22、   In some ways, every book is about the body. No one lives apart from theirs, and here are the books in my favorite list.

The Body in Pain: The Making and Unmaking of the World by Elaine Scarry

An analysis of physical suffering that spans from philosophy to medicine, religion to literature, and art, The Body in Pain shows an expansive study of the ways that human beings faced pain and to live with and through it.

The Giant’s House by Elizabeth McCracken

This extraordinary novel about a small-town librarian named Peggy Court and the “over-tall” James Carlson Sweatt – who is six feet by age 11, then seven, and then eight – is a love story above all else. But it’s also an examination of the profound ways a body can connect you, and of how you can love a body even as it fails you.

The Two Kinds of Decay by Sarah Manguso

This bookturns the “illness narrative” inside out. A record of the years she spent with a rare and unpredictable blood disorder, the book displays an experience of illness in the language, shape, and timescale of sickness itself.

Teratology by Susannah Nevison

A poetry collection rooted in a series of birth disabilities that affect the author’s legs and feet, and in a lifetime of treatment, Nevison’s bookis an act of myth-making, meaning-making and survival. “If your daughter is born / and her legs aren’t made / for standing,” the collection begins – and a whole, extraordinary world unfolds.

23、The majority of Britons are educated in state schools, making up around 60% of those admitted to Oxford and Cambridge in 2013. Admissions at other leading universities were also weighted towards teenagers educated privately.

Then began a quiet revolution. The number of state-schooled pupils getting Oxbridge places has risen yearly; the number from private schools has fallen. The Russell Group of 24 leading universities says its members aim to admit more students from disadvantaged backgrounds.

A few things lie behind this change. The government has given cash to universities to reach underrepresented students and, since 2018, required them to publish plans showing how they are doing this. One report in 2018 showed that eight schools, six of which were private, accounted for more Oxbridge places than 2,900 other secondary schools combined.

Teach First, a scheme that sends clever graduates into tough schools for a couple of years, has also helped raise pupils, eagerness. It began in London, where the highest- performing state schools are concentrated.

All this has fueled a joint effort by schools and universities to make pupils consider the distinguished universities. For those state-school kids getting into top universities, extra help is needed. “You need to provide extra tutoring in the first year,” says Professor Smith from Oxford, who made efforts to admit state-school students before it became fashionable. She says they often do worse in exams at the end of the first year, but clean up in final exams.

That would seem to rebut one of the criticisms made of universities’ efforts to correct the state-private imbalance: that letting in more state-school students means standards will slip. “If you bring in people with diverse experiences and ways of thinking, who challenge one another’s assumptions, it promotes intellectual creativity and academic success,” says Helen, the principal of Mansfield College, Oxford.

“All this adds up to an important change,” says Lawrence. “Increasing numbers of state-school children are applying to universities in America and getting full scholarships.”

【1】What was the quiet revolution?

A．Admitting more poor students into top universities.

B．Getting state schools to cooperate with top universities.

C．Letting less private-school students into universities.

D．Having private schools take poor-background students.

【2】What is implied in the 2018 report?

A．State schools should promote their students’ academic reports.

B．Oxford and Cambridge preferred graduates from private schools.

C．Students in Oxbridge place high standard for their aims in life.

D．Oxbridge had a stricter admission standard than other universities.

【3】What can we infer about state-school students from Professor Smith’s words?

A．They get academic help from Teach First.

B．They become top students in a few years.

C．They need extra tutoring in the first term.

D．They are inspirations for other students.

【4】What does the underlined word ”rebut" mean in paragraph 6?

A．Support.

B．Expose.

C．Improve.

D．Oppose.

24、2017 was an influential year for artificial intelligence, not just in terms of the advancement of the technology itself, but also for the development of our understanding of AI’s influence on our society.

When we talk about AI, often we focus on the belief that it is going to take away certain types of jobs. However, we often ignore the fact that this technology will also slowly spread into most of our lives during work.

I refer to this as the difference between AI and IA: artificial intelligence vs. intelligence augmentation (智能增强). Despite the great steps we’ve made in AI development and will continue to make in 2018, we are still years away from AI fully replacing human jobs. However, we are much closer to seeing the influence of AI spread into almost every job and the growth in human intelligence.

Take a doctor for example: AI will soon be able to test and diagnose (诊断) common diseases more quickly and accurately than humans. Now, doctors can spend more of their time explaining the possible diagnoses, communicating with patients and developing unique, reliable treatment plans that are most effective for each specific patient.

Algorithms (算法) are desirable for their ability-to make well-informed decisions quickly and accurately, allowing us to focus on the parts of our job that are most important. But that same power allows algorithms that are making incorrect decisions to do so with greater speed and widespread influence than humans have ever had.

2018 will be the year that companies purchasing AI products don’t just ask about the predictive power of an algorithm-they will make sure that algorithms are tested in advance, greatly reducing their potential unexpected influence.

【1】What do most people mainly focus on AI?

A. AI can be completely controlled.

B. AI will replace certain human jobs.

C. AI is advanced technology.

D. AI will gradually spread into our lives.

【2】Why does the author mention the doctor?

A. To prove AI will make more doctors unemployed.

B. To prove AI always makes right decisions.

C. To prove AI will change the way we work.

D. To prove AI can make treatment plans.

【3】What is the author’s attitude towards AI and IA?

A. Objective.   B. Negative.

C. Optimistic.   D. Uninterested.

【4】What will probably the following paragraph refer to?

A. To tell the readers how AI can be closely controlled.

B. To compare the very difference between AI and I A.

C. To explain to us why an Algorithm is so important.

D. To predict the development of AI in the year of 2018.

25、Jeff Jensen was in a dilemma. The businessman and Boy Scout leader had difficulty in walking for painful nerve _______ in his leg and foot. He needed surgery, but he doubted whether he could _______ it, even with _______. “There’s nothing more _______ than seeing a bill for 12,024,000 dollars, ‘How much of this will my insurance _______ and how much is mine?’”Jensen told WWAY-TV.

Luckily for Jensen, his doctor is Demetrio Aguila. The nerve _______ gives patients in his clinic the option to pay for surgery through volunteer work. He calls it his M25 Program, _______ by the Bible verse (圣经诗句) at Matthew25 (马太福音第25章): “Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”

“We can’t _______ the people in our own backyard,” Aguila told CBS. “We want to be able to _______ hope to patients who have lost hope ________.”

Using an algorithm (算法), the ________ calculates community service hours based on the ________ of the surgery. In Jensen’s case, the $12,000 operation ________ 560 hours of helping out at one of the local charitable organizations ________ with the M25 Program.

Like 10 percent of Aguila’s patients, Jensen chose the community service. And because hundreds of hours of community service can seem frustrating, Aguila not only lets others help, but he encourages it. “I had this hope that we would reawaken in our neighbors and in ourselves a ________ of volunteerism,” he told CNN.

Jensen, whose surgery was ________ in February 2020, was helped by more than 100 friends and strangers who volunteered at Orphan Grain Train, which ________ food, clothing and medicine nationally and ________.
