【题目】 Let us all raise a glass to AlphaGo and the advance of artificial intelligence. AlphaGo

DeepMind’s Go-playing AIjust defeated the best Go-playing humanLee Sedol. But as we drink to its success. we should also begin trying to understand what it means for the future.

The number of possible moves in a game of Go is so huge that. in order to win against a player like Lee. AlphaGo was designed to adopt a human—like style of gameplay by using a relatively recent development--deep learning. Deep learning uses large data sets“machine learning”algorithms (计算程序) and deep neural networks to teach the AI how to perform a particular set of tasks. Rather than programming complex Go rules and strategies into AlphaGoDeepMind designers taught AlphaGo to play the game by feeding it data based on typical Go moves. ThenAlphaGo played against itself, tirelessly learning from its own mistakes and improving its gameplay over time. The results speak for themselves.

Deep learning represents a shift in the relationship humans have with their technological creations. It results in AI that displays surprising and unpredictable behaviour. Commenting after his first lossLee described being shocked by an unconventional move he claimed no human would ever have made. Demis Hassabis. one of DeepMind's foundersechoed this comment“We're very pleased that AlphaGo played some quite surprising and beautiful moves. ”

Unpredictability and surprises are—or can be—a good thing. They can indicate that a system is working wellperhaps better than the humans that came before it. Such is the case with AlphaGo. Howeverunpredictability also indicates a loss of human control. That Hassabis is surprised at his creation's behaviour suggests a lack of control in the design. And though some loss of control might be fine in the context of a game such as Goit raises urgent questions elsewhere.

How much and what kind of control should we give up to AI machines? How should we design appropriate human control into AI that requires us to give up some of that very control? Is there some AI that we should just not develop if it means any loss of human control? How much of a say should corporationsgovernmentsexperts or citizens have in these matters? These important questions, and many others like themhave emerged in responsebut remain unanswered. They require humannot human - likesolutions.

So as we drink to the milestone in AI, let's also drink to the understanding that the time to answer deeply human questions about deep learning and AI is now.

1What contributes most to the unconventional move of AlphaGo in the game?

A. The capability of self-improvement.

B. The constant input of large data sets.

C. The installation of deep neutral networks.

D. The knowledge of Go rules and strategies.

2A potential danger of Al is _____.

A. the loss of human control B. the friendly relationship

C. the fierce competition D. the lack of challenge

3How should we deal with the unpredictability of AI?

A. We should stop AI machines from developing even further.

B. We should call on the government to solve these problems for us.

C. We should rely on ourselves and come up with effective solutions.

D. We should invent even more intelligent machines to solve everything.

4What's the author’s attitude towards this remarkable advance in AI?

A. Supportive. B. Optimistic.

C. Doubtful. D. Cautious.

【题目】 When you are sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins (页边的空白处) of your notebooks? If so, you are doodling. Many people think of doodling as a distraction (分心) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.

One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear 29% more. Besides, doodling can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you’ll have a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.

An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies improve organization and planning through doodling. Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes many ways of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you use all four.

You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn’t matter what the picture looks like. Even if you’re not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!

1The passage mainly tells us the ________ of doodling.

A. advantagesB. disadvantages

C. effectsD. problems

2What does the underlined word “perspective” probably mean in Paragraph 2?

A. 体验B. 观点

C. 困扰D. 机会

3How does Sunni Brown feel about doodling?

A. It helps remember better.B. It helps think creatively.

C. It involves four ways of learning.D. It needs drawing skills.

4According to the text, it is helpful to doodle when ________.

A. you want to focus your attention.B. you have a conversation.

C. you wonder in the park.D. you watch a movie.

5Where is the passage possibly taken from?

A. A book review.B. A message board.

C. A student textbook.D. A science magazine.
