In 2017, AlphaGo defeated Chinese player Ke Jie to become the world’s No 1, ending thousands of years of human dominance(控制)in the game. AlphaGo is an artificial intelligence(AI)Go-playing program.1.
Artificial intelligence(AI)is usually defined as the science of marking computers do things that require intelligence when done by humans.2.These include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language-understanding.
3.In fact we are increasingly depending. upon computer-based artificial intelligence. As Charlie Qrtiz said, head of AL at the Massachusetts-based software company Nuance Communication, “It has opened a window for us.”Smartphones, self-driving cars, intelligent robots,etc. are constantly coming into our life. According to a recent survey, half of the world’s AI experts believe human level machine intelligence will be achieved by 2040. This will open up huge possibilities for the enrichment of mankind, from tackling climate change and treating disease to labour- saving devices.
4.Physicist Stephen Hawking last year warned that unless we take care, board games might be the least of it. “The development of full artificial intelligence could mean the end of the human race.”5.They believe AlphaGo’s victory is a reminder of how fast the world is overcoming the obstacles in the way of AI, and its distribution in the world about us. Although there may yet be no evidence that computers will ever shake off their human masters, we should still treat these development with the humility and caution they deserve.
A. Other scientists have also expressed the concern.
B. Artificial intelligence has both advantages and disadvantages.
C. Defeating a human Go master is not the only thing AI can do.
D. Artificial intelligence will bring us disasters instead of benefits.
E. It was designed by an American Artificial intelligence company.
F. Not all experts hold the optimistic attitudes to the development of AI.
G. Research in AI has so far focused on some special fields of intelligence.

Stop Negative Talk
“I’m so fat,” one of your friends says. The girl next to her joins in, “Well, I hate my hair today.” Without thinking, you respond: “No, you are not fat! I am fat. And my hair is flat and boring.”1.
It is easy for people to engage in self-critical conversations, and once it starts there is often pressure for you to join in.2. Maybe it is because “just talking” feels harmless. But before you know it, those opinions flow out of your conversations and into your life, where they start eating away at your self-respect.
3. When you start talking about yourself in a negative way, you are not only affecting your self-respect, but your friends’! When you criticize yourself, your friends might think you have the same standards for them. You have heard that it is important to treat others the way you want to be treated, but there is also value in treating yourself like you treat your friends. If you wouldn’t criticize your friend for the same thing, chances are that you are being too hard on yourself. So, don’t start it.
But what if someone else starts? For example, your friend feels insecure about how well he played in his soccer game, so he puts himself down: “I suck at soccer.”4. Ask him, “Do you really think that? Why?” Maybe he is actually upset about a comment someone made, or is just getting down on himself over one bad play. Whatever it is, talking through the real issue will help him more than slipping into another negative talk.
It is important to talk to your friend about your insecurities, but make sure you are not talking about them just to put yourself down.5. Instead of just focusing on the negative, talk about what makes you and your friends beautiful and unique—including what you love about your body and what you have accomplished. When you show yourself love, you set yourself as an example, and everyone benefits from you positively.
A. Negative talk affects self-respect.
B. Criticizing yourself helps nobody.
C. But why do we hesitate to praise ourselves?
D. But why is it acceptable to talk so negatively?
E. All it takes is just one comment and the negative talk starts.
F. It is better to resist negative conversations and create more balanced ones.
G. Before everyone puts himself down, see if you can get to the root of the problem.

The Internet and the World Web (網) are great places to be right now. We use the word "place" because so many of the things you can do online are similar to the things you can do wherever people gather together-in homes , schools , libraries , shopping centers , or at family reunions(團聚)or town meetings. The Net allows people to learn shop, find important information, and communicate, whether they're local, global or simply virtual (虛的) .
The Web is useful. You can find old friends online. You can research and book flights, check the weather, find breaking news, find out information about schools and colleges. You can even place an order for books, CDs, computers and cars.
The Internet is also fun. You can write to old friends or check out their web pages, enjoy web - based soap operas, laugh at online jokes, join in a live Net Event, chat with other Internet surfers(漫游者) , check to see if your name appears anywhere on the Web .
Millions of users log on to the Net every day, and it's not just to do research. There's a lot of fun there. That's one reason why it's called web "surfing".
Of course, the first step to using the Web for business or for fun is learning how to work a "web browser"(瀏覽器). If you're new to computers, it may take a while before you are completely comfortable with your browser. Don't worry. You don't have to be a computer whiz(專家). The basics of a web browser are very much like the basics of modem computers
—learning how to point and click the mouse, learning how to scroll(滾動) up and down a page of text, and learning how to use pull - down menus. Again, be patient. There's no time limit on web surfing . Give yourself a chance to explore (探索) the browser itself while you explore the Web.
1.The writer compares the Web to ______.
A. places to visit B. places to gather together in
C. some easy job D. things you can do online
2.We can learn from the text that the Web is not only ______ but also
A. of great use; of great value B. of great use; of great enjoyment
C. useful; funny D. of some use; of a little interest
3.To use the Web, all we have to do is to learn how to_______ .

Though the political field is still ruled by men, we can still see another splendid scene — those women with high heels and makeup are playing an active role on the political stage.
Theresa May — the Iron Lady who cleans up the mess
She is the second female Prime Minister and Conservative Party leader after Margaret Thatcher. The mess left by men is finally for women to clean up. After the worldwide–shocking “Brexit”, Cameron has successfully thrown Theresa into trouble. A remain campaigner as she was, Theresa insists that “Brexit means Brexit”. Since taking office, she has already shown her calmness, humbleness, efficiency and powerful leadership.
Merkel — the unquestioned “Big Sister”
From a PhD in physics to a role on the political stage, she is Merkel, the first female chancellor(總理)in German history. Facing the European migrant crisis, she advocated the policy of “Open the Door” and put forward the slogan “We are able to manage it”. However, the coming of refugees not only caused serious social security problems but also brought terrorism and political tsunami.
Hillary — a woman’s presidential dream
Born in a wealthy business family and graduating from Law School of Yale University, Hillary struggled for thirty years on the US political stage and was once the First Lady, Federal Senator and Secretary of State. She is an outstanding but controversial woman in this day and age, since she is rich in not only political experience but also scandals. Hillary, early 70 years old now, ran for the US president twice, only ending up with a broken dream.
Park Geun-hye — a woman who married the country
In December, 2012, the 60-year-old Park Geun-hye was elected the first female president of South Korea. She once pledged: “I don’t have parents, nor do I have a husband and children, and the country is the only one I wish to serve.” Yet the “confidante(紅顏知己)scandal” was undoubtedly a political earthquake for her, ending her presidency and forcing her out of office in March, 2017.
1.What does Theresa May mean by saying Brexit means Brexit?
A. She will carry on Brexit. B. She will postpone Brexit.
C. She will oppose Brexit. D. She will think twice about Brexit.
2.Who ran for presidency twice but in vain?
A. Merkel B. Theresa May
C. Hillary D. Park Geun-hye
3.What can we infer about the four women?
A. Theresa May is better than the former Prime Minister.
B. Merkel is doubtful about her policy towards the refugees.
C. Hillary is the most successful First Lady.
D. Park Geun-hye was in office for not more than five years.

There are many superstitions(迷信) in Britain, but one of the most widelyheld is that it is unlucky to walk under a ladder—even if it means stepping off the pavement into a busy street!
①Walking under a ladder
If you must walk under a ladder you can avoid bad luck by crossing your fingers and keeping them crossed until you've seen a dog. Alternatively, you must lick your finger and make a cross on the toe of your shoe, and not look again at the shoe until the mark has dried.
②Umbrella
Another common superstition is that it is unlucky to open an umbrella in the house—it will either bring misfortune to the person that opened it or to the household. The superstition could date from the old time when its purpose was to act as a sunshade. If opened indoors, it might be considered to be an attack on the sun. Anyone opening an umbrella indoors in fine weather is unpopular, as it inevitably brings rain!
③Number 13
The number 13 is said to be unlucky for some, and when the 13th day of the month falls on a Friday, anyone wishing to avoid an inauspicious event had better stay indoors.
④Seven years bad luck
The worst misfortune that can befall you is caused by breaking a mirror, as it brings seven years of bad luck! The superstition is supposed to have originated in ancient times, when mirrors were considered to be tools of the gods.
⑤Black cat
In the UK, black cats are generally considered lucky in the UK, even though they are connected with witchcraft(巫術):You are said to be lucky if a black cat crosses your path.
