Before I start, Id like to say that one thing everyone agrees on is that the most skilled musicians have worked hard to get there.While its true that a few of us had enough “talent” to avoid extra practice to do just as well as those who did, those who worked hard easily beat us
25、. It is, in fact, very likely that if some of us “talented ones” had actually been practicing and improving our skill, we would have achieved a whole different level.Another aspect of talent seems to be heart and passion (酷爱). The people I see who are the most talented musicians are crazy about musi
26、c. They eat, breathe, and live music and they make an extraordinary effort to make it part of their lives. As Remus Badea said, desire for the musician-to-be is significant for them to be successful. This desire is easily found in those considered to be talented. When you want and love something so
27、bad, it drives you and your entire character can be shaped around it. Such determined passion seems to produce incredible skill and talent.The third aspect (方面) of talent is having talent around you. When surrounded by talented musicians, it only seems natural that you start to catch up to their lev
28、el Take a look at almost any group of musicians in history. The more talented people in the group the more talented the group is as a whole.

Musicians are created, not born.DThe use of AI (artificial intelligence) is becoming more common in many branches of industry and online shopping. Traditional lines of work, such as goods transpo
32、rt and driving, are developing in a similar direction although mainly out of public view. Scientists at the University of Gttingen have now investigated how efficient (高效的) the use of AI can be in the commercial management of trucks.“Digital applicationsas well as machine leaning, a kind of AIare in
33、creasingly applied to operations and courses in the transport area,” explains Professor Matthias Klumpp from the Faculty of Economics. “The question in the commercial area, however, is whether or not this contributes to achieving goals.”To answer this question, the researchers compared the work effi
34、ciency of truck drivers with their main use of AI applications. Looking at trade delivery by truck, they studied three groups: the first drove completely following human decision-making models; the second used a combination of human and machine; and the third depended completely on fully automated d
35、ecisions.The researchers found that an intelligent combination of human work and decision-making abilities with AI applications promises the highest transport and driving efficiency. “On average, the second group achieved the most efficient transport trips, with the fewest interventions (干预) and off
36、-course from the best path.” one researcher said, “Clearly, neither a completely human decision-making structure nor a fully automated driving system can promise to meet current goods transport requirements.” The scientists therefore summarized that despite the progress of AI in the field of transpo
37、rtation by truck, human experience and decision-making abilities will still be necessary in the longer term. However, the challenge is that a wide range of training and qualification (资格) needs will come along by working with Al applications, especially for simple goods transport activities.12. What

Before I start, Id like to say that one thing everyone agrees on is that the most skilled musicians have worked hard to get there.While its true that a few of us ha
90、d enough “talent” to avoid extra practice to do just as well as those who did, those who worked hard easily beat us. It is, in fact, very likely that if some of us “talented ones” had actually been practicing and improving our skill, we would have achieved a whole different level.Another aspect of t
91、alent seems to be heart and passion (酷爱). The people I see who are the most talented musicians are crazy about music. They eat, breathe, and live music and they make an extraordinary effort to make it part of their lives. As Remus Badea said, desire for the musician-to-be is significant for them to
92、be successful. This desire is easily found in those considered to be talented. When you want and love something so bad, it drives you and your entire character can be shaped around it. Such determined passion seems to produce incredible skill and talent.The third aspect (方面) of talent is having tale
93、nt around you. When surrounded by talented musicians, it only seems natural that you start to catch up to their level Take a look at almost any group of musicians in history. The more talented people in the group the more talented the group is as a whole. A great example of this is the relationship
94、between audio producer and artist. The artist turns up to the studio with their song, and as they work through recording it, the audio producer will often suggest various changes to the song to make it better.8. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. Pride goes before a fall.B. Its never too old to l

Music favors the talented.D. Musicians are created, not born.【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. DDThe use of AI (artific
97、ial intelligence) is becoming more common in many branches of industry and online shopping. Traditional lines of work, such as goods transport and driving, are developing in a similar direction although mainly out of public view. Scientists at the University of Gttingen have now investigated how eff
98、icient (高效的) the use of AI can be in the commercial management of trucks.“Digital applicationsas well as machine leaning, a kind of AIare increasingly applied to operations and courses in the transport area,” explains Professor Matthias Klumpp from the Faculty of Economics. “The question in the comm
99、ercial area, however, is whether or not this contributes to achieving goals.”To answer this question, the researchers compared the work efficiency of truck drivers with their main use of AI applications. Looking at trade delivery by truck, they studied three groups: the first drove completely follow
100、ing human decision-making models; the second used a combination of human and machine; and the third depended completely on fully automated decisions.The researchers found that an intelligent combination of human work and decision-making abilities with AI applications promises the highest transport a
101、nd driving efficiency. “On average, the second group achieved the most efficient transport trips, with the fewest interventions (干预) and off-course from the best path.” one researcher said, “Clearly, neither a completely human decision-making structure nor a fully automated driving system can promis
102、e to meet current goods transport requirements.” The scientists therefore summarized that despite the progress of AI in the field of transportation by truck, human experience and decision-making abilities will still be necessary in the longer term. However, the challenge is that a wide range of trai
103、ning and qualification (资格) needs will come along by working with Al applications, especially for simple goods transport activities.12. What does Matthias Klumpp focus on?A. The efficiency of AI.B. The advantages of AI.C. The problems caused by AI.D. The wide applications of AI.13. How did the resea
104、rchers get the finding?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By using different trucks.D. By listing three experiments.14. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Al is better at making decisions.B. A balance is needed between human and AI.C. Human will soon be replaced by AI in d
105、riving.D. Al applications meet the current requirements.15. What is the best title for the text?A. The future of transport.B. Artificial intelligence as a co-driver.C. Artificial intelligence-a better choice in driving.D. The strengths of artificial intelligence in transport.【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15
