(2024·广东省南粤名校联考)
Recent research reveals that the adptin f generative artificial intelligence(AI) by cmpanies in the US has a disprprtinate impact n wmen.Accrding t a recent analysis, apprximately 79% f the jbs lst t AI were held by wmen.This difference can be due t several factrs.
Wmen are mre likely t wrk in industries that are highly be influenced by autmatin, such as retail, hspitality, and administrative supprt.These sectrs ften invlve repetitive tasks that can be easily autmated by AI technlgies.Cnsequently, wmen emplyed in these industries face a higher risk f jb displacement.
Gender biases in AI algrithms(运算法则) can wrsen the situatin fr wmen.AI systems are trained n histrical data, which may reflect existing gender biases in hiring and prmtin practices.This can result in biased decisin-making during recruitment and perfrmance evaluatins, putting wmen at a disadvantage in the wrkplace.
The lack f diversity in the develpment f AI technlgies cntributes t the gender difference.The underrepresentatin (代表名额不足) f wmen in the field f AI means that their perspectives and experiences are nt adequately cnsidered during the design and develpment prcess.As a result, AI systems may nt fully understand r cater t the needs f wmen, cntinuusly leading t gender inequalities.
T address these challenges, it is crucial t priritize diversity and inclusin in the develpment and deplyment f AI technlgies.This invlves increasing the representatin f wmen in AI-related fields and ensuring diverse perspectives are cnsidered during the design and testing phases.Additinally, cmpanies shuld actively wrk twards eliminating gender biases in AI algrithms and regularly assess their impact n different demgraphic grups.
In cnclusin, althugh men currently dminate the labr market, wmen bear a disprprtinate burden due t the adptin f generative AI.The cmbinatin f industry cmpsitin, gender biases in algrithms, and lack f diversity in AI develpment cntribute t this disparity.T relieve these effects, it is essential t priritize diversity and inclusin in AI develpment and address gender biases in algrithms.Only thrugh these effrts can we ensure that the benefits f AI are distributed equitably amng all individuals, regardless f gender.
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了生成式人工智能对从业的女性造成了更大的负面影响,行业构成、算法中的性别偏见以及人工智能开发缺乏多样性等因素共同导致了这一问题。
4.Why are wmen in the US wrkfrce mre influenced by the adptin f generative AI than men? D

C.Wmen are generally less skilled in technlgy and AI-related fields.
D.Wmen are mre likely t wrk in industries that are highly autmatable.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“Wmen are mre likely t wrk in industries that are highly be influenced by autmatin, such as retail, hspitality, and administrative supprt.(女性更有可能在受自动化影响较大的行业工作,如零售、酒店和行政支持。)”和“Cnsequently, wmen emplyed in these industries face a higher risk f jb displacement.(因此,在这些行业就业的女性面临更高的失业风险。)”可知,美国劳动力中的女性比男性更容易受到采用生成式人工智能的影响是因为女性更有可能在高度自动化的行业工作。故选D。
5.Which f the fllwing strategies can reduce the ptential negative impact n wmen? B
A.Increasing gender prprtin in AI develpment teams.
B.Prviding targeted training and prgrams fr wmen and giving them mre chances in AI-related fields.

6.Why is it imprtant t priritize diversity and inclusin in AI develpment? C
A.It ensures equal pprtunities fr wmen in the wrkfrce.
B.It prmtes innvatin and creativity in AI slutins.
C.It reduces the risk f biased algrithms that perpetuate gender inequalities.
D.It imprves the verall perfrmance and effectiveness f AI systems.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中“As a result, AI systems may nt fully understand r cater t the needs f wmen, cntinuusly leading t gender inequalities.(因此,人工智能系统可能无法完全理解或满足女性的需求,从而不断导致性别不平等。)”和最后一段中“T relieve these effects, it is essential t priritize diversity and inclusin in AI develpment and address gender biases in algrithms.Only thrugh these effrts can we ensure that the benefits f AI are distributed equitably amng all individuals, regardless f gender.(为了减轻这些影响,必须在人工智能开发中优先考虑多样性和包容性,并解决算法中的性别偏见。)”可推知,在人工智能开发中优先考虑多样性和包容性很重要,因为这样可以降低使性别不平等永久化的有偏见算法的风险。故选C。
7.What is the main idea f the article? C
A.The impact f AI n jb lsses in the US.
B.The rle f wmen in AI-related fields.
C.Gender biases in AI algrithms and their effects n wmen.
D.Slutins t address challenges faced by wmen due t generative AI.
解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章介绍了生成式人工智能对从业的女性造成了更大的负面影响,并从行业构成、算法中的性别偏见以及人工智能开发缺乏多样性三个方面分析了这一问题产生的原因,着重分析了算法方面的因素和解决方法。因此,C项“人工智能算法中的性别偏见及其对女性的影响”符合文章大意。故选C。

梅拉蒂、伊莎贝尔、两姐妹的父母
主要事件
本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了两个女孩非常喜欢在自己家附近的海边游泳,后来发现海里和海滩上的塑料垃圾太多了,就不再想去游泳了。后来课上老师讲到英雄人物,他们可以对世界起到正面影响,并激励身边的人,于是梅拉蒂想到她们也可以去做一些事情。
情节分析
由第一段提示语“梅拉蒂和伊莎贝尔决定立即产生积极的影响。”可知,第一段可描写两个女孩采取行动去改善海滨的状况,并发动身边的年轻人参与并创建组织,及她们取得的成果。由第二段提示语“一个月后,梅拉蒂接到了当地一家报社的电话。”可知,第二段可描写她们接受报社采访,组织规模不断扩大,在当地造成影响。
