题目解析
第14题答案：C
解析：
题目:作者在第一段对AI提出了什么观点?
原文:
But many experts believe this restriction is very temporary. By mid-century, we may have artificial general intelligence (AGI)-machines that can achieve human-level performance on the full range of tasks that we ourselves can tackle.
参考译文:
但是很多专家认为这种限制是很短暂的。到本世纪中叶，我们可能会拥有人工通用智能(AGI)---能够在我们自己可以处理的所有任务中实现人类水平的性能的机器。与题目中C选项:“未来很难看清AI能力的限制”一致，答案为C。
第15题答案：A
解析：
题目:作者第二段在做什么?
原文:
Machines will be free of many of the physical constraints on human intelligence. Our brains run at slow biochemical processing speeds on the power of a light bulb, and their size is restricted by the dimensions of the human birth canal.
参考译文:
机器将摆脱对人类智力的许多物理限制。我们的大脑只能以缓慢的生化处理速度运行，运行功率只相当于一个灯泡，而且大脑的大小也受到人类产道尺寸的限制。这一句是在解释为什么机器会超越人类，与A选项一致，故答案为 A。
第16题答案：B
解析：
题目:作者为什么要提到 King Midas?
原文:
But the more powerful Al becomes, the more important it will be to specify its goals with great care. Folklore is full of tales of people who ask for the wrong thing, with disastrous conseguences - King Midas, for example,might have wished that everything he touched turned to gold, but didn't really intend this to apply to his breakfast.
参考译文:
但AI变得越强大，就越重要的是要非常谨慎地指定其目标。民间传说中充满了人们要求错误东西的故事，这会带来灾难性的后果一例如，米达斯国王可能希望他触摸到的一切都变成金子，但他并没有真正打算把这一点应用于他的早餐。与题目中的B选项“说明定义的目标不明确时会出错”的观点一致，故答案为B。
