课时分层作业(十一)Ⅰ.单句语法填空1．The musician along with his band members has given(give) ten performances in the last three months.2．Every doctor and every nurse was (be) given a new shirt yesterday.3．Many a boy and many a girl has (have) made the same mistake.4．He answered that there was (be) a lamp, two pens and six books on the desk.5．Serving the people is (be) my great happiness.6．How he can speak so good English interests(interest)us all.7．A teacher and writer is (be) going to give us a speech tomorrow.8．When fat and salt are removed (remove) from food, the food tastes as if it is missing something.9．Neither he nor I have (have) finished the experiment so far.10．Each boy and each girl was given(give)a gift on Christmas Day last year.Ⅱ.完形填空Face Shape Lets AI Spot Rare DisordersPeople with genetic syndromes (综合征) sometimes have revealing facial features, but using them to make a quick and cheap diagnosis can be 1 given there are hundreds of possible conditions they may have.A new neural (神经系统) network that analyses photographs of faces can help doctors 2 the possibilities.Yaron Gurovich at biotechnology firm FDNA in Boston and his team built a neural network to look at the overall impression of faces and 3 a list of the 10 genetic syndromes a person is most likely to have.They 4 the neural network, called DeepGestalt, on 17，000 images correctly labeled to match more than 200 genetic syndromes.The team then asked AI to 5 potential genetic disorders from a further 502 photos of people with such conditions.It included the correct answer among its list of 10 responses 91 per cent of the time.Gurovich and his team also 6 the neural network's ability to distinguish between the different genetic mutations (变异) that can lead to the same syndrome.They used photographs of people with Noonan syndrome, which can result from mutations in any one of five genes.DeepGestalt correctly identified the genetic source of the physical appearance 64 per cent of the time.It's clearly not 7 ， but it's still much better than humans are at trying to do this.As the system makes its assessments, the facial regions that are most helpful in the determination are 8 and made available for doctors to view.This helps them to understand the relationships between genetic make­up and physical appearance.The fact that the diagnosis is based on a simple photograph raises questions about 9 ．If faces can reveal details about genetics, then employers and insurance providers could, in principle， 10 use such techniques to 11 against people who have a high probability of having certain disorders. 12 ，Gurovich says the tool will only be 13 for use by clinicians.This technique could bring significant 14 for those who have genetic syndromes.The real value here is that for some of these ultra­rare diseases, the process of diagnosis can be many, many years.This kind of technology can help narrow down the search space and then be confirmed through checking genetic markers.For some diseases, it will cut down the time to diagnosis dramatically.For others, it could perhaps add means of finding other people with the disease and, 15 ， help find new treatments or cures.【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。

故选C]5．A.adjust B．identifyC．change D．cureB　[结合后文可知，研究小组让人工智能去鉴定出潜在的遗传疾病]6．A.recognized B．showedC．tested D．acquiredC　[结合后文可知，Gurovich和他的团队还测试了神经网络区分可能导致同一综合征的不同基因突变的能力]7．A.perfect B．acceptableC．specific D．workableA　[根据后文可知，这项技术还不够完美，但是在这方面已经比人类做的好得多了]8．A.covered B．highlightedC．excluded D．monitoredB　[结合后文可知，在系统进行评估时，对判断最有帮助的面部区域会被突出显示，供医生查看，这有助于他们理解基因组成和外表之间的关系]9．A.privacy B．accuracyC．reality D．objectivityA　[结合后文“If faces can reveal details about genetics”可知，这种诊断会引起人们对泄露隐私的疑问]10．A.legally B．regularlyC．secretly D．efficientlyC　[结合后文可知，这种技术将只能供临床医生使用，那么公司老板和提供保险的人只能偷偷使用。

故选C]11．A.vote B．fightC．argue D．discriminateD　[在公司老板的角度看来，老板们会使用这种技术来测试那些有很高概率患有某种疾病的人]12．A.Furthermore B．SimilarlyC．Otherwise D．HoweverD　[结合上下文语境可知，前后句意为转折关系，故用however]13．A.available B．impossibleC．ready D．rareA　[此处指该技术将只供临床医生使用]14．A.challenges B．damagesC．benefits D．concernsC　[这种技术可以帮助缩小诊断范围，然后通过检查基因标记得到确认，由此可知这种技术可以给那些有遗传综合征的人带来显著的好处]15．A.by contrast B．on the contraryC．in addition D．in turnD　[对另一些疾病来说，它可能增加找到其他患者的方法，反过来，也可以帮助找到新的治疗方法或治愈方法]Ⅲ.语法填空Now，I want to tell you about a new e。
