We will probably r

11、emain in control of technology and it will help us solve many of the worlds problems. However, no one really knows what will happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may help us, ignore us or destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but

12、 whether that is true will be partly up to us.Scientists B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can match or go beyond human intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the near future, their

13、 intelligence may well take off and develop at an ever-increasing speed. Human beings evolve biologically very slowly and we could be quickly substituted. In the short term, there is the danger that robots will take over millions of human jobs, creating a large underclass of unemployed people. This

14、could mean large-scale poverty and social unrest. In the long term machines might decide the world would be better without humans.Scientists C: Im a member of the campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator stamping on human skulls and think of whats happening r

15、ight now: military machines like drones, gun turrets and sentry robots are already being used to kill with very little human input.

We think endlessly over the things weve said or done. We pick teams-shy or outgoingand then make our decisions through

20、 the label weve chosen. Other people, though-that can be a little more of a puzzle. Its not likely that you can get much insight (深入了解) from taking a personality quiz on someone elses behalf. But new research suggests that all that self-reflection youve been doing may be helpful herea team of psycho

21、logists found a close link between greater self-awareness and social intelligence. The team leader Bockler said, “To get inside other peoples heads, then it may be best to start with your own.”Over the course of three months, Bockler and her colleagues collected data from 161 people between the ages

22、 of 20 and 50 as they experienced a “thoughtful training” designed to help them focus on their inner lives. The participants who improved most over course of the training were also the ones who showed the most growth in how easily they could infer another person, s mental state, a skill known as the

23、 theory of mind.Bockler believes these results are especially important given our current state of affairs. “Many of the global challenges that we face todaytaking in refugees (难民), overcoming between-group conflicts, or leading more sustainable (可持续的) livesrequire that we put ourselves in the shoes

24、 of others,” she said.Still, we tend to seek inner consideration as a goal in itself, while underestimating (低估) the ways it can also help us connect more closely to others. Self-awareness isnt limited to just usit spreads out into our relationships, too. Taking all those personality quizzes when yo

25、ure bored on your computer may not be the most helpful in that regard (就这一点而言), but by trying to become more aware of your own thoughts, you can begin to shape yourself into someone more sympathetic (富有同情心的), more smart and better at understanding the world outside your head.1、What is implied in the

26、 first paragraph?AA personality quiz turns out a puzzle.BPeople prefer to do personality quizzes.CThere are few strategies to understand others.DSelf-awareness has nothing to do with social intelligence.2、What is the theory of mind according to the text?AA pattern of personal behaviors.BA sign of in

29、message from Laura, a former classmate. “Hey Steve,” she said, “I know youve always been an animal lover. Ive just had a baby and I cant keep my mini pig.”Being fond of animals, I knew I wanted the pig. I just had to figure out how to make it happen. I lived in a two-bedroom single-level house in Ge

30、orgetwon, Ontario. Its tough to bring a pig back to the house I share with two dogs, two cats, and my lifelong partner.But I was not letting that pig go. So I told Laura Id take the animal. When I got home with the pig, I hid her in the bedroom, and began to prepare a dinner for Alisha her favourite

31、 bacon cheeseburgers. Its better to make her happy before introducing the new member to her.When I led her to the bedroom and showed her the surprise, Alisha stood in the doorway like a statue. It took her a few seconds to know what I had done. She complained about my unreasonable action. She insist

32、ed there was no more room in the house.I knew I was wrong, but I hoped I could smooth things over. Soon enough, the lovely pig did the smoothing for me. Never had we felt such joy as she brought to us. We got her a name “Esther”.Esthers arrival changed our lives. A few weeks later, we decided to sto

33、p eating bacon. We figured it was our turn to try to change the world for other animals. A few months later, we moved to a farm where we cared for abandoned animals so far, six rabbits, six goats, two sheep, one horse, three cows and three chickens.1、Who does the underlined phrase “my lifelong partn

37、uch influence other people can have over your identity.

38、 ask someone out on a date to begin a new relationship. But few people choose their existing friendships deliberately.Theres no “getting rid of people”. People are always dropping into and out of each others lives. Associations grow into friendships, and friendships fade into associations. You dont

Shouldnt you always be loyal to your friends? Once you have a close friend, even if their influence on you is slightly harmfu

40、l, shouldnt you stick by them?Loyalty to a friend sometimes means having to let go. It means being loyal to their highest and best as well. If someone is destroying his health by smoking, for example, you arent showing loyalty by smoking right along with him. True loyally sometimes requires that you

41、 break damaging connections, get yourself back on solid ground, and then decide what you can really do to help your friend.It can take a lot of courage to tell someone, “Im sorry, but I cant have you in my life anymore. But even though this might seem like a selfish act at times, its often the best
