21．（6分）The next generation of artificial intelligence (AI) may be sitting right beneath you, at least if furniture maker Ikea has any say in the matter. The Swedish furniture company’s “future-living” research lab in Copenhagen is conducting a survey to understand what people want when it comes to smart furniture.
AI is now walking into more aspects of people’s daily lives. Self-driving cars are just around the corner, and AI robots can play and beat the best players of strategy games. As smart home technologies have become more ubiquitous, products ranging from smart electrical outlets（插座）to smart smoke alarms are flooding the market. Therefore, it’s not surprising that Ikea would be moving in the same direction.
Exactly why people would want their sofa or bed frame to speak to then, track their daily movements or offer help is not yet clear. Though Ikea’s the new survey doesn’t directly answer that question, it does provide a hint of what people would feel comfortable with. Most participants wanted a more human0like form of virtual（虚拟的）assistants, as opposed to one that is more robotic. In terms of the ideal gender（性别）of the assistants, the most popular choice was neither male nor female. Few wanted a religious form of AI.
Just as with human friends, most wanted AI friends that were like them, affirming their own worldview. They wanted an AI assistant that was reasonably intelligent-that could collect data to predict what a person wanted before he or she asked, and that could prevent someone from making mistakes.
This is not the first time that Ikea has set foot in the field or futuristic technologies. In addition to wireless charging tables and chainless bikes that never rust（生锈）, the furniture giant has also pictured smart kitchens that can cook the best meal. To decide on how intelligent you want your next sofa or bookshelf to be, you can take Ikea’s survey online.
1、What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Beautiful. B．Common.
C．Normal. D．Environment.
2、What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A．The differences between robot-like and human-like assistants.
B．What form of AI assistants people want.
C．What kind of friends people want.
D．The popular robots on the market.
3、Most people who received the survey wanted an AI assistant that could ________.
A．help them became smarter
B．communicate with them without troubles
C．have its own worldview
D．deal with their problems in advance
4、Which of the following products are from Ikea?
A．Smart sofas that can speak to you.
B．Smart beds than can track your daily movements.
C．Wireless charging cars.
D．Rustless bikes without chains.

23．（8分）It's a little hard to figure out the rules for sure but the baby African buffalo (水牛）seems to have the upper hand. The two stand a couple feet apart, staring at each other. Behind them, their mothers look on with the kind of indifference (不关心）of mothers everywhere who see their kids playing a harmless game.
The alarm went off about half an hour ago, the second time tonight. Here，one bell means "elephant ",two "rhino"(犀牛），and three and four，I really can't remember for what，because when you' re awoken by bells in the middle of the night，your first thought won’t be Animal", But as soon as I realized it was the rhino alarm, I was running for the stairs.
Yet I'm the only one watching the animals stare-down. Either nobody else died of a heart attack when the bells went off, or I was the only one in the entire hotel who didn't turn the alarm switch to off before going to bed.
The Ark, a hotel shaped like the biblical ark(圣经的方舟), lies in the highlands of Kenya’s Aberdare National Park, about 100 kilometers north of Nairobi. At the Ark's prow (船首) are huge windows overlooking a waterhole. Earlier tonight，I'd watched a pack of wolves, buffalos and elephants. And now, at Three or so in the mornings I'm down for the round of rhino bells. The first time, 2.5 hours ago, it was a single black rhino, which came down, got a drink, and left.
I'd have been sorry for the lost sleep. I've already arranged with a guide to take me out at sunrise for the so-called "should-never-missed" bird-watching, where well get to see 30 species, but really, how many times in your life will you get to wake up and say，"Wow! Rhino? Isn't that the definition of a pretty good right? Last week we went from Uganda into Kenya，Before I left home, I thought I'd be happy with ten elephants and five or six giraffes on the whole trip.I didn't dare to dream the rhino.

A．It's bothering but two bells are welcome.
B．It should be turned off whenever it rings,
C．Its visitors have a chance to see buffalos.
D．It is a very bad way to wake the guests up.
3、What does the underlined part “died of a heart attack" in paragraph 3 mean ?
A．died unexpectedly
B．felt extremely excited
C．felt very uncomfortable and tired
D．suffered from a terrible heart attack

24．（8分）For families on vacation, a playground provides a welcome break. It can also provide a glimpse into the local culture, from the setup of the park to the ways families interact. Here are the designs that live up to that challenge.
Fruit and Scent Playground, Stockholm
Is there a picky eater on a steady diet of chicken fingers and cheese? Perhaps a trip to Sweden’s Fruit and Scent Playground will change his or her culinary (烹饪的) tune.

Now, who can say you can’t play with your food?
Nishi Rokugo Park, Tokyo

In total, more than 3,000 tires of different sizes are used to create tunnels, bridges, tall sculptures for climbing and, of course, tire swings.

Bicentennial Children’s Park, Santiago, Chile
Bicentennial Children’s playground in Metropolitan Park was built to celebrate 200years of Chilean independence and improve the lives of Santiago citizens.
