His valet(男仆)had entered several times on tiptoe into the room to see if he was waking up, and had wondered what made his young master sleep so late. Finally his bell sounded, and Victor came in softly with a cup of tea and a pile of letters on a small tray of old china, and drew back the curtains.Monsieur has well slept this morning, he said, smiling.What oclock is it, Victor?” asked Dorian Gray sleepily.“One hour and a quarter, Monsieur.”How late it was! He sat up, and having sipped some tea, turned over his letters. One of them was from Lord Henry, and had been brought that morning. He hesitated for a moment, and then put it aside. The others he opened at a random. They contained the usual collection of cards, invitations to dinner, tickets for private views, programmers of charity concerts, and the like that are showered on fashionable young men every morning during the season. There was a rather heavy bill for a silver Louis-XVI toilet-set that he had not yet had the courage to send on to his guardians(监护人), who were extremely old-fashioned people and did not realize that we live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities; and there were several very politely worded communications from Jermyn Street money-lenders offering to advance any sum of money at a moments notice and at the most reasonable rates of interestAfter about ten minutes he got up, and passed into the bathroom. The cool water refreshed him after his long sleep. He seemed to have forgotten all that he had gone through. A dim sense of having taken part in some strange tragedy came to him once or twice, but there was the unreality of a dream about itAs soon as he was dressed, he sat down to a light French breakfast It was a nice day. The warm air seemed laden with sweet flavor. A bee flew in, buzzed round and stood before him. He felt perfectly happy.24.How did Victor feel when he entered Grays room several times?A. Afraid.B. Nervous.Worried.Curious.25.What kind of life did Gray live probably?A. A simple life. B.A wasteful life. C. A healthy life. D.A hard life.26. What might Dorian Gray have gone through the day before?A Happy dinners.B. Charity concerts.C. Money lending.D. A strange tragedy.27. What does the underlined word “laden” in the last paragraph mean?A. FilledB Burdened.C. Equipped.D. Mixed. CA Google-developed supercomputer has beaten a South Korean Go(围棋)grandmaster again, taking a commanding 2-0 lead in a five-game series that has become an amazing global debut(首演)for a new style of artificial intelligence (AI).After shocking the world by defeating Lee Se-dol one of the greatest modem players of the ancient board game 一 in their opening match on Wednesday, the AlphaGo computer proved it was no luck with another victory after a tiring four-and-a-half-hour meeting.“I am quite speechless,” Mr. Lee said after the match, adding he had found “no weakness” in AlphaGos performance. “I admit it was a very clear loss on my part. AlphaGo played a near perfect game today . I will try my best so that I will win at least one game.”The grandmaster had earlier predicted that he would beat the supercomputer by a “landslide”.The 33-year-old must win all three remaining matches to win the series that has a cash prize of $US 1 million.AlphaGos creators have described Go as the“Mt Everest” of AI, mentioning the complexity of the game, which requires a degree of creativity and intuition(直觉)to defeat an opponent(对手)The most famous AI victory came in 1997, when the IBM-developed supercomputer Deep Blue beat Garry Kasparov, the then-world class chess champion, in its second attempt.But a true mastery of Go, which has more possible move arrangements than there are atoms in the universe, had long been considered the unshared field of humans 一 until now.AlphaGo first rose to fame with a 5-0 defeating European champion Fan Hui last October, but it had been expected to struggle against 33-ycar-old Mr. Lee, who has topped the world rankings for most of the past decade.The computer uses two sets of “deep neutral networks” that allow it to calculate data in a more human-like fashion 一 dropping millions of potential moves that human players would know were senseless. It also employs algorithms(运算法则)that allow it to learn and improve from match play experience.28. In how many games has AlfaGo beaten Lee Se-dol up to now according to the news report?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D.Five29.What result did Lee Se-dol expect himself of before the game series?A clear loss.B. complete failure.C.A lucky victory.D.A complete victory.30.How did Lee Se-dol feel about Afagosl performance?A. Surprised. B. Envious.C. Hopeless.D. Regretful31.Which of the following is the most important to the victory of AlfaGo?A. Match play experience.B. Complexity, creativity and intuition. C. Deep neutral networks and algorithms.D. Potential moves and human-like fashion. DThe “Pygmalion effect” is a theory teaching that people will act or behave in the way that others expect them to. The effect has both positive and negative outcomes 一 a person expected by his or her superiors(上司)to succeed will, but the opposite is also usually true.The effect has its origins in Greek mythology(神话).According to a popular myth. Pygmalion was a prince of Cyprus and a sculptor who created and fell in love with an ivory statue of a woman. He begged the goddess Venus to give life to his creation, and she did. Pygmalion married the resulting woman and they had a perfect life together. He had expected the statue to be perfect in every way, and she fulfilled his expectations when she was brought to life.English writer George Bernard Shaw expanded this idea in his popular play Pygmalion, which served as the inspiration for the perhaps better known My Fair Lady. In these dramas, a well-educated professor transforms a low-class woman into a lady fit for society mainly by believing in her and expecting the best of her.Many studies have been conducted on the Pygmalion effect in the classroom. Teachers who are given information that certain students are more likely to achieve than others often find that those students do, in fact, perform better 一 even if they are not objectively advantaged. Even teachers who try not to convey their beliefs or expectations for certain students often find that those expectations have influential power.Many psychologists think that teachers do actually convey their expectations to their students, even if neither they nor the children ever actually realize it. Body language is just as important as verbal communication when conveying both positive and negative expectations, as is tone of voice. The use of body language is most commonly a subconscious form of communication, but it can prove to be very powerful.The Pygmalion effect also has an important role in the working world. Managers and bosses can often influence the work and success of employees by expecting them to either rise or fall. The same as in school, these expectations never have to be conveyed clearly in order to take root32,What is a necessary factor in the Pygmalion effect?A.A polite behavior. B A code of conduct.C. successful superior. D.A passively-conveyed expectation.33.Which of the following is a possible Pygmalion on their occasions?A. Excellent students in education.B. Hard-working employees in business.C. The goddess Venus in Greek mythology.D. The educated professor in My Fair Lady.34.What is mainly discussed about Pygmalion effect in Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3?A. Its origins in mythology and literature. B. its success in mythology and literature. C. Its popularity in mythology and literature. D. Its application in mythology and literature.35.What is the least powerful in conveying the expectations?A. Tone of voice. B . A strong belief.C. Body language. D.
