二、阅读理解
Hi! I'm Tom, a Grade 7 student. I love science best. One of the coolest things I know is AI (人工智能).
AI is becoming more and more important in our daily life. You may not see it, but it's working for you in many ways.
In our homes, smart speakers (智能音箱) are a great example of AI. We can ask them to play music, tell us the weather, or answer questions. At schools, AI can help teachers check students' homework and give useful advice (建议). AI is also useful in hospitals. It can look at X-ray pictures and help doctors find problems faster.
AI is amazing, but we still need to use it carefully. We should always remember that we are the masters (主人) of AI, not the other way around.

解析:
1. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“We can ask them to play music, tell us the weather, or answer questions.”可知,智能音箱可以播放音乐、播报天气、回答问题,文中没有提到它可以做作业,因此选B。
2. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“At schools, AI can help teachers check students' homework and give useful advice.”可知,人工智能可以帮助老师检查学生的作业,其余选项的内容文中均未提及,因此选A。
3. 细节理解题。文章第三段分别介绍了AI在家庭(智能音箱)、学校(辅助教师工作)、医院(辅助医生诊疗)三个场景的用途,说明AI在这三个地方都很有用,因此选B。
4. 细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“We should always remember that we are the masters (主人) of AI, not the other way around.”可知,我们要记住人类是人工智能的主人,因此选C。
