One key to his success was his strictly observed daily schedule. Churchill is not a particularly early riser. He is a night owl. Around 8 o'clock, he takes off his sleeping mask to the smell of breakfast. On his bed places a tray (托盘) to his own design, with a cutout for his round belly that allows him to have breakfast and work at the same time Churchill usually begins the mornings with a full English breakfast, often accompanied by meat from the previous night, and sometimes a glass of wine. As he picks through his tray of food, he peruses the morning newspapers. Sometimes he rises, walking to his beloved Clementine in her separate bedroom, to discuss a startling development. From his battle station he dictates ( 口述) letters, sips. from a glass filled with water and some whisky, and reads until late morning. Then he bathes, dresses and begins his day. Lunch is followed by a walk round the gardens and ponds, cards with family and friends then followed by a nap. His nap is exactly an hour long. It allows him, he says, to get more hours out of every twenty-four Churchill's daily schedule reveals important principles for success: he knows how to get things done. He is one of the most productive men who ever lived. To achieve productively, he always follows two principles. The first he learnt from Napoleon: strength of force in the most important places. The second is economy of effort (节约能量) Economy of effort is one of Churchill's excellent characteristics (特征). His daily work in bed saves energy for later, when he will often dictate from a stand-up desk. When travelling he is even more economical. Never stand when you can sit down, he will advise a visitor. "Never sit down when you can lie down, and never to miss an opportunity to visit a washroom, as there is no knowing when the next chance will appear." )33.

It can guide us to where we want to go It can play games. And now, AI can do even more things Researchers from Microsoft have created the first machine translation svstem that can translate news articles from Chinese to English, Business Standard reported According to Microsoft's official website, researchers tested the system by asking it to translate hundreds of sentences taken from news stories. Then, language experts compared the results to two translations that were done by humans. The experts concluded (得 出结论) that the system's translations were as good as the human translations. Machine translation is always challenging. This is partly because different words can be used to express the same meaning. It can be hard to say which word is more "correct" Experts used several methods to improve the system's translation abilities. "Much of ou research is really inspired by how we humans do things," lead researcher Liu Tieyan said One method is called dual learning(对偶学习). In this method, the system translates every sentence from Chinese to English, as well as translates the sentences back from English into Chinese. This way, the system can improve itself and learn from its own mistakes. This is similar to what humans do to make sure their translations are accurate (准确的). Another method makes use of deliberation networks (推敲网络). The researchers taught the system to repeat the process of translating the same sentence over and over. Gradually, the system can improve the quality of its translations. This is similar to how people revise(修改) their own writing by going through it again and again )37.

Dual learning trains the system to translate A. more quickly B. different sentences C. more accurately D. the same sentence repeatedly C 40. What is the main idea of the last three paragraphs? A. What artificial intelligence can do for us B. How sentences are translated from Chinese to English C. How the machine translation system was developed. D.
