Bus

you

I

mind
walking,

It’s

having
to
change.

【原文】W:
In
today’s
program
we
have
the
famous
actor,
Peter
Jameson,
who
is
known
above
all
for
his
classical
roles
on
stage,
particularly
in
Shakespeare
plays.
Peter,
was
it
your
choice
to
appear
so
often
in
this
type
of
play?
M:
Well,
that’s
an
interesting
question.
Actually,
I’ve
always
seen
myself
as
an
actor,
a
professional
actor
doing
whatever
comes
along,
rather
than
classical
roles,
Shakespeare
and
so
on,
although
of
course
I
do
find
those
wonderful.
W:
I
remember
seeing
you
playing
many
big
parts.
You
must
have
had
lots
of
words
to
remember.
How
can
you
manage
that?
M:
It
was
a
gift
originally.
I’ve
always
had
a
sort
of
photographic
memory,
right
from
my
earliest
childhood.
My
subject
at
university
was
history
actually,
for
which
a
memory
is
basic.
W:
Some
of
your
theater
performances
have
been
recorded
and
shown
on
TV.
Have
you
ever
watched
them?
M:
I’ve
always
avoided
watching
myself
anyway.
Though
I’m
satisfied
with
my
performance
on
stage,
I
still
feel
foolish
to
see
myself
on
TV.
It
makes
me
feel
strange
and
embarrassed.
W:
OK,
thank
you
very
much,
Peter.

【原文】W:
I
never
thought
I’d
be
the
type
to
go
on
a
cookery
course!
My
mum
and
my
sister
always
used
to
laugh
at
me,
because
though
I
love
eating,
I
couldn’t
make
anything
myself.
Then
one
day
my
cousin
decided
she
wanted
to
have
cooking
classes.
She
didn’t
want
to
do
them
on
her
own,
though.
I
agreed
to
go
along.
You
could
do
one-day,
three-day
or
one-week
courses.
We
thought
a
week
should
be
enough
to
get
us
started,
so
we
chose
that
during
the
summer
holidays.
When
we
got
there
on
the
first
morning,
loads
of
people
had
already
arrived.
I
knew
it
was
a
popular
course,
with
lots
of
teenagers
like
me
there.
What
I
hadn’t
expected
was
that
there’d
be
so
many
teachers
—
you
got
plenty
of
help
that
way
and
I
certainly
needed
it.
We
learnt
how
to
make
a
cake
in
the
first
class.
And
that
was
a
really
good
way
to
get
started.
Another
thing
we
did
was
go
out
and
visit
places
—
though
we
didn’t
go
to
any
restaurants.
But
there
were
a
few
markets
nearby.
And
we
visited
one
of
the
best
ones.
We
passed
a
couple
of
supermarkets
on
the
way,
but
we
didn’t
go
in.

Though
not
as
mainstream
as
devices
like
smartphones
and
fitness
trackers,
more
companies
are
now
experimenting
with
the
concept
of
connected
garments.
Among
the
pioneers
is
London-based
CuteCircuit,
which
has
been
creating
fashionable
smart
clothing
since
2004.
The
company’s
latest
creation
is
the
“Sound
Shirt,”
which
allows
deaf
people
to
“feel”
live
music
by
transforming
the
tunes
into
touch
feelings
in
real
time.
The
fashionable
jacket
achieves
the
incredible
function
using
software
that
changes
the
music
into
data
and
wirelessly
sends
it
to
the
16-micro
actuators(促动器)placed
inside
the
cloth.
The
devices
vibrate(振动)in
sync(同步)to
the
intensity(强度)of
the
music
being
played,
allowing
the
wearer
to
feel
each
instrument
individually.
For
example,
violin
can
be
felt
on
the
arms,
while
the
deeper,
heavier
bass
notes
can
be
felt
close
to
the
stomach.
The
series
of
touch-like
feelings
across
the
wearer’s
body
enables
them
to
feel
the
entire
composition,
resulting
in
a
fully
amazing
musical
experience.
To
ensure
the
shirt
is
comfortable,
the
designers
chose
to
leave
out
wires
and
instead
wove
conductive(可传导的)material
into
the
garment’s
cloth.
Francesca
Rosella,
co-founder
and
chief
creative
officer
of
CuteCircuit,
explains,
“There
are
no
wires
inside,
so
we’re
only
using
smart
material—we
have
a
combination
of
microelectronics
and
very
thin,
flexible
and
conductive
material.
All
these
little
electronic
motors
are
connected
with
these
conductive
material
so
that
the
garment
is
soft
and
stretchable.”
CuteCircuit,
which
has
been
testing
the
Sound
Shirt
for
three
years,
expects
to
make
it
available
to
the
general
public
shortly.
Priced
at
$3,673,
the
smart
jacket
will
not
be
cheap.
However,
twin
sisters
Hermon
and
Heroda
Berhane,
who
lost
their
hearing
at
a

CuteCircuit的声音衬衫让聋哑人能够感受到音乐”。故选D。
C
Artificial
Intelligence
(AI)
advice
is
as
influential
as
humans',
but
positive
crowd
views
still
overpower.
In
a
study,
researchers
found
that
machines
that
make
recommendations-or
AI
experts-were
as
influential
as
human
experts
when
the
AI
experts
recommended
which
photo
users
should
add
to
their
online
business
profiles.
However,
both
AI
and
human
experts
failed
to
budge
them
if
their
feedback
was
negative
and
went
against
popular
views
among
other
users,
said
S.
Shyam
Sundar,
a
professor
of
Media
Effects.
Because
people
are
increasingly
using
social
media
to
look
for
feedback,
studies
suggest
that
expert
opinions
and
the
bandwagon
effect
(从众效应)
may
be
important
factors
in
influencing
decisions.
According
to
Jinping
Wang,
a
doctoral
candidate
in
mass
communication
and
first
author
of
the
study.
"Nowadays,
we
often
turn
to
online
platforms
for
opinions
from
other
people-like
our
peers
and
experts-before
making
a
decision,"
said
Wang.
AI
experts
are
often
less
expensive
than
human
experts
and
they
can
also
work
24
hours
a
day,
which,
Wang
suggests,
might
make
them
appealing
to
online
businesses.
The
researchers
also
found
that
the
AI's
group
status
(群体地位)
-in
this
case,
national
origin
was
pointed
out-did
not
seem
to
affect
a
person's
acceptance
of
its
recommendation.
Among
human
experts,
however,
an
expert
from
a
similar
national
origin
who
offered
a
negative
opinion
of
a
photograph
tended
to
be
more
influential
than
a
human
expert
from
an
unknown
country
who
offered
a
similar
negative
rating
of
a
photograph.
While
findings
that
suggest
group
status
may
not
affect
whether
a
person
values
the
view
of
AI
experts
sound
like
good
news,
Sundar
suggests
that
the
same
cultural
biases
(偏见)
might
still
be
at
work
in
AI
experts
for
they
could
be
hidden
in
the
programming
and
training
data.
"It
can
be
both
good-and
bad-because
it
all
depends
on
what
you
feed
AI,
"
said
Sundar.
"While
it
is
good
to
believe
in
AI's
ability
to
transcend
(超越)
cultural
biases,
we
have
to
keep
in
mind
that
if
you
train
the
AI
on
pictures
from
one
culture,
they
could
give
misleading
recommendations
on
pictures
meant
for
use
in
other
cultural
contexts."

C
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。在进行推荐建议时,AI专家和人类专家的影响力一样有效。AI专家由于便捷性、低成本受到广泛欢迎,但我们不应该忘记其中隐藏的文化偏见,这取决于人类如何灌输和训练。

D
The
lights
go
down,
music
plays,
and
a
young
woman
on
a
bike
at
the
front
of
the
class
encourages
students
to
spin
faster
and
harder.
When
the
lights
go
back
on,
the
students
on
the
bikes
pull
out
their
notebooks,
and
it’s
clear
that
this
is
not
SoulCycle.
Instead,
it’s
a
first-of-its-kind
business
school
course
at
Fordham
University
that
is
taught
on
spin
bikes
in
a
university.
“It’s
the
first
class
that
I
mention
to
anybody
when
anybody
asks
me
what
classes
I’m
taking,”
said
Amanda
Vopat,
22,
a
business
administration
major.
“I
think
people
are
really
excited
about
it.”
The
75-minute,
twice-weekly
course
is
the
brainchild
of
Julita
Haber,
a
business
school
professor
at
Fordham.
“I
have
been
introducing
movement
and
fitness
in
my
classes
for
the
past
seven
years,”
she
said.
“I
found
the
spin
class
would
really
allow
students
to
exercise
while
a
professor
lectures
at
the
same
time.”
The
course
the
students
are
taking
while
cycling
is
no
joke.
Managing
Professional
Relationships
is
an
upper-level
business
school
course
taken
primarily
by
juniors
and
seniors.
The
students
are
fully
instrumental
in
each
class,
selecting
the
music,
leading
stretches
before
and
after
class
and
leading
the
intervals
during
the
class.
Haber
stops
her
lecture
every
20
minutes
throughout
the
class.
While
one
student
turns
off
the
lights,
another
student
turns
up
the
music
and
a
third
student
goes
to
a
bike
in
the
front
of
the
class
to
lead
their
classmates
in
high-intensity
interval
that
lasts
two
to
three
minutes,
just
enough
to
re-energize
the
students.
“It’s
a
fantastic
way
of
engaging
students
and
as
a
professor,
as
a
teacher,
that’s
really
gratifying,”
she
said.
“They
don’t
have
their
smartphones,
and
they
don’t
have
laptops
so
they
are
physically
engaged
and
also
mentally
engaged
in
what
is
being
said.”
The
course
is
the
first
of
its
kind
at
Fordham,
and
Haber
believes
it
is
also
a
first
across
the
United
States.
She
has
authored
research
on
the
unique
classroom
approach,
which
she
calls
fitness
integrated
learning.
Donna
Rapaccioli,
the
head
of
Fordham’s
Gabelli
School
of
Business,
described
how
students
were
“energized”
by
the

and
said
Fordham
was
open
to
expanding
it
to
other

represents
the

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why
is
it
that
we
always
seem
to
pick
the
slowest
line
in
a
supermarket
or
store?
Basically,
the
reason
is
simple:
the
chances
are
against
us.
To
explain,
imagine
that
you
are
in
a
store
where
there
are
three
lines.
____36____
If
there
are
more
lines,
your
chances
of
getting
into
the
speediest
queue
are
even
less.
Interestingly,
some
people
have
come
up
with
theories
and
formulas
to
calculate
this
kind
of
thing.
___37___
A
pioneering
queuing
theorist
was
an
engineer
named
Erlang.
He
wanted
to
figure
out
the
best
number
of
telephone
operators
to
have
at
the
telephone
exchange
in
the
early
1900s.
Taking
into
consideration
the
average
number
of
phone
calls
in
an
hour
and
the
average
call
length,
Erlang
came
up
with
formulas
to
determine
the
best
number
of
operators
that
should
be
on
duty
at
any
given
time.
____38____
On
top
of
that,
his
work
established
the
basis
for
queuing
theory,
which
became
a
new
branch
of
mathematics.
The
theories
first
invented
by
Erlang
are
still
used
today
in
a
variety
of
commercial
settings,
including
call
centers
and
traffic
engineering.
____39____
While
there
are
many
options
available
regarding
lining
up,
it
appears
that
a
snaking-line
approach—where
people
stand
in
a
single
line
and
wait
for
the
next
available
clerk—is
the
most
efficient.
____40____
Research
shows
that
this
option
is
about
three
times
faster
than
using
separate
lines,
which
is
the
approach
that
is
most
commonly
used
but
not
that
efficient
for
anyone
in
a
rush.
A.
This
is
the
method
that
most
banks
use.
B.
People
who
do
this
type
of
research
are
generally
known
as
queuing
theorists.
C.
His
formula
was
soon
accepted
by
telephone
companies,

A
【解析】
本文为说明文。这篇文章主要讲为什么人们总是选择最短的队伍排队,并且论述了对排队的研究以及理论的实际应用。
【36题详解】
根据前文“To
explain,
imagine
that
you
are
in
a
store
where
there
are
three
lines.”可知要在三条队伍中选一条排队,即有三分之一的机会(
one-in-three
chance
)
排到最快的队伍。D选项中“a
one-in-three
chance
”与上文
three
lines.“”一致。故D选项“你只有三分之一的机会选择最快的路线,所以很有可能你会错。”切题。故选D。
【37题详解】
空格处属于承上启下句。B选项中的前半句“people
who
do
this
type
of
research”承接上文“some
people
have
come
up
with
theories
and
formulas
to
calculate”研究人员提出理论和公式来计算。同时,B选项后半句“queuing
theorists”与下文的“A
pioneering
queuing
theorist
was
an
engineer
named
Erlang.”相呼应。故B选项“做这类研究的人通常被称为排队理论家。”切题。故选B
【38题详解】
根据上文“Taking
into
consideration
the
average
number
of
phone
calls
in
an
hour
and
the
average
call
length,
Erlang
came
up
with
formulas
to
determine
the
best
number
of
operators
that
should
be
on
duty
at
any
given
time.”可知,考虑到每小时的平均通话次数和平均通话时长,Erlang得出了计算公式,以确定在任何给定时间值班的最佳话务员人数。前文讨论的是对电话的研究,所以他提出的公式被电话公司所认可。与C选项中“His
formula
呼应“”came
up
with
formulas
,并且与后文呈递进关系,进一步阐述他的成果。故选C。
【39题详解】
根据首句“The
theories
first
invented
by
Erlang
are
still
used
today
in
a
variety
of
commercial
settings,”可知Erlang的理论现在仍然应用在各种商业领域。所以空格处讲述的是理论的实际应用。E选项中的he指代Erlang。故E选项“他所做的研究甚至帮助现代企业为公众提供满意的服务。
”切题。故选E。
【40题详解】
根据前文“it
appears
that
a
snaking-line
approach—where
people
stand
in
a
single
line
and
wait
for
the
next
available
clerk—is
the
most
efficient.”可知蛇形的排队方式是最有效的。同时,后文提到“Research
shows
that
this
option
is
about
three
times
faster
than
using
separate
lines,
which
is
the
approach
that
is
most
commonly
used
but
not
that
efficient
for
anyone
in
a
rush.”可知蛇形排队方式除了对赶时间的人不那么高效但却是是最常用的选择。与A选项“This
is
the
method
that
most
banks
use.(所以大多数银行都会选择这种方式。)”切题。THis指代的是a
snaking-line
approach。故选A。

【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:嫦娥五号探测器已经完成了对月球表面样品的采集,并将其装入集装箱,成为本世纪第三个成功着陆月球表面的航天器。分析句子结构可知become在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语Chang’e

Chinese
manned
lunar
travel,可知表示将来的动作应用一般将来时。故填will
help。
【61题详解】
考查状语从句。句意:如果任务成功,嫦娥5号将成为自1976年8月以来第一个从月球取样的航天器,这对中国的航天计划来说是一个真正的历史性事件:中国国家航天局在中国航天研究史上第一次执行了登陆月球的机器人取样返回任务。引导条件状语从句,表示“如果”应用if,句首单词首字母要大写。故填If。

first修饰,后跟不定式作后置定语。故填to
take。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:如果任务成功,嫦娥5号将成为自1976年8月以来第一个从月球取样的航天器,这对中国的航天计划来说是一个真正的历史性事件:中国国家航天局在中国航天研究史上第一次执行了登陆月球的机器人取样返回任务。修饰后文形容词historic

Having
held
the
interschool
storytelling
championship
for
the
past
two
years,
I
was
the
shining
star
of
my
school.
When
it
came
to
choosing
the
right
candidate
to
participate
in
such
competitions,
I
was
always
the
first
choice.
Naturally,
I
was
once
again
selected
to
represent
my
school
in
the
approaching
contest
this
year.
Upon
hearing
the
fact
that
I
was
chosen
again,
my
classmates
and
friends
acknowledged
that
I
would
undoubtedly
emerge
as
the
champion
again.
Consequently,
I
became
conceited.
I
was
so
proud
that
I
neglected
the
importance
of
practicing
for
the
contest.
A
week
before
the
contest,
my
teacher
Ms.
Sara
asked,
“Selena,
would
you
like
to
stand
in
front
of
the
class
to
rehearse
for
the
contest?”
She
had
tutored
me
in
the
past
two
competitions
and
knew
how
important
practice
was.
“Just
imagine
you
are
on
the
stage
in
the
presence
of
the
audience,”
she
added.
“I’m
sorry,
Ms.
Sara,”
I
replied.
“I
have
a
bit
of
a
sore
throat.”
This
was
usually
the
lie
I
would
tell
whenever
my
teacher
requested
me
to
practice
in
front
of
the
class.
I
always
found
excuses
to
avoid
doing
it
because
I
believed
that
I
was
the
best
and
therefore
the
practice
was
unnecessary.
On
one
occasion,
I
even
told
Mrs.
Sara
not
to
worry
too
much
as
I
was
well
prepared
for
the
contest.
In
fact,
I
did
everything
but
practice
my
script.
I
only
managed
to
glance
briefly
through
the
story
the
day
before
the
contest.
As
the
best
storyteller
among
the
students
of
the
local
secondary
schools,
I
was
too
vain
to
practice
and
expected
everything
to
be
fine.
The
contest
was
being
held
in
the
local
community
hall.
On
the
day
of
the
contest,
the
hall
was
packed.
My
school
teachers
and
principal
were
there
along
with
many
of
my
classmates
and
schoolmates.
I
was
the
eighth
contestant
out
of
twenty
in
total.
Those
who
spoke
before
me
did
extremely
well.
On
seeing
their
fascinating
and
outstanding
performance,
I
began
to
lose
confidence
in
myself.
My
palms
sweated
heavily
and
I
started
to
feel
nervous.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Soon,
it
was
my
turn
to
talk.
Facing
the
crowd,
I
found
myself
suffering
from
stage
fright.
I
spoke
in
an
expressionless
voice
and
even
stuttered
a
few
times
as
I
forgot
parts
of
the
story.
My
legs
trembled
and
so
did
my
voice.
On
seeing
my
terrible
performance,
the
judges
shook
their
heads.
The
supporters
from
my
school
looked
at
me
in
disappointment.
I
have
never
been
so
embarrassed
in
my
life.
In
the
end,
I
walked
off
the
stage,
my
eyes
filled
with
tears.
Finally,
results
were
announced
after
the
contest.
I
did
not
win
any
prizes
—
not
even
a
consolation
one.
It
was
not
surprising
at
all.
I
felt
ashamed
when
I
faced
my
classmates
and
of
course,
Ms.
Sara.
I
regretted
underestimating
my
opponents
and
overestimating
myself.
My
vanity
had
cost
me
the
championship.
I
now
regretted
being
so
arrogant.
I
had
learned
my
lesson
well
and
finally
understood
the
meaning
of
the
two
sayings,
“Pride
goes
before
a
fall.”
and
“Practice
makes
perfect.”

【解析】
【分析】
本文以校际讲故事锦标赛为线索展开,讲述了作者因多次参加这样比赛获奖,是学校里一颗闪亮的明星。那一年,作者又一次被选为学校代表。然而,作者变得自负起来。太骄傲了,以至于忽略了为比赛练习的重要性。比赛前,作者的老师萨拉女士要求作者在全班同学面前练习时,作者通常都会撒谎。到了比赛的那天,作者看到了别人精彩的表演,开始开始感到紧张,手掌大汗淋漓。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“很快,轮到我讲故事了。”可知,第一段可描写作者由于赛前没有练习,准备不够充分,表演的时候非常紧张,甚至有几次口吃和忘词。这次表演非常糟糕,评委和支持者们很失望。作者感觉这辈子从来没有这么尴尬过,眼含着泪水走下舞台。
②由第二段首句内容“最后,比赛结束后宣布了比赛结果。”可知,第二段可描写作者没有得奖。作者感到羞愧,后悔低估了对手,高估了自己,终于明白了“骄傲自满”和“熟能生巧”这两句话的含义。

B
Though
not
as
mainstream
as
devices
like
smartphones
and
fitness
trackers,
more
companies
are
now
experimenting
with
the
concept
of
connected
garments.
Among
the
pioneers
is
London-based
CuteCircuit,
which
has
been
creating
fashionable
smart
clothing
since
2004.
The
company’s
latest
creation
is
the
“Sound
Shirt,”
which
allows
deaf
people
to
“feel”
live
music
by
transforming
the
tunes
into
touch
feelings
in
real
time.
The
fashionable
jacket
achieves
the
incredible
function
using
software
that
changes
the
music
into
data
and
wirelessly
sends
it
to
the
16-micro
actuators(促动器)placed
inside
the
cloth.
The
devices
vibrate(振动)in
sync(同步)to
the
intensity(强度)of
the
music
being
played,
allowing
the
wearer
to
feel
each
instrument
individually.
For
example,
violin
can
be
felt
on
the
arms,
while
the
deeper,
heavier
bass
notes
can
be
felt
close
to
the
stomach.
The
series
of
touch-like
feelings
across
the
wearer’s
body
enables
them
to
feel
the
entire
composition,
resulting
in
a
fully
amazing
musical
experience.
To
ensure
the
shirt
is
comfortable,
the
designers
chose
to
leave
out
wires
and
instead
wove
conductive(可传导的)material
into
the
garment’s
cloth.
Francesca
Rosella,
co-founder
and
chief
creative
officer
of
CuteCircuit,
explains,
“There
are
no
wires
inside,
so
we’re
only
using
smart
material—we
have
a
combination
of
microelectronics
and
very
thin,
flexible
and
conductive
material.
All
these
little
electronic
motors
are
connected
with
these
conductive
material
so
that
the
garment
is
soft
and
stretchable.”
CuteCircuit,
which
has
been
testing
the
Sound
Shirt
for
three
years,
expects
to
make
it
available
to
the
general
public
shortly.
Priced
at
$3,673,
the
smart
jacket
will
not
be
cheap.
However,
twin
sisters
Hermon
and
Heroda
Berhane,
who
lost
their
hearing
at
a
young
age,
believe
the
hi-tech
garment
is
a
worthwhile
investment,
especially
for
deaf
people
with
a
passion
for
dancing.
“It’s
almost
like
feeling
the
depth
of
the
music,”
says
Hermon.
“It
just
feels
as
though
we
can
move
along
with
it.”
Heroda
agrees,
adding,
“I
think
it
could
definitely
change
our
lives.”
24.
What
is
the
function
of
the
actuators
in
the
clothing?
A.
Turning
music
into
data.
B.
Causing
touch-like
feelings.
C.
Conducting
electricity
in
the
clothing.
D.
Wirelessly
sending
data
to
the
clothing.
25.
Why
does
the
author
mention
Francesca
Rosella’s
words
about
the
clothing?
A.
To
explain
how
the
clothing
functions.
B.
To
explain
the
principles
of
smart
material.
C.
To
show
the
clothing
is

overpower.
In
a
study,
researchers
found
that
machines
that
make
recommendations-or
AI
experts-were
as
influential
as
human
experts
when
the
AI
experts
recommended
which
photo
users
should
add
to
their
online
business
profiles.
However,
both
AI
and
human
experts
failed
to
budge
them
if
their
feedback
was
negative
and
went
against
popular
views
among
other
users,
said
S.
Shyam
Sundar,
a
professor
of
Media
Effects.
Because
people
are
increasingly
using
social
media
to
look
for
feedback,
studies
suggest
that
expert
opinions
and
the
bandwagon
effect
(从众效应)
may
be
important
factors
in
influencing
decisions.
According
to
Jinping
Wang,
a
doctoral
candidate
in
mass
communication
and
first
author
of
the
study.
"Nowadays,
we
often
turn
to
online
platforms
for
opinions
from
other
people-like
our
peers
and
experts-before
making
a
decision,"
said
Wang.
AI
experts
are
often
less
expensive
than
human
experts
and
they
can
also
work
24
hours
a
day,
which,
Wang
suggests,
might
make
them
appealing
to
online
businesses.
The
researchers
also
found
that
the
AI's
group
status
(群体地位)
-in
this
case,
national
origin
was
pointed
out-did
not
seem
to
affect
a
person's
acceptance
of
its
recommendation.
Among
human
experts,
however,
an
expert
from
a
similar
national
origin
who
offered
a
negative
opinion
of
a
photograph
tended
to
be
more
influential
than
a
human
expert
from
an
unknown
country
who
offered
a
similar
negative
rating
of
a
photograph.
While
findings
that
suggest
group
status
may
not
affect
whether
a
person
values
the
view
of
AI
experts
sound
like
good
news,
Sundar
suggests
that
the
same
cultural
biases
(偏见)
might
still
be
at
work
in
AI
experts
for
they
could
be
hidden
in
the
programming
and
training
data.
"It
can
be
both
good-and
bad-because
it
all
depends
on
what
you
feed
AI,
"
said
Sundar.
"While
it
is
good
to
believe
in
AI's
ability
to
transcend
(超越)
cultural
biases,
we
have
to
keep
in
mind
that
if
you
train
the
AI
on
pictures
from
one
culture,
they
could
give
misleading
recommendations
on
pictures
meant
for
use
in
other
cultural
contexts."

D
The
lights
go
down,
music
plays,
and
a
young
woman
on
a
bike
at
the
front
of
the
class
encourages
students
to
spin
faster
and
harder.
When
the
lights
go
back
on,
the
students
on
the
bikes
pull
out
their
notebooks,
and
it’s
clear
that
this
is
not
SoulCycle.
Instead,
it’s
a
first-of-its-kind
business
school
course
at
Fordham
University
that
is
taught
on
spin
bikes
in
a
university.
“It’s
the
first
class
that
I
mention
to
anybody
when
anybody
asks
me
what
classes
I’m
taking,”
said
Amanda
Vopat,
22,
a
business
administration
major.
“I
think
people
are
really
excited
about
it.”
The
75-minute
twice-weekly
course
is
the
brainchild
of
Julita
Haber,
a
business
school
professor
at
Fordham.
“I
have
been
introducing
movement
and
fitness
in
my
classes
for
the
past
seven
years,”
she
said.
“I
found
the
spin
class
would
really
allow
students
to
exercise
while
a
professor
lectures
at
the
same
time.”
The
course
the
students
are
taking
while
cycling
is
no
joke.
Managing
Professional
Relationships
is
an
upper-level
business
school
course
taken
primarily
by
juniors
and
seniors.
The
students
are
fully
instrumental
in
each
class,
selecting
the
music,
leading
stretches
before
and
after
class
and
leading
the
intervals
during
the
class.
Haber
stops
her
lecture
every
20
minutes
throughout
the
class.
While
one
student
turns
off
the
lights,
another
student
turns
up
the
music
and
a
third
student
goes
to
a
bike
in
the
front
of
the
class
to
lead
their
classmates
in
high-intensity
interval
that
lasts
two
to
three
minutes,
just
enough
to
re-energize
the
students.
“It’s
a
fantastic
way
of
engaging
students
and
as
a
professor,
as
a
teacher,
that’s
really
gratifying,”
she
said.
“They
don’t
have
their
smartphones,
and
they
don’t
have
laptops
so
they
are
physically
engaged
and
also
mentally
engaged
in
what
is
being
said.”
The
course
is
the
first
of
its
kind
at
Fordham,
and
Haber
believes
it
is
also
a
first
across
the
United
States.
She
has
authored
research
on
the
unique
classroom
approach,
which
she
calls
fitness
integrated
learning.
Donna
Rapaccioli,
the
head
of
Fordham’s
Gabelli
School
of
Business,
described
how
students
were
“energized”
by
the
class
and
said
Fordham
was
open
to
expanding
it
to
other
courses.
“Definitely,”
Rapaccioli
answered
when
asked
if
Haber’s
course
represents
the
future
of
learning.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why
is
it
that
we
always
seem
to
pick
the
slowest
line
in
a
supermarket
or
store?
Basically,
the
reason
is
simple:
the
chances
are
against
us.
To
explain,
imagine
that
you
are
in
a
store
where
there
are
three
lines.
____36____
If
there
are
more
lines,
your
chances
of
getting
into
the
speediest
queue
are
even
less.
Interestingly,
some
people
have
come
up
with
theories
and
formulas
to
calculate
this
kind
of
thing.
___37___
A
pioneering
queuing
theorist
was
an
engineer
named
Erlang.
He
wanted
to
figure
out
the
best
number
of
telephone
operators
to
have
at
the
telephone
exchange
in
the
early
1900s.
Taking
into
consideration
the
average
number
of
phone
calls
in
an
hour
and
the
average
call
length,
Erlang
came
up
with
formulas
to
determine
the
best
number
of
operators
that
should
be
on
duty
at
any
given
time.
____38____
On
top
of
that,
his
work
established
the
basis
for
queuing
theory,
which
became
a
new
branch
of
mathematics.
The
theories
first
invented
by
Erlang
are
still
used
today
in
a
variety
of
commercial
settings,
including
call
centers
and
traffic
engineering.
____39____
While
there
are
many
options
available
regarding
lining
up,
it
appears
that
a
snaking-line
approach—where
people
stand
in
a
single
line
and
wait
for
the
next
available
clerk—is
the
most
efficient.
____40____
Research
shows
that
this
option
is
about
three
times
faster
than
using
separate
lines,
which
is
the
approach
that
is
most
commonly
used
but
not
that
efficient
for
anyone
in
a
rush.
A.
This
is
the
method
that
most
banks
use.
B.
People
who
do
this
type
of
research
are
generally
known
as
queuing
theorists.
C.
His
formula
was
soon
accepted
by
telephone
companies,
including
the
British
Post.
D.
You
only
have
a
one-in-three
chance
of
picking
the
quickest
line,
so
most
likely
you’ll
be
wrong.
E.
The
research
he
conducted
even
helps
modern
businesses
provide
satisfactory
services
to
the
public.
F.
Businesses
know
just
the
tricks
for
distracting
their
customers
from
the
long
lines
they’re
waiting
in.
G.
Grocery
stores
try
to
have
enough
employees
at
checkout
lines
to
get
all
customers
through
without
delay.

A
Uber
driver
stopped
her

day
so
she

a
mother
with
a
sick
child.
Nicole
Ihus’s
son
John
Henry
was
___41___
last
month
with

Nicole,
living
in
Kansas
City,
contacted
doctors
from
Minnesota
and
Missouri
hoping
to
treat
John
Henry
for
the
condition,
but
in

Luckily,
Nicole
managed

condition”
at
Johns
Hopkins
in
Florida
—
so
she
traveled
___43___
there
to
give
her
newborn
son
a
fighting
chance.
After
John
Henry
was
___44___
into
the
ICU,
Nicole
felt
sad
and
___45___
in
the
new
state,
but
she
had
to
leave
her
son’s
side
to
buy
him
some
___46___.
Upon
ordering
an
Uber
ride
to
the
nearby
children’s
store,
she
was
___47___
by
a
woman
named
Belinda.
Shortly

got
into
her
car,
the

poured
out
her
heartbreaking

said.
“She
was
___49___
a
couple
of
times
and
I
really
felt
sorry
for
her.”
______50______
simply
dropping
Nicole
off
at
the
store,
however,
Belinda
parked
the
car
and
insisted
on
accompanying
her
______51______
into
the
store
so
she
could
______52______
John
Henry
to
new
clothes.
Obviously,
Nicole
was
filled
with
gratitude.
Nicole
said,
“For
this
______53______
to
go
completely
out
of
her
way
—
stop
what
she
was
doing
—
to
be
with
me
for
several
hours
while
we
shopped
together,
that
was
just
______54______.”
As
Nicole
cares
for
her
newborn

Having
held
the
interschool
storytelling
championship
for
the
past
two
years,
I
was
the
shining
star
of
my
school.
When
it
came
to
choosing
the
right
candidate
to
participate
in
such
competitions,
I
was
always
the
first
choice.
Naturally,
I
was
once
again
selected
to
represent
my
school
in
the
approaching
contest
this
year.
Upon
hearing
the
fact
that
I
was
chosen
again,
my
classmates
and
friends
acknowledged
that
I
would
undoubtedly
emerge
as
the
champion
again.
Consequently,
I
became
conceited.
I
was
so
proud
that
I
neglected
the
importance
of
practicing
for
the
contest.
A
week
before
the
contest,
my
teacher
Ms.
Sara
asked,
“Selena,
would
you
like
to
stand
in
front
of
the
class
to
rehearse
for
the
contest?”
She
had
tutored
me
in
the
past
two
competitions
and
knew
how
important
practice
was.
“Just
imagine
you
are
on
the
stage
in
the
presence
of
the
audience,”
she
added.
“I’m
sorry,
Ms.
Sara,”
I
replied.
“I
have
a
bit
of
a
sore
throat.”
This
was
usually
the
lie
I
would
tell
whenever
my
teacher
requested
me
to
practice
in
front
of
the
class.
I
always
found
excuses
to
avoid
doing
it
because
I
believed
that
I
was
the
best
and
therefore
the
practice
was
unnecessary.
On
one
occasion,
I
even
told
Mrs.
Sara
not
to
worry
too
much
as
I
was
well
prepared
for
the
contest.
In
fact,
I
did
everything
but
practice
my
script.
I
only
managed
to
glance
briefly
through
the
story
the
day
before
the
contest.
As
the
best
storyteller
among
the
students
of
the
local
secondary
schools,
I
was
too
vain
to
practice
and
expected
everything
to
be
fine.
The
contest
was
being
held
in
the
local
community
hall.
On
the
day
of
the
contest
the
hall
was
packed.
My
school
teachers
and
principal
were
there
along
with
many
of
my
classmates
and
schoolmates.
I
was
the
eighth
contestant
out
of
twenty
in
total.
Those
who
spoke
before
me
did
extremely
well.
On
seeing
their
fascinating
and
outstanding
performance,
I
began
to
lose
confidence
in
myself.
My
palms
sweated
heavily
and
I
started
to
feel
nervous.
