Unlike other online courses that film teachers giving classes, Khan’s video only use his voice and a digital blackboard for waiting. He says he doesn’t want a human face to distract students. Khan also makes his classes as short as 10 to 15 minutes so that students won’t lose interest. They can also earn (获得) points from taking these classes.

The courses are translated into more than 36 different languages including Chinese. About 80 teachers from the world’s top universities are now also teaching on the website. But all this started nine years ago when Salman Khan created the website all by himself. These kinds of special courses make Khan Academy one of the world’s most popular online websites.

He himself has three degrees (学位) from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one from Harvard. He wants to use his knowledge to help more people. Thus, his courses are all offered for free. “Our mission(任务)is to provide a free, world -class education for everyone, anywhere” he said.

25、   Early last year, a French art group known as Obvious stated that their artificial intelligence（AI）had managed to "create" art. Christie's (佳士得拍卖行) was expecting less than $ 10,000. In the end, it was sold at $ 432,500!

The painting was the first piece of AI art to have been sold at auction (拍卖). Soon questions rang through the media: Is this art? Who is the artist? How about the owner? Are machines now creative, too?

All good questions——but too early. The technology is far from advanced, as Obvious suggested, because the public is completely confused about what AI is, and what it is able to do.

In fact? The painting was just one of the countless artworks AI could produce. It was the team behind Obvious that chose this one. And they got involved in the whole process. They first programed (编写程序) the AI, and then they chose 15,000 existing paintings to train the software. Connecting the painting with the algorithm (计算程序) was just a clever marketing tool. AI did not produce the painting on its own at all.

Dozens of artists are using the same software as Obvious, but none of them are worried about being replaced. As they build the machine themselves and work with it every day, they know how limited it is. What interests the artists is co-creation: the way AI lets them go beyond their natural ability.

Artists also laugh at the idea that AI is creative. It certainly creates things, sometimes in new and effective ways, but it does so without a purpose. It is the artist who explains its output (输出). “You make a fire and produces interesting shapes, but in the end the fire is not creative. AI is a glorified (美化了的) campfire," said one of the pioneers of using AI in art.

【1】What can we know about the painting sold at auction?

A.It was created by a French artist alone.

B.It was sold at a much lower price than expected.

C.It was the first piece of AI art in the world.

D.It attracted a great deal of media attention.

【2】Paragraph 4 mainly talks about ________.

A.what kind of paintings AI could create alone

B.How AI produced the painting in its own way

C.Why the painting was connected with the algorithm

D.who made it possible for AI to create the painting

【3】It can be inferred from the passage that the AI technology can ________.

A.produce countless artworks B.program on its own

C.think independently D.replace the artists

26、Tea bag drinking is most westerners’ favorite way of drinking tea. Do you know how it came about?

The tea bag was invented in 1908 by Thomas Sullivan, an American tea seller. He was sending out free tea in silk bags for people to try. People put the bags together with the tea leaves into the cup and added hot water. The tea tasted good, and people thought it was easy to clean the cup. They were not happy when Sullivan started sending them loose （散的） tea again.

Sullivan realized that he had a hot new thing in his hands, and he built a machine to pack the bags. As tea bags became popular, they were changed from silk to gauze （薄纱） and later paper. In 1952, Lipton Tea made the tea bag even more popular with its invention of the four-sided tea bag. Tea bags were soon a hit in the UK, and today 85% of the tea in the UK is packed in paper bags.

However, many people still prefer loose-leaf tea. This is because some tea companies put not very good tea in their tea bags. But for most drinkers, tea bags are still the easy, tasty way to go.

【1】Who invented the tea bag?

A．An English tea seller.   B．Chinese.

【3】This sentence “today 85% of the tea in the UK is packed in paper bags.” tells us ________.

A．Most drinkers in the UK prefer loose-leaf tea.

B．Most drinkers in the UK prefer tea bags.

C．A quarter of the drinkers in the UK prefer loose-leaf tea.

D．A quarter of the drinkers in the UK dislike tea bags.

A．clever B．stupid C．lazy   D．busy

A．The invention of tea

B．The way of drinking tea

27、Students from Sugg Middle School wore blue aprons (围裙) and washed the potatoes before the bell rang. They were preparing a festival meal. For most of the students it was their first “real kitchen ” experience.
