13、
My son Joey was born with club feet (畸形足). The doctors told us he would be able to walk normally ---but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in surgery (手术) and braces (支架). By the time he was 8, you wouldn’t know he had a problem when you saw him walk. The children in our neighborhood ran around, as most children do, and Joey would play too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.
In seventh grade he decided to try out for the cross- country team. Every day he trained with the team. Although the whole team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know why. He continued to run 4 miles (6.4km) a day, every day even the day he had a 39.5 C fever. We never told him he couldn’t run 4 miles with a 39.5 C fever. So he didn’t know.
When the coach posted the names of the team members, Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade – the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he couldn’t do it... so he didn’t know. He just did it.第2页

14、 Robots are increasingly being developed to think and act like humans. But it is difficult for engineers to create humor (幽默) in machines. Computer scientists have hoped to help them understand humor. But they failed again and again. Why is it so difficult?
Kiki, a computer language expert (专家), studies humor at a university. “Most robots are powered by artificial intelligence (人工智能AI). But AI will never understand jokes like humans do.” He said, “The main problem is that AI system doesn’t have the sense of humor.”
Other experts agree that context (语境) is very important to understand humor, both for humans and robots. In one project, Tristan Miller, a computer scientist, studied more than 10, 000 puns. Puns are a kind of joke that uses a word with two meanings. For example, you could say, “Balloons (气球) do not like pop music.” The word “pop” can be a way of saying popular music, or “pop” can be the sound a balloon makes when it explodes (爆炸). “A robot might not understand the joke because it doesn’t know the meaning of the puns.” Miller said.
Although it’s difficult, some scientists say there are good reasons to keep trying to teach humor to robots. It can make machines understand humans better and serve humans better. And it can also help them to think more like humans.
But other scientists don’t think it’s a good idea to teach humor to robots. They may find humor, but they may use it in a wrong way. Maybe bad AI will start killing people because it thinks it is funny. Besides, it may make some people feel not safe. The comedians (喜剧演员) may lose their jobs when the robots can understand humor.
1．Kiki is an expert who studies ______ at a university.
A．humans B．humor C．AI system D．robots
2．What does the underlined word "pun" mean in Paragraph 3?
A．语言 B．笑话 C．双关语 D．同义词
3．From the passage, we know that ______.
A．AI system has the sense of humor

C．if robots understand humor, they can’t serve humans better
D．some scientist think it’s good to teach robots humor but others don’t

15、Chinese handwriting is an important part of our culture. It has a long history . “ Though the computer is widely used today, Chinese people still need to master the skill of writing with hands,” said a person who works in a government office．
With the development of the modern science ,the computer has become a very useful tool to help people to write. People use computers more often than before, so many people have forgotten how to write Chinese characters(字)．People often make a lot of mistakes in writing.
Now China has realized that it is important to help students and teachers to improve their writing . With the help of the information technology, teachers can write their questions on the board and students should answer them by writing, too.
Lots of surveys show that many college students' handwriting has become worse. Lots of college students do not know how to make up words or sentences in Chinese character in the right way.

However, if you ask them to spell out all the strokes of the character in the right order , they can't. But they can easily type（打字） it on a computer .
In the national language teaching course, we can solve this problem with the use of some technologies. Besides technology, there is a lot that we can do. For example, we may ask students to finish their homework by writing with hands instead of typing .

16、According to the studies from the UN, the increase of CO2in the air is responsible for 85% of the temperature increase. CO2goes into the air when we burn fossil fuels to run our industries, cars and so on. Luckily, half of the CO2that we produced is taken in by plants, trees, land and the oceans. The rest gases are still large to cause worry. At the same time, we are cutting down forests that take in carbon from the air.
To solve the problem is not an easy job. Developed nations such as the USA, Germany and Australia will have to promise to cut down greenhouse gases by as much as 25-40%. Countries such as India and China that have a large population and growing industry, have to leave a smaller greenhouse gas footprint. Everybody must be active and stick to it.
