Section B
Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The South Korean Lee Se-Dol took on an artificially intelligent computer program called Alpha Go created by DeepMind, a British company owned by Google. In the series of matches in Seoul, the machine is winning.
The victories have a human mastermind in Demis Hassabis, co-founder and chief executive of DeepMind. He describes Mr. Lee as the “Roger Federer of Go”, and for some the computer program’s achievement is akinto a robot taking to the lawns of Wimbledon and beating the legendary tennis champion.
“I think it is pretty huge but, ultimately, it will be for history to judge,” says Mr. Hassabis, speaking to the Financial Times from Seoul, where the matches are taking place. “Many people predicted it was at least a decade away so we’re thrilled to have achieved this milestone.” The 39-year-old has long dreamt about the victory. But his ambitions stretch beyond the Go board. His aim is to make “machines smart”.
Mr. Hassabis was introduced to artificial intelligence while studying computer science as an undergraduate at Cambridge University. Lecturers insisted on teaching “narrow” AI, where programmers attach “labels” to data for a computer to make sense of information.
At DeepMind, engineers have created programs based on neural networks, modelled on the human brain. These systems make mistakes, but learn and improve over time. They can be set to play other games and solve other tasks, so the intelligence is general, not specific. This AI “thinks” like humans do.
Games are an ideal way to test such AI programs, allowing researchers to measure performance against set goals. And Mr. Hassabis is ideally placed to train the computer. A chess master by age 13 and a competitor at the Mind Sports Olympiad, he is remembered for dashing between matches to battle various competitors at once. Organizers have described him as “probably the best games player in history”.
Go is the “holy grail” for AI. The game originated 2,500 years ago in China, is played by 40m people worldwide and has 1,000 professional players.
“I know how to play Go well enough to be able to appreciate its beauty,” Mr. Hassabis says. “But it is not one of the games I’m strong at, so I’ve not actually played Alpha Go myself as it surpassed my ability almost from the beginning.”
For Mr. Hassabis, creating machines that beat humans in games is just a testing ground before unleashing DeepMind’s technology on “real world challenges like making smartphone assistants smarter, and further in the future, using it to help scientists solve some of society’s most pressing problems in healthcare and other areas”.
56. Which can we infer from the passage?
A. South Korean Lee Se-Dol was beaten by the program DeepMind.
B.Roger Federer is a Go champion.
C. Mr. Hassabis’s team members were excited to reach the goal.
D. Mr. Hassabis once studied artificial intelligence as a major.
57. The underlined word “akin” is closest in meaning to________ ?
A. owing B. similar C. devoted D. responsed
58. Which is NOT among the features of “AI”?
A. Being smart and thoughtful like human beings.
B. Adapting to the errors that once faced with.
C. Using fixed intelligence to work out further social problems.
D. Being superior to human abilities to some extends.
59. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. Alpha Gohas seized the secrets of Go completely.
B. Mr. Hassabis feels ashamed of the performance gap between him and AI.
C. DeepMind is still making efforts to benefit human’s future.
D. The machine-and-human games are step stones to solving social problems practically.

Brain-training software may be a waste of time. People who played “mind-boosting” games made the same modest cognitive gains as those who spent a similar amount of time surfing the web. “It didn’t really make any difference what people did,” says Adrian Owen of the Medical Research Council Cognition, who tested brain-training software on volunteers recruited through a BBC television program.
Owen and his colleagues asked 11 000 volunteers to take tests to measure their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial(空间的) memory. Participants then spent six weeks playing on one of two computer programs, or just surfing the web for pleasure. In one program, which imitates commercial brain-training software, the volunteers solved simple mathematics problems and puzzles that tested their memories. The other was designed specifically to boost cognitive abilities such as reasoning and planning.
After six weeks, the participants underwent a second round of cognitive tests. Both groups who played the games made modest improvements, yet so did the web surfers. Skills learned via the programs didn’t transfer to the cognitive tests, even when they relied on similar abilities, says Owen. For instance, people who played a game in which they had to find a match for a briefly overturned card struggled at a similar test that used stars “hidden” in boxes. “Even when the tests were conceptually quite similar we didn’t see any improvement,” says Owen. He concludes that brain-training software only makes people better at the specific tasks they have been practicing.
Yet Klingberg, who founded a cognitive-training firm called Cogmed, is indignant at the conclusion that all brain training is bunk. The participants in Owen’s study didn’t practice for long enough and there was no quality control over what practice people did, he says. “Asking subjects to sit at home and do tests online, perhaps with the TV on or other distractions around, is likely to result in noisy data,” he says. “This paper does in no way disprove that the brain is plastic or that cognitive functions can be improved by training.” Owen counters that his team’s research took place in settings similar to the ones people are likely to practice in. “This is what people are doing. They’re sitting at home on their computers doing brain training.”
63. The purpose of Owen recruiting volunteers to do the first round of tests is to __________.
A. test their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial memory
B. support the BBC television program in his way
C. prove how much information participants can remember
D. detect differences among people in memorizing information
64. From the second round of cognitive tests, Owen concludes that __________.
A. all participants have made much recognizable improvement dramatically
B. participants have developed reasoning ability to solve complicated problems
C. participants can make greater improvement in solving very similar problems
D. participants do a better job in specific tasks they have practiced for a long time
65. What’s the meaning of “indignant”?
A. Satiric. B. Agreeable. C. Mad. D. Dishonest.
66. Which of the following best describes the passage as a whole?
A. There is a debate about whether brain-training software is effective.
B. We should concentrate on brain-training software in our daily life.
C. Brain-training software is useless to most people.
D. It is important to improve reasoning ability and spatial memory.

ІV. Summary Writing (10%)
Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Our tale begins two decades ago, when a group of Dutch women set out to find an explanation for the antisocial behavior of the males in their family. As well as having learning difficulties, these men and boys were likely to outbursts of aggression and were racking up a list of serious offences, including murder. Suspecting that the behavior might be hereditary(遗传性的), the women approached geneticist Hans Brunner at the University Hospital in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Eventually, in 1993, he tracked down the crime: a dead variant (变种)of a gene called monoamine oxidase A, (单胺氧化酶A)(MAOA), located on the X chromosome.
Understandably, the announcement created a sensation. It was the first time a gene had been linked lo human aggression and MAOA seemed to be responsible for a history of violence stretching back five generations.
In the following years, evidence poured in to support the connection between MAOA and aggression. Then, in 2004, journalist Ann Gibbons sealed the link by giving MAOA the headline-friendly label “warrior gene”. The nickname stuck, raising the profile of MAOA, and at the same time making misconceptions about how our behavior is affected by our genetic make-up.
Explaining the interaction between genes and behavior is one of the toughest tasks in biology. The publication of the entire human genetic code, a decade ago, dispelled any illusions that having the genetic blueprint of our species would give a clear insight into our nature. Instead, what became clear is that we have far fewer genes than anyone imagined, and that understanding how these shape us as individuals is going to be a huge task.
Genes simply make proteins. So far behavioral geneticists the question is how, when and why they influence our behavior. Clearly, this involves a complex tango (探戈) between genes and environments. Working out the exact steps is very difficult, and conveying the findings to those without a scientific background is just as problematic.

VI. Guided Writing (基准分14.5分例文16分)
Dear Sir,
I am a resident here and I am writing to express my strong objection to the reconstruction of the Parking lot taking the place of the precious tennis court.
As you can see, many neighbors in our community enjoy playing tennis in the court, from young to old. We also go jogging around it every morning and some old ladies dance square dances here in the evening. How important the court is in our daily life! But if it is changed into a parking lot, more cars will go through the roads nearby, which may threaten the safety of the old. The cost is rather high. I understand the problem of tight parking spaces, but the tennis court may not be the best place for construction. Neighbors’ safety and convenience should be consider first.
Therefore, I sincerely hope you can take my suggestions into account.
Thanks!
Yours sincerely
Daisy
