When humans smell the perfume

20、 of someone they love, they may have an immediate, emotional reaction thats not necessarily cognitive (认识的). So is it in dogs. But since dogs have a more sensitive smell than humans. their responses would likely be even more powerful than the ones we might have. In our experiment, however. the owner

21、s of the dog were not physically present. The canine brain responses were being caused by something distant in space and time.

By changing the order of the words and by adding a range of auxiliary verbs (助动词) and suffixes (后缀), we can turn a state

35、ment into a question, state whether an action has taken place or is soon to take place, and perform many other word tricks to convey different meanings. However, the question which many language experts cant understand and explain iswho created grammar?Some recent languages evolved due to the Atlant

36、ic slave trade. Since the slaves didnt know each others languages, they developed a make-shift language called a pidgin. Pidgins are strings of words copied from the language of the landowners. They have little in the way of grammar, and speakers need to use too many words to make their meaning unde

37、rstood. Interestingly, however, all it takes for a pidgin to become a complex language is for a group of children to be exposed to it at the time when they learn their mother tongue. Slave children didnt simply copy the strings of words used by their elders. They adapted their words to create an exp

38、ressive language. In this way complex grammar systems which come from pidgins were invented.Further evidence can be seen in studying sign languages for the deaf. Sign languages are not simply a group of gestures; they use the same grammatical machinery that is found in spoken languages. The creation

39、 of one such language was documented quite recently in Nicaragua. Previously, although deaf children were taught speech and lip reading in the classrooms, in the playgrounds they began to invent their own sign system, using the gestures they used at home. It was basically a pidgin and there was no c

40、onsistent grammar. However, a new system was born when children who joined the school later developed a quite different sign language. It was based on the signs of the older children, but it was shorter and easier to understand, and it had a large range of special use of grammar to clarify the meani

41、ng. Whats more, they all used the signs in the same way. So the original pidgin was greatly improved.Most experts believe that many of the languages were pidgins at first. They were initially used in different groups of people without standardization and gradually evolved into a widely accepted syst

42、em. The English past tense“ed” ending may have evolved from the verb “do”. “It ended” may once have been “It end-did”. It seems that children have grammatical machinery in their brains. Their minds can serve to create logical and complex structures, even when there is no grammar present for them to

43、copy.1、What can be inferred about the slaves pidgin language?AIt was difficult to understand.BIt came from different languages.CIt was created by the landowners.DIt contained highly complex grammar.2、What is the characteristic of the new Nicaraguan sign language?ANo consistent signs were used for co

44、mmunication.BMost of the gestures were made for everyday activities.CThe hand movements were smoother and more attractive.DThe meaning was clearer than the previous sign language.3、Which idea does the author present in the last paragraph?AEnglish grammar of past tense system is inaccurate.BChildren

45、say English past tense differently from adults.CThe thought that English was once a pidgin is acceptable.DExperts have proven that English was created by children.4、What is the best title for the passage?AThe Creators of Grammar BThe History of LanguagesCWhy Pidgins Came into Being DHow Grammar Syst

46、ems Are Used25（10分） There was a lot of news related to artificial intelligence, or AI, and machine learning. Among the stories were two dealing with direct competitions between humans and machines.In one competition, machines that used AI performed better than human beings in a high-level reading te

47、st. Two natural language processing tools beat human in the experiment. One of the tools was built by the American technology company Microsoft. The other was created by Chinese online seller Alibaba Group.In another competition, a computer took on humans in live, public debates.The event demonstrat

48、ed how AI-powered computers are increasingly being developed to think and sound like humans. The organizer of the debates, U. S. technology company IBM, announced split results. It said a majority of those watching said they felt the machine had done more to improve their knowledge of the subject. B

49、ut, the human got more praise for communicating their ideas.This year, we also explored the many ways AI and machine learning are now being used. For example, some U. S. judges use machine learning systems to help them decide when, and for how long, criminals should be jailed. The system uses comput

50、ers to examine data from thousands of court cases.One fast-growing area of AI is facial recognition, which is increasingly being used for security purposes. Recently, Atlantas Hartsfield-Jackson airport became the first in the U. s. to permit passengers to use facial recognition technology to get on

51、 flights. A Chinese company showed off an AI system it developed to recognize individuals by body shape and walking movements. The system is already being used by Chinese police in Beijing and Shanghai.In addition, machine learning was used during 2018 to predict results of the World Cup soccer comp

Other technology systems are being used to follow farm animals and wildlife to collect information on their activ
