B In the age of GenAI(生成式人工智能),educators everywhere are entering a new world of teaching. It's exciting that high technology is helping students learn in powerful ways.However,teachers also have worries,such as how to guide students in using GenAI tools like ChatGPT to learn more deeply instead of just using them to cheat. Although their influence on education is still uncertain,the use of AI in education is not new. Machine learning,a part of AI,is very good at predicting what students are ready to learn next.For example,in an English class,it can help to make sure which vocabulary words students have mastered and which ones they have not.This helps students avoid spending too much time on what they already know well,which is a great way to make learning more personalized(个性化的). During the process,well-trained AI can realize patterns in students' use of educational software(教学 软件)and let educators know about students who may have difficulty in leaning.If necessary,teachers can then take proper action. GenAI will also open doors to creating intelligent tools.Take writing in English as an example. GenAI can understand students' writing skills as soon as they finish their writing tasks,and provide personalized advice based on different learning styles.It also helps teachers better understand their students. Although the future with AI is not yet clear,it's important to focus on what matters most —GenAI is another tool to help students succeed. ( )26.How do teachers feel about GenAI? A.Happy but worried.
