Jon Hoffman was sitting at a red light when he saw a man run out of a store carrying a plastic donation jar full of cash. The Plano, Texas, detective# dressed in plain clothes but wearing his badge and gun, caught the man and pinned him to the hood of his car. But Hoffman had trouble containing the thief, and they got into a struggle.

“The detective has a martial (军事的) arts background, and he said he thought the suspect must have a martial arts background, too, because he was able to break away so easily,” a Plano police spokesperson said.

The detective called out for help as a crowd gathered. Among those watching: Andre Harvey and Kirby Sample, two day laborers. Harvey did what has become common these days—he took out his phone and hit record. “I hate to say it, but I thought that this policeman was doing something stupid,” Harvey said. “But when he asked for help, I thought, well, there won’t be a shooting if I get over there in time.” Harvey jumped into action —while he was still recording the video—as did Sample.

“Harvey caught hold of the suspect’s arms, while Kirby seized his legs, and they were able to get the suspect to the ground to help Detective Hoffman put the handcuffs (手铐)on,” said the police spokesperson. The 27-year-old suspect was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charity jar he stole held less than $ 50.

“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life,” Harvey told WFAA. “It feels good to be on the right side and do something positive.”

After the arrest, the three men got to know each other over steaks and ribs at a local steak house — Hoffman’s treat, as a thank-you. But the rescuers say Hoffman deserves credit too. “It could have turned real ugly,” Sample told KFOR. com. “He handled himself like a real professional.”

1.What made Hoffman call for help when arresting the suspect?

A. He was not on duty. B. He couldn’t control the suspect.

C. He needed witnesses to support him. D. He wanted to push the thief into the car.

2.Why did Harvey and Kirby record the scene at the beginning?

A. To follow the fashion B. To record the cop’s violence.

C. To keep track of the criminal. D. To avoid being involved in the incident.

3.What can be inferred about Harvey?

A. He was ready to violate the law. B. He was out of work at that time.

C. He had a good martial arts background. D. He might have had some illegal conducts.

4.What is Harvey and Sample’s attitude towards Hoffman?

A. Appreciative. B. Prejudiced.

C. Skeptical. D. Admirable.

The term “to extend an olive(橄榄) branch” means to make an offer of peace or reconciliation(和好). This term has Biblical(圣经的) origins, coming from the section of the Old Testament that deals with the flood; the sign that the flood is over is an olive branch brought back to the ark(方舟) by a dove. Olive branches were also symbols of peace in Ancient Greece and Rome, and they continue to be used in various works of art that are meant to suggest peace.

Some people have suggested that the olive was a very deliberate and well-considered choice as a metaphor(比喻) for peace, because olive trees famously take years to mature. War is typically very hard on the trees because people cannot take the time to nurture them and plant new ones. Therefore, the offer of an olive branch would suggest that someone is tired of war, whether it is an actual war or a falling out between friends.

In Ancient Greek and Roman times, people would offer actual olive branches. In Rome, for example, defeated armies traditionally carried olive branches to indicate that they were giving in, and the Greeks used them into weddings and other ceremonies. In the modern era, the branch is usually metaphorical, rather than actual, not least because the plants can be a bit difficult to obtain.

Many people agree that peace negotiations at all levels of society are a good idea. Between nations, obviously, it is important to extend an olive branch to ensure mutual safety and to help the world run more smoothly. This act can also be important on a personal level, as resolving conflict and learning to get along with others is viewed as an important life skill in many cultures.

At some point in their lives, many people will be advised to extend an olive branch to settle a dispute or resolve an issue. Some people believe that it takes an immense amount of courage to take this action, as it often comes with an admission of wrongdoing and regret.

1.According to the Bible, ________.

A. an olive branch suggests flood is coming

B. the ark is made of olive tree wood

C. an olive branch means flood is over

D. a dove loves to settle on the olive branch

2.The olive is considered a good choice as a metaphor for peace for the following reasons EXCEPT _______.

A. olive trees famously take years to mature

C. war is typically very hard on the trees

D. people cannot take the time to nurture them while at war

3.Why are actual olive branches seldom used in modern times?

A. Olive trees are being protected now. B. Olive trees are planted only in certain countries.

C. Olive trees can be far to seek. D. There is no need to use real olive branches.

4.It can be learned from the text that to extend an olive branch________.

A. is not important on a personal level B. is only important between nations

C. takes a lot of courage D. is an important life skill in many cultures
13．What he has done isworth praising  ．
他的行为值得表扬．
12．Hollywood's theory that machines with evil（邪恶） minds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly．The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence（AI） may become extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want．In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener，who founded the field of cybernetics（控制论），put it this way："If we use，to achieve our purposes，a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot effectively interfere（干预），we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire．"
     A machine with a specific purpose has another quality，one that we usually associate with living things：a wish to preserve its own existence．For the machine，this quality is not in-born，nor is it something introduced by humans； it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if it is dead．So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetching coffee，it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task．If we are not careful，then，we could face a kind of global chess match against very determined，super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict with our own，with the real world as the chessboard．
     The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of computer scientists．Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a kind of firewall，using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world．Unfortunately，that plan seems unlikely to work：we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans，let alone super intelligent machines．
     Solving the safety problem well enough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not easy．There are probably decades in which to plan for the arrival of super intelligent machines．But the problem should not be dismissed out of hand，as it has been by some AI researchers．Some argue that humans and machines can coexist as long as they work in teams--yet that is not possible unless machines share the goals of humans．Others say we can just"switch them off"as if super intelligent machines are too stupid to think of that possibility．Still others think that super intelligent AI will never happen．On September 11，1933，famous physicist Ernest Rutherford stated，with confidence，"Anyone who expects a source of power in the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine．"However，on September 12，1933，physicist Leo Szilard invented the neutron-induced（中子诱导） nuclear chain reaction．

67．Paragraph 1 mainly tells us that artificial intelligence mayA．
A．run out of human control
B．satisfy human's real desires
C．command armies of killer robots
D．work faster than a mathematician
68．Machines with specific purposes are associated with living things partly because they might be able toA．
A．prevent themselves from being destroyed
B achieve their original goals independently
C．do anything successfully with given orders
D．beat humans in international chess matches
69．According to some researchers，we can use firewalls toD．
A．help super intelligent machines work better
B．be secure against evil human beings
C．keep machines from being harmed
D．avoid robots'affecting the world
70．What does the author think of the safety problem of super intelligent machines？C
A．It will disappear with the development of AI．
B．It will get worse with human interference．
C．It will be solved but with difficulty．
D．It will stay for a decade．
