四、(2025·上海市莘光学校三模)阅读理解。
Have you ever shouted at your computer because it wasn't working? Of course, your computer can't shout back. But AI researchers have been working on computers that can argue and perhaps even win debates with humans.
IBM scientists recently published a paper in *Nature* about their new AI system—Project Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments from its opponent, the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. And then it looks for ideas that can support its own argument.
Testing on the system began in 2019. When it debated with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for the most debate competition victories. The topic was about subsidizing preschools(资助幼儿园)and Project Debater argued to support this idea. Although Project Debater lost the debate in the end, the audience said it performed very well. Interestingly, 58 per cent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge about the topic—only 20 per cent said the same about Natarajan.
According to *Scientific American*, results show that the system is able to form logical statements(有逻辑的陈述). However, . Their goal is to help humans make better decisions, according to Ranit Aharanoy, manager of the Project Debater team. “It can debate both sides, so it can very quickly help you understand both sides of the problem. Thus you can have a wider view of the problem and make a more thoughtful decision,” Aharanoy said.
Let's wait and see how Project Debater will develop in the near future.
1. According to Paragraph 2, which one below is not the way of Project Debater working?
A. It writes ideas that can support its own argument.
B. It listens to its opponent's arguments.
C. It searches online articles.
D. It debates with its opponent.
2. In the debate with Harish Natarajan in Paragraph 3, Project Debater .
A. argued to support subsidizing preschools
B. won the debate in the end
C. set a world debating record
D. often argued against itself
3. 新考法 句子回填 Which of the following can be put in “”?
A. forming logical statements is not easy
B. some people didn't believe Project Debater
C. they can develop a better system
D. winning a debate is never the researchers' goal
4. With Project Debater, we might .
A. make better decisions while solving problems
B. never make mistakes when dealing with problems
C. have fewer arguments while solving problems
D. learn how to form logical statements in arguments
5. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Project Debater team.
B. The new AI system.
C. The logical statement.
D. The wider view.

答案：四 1. A 【解析】根据第二段中“It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments from its opponent, the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. And then it looks for ideas that can support its own argument.”可知，Project Debater 听完对手的论点后，会在线搜索文章并寻找支持自己论点的观点同对手辩论，但并未提到它会自己写观点。 2. A 3. D 【解析】根据倒数第二段中“Their goal is to help humans make better decisions”可知，研究者的目标不是赢得辩论，而是帮助人类做出更好的决策，所以 D 项适合放在空处，起到开启下文的作用。 4. A 5. B 【解析】根据第二段中“IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system—Project Debater.”以及倒数第二段中“the system is able to form logical statements... it can very quickly help you understand both sides of the problem”可知，“it”指代的是“the new AI system”，即 Project Debater。

你曾经因为电脑运行不畅而对着它大喊大叫吗？当然，你的电脑不会回喊。但人工智能研究人员一直在研发能够与人辩论甚至可能赢得辩论的电脑。
IBM的科学家们最近在《自然》杂志上发表了一篇关于他们新的人工智能系统——辩论者项目（Project Debater）的论文。它可以在现场观众面前与人辩论。在听取了对手的论点后，该系统可以在不到五分钟的时间内搜索约4亿篇在线文章。然后它会寻找能够支持自己论点的观点。
对该系统的测试始于2019年。当时它与哈里什·纳塔拉扬（Harish Natarajan）进行了辩论，纳塔拉扬是一位职业辩手，拥有最多辩论比赛胜利的世界纪录。辩论的主题是关于资助幼儿园，辩论者项目主张支持这一想法。尽管辩论者项目最终输掉了辩论，但观众表示它表现得非常好。有趣的是，58%的观众表示辩论者项目增加了他们对该主题的了解——只有20%的观众对纳塔拉扬有同样的评价。
据《科学美国人》报道，结果表明该系统能够形成有逻辑的陈述。然而，__________________。据辩论者项目团队的经理拉尼特·阿哈罗伊（Ranit Aharanoy）称，他们的目标是帮助人类做出更好的决策。“它可以就问题的正反两方进行辩论，所以它能非常迅速地帮助你理解问题的两个方面。这样你就能对问题有更广阔的视野，并做出更周全的决策，”阿哈罗伊说。
让我们拭目以待，看看辩论者项目在不久的将来会如何发展。
1. 根据第二段，以下哪一项不是辩论者项目的工作方式？
A. 它撰写能够支持自己论点的观点。
B. 它听取对手的论点。
C. 它搜索在线文章。
D. 它与对手辩论。
2. 在第三段中与哈里什·纳塔拉扬的辩论中，辩论者项目__________________。
A. 主张支持资助幼儿园
B. 最终赢得了辩论
C. 创造了一项世界辩论纪录
D. 经常自相矛盾
3. 新考法 句子回填 以下哪一项可以填入“________________”处？
A. 形成有逻辑的陈述并不容易
B. 一些人不相信辩论者项目
C. 他们可以研发出一个更好的系统
D. 赢得辩论从来都不是研究人员的目标
4. 有了辩论者项目，我们可能__________________。
A. 在解决问题时做出更好的决策
B. 在处理问题时从不犯错
C. 在解决问题时产生更少的争论
D. 学习如何在辩论中形成有逻辑的陈述
5. 第四段中划线的单词“it”指的是什么？
A. 辩论者项目团队。
B. 这个新的人工智能系统。
C. 有逻辑的陈述。
D. 更广阔的视野。
