Prom night has come and gone, and I received my high school diploma at last. That is a good thing that the exams are finished. I feel so excited to think clearly! It seems strange to think that in a few days time Ill be walking out school gates forever. A first thing Im going to do is to take a long vacation! Meanwhile, I find myself look back at my senior year, and thinking about that all the wonderful things that have happened.参考答案：I can hard believe it, and my school life is almost over. Prom night has come and gone, and I hardly butreceived my high school diploma at last. That is a good thing that the exams are finished. I feel so have It tooexcited to think clearly! It seems strange to think that in a few days time Ill be walking outschool days ofgates forever. A first thing Im going to do is to take a long vacation! Meanwhile, I find myself look The looking back at my senior year, and thinking about that all the wonderful things that have happened.去掉第一处：考查副词。hard作副词表示艰苦地的意思，而此处应表示我几乎不能相信的意思，故要将hard改为hardly。第二处：考查连词。句意为：我几乎不能相信，但我的校园生活几乎要结束了。前后句为转折的关系，故要将and改为but。第三处：考查时态。根据前句“Prom night has come and gone”为现在完成时时态，所以and后的并列句应保持时态一致，故要在I与received之间加have。第四处：考查形式主语。这里为主语从句，“that the exams are finished”为真正的主语，应使用形式主语it引导主语从句，故要将that改为it。第五处：考查固定搭配。这里表示我感到太过激动而无法清晰地思考，“soto”表示“太而”，而“tooto”表示“太而不能”，故要将so改为too。第六处：考查名词单复数。形容词few后接名词复数形式，故要将days改为days。第七处：考查介词。walk out表示走出，当后面接地点时应加介词of，故要在out和school之间加介词of。第八处：考查冠词。形容词最高级前应使用冠词the，故要将A改为The。第九处：考查固定用法。联系前文并根据副词meanwhile，表明作者回顾高中生活是正在做的事情，所以这里表示我发现自己正在回顾自己的高中生活，“发现某人正在做”用“find sb. doing”,故要将look改为looking。第十处：考查宾语从句。第一个that本可用来引导宾语从句，但about后接的是名词all the wonderful things， 故要去掉此处的that，而第二个that引导定语从句修饰all the wonderful things。故要去掉第一个that。【名师点睛】文章改错题中分析句式要细致谨慎，不要错过错误的点也不要错改正确的地方。如改错第十处，要清楚that是为引导从句而使用的，“thinking about that all the wonderful things that have happened”，所以当后面接的为名词而非从句时不应当使用that。三、 阅读理解21.

But she, Xiaoice, is only a virtual chatbot.Xiaoice, Microsofts latest artificial intelligence robot, was briefly released in 2014, and returned to WeChat in 2015, where she became a big hit. Millions young Chinese now exchange with her daily, The New York Times reported. On WeChat, Xiaoice is an official account. After following it, users can start text-based conversations with Xiaoice.“People loved to talk with Xiaoice for her incredible learning ability,” Liu Jinchang, a researcher at High-tech Research and Development Center under the Ministry of Science and Technology, told China Daily. Apart from her ability to identify photos and send emojis in conversations, Xiaoice gains 45 percent of her knowledge from interacting with users, China Daily reported.Chatbot programs first appeared in the mid-1960s in the US. Driven by top tech companies, they are becoming smarter and more common. For instance, IBMs latest artificial intelligence program serves as an academic consultant at Australias Deakin University, answering students questions about course schedules and financial aid. Apples Siri and Amazons Alexa have been used as voice assistants who can read news, play music and even make jokes for their users.These programs are expected to move beyond smartphones, into televisions, cars and living rooms, The New York Times pointed out. However, it may take decades before scientists develop a “Samantha”, the advanced chatbot seen in the fiction film Her. In the film, Samantha sparks a romantic relationship with her user played by US actor Joaquin Phoenix. Many viewers are enthusiastic about this fantasy of virtual soul mate.13. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A. She became a best-seller.B. She became very powerful.C. She became a moneyman.D. She became very popular.14. Which of the following can Xiaoice do?A. Do housework.B. Spread messages.C. Identify various photos.D. Read news to her users.15. What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.

C 15. A这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款聊天机器人Xiaoice，文章介绍了她的功能和特点。【13题详解】词义猜测题。根据后面的“Millions young Chinese now exchange with her daily”可知，数百万年轻的中国人现在每天和Xiaoice交流，由此推知，Xiaoice非常受欢迎。D选项表达此意。故选D。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Apart from her ability to identify photos and send emojis in conversations, Xiaoice gains 45 percent of her knowledge from interacting with users, China Daily reported.”可知，据中国日报报道，除了能够识别照片和在对话中发送表情符号外，小冰45%的知识来自与用户的互动。所以Xiaoice具备识别照片和在对话中发送表情符号的能力。故选C。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“These programs are expected to move beyond smartphones, into televisions, cars and living rooms, The New York Times pointed out. However, it may take decades before scientists develop a “Samantha”, the advanced chatbot seen in the fiction film Her”可知，这些程序被期望超越智能手机，进入电视、汽车和客厅。然而，科学家们可能要花上几十年的时间才能研发出“萨曼莎”科幻电影她中出现的高级聊天机器人。由此推知，现在的聊天机器人现在主要在智能手机上运行。故选A。
