AlphaGo has become famous all over the world after it beat South Korea’s top Go (围棋) player Lee Sedol in March, 2017. In the past, people thought computer programs couldn’t beat them in Go games. But AlphaGo did it. Google DeepMind in London developed it to play the board game Go.

In October, the latest AlphaGo came out on the Internet. Its name is “Master”. Then it beat some top Go players, including Park Jung-hwan from South Korea, Iyama from Japan and Ke Jie from China. “I was surprised,” Ke said after three games, “because it took every move almost within five seconds. It’s impossible that ‘Master’ is controlled by a person.” Aja Huang, the programmer of the company, said, “In the past few days, we have checked if it worked well during some online games. And we are still working hard to improve AlphaGo.”

AlphaGo is an example of artificial intelligence (人工智能)—AI. Scientists are now trying to use AI to do many things, such as driving cars and writing stories. Some people worry that the development of AI may mean the end of humans. But the CEO of the company doesn’t think so. “This isn’t about a competition between humans and AI. The development of AI provides humans with another way to discover new knowledge.” Demis Hassabis said.

56. 假如你是Larry，你和父母一起观看《忠犬八公》(Hachi: A Dog’s Tale)这部电影，深受感动。你决定写一篇观后感。请将以下文章翻译为英文。

提示: until直到……才……；moved感动的

今天我和父母看了一部电影——《八公的故事》。这部电影讲述了一只狗和它的主人帕克之间的故事。

一天，帕克在车站遇到了一只可怜的狗。他把狗带回家，好好照顺它。他称之为八公犬。八公非常爱帕克，于是带着帕克去了车站，一直等到帕克回来。

不幸的是，帕克突然去世了，但八公不相信。它仍然去车站等帕克直到他死去。

看了这部电影后，我很感动。我认为我们需要关爱动物，和它们成为朋友。
