I recently caught myself feeling this way, and based on a suggestion by John Horton, coauthor (合著者) of The Inner Game of Stress, I put myself on a 30day lifeappreciation course. The only assignment each day was to go outside and appreciate life. So I started by taking in the beauty around me. During the first few days, I was able to appreciate my surroundings, although it was an intellectual appreciation, not an emotional one. After the first week, it was more unfortable to lie in bed and think about things than it was to get up and see them for myself. If you often wake up feeling anxious or depressed, or if you don39。t look forward to each day, then you need to try this course for yourself. It39。s an inner workout that you can do anywhere. It may not change your life, but it will adjust your attitude, and that39。s pretty helpful in this crazy world. I have always believed in ending the day on a positive note by writing a word or two in a gratitude journal and saying something sweet to my wife about the day we shared. Now, I have a new morning habit. It hasn39。t changed my routine one bit, but it has changed the way I look at the world. Creating a new habit isn39。t about perfection – it39。s about getting what you want by creating a change in your behavior and thinking. So now, while I39。m making my coffee in the morning, I39。m also appreciating what I have. It39。s quick, fulfilling, and a much better way to start my day than looking at my phone or puter. And because of this, my attitude is better, as I39。ve already begun my morning on a positive note rather than a problematic one. The idea here is that if you can appreciate your life, it actually changes the way you feel about it. Appreciation will give you more energy to live the way you would like to live. As a means of improving our mood, it39。s highly underrated (被低估的). The easy task of appreciating what we have simply makes life better.(1)How did the author feel about seeing things for himself after he started the lifeappreciation course?

It hasn39。t changed my routine one bit, but it has changed the way I look at the world.可知,作者認(rèn)為他的新習(xí)慣改變了他看世界的方式,故選D。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第五段中的It39。s quick, fulfilling, and a much better way to start my day than looking at my phone or puter.可知,作者認(rèn)為感激生活是比電話或電腦更好的開(kāi)啟一天的方式,由此可知,作者不同意以玩手機(jī)娛樂(lè)的方式開(kāi)啟新的一天,故選C。 (4)考查主旨大意。通讀全文可知,作者講述了自己參加感激生活課程后生活發(fā)生的變化,由此可知作者寫這篇文章就是鼓勵(lì)讀者對(duì)生活充滿感激,故選C。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇人生感悟類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息。并進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。5.閱讀理解 Let us all raise a glass to AlphaGo and the advance of artificial intelligence. AlphaGo, DeepMind39。s Goplaying AI, just defeated the best Goplaying human, Lee Sedol. But as we drink to its success, we should also begin trying to understand what it means for the future. The number of possible moves in a game of Go is so huge that in order to win against a player like Lee. AlphaGo was designed to adopt a human—like style of gameplay by using a relatively recent developmentdeep learning. Deep learning uses large data sets, machine learning algorithms (計(jì)算程序) and deep neural networks to teach the AI how to perform a particular set of tasks. Rather than programming plex Go rules and strategies into AlphaGo DeepMind designers taught AlphaGo to play the game by feeding it data based on typical Go moves. Then, AlphaGo played against itself, tirelessly learning from its own mistakes and improving its gameplay over time. The results speak for themselves. Deep learning represents a shift in the relationship humans have with their technological creations. It results in AI that displays surprising and unpredictable behaviour. Commenting after his first loss, Lee described being shocked by an unconventional move he claimed no human would ever have made. Demis Hassabis, one of DeepMind39。s founders, echoed this ment:We39。re very pleased that AlphaGo played some quite surprising and beautiful moves. Unpredictability and surprises are—or can be—a good thing. They can indicate that a system is working well, perhaps better than the humans that came before it. Such is the case with AlphaGo. However, unpredictability also indicates a loss of human control. That Hassabis is surprised at his creation39。s behaviour suggests a lack of control in the design. And though some loss of control might be fine i
