in its 27 .
When the dust settled, the space dreamers lst ut. There was n grand fllw-up t the Apll missins. The technlgically cmprmised space shuttle prgram has just cme t an end, with n 28 .

That might be the last AI frntier.可知对于机器来说，还需要什么才能生产出有内涵的东西呢？那可能是人工智能最后的未涉及的地方。由此可知，机器人不能生产出有内涵的东西，这是人工智能最后的未涉及的地方，所以人类画家至少现在还能够坚守在那里。故hang ne’s hat意思是“坚守、坚持”。A. Discver.发现；B. Hld.坚持，坚守；C. Struggle.挣扎；D. Appear.出现。故选B。
15．

这是一篇记叙文。作者的家里有一个电话，电话的里面有一个无所不知的Infrmatin Please，她给作者很多帮助，也给了他很多安慰，作者和她之间有了很深的友谊。
【详解】
这是一篇记叙文，首先分析篇章结构：
第一段介绍事件发生的背景①家里有电话②作者手指受伤，没人哭诉。
第二至八段介绍作者与电话里的人第一次交流的全过程：对方教他如何处理受伤的手指。
第九段介绍从此作者几乎什么问题都拨打电话请求Infrmatin Please帮忙。
我们将事件发生的背景、原因、经过、结果用分别用一句话表述出来，就可以写成一篇概要。
【点睛】
本文总结详略得当，要点全。使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：第一句话中使用了情态动词used t be，介绍了时间发生的背景；第二句话使用被动语态与并列句表述了时间发生的原因，其中be available t d使用的比较好；第三句话使用了疑问词加不定式的结构；第四句话使用了过去将来时与whenever引导的时间状语从句，其中ask… fr help使用的恰到好处。Cuntry
