Money is the root of all evil and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying. Scientists at the University of California. Berkeley, US，announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do unethical (不道德的)things, such as lie or cheat，than poorer people.

The scientists did a series of eight experiments. They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS，《美国国家科学院院刊》).

They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley. They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks. Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive cars ignored a pedestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving more modest (不豪华的)cars.

In another experiment，a group of college students was asked if they would do unethical things in various everyday situations. Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change. Students from higher-class families were more likely to act dishonestly.

According to the scientists，rich people often think money can get them out of trouble. This makes them less afraid to take risks. It also means they care less about other people’s feelings.

Finally，it simply makes them greedier. “Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more，and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self-interest，’’said Paul Piif, lead scientist of the study.

Piff pointed out that the findings don’t mean that all rich people are untrustworthy(不能信赖的)or all poor people honest. He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts and values in different ways.

1.By saying “money is the root of all evil”，the author wants to___________.

A. draw readers’ attention to the research

B. link wealth with bad behavior

C. show how the saying proves the findings

D. defend rich people who do unethical things

2.Which of the following is TRUE about the experiments the scientists did，according to the scientist quoted?

A. Most wealthy people are not trustworthy.

B. The findings were not persuasive enough and the scientists will do further experiments.

C. Drivers of more expensive cars are more likely to break traffic rules.

D. Students from poorer families are not as honest as students from richer families.

3.Why did the scientists do the experiments?

A. To show how social status affects people's ethics.

B. To show people’s instincts and values in different ways.

C. To test whether the saying “money is the root of all evil” is true.

D. To show the difference between higher-class people and lower-class people.

4.What does the article really want to show us?

A. Money is the root of all evil.

B. The rich are more likely to act badly.

C. The saying is reasonable.

D. All rich people are untrustworthy.

Eight Things a Burglar Won’t Tell You

Should you spend your money on a home security system? A look inside a burglar’s mind might help you decide.

1．Of course I look familiar．I was here just last week cleaning your carpets，painting your shutters，or delivering your new refrigerator．

2．Hey，thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last week．While I was in your home，I unlatched the back window to make my return a little easier.

3．To you，leaving that window open just a crack during the day is a way to let in a little fresh air．To me，it’s an invitation which I am more than happy to accept.

Writing one or two articles a day is a fair goal for a human writer. By contrast, the Wordsmith platform can produce up to 2,000 articles a second! Wordsmith is one example of natural language-generation software, often referred to as a robot journalist. To be fair, the software doesn’t start from the beginning, like a human writer might. Instead, the software takes a set of structured data and transforms it into readable text.

Natural language-generation software, such as Wordsmith and Quill, does its work by identifying trends and highlights in sets of data. The software then searches its own dictionary for the words to express its findings.

Why keep human writers around

Although this type of software writes faster than any human, it requires sets of structured data to work. That’s why it’s especially useful for writing earnings reports and other types of “dry” writing. Humans, on the other hand, are good at turning their unstructured thoughts directly into prose. The reports produced by Wordsmith and Quill read naturally, and they can match the tone of human writers. But for now, the robot journalists probably won’t steal many jobs or win any Pulitzer Prizes!（普利策奖）

Current applications of natural language-generation software

Financial reports: The software is commonly used by banks or traders to analyze large amounts of financial data and then produce reports in plain English.

Health and fitness: The software can turn data gathered from wearable devices or fitness trackers into personalized reports. The writing tone can even be adjusted to sound more encouraging!

Sports reporting: The software is often used to turn real baseball, basketball and football statistics into exciting stories.

1.What does natural Language-generation software refer to?

A. The Wordsmith platform.

B. A robot journalist.

C. A special dictionary.

D. Articles written by computer.

2.Natural language-generation software can_________.

A. discover the world’s focuses through the Internet

B. write well enough to win Pulitzer Prizes

C. produce articles in a tone similar to human’s

D. write such beautiful prose as human writers

3.We can learn from the passage that natural Language-generation software ________.

A. has taken the place of human writers currently

B. is only able to turn structured data into dry reports

C. is widely used in all the fields

D. works properly only with the help of sets of structured data

4.Nowadays Natural language-generation software is seldom used by_________.

A. schools B. banks

C. hospitals D. newspapers

Everyone has a dream. We are on the way to achieve it whether the way is smooth or toughly. As senior 3 student, I have the same dream as my classmates that I can be admitted to an ideal university. In the past three years, I have done everything I can to equip myself with that I have learnt from my teachers. Not only have I enjoyed the pleasure of study but also I have got closer to my dream. Anxious and pressure did discourage from me at times. Besides, with the encouragement of my teachers and classmates, I think I’ll make it.

I’m sure that there has still a long way to go to achieve my dream. No matter how challenged it is, I’ll make it come true. As the proverb said,” Where there’s a will, there’s a way.”
