【分析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一家公司提供利用人工智能监控员工的服务,相关人士认为这种做法侵犯了员工的隐私权,也有人认为这种做法可能会适得其反。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“One company offering such services is London-based start-up Status Today, Its AI platform relies on a regular supply of employee data,”可知,人工智能依赖于定期提供的员工数据来监控他们,故B项正确。
【33题详解】
观点态度题。根据倒数第二段中的“It seems like they are just using the reputation of AI to give an air of lawfulness to old-fashioned workplace surveillance”可知,Javier Ruiz Diaz认为他们只是以人工智能之名给老式工作场所监控营造一种合法的氛围,由此可知Javier Ruiz Diaz对监控系统的态度是否定的,故D项正确。
【34题详解】
代词指代题。根据画线词前的“You have a right to privacy and you shouldn’t be expected to give”可知,你有隐私权并且你不希望在工作中放弃这种权利,由此可知画线词指代的就是前面提到的“隐私权”,故C项正确。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It will bother people, and that could be counterproductive if it affects their behavior”可知,Phil Legg认为监控系统会干扰人们,如果它影响人们的行为,它可能会适得其反,由此可知,Phil Legg的担忧表明监控系统可能没有预想的那么有效,故C项正确。
【点睛】说明文的观点态度题一般难度较大,我们需要通过人物所说话语气的褒贬来揣摩其态度,例如本篇第2题,根据倒数第二段中的“It seems like they are just using the reputation of AI to give an air of lawfulness to old-fashioned workplace surveillance”可知,Javier Ruiz Diaz认为他们只是以人工智能之名给老式工作场所监控营造一种合法的氛围,“营造一种合法的氛围”含有明显的贬义,言外之意是这种做法是不合法的,由此可知Javier Ruiz Diaz对监控系统的态度是否定的。
