18.With the coming of big data age,data science is supposed to be starved for,of which the adaption can point a profound change in corporate competitiveness.Companies,both born in the digital era and traditional world are showing off their skills in data science.Therefore,it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type.
Mr Carlos Guestrin,machine learning professor from University of Washington argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years,making data scientists-people trained to analyze large bodies of information-key workers in this emerging"cognitive"technology economy.There are already critical applications that depend on machine learning,a subfield of data science,led by recommendation programs,fraud detection systems,forecasting tools and applications for predicting customer behavior.
Many companies that are born digital-particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle-are all-in when it comes to data science.Pinterest,for instance,maintains more than 100 machine learning models that could be applied to different classes of problems,and it constantly fields requests from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem.
The factors weighing on many traditional companies will be the high cost of mounting a serious machine-learning operation.Netflix is estimated to spend﹩150m a year on a single application and the total bill is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account.
Another problem for many non-technology companies is talent.Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle,only about 1,000 have deep learning skills,compared to 100,000who can apply other machine learning techniques,says Mr Goldbloom.He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expand their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field.
The biggest barrier to adapting to the coming era of"smart"applications,however,is likely to be cultural.Some companies,such as General Electric,have been building their own Silicon Valley presence to attract and develop the digital skills they will need.
Despite the obstacles,some may master this difficult transition.But companies that were built,from the beginning,with data science at their center,are likely to represent serious competition.

63.Which one is obstacle for many traditional companies to popularize learning operation?C
A.Technological problem.
B.Expert crisis.
C.High cost.
D.Customer interactions.
64.What can not be inferred from the passage about the machine learning?D
A.Machine learning operations are costly in Netflix.
B.Machine learning plays an important role in existent applications.
C.Machine learning experts are not highly paid in some non-technology companies.
D.Machine learning models are not sufficient to solve business problems in Pinterest.
65.The underlined word in the 3rd paragraph"fields"most probably meansC.
A.a(chǎn)voids  B.createsC.solvesD.classifies
66.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A
A.Data science:a forefront force in tech business
B.Corporate competition:an obstacle to the transition
C.Machine learning:a key to smart technology

9.
A.I learned that a poorly worded apology can result in lasting anger.
B.Righting a wrong can be especially challenging when it involves family members,who may be inclined to cite histo ry as an excuse for hurtful behavior.
C.I suggest apologizing for your own part in the incident,however small it may be.
D.I recently discovered that a sincere apology can be a powerful medicine with surprising value for the giver as well as he recipient.
E.The best apologies are short and don't include explanations that can undo them
F.And even when an apology is offered with the best of intentions,it can be seriously undermined by the way in which it is worded
Most people say"I'm sorry"many times a day fora host of trivial affronts-accidentallybumping into someone or failing to hold open a door.These apologies are easy and usually readily accepted,often with a response like,"No problem."However,when"I'm sorry"are the words needed to right truly hurtful words,acts or inaction,they can be the hardest ones to say. (67)F.
(68)D.After learning that a neighbor who had assaulted me verbally was angry about an oversight I was not aware I had committed,I wrote a letter in the hope of ending the hostility.Without offering any excuses,I apologized for my overnight in etiquette and respect.I said I was not asking for or expecting forgiveness.Then I delivered the letter with a jar of my homemade jam.Expecting nothing in return,I was greatly relieved when my doorbell rang and the neighbor thanked me warmly for what I had said and done.
According to psychologist Harriet Lerner,apologies followed by rationalizations are"never satisfying"and can even be harmful.When"but"is tagged onto an apology,it's an excuse that counters the sincerity of the original message. (69)E,"she wrote in her new book Why Won't You Apologize?
Nor should a request for forgiveness be part of an apology.The offended party may accept a sincere apology but still be unready to forgive the mistake.Forgiveness,should it come,may depend on a demonstration going forward that offense will not be repeated.
(70)B.History can be used as an explanation,not an excuse.It should involve a conversation that allows the hurt party to express anger and pain if an apology,however sincere,is to heal a broken connection,"Lerner said.
"I'm sorry"are the two most healing words in the English language.Knowing how to say"I'm sorry"is an ability to take a clear look at how our behavior affects others and to assume responsibility for acting at another person's expense.

3.When it's five o'clock,people leave their office.The length of the workday,for many workers,is defined by time.They leave when the clock tells them they're done.
These days,the time is everywhere:not just on clocks or watches,but on cell-phones and computers.That may be a bad thing,particularly at work.New research shows on that clock-based work schedules hinder morale and creativity.
Clock-timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours.For example:a meeting from 9a.m.to10a.m.,research from 10a.m.to noon,etc.On the other hand,task-timers have a list of things they want to accomplish.They work down the list,each task starts when the previous task is completed.It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.
What,then,are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways?Does one make us more productive?Better at the tasks at hand?Happier?In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier,they had participants organize different activities-from project planning,holiday shopping,to yoga-by time or to-do list to measure how they performed under"clock time"vs"task time".They found clock timers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives.Task timers are happier and more creative,but less productive.They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening,and seize opportunities that come up.
The researchers argue that task-based organizing tends to be undervalued and under-supported in the business culture.Smart companies,they believe,will try to bake more task-based planning into their strategies.
This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office,but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy:work organized by clock time.While most people will still probably need,and be,to some extent,clock-timers,task-based timing should be used when performing a job that requires more creativity.It'll make those tasks easier,and the task-doers will be happier.

28.What does the author think of time displayed everywhere?C
A.It makes everybody aware of time.
B.It is a convenience for work and life.
C.It may have a negative effect on creative work.
D.It clearly indicates the fast pace of modern life.
29.What did Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier find in their experiments about clock-timers?D
A.They seize opportunities as they come up.
B.They always get their work done in time.
C.They have more control over their lives.
D.They tend to be more productive.
30.What do the researchers say about today's business culture?B
A.It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.
B.It does not attach enough importance to task-based practice.
C.It places more emphasis on work efficiency than on workers'lives.
D.It aims to bring employees'potential and creativity into full play.
31.What do the researchers suggest?A
A.Task-based timing is preferred for doing creative work.
B.It is important to keep a balance between work and life.

Life is a matter of choice.Seemingly,it means a choice of concrete (具體的)things.But in fact,it means choosing a way of life.Life is to be lived and enjoyed,not to be wasted or complained about.
Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the threat from the life-and death disease---SARS.Yet,even during those dreadful times,some suffering people remained optimistic.Instead of wearing white masks,some people turned to colorful ones,and thus displayed a happy mood.And some creative people dubbed SARS to mean"SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING."People who survive these kinds of circumstances decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the hardships.
Although we cannot choose our appearance,inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities (逆境),we do have the right to choose to live optimistically,to love our lives,to have dreams,and to cherish hopes.
Every morning when we get up,we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day.

Our Life Rests on Our Choice
Faced with disasters and adversities,some people choose to stay optimistic and determine to carry on regardless of the hardships.Life,to some extent,rests on our choice.
Life is full of ups and downs.When the time comes for us to make choices,we should be aware of the importance of a positive attitude.A positive attitude somehow resembles the sail of a ship,which offers us the right direction(高分句型一).
As a teenager,it is of great significance to take a positive attitude towards life.To stay energetic,I will stick to an exercise schedule.I will also keep myself informed of the current events and communicate more with others,becoming socially connected.
All these mentioned above will be beneficial for me to grow into an optimistic and confident young man.Only by doing so can I adjust myself to society more easily and stay motivated towards a better life(高分句型二).(150 words).

7.Toddler World Nursery was delighted to employ a trainee-twenty-two-year-old Jonathan Brown-as their first male nursery schoolteacher.He was also the only man who applied for the job,but,insists Margery Bowman,head teacher of Toddler World,by far the best applicant."Both boys and girls will benefit from the experience of having a male role in the nursery."Says mother of two,Margery.

But Jonathan is a rare male in a female world.Only 2% of nursery teachers are men and this hasn't changed for ten years.Roger Olsen of the National Nursery Trust said,"Men are often viewed with anxiety and suspicion in a children's environment.Or they are expected to do things the way women would do them.But men bring different things into childcare and this has to be recognized."Jon athan agrees.He is a qualified under-7s football coach,and plans to introduce football lessons to the nursery for boys and girls.
What do Jonathan's friends think of his choice of career?
"Actually,most of them are pretty cool about it now,"he says,"though they do make jokes about nappies.And I've found that girls are actu ally quite impressed-so that's good!"

25.Why was Jonathan employed by Toddler World Nursery?A
A.He was the best among all the applicants.
B.He was the only man who applied for the job.
C.He would be able to teach kids to play football.
