Have you ever thought about how much you use technology, or more specially, the Internet? Have you used it today?
The Internet has opened the door to international communication. Jobs, schoolwork and entertainment rely on the Internet in some form or another.
The Internet is a network that allows for computers to talk to each other. Computers work together and share information as part of a huge, global network. This network is not located in a building, but rather is connected by cables around the world. These cables even run through oceans.
When one computer communicates with another, it sends information through a network of cables. The information is sorted into packets. Packets are small pieces of information that are similar to a puzzle. After that, they are sent through the cables. Packets can travel millions of miles per millisecond through transoceanic cables. Cables then reach stations, where they connect up to wires on land.
When a computer receives a packet, the pieces are mixed up. Then it’s the computer’s job to piece together the information and share it with the user. It’s this system that allows people to communicate across oceans.
1. You are NOT using the Internet when you ________.| A．play the League of Legends | B．send your teacher an e-mail |
| C．chat with your cousin on WeChat | D．bake a cake in your kitchen |
| A．The Internet is connected by cables. |
| B．Computers are part of the Internet. |
| C．You can see many packets under the sea. |
| D．Computers share information through the Internet. |
| A．across-the-ocean | B．under-the-ocean | C．over-the-ocean | D．on-the-ocean |
| A．Transoceanic cables | B．How the Internet works |
| C．The network is very important | D．Packets under the sea |

【推荐1】If you are in Dubai you may notice a robot police officer sharing the street with you. Your first thought might be, "Have I walked into a movie set?"The answer is no. That robot is Dubai's newest police officer. The robot has a touch screen instead of a weapon. The robot will be employed mostly at shopping centers and other places popular with visitors. The robot's face has eyes but no mouth or nose. It stands 165 centimeters tall and weighs 100 kilograms. If the robot works well, Dubai says 25 percent of its police force could be robotic by 2030.
The robot cop was officially presented at Dubai's Gulf Information and Security Expo and Conference in May. Mohammed Elnakib, a telecommunications manager, was surprised when he was met with a "Hi, Mohammed!" from the robot cop. Elnakib said, it was creepy but it is also the future. Then I realized it had read my name tag. This will be a fantastic addition because everything is moving towards doing more with fewer people.
The rolling robot reported for duty on the streets of Dubai. The police hope the robots will make life easier for the people of Dubai. Khalid Al Razooqi is Director General of Smart Services at the Dubai Police. He said the robot can help the public all day, every day, and that "it won't ask for any sick leave or maternity leave."The robot cannot make arrests. But it can recognize faces and compare them to photographs on a criminal database. It can also sense emotions. People can use the robot's touch screen to do things like report a crime, pay fines and report lost or found things. They can also ask how to get somewhere. The robot can salute and shake hands with people. So far, the robot can speak in Arabic and English. It soon will learn other languages such as Russian, Chinese, French and Spanish. Dubai has plans to add other kinds of robots to its police force. Within two years, the city plans to deploy a three-meter-tall robot that can run up to 80 kilometers an hour. The Dubai government says the machine would be the world's largest robot. A human police officer will be able to sit inside and control the robot. It will be able to lift heavy objects.

【推荐2】On October 25th, 2018, Christie's (佳士得拍卖行) had a very unusual sale. It sold the first piece of artwork created by artificial intelligence for $432,500.
The painting was created by an AI program written by Obvious, an AI research studio in Paris. Soon questions rang through the media: Is this art? Who is the artist? How about the owner? Are machines now creative, too?
All good questions—but too early. The technology is far from advanced (高级的), as Obvious suggested, because the public is completely confused about what AI is, and what it is able to do.
In fact, the painting was just one of the countless artworks AI could produce. It was the team behind Obvious that chose this one. The team first programmed the AI, and then they chose 15,000 paintings to train the software (软件). Connecting the painting with the algorithm (计算程序) was just a clever marketing tool. AI did not produce the painting on its own at all.
Lots of artists are using the same software as Obvious, but none of them are worried about losing jobs because of AI. As they build the machine themselves and work with it every day, they know how limited it is. What interests the artists is to create works together: the way AI lets them go beyond their natural ability.
Artists also laugh at the idea that AI is creative. It certainly creates things, sometimes in new and successful ways, but it does so without a purpose. It is the artist who shapes its output. "You make a fire and it produces interesting shapes, but in the end the fire is not creative. AI is a glorified (被美化的) campfire," said one of the pioneers of using AI in art.
1. The underlined word "confused" in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.| A．easy to understand | B．angry | C．unable to think clearly | D．certain |
| A．what the painting was created for |
| B．how AI learned to paint |
| C．why the painting was connected with the algorithm |
| D．why the painting was not created by AI alone |
| A．paint on the computers | B．come up with new ideas |
| C．improve their painting skills | D．save time and money |
| A．can produce countless artworks | B．requires no programming |
| C．can think for itself | D．makes artists lose jobs |
