【解析】本文主要講了谷歌園區(qū)不用割草機(jī),而用山羊來清理草地。

1Googlestore之間是主動關(guān)系,所以用現(xiàn)在分詞。

2句意:與你輸入搜索欄文字相關(guān)的網(wǎng)頁。Relevant to是固定用法,意思是與……有關(guān)的。

3句意:大多數(shù)的它的園區(qū)是綠色的。所以填its。

4句意:那里有許多草,以至于需要許多割草機(jī)。So…that…是固定句型。

5句意:不是用氣驅(qū)動的機(jī)器。這里是復(fù)數(shù)概念,所以用名詞復(fù)數(shù)。

6句意:為了清理草地,谷歌租用了大量的山羊。所以填to clear。

7句意:每次它們逗留一個星期。At a time是固定用法,意思是每次。

8句意:這些山羊不用氣,不污染環(huán)境或是制造很多噪音。所以填or。

9后面有Than,所以這里用形容詞的比較級。

10V+ing作主語,謂語動詞用單數(shù)。

【題目】Robots make me nervous—especially the ones which seem to think for themselves.I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates,the founder of Microsoft,felt the same way.

Gates said in an interview with the social networking and news website Reddit:“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence.First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well.A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.”

Well,maybe I don’t have to worry about my computer and kitchen equipment yet.After I use them I can always pull the plug.But in the future,machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off.There’s a terrible thought!

Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil like some we’ve seen in scifi movies.What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient.That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University believes.He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just additional damage.Bostrom gives us an example:A machine which might have as its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you.Because it is,well,a machine,it would not take pity on you.

It’s a good thing that American writer Isaac Asimov thought about how far robots can go and left us his three rules of robotics.He states that a robot may not hurt a human being or allow the human being to come to harm.

I’m glad my machines at home are “dumb”.All my cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room.Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world!

1The author quoted Bill Gates’ words in Paragraph 2 in order to make the text .

A. betterknown B. more persuasive

C. betterorganized D. more interesting

2An intelligent paperclip machine would harm us because .

A. it is much cleverer than us

B. it would take over the world

C. it would see us just as material

D. it has the strong feeling of destroying us

3How does the author feel about Isaac Asimov’s rules of robotics?

A. Optimistic. B. Sympathetic.

C. Disappointed. D. Regretful.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇最佳答案。
Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.
One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.
They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma. The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players. Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The groups that rewarded the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded the least. And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.
The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse(虐待). Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children were aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children were aged five to nine. The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not.
The study says the IQs of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points. The more they are spanked, the slower their mental development.
(1)Which of the following is TRUE according to the second study?
A.Children's IQs have much to do with physical punishment.
B.The study is about violence and cooperation of children.
C.The children tested were divided into groups of four.
D.Children's mental development only relies on their IQs.
(2)What does the underlined word “spanked” refer to?
A.punished
B.blamed
C.tested
D.praised
(3)What might be the best title for the text?
A.The Best Way to Correct Misbehavior
B.Punishment Is the Best Way of Education
C.Cooperation Is the Most Successful Behavior
D.Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?
