27、comparison between different culturesCHaving a microchip implanted in a mans brain may be common in sci-fi movie plots, but it may soon become an actual possibility.Elon Musk -a US tech tycoon, founder of Space X- has been working on this technology. On Aug 28, Musk gave a display of the chip, which

28、 was implanted into the head of a pig named Gertrude.The chip, developed by Musks company Neuralink, is the size of a coin. But dont let its size fool you. The tiny chip has over 3,000 electrodes（電極）attached to flexible threads, which can monitor about 1,000 neurons （神經(jīng)元）.It collects neural signals

29、from an area of the brain, and then transmits those signals wirelessly to nearby computers, according to MSN. That enabled researchers to monitor Gertrudes brain activity while she was walking around in the display.Though the technology is still in its early stage, it is encouraging for humans. This

30、 technology would solve a lot of brain injuries and is essential for Al symbiosis( 共存關(guān)系), which will allow the human brain to combine with an artificial intelligence.When the device can be applied to humans, its main goal will be to help those who have mobility difficulties. Musk hopes this technolo

31、gy can also be used to help those with hearing and eyesight issues.Although such a device could repair those problems, putting it into practice is by no means a piece of cake. Currently, the device can transmit signals from about 500 neurons in the pigs brain. Compared to 80 billion neurons in a hum

32、an brain, this number is tiny. And to cover the whole human brain also means the electrodes have to be much smaller.Also, implanting the chip into the brain poses a potential danger. There is a risk of the immune system attacking this foreign body.Right now, the hope of controlling the brain via con

33、trolling a few neurons seems overly optimistic. There are many technological challenges . to overcome before Neuralink can put its devices to the purposes, Yuan Lanfeng, an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, told China Daily.28. What do we know about Elon Musks

34、 microchip?A. It was inspired by sci-fi movie plots.B. It is able to collect wireless signals.C It is tiny in size but powerful in function. D. It has been implanted into a humans brain,29.

36、r immune system problems.D. To contribute to the research on Al technologies.31. How does Yuan Lanfeng feel about implanting the chip into the human brain?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Optimistic.D. Challenged.DImagine you made plans with a new friend to talk on the phone. You called but there was no ans

37、wer-and you didnt get a call back. What happened? Perhaps they got held up by a work obligation. Perhaps they didnt want to meet but didnt bother to cancel. Or perhaps they had a busy week and simply forgot to write down your appointment time. In social situations like this, our minds can produce va

38、rious explanations, ranging from ones that are more understanding to ones that put blame to the other party. Psychologists refer to this as our attributional style. Past research has found that individuals with a “hostile” attributional style tend to be less satisfied with their relationships.Accord

39、ing to a new study, theyre also less happy overall. The researchers cant say for sure whether seeing people as hostile directly lowers our happiness, or whether unhappy people are just more likely to make hostile attribution in the first place. However, this study does suggest the possibility that g

40、iving people the benefit of the doubt is a practice to improve our relationships and well-being. Dorota Jasielska, lead researcher of the study, suggests that we start by developing positive and trusting social relationships. When we find ourselves surrounded by warmth and support, it can help us se

41、e the social world in a kinder light. Another important strategy is to have open and direct communication. Instead of letting your anxieties get worse, it may be better to simply talk to people about their confusing behavior. So the next time a friend cancels plans or forgets to text back, consider

42、giving him the benefit of the doubt and waiting to hear his side of things before jumping to conclusions. Assuming others have good intentions will make the world seem like a friendlier place.32.
