Please see below for more info.TOURS

9、: The School of Art does not offer tours of the School facilities or accommodate any walk-in tours.ADMISSION OPEN HOUSE The Yale School of Art offers an Open House annually for interested applicants. Visitors have the chance to learn more about our MFA program and graduate study from students.2019 Y

Only pre-registered prospective students may attend and event details will be sent to the email address used to register.Note that the School of Art will NOT conduct individual interviews or provide portfolio feedback at Op

Attendees should not bring examples of their work to this event.Capacity is limited and only prospective applicants should register to attend as we will likely not have room for guests.Pre-registered attendees will receive confirmation email communications with event details and travel inf

12、ormation to New Haven.Open House will be live-streamed and may be attended virtually on November 14th.OPEN STUDIOSDuring the Spring semester, the Yale School of Art hosts its annual graduate open studios featuring work from the departments of Graphic Design, Painting and Printmaking, Photography, an

13、d Sculpture. Studios are open to the public and located across four buildings on Yales campus in downtown New Haven.Following Yale University guidance in response to thespread of COVID-19, the Yale School of Art is suspending all public events and programming through to at least April 5, 2020. 2020

It is the only chance to visit buildings of the school. BImagine that youve got a robot that looks like a human, talks like a human, and ev

17、en interacts like a human. Although you know its just a machine, you can relate to it. But would you consider it as a friend?This is just one of the questions that you may find difficult to answer. Sooner or later artificial intelligence (AI) will bring many moral challenges. But AI is here to stay

18、and will have a big impact on our future. As Li Fei-Fei, professor of computer science at Stanford University put it, “If our era is the next industrial revolution, as many claim, AI is surely one of its major driving forces.”Merriam-Webster defines AI as “the capability of a machine to copy intelli

19、gent human behavior”. But what makes us want to create “thinking machines”? After all, thinking and consciousness are inimitable things of human beings at least at present. They separate us from all other creatures on Earth.For one thing, humans constantly desire to develop new technology just becau

20、se they can. The desire to create AI is the ultimate expression of this: We want to test the limit of human intelligence by building a brand new intelligence. For another, AI has all sorts of practical benefits to offer us. It would free us from repetitive work and make our lives easier. Imagine get

21、ting to your destination with an AI-guided self-driving car. Imagine having an AI tutor that could help you with your homework.However, as AI becomes more important in life the worries will begin. Will AI effectively start to take over us? Today, with online shopping sites and social networking plat

22、forms, AI already influences many of our choices. Algorithms (算法) determine the content we see on the Internet, and make recommendations about everything from what we watch on TV to where we travel. Some fear that machines will become better at making decisions than humans are, and that therefore we

23、 will lose our control of AI.But its not all doom and gloom(前景暗淡). Max Tegmark, author of Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, believes that with careful planning, AI can become a powerful tool. “Im optimistic that we can create an inspiring future with AI if we win the race

24、between the growing power of AI and the growing wisdom with which we manage it,” he told Motherboard.But like it or not, AI is shaping the society and will dramatically change the way we live.24. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “inimitable” in Paragraph 3?A.Unique.B.Precise.C.Comm

25、on.D.Essential. 25.What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on?A.The influence of AI on our future.B.The reasons for man to develop AI.C. Different voices on developing AI.D.Worries arising from the use of AI.26.What is the authors attitude towards AIs impact on humans?A.Concerned. B.Doubtful. C.Objective

26、. D.Subjective. 27.What can be concluded from Max Tegmark words?A.AI wont pose a threat to human beings.B.AI will surely bring us a promising future. C.Humans are wise enough to take control of AI.D.Humans must keep up with the growing power of AI.CScientists say they have discovered an earthquake-l

27、ike event that can happen during a hurricane or other powerful ocean storms. They are calling it a “stormquake”. Researchers came up with this name after studying events connected with or caused by earthquakes on the sea floor during such storms. They found that the shaking can feel as strong as a m

28、agnitude 3.5 earthquake. Intense energy from hurricanes and other severe storms can create very large waves in the ocean. These waves then “interact” in some places with solid earth under the sea to cause “intense seismic (地震的) source activity,” said the leader researcher Fan, a seismologist and pro

29、fessor at Florida State University. “We can have seismic sources in the ocean just like earthquakes within the hard outer layer of the Earth,” he added. “The exciting part is seismic sources caused by hurricanes can last for hours or even days.” The researchers found evidence of more than 10,000 sto

30、rmquakes in coastal areas of the United States and Canada. Stormquakes were found to have happened around continental shelves or sea floors containing flat land and at lower depths, the research showed. Even with evidence of so many stromquakes happening, it was not known until recently that such ev

31、ents even existed. This is mainly because scientists studying earthquakes have generally considered ocean-caused seismic waves as “background noise”. The research found that major U.S. hurricanes had produced a lot of stormquakes. One example was Hurricane Bill in 2009 in the Atlantic Ocean, which c

32、aused about 300 stormquakes as it moved north, past New Jersey. Other examples of stormquakes were Hurricane Ike in 2008 and Hurricane Irene in 2011. But the study found no evidence of stormquakes off the coast of Mexico. Also, no such activity was recorded in areas along the U.S. East Coast, starti

33、ng in New Jersey, and continuing all the way down to Georgia. The team noted that even Hurricane Sandy, one of the most costly storms in U.S. history, did not cause a single stormquake. Fan says this suggests that stormquakes are strongly influenced by the physical shape of the seafloors surface and

34、 seafloor conditions. Fan added that there are still “lots of unknowns” about stormquakes. But he said discovering them “suggests we are reaching a new level of understanding of seismic waves”. He hopes the discovery will lead to improved study methods for hurricanes, which in the past have mainly b

35、een observed from satellites in the sky. “Now we are able to understand the phenomenon or at least track part of its passage through the solid earth as well,” he said. 28.What is the distinctive feature of a stormquake? A.Being seasonal. B.Being destructive. C.Being long-lasting. D.Being interactive

36、. 29.Why were stormquakes unknown to science previously? A.Because they were extremely rare on the Earth. B.Because they were once neglected by scientists. C.Because they generally happen in deep sea floors. D.Because they are quite similar to common earthquakes. 30.What message is conveyed in Parag

37、raph 4? A.All hurricanes dont bring about stormquakes. B.Stormquakes happen more along the East Coast. C.Stronger hurricanes tend to produce stormquakes. D.The sea floors condition changes in stormquakes. 31.What is the significance of the discovery? A.Offering an alternative angle to research hurri

38、canes. B.Helping to predict an earthquake more accurately. C.Suggesting the richness of the seismic wave field. D.Preventing potential hurricanes and lessening losses.DThe most intuitive(直观的) argument against immigration we come across is that immigrants are causing higher unemployment rate or lower

39、 wages for low-skilled workers within the nation, which is probably not true in the US. Statistics show that in the US, wages and unemployment rate are rarely affected for the reason that immigrants move more flexibly for jobs than local workers.Immigration boosts economy by driving up both demand a

40、nd supply. Official data show that immigrants have a far more diverse composition than the native-born. They have a higher percentage of doctoral degree owners while also a higher percentage of worse-educated. The effect is that companies actually adjust to the change in job market in the long-run a

41、nd figure out their way to deal with a mix of workers with different skills and levels, which at the end of the day fits them into different jobs.For those who have a bachelor or a doctoral degree, they are the driving engines whose innovation largely boosts the US economy. Immigrants to the United

42、States tend to generate more patentable technologies than natives: though they constitute only 18 percent of the 25 and older workforce, immigrants obtain 28 percent of high-quality patents. Immigrants are also more likely to become Nobel winners in physics, chemistry, and physiology or medicine. Th

43、ese innovations can increase productivity and job supplies in the long run.For those badly-educated, even though they did cause a negative impact to net financial contribution to the US government, the impact is rather small compared to those undereducated native people. It is because as immigrants

44、who come to seek for a change for their life, it is more likely for them to take a job rather than accepting the basic living standard provided by government subsidy (补贴) like those desperate native-born Americans who have lost faith in the so-called “American Dream”. In the long run, it eases the b

45、urden of government and brings in more tax income. In this sense, their stable income also brings about more domestic demand in the US.All in all, immigrants are actually beneficial for the US economy, largely owing to the values created by those highly-educated. The expulsions (驱逐) of unauthorized

46、immigrants may bring about negative impact to the economy. 32.Why does the author write this passage?A.To appeal to more foreigners to immigrate to America.B.To urge the US to treat unauthorized immigrants equally.C.To confirm whats long been believed about immigration.D.To argue for the positive ec

47、onomic effects of immigration.33.How are immigrants different from the natives?A.They contribute less to government finances. B.They have less access to government subsidy.C.Theyre more confident of the American Dream. D.Theyre more likely to go where jobs are available.34. What can we learn from th

48、e passage?A. Companies are more willing to employ immigrants.B. Immigrants are more adaptable than native Americans.C. Most Americans with a doctors degree are immigrants. D. Immigration creates more job opportunities for America. 35.How is the passage mainly developed?A.By listing specific statisti

49、cs.B.By making a detailed analysis.C.By presenting typical examples.D.By comparing different opinions.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。A popular Yale University psychology course now available for free online. I decided to see what it was all about. 36 After t

50、aking the course, Im convinced that anyone who adopts and practices the strategies provided can truly become happier. Reconnecting with a friend can boost happiness, but so can a meaningful encounter with a stranger. One of the most complex things we can engage with is another persons mind. 37 In fa

51、ct, many studies have found that the more you use social media, the less happy you are. This is because social mediaespecially picture-heavy platformspresent things others have that you dont, making you want more and appreciate less. 38 However, varying your approach is key. If you perform the same

52、act of kindness over and over, it may begin to feel like an obligation or a boring task. The reactions you got made you feel better about yourselves. Kindness brings other happiness benefits, too. Helping others takes the focus away from our own worries and problems, which can boost happiness. And b

53、eing generous wont increase levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Perhaps surprisingly, kindness improves overall physical health. Taking exercise causes hormonal changes in the body that make you feel good and help interrupt negative thoughts. Clinically depressed people who exercised regularly im

54、proved just as much as those who took antidepressants. 39 But anecdotally, most people who exercise will tell you they feel better. Shortchanging your sleep can make you bad-tempered. 40 A lot of people know that sleep is good but some are forced to sacrifice sleep because they have other things tak

55、ing up their time. A. I was curious to see what the course was recommending.B. Volunteering to help someone can make you happier than doing self-centered things. C. Getting enough shut-eye can boost your mood.D. Ways of our minds trick us into being less happy.E. After all, Ive been writing about ha

56、ppiness for years.F. Online friends dont count. G. Getting out of a depression is not exactly the same as happiness.第三部分 语言运用 (共两节,满分 35 分)第一节 完形填空(共 15 小题; 每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When Mike Mushaw joined the national bone marrow(骨髓) registry three years ago, he never really gave it a second thought.
