Scientists have developed a way to read minds, translating unspoken thoughts into written words. It’s the first time that it’s been done without having to put anything into the brain. They used AI(artificial intelligence). It is the name of a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence.
Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器). The machine can see where blood runs, which shows the parts of the brain that are the most active. People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned. The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard. After that, each person was asked to think of a story, and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened.
The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率), although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns, such as he or she, her or him. For example, it turned “I don’t have my driving license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet”. It could usually understand the meaning of what some one was thinking rather than the exact words. The AI was personalized, so when it had learnt from one person but it was tested on another, it couldn’t understand their thoughts.
The scientists who have been working on the technology for 15 years say they understand the risks of it being used badly. Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper, “We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to, and that can help them.” The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions, who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak, to communicate once again.
11. What is “AI”?
A. A computer. B. A computer system. C. The brain. D. The minds.
12. What is Paragraph 2 mainly talking about?
A. The results of the experiment. B. The opinions about the experiment.
C. The process of the experiment. D. The difficulties with the experiment.
13. How does the writer tell us the results of the experiment in Paragraph 3?
A. By listing facts. B. By telling a story.
C. By making a conversation. D. By giving examples and numbers.
14. What can we know from the passage?
A. There are some risks of using the way to read minds.
B. People taking part in the experiment watched TV for 16 hours.
C. Scientists are sure that these types of technologies can help the disabled.
D The AI could understand the exact words of what people thought completely.
15. What may be a proper title for the passage?
A. The Importance of Human Brains B. The High Risks of Using AI
C. The Ways of Improving Technology D. The AI Mind-Reading Technology

They used AI(artificial intelligence). It is the name of a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence.
Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器). The machine can see where blood runs, which shows the parts of the brain that are the most active. People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned. The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard. After that, each person was asked to think of a story, and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened.
The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率), although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns, such as he or she, her or him. For example, it turned “I don’t have my driving license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet”. It could usually understand the meaning of what some one was thinking rather than the exact words. The AI was personalized, so when it had learnt from one person but it was tested on another, it couldn’t understand their thoughts.
The scientists who have been working on the technology for 15 years say they understand the risks of it being used badly. Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper, “We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to, and that can help them.” The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions, who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak, to communicate once again.
