26、tension between artificial intelligence and intelligence augmentation(增加 ) A.I. versus I. A. has been at the heart of progress in computing science as the field has produced a series of ever more powerful technologies that are transforming the world. Now, as the pace of technological change continue

27、s to【 C1】 _, it has become increasingly possible to design computing systems that enhance the human experience, or now in a growing number of cases completely【 C2】 _with it. Watson is an effort by IBM researchers to advance a set of techniques used to process human language. It provides【 C3】 _eviden

28、ce that computing systems will no longer be limited to responding to simple commands. Machines will increasingly be able to pick out jargon(行话 )and even riddles. In attacking the problem of the【 C4】_of human language, computer science is now closing in on what researchers refer to as the “Paris Hilt

29、on problem“ the ability, for example, to determine whether an【 C5】 _ is being made by someone who is trying to reserve a hotel in France, or【 C6】 _to pass time surfing the Internet. Traditionally, economists have argued that while new forms of automation may displace jobs in the short run, over long

For each question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C a

33、nd D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. 51 I had a teacher once who called his students “idiots“ when they screwed up. He was our orchestra conductor, a fierce Ukrainian immigrant named Jerry Kupchynsky, and when someone played out of tune, he would stop the entire group to yell, “Wh

34、o eez deaf in first violins?“ He made us rehearse until our fingers almost bled. He corrected our wayward hands and arms by poking at us with a pencil. Today, hed be fired. But when he died a few years ago, he was celebrated: Forty years worth of former students and colleagues flew back to my New Je

35、rsey hometown from every corner of the country, old instruments in tow, to play a concert in his memory. I was among them, toting(携带 )my long-neglected viola. When the curtain rose on our concert that day, we had formed a symphony orchestra the size of the New York Philharmonic. I was stunned by the

36、 outpouring for the gruff old teacher we knew as Mr. K. But I was equally struck by the success of his former students. Some were musicians, but most had distinguished themselves in other fields, like law, academia and medicine. Research tells us that there is a positive correlation between music ed

37、ucation and academic achievement. But that alone didnt explain the belated surge of gratitude for a teacher who basically tortured us through adolescence. Were in the midst of a national wave of self-recrimination over the U. S. education system. Every day there is hand-wringing over our students fa

38、lling behind the rest of the world. Fifteen-year-olds in the U. S. trail students in 12 other nations in science and 17 in math. An entire industry of books and consultants has grown up that capitalizes on our collective fear that American education is inadequate and asks what American educators are

39、 doing wrong. Comparing Mr. Ks methods with the latest findings in fields from music to math to medicine leads to a single, startling conclusion: Its time to revive old-fashioned education. Not just traditional but old-fashioned in the sense that so many of us knew as kids, with strict discipline an

40、d unyielding demands. Because heres the thing: It works. Now Im not calling for abuse: Id be the first to complain if a teacher called my kids names. But the latest evidence backs up my modest proposal. Studies have now shown, among other things, the benefits of moderate childhood stress: how praise

41、 kills kids self-esteem: and why grit is a better predictor of success than SAT scores. All of which flies in the face of the kinder, gentler philosophy that has dominated American education over the past few decades. The conventional wisdom holds that teachers are supposed to tease knowledge out of

42、 students, rather than pound it into their heads. Projects and collaborative learning are applauded: traditional methods like lecturing and memorization derided as “drill and kill“ are frowned upon, dismissed as a surefire way to suck young minds dry of creativity and motivation. But the conventiona

43、l wisdom is wrong. 52 Which of the following about Jerry Kupchynsky is TRUE? （ A） He tortured his students when they screwed up in the class. （ B） He encouraged his students when they made mistakes. （ C） He was fired for his strict policies toward the students. （ D） He was greatly honored by his stu

44、dents when he died. 53 All of the following can be implied from Paragraph Four EXCEPT that_. （ A） the American students are falling behind the world in many fields （ B） the current education system is under great criticism of the whole nation （ C） the book industry has supplied American schools with

45、 money （ D） many people doubt the inadequate education system in America 53 The worlds leading climate scientists have set out in detail for the first time how much more carbon dioxide humans can pour into the atmosphere without triggering dangerous levels of climate change and concluded that more t

46、han half of that global allowance has been used up. If people continue to emit greenhouse gases at current rates, the accumulation of carbon in the atmosphere could mean that within as little as two to three decades the world will face nearly inevitable warming of more than 2C , resulting in rising

47、sea levels, heatwaves, droughts and more extreme weather. This calculation of the worlds “carbon budget“ was one of the most striking findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC), the expert panel of global scientists who on Friday produced the most comprehensive assessment yet of

48、 our knowledge of climate change at the end of their four-day meeting in Stockholm. The 2,000-plus page report, written by 209 lead authors, also found it was “unequivocal“ that global warming was happening as a result of human actions, and that without “substantial and sustained“ reductions in greenhouse gas emissions we will breach the symbolic threshold of 2 of warming, which governments around the world have pledged not to do. John Kerry, the US secretary of state, said in a statement: “This is yet another wakeup call: those who deny the science or choose e
