A human operator wears a
30、 headset with cameras that show what the robot “sees”. The human can then control the robots actions with his or her own human movements.With a human helper, THR3 could assist people in medical facilities, burning buildings, construction sites, and even space. Its creators hope that THR3 will learn
31、to do some tasks itself one day. like, say, your chores, maybe？SHAPESHIFTINGWhen a scientist programs in a shape, the motors change different parts of the surface to make it look like whatever the scientist wants! The shapeshifting robot can be programmed to look like just about anything small and e

37、ys many harmful effects via field experiments in schools and other realworld settings has won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences.Economists Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, both of MIT，and Michael Kremer of Harvard University will receive equal shares of the prize of 9 million Swedish k
38、ronor.Duflo is only the second woman ever to be awarded the economics Nobel. “Poverty has deep roots，and we use an experimental approach to examine particular aspects of this problem and determine what interventions(干预) work，” Duflo said.More than 700 million people globally live in extreme poverty.
39、 Half of the worlds children leave school without basic language or math skills. Roughly 5 million children under age 5 annually die from diseases that could have been prevented with inexpensive treatments.The three winners design and test interventions aimed at specific ways to alleviate povertys e
40、ffects on education, health care and other areas.Such studies are especially important because policies intended to fight poverty can often cause opposite results.In the mid1990s, Kremer led a team that tested a range of interventions aimed at improving learning among students attending schools in w
41、estern Kenya. Banerjee and Duflo, often with Kremer，then performed similar studies in other countries.One important line of research developed “Teaching at the Right Level” programs, which enable teachers in lowincome, developing nations to target instruction to students learning levels. Teachers in
42、 these programs learn ways to keep students from falling behind rather than forcing them through a onesizefitsall curriculum for each grade.A 2011 study led by Duflo, for instance，found that grade 1 test scores in a Kenyan school increased when teachers divided students into smaller classes based on
43、 their initial learning levels.A string of studies in the same vein led by the 2019 winners took randomized controlled trials and field experiments from ignored status to standard practice in developing nations.These studies showed that the virtually unanswerable question “How can we fight global po

What does the underlined word “alleviate” in Paragraph 4 most probab

It can be inferred that the method the 2019 winners applied to education _A. is more suitable for highlevel studentsB. is an intervention initially created by DufloC. will surely get rid of the deep roots of povertyD. takes into consideration

Field experimenting is the most scientific way to find whether interventions work.C. Education should be paid
47、more attention to due to its important part in fighting poverty.D. It may be helpful to narrow down the scale of a problem by focusing on specific aspects.CClimate change will bring and has already brought a wide variety of threatening destruction to human existence. Some of these are wellknown and
48、already operative, like the wildfires racing along Californias freeways or the permanent droughts that have been upsetting Mediterranean farmers. But are these all terrible disasters we can come up with that are brought about by climate change? Absolutely not. None of the challenges posed by our war
49、ming climate has appeared larger in the popular imagination than sealevel rise, as global populations and wealth are heavily concentrated in lowlying coastal cities.The best available models suggest that 37 million people currently live in places that will be below high tide by 2050in an optimistic
50、lowcarbonemissions scenario(设想)Or rather，thats what such models suggested before this week. On Tuesday，a new study revealed that those alarming statistics were wildly inaccurate. The actual impacts of sealevel rise are going to be much, much worse.Previous estimates of the impact that rising tides w
51、ould have on coastal cities relied on essentially a threedimensional map of Earth obtained from satellite readings. But those readings were fundamentally unreliable because they often measured the planets upper surfacessuch as treetops and tall buildingsrather than its ground level. These mistakes l
52、ed scientists to overestimate the elevation(海拔) of many regions of Earth.In a new study published by the journal Nature Communications, scientists from Princeton University detail this methodological problem，then use artificial intelligence to determine the previous literatures error rate.Their rese
53、arch yields some amazing updates to our conventional understanding of what the next century has in store for our coastlines.In its optimistic scenario，the Princeton study projects that lands currently occupied by 150 million people will lie below high tide in 2050.But as warming destroys many of the
54、 worlds agricultural regions, climate change could accelerate migration from rural areas to coastal cities.The new study does include one piece of slightly encouraging news. While previous models suggested that 28 million humans currently live in places that already lie below high tide, the actual n
55、umber is closer to 110 millionwhich means seawalls and other barriers have proven sufficient to keep many cities dry even as sea levels have risen around them. Still, the scale of barrier construction necessary to save lowlying cities from collapse is now, apparently, far greater than previously und
56、erstood when the task already looked terribly expensive，particularly for developing countries.If the Princeton researchers projections are correct, avoiding mass death and suffering in the coming decades will require not only rapidly reducing carbon emissions and strengthening construction of seawal
57、ls but also furthering mass migrations away from lowlying cities and islands and toward higher ground.()61. The first paragraph is mainly intended to _A. introduce the topic of this passageB. show various disasters caused by climate changeC. call on people to fix attention on climate changeD. lay em
58、phasis on the seriousness of climate change ()62. All the following statements are true EXCEPT _A. the Princeton study reveals an optimistic picture of sea risingB. the threedimensional map produced by satellite is not accurateC. some measures are mentioned by the writer to deal with sea rising D. m
59、ore people are likely to live in coastal cities in the coming years()63. We can see something encouraging from the Princeton study that _A. its cheap to construct seawalls as well as other barriersB. the scale of barrier construction is much greater than beforeC. developed countries have less troubl
60、e in dealing with rising sea levelsD. seawalls do have the function to prevent coastal cities being drowned()64. What can be a suitable title for the passage?A. How to protect cities from rising seasB. Rising seas are going to drown more citiesC. Climate change is endangering human existenceD. Less
61、emission of carbon, fewer fires and droughtsDIn January 2017, snow began to fall across the Apennines. From his home in the Rome suburbs, Edward watched the weather with concern. He and his wife，Caroline, had planned an overnight getaway to the hotel. But now he wondered whether they should go with
62、the road covered with snow. Edward phoned the hotel, whose owner, Del Rosso, advised Edward to use chains on his tyres.After a short talk，Edward and Caroline decided to make the trip.By the time they neared the resort(度假胜地) six hours later, they were battling a total whiteout. When they finally reac
63、hed the hotel, they were cold and exhausted. They checked into their room, trying to forget their long day in the car. Suddenly, the hotel began to shake. The windows rattled, and the water in the tub spilt over the edges. An earthquake with a magnitude of 5.7 had struck the mountain. Edward had had
64、 enough. “Lets get out of here，” he told his wife, dressing quickly. They were about to head to the parking lot when the snow on the mountain began to slide.Martin, the resorts caretaker, had been working in the tiny boiler hut about 30 yards from the main building when he noticed something abnormal
65、. Standing on an empty snowfield, he gazed at a trail of completedestructionit was as if a giant rake(耙子) had been dragged down the mountain, pulling down beech trees, crushing cars, chewing up everything in its path.Finding a signal with his phone seemed to take forever. In fact, it took two hours
66、before Martin finally spoke with the chief of the regions rescue team.“Were coming，” Crocetta promised. “How long will it take？” asked Martin.“Five or six hours.”Eight hours after Martin had talked to Crocetta, the rescuers finally arrived.There was no movement anywhereno human sound, just rubble(碎石
67、). Edward lay in a coffinsized pocket of air beneath 30 feet of snow, ice, and rubble. He could hear nothing of what was happening at the surface. Shock had set in, and he felt no pain, no hunger, no cold. Each time Edward awoke, he faced a new terrible reality: he was buried alive. Despair suddenly
68、 seized him. He asked himself, who is going to save us?Nick and three other rescuers kept digging on, breaking blade after blade on their circular saws(圆锯), battling toward a faint cell signal detected deep in the ruins. Suddenly they heard a voice. They silenced their saws and listened. It was Edwa
69、rd.He was still fading in and out of consciousness. A vision of his wife stayed with him, an angel of mercy, he thought. She assured him he would be OK.“Edward, we are here！” Nick shouted, ten feet above where the trapped man lay. “Are you injured？Are you bleeding？”As the voices and the buzzing of s
70、aws grew louder, Edward became more alert. “Where is my wife？”“We put her in the car because its cold，” Nick lied.At last, at around six in the morning, Nicks saw broke through a final thick layer of insulation(隔绝). He pointed his light toward the opening and spotted Edwards back. Nick could see how
71、 the angled beams had created a cocoon that prevented Edward from being crushed to death. Those near him had not been so lucky: Squeezed in the space with him were the bodies of two womenone supporting his head, one curled(卷曲) beneath his left leg.Rescuers raised the concrete beams off Edwards limbs
72、 with a jack(千斤顶). “You are a superhero，” Nick said as he reached beneath Edwards armpits and gently lifted him out of his tomb.Five days after his rescue, Edward was given the heartbroken news that his wife had died. Her body had been found, crushed by debris, near where Edward had been trapped. Th
73、e angel who had appeared to him in his dreams had, somehow, never left his side.()65. Edward was advised to use chains on his tires in order to _A. protect the tyres B. reduce the risk of slippingC. make the car stronger D. put on the weight of the car()66. What did Martin see after noticing somethi
74、ng abnormal?A. A beautiful scenery of snow.B. The cars crushed by the trees.C. A giant rake dragged down the mountain.D. The snow swallowing everything on its way.()67. It took Martin two hours to get in touch with the rescue team because _A. his phone was out of power B. the signal was not strong e
75、noughC. he was too scared to make the call D. the line was too busy to get through ()68. What was Edwards condition after he was trapped?A. He was lucky to be safe and sound.B. He was optimistic and waiting for the rescue patiently.C. He was in a bad state and came back to life once in a while.D. He
76、 was seriously injured and out of consciousness completely.()69. Nick lied to Edward when he asked about his wife because _A. he didnt want Edward to lose hopeB. he was a dishonest rescuer and often lied to othersC. he wanted to play jokes with Edward to relax himD. he wanted to distract his attenti

In the face of such a situation, earlier this year, Britain appointed its first “minister for loneliness”， who is c
79、harged with dealing with what the Prime Minister called the “sad reality of modern life”. Publichealth leaders immediately praised the ideaand for good reason.In recent decades, researchers have discovered that loneliness left untreated is not just psychically painful; it also can have serious medic
80、al consequences.And numerous studies have linked loneliness to heart disease, cancer, depression, diabetes and suicide. Vivek Murthy, the former United States surgeon general, has written that loneliness is “associated with a reduction in life span similar to that caused by smoking 15 cigarettes a d
81、ay and even greater than that associated with obesity”Anxiety about loneliness is a common feature of modern societies. Today, two major causes of loneliness seem possible. One is that societies throughout the world have embraced a culture of individualism. More people are living alone, and aging al
82、one, than ever. Liberal social policies have turned workers into unstable free agents, and when jobs disappear，things fall apart fast.Labor unions, civic associations, neighborhood organizations, religious groups and other traditional sources of social unity are in steady decline. Increasingly, we a
83、ll feel that were on our own.The other possible cause is the rise of communication technology, including smartphones, social media and the Internet.A decade ago, companies like Facebook，Apple and Google promised that their products would help create meaningful relationships and communities. On the c
84、ontrary, weve used the media system to deepen existing divisions, at both the individual and group levels. We may have thousands of “friends” and “followers” on Facebook and Instagram, but when it comes to human relationships, it turns out theres no choice but to build them the oldfashioned way, in
85、person.But is loneliness, as many political officials and experts are warning，a growing “health epidemic”？ I dont believe so, nor do I believe it helps anyone to describe it that way. Social disconnection is a serious matter, yet if we arouse a panic over its popularity and impact, were less likely
86、to treat it properly.In places like the United States and Britain, its the poor，unemployed，displaced and migrant populations that suffer most from loneliness. Their lives are unstable, and so are their relationships. When they get lonely, they are the least able to get adequate social or medical sup
87、port.I dont believe we have a loneliness epidemic.But millions of people are suffering from social disconnection. Whether or not they have a minister for loneliness，they deserve more attention and help than were offering today.Is Loneliness a Health Epidemic？IntroductionThe severity of loneliness re

Moreover, selfdisciplined students are liable to resist various temptations and develop a higher sense of control, thus shaping their characters.To cultivate selfdiscipline, one first needs to divide a great goal into small pla
