11. B 点拨:boring和tiring用来修饰物, 排除选项A和D; 根据后一句“去看电
影”可知不是“很累的”, 排除选项C。故选B。
12. A 点拨:考查名词词义辨析。fan迷; writer作家; reader读者; kid孩子。根
据后半句“我没有看很多海盗电影。”可知, “我”不是一个海盗迷。A项符合句意。

里面最好的。”, 强调过去做过的事对现在的影响, 用现在完成时。故选C。 14. D 点拨:句意为“虽然他们是海盗, 但他们并不可怕”。表示“虽然……但
是……”, though与but不能同时连用。故选D。
15. B 点拨:考查动词词义辨析。study学习; play玩, 扮演; show给……看; learn
学习。play the role of是固定短语, 意为“扮演……的角色”。故选B。 16. C 点拨:考查形容词最高级。短文后面还提到了其他演员, 在很多演员中比
较, 用最高级; 此段最后一句还说“其他演员演得也很好。”, 据此可知此处表示“演得最好”而不是“最差”。故选C。
17. C 点拨:考查词义辨析。right正确的; good好的; well好, 令人满意地; nice
好的, 漂亮的。此处表达“表演得很好”, 修饰动词performed应用副词well, 故选C。

problem棘手的问题。根据上文可知, “这部电影取得很大的成功”, 故B项符合句意。
20. A 点拨:考查动词词义辨析。introduce介绍; lead带领; report报道; record

22. A 点拨:细节理解题。根据文中第一段中的句子“He finds the book a little
difficult but very interesting.”可知他认为这本书有点难但却很有趣。故选A。 23. D 点拨:推理判断题。根据文中第二段中的句子“So, people may feel that AI
can think and answer questions as human beings do. Before Alex read this book, he believed this, too. However, this book says it will never happen.”, 可知人工智能并不像人们想象的那样可以和人一样进行思考, 有思维, 故选D。 24. A 点拨:句意猜测题。根据文中第二段中的句子“People will soon find more
AI technologies in our lives, such as checking the tickets, the price, people's faces and fingers.”可知人工智能技术可以用在检票、计价等上面, 故人类的一些工作可以交给人工智能来完成, 故选A。

information to get the best answer.”可知人工智能仅仅是利用众多信息去得出最佳答案, 故C项表述与短文内容相符, 其余三项表述与短文内容不符, 故选C。
