Over ten years ago,I walked into a small,cold classroom on the first floor of Towson
High School.It was my junior year,and I'd feared this moment for months:It was finally
time to take physics.
But everything changed when I met Mr.Jochmans,or "Joch",as we called him.He
greeted us with a loud "Hello,my wonderful physics students!"and a big smile.He must
have known how anxious we were,how truly nervous we were of physics and the math
required to understand it.On that first day,Joch told us something we'd hold close for the

Michigan State Univertyrentooe.
Fora while,I thought I'd study physics in cllee,maybe at Michigan State,because
Joch made me love leaing about speed and acceleration ()But when I found a
program in Canada to study theatre,Joch encouraged me to attend.When I applied to the
University of Ottawa and got in,he wasstic
After I moved to Canada,we lost touch.I became a theatre critic,a job Joch had once
suggested.In 2022,I visited Towson to lead a theatre criticism workshop,and,joy of joys,
ran into Joch.Not only did he remember my name but he knew what I'd been up to.
Mr.Jochmans passed away this month,just a week before the start of the new school
year.He was the kind of teacher who made everyone feel special.

Recently at Phoenix airport,I entered a taxi and,as driverless cars moved alongside us
on the highway,the driver asked me what I thought about AI.Before I could respond,he
began complaining about how AI would influence human jobs-in the era of AI,he said,
humans will finally end up with no work.
I could argue that Al-like machine learning and big language models-will clearly help
important fields like healthcare.But there are real worries too,like hackers()misusing it
or the huge energy needed for data centers.Still,I'm not too concerned about AI taking over
people's jobs.
【高一英语卷第4页(共8页)】
Why no?Bcause of Paradox"the idea tht humansknow thingswean
explain,which limits AI's ability to copkey human skills.For xampe inmath,wecan
describeprocesesimvolvingdhtacolectionandanalysisthatcanbetaughttostudents.Thats
explicitk which ablesstooa mputer to analyzeand aomdata.
But many humatiteuse abilities weunderstand intutively)but
explain.This is implicit knowledge.
Therefore human subjectivexperiences,beliefs and empathy (form unbeatable
barriers()that keep AI from replacing humans at work.As Dr.Tom McClelland at Clare
College observed,it's one thing to win a game of chess;another thing to feel the excitement
of victory.That's because those internal processes comefrom human consciousness(),
which plays an important role in the development of humansbiologically,culturally and
behaviorally,all of which form the basis of our society.You can't program consciousness-
mountains of literature and research have been published on the subject,and yet we still can't
agree on what it is.
These barriers to AI's failure in replacing humans don't necessarily benefit my Phoenix
taxi driver,who must compete with driverless cars.But they should remind us that we've
faced similar fears before-and that technology has improved,not lowered,our quality of life
over the centuries.
28.What did the taxi driver at Phoenix airport worry about?
A.Driverless cars are too fast.
B.He will lose his job due to AI.
C.Hackers will attack his phone.
D.Data centers need too much energy.
29.How does explicit knowledge differ from implicit knowledge?
A.It can be shown clearly.
B.It is based on math skills.
C.It is spread through teachers.
D.It can be processed intuitively.
30.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.How human society functions.
B.How humans have changed over time.
C.Why AI can't replace humans completely.
D.Why people can't program consciousness.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.AI and the Future of Work:To Fear or Not to Fear
B.Humans vs.AI:The Battle for Technological Control
C.AI in Daily Life:From Driverless Cars to Healthcare
D.Polanyi's Paradox:The Key to Realizing AI's Potential

When a dangerous landslide hits,rescuers hurrying to help need to know exactly where to
look-and now a new technique(技术)for analysing seismic(地震的)data can do just that,by
finding where the disaster started within a few kilometres in just seconds.
Present methods can only narrow down locations to within tens of kilometres,says
Stefania Ursica at the Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences in Germany.In remote areas,this
can lead to slowdowns if rescuers are sent to the wrong place."That time loss can be critical,"
Ursica says.
Many countries have a network of seismic monitors to record activity related to
earthquakes and volcanoes.This data can also be used to detect events such as landslides-the
risk of which is increasing because of climate change-but the data from these kinds of events
is much messier and harder to analyse than that from earthquakes,says Ursica.
【高一英语卷第5页(共8页)】
There are two new features of her team's technique,she says.The first is to analyse five
different aspects()of the seismic waveform to pick out from the noise exactly when an
event happened.
Thisinormation is then fed toa dozensomathematical programmes that search for the
loaionof the evet.They do this by workingoutwhat waveform would have been produced
if thevet had happened ina particuar place and comparing it tothereored waveform.If it
doesn't match,they try a different place.
Each programme"moves"in a way inspired by the behaviour of animals,from the
spiralling of a falcon to the long migrations of elephants,until they have coltivy homed in
on the most likely location of the event.The whole process takes ny around 10 seconds.
"We have basically an order of magnitude(of improvement,Ursica says.
In addition to helping rescue efforts,it will help researchers locateeventsi remote areas
where satellite data is unclear or unavailable.She says:"We can locate events that we
otherwise couldn't see."
32.What advantage does the new technique have over the present methods?
A.It is more easily used by rescuers.
B.It can gather a wider range of data.
C.It can be applied to more disasters.
D.It offers more exact and timely results.
33.What can be learnt about the data from landslides according to Ursica?
A.It's difficult to work with.
B.It's related to climate change.
C.It's different in every country.
D.It's similar to that of earthquakes.
34.What plays a key role in the operation of the new technique?
A.The record of earthquake waves.
B.The network of seismic monitors.
C.The use of mathematical programmes.
D.The analysis of the behaviour of animals.
35.How does Ursica sound in the last two paragraphs?
A.Formal.
B.Serious.
C.Confident.
D.Academic.
