2 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

A computer program has beaten a human player at the ancient Chinese board game Go（围棋）. It marked an important advance for the     1     (develop) of artificial intelligence. The program,     2     (call) Alpha Go, had taught itself how to win. It beat the European player in all five games of a match in October. The developers say     3     (it) learning ability may someday let computers help solve real world problems. Those could include making medical diagnoses and     4     (explore) scientific research.

Previous computers have beaten humans in other games. But among classic games, Go has long been viewed as the most challenging game for artificial intelligence to master. Therefore, many people find it     5    (accept) when AlphaGo won the human player.

Go involves two players who take turns putting markers on a checkerboard-like grid (格子).   Players obtain the opponent’s pieces     6     surrounding them. The rules are simple,     7     playing it is not. It’s     8     (probable) the most complex game ever created by humans.

Martin Mueller, a computing science professor,     9     (work) on Go programs for 30 years. He once said, “The new program is really a big step up from everything else that we’ve seen. It’s a very     10     (amaze) piece of work.”

5 . Now VAR technology is fully combined with the global game of soccer and made its debut (首次亮相) at the 2018 World Cup.     1    . It is actually a team who work together to review certain decisions made by the main judge by watching video replays.

The VAR team supported the judges from a centralized video room. The operators selected and provided the best angles from the relevant broadcast cameras plus two additional offside cameras.     2    . They will communicate with the judges only for clear and obvious errors or serious missed incidents. The judge can delay the restart of play at any time to communicate with the VAR team.     3    , the judge would start an official review. Then they will make a decision based on the information received from the VAR team.

    4    . Some fans believe that VAR causes too many interruptions, disrupting the flow of the game. But others just want a fair match and to see the correct call no matter what. They argue disruptions already take place as angry players crowd around a judge following a controversial decision.     5    . With much money put into modern football, governing bodies are now under great pressure to see that the correct decisions are made on the pitch and VAR is a sure step in that.

A．VAR works as video judges

B．If one team is likely to win a game

C．It is hard to avoid and VAR is necessary

D．Now VAR has incurred heated discussion

E．Once they decide an incident is reviewable

F．Throughout a match they are constantly checking for mistakes

G．VAR can serve to remove such scenes and get the game moving again

For students learned instruments, summer is always a “music season”. During vacation time, we are always busy attending various of lessons, taking exams and participate in contests. This summer I joined in a music contest but was lucky to getting the second place. It was the first time that I have played on the stage. In front of the stage were my exciting schoolmates. Facing so many people, I felt very upset at first, but that my teacher said kept me going ahead. Fortunately, I was given a silver medal, it increased my confidence. In short, nothing is impossible to willing heart.

7 . After having a child, I found my regular exercise interrupted. I was not only busy: I also lacked the motivation.

Looking over my travel arrangements before I left. I______phrases such as “3-hour hike______primitive forests” and “sliding with a rope down waterfalls”, and I started to feel a little______.

However, as we made our way through the forests and were______with amazing views of______waterfalls, this team of strangers______me to go on. Being physically active with a group motivated me to reach the______or the valley below-rather than simply lying down on the forest floor and giving up,______I might have done if I were alone.

____confirm my experience: Group exercise can really start a new attitude toward fitness. “People get a better______in a group than they do on their own,” said Allison Kimmel, a group______instructor. That’s because other people______both support and competition. “Humans are______animals and the shared experience of facing a challenge______is compelling(不可抗拒的),” said David Ezell, the CEO of fitness provider Darien Wellness.

8 . Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow, life and death, and everything else in between.

    1    We dance from Florida to Alaska, from north to south and sea to sea. We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties and just to fill the time.

“I adore dancing,” says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in Iowa. “I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.” Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful.     2    It’s great to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.”

    3    “I can tell you about one young couple,” says Bridges. “They’re learning to do traditional dances. They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile.     4    ”

So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier? Andrea Hillier says, “Dance, like the pattern of a beating heart, is life. Even after all these years, I want to get better and better.    5     I find it hard to stop! Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”

A．So why do we dance?

B．Dance in the U.S. is everywhere.

C．If you like dancing outdoors, come to America.

D．My older students say it makes them feel young.

E．I keep practicing even when I’m extremely tired.

F．Dancing seems to change their feeling completely.

G．They stayed up all night long singing and dancing.
