People often think of the North Pole（北极） and the South Pole as similar frozen（冰冻的）
wastelands．They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there．However，the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine．
The North Pole has no land，only thick ice．Temperatures seldom go above 32°F，at which water turns into ice．Most of the time，it stays below zero．In winter temperatures are usually as low as﹣30°F．
Although conditions were very poor，people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole．About 100years ago，two men，Robert Peary and Mathew Henson，were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties．They reached the North Pole on March 8th，1909．It was really a hard trip for them．
There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic（北极圈） on foot．People who stayed there may face many problems：very cold temperatures，sudden storms，and even hunger．Most of the area is uninhabited．Few people can live in such a difficult place．
People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year，the ice would be thick and hard．However，this is not true in the Arctic．The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface．Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water（水道） called"leads"．Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes．
（1）This passage is probably from ．
A．a book review
B．a science book
C．a school report
D．a computer magazine

D．The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures．
（3）What does the underlined word"uninhabited"probably mean in Chinese？
A．气候恶劣的
B．充满危险的
C．困难重重的
D．无人居住的
（4）The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is ．
A．that the temperature suddenly drops

Artificial intelligence（人工智能），or AI in short， is the science of giving computers and machines ability to think and work like humans． AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies．
AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces． As a result， facial recognition （识别）is used a lot in the world． Chinese police use this technology to identify criminals（罪犯）． Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert． It also checks the ID of ride﹣hailing（网约车）drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile．
AI is also used in self﹣driving cars， which are believed to be the future of driving． Most drivers may wave or nod at passers﹣by to let them cross the street， but self﹣driving cars dont have this ability． Carmakers are testing a light signal system to help them"speak"to humans． The system can show what self﹣driving cars will do． For example， if a driverless car is yielding（让路）， it will lash two white lights side to side． A rapidly flashing light tells passers﹣by that the car is about to speed up
Service Robots also show you how powerful Al is． Imagine this﹣you come back home from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door． After dinner he teaches you to play the piano，just like a real music teacher． Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world． In the future． more and more service robots will become good home helpers
AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs
