昆虫的神经系统能获取并将感官性信息转换为记忆，控制其行为来完成如觅食这样的复杂任务，动物学家通过研究这一过程，寻求其对未来机器学习和人工智能的启发。

13. Zoologists studied the nervous systems of insects to investigate principles of biological brain computation and possible effects on machine learning and artificial intelligence. Specifically, they analysed how insects learn to associate sensory information in their environment with a food reward, and how they can recall this information later in order to solve complex tasks such as the search for food.
Living organisms show remarkable abilities in coping with problems posed by complex and dynamic environments. They are able to generalize their experiences in order to rapidly adapt their behaviour when the environment changes. The zoologists investigated how the nervous system of the fruit fly controls its behaviour when searching for food.
Using a computer model, they simulated(模拟) and analysed the computations in the fruit fly’s nervous system in response to scents coming from the food source. They initially trained their model of the fly brain in exactly the same way as insects are trained in experiments. They presented a specific scent in the simulation together with a reward and a second scent without a reward.
“The model rapidly learns a strong representation of the rewarded scent after just a few scent presentations and is then able to find the source of
this scent in a complex environment,” said computer scientist Dr Hannes Rapp, who created the model.
The model created is thus capable of generalizing from its memory and to apply what it has learned previously in a completely new and complex environment, while learning required only a very small database of training samples.
The results suggest that the transformation of sensory information into memories in the brain can inspire future machine learning and artificial intelligence applications to solving complex tasks.
1. What is the aim of the research?
A．To analyse the application of biological brain computation principles.
B．To seek promotion of machine learning and artificial intelligence.
C．To shed light on how the nervous systems of insects work.
D．To uncover how insects apply sensory information in search of food.
2. Which statement about the research method is NOT TRUE?
A．The researchers collected the data by using a computer model.
B．The researchers focused on how the fruit fly’s nervous system reacts to scents.
C．The researchers trained the model in the same way as training fruit flies.
D．The researchers presented two different scents to carry out a control experiment.
3. What do the results of the research imply?
A．Insects’ nervous systems are more sensitive to particular scents.
B．Artificial intelligence is significant to biological brain research.
C．Sensory information is widely applied in machine learning.
D．Research on insect brain can contribute to AI development.
4. What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To present predictions about the future of machine learning.
B．To illustrate the method and findings of a scientific study.
C．To call on more research on insect brain and behavior.
D．To introduce a practical method of insect research.

本文主要介绍了心理学家的一项EC理论表明，我们不是只有大脑负责人类的认知，我们的身体也负责思考或者解决问题。

更准确的说思想塑造身体，身体同等程度地塑造思想。

15. Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition(认知)? What about our body? Is it possible for thought and behaviour to originate from somewhere other than our brain? Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition(EC)ask similar questions. The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving. More precisely, the mind shapes the body and the body shapes the mind in equal measure.
If you think about it for a moment, it makes total sense. When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds, certain emotions are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs – they don’t feel sad, they’re just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers’ heartbeats, and this has a calming effect. In the real world, they cry when they’re cold and then get hugged. That way, they start to associate being warm with being loved.
Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction. In one experiment, test subjects were asked to judge people after being handed a hot or a cold drink. They all made warm evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness. And it works the other way too. In another study, subjects’ fingertip temperatures were measured after being “included” in or “rejected” from a group task. Those who were included felt physically warmer.
For further proof, we can look at the metaphors(比喻)that we use without even thinking. A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a rock. And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.
Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not use it? If you’re having a bad day, a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure. If you know you’re physically cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisions.
1. According to the author, what is the significance of EC?
A．It brings us closer to the truth in human cognition.
B．It offers a clearer picture of the shape of human brain.
C．It reveals the major role of the mind in human cognition.
D．It facilitates our understanding of the origin of psychology.
2. Where does the newborns’ understanding of their surroundings start from?
A．Their personal looks.B．Their mental needs.
C．Their inner emotions.D．Their physical feelings.
3. What does the author intend to prove by citing the metaphors in Paragraph 4?
A．Human speech is alive with metaphors.
B．Human senses have effects on thinking.
C．Human language is shaped by visual images.
D．Human emotions are often compared to natural materials.
4. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A．To deepen the readers’ understanding of EC.
B．To encourage the reader to put EC into practice.
C．To guide the reader onto the path to career success.
D．To share with the reader ways to release their emotions.
