【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 D. beg for the customers’ fiveness 26. Ellen Pao may agree that_______. A. the wage system should be reformed B. Elana does well in her jo C. women don’t care about salary at all D. men should get more salary than women C Robots make me nervous—especially the ones which seem to think for themselves. I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, felt the same way. Gates said in an interview with the social working and news website Reddit: “I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent. That should be positive if we manage well. A few decades after that the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern, though.” Well, maybe I don’t have to worry about my laptop and kitchen appliances yet. After I use them I can always pull the plug. But in the future, machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off. There’s a scary thought! Professor Stephen Hawking warned a few months ago about the possibility that artificial intelligence could evolve and end up beyond human control. He suggested that machines could “spell the end of the human race”. Maybe the problem with puters too clever for us is not that they are evil or rebellious. What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient. That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University believes. He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals。 the destruction of people might be just additional damage. A machine would not take pity on you. I’m glad my machines at home are “dumb”. All my vacuum cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room. Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world! 27.

They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. 31 Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They cannot or will not express it. This is called repressing anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. 32 Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. 33 They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “ 34 Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. 35 A. In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
