23、ion. The first, kwashiorkor (恶性营养不良), is typified by the bloated look. The opposite of what we associate with starvation.

25、well as protein, sufferers may weigh only half as much as normal. With fat gone, the skin hangs in wrinkles or draws tight over bones. With marasmus comes anemia, diarrhea, dehydration, and a very hungry appetite. Children, whose growing bodies require large amounts of protein, have to suffer in gre

26、atest numbers, but perhaps only three percent of all child victims suffer the extreme stages described.Scientists are doing best to develop new weapons against malnutrition and starvation. But two thirds of the human population of 3.9 billion live in the poorest countries which also have the highest

27、 birth rates. Thus, of the 74 million people added to the population each year, four out of five will be born in a country unable to supply its peoples nutritional needs.（分数：10.00）(1).Malnutrition has caused much suffering to millions of people all over the world for a long time_.（分数：2.00）A.but the

33、00)For years there have been endless articles stating that scientists are on the verge of achieving artificial intelligence, that it is just around the corner. The truth is that it may be just around the corner, but they havent yet found the right clock.Artificial intelligence aims to build machines

34、 that can think. One immediate problem is to define thought, which is harder than you might think.

They see patterns, which computers dont.This wooden approach to thought characterizes machine intelligence. Computers have

37、no judgment, no flexibility, no common sense. So-called expert systems, one of the hottest areas in artificial intelligence, aim to mimic the reasoning processes of human experts in a limited field, such as medical diagnosis or weather forecasting. There may be limited commercial applications for th

38、is sort of thing, but there is no way to make a machine think about anything under the sun, which a teenager can do. The hallmark of artificial intelligence to date is that if a problem is severely restricted, a machine can achieve limited success. But when the problem is expanded to a realistic one

39、, computers fall flat on their display screens. For example, machines can understand a few words spoken individually by a speaker that they have been trained to hear. They cannot understand continuous speech using an unlimited vocabulary spoken by just any speaker.（分数：10.00）(1).From the passage we k

40、now that the author_.（分数：2.00）A.thinks that scientists are about to achieve artificial intelligenceB.doubts whether scientists can ever achieve artificial intelligenceC.does not think that scientists have found real artificial intelligenceD.is sure that scientists have achieved artificial intelligen
