历年英语六级作文真题:企业与消费者之间的互信
Section A
When Elon Musk says that his new priority is using artificial intelligence to build domestic robots, we should look forward to the day in admiration.
Mr. Musk is a guy who gets things done. The founder of two tech companies, Tesla Motors and SpaceX, is bringing electric vehicles to mass market and 26 humans to live on other planets. This sounds like so much hot air, but the near $13 billion fortune this entrepreneur has 27 comes from practical achievements rather than hypothetical ones.
A lot of clever people are 28 about artificial intelligence, fearing that robots will one day become so 29 that they’ll murder all of us. These fears are mostly 30 : as with hysteria about genetic modification, we humans are generally wise enough to manage these problems with speed and care.
And just think of how wonderful it would be if you had a live-in robot. It could, 31 , be like having a babysitter and a nurse rolled into one--or, if that required 32 intelligence beyond the power of Mr. Musk’s imagined machine, at least someone to chop the carrots, wash the car and mow the lawn. Once purchased and trained, this would allow the 33 user to save money and time, freeing up 34 space in our busy lives to read a good book.
That is why we welcome Mr. Musk’s latest 35 , and wish him well. As long as robots add to the sum of human happiness, reduce suffering, and create time to read world-class journalism, we should be their fans. Especially since journalism is one job robots will never do.
A)amassed

26. D. enabling
解析:根据上下文语法结构,此处必须是动词现在分词的形式,而misleading意思不对,因此选enabling, enable somebody to do something, 意为“可以使某人做某事”。
27. A. amassed
解析:根据上下文语法结构,在has后面的这个单词,应该是动词的过去分词形式,而exaggerated意思不对,因此选amassed, amass是“积累”之意。
28. N.terrified
解析:本空所在句表明一些人对于机器人的态度,在逗号后面有fearing, 表示害怕,所以这里的意思应该和后面的意思保持一致,所以用terrified, be terrified about表示对某事有恐惧。
29. L. smart
解析:本空在so之后,应该填形容词,根据上下文的意思,是说一些人害怕机器人变得太聪明,所以只能选smart.
30. F. exaggerated
解析:本空之后的意思主要是说人们有能力控制机器人,所以这种恐惧是“过于渲染的,夸张的”,根据本空所要填的词性和上下文意思,我们只能选择exaggerated.
31. E. eventually
解析:根据上下文,本空只能填副词,而generously的意思并不符合上下文意思,所以选择eventually, 表示“终究”。
32. C. emotional
解析:本空在名词intelligence之前,为形容词,而选项中其他形容词都不符合句子意思,只有emotional intelligence符合。
33. B. casual
解析:本空在名词user前,因此只能填形容词,terrified, smart, emotional已经选过,剩下的形容词casual在这里正好合适。
34. J. precious
解析:本空在space前,需要填形容词,根据上下文意思,这句话想表达的含义是“机器人可以帮忙碌的人们节省时间,为人们提供宝贵的空间”,因此选“precious”。
35. O. venture
解析:根据本句意思,我们欢迎埃伦马斯克的什么,这里需要填一个名词。这个名词就是马斯克对机器人使用的商业尝试,而venture是“商业冒险”,符合题意,因此选venture.
