Every day when Glen Oliver orders his morning coffee at the drive-through window

of a local cafe, he insists on paying for the order of the person behind him. He

also asks the restaurant workers to tell the customer to have a great day, in case

they’re not already having one.

Oliver

has

never

made

a

big

deal

out

of

his

own

generous

actions

until

a

letter

was

published by a news website in November. He found out that he had not just bought

someone his breakfast

—

he had saved a life.

According to the website, someone had written a letter stating that on July 18th,

he was planning on committing suicide. The writer said that while he was at the

drive-through window, he was planning on

going

home, writing a note and ending

his

life. When he went to pay for his coffee and muffin, however, the cashier told him

D

．

Both

take

in

endangered

B

．

Both

encourage

animal

that the man in the SUV in front of him had picked up the tab and told him to have

a great day.

“I wondered why someone would buy coffee for a stranger for no reason,” said the

writer. “Why me Why today If I were a religious man, I would take this as a sign.

This random act of kindness was directed a

t me on this day for a purpose.”

When

the

writer

arrived

home,

he

couldn’t

hold

back

his

tears

and

started

to

think

about

the

simple

good

deed

that

had

affected

him

so

deeply.

“I

decided

at

that

moment

to

change

my

plans

for

the

day

and

do

something

nice

for

someone.

I

ended

up

helping

a neighbor take groceries out of her car and into the house.”

The writer says that in the months following that fateful event, he does at least

one kind thing for others every day. “To the nice man in the SUV, thank you from

the bottom of my heart. Please know your kind gesture has truly saved a life,” he

said. “On July 18, 2017, I had the greatest day.”

Artificial

intelligence(AI)has

been

undergoing

great

progress

in

the

last

decade

．

An

AI

program

can

imitate

human

functions

such

as

problem

solving

and

learning

．

While

AI offers much promise for the development of smarter and more useful machines

，

it

also

fills

many

with

fear

of

a

dull

future

where

millions

are

thrown

out

of

work

，

replaced by robots and smart machines

．

It’s

perhaps

possible

that

humans

will

one

day

be

reduced

to

s

ervants

of

our

machine

overlords

，

but

a

calm

assessment

predicts

a

mixed

effect

of

AI

on

the

job

market

．

History teaches us that machines do replace humans

，

but somehow there are

still plenty of jobs available today

．

The

reason

is

that

automation

can

take

the

place

of

labor

on

certain

jobs

，

but

also

adds

labor

for

other

jobs

that

are

not

easily

automated

，

making

labor

more

productive

and actually increasing the demand for workers

．

Jobs

composed

of

repetitive

tasks

are

the

ones

most

defenseless

to

automation

．

Examples including automated weaving machi nes

，

ATMs

，

< br>production-line

welders(

焊接工

)and

phone

answering

systems

．

It

might

seem

that

these

advances

would

simply throw people out of work

．

But

look

at

the

example

of

the

weaving

machines

．

They

increased

productivity

50-fold

and dropped the price of cloth by 98 percent

．

The demand for cloth exploded as the

price fell

，

thus creating more weaver jobs

．

In the years between 1830 and 1900

，

the

number

of

weaver

jobs

increased

4-fold

despite

au tomation

．

Automation

increased

demand

for

weavers

，

but

also

changed

the

nature

of

the

weaver’s

job．

A

similar

process

happened

with

ATMs

，which

didn’t

remove

the

need

for

human

tellers，

whose

numbers

actually have risen since ATMs were introduced in the 1970s.

The intelligent response is for the public and private sectors to create worker

training programs to teach new skills that will be required despite the spread of

automation

．

This will require all investment in on-the-job training and lifelong

learning

．

8

．

What can we know about AI from Paragraph 1

A

．

It has a history of no more than 10 years

．

B

．

It leaves many people worrying about job loss

．

C

．

It is already too advanced to be further improved

．

D

．

It is unable to learn or solve problems like humans

．

9

．

What does the author say about automation in Paragraph 2

A

．

It will surely reduce job chances for humans

．

B

．

It will certainly help improve productivity

．

C

．

It wi11 enable machines to enslave humans

．

D

．

It will eventually take the place of all human labor

．

10

．What is the author’s main purpose of listin

g the examples in Paragraph 3

A

．

To tell us how to expand the job market to cut costs

．

B

．

To explain why certain jobs suffer greatly from automation

．

C

．

To show what is the best way to have productivity improved

．

D

．To prove automation doesn’t necessarily make

humans jobless

．

11

．

Which of the following can be the best title for the passage

A

．

How AI will develop in the future

B

．

How AI will transform the job market

C

．

How man will benefit from automation

D

．

How man will survive in the age of automation

D

There is a change of attitude toward the pink and blue divide in toys. Target, the

second-largest

discount

retailer

(

折扣零售店

)

in

the

US,

announced

in

2015

that

it

would get rid of signs labeling toys for boys or for girls. A UK campaign called

Let

Toys

Be

Toys

seeks

to

get

retailers

to

stop

dividing

toys

and

books

for

one

gender

(

性别

) only.

Researchers have worried about the effect of having toys that were so

segregated

(

分开的

)

by

gender

for

some

time,

says

Lisa

Dinella,

associate

professor

at Monmouth University.

Clearly

divided

pink

and

blue

toys

—

with

dolls

and

tea

sets

on

one

side

and trucks and building blocks on the other

—

are actually a pretty recent

development.

As

recently

as

the

1970s,

toys

sold

in

the

US

were

not

always

marketed

with clear gender distinctions. By the 1980s and 1990s, however, toys started to

become

more

gender

segregated,

though

it

was

still

not

so

sharply

divided

as

today,

says Elizabeth Sweet, a lecturer in sociology at the University of California,

Davis.

While it

may

seem like a small

issue, toys help children to

develop

new

skills, says Dinella. Dolls and pretend kitchens are good at teaching kids early

language

skills.

Building

blocks

like

Lego

and

puzzles

teach

skills

related

to

space,

which help set the groundwork fo

r learning math. “Both genders lose out if we put

kids on one track and they can't explore,” says Dinella.

Some parents try to introduce

other

types of toys and

get away from

the

strictly

pink

and

blue

divide.

But

it's

difficult

for

parents

to

ignore

the

marketing

and

get

their

kids

toys

or

costumes

meant

for

the

other

gender,

says

Dinella.

While

some parents try to broaden the toys their children are exposed to, there is often

a

social

cost

to

the

child

for

crossing

gender

boundaries.

“So

it

is

hard

for

parents

to throw out the rules,” she says.

Researchers

hope

that

one

day,

toys

will

stop

being

broken

up

by

gender

and

will

instead

be

categorized

(

分类

)

by

type,

like

puzzle

toys,

dolls

or

children's

bikes. Toy choices, Sweet says, should be based on kids' personal interests, and

not on their gender.

12. What trend is described in the first paragraph

A. Offering different toys to boys and girls. B. Giving kids more time to play

with toys.

C.

Making

more

colorful

toys

for

kids. D.

Ending

the

gender

divide

in

toys.

13. How will the pink-and-blue toy divide affect kids according to Dinella

A. Helping them develop in a quite normal way.

B. Making them better communicate with others.

C. Urging them to master more knowledge and skills.

D. Causing them to miss many opportunities to learn.

14. What is hard for the parents mentioned by Dinella

A. Buying kids toys at

relatively low prices.

B. Buying kids toys aimed at

the

other gender.

C. Buying kids new types of toys.

D. Buying kids high-quality toys.

15. What might be Sweet's attitude to Target's decision

A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Curious.
