答案

[语篇解读] 本文主要介绍了Ray Kurzweil对人工智能的诸多预测。
25.stories story是可数名词,空前无限定词,应用复数形式。故填stories。
26.futurist 设空处与“writer”“inventor”“computer scientist”并列,应为表示职业的名词,故填futurist。
27.better 根据“than humans”可知,此处要用副词的比较级。故填better。
28.powerful 设空处作表语,应用形容词。故填powerful。
29.at be good at意为“擅长”,是固定短语。故填at。
30.are 主语“a few of his predictions”是复数,时态为一般现在时,故填are。
31.to share 句意:我们将有无线网络来共享信息。设空处应用不定式作目的状语。故填to share。
32.but 句意:如今的电脑会搜索我们问题的答案,但它们并不理解自己在搜索什么。设空处前后内容为转折关系,用but连接。故填but。
33.nearly 设空处修饰动词understand作状语,应用副词。故填nearly。
34.an 此处泛指“一个不寻常的预测”,unusual以元音音素开头,故填an。
