27、y group took part in activities ranging from learning about the history of aviation(航空) to flying in advanced pilot training simulators(模拟装置). At least once a day, I devoted myself to learning one of the worlds best training aircrafts, the Cessna 182. Not only did I receive thorough ground instructi
28、on, but I also got to fly. In total, I flew five hours to receive my private pilots license. In that one joyous and oh-so-short week, my passion for aviation grew even stronger. Now, whenever I see a plane flying overhead, I feel a sense of pride thinking Ive done that.During my time in and above th
29、e Arizona desert, I learned not only about the mechanics and techniques of aviation, but also about myself and how I see the world. As I floated in that seemingly endless sea of air, I became aware of the variety and complexity of the humanity below. On the roadways, each tiny car carried people wit
30、h hopes and dreams. I wondered if any of those people had ever wished to fly like an eagle. Then I realized that each must have his or her own dreams and ambitions. Thats what makes us unique. We try to respond to something special inside us. I also realized that I was especially fortunate to be mak
31、ing my own dream come true.Everywhere I go, I hear, “Do what makes you happy and you will be happy.” It sounds like standardadvice, but Ive really thought about it and taken it to heart. I couldnt care less about how much money I make or what benefits I receive. I know that I am already in hot pursu

35、 he goesDMachines could put more than half the worlds population out of work in the next 30 years, according to a computer scientist who said on Saturday that artificial intelligences threat to the global economy should not be ignored. Physicist Stephen Hawking and the tech billionaires Bill Gates a
36、nd Elon Musk issued a similar warning last year.Moshe Vardi, a professor at Rice University, said that AI (artificial intelligence) could drive global unemployment to 50%. He said the AI revolution will not be a matter of physically powerful machines that do better than human laborers, but rather a
37、contest between human wisdom and mechanical intelligence and strength. In his talk, Vardi referred to economist John Maynard Keynes rosy view of a future in which billions worked only a few hours a week, with intelligent machines to support their easy lifestyles - a prediction accepted by Google hea
38、d of engineering Ray Kurzweil, who also believes that AI could bring about a promising future for mankind. Vardi insisted that even if machines make life easier, humanity will face an existential(关于生存的) challenge. “I do not find this a promising future,” he said. “I believe that work is essential to
39、 human wellbeing.”Last year, the consultant company McKinsey published a research about which jobs are at risk thanks to intelligent machines, and found that some jobs - or at least well-paid careers like doctors - are better protected than others. The researchers also concluded that some low-paying
40、 jobs, including health care assistants, are also less likely to be changed than others.
