10、（6分）Patients in the early stages of Alzheimers disease often struggle to remember recently learned information, meaning they forget things like important appointments or where they left their keys. But it seems that these memories are not lost. They are still filed away in the brain somewhere; they

11、just cant be easily accessed. Now, researchers at MIT have developed a means of getting back memories in mice suffering from Alzheimers. The method relies on a technique that uses light to control genetically modified neurons (轉(zhuǎn)基因神經(jīng)元). Currently it is too early to be used in human trials as it invol

12、ves inserting light emitting (發(fā)光) equipment into the subjects brains, but the same principles still apply, the researchers said. “The important point is that this is evidence of concept. That is, even if a memory seems to be gone, it is still there. Its a matter of how to get it back,” said senior r

13、esearcher Susumu Tonegawa. The team took two groups of mice, one genetically engineered to develop Alzheimers and one healthy. They then placed them into a room and gave them a mild electric shock. All of the mice showed fear when put back in an hour later. When placed in the room a third time sever

14、al days later, the Alzheimers mice acted normally. They had forgotten the shock. The researchers were then able to bring back the memory of the shock by activating (激活) the cells in which the memories were stored. Even when the mice were put into an unfamiliar room, they showed fear when the cells a

15、ssociated with the shock were activated. “Short-term memory seems to be normal, on the order of hours. But for long-term memory, these early-Alzheimers mice seem to be damaged,” said lead researcher Dheeraj Roy. “Directly activating the cells that we believe are holding the memory helps them get it

16、back. This suggests that it is indeed an access problem to the information, not that theyre unable to learn or store this memory.”1、What can we learn about the researchers at MIT?AThey are the pioneers of brain research.BThey have used the method in human trials.CThey can cure Alzheimers using the n

17、ew method.DThey can get back memories in mice with Alzheimers.2、Why did the Alzheimers mice behave normally a third time?AThey failed to remember the electric shock.BThey were accustomed to the situation.CThey managed to overcome the fear.DThey activated the association.3、For long-term memory, the e

However, he does not speak French. Richards impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence worksreal AI

20、. 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 tasksprovided the task is in one field with a lot of datait i

21、s 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, li

22、ke scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobsexecutives, 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 wont employ a

23、s 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 sympathywhich AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them t

24、hey 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

Sam and I developed a very special bond over the next years.At one point, my husband and I decided to mov

28、e to a new home in New Jersey. Our neighbor, whose cat had recently had kittens, asked if we would like one. We were a little apprehensive about Sams jealousy and how he would handle his turf（地盤）being invaded, but we decided to risk it.We picked a little, gray, playful ball of Fur. She raced around

29、chasing imaginary mice and squirrels and jumped from table to chair in the blink of an eye, so we named her Lightning.At first, Sam and Lightning were very cautious with each other and kept their distance. But slowly, Lightning started following Sam up the stairs, down the stairs, into the kitchen.

30、Later, when they slept, it was always together; when they ate, it was always next to each other. When I took either one out, the other was always waiting by the door when we returned. That was the way it was for years.Then, without any warning, Sam was diagnosed as having a weak heart. I had no othe

31、r choice but to have him put down. The pain was nothing compared with what I experienced when I had to walk into our house alone. This time, there was no Sam for Lightning to greet and no way to explain why she would never see her friend again.In the following days, Lightning seemed heart-broken. I

32、could see the disappointment in her eyes whenever anyone opened the front door, or the hope whenever she heard a dog bark.One day as I walked into our living room, I happened to see Lightning was lying next to the sculptured replica（復(fù)制品）of Sam that we had bought a few years ago, one arm wrapped arou

33、nd the statues neck, contentedly sleeping with her best friend.1、What does the underlined word “apprehensive” in paragraph 2 mean?AShocked.BCurious.CWorried.DEager.2、How did Sam get along with Lightning at first?ALightning followed Sam everywhere it went.BThey fought with each other fiercely.CThey k

34、ept a certain distance from each other.DSam was unfriendly to Lightning.3、What can we infer from the text?ALightning knew Sam had died.BSam means a lot to Lightning.CWe took Lightning home to accompany Sam.DSam came back to stay with Lightning again.4、What can be the best title of the text?AThe Frie

They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a shelter from the often severe e

36、nvironment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emit

37、s in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal and concrete (混凝土) absorb much more of the suns heat and release it much more quickly than trees and grass. Because city landscapes co

38、ntain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect.Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of p

39、arks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are simple container gardens that anyone can cre

40、ate with the investment (投資) of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban parks and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which

41、 can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help control the heat that materials like brick and concrete release so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetables and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city settlers, making their diets healthier. Rooft

42、op gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy but also a smart environmental investment.1、The underlined word “emits” in the second paragraph probably means _.Atakes up Bgives outCcarries away Dbreathes in2、Which of the following contributes to the Urban Heat Island Effect?AMore rooftop garde

43、ns. BMore trees and grass.CMore parking lots. DMore building materials.3、When it comes to rooftop gardens, what can be inferred from the passage?AThey make people much happier.BThey provide more benefits from urban parks.CThey help to save money and keep a healthy diet.DThey have become very popular
