A business school in Paris will soon begin using artificial intelligence and facial analysis to determine whether students are paying attention in class. The software, called Nestor, is used in two online classes at the ESG business school beginning in September.
The idea, according to LCA founder Marcel Saucet, is to use the data that Nestor collects to improve the performance of both students and professors. The software use students webcams (网络摄像机）to analyze eye movements and facial expressions and determine whether students are paying attention to a video lecture. It then formulates quizzes based on the content covered during moments of inattentiveness. Professors would also be able to identify moments when students’ attention waned (衰退),which could help to improve their teaching, Saucet says.
Advocates for AI in education say that the software is actually unable to teach a course， but the technology could be used as a digital tutor that would adapt to a student s individual needs，and help develop more effective studying habits. Such software could also help teachers by providing feedback on the effectiveness of their teaching, advocates say.
Saucet says Nestor won’t store any of the video footage it gets and that his company has no plans to sell any other data the software collects. In addition to facial recognition and analysis, the software can integrate (合并) with students’ calendars to suggest possible study times, and track their online behavior to pick up on patterns.
Rose Luckin, a professor at the University College London Knowledge Lab, says AI could unlock the “black box of learning” by providing information on how and when learning happens. Luckin says a program like Nestor could be useful for students who take classes remotely , since “there isn’t a human there watching them”. And while some are concerned that AI may one day replace teachers, Luckin sees the technology more as an assistant，r ather than a replacement. Saucet agrees. “Human contact is not going to go away,” he says. “There will always be professors.”
25. How does Nestor work to find out when students aren’t paying attention?
A. By collecting the data of students in different classes.
B. By analyzing eye movements and facial expressions.
C. By collecting the thoughts of students of the same age.
D. By identifying moments when students，attention waned.
26. Which is the benefit of AI education?
A. It could be used exactly as a tutor.
B. The software is able to teach a course in fact.
C. It helps to develop more effective studying habits.
D. It could help recycle teachers’ teaching.
27. How does Nestor deal with the information collected from students?
A. It’ll be kept from being stolen.
B. The company will sell the data to other corporations.
C. The company will sell the date to other corporations.
D. Nestor will use it for suggestion possible.
28. What can we learn from Rose Luckin’s words?
A. Nestor could help the students who take remote classes.
B. AI will finally replace teachers one day in the future.
C. AI could provide information on learning or people’s needs.
D. There would be no technology without human contacts.
C
Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals can’t talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.
Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator（猎食动物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt”
adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.
Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.
Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They don't make nests. Instead, they get into other birds’ nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.
Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly a gain. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner’s hand and start fighting again.
Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps don't hear them, and they don’t need to share their food.
As children, many of us learn the saying “You can’t fool Mother Nature.” But maybe you can’t trust her, either.
29. A plover protects its young from a predator by______.
A. getting closer to its young
B. driving away the adult predator
C. leaving its young in another nest
D. pretending to be injured
30. By “Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky” (paragraph5), the author means______.
A. chimps are ready to attack others
B. chimps are sometimes dishonest
C. chimps are jealous of the winners
D. chimps can be selfish too
31. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.
B. The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winner's hand.
C. Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests.
D. Some clever scrub jays often steal their food back.
32. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. Do animals lie?
B. Does Mother Nature fool animals?
C. How do animals learn to lie?
D. How does honesty help animals survive?
D
In the eighteenth century one of the first modern economists, Adam Smith, thought tha t “ the whole annual produce of the land and labor of every country” provided revenue to “three different orders of people: those who live by rent, those who live by wages, and those who live by profit”. Each successive stage of the industrial revolution,
Many intermediate groups grew up during the nineteenth century between the upper middle class and the working class. There were small-scale industrialists as well as large ones, small shopkeepers and tradesmen, officials and salaried employees, skilled and unskilled workers, and professional men such as doctors and teachers.
During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the possession of wealth inevitably affected a person’s social position. Intelligent industrialists with initiative made fortunes by their wits which lifted them into an economic group far higher than that of their working-class parents.
But they lacked social t raining of the upper class, who despised them as the “new
They often sent their sons and daughters to special schools to acquire social training. Here their children, mixed with the children of the upper classes, were accepted by them, and very often found marriage partners from among them. In the same way, a thrifty, hardworking laborer, though not clever himself, might save for his son enough to pay for an extended secondary school education in the hope that he would move in a “white-collar” occup ation, carrying with it a higher salary and a move up in the
In the twentieth century the increased taxation of higher incomes, the growth
of the social services, and the wider development of educational opportunity have considerably altered the social outlook. The upper classes no longer are the sole, or even the main possessors of wealth, power and education, though inherited social position still carries considerable prestige.
33. What criterion did Adam Smith seem to go by in his classification of social groups?
A. The amount of wealth
B. The amount of money
C. The social status
D. The way of getting money
34. In the 1st and 2nd paragraph, what groups of people did Adam leave out in his classification?
A. Officials and employees.
B. Peasants and farmers.
C. Doctors and teachers.
D. Tradesmen and landlords.
35. Who were the “new rich” during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries?
A. They were still the upper class people.
B. They were owners of large factories.
C. They were intelligent industrialists.
D. They were skilled workers who made their fortune.
36. In the 20th century, What have class differences been partly smoothed out by?
A. By increased income and decreased taxation.
B. By taxation, social services and educational opportunities.
C. By education, the increase of income and industrial development.
D. By the decrease of the upper class population.

When I graduated from college I dreamed of being a television news reporter. Having no experience, I had to work in a small town until I finally got my big break in the form of a job in Boston. I made it.
Soon, reality set in. I was too often sent to run after accused criminals out of courts, waiting outside of crime scene tape or at the doorstep of a family still crying for tragedy. My breaking point came the day I accidentally informed a young woman that her mother died. It was the worst day of my professional life and the day
I decided I no longer wanted to shine a light on these stories. My career was ebbing,
and at the same time my personal life was too-I divorced.
My mom had always told me “When you’re feeling extremely upset, go help someone else.” So I started seeking out stories of p eople who had been in the news under tragic circumstances but were doing something inspiring with their lives: a young
girl who was paralyzed (瘫痪的) by an accident but was uplifting her classmates with
her positive spirit, a blind and autistic (自闭的) musician who learned to play 27 instruments, a disabled soldier who opened his own art studio. I started to tell and promote stories like them.
Over the last 10 years I have discovered my kindness gift: my ability to see the beautiful side of a person and reflect it back to them and the world. In telling stories
of people turning their own hurt into acts of helping others I have become more sympathetic, more grateful and kinder. I have learned kindness is who we are, that
our power for it is limitless and that, as we shine a light on it, it grows.
37. What changed the author’s working direction in his job in Boston?
A. The tragedy in the society
B. The low payment of the job
C. The hurt from his divorce
D. The fear of cruel criminals
38. Wh at is the meaning of the underlined word “ebbing” in paragraph 2?
A. taking off
B. getting into trouble
C. unchangeable at all
D. dull but important
39. What does the author’s mother said mean?
A. Helping others is a way to escape from reality.
B. Helping others can comfort your soul.
C. The best way of helping others is telling stories.
D. It is difficult to make contributions to helping others.
40. According to the last paragraph, what does the author advise us to do?
A. To tell inspiring stories.
B. To fight against criminals.
C. To ignore our own hurt.
D. To do as much kindness as possible.
