Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may soon be a useful tool for doctors. It may help them better understand and treat diseases like breast cancer in ways that were never before possible.
Rishi Rawat teaches AI at the University of Southern California’s (USC) Clinical Science Center in Los Angeles. He is part of a team of scientists who are researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the breast. Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He says this data helps the machine learn. “. . . You can put the data into computers and they will learn the patterns and the pattern recognition is important to making decisions.”
David Agus is another USC researcher. He says machines are not going to take the place of doctors. “Computers will not treat patients, But they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can’t recognize by itself. Once a confirmed cancerous growth is removed, doctors still have to treat the patient to reduce the risk of cancer returning. The form of treatment depends on the kind of cancer.”
Currently, researchers take a thin piece of tissue, put it on a small piece of glass and add color to better see the cells. That process could take days or even longer. Scientists say artificial intelligence can do something better than just count cells. Through machine learning, it can recognize complex patterns, or structures, and learn how the cells are organized.
The hope is that machines will soon be able to make a quick identification of cancer that is free of human mistakes. “All of a sudden, we have the computing power to really do it in real time. . . We couldn’t have done this, we didn’t have the computing power to do this several years ago, but now it’s all changed.” Agus adds that the process could be done for almost no cost in the developing world. He says that having a large amount of information about patients is important for a machine to effectively do its job in medicine.
The University of Southern California researchers are now only studying breast cancer. But doctors predict artificial intelligence will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.

【回答】
1.A; 2.D; 3.C; 4.A 解析：1.题干的意思是在Rishi Rawat的研究中,_____。根据文章第二段提到“He is part of a team of scientists who are researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the breast. Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He says this data helps the machine learn.(他是研究人工智能和机器学习如何更容易识别乳腺癌变的科学家团队的一员。Rawat向计算机提供有关癌细胞的信息。他说这些数据帮助机器学习。)”可知,在Rishi Rawat的研究中,输入电脑的数据有助于癌症的识别。结合选项,A项输入电脑的数据有助于癌症的识别;B项目前正在研究许多癌症;C项机器学习已经取代了医生的工作;D项重点是癌症的治疗。可知本题*为A。 2.题干的意思是大卫·阿古斯在第3段中的话是用来_____。根据文章第三段大卫·阿古斯说的话提到“Computers will not treat patients, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can't recognize by itself.(计算机不会治疗病人,但它们将帮助做出某些决定,并寻找人类大脑无法自己识别的东西。)”可知,大卫·阿古斯在第3段中的话是用来解释人工智能在治疗癌症中的作用。结合选项,A项为医生提供一些建议;B项介绍癌症的发展;C项呼吁科学家研究癌症;D项解释人工智能在治疗癌症中的作用。可知本题*为D。 3.题干的意思是我们能从文本中推断出什么?A项人工智能可以为医生做决定;B项发展*家可能缺乏资金;C项人工智能有望准确识别癌症;D项长期以来,计算能力一直有助于癌症的识别。根据文章第三段提到“He says machines are not going to take the place of doctors. Computers will not treat patients, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can't recognize by itself.(他说,机器不会取代医生。计算机不会治疗病人,但它们将帮助做出某些决定,并寻找人类大脑无法自己识别的东西。)”可知,人工智能是帮助起到辅助的作用,而不会为医生做决定,故A项错误。根据文章第五段提到“Agus adds that the process could be done for almost no cost in the developing world.(Agus补充说,在发展*家,这一过程几乎不需要任何成本。)”可知,发展*家并不会有缺乏资金的问题,故B项错误。根据文章最后一段提到“But doctors predict artificial intelligence will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.(但医生预测,人工智能终有一天会在所有癌症中发挥作用。)”以及前文的内容可知,人工智能有望准确识别癌症,故C项正确。根据文章第五段提到“We couldn't have done this, we didn’t have the computing power to do this several years ago, but now it's all changed.(我们不可能做到这一点,几年前我们没有计算能力做到这一点,但现在一切都改变了。)”可知,计算能力并不是在长期以来一直有助于癌症的识别,而是现在才能做到,故D项错误。结合选项,可知本题*为C。 4.题干的意思是作者对人工智能治疗癌症的态度是什么?根据文章第五段提到“The hope is that machines will soon be able to make a quick identification of cancer that is free of human mistakes.(希望机器很快就能快速识别出没有人为错误的癌症。)”可知,作者对人工智能治疗癌症的态度是积极的。结合选项,A项积极的;B项冷淡的;C项怀疑的;D项消极的。可知本题*为A。
