试题分析：本文是一则笑话。一位男士在火车上遇到了一位女士，和她聊天时的一段对话。
66. sit—sat考查动词时态。本文说的是过去的事情，所以要用一般过去时。故答案为sit改为sat。
67. year—years 考查名词单复数。Thirty后面接名词应该用复数。故答案为year改为years。
68. every—each考查代词。each other意思是彼此，指两者的彼此。故答案为every改为each。
69. 去掉to考查介词。replied后面没有宾语，所以不需要介词to。故答案为去掉to。
70. man –woman考查逻辑一致。前面提到的是woman。故答案为man改为woman。
71. too—either考查副词辨析。too表示也，常用于肯定句；either表示也，常用于否定句。本句是否定句。故答案为too改为either。
72. healthy—health考查词性辨析。be bad for意思是对……有害处，后面接名词、代词或动名词。healthy是形容词。故答案为healthy改为health。
73. other—others考查代词辨析。others表示别人，other后面应该还要加名词。故答案为other改为others。
74. But—And考查连词辨析。前后两句话不是转折关系，而是并列关系。故答案为But改为And。
75. with—with a考查冠词。smile用作名词时,意为“微笑,笑容”,指脸上表示欢喜快乐的表情,有时也可指“苦笑”,是可数名词,常用单数形式。故答案为在smile前加a。

Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m very much glad to hear that your international shopping center will
build non-smoking supermarket. In my opinion, it is a good idea to do so, for it can not only help the smokers to smoke less, and it can also do good to other customers’ health. Since you had given up selling cigarettes, the customers who don’t like smoking is sure to support you. In addition, smoke in the shopping center may cause fire, which is very dangerous to both your possession and the safety of the customers. In a word, the non-smoking supermarket will not effect your business. To the contrary, it will help you attract more customers who want to keep health.
Best wishes!

参考答案：
第一行 much 删掉     第二行build 后添 a
第三行 and 改成 but             第四行had 改成have    is 改成are
第五行 smoke 改成smoking       第六行 possession 改成possessions
第七行 effect 改成affect    To 改成 On   最后一行 health 改成healthy

三、 阅读理解
21. Artificial intelligence can ide ntify skin cancer in photographs with the same accuracy as trained doctors, say scientists. The Stanford University team said the findings were "incredibly exciting" and would now be tested in clinics. Eventually, they believe using AI could revolutionize healthcare by turning anyone’s smart-phone into a cancer scanner.
The AI was repurposed from software developed by Google that had learned to spot the difference between images of cats and dogs. It was shown 129,450 photographs and told what type of skin condition it was looking at in each one.
It then learned to spot the hallmarks of the most common type of skin cancer: carcinoma, and the most deadly:
melanoma(黑色素瘤). Only one in 20 skin cancers are melanoma, yet the tumor(肿瘤) accounts for three-quarters of skin cancer deaths.
The experiment, detailed in the journal Nature, then tested the AI against 21 trained skin cancer doctors. One of the researchers, Dr Andre Esteva, told the BBC News website: "We find excitedly, in general, that we are on par with excellent skin cancer doctors."
However, the computer software cannot make a full diagnosis, as this is normally confirmed with a tissue biopsy(活检). Dr Esteva said the system now needed to be tested alongside doctors in the clinic. "The application of AI to healthcare is, we believe, an incredibly exciting area of research that can be leveraged to achieve a great deal of societal good," he said. "One particular route that we find exciting is the use of this algorithm on a mobile device, but to achieve this we would have to build an app and test its accuracy directly from a mobile device." Incredible advances in machine-learning have already led to AI beating one of humanity's best Go players.
And a team of doctors in London have trained AI to predict when the heart will fail.
12. From the passage we can infer that ________.
A. Artificial Intelligence must replace human one day
B. we can use Artificial Intelligence to cure skin cancers
C. we can use smart-phone to scan our skin at present
D. the research will be of great help to us and our health care
13. Which one will he agree with according to Dr Esteva?
A. Artificial Intelligence has beaten all of humanity’s best Go players.
B. Artificial Intelligence could support assessments by GPs.
C. We still need professional doctors with the help of the system.
D. There are too many disadvantages for Artificial Intelligence.
14. The underlined words “on par with” in Para 4 likely mean ________.
A. inferior to    B. equaled by    C. superior to    D. opposite to
15. What’s probably the best title of this passage?
A. Cancer Doctors Are Out
B. An APP Scanning Skin Cancers
C. Artificial Intelligence—change our future
D. Artificial Intelligence—as good as cancer doctors
参考答案：
12. D    13. C    14. B    15. D
猜测词义题是高考中必考的题型。因此，掌握一定的猜词技巧很有必要。阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系，我们可以利用语境和常识来推测、判断某些生词的词义。比如第3小题猜测on par with的词义，划线词所在句子We find excitedly, in general, that we are on par with excellent skin cancer doctors.其中excitedly（兴奋地）是关键词，说明研究结果是一件令人兴奋的事，故A项“不如”、C项“超过，优于”和D项“反对”都不符合语境，A、D项不会让人兴奋，C项根据常识不可能；只有B项“与……相等”才让人兴奋，即人工智能的诊断水平与优秀的皮肤癌症医生相等，故选B。
22. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中，选出最佳选项。
The time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark on (从事) in later life, a new study has suggested. Being born in a certain month appears to indicate the statistical likelihood of what job a person will end up with, the study by the Office for National Statistics found. Researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life.
A child born December is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector, they found. A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots. Meanwhile, April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions, births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player, doctor or dentist.
The study was derived (推导出) by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census, the Daily Mail reported. Although these trends may be difficult to explain, correlations (关联) between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis. Spring babies are at greater risks of illnesses including schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, asthma and autism. They may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.
60. What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The year when a baby is born may not be associated with the job he or she will end up with. 
B. Researchers have found the birth month could affect both intelligence and length of life.
C. The birth time can give signs of future development of what professions people will start.
D. The study indicates there are correlations between birth months and some terrible risks.
61. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. A child born in December is more likely to become an artist while someone born in January will tend to be a dentist.
B. A February birth appears to have the possibilities of being an artist while March babies appear to become pilots.
C. Children born in April and May are said to have equally balanced chances in their future professions.
D. Births in the summer months mean they have few chances to earn a lot of money as a football player, doctor or dentist.
62. What do the researchers also study besides the analyses of the trends between birth months and professions?
A. Some serious diseases from births of many children.
B. A lot of mental illnesses caused by giving birth to children.
C. The secret of births and healthy problems.
D. The relationship between birth months and certain health problems.
