Artificial intelligence: Google’s AlphaGo beats Go master Lee Se-dol
A computer program has beaten a master Go player 3-0 in a best-of-five competition, in what is seen as a landmark moment for artificial intelligence (人工智能).
Google‟s AlphaGo program was playing against Lee Se-dol in Seoul, in South Korea.
Mr Lee had been confident he would win before the competition started.
“AlphaGo played consistently (稳定地) from beginning to the end while Lee, as he is only human, showed some mental weakness,” one of Lee‟s coaches, Kwon Kap-Yong, told the AFP news agency.
Mr Lee is considered as a successful Go player, having won many competitions in his career.
Go is a game of two players who take turns putting black or white stones on a 19-by-19 grid (棋格). Players win by surrounding their competitors pieces with their own.
In the first game of the series (系列赛), AlphaGo won by a very small chance – Mr Lee had led for most of the match, but AlphaGo managed to build up a strong lead in its closing stages.
After losing the second match to DeepMind, Lee Se-dol said he was “speechless” adding that the AlphaGo machine
played a “nearly perfect game”.
Experts said that Lee Se-dol had brought his “top game”but that AlphaGo had won “in great style”.
The AlphaGo system was developed by British computer company DeepMind which was bought by Google in 2014. It has built up its special skills by studying older games and teasing out so many kinds of ways of play. And, according to DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis, it has also spent a lot of time just playing the game.
“It played itself, millions and millions of times and each time got a little better –it learns from its mistakes,” he told the BBC before the matches started.
This good circle of continuous improvement meant the super computer went into the five-match series stronger than when it beat the European player late last year.
Does this mean artificial intelligence is now smarter than us and will kill us humans? Certainly not. AlphaGo doesn‟t care if it wins or loses. Does it mean that artificial intelligence will soon take your job? Possibly you should be more worried about that.
1．What had Lee Se-dol thought about the competition before it started?
A．He would beat AlphaGo.
B．AlphaGo would lead the match.
C．It was hard to tell who would win.
D．AlphaGo would have some weakness.
2．What happened in the first game of the series?
A．Mr Lee won by a very small chance.
B．AlphaGo had led for most of the match.
C．Mr Lee was beaten by AlphaGo finally.
D．AlphaGo built up a strong lead at the beginning.
3．What does the underlined phrase “teasing out” probably mean?
A．Giving out. B．Working out.
C．Running out. D．Pointing out.
4．The writer may agree that ______ in the future.
A．human will be killed by artificial intelligence
B．artificial intelligence will do everyt hing for human
C．people might lose jobs because of artificial intelligence
D．artificial intelligence will be much smarter than human

15、Money in the Bank
“Jamila, I ju st found a five-dollar bill on the table,” said Mrs.Johnson. “Is that your money?” Jamila looked up from the book she was reading. “Oops. I emptied my pockets before I left for soccer practice yesterday. I was running late, so I didn’t have time to take the money up to my room.” Jamila’s mom handed her the bill and watched as her daughter placed it in her book.
Jamila went back to read. A moment later, she heard her mother give a deep sigh(叹息). “Jamila, you just put that money in your book. I’m quite sure that you won’t be able to find it when you need it. You are working so hard to save for a new bicycle. I don’t want you to lost any of your hard-earned(辛苦挣得的) money. Don’t you have a piggybank?”
Jamila nodded. “I have one, but the key doesn’t work and I can’t get the money out. Some of my money is in a
jar(罐子) on my desk. Some is in a box on my bed. I might also have some in other books.”
Mrs.Johnson smiled at Jamila. “It looks like it’s time for you to get your own bank account(账户)，” she said. “Do you want to go to the bank with me?”
Jamila jumped up. “Will the account be in my own name?” she asked excitedly.
“Of course,” answered her mom. “You might be surprised by how much you have when your money is all in one place. At least you’ll know where it all is.”
At the bank, Jamila and her mother opened a savings account. The banking manager explained how the money in the savings account would earn interest. The longer the money stayed in the account, the more interest it would earn.
Jamila was surprised to learn that she could earn money just by saving her money in a savings account. “I wish I had done this a long time ago,” she winked at her mom. “Maybe I’d have already saved enough to buy my bike.”1．Where did Jamila put the money after her mother handed it to her?
A．In her pocket. B．In a piggybank.
C．In a jar. D．In her book.
2．Mrs.Johnson thought Jamila should have a bank account because _______.
A．it could encourage Jamila to work harder for her new bicycle
B．Jamila put money everywhere and might lose some of it
C．the money in a savings account could earn interest
D．Jamila spent much more than she earned
3．How did Jamila feel when she knew she could earn money by sawing money in the bank?
A．Sorry. B．Proud. C．Surprised. D．Confused.

6 Apr Hue is really a beautiful city with lots to see, and I would love to stay longer. Vietnam is an amazing country, with big modern cities and small traditional towns,
mountains and forests. Two weeks here just isn't enough.
4 Apr Now we're in the old capital city of Hue. After hiking around the mountains, it's nice to have a shower! Our trip to Sapa was long. From there, we took a coach to a small village in the mountains, and we went hiking for three days. The hill tribe people in Vietnam live a basic life — no electricity or telephones. They don't have much money, but they are the kindest people I've ever met. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Vietnamese, so smiling is the best way.
28 Mar We visited some temples in the city. The pagodas* and the Buddha statues are wonderful. Then we went to a market in Cholon, and saw different kinds of fruits and vegetables. Everything was so colourful, and we took hundreds of photographs!
Tomorrow we will catch a bus to Sapa. We will go hiking in the mountains.
26 Mar Hi everybody,
Greetings from Vietnam! We arrived here, tired but excited. All the different sights and smells make us curious to try the food. We are going to eat Vietnamese food for dinner tonight. We plan to stay here in Ho Minh City for a few days.

The owners are often blamed when pets put on a few pounds. But experts say that in many cases fat dogs and cats are `emotional eaters`(借食消愁). They also eat more than they need simply to deal with boredom or stress, research has found. That means, if they have gained weight, it could be because they have been through a traumatic(造成心灵创伤的)or an emotional event.
New studies have also suggested that putting an overweight cat or dog on a diet could make them unhappy. The study shows the obesity(肥胖)rate is as much as 25 percent in cats, and 45 percent in dogs.
The problem has been likened to that of Bridget Jones, the singleton(单身)who hides away from her troubled love life by eating, with vets(兽医)believing some pets use food to deal with sadness, according to The Sunday Telegraph.
Comfort eating in humans tends to involve high calorie foods which the individual chooses, including ice cream, and chocolate.
But research shows animals are less fussy(挑剔的), and will go on a comfort binge(大吃大喝)even if the only food on offer is their usual dog or cat food.
He said emotional eating in pets, could be caused by feelings including boredom, anxiety and depression(抑郁).
But the research has also suggested overeating could also be a sign of enjoyable emotional state, as well as a bad mood. 1．Who will be often blamed when pets gain weight?
A．Pets. B．The owners. C．Vets. D．Experts.
2．Why did pets eat too much according to the passage?

18、Here are some great beach spots for your family to have some fun together.
■Galadesi Beach, Florida
To be honest, you'll hardly be alone here. Caladesi Island State Park is home to hundreds of birds nesting(栖息) among the sunflower-flecked small hills of sand. On the other hand, there is not a parking space in sight.
How to Get There: The park, off the west coast, can be gotten to by boat from Honeymoon Island State Park.
■Ruby Beach, Washington
Ruby Beach feels almost mythical(神话的),especially at low tide and in the fog. The rocks there are strange-looking, and the pools can be surprising, too
How to Get There: There's a sign seven miles north of Kalaloch on Hwy, 101. From the parking lot, follow the path through the trees, down a decline, then toward the water.
■Pfeiffer Beach, California
The rocks there are amazing. In some places, the sand is a light shade of purple. Sure, it can get windy, but that's a small price to pay for paradise.
How to Get There: The turn off is actually just past the Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park entrance, at Sycamore Canyon Rd. Drive two miles to the beach, and then walk 10 minutes north to Deer Canyon. There's no sign, but you'll know it when you see it.
■High Bar Harbor, New Jersey
It sits on Long Beach Island, one of the most popular Jersey shores. But watch the water when the tide(潮汐）comes in, you may not be able to leave until the tide goes.
How to Get There: Take Long Beach Blvd. north into the town of Barnegat Light and turn left on 20th St. ,a. k. a. Auburn Road Go a 1/3 of a mile, and then turn right at the Y-shaped crossing onto Sunset Blvd. Take it to the end. You'll see a footpath( 脚印）to the beach.

19、How to Protect Our Lives
It is very important for us to know how to treasure and protect our lives.
First of all, we should obey the traffic rules and pay attention to traffic safety.
Secondly, we should not chase and fight in school. Don't climb trees, don't play dangerous games.
Thirdly, we should eat some healthy foods, such as vegetables, fruits, and so on. They are able to help us maintain a
healthy body.
Finally, a good sleep can also assure us a healthy body. We should sleep seven to eight hours a day to maintain adequate sleep.
If we can learn to treasure and protect ourselves, I believe we can have a healthy body and a better life.。
