Passage 13
Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you'll get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.
This robot writer is real. A US company developed it to create human-like texts. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It's one of the most powerful AIs in its field, with the complete writing abilities of a real person!
People use it to write an article about history. Some ask it to take notes of presentations, and some even ask it for advice on how to communicate with people at a party.
The power of the robot lies in its speed and understanding of complicated matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding, and writing an article on the theory of evolution(进化论). But the robot can produce a well-written one in seconds.
The robot comes along at a time when AI is becoming increasingly able to do creative tasks. The materials they create are sometimes difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many ethical issues(道德问题), such as copyright(版权) and the definition(定义) of art. Since the system is largely trained on Internet text and stereotypes(刻板印象) about certain groups, these issues need humans to resolve.
1. What is this robot developed to do?
2. List the tasks that the robot can do.
3. What are the advantages of the robot compared with humans?
4. Will you use AI writing when you are doing your schoolwork? Why? (Please give two reasons.)

1. What is this robot developed to do?
It can write.
2. List the tasks that the robot can do.
Translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems, etc.
3. What are the advantages of the robot compared with humans?
It has quicker speed and can understand complicated matters.
4. Will you use AI writing when you are doing your schoolwork? Why? (Please give two reasons.)
Yes, because I can save my time and learn a lot about my subjects./ No, because if we want to express ourselves well and develop our writing ability, we need to think and write by ourselves instead of depending on AI writing.

解析
【分析】
这是一篇人工智能主题的英语阅读简答题，解题时我们可以按照“先读题干，再回原文定位对应段落，提取核心信息整理答案”的思路来完成：首先针对前3道细节类题目，逐题找到题干对应的原文位置，直接抓取匹配的关键表述，精简整理成通顺的回答即可；第4道是开放性主观题，结合自身学习实际选择支持或反对的立场，给出两个符合逻辑的合理理由就可以。
【解析】
1. 定位原文第二段第二句"A US company developed it to create human-like texts. It's one of the most powerful AIs in its field, with the complete writing abilities of a real person!"，可知这款机器人的开发目的是创作类人化文本，具备和真人一致的完整写作能力，整理得到对应答案。
2. 从原文第二段第三句"It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes."以及第三段提到的写历史相关文章、记录演示文稿笔记、给出社交建议等内容，提取所有机器人可完成的任务，精简罗列即可。
3. 定位原文第四段第一句"The power of the robot lies in its speed and understanding of complicated matters."，对比人类完成相关内容需要花费数小时调研撰写，机器人几秒就能产出优质内容，可知它相比人类的优势是速度更快，且能够理解复杂事务。
4. 本题为开放作答题，两种立场均符合要求：如果选择使用，可以从节省时间、参考学习优质内容两个角度说明理由；如果选择不使用，可以从锻炼独立写作能力、培养独立思考习惯两个角度说明理由，言之有理即可。
【答案】
1. It can write.
2. Translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems, etc.
3. It has quicker speed and can understand complicated matters.
4. Yes, because I can save my time and learn a lot about my subjects./ No, because if we want to express ourselves well and develop our writing ability, we need to think and write by ourselves instead of depending on AI writing.
