16、 it might affect humans in the future, but the future is already here. In 2011, Americas Favorite Quiz Show held a competition between two men and an IBM computer named “Watson”. IBM describes Watson as “a technology that understands all forms of data and also reasons and learns.” Both men thought t

17、hey could beat Watson. Instead, the computer and its Artificial Intelligence soundly beat both of the human beings.ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MADE SIMPLEArtificial Intelligence generally refers to machines with human-like intelligence, such as problem-solving and learning. In order to be considered AI,

18、 the computer must pass the Turing test, named after Turing, a British mathematician who worked with the first computer.In the 1950s, Turing published a paper questioning whether a computer could be used to trick humans into believing they were interacting（互動(dòng)） with an actual human being. He found th

19、at if 30% of humans who interacted with a “machine”believed they were actually interacting with a human being, then the computer could be considered as AI.A simple example of AI is Apples Siri. Ask Siri to do anything, from calling a friend to booking a dinner table, and Siri can do them. Siri seems

20、 almost to be a human being. When you ask, “Are you a real person?” Siri answers, “That is a really personal question.”But just because a system can behave like a human being, that does not mean it can think like humans, Or, does it?JOINING OF HUMAN & MACHINEIt seems that our devices（設(shè)備）will turn in

21、to humans. Our phones already tell us to take an umbrella before we walk out the door. They volunteer traffic conditions so we know how long it will take to drive to work.Our devices can interact with us in a way that looks like a real conversation with another human being, like with Siri. It does n

22、ot seem crazy at all to think that AI may be programmed to actually think. If it has not already happened, it will likely happen in the near future.Have we come to the time when computers and AI have caught up to human beings? Although computers have the ability to make our life better, is it possib

23、le that they may control and destroy human beings in the end?WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDSIt seems pretty clear that in the future, were going to see a human-machine hybrid. Humans will be stronger, live longer and be smarter. Ray Kurzweil, a computer scientist, believes that within 50 years, the humans on

24、Earth will be about 50 to 80% robotic. There is no question that AI will be a part of every technology that humans create. Will it turn out be more of a benefit to humankind or will it be a risk and threaten（威脅到） humanity as we know it? If AI is programmed according to Isaac Asimovs 3 Laws of Roboti

25、cs, humans wont have a problem with machines; but for some, evil AI still stands in the way of a peaceful and safe life on Earth.1The story of computer Watson is mentioned here to tell us that _.Athe age of machines has comeBhumans make their own enemiesCAI has actually come into our lifeDhumans are

One of the grasshoppers asked an ant, “Why are you working so hard on such a hot day?”“Because you cannot find food in winter. We are getting food for win

35、ter,” answered the ant. “Its so early to find food for winter. You are a fool to work on such a hot day,” he teased (取笑) the ant. The ant was very angry and shouted at the grasshopper, “Well, go and play! You will have a bad time in winter. ”Summer was over and winter came. The grasshopper could not

36、 find food anywhere. He was both cold and hungry. He went to the ants home and knocked at the door. “Mr. Ant, Im very cold and hungry. Im dying. Please let me have something to eat,” he said. The ant opened the door and said, “Mr. Grasshopper, you played and sang and teased us in the summer. Please

But sometimes its not bad to make mistakes, and here is why.At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things.

40、Its always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is，“You cant.” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.Another good thing about mi

41、stakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt work.Finally,

42、 when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesnt mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new thi

43、ngs you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.We shouldnt spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited (有限的).There is an old saying, “If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying har

44、d enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.1If you are making a mistake, that means_.Ayoure careful Byoure kindCyoure growing Dyou know nothing2If you never try new things, you cant_.Aimprove Bcreate Cspend DA and B3After Edison failed 10,000 times, he_.Agave upBinv

46、 terrible.E17、A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms (習(xí)語), though my teacher told us the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in anamusingexperience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talki

47、ng about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be surprised. Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said，“You dont say!” “You dont say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not a right topic. “Well, Id better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk

48、 about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was wonderful.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud

49、 of it.” Soon I was interrupted (打斷) again by his words: “You dont say!” I couldnt help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didnt ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didnt you say you dont say？” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to

50、 explain, “ You dont say actually means really! It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you dont pay attention to English idioms.” “_” Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.1What does the underlined wo

54、e sky and the earth were together. There was only darkness and chaos (混沌). Pangu, a giant (巨人), was born and grew up in it for 108,000 years. One day, he woke up but couldnt see anything. He waved his axe (斧頭) so angrily that the chaos was separated all of a sudden. The light things rose up to the s

55、ky while the heavy things went down to the earth. Then, he held the sky with his head and stepped on the ground with his feet. After his death, his breath turned into the wind and clouds, his voice became the thunder (雷), his eyes became the sun and the moon, his body became the mountains, his blood

56、 became the rivers and his bones became the roads. Yugong Moving MountainsOnce upon a time, there was a very old man. He is Yu Gong. There were two mountains in front of his house. They were so high and big that it took a long time to walk to the other side. So he decided to move the mountain. A wise man laughed at him for being so foolish to think he could do it. Yu Gong said, “My sons will keep mo
