8、y environment.D. Health insurance.BA few years ago. four female mountain gorillas(大猩猩)left home,abandoning not only their mate - a sick alpha silverback - but their infants (幼崽),which were barely old enough to Iced themselves. Most mammals abandoned by their mothers risk an early death, and research
9、ers worried about the young gorillas. Instead, the scientists got a heartwarming surprise. The young gorillas' uncle, a male gorilla named Kubaha, began to take care of them. He let them sleep in his nest and climb all over him like a jungle gym. Kubaha's willingness to be a foster dad turns
10、 out to be surprisingly common in mountain gorillas. An analysis on mountain gorillas at the Gorilla Fund's Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda has revealed that when young mountain gorillas lose their mothers, they do not have a greater risk of dying or losing their place in the social hierarchy
11、 because the rest of the group buffers them from the loss. The social group has evolved to protect the infants from the ill effects of losing their mothers. The researchers confirmed this assumption by focusing on data on 59 gorillas between the ages of 2 and 8 who lost their mothers or were orphane
12、d(成为孤儿)before they were fully mature. They then compared the survival of these animals across their lifetimes with the survival of 139 nonorphaned gorillas. They also compared their reproductive success and social rank as adults - and tracked who the infants spent the most time with. Not only were t
13、he orphaned and motherless gorillas at no greater risk of dying,they also suffered no long-term effect on their ability to reproduce or on their social rank, the team reports today in eLife. The findings suggest such altruistic behavior is not unique to humans - and that dads play an important role
14、in primate youngsters' lives, says Duke behavioral ecologist Susan Alberts, "Nonhuman primates often are really good dads," she says. "This shows that paternal care goes very deep in our primate lineage."4. What moved the scientists according to the first two paragraphs? _ A.
15、 Young gorillas' being abandoned.B. Kubaha's caring for the infants.C. Young gorillas' sleeping in uncle's nest.D. Young gorillas' climbing over their uncle.5. What is the life of motherless gorillas like? _ A. Little trouble of survival.B. Risk of dying young.C. Loss of social s
16、tatus.D. Inability to reproduce.6. How did the researchers test their assumption about orphaned gorillas? _ A. They focused on adult gorillas' data.B. They collected online information.C. They tracked their companions.D. They lived with them.7. What does the underlined word "altruistic"
17、; in the last paragraph probably mean? _ A. carelessB. fearlessC. harmlessD. selflessCSoccer legend: They told me girls couldn't play this game Note: Michelle Akers was a player on the US Women's National Teams who won World Cup titles in 1991(where she won the Golden Hoot as top scorer) and
18、 1999. ( CNN) - In third grade, I shared my dream along with my favorite football with the class, and as I proudly finished my speech, my teacher responded, "Michelle, girls cannot play football" to which I answered, "Yes, I can." I wouldn't let it go, landing myself in the p
19、rincipal's office, trying not to cry. Soon, my mom arrived. "God help me now," I thought until I heard her say to both my teacher and the principal, "How dare you tell my daughter what she can or cannot do." On Wednesday,all the world (myself included) will watch(he 2019 US W
20、omen's National Team - Women's World Cup champions. I'm also thinking about how they - like I - got to the place where they lifted that trophy (奖杯).To me, the 2019 World Cup and above all, this team, has taken the stories and dreams of the USWNT full circle. It goes like this: First, you
21、 dream. Next, you play. Then, you inspire a legacy. So many years ago, I dreamed of being a Pittsburgh Steeler. But many of the players on this 2019 World Champion USA Team sat in stadiums or watched games on TV in 1999 and dreamed of playing for the USWNT. No one could tell them they couldn't -
22、 they could see for themselves that it was possible. They have now not only won a World Cup,but have turned their dreams into action. Dreams of being the best in the world. Dreams of equality and equal opportunity. And the actions to back them up and make them real for the people who come after them
23、. They are demanding respect and equality from the powers that be because they know what it is to achieve more than just a trophy. That, for me, is so very powerful. What this 2019 World Champion team demands for themselves - and put first in their lives - will be their biggest message of change: Re
24、spect. Equal opportunity. Team and family. Individual choice. Excellence. Into a new era. And I am grateful to be celebrating them in their much deserved ticker-tape parade in the Canyon of Heroes in NYC.8. What's the attitude of Michelle's mom towards her dream? _ A. Funny.B. Supportive.C.
25、Ambiguous.D. Carefree.9. What can we infer from Paragraph 2 about the 2019 Women's World Cup? _ A. Michelle is coaching and encouraging the team.B. Michelle together with her team won the trophy.C. The team carries the same dreams as Michelle'sD. The team didn't fail Michelle's great
26、 expectation.10. What happened to Michelle during her football career? _ A. She set an example to women football players.B. She won the Golden Boot in 1999.C. She retired from her team in 2019.D. She recognized inequality to women in football.11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for th
27、e text? _ A. Dream, Play and InspireB. Woman Football DevelopsC. Football Counts More than EverD. Equal Playing Field Is More than Men'sDIn an economy where data is changing how companies create value - and compete - experts predict that using artificial intelligence(AI)at a larger scale will ad
28、d as much as 15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030. As AI is changing how companies work, many believe that who docs this work will change, too - and that organizations will begin to replace human employees with intelligent machines. This is already happening: intelligent systems are displacin
29、g humans in manufacturing, service delivery, recruitment, and the financial industry, consequently moving human workers towards lower-paid jobs or making them unemployed. This trend has led some to conclude that in 2040 our workforce may be totally unrecognizable. Are humans and machine really in co
30、mpetition with each other though? The history of work - particularly since the Industrial Revolution - is the history of people transferring their labor to machines. While that began with rote, repetitive physical tasks like weaving, machines have evolved to the point where they can now do what we m
31、ight think of as complex cognitive work, such as math equations, recognizing language and speech, and writing. Machines thus seem ready to reproduce the work of our minds, and not just our bodies. In the 21st century, AI is evolving to be superior to humans in many tasks, which makes that we seem re
32、ady to transfer our intelligence to technology. With this latest trend, it seems like there's nothing that can't soon be automated, meaning that no job is safe from being offloaded to machines. This vision of the future of work has taken the shape of a zero-sum game,in which there can only b
33、e one winner. We believe, however, that this view of the role AI will play in the workplace is wrong. The question of whether AI will replace human workers assumes that AI and humans have the same qualities and abilities -but, in reality, they don't. AI-based machines are fast, more accurate, an
34、d consistently rational, but they aren't intuitive, emotional, or culturally sensitive. And, it's exactly these abilities that humans possess and which make us effective.12. How does AI influence human life according to Paragraph 1? _ A. It increases huge economic costs.B. It dominates compa
35、ny's future.C. It makes workforce totally unnecessary.D. It changes traditional working ways.13. What point have machines evolved to today? _ A. Doing repetitive work.B. Doing physical tasks.C. Doing translation work.D. Doing reproducing tasks.14. Which sides are involved in the zero-sum game? _
36、 A. AI-based machine and humans.B. Minds and bodies.C. Future and past.D. Imagination and Reality.15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? _ A. AI plays a vital role in the workplace.B. Human has its own advantages over AI.C. AI and humans have the same qualities.D. AI is sure to replace humans
