PositiveCTrees，some of the tallest in the world，towered above Hannah Ginffiths and her colleagues each morning as they walked deep into the rainforest in the Maliau Basin in Bomeo，where they had set up a set of experiments to look at the ecological effects of small creatures ：termites（白蚁）．Termites get a bum rap．They make headlines for chewing up billions of dollars of property each year in the U．S．And they are responsible for something like two percent of global carbon emissions，simply as a result of their huge populations and preference for chewing through carton-rich materials．A whole industry is aiming at killing them．But they play a key role in many natural ecosystems．Scientists have known for years that in tropical （热带的）forests，termites chew up fallen leaves and dead wood，keeping h fallen material under control and letting nutrients from the dead material back into the system to be used by other plants，insects，and animals．But they didn't know exactly how important the insects were in keeping the forest healthy and functional，so whey remove termites from aparticular spot in the forest and saw how it responded．As luck would have it．Hannah Griffiths and her colleagues started their experiment when the forest was hit by an extreme drought （干旱）．During the non-drought years，they saw there wasn't much difference between the normal plots and the ones where they'd removed the termites．But during the drought，the effects were marked．What they found was unexpected：in the termite-rich areas，the soil stayed slightly wet，more tree seedlings sprouted （抽芽），and the system was full of activity despite the long，hard dry spell．For Griffiths，it was only because they happened to study the drought that they could pick out the real importance of termites to the system，she points out．"And that rings alarm bells in my head，" she says，"because it makes me think，well，what else don t we know？If we start damaging biological communities，we don't know what that will do．"8.Which of the following best explains "a bum rap" underlined in Paragraph 2？______A.

They speed up the loss of nutrition in the rainforest10.What can we infer from the finding of Griffiths' experiment？______A. Termites help rainforests survive climate changeB. Termites prefer drought years to non-drought onesC. Termites benefit more from the forest during the droughtD. Termites enjoy eating tree seedlings during the drought．11.What does Griffiths tell us in the last paragraph？______A. Termites are now in danger of extinctionB. Termites damage biological communities．C. We should think twice before damaging a speciesD. we should study the drought to improve the systemDClassifying things is critical for our daily lives．For example，we have to detect spam mail （垃圾邮件），false political news．When we use AI，such tasks are based on "classification technology" in machine earning-having the computer learn，using the boundary separating positive and negative data．For example，"positive" data would be photos including a happy face，and "negative" data photos that include a sad face．Once a classification boundary is learned，the computer can determine whether a certain data is positive or negative．However，the difficulty with his technology is that it requires both positive and negative data for the learning process，and negative data are not available in many cases．For instance，when a retailer （零售商）is trying to predict who will make a purchase，they can easily find data on customers who have purchased from them（positive data，but it is basically impossible to obtain data on customers who have never purchased from them（negative data ），since they do not have access to their competitors' data．According to lend author Takashi Ishida from RIKEN AIP，"Previous classification methods could not cope with the situation where negative data were not available，but we have made it possible for computers to learn with only positive data，as long as we have a confidence score for our positive data，constructed from information such as buying intention or the active rate of app users．Using our new method，we can let computers learn a classifier only frompositive data equipped with confidence．"According to Ishida．"This discovery could expand the range of applications where classification technology can be used．Even in fields where machine learning has been actively used，our classification technology could be used in new situations where only positive data can be gathered due to data regulation or business constraints（限制）．In the near future，we hope to put our technology to use in various research fields，such as natural language processing，computer vision，robotics，and bioinformatics．"12.How can the computer distinguish the positive data from the negative data？______A. By learning the classification boundary．B. By updating the data collected regularly．C. By separating happy faces and sad ones．D. By introducing classification technology．13.Why is the example mentioned in Paragraph 2？______A. To prove how important the positive data areB. To confirm that data on customers are completeC. To argue that retailers get their competitors' dataD. To explain why negative data are hard to acquire．14.What do the underlined words "new method" in Paragraph 3 refer to？______A. Analyzing buying intentionB. Building a confidence scoreC. Assessing the active rate of app usersD. Equipping the computer with confidence．15.What can be a suitable title for the text？______A. The History of Classification TechnologyB. Smarter Al：Machine Learning without Negative DataC. Bigger Data：Computers Assisting Language ProcessingD. The Comparison between Positive Data and Negative Data二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）What's the purpose of building patience abilities？In a word，happiness．Better relationships，more success．But indeed it takes effort to build them successfully．(1) Thus，when the big ones come，we will have developed the patience we need for hard times．Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience．We，human beings，are still constructed with our old reptilian（爬行动物似的）brain that protects our physical and emotional survival．On the emotional survival side，we want our way to get ahead，to achieve，to "look good．" Let's just face it．(2) So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience-anger，impatience，blaming and shaming．We all have them．And we can grow beyond them．Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain．Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions-we try to change the other person，situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort．But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that's the source of our pain，but how our mind is set．(3)Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts．Most of us don't really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest-but very present-painful feelings．(4) But to really care for ourselves，get curious about what's actually happening in the moment inside you．Focusing on what's actually happening，you can notice the worry of not wanting what 's happening，the resistance．(5) When you find yourself impatient，or angry with yourself，you can remind yourself that you are growing，and that，"Sure，this is understandable；this is what happens to me whenI'm bothered．" You can say to yourself，" It's true．I don't like this；this is uncomfortable，but I can tolerate it．A．Practice positive self-talk．B．So the solution to pain is an inside job．C．Patience abilities benefit you in many ways．D．Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times．E．we ignore the fact that we're in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem．F．The urge to protect ourselves and what we consider valuable is absolutely habit-forming．G．Effective ways are recommended to train ourselves to work with little pains and annoyances．16.
