15.Four to one to the computer.That was the score.AlphaGo,a program developed by Google's London-based artificial intelligence (AI) team Deep-Mind,has just beaten a human at a really complicated game.The field of honor is a Go(围棋) board in Seoul (首尔),South Korea.Lee Sedol (李世石),a South Korean,is a world Go champion and is considered the game's most outstanding player.But he was defeated by AlphaGo.
The contest has drawn tens of thousands of online spectators who have followed the matches live on the Internet.Videos of the competition have received more than four million views since the contest began on March 9.The five-game contest took a week in all.While at a pre-match press conference,Lee said he was confident he would win five to nil (零分) or,at least,four to one,he defeated AlphaGo only once in the fourth game.
"When I look back on the three games,even if I were to go back and redo the first game,I think I would not be able to win because I misjudged AlphaGo,"Lee said at a post-game press conference on March12,following his third straight defeat.Go,which originated in China thousands of years ago,is played on a 19x 19board with black and white stones (棋子).The board's size means the number of possible moves is greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe.Go is said to be the only game that truly balances the left and right sides of the brain.According to Demis Hassabis,the leading founder of Deep Mind,Go poses a more difficult programming challenge than chess.AlphaGo's success marked the most significant milestone ever in AI.
Yet AlphaGo is only going to get smarter as it gathers more data from which it learns.Asked whether there was a ceiling to its abilities,Hassabis said he did not know."If there is,we haven't found it yet."

分析 谷歌围棋人工智能程序AlphaGo与世界围棋冠军李世石的人机大战落幕,李世石以总比分1比4告负.这场为期一周共有五场比赛的人机大战引起了许多人的关注和热情,也引起了人们对人工智能的新的认识,AlphaGo标志着人工智能的一个里程碑.
解答 25.C 细节理解题.根据第三段的Go,which originated in China thousands of years ago,is played on a 19x 19board with black and white stones 可知围棋起源于几千年前的中国,棋盘上有纵横各19条直线,有黑白两种棋子,所以选项A中的 millions of years(几百万年)不正确,选项B中的 black and red stones(黑红棋子)错误;根据Go is said to be the only game that truly balances the left and right sides of the brain.可知据说围棋是唯一真正平衡左右两边大脑的游戏,而不是选项D的唯一对大脑有好处的游戏;根据the number of possible moves is greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe.可知围棋可能移动的数量大于可观察到的宇宙中的原子数,所以围棋可能的移动超出了我们的想象.故选C.
26.D 细节理解题.根据第二段的前两句可知,本次比赛吸引了成千上万的人在网上观看直播比赛,自3月9日比赛开始以来,比赛的视频被观看已超过四百万次,所以AlphaGo与李世石之间的比赛引起了许多人的关注和热情.故选D.
27.B 细节理解题.根据倒数第二段最后一句AlphaGo's success marked the most significant milestone ever in AI.可知AlphaGo标志着人工智能的一个里程碑.故选B.
28.B 推理判断题.根据最后一段的当被问及AlphaGo是否存在能力极限时,哈萨比斯博士说,他不知道:"如果有的话,我们至今还没有发现.可知AlphaGo的智能发展无极限.故选B.
