Many people think artificial intelligence(AI) is a thing from the future. But in fact, AI is already here and many of us benefit from it every day without even knowing it. Probably the best example of this would be Siri, a virtual(虚拟的) assistant created by Apple in 2011. It won over Apple fans with its ability to recognize a user’s voice and do certain things for the user. For example, you can tell Siri “call mom” and the software will dial(拨号) your mom’s phone number. Another example of virtual assistant is Alexa, created by Amazon. It can be used to order food, schedule meetings, and even control the lights in your room.
But how will we use AI in our daily lives in the future The possibilities are endless. Perhaps the most exciting possibility is driverless cars. The first automated car was developed in 1977. It was able to track street markers using two cameras and a computer. Since then, dozens of companies have tried to develop their own cars, including Tesla, Google and Baidu. Developments like these are a sign that AI will become increasingly important in the future.
AI is set to benefit humans in many ways. And yet, like any other technology, AI will also bring risks. AI hackers(黑客) can get your information easily, such as your QQ number, phone number and even your bank card password. People are also losing jobs to AI. AI workers never get tired. While you relax, they keep working. Many companies want to hire AI instead of humans. AI may take over about 47% of jobs in the US, scientists say. Smart machines can easily become bank clerk, translators and dishwashers.
21. What do we know about Siri
A. It came out in 2001.
B. It can recognize a user’s voice.
C. It is a human assistant.
22. What can Alexa NOT do
A. It can order food. B. It can schedule meetings. C. It can track street markers.
23. The following companies are developing driverless cars EXCEPT ______.
A. Apple. B. Baidu. C. Google.
24. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. How coinpanics develop AI
B. How AI benefits people’s lives.
C. What risks AI brings to people.
25. What is the writer’s opinion about AI
A. AI brings Innnans more wonics than benefits.
B. AI will become more and more important.
C. AI will take over most of the humans’ jobs.

Most American families are smaller than the families in other countries. Most American families have one or two parents and one or two children each. Children in the USA will leave their parents’ home when they grow up. They usually live far from their parents because they want to find good jobs. They often write to their parents or telephone them. And they often go to visit their parents on holidays.
Parents usually let their children choose their own jobs. Americans think it is important for young people to decide on their lives by themselves. Children are asked to do some work around their house. And in many families, children are paid for doing some housework so that they can learn how to make money for their own use.

One possible version:
How to Communicate with Our Parents
Communication with parents is one of the first things we have done since we were born. As we grow older, we'll find it's not easy to communicate with our parents openly and effectively. So what should we do when communicating with them Here are some my suggestions.
Firstly, we can make a list of things our parents and we disagree about most. Try to find out the reasons why we disagree with each other. Accept each other’s ideas little by little. If we still have disagreements, we’d better not get too angry. Secondly, we should talk with them more! Sharing ideas can make us closer. Besides, we should also learn how to really listen. Listening is a skill that must be learned and practiced. Finally, be sure to be polite.We are a family in which everyone is loved and cared for.
All in all, if you can often communicate with your parents, I believe that your relationship will become better and better.
