Traditional
Chinese
medicine
(TCM)
is
gaining
global
popularity.
According
to
a
government
white paper, TCM
has been introduced in 183 countries and regions
around the world.
Westerners'
understanding
of
TCM,
however,
may
be
limited
to
acupuncture,
cupping
and
massa
ge(
针灸，拔罐和按摩
). For instance,
the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S.
swimmer
Michael
Phelps
，
back from
cupping
for
the
purpose
of
relaxing
his
muscles and reducing
pain
became the center of attention during
the Rio Olympics in 2016.
As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more
important role in getting rid of diseases and
keeping the body in good condition in
the TCM treatment system than physical treatment.
It is
therefore
disheartening
to
know
that
while
103
World
Health
Organization
member
countries
have given
approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many
recognize Chinese herbal medicine.
TCM
falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to
the slow development of Chinese herbs.
Herbs
are
made
into
pills,
powder
and
soup,
and
the
kind
of
herbs
used,
their
quality
and
quantity,
and
the
processing
of
the
ingredients
(
原材料
)
jointly
determine
the
effectiveness
of
the
prescription.
Compared
with
Western
medicine,
which
has
standardized
drug
production
processes
and
treatment
methods,
TCM
lacks
standardization,
with
the
chemical
composition
and
functions
of
its
medicines
being
unclear
and
their
effects
being
unstable.
Fortunately,
standardization
has
improved
in
recent
decades,
with
an
increasing
number
of
factories
producing patented TCM
drugs.
Another factor
that has prevented the development of TCM
prescription drugs is the lack of
creativity.
While
Western
medicine-making
companies
come
up
with
new
products
every
year,
TCM
drug producers tend to make medicines according to
prescriptions handed down from the
past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's
winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or
Medicine for her
research
into
malaria
(
疟疾
)
treatment
may
drive
creativity
to
some
extent
in
China's
TCM
industry. However, the current state of
affairs cannot be changed within a short
time.
（
1
）
Why
does the author mention the example of Michael
Phelps?
A.
Because he was injured in his swimming.
B. Because cupping is a kind of
important TCM
treatment.
C. Because
westerners
know
a
little
about
TCM.
D. Because
westerners
attach
great
importance to TCM.
（
2
）
Why
don't some member countries of WHO recognize
Chinese herbal medicine?
A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of
diseases.
B. Because they only
approve the practice
of
acupuncture.
C. Because
Western
medicine
is
more
effective.
D. Because
medicine
made
out
of
Chinese
herbs develops
slowly.
（

）
Compared with Western medicine,
what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4?
A. The methods of planting
herbs. B. The effectiveness
of prescription.
C. Lacking
in standardization.
D. Its stable functions.
（
4
）
The
lack of creativity in TCM refers to the fact that
________.
A.
medicine-making companies lack creativity
B. prescriptions are got from the
past
C. Western
companies
are
more
experienced
D. medicine-making

Learning, Fast and
Deep
Over the past five
years researchers in artificial intelligence have
become the rock stars of the
technology
world. A branch of AI known as deep learning,
which uses neural(
神经的
)
networks to
scan
through
large
volumes
of
data
looking
for
patterns,
has
proven
so
useful
that
skilled
practitioners can command high six-
figure salaries to build software for Amazon,
Apple, Facebook
and Google.
The standard route into
these jobs has been a PhD in computer science from
one of America's
top universities.
Earning one takes years and requires a personality
suited to academia, which is
rare among
more normal folk.
That
is changing.
Last month
, a non-profit education organization based in San
Francisco, kicked off the
third year of
its course in deep learning. Since its foundation
it has attracted more than 100, 000
students
around
the
globe
from
India
to
Nigeria.
The
course
and
others
like
it,
come
with
a
simple idea: there is no need to spend
years obtaining a PhD in order to practise deep
learning.
Creating
software
that

can
be
taught
as
a
craft,
not
as
a
high
intellectual
pursuit
to
be
undertaken
only in an ivory tower. Fast. ai's course can be
completed in just seven weeks.

is
the
aim
of
Jeremy
Howard,
who
founded
with
Rachel
Thomas,
a
mathematician.
He
says
school
mathematics is sufficient.
fist for punctuation.
Some experts worry that this will
serve only to create a flood of unreliable AI
systems which
will be useless at best
and dangerous at worst. In the earliest days of
the Internet, only a select
few nerds,
namely computer holies with specific skills, could
build applications. Not many people
used them. Then the invention of the
World Wide Web led to an explosion of web pages,
both
good and bad. But it was only by
opening up to all that the Internet gave birth to
online shopping,
instant global
communications and search. If Mr. Howard and
others have their way, making the
development of AI software easier will
bring forth a new crop of fruit of a different
kind.

On average, Americans
spend about 10 hours a day in front of a computer
or other electronic
devices
and
less
than
30
minutes
a
day
outdoors.
That
is
a
claim
made
by
David
Strayer,
a
professor of psychology at the
University of Utah. In his 2017 TED Talk, Strayer
explained that all
this time spent with
technology is making our brains tired.
Using an electronic device to
answer emails, listen to the news and look at
Facebook puts a lot
of pressure on the
front of the brain, which, Strayer explains , is
important for critical
(
有判断力
的
)thinking ,
problem-solving and decision-making.
So, it is important to give the brain a
rest. And being in naure, Strayer claims, helps
get a tired
brain
away
from
too
much
technology.
More
than
15,000
campers
from
around
the
world
attended
an
international
camping
festival
in
September.
That
is
when
friends
and
family
take
time off and escape to nature for
several days. They take walks, climb, explore,
swim, sleep, eat
and play. Camping may
be just what a tired brain needs.
Take
Carl
for
example .He
lives
in
West
Virginia
and
enjoys
camping.
He
says
that
staying
outdoors makes him
feel at ease. It also prepares him for the work he
must do. Kate Somers is
another example
who also lives in West Virginia. She says she
enjoys camping with her husband
and two
children. She calls it a
“
regenerative
”
experience.
At the
University of Utah, David Strayer has studied both
short-term and long-term exposure to
nature. He found that spending short
amounts of time in nature without technology does
calm
the brain and helps it to remember
better. However, he found, it is the long-term
contact with
nature
that
does
the
most
good.
He
and
his
research
team
found
that
spending
three
days
in
nature
without any technology is enough time for the
brain to fully relax and reset itself.
（

Wha
t is David Strayer's opinion?
A. Americans dislike
outdoor activities.
B.
Electronic equipment should be quitted.
C. New technologies are a double-edged
sword.
D. Electronic
equipment brings great convenience.
（

Why
does Strayer insist we go outdoors?
A. To try another
lifestyle.
B. To refresh our brain.
C. To make better decisions.

Oh my God, the robots are taking
over! We're doomed! Doomed! Now that I've gotten
that out
of my system, it's become
clear that while we may or may not be doomed, the
robots are taking
over. The latest
example is the government's new guidelines for
self-driving cars.
Tesla, Google and Uber are already testing
driverless cars in cities across America. Uber
chief
executive Travis Kalanick is
among those predicting that by 2021, self-driving
cars will play a big
part in urban
settings.
Nearly
40,000
people
died
last
year
in
this
nation
in
automobile-related
accidents,
and
we
believes driverless cars can save tens
of thousands of lives annually.
Makes
sense.
Robot
drivers
are
less
likely
to
get
drunk,
drive
without
a
license,
text
while
driving or feel
agitated at the scene of a pileup. On the other
hand, I wonder how these highly
sensitive
cars
will
react,
with
walkers
constantly
dashing
into
the
street.
Will
they
jam
on
the
brakes every 10 seconds?
But
there's
a
bigger
picture.
Not
only
are
robots
replacing
humans
behind
the
wheel,
but
behind
the work desk, in warehouses, senior homes, you
name it. Robots aren't just taking over
in the workplace.
The question is, where can't a
robot function better than a human? How about
writing songs?
A robot can go through
every combination of notes in record time and come
up with a pleasing
melody.
The
lyrics
might
be
a
different
story.
Is
a
Grammy-winning
song
co-written
by
Hank
Human and R-3071 in our
future?
Finally, it's
only a matter of time until we have robot
politicians and presidential candidates.
Why not? They can be programmed to be
experts in world and domestic affairs and come up
with
the best solutions without
corruption and bad humors.
Actually, it's too bad such technology isn't
available in 2016. Pretty sure the robot would win
in
a landslide.

Directions:
Choose the one that fits best according to the
information given in the passage
you
have just read.
When
she was ten years old, Isadora Duncan dropped out
of school to teach people dance. If
that job was left to any other ten-
year-old, it would have turned out frustrating,
difficult, and a
little
discouraging.
But Duncan was different. Not only was she already
talented enough to earn money even at
that
age,
but
she
also
had
a
rare
kind
of
confidence
that
helped
her
treat
troubles
as
fuel
—
something
to elevate the fire that is already burning inside
of her.
It's no
surprise, then, that when she moved to New York to
join a theatre company, she found
herself restricted. The existing
dancing style, their way of
operating
—
all of this seemed
to her the
work
of
a
misguided
past.
Duncan
was
very
direct
about
what
she
wanted,
confidently
telling
people
she
had
a
different
vision
of
dance
that
she
was
going
to
spread
in
the
world.
This,
naturally,
led
to
ridicule
and
laughs
early
on,
but
as
she
built
up
her
work,
these
instances
became less
frequent. Today, she is remembered as
modern
art
owing
its
expressive
style
to
her
influence.
Inspired
by
the
ancient
Greeks,
she
brought the style to life.
In her autobiography
(
自传
), one of the things
Duncan frequently refers to as the basis of her
expressive spirit is the fact that she
had a childhood where she wasn't constantly
watched. The
expectations
of
her
mother
(who
raised
her)
were
open-ended.
It
was
the
freedom
of
this
lifestyle
that drove her to see what she could
do.
Growing
up,
before
she
left
school,
she
was
told
one
of
two
things:
that
she
was
either
completely
useless
or
that
she
was
a
genius.
There
was
nothing
in
between.
Even
when
she
started
working, people either bowed to her or they
basically ignored her. But there wasn't one
moment Duncan doubted her own
genius.
There is an old
quotation

stupid.
a failure. In the dance hall,
she gave form to brilliance.
