27、as a cold March day in High Point, North Carolina. The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice, stamping their feet to stay warm, Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered（发抖）a little as she watched her teammate Paris White play. The two didn know e

To do CPR, you press on the sick person the body and takes oxygen to organs. Without oxygen the brain is damaging quickly.It

30、wAmazingly, Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before. Still, she hesitated. She didn it well enough. But when no one else came forward, Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR, it was the difference betwe en life and death, ” says Taylor.Taylor s swift action helped her teammates calm down.

42、ldre n each year and disabled even more, was n early wiped out i n the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine（ 疫苗）. But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year, 115 measles

43、 cases have been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called“ hprotects the peopl

44、e who get hurt easily, including those who cant be vaccinated for medical reasons, babyoung to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn t work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and ever

45、yone is in even bigger danger.Thats exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, N.Y ., where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for de

46、cades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out（ 决定不参加 ） of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seventeen states al

47、low parents to get an exemption （豁免 ）, sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now, several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited

48、 medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life- saving benefits vaccines provide, but theyll exist only as long as everyonshares in the risks.63 The first two paragraphs suggest that .A a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB the

49、outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsD information about measles spreads quickly64 Herd immunity works well when .A exemptions are allowedB several vaccines are used togetherC the whole neighborhood is involved inD new regulations are added

50、to the state laws65 What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A The overuse of vaccine.B The lack of medical care.C The features of measles itself.D The vaccine opt-outs of some people.66 What is the purpose of the passage?A To introduce the idea of exemption.B To discuss methods to cure m

51、easles.C To stress the importance of vaccination.D To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.DHollywood s theory that mach ines with evi 邪恶）mi nds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly. The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence（AI） may become extremely

52、 good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener, who founded the field of cybernetics （控制论），put it this way:If we use, to achieve our purpoctesp icatiagency with whoseoperation we cannot effectively interfere（ 干预 ）, we had better be quit

53、e sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire.”A machine with a specific purpose has another quality, one that we usually associate with living things: a wish to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor is it something introdu

54、ced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetching coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing a

55、nyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we could face a kind of global chess match against very determined, super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict with our own, with the real world as the chessboard.The possibility of entering into and losing such a match

56、should concentrate the minds of computer scientists.Some researchers argue that we can seal the mach ines in side a kind of firewall, using them to an swer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world. Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans, let alone super intelligent machines.Solvi ng the safety problem well eno ugh to move forward in Al seems to be possible but not easy. There are probably decades in which to plan for the arriv
