26、   Researchers at CU Boulder have developed a wearable device that changes the human body into a biological battery. The device, described in the journal Science Advances, is stretchy enough that you can wear it like a ring, a sport band or any other thing that touches your skin. It also taps into a person’s natural heat—employing thermoelectric generators to convert the body’s internal temperature into electricity. “In the future, we want to be able to power your wearable electronics without having to include a battery,” said Jianliang Xiao,author of the new paper and an associate professor at CU Boulder.

The concept may sound like something out of The Matrix film series, in which a race of robots have enslaved humans to harvest their precious organic energy. Xiao and his colleagues aren’t that ambitious: Their devices can generate about 1 volt of energy for every square centimeter of skin space—less voltage per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers.

Scientists have previously experimented with similar wearable devices, but Xiao’s is stretchy, can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable—making it a cleaner alternative to traditional electronics. “Whenever you use a battery, you’re depleting that battery and will, eventually, need to replace it,” Xiao said. “The nice thing about our device is that you can wear it, and it provides you with constant power.”

Just pretend that you’re out for a jog. As you exercise, your body heats up, and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you. Xiao’s device captures that flow of energy instead of letting it go to waste. “The thermoelectric generators are in close contact with the human body, and they can use the heat that would normally be sent into the environment,” Xiao said.

Xiao and his colleagues calculated, for example, that a person taking a brisk walk could use a device the size of a typical sports wristband to generate about 5 volts of electricity—which is more than what many watch batteries can make.

【1】What does Xiao expect of his device at present?

A．It will be environment-friendly.

B．It will be made smaller and cheaper.

C．It will change natural power into electricity.

D．It will supply constant power to wearable devices.

【2】What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?

A．Fiction films are sometimes ridiculous.

B．Robots can be a threat to humankind.

C．Xiao’s device has practical value.

D．Organic energy will be badly needed by mankind.

【3】What does the underlined word “depleting” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Purchasing.

B．Exchanging.

C．Consuming.

D．Connecting.

【4】What do we know about Xiao’s device from the text?

A．Its shape can be changed as wished.

B．It operates with very little power.

C．It benefits people’s health in a way.

D．It’s based on traditional electronics.

27、Art in 21th Century Life

The word “art” usually brings to mind images of white-walled galleries, abstract paintings costing millions of dollars, far removed from our everyday experience. 【1】

The Internet has changed the idea that art appreciation is only for the noble. 【2】 You can even visit several museums around the world using virtual reality headsets, without leaving your home.

【3】 Art has always been a vehicle for self-expression, but social media have made it much easier to share amateur work with the whole world. Where an amateur artist or musician might one have shared their work with a circle of friends and family, they can now sell their work to anyone in the world.

“A picture is worth a thousand words” is the motto of data visualization enthusiasts. The amount of information available today can be overwhelming, so some statisticians (数据分析师) made it their mission to present this mass of data using infographics that are easy for the public to understand. 【4】 Of course, graphs can be abused to mislead the audience, so we need to take care to interpret them the right way.

Another way that art facilitates education is by helping us to conceptualize things that are invisible to the naked eye. 【5】 Likewise, the mind-bending concepts in physics such as black holes can be better understood with the help of illustrators who have backgrounds in both art and science.

A．Many platforms of social media help teaching the public art.

B．Yet art is indeed closer than many would believe it to be nowadays.

C．As most of our environment is man-made, everything in it contains art.

D．Netizens are not only consumers of art but creators and participants, too.

E．Biology students would find videos such as “The inner Life of the Cell” helpful.

F．They present information in visually appealing ways instead of using dry numbers.

G．It has enabled more people than ever to have access to visual art and music of all types.

28、In 2016, I suffered from Seasonal Affective Disorder(SAD) a form of depression(抑郁症) that is found to make people feel low in the UK between September and April. During that cold and wet period, I got comfort in books.

Books have been used by many to reduce depression. I lose myself into them as thirstily as usually get my morning coffee. Each Christmas, I have a habit of returning to the old favorite books that make up for my emptiness, such as Jane Eyre. Sometimes, to escape from the cold, I run back to the heat that I am used to, so I will read a lot of books set in Africa.

It became important for me to find a way to escape my sadness in the world of books. And isn’t that what art and literature is for? According to JJ Bola, the author of No Place to Call Home, “The world can get you so down that you think you’re the only person going through what you’re going through. But then you read and you realize that you are not alone that if someone else has gone through it and survived, then maybe you can, too.” It is this survival that the reader looks for, that is, the understanding that the winter is not so long after all.

【1】What was the possible cause for the author’s illness?

A．His personality.

B．His poor health.

C．Sleeplessness.

D．Cold and wet seasons.

【2】The author likes reading old favorite books because they help him________.

A．kill time

B．keep warm

C．enjoy Christmas time

D．drive away emptiness

【3】Which book may the author probably read when he feels cold?

A．Jane Eyre.

B．Out of Africa.

C．Alice in Wonderland.

D．No Place to Call Home.

A．finds a way to escape his sadness

B．gets along better with others

C．leans more about other cultures

D．becomes more interested in literature

【5】What is the best title for the passage?

A．Reading Reduces Depression

B．Reading Keeps You Warm

C．How to Escape Loneliness

D．How to Survive Winters

29、To make artificial intelligence that can reason and apply knowledge flexibly, many researchers are focused on fresh ideas from neuroscience (神经科学). Should they be looking to psychology too? Researchers are working to develop new AI systems that can figure out simple abstract relations between objects and the reason behind them as effortlessly as a human brain.

Artificial intelligence has come a long way. In recent years, smart machines inspired by the human brain have shown superhuman abilities in games like chess and Go, proved remarkably expert at imitating some of our language skills. But with various other aspects of what we might reasonably call human intelligence — reasoning, understanding causality (因果关系), applying knowledge flexibly, to name a few — AIs still struggle. They are also inefficient learners, requiring large amounts of data where humans need only a few examples.

Some researchers think all we need to bridge the gap is ever larger AIs, while others want to turn back to nature’s blueprint. One path is to double down on efforts to copy the brain, better replicating (复制) the intricacies of real brain cells and the ways their activity is arranged. But the brain is the most complex object in the known universe and it is far from clear how much of its complexity we need to replicate to reproduce its capabilities.

That’s why some believe more abstract ideas about how intelligence works can provide shortcuts. Their claim is that to really accelerate the progress of AI towards something that we can say thinks like a human, we need to imitate not the brain — but the mind. “In some sense, they’re just different ways of looking at the same thing, but sometimes it’s profitable to do that,” says Gary Marcus at New York University and start-up Robust AI. “You don’t want a replica, what you want is to learn the principles that allow the brain to be as effective as it is.”

【1】What do we know about the current AI?

A．They are good at reasoning.

B．They have amazing learning ability.

C．They can't understand complex information.

D．They lack some elements of real intelligence.

【2】What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A．People fail to understand the complexity of the brain.

B．Scientists need to focus on the structure of the brain.

C．The attempt to copy the brain might be unrealistic.

D．Scientists are doubtful about the future of AI.

【3】What does Gary Marcus suggest researchers do to advance AI?

A．Make AI more creative.

B．Teach more principles to AI.

C．Study how intelligence works.

D．Update their knowledge constantly.

【4】What is a suitable title for the text?

A．Are the Smart Machines Intelligent Enough?

B．Make Machine Minds That Really Think Like Us

C．What to Expect with the Future of AI Technology?

D．The Future of AI? Psychology May Provide Fresh Ideas
