(1)细节理解题。根据第一段ChatGPT developer OpenAI has introduced a new tool that it says can reproduce human voices with just a short audio sample.The tool is among several tools developed by technology companies that aim to clone voices with a high level of exactness.(ChatGPT的开发者OpenAI推出了一种新工具,该公司表示,这种工具只需一段简短的音频样本就能复制人类的声音。该工具是科技公司开发的几种工具之一,旨在以高精度克隆声音。)可知,OpenAI新工具的主要功能是克隆人类的声音。故选B。
(2)推理判断题。根据第三段OpenAI said it has been working on developing the tool since late 2022.It plans to continue developing it before releasing it to the public.The company said the delayed release represents a cautious and wise effort to prevent possible misuse.(OpenAI表示,自2022年底以来,该公司一直在开发这款工具。该公司计划在向公众发布之前继续开发这款工具。该公司表示,推迟发布是一种谨慎而明智的做法,旨在防止可能的滥用。)可知,Voice Engine的发布被推迟是为了确保其安全性。故选A。
(3)词句猜测题。根据划线词上文Technology experts have also warned such tools can be used to carry out financial crimes.(技术专家还警告说,这类工具可能被用于实施金融犯罪。)以及上文For example,voices can be recorded and then reproduced to represent another individual in an effort to carry out a fraud.(例如,可以录制声音,然后重新制作,以代表另一个人进行fraud。)可知,技术专家警告这类工具可能被用于实施金融犯罪,比如录制声音然后重新制作,以代表另一个人进行欺诈。由此推知,划线词fraud意为"欺诈"。A.Task任务;B.Investigation调查;C.Cheat欺骗;D.Test测试。故选C。
(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段The company said its Voice Engine system can work in several languages.One example of such use is taking an English voice recording and producing a new audio version in another language.In an example released online,OpenAI proved a person's voice and style of speaking can remain the same in other targeted languages.(该公司表示,其Voice Engine系统可以支持多种语言。这种用途的一个例子是,将英语语音录音转换为另一种语言的新音频版本。在网上发布的一个例子中,OpenAI证明了一个人的声音和说话风格在其他目标语言中可以保持不变。)可知,Voice Engine可以保持原来的说话风格。故选D。
