【題目】Robotic Pets

I am going to predict how people are going to be with future technology in their life. I think robotic pets are going to be increasingly popular as the technology develops. At least I am going to build what I think is a strong case for this prediction.

From a neurological point of view, I do not see anything in the　way to people bonding (紐帶) fully with robotic pets. The human　brain can attach (賦予) emotions to things and respond to emotional signaling. Being alive is simply not required. From how objects move, our brains infer that they are able to act with their own will　and purpose. If they move in a way that cannot be explained simply as passive (被動的) movement, then they must be moving on their own. Therefore, they　can connect to the emotional centers in our brains. We either fear them, or love them, or　hunger for them, or whatever. We can respond emotionally with cartoon creatures, with　animals, and yes, even with robots. Our brains treat things that act alive as if they are　alive—no different.

One of the opposite points that people often bring up is that they love the way their pets behave, not just look. This gets to AI, which has been developing at a fast pace. We have AI that can beat world masters in chess and go. I have no doubt we can build AI to mimic (模仿) the behavior of dogs and cats, if not now then probably within a generation.

So we will have no problem fully emotionally bonding with a robotic pet. But this doesn't mean we would prefer such a pet. One argument against robotic pets is that they will be expensive compared to a live pet—but this is likely not to be true forever. Living pets need to be fed, and they need at least basic medical care, and they may need to be boarded at times. Also, people spend hundreds of dollars on pets, __________or thousands of dollars on purebred species. Robotic pets will finally cost less in total than biological ones.

But let's get to the real reason people will prefer robotic pets at last. The possibilities for building in useful technology are endless. An advanced robotic pet could also serve as a defensive and alarm system. You could recharge your cell phone off their batteries. They could be a walking cell phone. They would be excellent companions for the elder, affording them more independence for longer. This in itself would be a huge cost saving—anything that keeps people out of a nursing home is cost effective.

Imagination is really the only limitation, once you have the basics of a working robot. When the technology crosses a certain limit, this will be a thing. Future generations may consider keeping a living animal in your home as primitive (原始的) and cruel. They may have a point.

【1】Why can we bond fully with robotic pets?

A.They can respond to our reactions.

B.They can move actively and freely.

C.Our brains can treat things differently.

D.Our brains can attach emotions to them.

【2】According to the passage, we know that 　　　　.

A.robotic pets will be cost effective in the future

B.present AI can mimic all the behaviors of live pets

C.the elder prefer to have robotic pets as companions

D.the young think it primitive and cruel to keep live pets

【3】The writer probably agrees that 　　　　.

A.live pets will serve us better

B.it is easier to keep live pets at home

C.technology ensures robotic pets a bright future

D.imagination limits the development of robotic pets

【題目】

Jose Cruz’s South Texas community is 99 percent Spanish. Although their dependence on Spanish could be seen as something that makes life in America more difficult, Jose and his high school classmates found a way of turning the disadvantage into an advantage. They founded the Spanish Immersion Institute ( 學(xué) 院 ). The institute allows visitors from around the country to live with a local host family and attend classes. The four-week program is run by local youth (most of the program’s tutors are teenagers, while many students are adults), and the goal is to develop cross-cultural understanding. Jose is now studying pre-med at Yale University and hopes to become a doctor.

Though only in her late teens, Krisina Ivanova has been a gymnast(體操 運(yùn)動員) for seven years.

Being with the circus has provided her with some unusual opportunities. She has been able to travel all over the world. And unlike many kids, Kristina is trilingual. She speaks Russian, English, and French, the language used in Cirque du Soleil schools.
