The

ideal

companion

machine

would

not

only

look,

feel,

and

sound

friendly

but

would

also

be

programmed

to

behave

in

an

agreeable

manner.

Those

(36)

that

make

interaction

with other people enjoyable would be simulated as closely as possible, and the

machine would appear to (37)stimulating and easygoing. Its informal conversation

style

would

make

interaction

comfortable,

and

yet

the

machine

would

remain

slightly

(38) and therefore interesting. In its first (39) it might be somewhat honest and

unsmiling

that

it

came

to

know

the

user

it

would

progress

to

a

mere

(40)and

intimate

style. The machine would not be a passive (41) but would add its own suggestions,

information,

and

opinions;

it

would

sometimes

take

the

developing

or

changing

the topic and would have a (43)of its own.

The

machine

would

convey

presence.

use

of

personal

names

Such

are

wholly

into

the

software

are not made

in a day, and the computer would be more acceptable

as a friend

At an appropriate time I might also express the kind of affection that simulates

attachment and intimacy.

Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)

Section A

Direction:

In

this

section,

there

is

a

short

passage

with

5

questions

or

incomplete

stamens. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the

statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answer on Answer Sheet

2.

Question 47 to 51 are based on the following passage

Highly proficient musicianship is hard won. Although it

’

s often assumed musical

ability us inherited, there

’

s abundant evidence that this isn

’

t the case. While

it seems that at birth virtually everyone has perfect pitch, the reasons that one

child is better than another are motivation and practice.

Highly musical children were sung to more as infants and more encouraged to join

in

song

games

as

kids

than

less

musical

ones,

long

before

any

musical

ability

could

have

been

evident.

Studies

of

classical

musicians

prove

that

the

best

ones

practiced

considerably

more

from

childhood

onwards

than

ordinary

orchestral

players,

and

this

is because their parents were at them to put in the hours from a very young age.

The same was true of children selected for entry to specialist music schools,

compared

with

those

who

were

rejected.

The

chosen

children

had

parents

who

had

very

actively supervised music lessons and daily practice from young ages, giving up

substantial periods of leisure time to take the children to lessons and concerts.

The singer Michael Jackson

’

s story, although unusually brutal and extreme, is

illumination when considering musical prodigy(

天才

). Accounts suggest that he was

subjected to cruel beatings and emotional torture ,and that he was

humiliated

(

羞

辱

) constantly by his

father, What sets Jackson

’

s family apart

is that his father

used his reign of terror to train his children as musicians and dancers.

On

top

of

his

extra

ability

Michael

also

had

more

drive.

This

may

have

been

the

result

of

being

the

closest

of

his

brothers

and

sisters

to

his

mother.

“

He

seemed

different

to me from the other children

—

special,

”

Micha el

’

s mother said of him. She may

not

have

realized

that

treating

her

son

as

special

may

have

been

part

of

the

reason

be became like that.

All in all, if you want to bring up a Mozart or Bach, the key factor is how hard

you

are

prepared

to

crack

the

whip.

Thankfully,

most

of

us

will

probably

settle

for

a

bit

of

fun

on

the

recorder

and

some

ill-executed

pieces

of

music- on

the

piano

from

our children.
