UPS driver Ryan Arens was making a delivery near a pnd in Bzeman, Mntana, when he heard a strange sund. “Like a cry fr help,” he tld the dd. cm, a website fr animal lvers.
It was December 2018, and abut 15 feet frm the frzen banks was the surce f that cry — a half-submerged brwn-and-white wirehaired hund (猎犬), struggling t cling t a thin layer f ice. Hw she gt there n ne knws, but an elderly man was already n the scene, determined t save her. He’d entered the pnd in a rwbat and was hacking away at the ice with a rck t create a path t the dg.
It was slw ging, and Arens, 44, thught he std a better chance. “Animals are my weakness,” he tld the Great Falls Tribune, explaining why he jumped int the water, even thugh the temperature was -30°C, and cmmandeered the rwbat.
His heart thumping, Arens slid clser t the dg and used the ther man’s rck t smash away at the ice. He gave ne strng heave t many and slipped ff the bat, crashing int 16 feet f freezing water. He resurfaced in time t see the dg ging under. Using nervus energy t keep warm, he swam abut five feet tward her, caught hld f her cllar, and pulled her t the ice.

After astnishing breakthrughs in artificial intelligence, many peple wrry that they will be replaced by AI. Glbal Ggle searches fr “is my jb safe?” have dubled in recent mnths, as peple fear that they will be replaced with large language mdels (LLMs). In a recent paper Tyna Elundu f OpenAI and clleagues say that “arund 80% f the US wrkfrce culd have at least 10% f their wrk tasks affected by the intrductin f LLMs”.
Ecnmists, hwever, tend t enjy making predictins abut autmatin mre than they enjy testing them. In the early 2010s many f them ludly predicted that rbts wuld kill jbs by the millins, nly t fall silent when emplyment rates acrss the rich wrld rse t all-time highs.
Few f the dm-mngers (末日论者) have a gd explanatin fr why cuntries with the highest rates f tech usage arund the glbe, such as Japan, Singapre and the Republic f Krea, cnsistently have amng the lwest rates f unemplyment.
Here we intrduce ur first attempt at tracking AI’s impact n jbs. Using American data n emplyment by ccupatin, we single ut white-cllar wrkers.
White-cllar rles are thught t be especially sensitive t generative AI, which is becming ever better at lgical reasning and creativity. Hwever, there is as yet little evidence f an AI hit t emplyment. In the spring f 2020 white-cllar jbs rse, as many peple in service ccupatins lst their jb at the start f the Cvid-19 pandemic. And in the past year the white-cllar share f emplyment in prfessins thught t be at risk frm generative AI has risen by 0.5%.
Of curse, it’s still early days fr generative AI. Few firms yet use generative Al tls at large scale, s the impact n jbs culd merely be delayed.
Anther pssibility, hwever, is that these new technlgies will end up destrying nly a small number f rles. While Al may be efficient at sme tasks, it may be less gd at thers, such as management and wrking ut what thers need.
AI culd even have a psitive effect n jbs. If wrkers using it becme mre efficient, prfits at their cmpany culd rise which wuld then allw bsses t ramp up hiring.
A recent survey by Experis, an IT-recruitment firm, pints t this pssibility. Mre than half f Britain’s emplyers expect AI technlgies t have a psitive impact n the number f their staff ver the next tw years, it finds.
T see hw it all shakes ut, we will publish updates t this analysis every few mnths. But fr nw, a jb apcalypse seems a lng way ff.
46. In terms f artificial intelligence, peple wrry abut ______.
A. hw t avid being replaced by machines

【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Ecnmists, hwever, tend t enjy making predictins abut autmatin mre than they enjy testing them. In the early 2010s many f them ludly predicted that rbts wuld kill jbs by the millins, nly t fall silent when emplyment rates acrss the rich wrld rse t all-time highs.(然而，经济学家更喜欢预测自动化，而不是测试自动化。在2010年代初，他们中的许多人大声预测机器人将夺走数百万人的工作，但当发达国家的就业率升至历史最高水平时，他们却沉默了)”可知，经济学家喜欢预测自动化但不喜欢测试，之前预测机器人会消灭数百万工作机会，但实际上就业率却上升了，这表明机器对工作岗位的影响很难明确。故选D项。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“White-cllar rles are thught t be especially sensitive t generative AI, which is becming ever better at lgical reasning and creativity. Hwever, there is as yet little evidence f an AI hit t emplyment. In the spring f 2020 white-cllar jbs rse, as many peple in service ccupatins lst their jb at the start f the Cvid-19 pandemic.

【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“AI culd even have a psitive effect n jbs. If wrkers using it becme mre efficient, prfits at their cmpany culd rise which wuld then allw bsses t ram p up hiring.(人工智能甚至可能对就业产生积极影响。如果使用它的员工变得更有效率，公司的利润就会上升，这将使老板们能够加快招聘)”以及倒数第二段“A recent survey by Experis, an IT-recruitment firm, pints t this pssibility. Mre than half f Britain’s emplyers expect AI technlgies t have a psitive impact n the number f their staff ver the next tw years, it finds.(Experis是一家 IT 招聘公司，其最近的一项重新认证调查显示，有这种可能性。调查显示，超过半数的英国雇主预计人工智能技术在未来两年内会对员工数量产生积极影响)”可知，如果工人使用AI后效率提高，公司利润可能上升，这将使老板能够增加招聘，因此人工智能可能会促使雇主雇佣更多的人。故选C项。

The effects f “weird weather” were already being felt in the 1960s, but scientists linking fssil fuels with climate change were dismissed as prphets f dm (末日预言家).
In August 1974, the ClA prduced a study n “climatlgical research as it is related t intelligence (情报) prblems”. The diagnsis was dramatic. It warned f the emergence f a new era f weird weather, leading t plitical unrest and mass migratin (which, in turn, wuld cause mre unrest).
The new era the agency imagined wasn’t necessarily ne f htter temperatures; the CIA had heard frm scientists warning f glbal cling as well as warming. But the directin in which the temperature was changing wasn’t their immediate cncern; it was the plitical impact. They knew that the s-called “little ice age”, a series f cld snaps between, rughly, 1350 and 1850, had brught nt nly drught and famine, but als war.
“The climate change began in 1960,” the reprt’s first page infrms us, “but n ne, including the climatlgists, recgnised it.” Crp failures in the Sviet Unin and India in the early 1960s had been attributed t standard unlucky weather. The US shipped grain t India and the Sviets killed ff livestck t eat. But, the reprt argued, the wrld ignred this warning, as the glbal ppulatin cntinued t grw and states made massive investments in energy, technlgy and medicine.
Meanwhile, the weird weather rlled n, shifting t a cllectin f west African cuntries just belw the Sahara. Peple in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Fas, Niger and Chad “became the first victims f the climate change”, the reprt argued, but their suffering was masked by ther struggles r the richer parts f the wrld simply weren’t paying attentin.
As the effects f climate change started t spread t ther parts f the wrld, the early 1970s saw reprt s f drughts, crp failures and flds frm Myanmar, Pakistan, the Demcratic Peple’s Republic f Krea, Csta Rica, Hnduras, Japan, Manila, Ecuadr, USSR, China, India and the US.
51. The climatlgical research by CIA shwed that ______.
A. glbal cling had mre evidence than warming
B. plitical impact was mre unpredictable than climate
C. climate change culd cause cnflicts between cuntries
D. histrical ice age had an impact n future weather
52. Why did the wrld ignre climate change warnings in the 1960s?
A. Because climatlgists lacked equipment fr bservatin.
B. Because crp failures attracted the wrld’s attentin.
C. Because climate change was a natinal secret e f Sviet Unin.
D. Because the wrld was busy develping ecnmy and technlgy.
53. Hw did the wrld respnd t the suffering f the first victims f climate change?
A. The US prvided them with grain t reduce hunger.
B. The rich cuntries failed t ntice their struggle.
C. The wrld praised their curage in the face f weird weather.
D. The African peple migrated t the area near Sahara.
54. Thrughut 1960s and the 1970s, climate warnings were ______.
A. unclear and cnfusingB. widespread and neglected
C. rare and disastrusD. frequent and insignificant
55. What is the purpse f the passage?
A. T infrm peple f the ignred signs f climate changes.
B. T call n peple t prtect the envirnment.
C. T explain why climate changes have effects n plitics.

推理判断题。根据第二段“In August 1974, the ClA prduced a study n “climatlgical research as it is related t intelligence (情报) prblems”. The diagnsis was dramatic. It warned f the emergence f a new era f weird weather, leading t plitical unrest and mass migratin (which, in turn, wuld cause mre unrest).(1974年8月，中情局发表了一份关于‘与情报问题有关的气候学研究’的报告。诊断结果令人震惊。它警告说，一个怪异天气的新时代即将来临，这将导致政治动荡和大规模移民（反过来，这将导致更多的动荡）)”以及第三段中“But the directin in which the temperature was changing wasn’t their immediate cncern; it was the plitical impact. They knew that the s-called “little ice age”, a series f cld snaps between, rughly, 1350 and 1850, had brught nt nly drught and famine, but als war.(但是温度变化的方向并不是他们最关心的;这是政治影响。他们知道所谓的‘小冰河期’，即大约在1350年到1850年之间的一系列寒流，不仅带来了干旱和饥荒，还带来了战争。)”可知，CIA并没有特别强调全球变冷或变暖的证据，而是关注气候变化的政治影响；他们的研究表明气候变化造成的极端天气不仅带来干旱饥荒，还会导致政治动荡和大规模移民，这反过来将导致更多的动荡甚至战争；由此推知，气候变化可能导致政治动荡甚至国家间的冲突。故选C项。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But, the reprt argued, the wrld ignred this warning, as the glbal ppulatin cntinued t grw and states made massive investments in energy, technlgy and medicine.(但报告认为，随着全球人口的持续增长和国家在能源、技术和医学上进行大规模投资，世界忽视了这一警告。)”可知，世界在1960年代忽视气候变化警告是因为忙于经济发展和技术进步。故选D项。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Meanwhile, the weird weather rlled n, shifting t a cllectin f west African cuntries just belw the Sahara. Peple in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Fas, Niger and Chad “became the first victims f the climate change”, the reprt argued, but their suffering was masked by ther struggles r the richer parts f the wrld simply weren’t paying attentin.(与此同时，这种奇怪的天气还在继续，转移到了撒哈拉以南的一些西非国家。报告称，毛里塔尼亚、塞内加尔、马里、布基纳法索、尼日尔和乍得的人民‘为气候变化的首批受害者’，但他们的苦难被其他斗争掩盖了，或者世界上较富裕的地区根本没有注意到这一点。)”可知，撒哈拉以南的一些西非国家成为气候变化的首批受害者，然而他们的苦难被其他斗争所掩盖或者被富裕地区所忽视；由此可知，富裕国家并没有注意到气候变化的第一批受害者在苦难中的挣扎。故选B项。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中““The climate change began in 1960,” the reprt’s first page infrms us, “but n ne, including the climatlgists, recgnised it.” Crp failures in the Sviet Unin and India in the early 1960s had been attributed t standard unlucky weather.

UPS driver Ryan Arens was making a delivery near a pnd in Bzeman, Mntana, when he heard a strange sund. “Like a cry fr help,” he tld the dd. cm, a website fr animal lvers.
It was December 2018, and abut 15 feet frm the frzen banks was the surce f that cry — a half-submerged brwn-and-white wirehaired hund (猎犬), struggling t cling t a thin layer f ice. Hw she gt there n ne knws, but an elderly man was already n the scene, determined t save her. He’d entered the pnd in a rwbat and was hacking away at the ice with a rck t create a path t the dg.
It was slw ging, and Arens, 44, thught he std a better chance. “Animals are my weakness,” he tld the Great Falls Tribune, explaining why he jumped int the water, even thugh the temperature was -30°C, and cmmandeered the rwbat.
His heart thumping, Arens slid clser t the dg and used the ther man’s rck t smash away at the ice. He gave ne strng heave t many and slipped ff the bat, crashing int 16 feet f freezing water. He resurfaced in time t see the dg ging under. Using nervus energy t keep warm, he swam abut five feet tward her, caught hld f her cllar, and pulled her t the ice. He then carried the dg int the bat and slid it back t the shre, where anxius bystanders carried the dg t the hme f the rwbat wner, wh is a retired veterinarian.

After astnishing breakthrughs in artificial intelligence, many peple wrry that they will be replaced by AI. Glbal Ggle searches fr “is my jb safe?” have dubled in recent mnths, as peple fear that they will be replaced with large language mdels (LLMs). In a recent paper Tyna Elundu f OpenAI and clleagues say that “arund 80% f the US wrkfrce culd have at least 10% f their wrk tasks affected by the intrductin f LLMs”.
Ecnmists, hwever, tend t enjy making predictins abut autmatin mre than they enjy testing them. In the early 2010s many f them ludly predicted that rbts wuld kill jbs by the millins, nly t fall silent when emplyment rates acrss the rich wrld rse t all-time highs.
Few f the dm-mngers (末日论者) have a gd explanatin fr why cuntries with the highest rates f tech usage arund the glbe, such as Japan, Singapre and the Republic f Krea, cnsistently have amng the lwest rates f unemplyment.
Here we intrduce ur first attempt at tracking AI’s impact n jbs. Using American data n emplyment by ccupatin, we single ut white-cllar wrkers.
White-cllar rles are thught t be especially sensitive t generative AI, which is becming ever better at lgical reasning and creativity. Hwever, there is as yet little evidence f an AI hit t emplyment. In the spring f 2020 white-cllar jbs rse, as many peple in service ccupatins lst their jb at the start f the Cvid-19 pandemic. And in the past year the white-cllar share f emplyment in prfessins thught t be at risk frm generative AI has risen by 0.5%.
Of curse, it’s still early days fr generative AI. Few firms yet use generative Al tls at large scale, s the impact n jbs culd merely be delayed.
Anther pssibility, hwever, is that these new technlgies will end up destrying nly a small number f rles. While Al may be efficient at sme tasks, it may be less gd at thers, such as management and wrking ut what thers need.
AI culd even have a psitive effect n jbs. If wrkers using it becme mre efficient, prfits at their cmpany culd rise which wuld then allw bsses t ramp up hiring.
A recent survey by Experis, an IT-recruitment firm, pints t this pssibility. Mre than half f Britain’s emplyers expect AI technlgies t have a psitive impact n the number f their staff ver the next tw years, it finds.
T see hw it all shakes ut, we will publish updates t this analysis every few mnths. But fr nw, a jb apcalypse seems a lng way ff.

【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Ecnmists, hwever, tend t enjy making predictins abut autmatin mre than they enjy testing them. In the early 2010s many f them ludly predicted that rbts wuld kill jbs by the millins, nly t fall silent when emplyment rates acrss the rich wrld rse t all-time highs.(然而，经济学家更喜欢预测自动化，而不是测试自动化。在2010年代初，他们中的许多人大声预测机器人将夺走数百万人的工作，但当发达国家的就业率升至历史最高水平时，他们却沉默了)”可知，经济学家喜欢预测自动化但不喜欢测试，之前预测机器人会消灭数百万工作机会，但实际上就业率却上升了，这表明机器对工作岗位的影响很难明确。故选D项。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“White-cllar rles are thught t be especially sensitive t generative AI, which is becming ever better at lgical reasning and creativity.

The effects f “weird weather” were already being felt in the 1960s, but scientists linking fssil fuels with climate change were dismissed as prphets f dm (末日预言家).
In August 1974, the ClA prduced a study n “climatlgical research as it is related t intelligence (情报) prblems”. The diagnsis was dramatic. It warned f the emergence f a new era f weird weather, leading t plitical unrest and mass migratin (which, in turn, wuld cause mre unrest).
The new era the agency imagined wasn’t necessarily ne f htter temperatures; the CIA had heard frm scientists warning f glbal cling as well as warming. But the directin in which the temperature was changing wasn’t their immediate cncern; it was the plitical impact. They knew that the s-called “little ice age”, a series f cld snaps between, rughly, 1350 and 1850, had brught nt nly drught and famine, but als war.
“The climate change began in 1960,” the reprt’s first page infrms us, “but n ne, including the climatlgists, recgnised it.” Crp failures in the Sviet Unin and India in the early 1960s had been attributed t standard unlucky weather. The US shipped grain t India and the Sviets killed ff livestck t eat. But, the reprt argued, the wrld ignred this warning, as the glbal ppulatin cntinued t grw and states made massive investments in energy, technlgy and medicine.
Meanwhile, the weird weather rlled n, shifting t a cllectin f west African cuntries just belw the Sahara. Peple in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Fas, Niger and Chad “became the first victims f the climate change”, the reprt argued, but their suffering was masked by ther struggles r the richer parts f the wrld simply weren’t paying attentin.
As the effects f climate change started t spread t ther parts f the wrld, the early 1970s saw reprt s f drughts, crp failures and flds frm Myanmar, Pakistan, the Demcratic Peple’s Republic f Krea, Csta Rica, Hnduras, Japan, Manila, Ecuadr, USSR, China, India and the US.
51. The climatlgical research by CIA shwed that ______.
A. glbal cling had mre evidence than warming
B. plitical impact was mre unpredictable than climate
C. climate change culd cause cnflicts between cuntries
D. histrical ice age had an impact n future weather
52. Why did the wrld ignre climate change warnings in the 1960s?
A. Because climatlgists lacked equipment fr bservatin.
B. Because crp failures attracted the wrld’s attentin.
C. Because climate change was a natinal secret e f Sviet Unin.
D. Because the wrld was busy develping ecnmy and technlgy.
53. Hw did the wrld respnd t the suffering f the first victims f climate change?
A. The US prvided them with grain t reduce hunger.
B. The rich cuntries failed t ntice their struggle.
C. The wrld praised their curage in the face f weird weather.
D. The African peple migrated t the area near Sahara.
54. Thrughut 1960s and the 1970s, climate warnings were ______.
A. unclear and cnfusingB. widespread and neglected
C. rare and disastrusD. frequent and insignificant
55. What is the purpse f the passage?

推理判断题。根据第二段“In August 1974, the ClA prduced a study n “climatlgical research as it is related t intelligence (情报) prblems”. The diagnsis was dramatic. It warned f the emergence f a new era f weird weather, leading t plitical unrest and mass migratin (which, in turn, wuld cause mre unrest).(1974年8月，中情局发表了一份关于‘与情报问题有关的气候学研究’的报告。诊断结果令人震惊。它警告说，一个怪异天气的新时代即将来临，这将导致政治动荡和大规模移民（反过来，这将导致更多的动荡）)”以及第三段中“But the directin in which the temperature was changing wasn’t their immediate cncern; it was the plitical impact. They knew that the s-called “little ice age”, a series f cld snaps between, rughly, 1350 and 1850, had brught nt nly drught and famine, but als war.(但是温度变化的方向并不是他们最关心的;这是政治影响。他们知道所谓的‘小冰河期’，即大约在1350年到1850年之间的一系列寒流，不仅带来了干旱和饥荒，还带来了战争。)”可知，CIA并没有特别强调全球变冷或变暖的证据，而是关注气候变化的政治影响；他们的研究表明气候变化造成的极端天气不仅带来干旱饥荒，还会导致政治动荡和大规模移民，这反过来将导致更多的动荡甚至战争；由此推知，气候变化可能导致政治动荡甚至国家间的冲突。故选C项。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But, the reprt argued, the wrld ignred this warning, as the glbal ppulatin cntinued t grw and states made massive investments in energy, technlgy and medicine.(但报告认为，随着全球人口的持续增长和国家在能源、技术和医学上进行大规模投资，世界忽视了这一警告。)”可知，世界在1960年代忽视气候变化警告是因为忙于经济发展和技术进步。故选D项。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Meanwhile, the weird weather rlled n, shifting t a cllectin f west African cuntries just belw the Sahara. Peple in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Fas, Niger and Chad “became the first victims f the climate change”, the reprt argued, but their suffering was masked by ther struggles r the richer parts f the wrld simply weren’t paying attentin.(与此同时，这种奇怪的天气还在继续，转移到了撒哈拉以南的一些西非国家。报告称，毛里塔尼亚、塞内加尔、马里、布基纳法索、尼日尔和乍得的人民‘为气候变化的首批受害者’，但他们的苦难被其他斗争掩盖了，或者世界上较富裕的地区根本没有注意到这一点。)”可知，撒哈拉以南的一些西非国家成为气候变化的首批受害者，然而他们的苦难被其他斗争所掩盖或者被富裕地区所忽视；由此可知，富裕国家并没有注意到气候变化的第一批受害者在苦难中的挣扎。故选B项。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中““The climate change began in 1960,” the reprt’s first page infrms us, “but n ne, including the climatlgists, recgnised it.” Crp failures in the Sviet Unin and India in the early 1960s had been attributed t standard unlucky weather.
