Like mst peple, I had a lt f time n my hands these past few years, and I spent mst f it n my phne. This, tgether with anxiety medicatin (药物治疗), has made my brain weak. I’ve never had a very gd memry, but by summer f 2021, I saw the little memry that I did have disappear suddenly while Ggling “ben afleCk brther bad 1.”
I grew frustrated. I culdn’t remember the name f Jan Hllway’s military husband frm Mad Men withut lking it up, r the name f my cllege friend, wh wuld cme int my drm regularly t talk abut hw much he wrked ut. Nne f this was especially useful r life-changing infrmatin, but I wanted t remember it withut making a shameful mess f my search histry.
Inspired by a desire t impress myself and thers, I decided t stp lking stuff up nline and see what happened. When I culdn’t remember the character frm Mad Men, instead f instantly turning t my phne, I just sat there, thinking, very hard. (Aha! Greg was his name.) And s my new skill was brn: Strng Brain.
Fr a few mnths, I didn’t make any prgress. Smetimes I wuld sit withut knwing smething fr hurs, well after whever I was with had lked it up and had mved n t knwing the next thing that I culdn’t remember. I was frequently laughed at and made t feel stupid fr sitting with my arms crssed. I was teased fr nt cming up with answers t things that n ne n earth shuld knw simply because I tk an attitude against lking them up.
But while the sunds f my haters gt luder and luder, my brain beefed up in my defense. As friends tried t remember the name f the actr wh played Rbin Williams’s sweetheart in Jumanji, I spke unthinkingly with ‘Bnnie Hunt’.
If yu’re like me and have always wanted t be the shiny, pretty persn at a party that everyne is listening t and smiling at and wndering where she gt her hair cut, I think Strng Brain is the party trick fr yu.

At first lk, the playgrund at the Children’s Guild-Transfrmatin Academy in Baltimre, Maryland, lks like any ther. But it is nt just a place fr fun. Everything is specifically designed fr kids aged 5 t 21 with autism (自闭症) spectrum disrder (ASD) and are lwer-functining.
The gal f the schl is t make the students as independent as pssible in an effrt t help them prepare fr adult life. The schl aims t prvide help with develping cmmunicatin and scial skills, as well as practical abilities like cleaning r cking.
Parts f the playgrund that seem small are very imprtant fr children with autism and ther disabilities. The surrunding fence extends int a wded area t make it seem mre pen. And the grund under the play areas is made f sft, but slid materials t supprt students using wheelchairs.
Instead f just ne slide, there are tw sitting side-by-side. That way, parents r teachers with lder, larger students can g dwn the slide tgether with the kids.
The playgrund’s designers say a number f sensry elements are als included t help the students. The benches (长凳) n the utside f the playgrund lk simple frm faraway but are “ne f ur mst inclusive sensry” elements. They have many different clurs that bring abut feelings f calm and curisity. They are als made with smth material that can be felt and mved. If a child starts t feel uneasy, they can sit dwn and feel the bench, which can help them relax.
One f the mst imprtant designs is a twer that can spray water n multiple children. This can be an imprtant way fr lder children with autism t get ver their fears f water, which fr them can be ver stimulating. Like the shwer, much f the equipment is designed t persuade students t interact with each ther, even thugh they might usually like playing alne. A swing set is designed t permit tw kids t swing at the same time, fr example.
The schl plans t pen up the playgrund fr everyne in the autism cmmunity, even if they d nt attend Transfrmatin Academy.
8. Which f the fllwing can accurately describe Transfrmatin Academy?
A. An n-prfit private rganizatin.
B. A special schl fr children with disabilities.
C. A public schl that integrates educatin and fitness.
D An imprtant place fr cmmunity children’s activities.
9. What are the basic principles fr selecting materials within the play area?
A. They shuld be sft and affrdable.
B. They shuld be small and cmfrtable.
C. They shuld be cheap and ec-friendly.
D. They shuld be safe and cnsidered frm multiple angles.
10. What is special abut the benches n the playgrund?
A. They are simple and unifrm in clur.
B. They are nly fr ne persn t sit alne.
C. They are smth and fixed in ne psitin.
D. They are a cmbinatin f varius physical senses,
11. What can be inferred abut the playgrund?
A. It encurages students t play alne.
B. It is nt different frm any ther playgrund.
C. It is nly available fr students frm the schl.
D. It scre is t create pprtunities fr secure cmmunicatin.

Machine learning sees reasning as a categrizatin task with a fixed set f predetermined labels. It views the wrld as a fixed space f pssibilities, calculating and weighing them all. This apprach, f curse, has achieved ntable successes when applied t stable and well-defined situatins such as chess r cmputer games. When such cnditins are absent, hwever, machines struggle.
In 2008, Ggle launched Flu Trends, a web service that aimed t predict flu-related dctr visits using big data. The prject, hwever, failed t predict the 2009 HINI flu utbreak. After several unsuccessful adjustments t its algrithm (算法), Ggle finally stpped the prject in2015.
In such unstable situatins, the human brain behaves differently. Smetimes, it simply frgets. Instead f getting trapped in irrelevant data, it relies nly n the mst recent infrmatin and makes creative decisins. This is a feature called intelligent frgetting. Adpting this apprach, an algrithm that relies n a single data pint wuld have reduced Ggle Flu Trends' predictin errr by half.
Intelligent frgetting is just ne dimensin f psychlgical AI, an apprach t machine intelligence that als includes ther features f human intelligence such as causal reasning, intuitive (直觉) psychlgy, and physics. Sn, this apprach t Al will finally be recgnized as fundamental fr slving prly-defined prblems. Explring these amazing features f the human brain will finally allw us t make machine learning smart.
One feature f psychlgical Al is that it is explainable. Until recently, researchers assumed that the mre transparent an AI system was, the less accurate its predictins were. This mirrred the widespread but incrrect belief that cmplex prblems always need cmplex slutins. Nw, this idea will be laid t rest. As the case f flu predictins illustrates, pwerful and simple psychlgical algrithms can ften give mre accurate predictins than cmplex algrithms. Psychlgical AI pens up a new visin fr explainable AI: Instead f trying t explain cmplex systems, we can check first if psychlgical Al ffers a simple and equally accurate slutin.
Withut the help f human psychlgy, it will becme clearer that the applicatin f this type f machine learning t unstable situatins eventually runs up against impassable limitatins. We will finally recgnize that mre cmputing pwer makes machines faster. Nt smarter.
12. Why is Flu Trends mentined?
A. T clarify a cncept.B. T tell the serius utbreak.
C. T supprt the authr's idea.D. T prvide readers with the truth.
13. What is the advantage f human brain accrding t the passage?
A. It can think utside the bx.B. It can avid unclear prblems.
C. It is capable f learning ver time.D. It is gd at fllwing instructins.
14. Which has the similar meaning with the underlined wrd “transparent” in paragraph 5?
A. Similar.B. Unique.C. Cmplete.D. Clear.
15. What des the authr intend t tell us?
A. AI speeds up the cmputing greatly.
B. Psychlgical Al can make smarter AI.
C. AI system wrks well in stable situatins.
D. AI will utperfrm the human brain smeday.

The Greatest Thanksgiving
“Are yu ging grcery shpping tday?” my husband, Ry asked when I picked up the telephne.
“I plan t,” I answered.
Thanksgiving was nly a cuple days away. Everyne in ur family wuld be cming t ur huse. My funds were limited, therefre my bx f cupns (优惠券) awaited me in the car. I knew I had t be creative in my shpping that day. I had t stretch every dllar.
Fr a few secnds, Ry sat silently n the ther end f the line. “Why d yu ask?” I uttered, fearing what he might say.
“Nancy, there’s a family with a half dzen kids that will nt have anything t eat fr Thanksgiving. The little ne is nly five years ld. While yu’re at the stre, culd yu pssibly buy smething fr them?” Ry’s wrds eched in my heart. My head began t spin (眩晕)thinking abut the fifty dllars I had reserved fr ur family’ s Thanks giving dinner.
In the back f my mind I cunted the hungry guests wh wuld be cming t ur huse fr dinner. I put my head dwn n my desk, already feeling defeated.
There’s n way pssible, I thught. But the sympathy I heard in my husband’s vice struck a nerve inside me.
“Sure.” I replied.
I finished my wrk and prayed all the way t the nearest grcery stre.
The turkeys were indeed n sale—29 cents a pund, but I discvered ne big prblem. When I read the sign psted n the freezer dr, my heart sank. “Limit ne.”
“But I need tw,” I uttered t myself, I decided t find the manager. I explained the prblem. He made an exceptin.
After tssing tw turkeys in the cart, I began my shpping. It was amazing hw many buy-ne-get-ne-free items were being featured that day. In additin, I had all the right cupns t get exactly what bth families needed fr a hearty Thanks giving dinner. I held my breath while the cashier rang up my grceries.
T my surprise, I had enugh mney. I was even able t purchase a package f ckies fr the five-year-ld wh had stlen my heart, even thugh I had never met her.
