But then I thought about the fact
that
he's 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't
give up an opportunity to see him. I called
him and told him I had decided to go to
work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be

possible to avoid that eventuality. And
even though it takes an extra minute to

“extra

说
“if

“if

作为线索贯穿了整篇文章，且第一段也提到了
the
saddest

，其他选项比较笼统，不能涵盖本文内容。所以这篇文章最好的题目是
“
防止出现
if

，故选
B
。

In 2015, a man named
Nigel Richards memorized 386, 000 words in the
entire
French Scrabble
Dictionary
in just nine
weeks. However, he does not speak French.
Richards' impressive feat is a
useful
example to show how artificial intelligence
works
—
real AI. Both of
Richard and AI take in
massive amounts
of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and
superman accuracy in a
certain
field.
The potential
applications for AI are extremely exciting.
Because AI can outperform humans at
routine
tasks
—
provided
the
task
is
in
one
field
with
a
lot
of
data
—
it
is
technically
capable
of
replacing hundreds of millions of white
and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or
so.
But not every job
will be replaced by AI. In fact
four
types of jobs are not at risk at all. First,
there are creative jobs. AI needs to be
given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like
scientists,
novelists and artists can.
Second, the complex, strategic
jobs
—
executives, diplomats,
economists
—
go
well
beyond
the
AI
limitation
of
single-field
and
Big
Data.
Then
there
are
the
as-yet-
unknown jobs that
will be created by AI.
Are you worried that these three types of jobs
won't employ as many people as AI will replace?
Not
to
worry,
as
the
fourth
type
is
much
larger:
jobs
where
emotions
are
needed,
such
as
teachers,
nannies
and
doctors.
These
jobs
require
compassion,
trust
and
sympathy
—
which
AI
does not have. And even
if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot
telling them they have
cancer, or a
robot to babysit their children.
So there will still be jobs in the
age of AI. The key then must be retraining the
workforce so
people
can
do
them.
This
must
be
the
responsibility
not
just
of
the
government,
which
can
provide funds, but also
of corporations and those who benefit
most.
（

What is the main purpose of
paragraph 1?
A.

B.

C.

memory.

go beyond AI in memory.

Which of the following

Give yourself a test.
Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of
wildflowers can be
seen from your front
door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could
be, you'll have no trouble
answering
these questions.
Most of
us observed much more as children than we do as
adults. A child's day is filled with
fascination, newness and wonder.
Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But
distinctions that
were sharp to us as
children become unclear; we are
numb(
麻木的
) to new
stimulation(
刺激
),
new
ideas.
Relearning
the
art
of
seeing
the
world
around
us
is
quite
simple,
although
it
takes
practice
and requires breaking some bad habits.
The
first
step
in
awakening
senses
is
to
stop
predicting
what
we
are
going
to
see
and
feel
before
it
occurs.
This
blocks
awareness.
One
chilly
night
when
I
was
hiking
in
the
Rocky
Mountains with some
students, I mentioned that we were going to cross
a mountain stream. The
students
began
complaining
about
how
cold
it
would
be.
We
reached
the
stream,
and
they
unwillingly walked ahead. They were
almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot
spring.
Later they all admitted they'd
felt cold water at first.
Another block to awareness is the
obsession(
痴迷
) many of us
have with naming things. I saw
bird
watchers
who
spotted
a
bird,
immediately
looked
it
up
in
field
guides,
and
said,
a
crowned
kinglet
what it was doing.
The
pressures
of
and

further
blocks

I
encountered many hikers who were headed
to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to
get
there
before
dark.
It

occurred
to
them
to
wander

bit,
to
take

moment
to

what's around them. I

bent on
their destinations.
Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and
