But at SAS In

12、stitute (an American developer of analytics software), my team stepped in and filled in with no questions or hesitations. My work was not left undone. My clients (客户) were patient when those picking up the pieces of projects unrelated to them needed some time to get familiar with the work. My manage

13、ment and colleagues checked on my family regularly. At last, my manager, my entire team and Human Resources Department helped me back to work at my own pace. They even changed my workspace over a weekend to better suit my personal needs before I even came back to work.You see, SAScreatesafamily. The

We help each other succeed. We celebrate team successes. We hang out after work. Our kids play together. We

16、 laugh together and cry together.Sure, we have a lot of convenience benefits at SAS. But, what really makes a difference to me is the SAS culture that the outside world doesnt always see: The balance. The companionship. The management support. The family it allows me to have.Im so eager for others t

Advances in

20、 big data, machine learning and robotics are going to give us a world where computers are effectively intelligent in terms of how we deal with them. Should you be scared by this? Absolutely, but not in the usual “robot overlords” (机器人帝国) kind of way. Instead, the real fear should be about getting hu

21、man beings wrong, not getting AI right.The key to the technology is the ability of computers to recognize human emotions based on the activation” of muscles in the face. A computer can identify the positions of facial muscles and use them to infer the emotional state of its user. Then the machine re

22、sponds in ways that take that emotional state into account.One potential application of it is to provide “emotional robots” for the elderly. Having a machine that could speak in a kind way would comfort a lonely older person. That is a good thing, right? But that wont also relieve us from questionin

23、g how we ended up in a society that takes care of the elderly because we dont know what else to do with them? Cant we have more humane solutions than robots?“Emotion data” arent the same thing as the real and vivid emotional experiences we human beings have. Our emotions are more than our faces or v

As the technology is used in the world, it can reframe the world in ways that can be hard to escape from.The technology will clearly have useful applications, but once it treats emotions as data, we may find that it is the only aspect of emot

26、ion we come to recognize or value. Once billions of dollars floods into this field, we will find ourselves trapped in a technology that is reducing our lives. Even worse, our “emotion data” will be used against us to make money for someone else. And that is what scares me about AI.1、Why does the aut

28、onal robots” for the elderly?AThe aged people will find it hard to live with them.BWhat elderly people need is much more than that.CIt cant relieve us of the pressure from modern society.DIts impossible to use them to keep the elderly healthy.3、What does the author intend to conclude in Paragraphs 4

29、 and 5?AEmotional data cant be equal to human emotions.BAI technology itself has fewer and fewer faults.CAI-built-in robots wont have the ability to understand human beings.DThe information computers get can reframe human emotions.4、How does the author think about emotion data” according to the last

41、computer compiler (编译器).Recently, though, I learned about a role model who was right under my nosemy own mother.Growing up, I knew she had worked as a secretary before I was born.

42、(海军预备队)during World War . And I knew shed worked in an office that was involved with codes (编码).

49、its so-and-sos fault. or I know Im late, but its not my fault; the car broke down.
