The Marubo tribe(部落) — who have lived for centuries along the Ituí River — had asked to connect to the Internet via Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite network, so they could call for help in life-threatening situations and stay in touch with relatives having moved away. "When it arrived, everyone was happy," one of the Marubo elders said. "But now, things have gotten worse." Many members of the tribe — especially the teenagers — have been addicted to their phones all day, chatting online or browsing videos. The Marubo elders have tried to restore order by limiting screen time. They worry about the damage being done to their younger generation. The traditionally modest tribe are now having to deal with boys watching and sharing horrible videos. Parents also worry about their children acting out after they play violent video games, and being targeted by strangers on social media. Marubo culture and history have been passed down orally for generations, creating a strong sense of identity. But now everyone is staring at their phones. One of the Marubo leaders sighs, "Everyone is so connected that they don’t even talk to their own family." How to deal with it? Would we all behave differently if we could see ourselves from the wiser point of old age? Luckily, there may soon be an app for that. Researchers at MIT(Massachusetts Institute of Technology) have designed an AI-powered chatbot that can simulate(模拟) an old version of the user, and offer wise advice from the future. AI uses the results of a personalised questionnaire to generate synthetic(合成的) memories of the life you haven’t lived. Then it digitally changes your profile picture to make you look old, and wears this face to present your elderly image. You can then ask it about what will happen to you in the future, which can create different results by adjusting the answers in your questionnaire. Pat Pataranutaporn, who designed the chatbot, says conversations with your older self can promote long-term thinking and behaviour change. You might, for example, finally study hard if Old You starts blaming Young You for your wasting time. I wonder what it will say to the teenagers of the Marubo tribe. 1.Why does the author take the Marubo tribe for example?( ) A.To introduce the topic of the Internet. B.To present the wide coverage of the Internet. C.To state the world’s urgent need for the Internet. D.To prove unexpected side effects of the Internet. 2.What are the Marubo elders concerned about at present?( ) A.Young people’s addiction to the Internet. B.Teenagers’ refusal to learn Marubo culture. C.Their failure to get in touch with their relatives. D.Their struggle to adapt to the Internet age. 3.What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?( ) A.How the AI-powered chatbot functions. B.Whether the AI-powered chatbot will be available. C.What benefits the AI-powered chatbot brings. D.How AI designs a personalised questionnaire. 4.What’s Pat’s attitude to the effect of the AI-powered chatbot?( ) A.Doubtful. B.Unclear. C.Positive. D.Negative. 七、七选五 Childhood and the teenage years can be filled with developmental challenges and social pressures. For some kids, social media is worsening these problems. If you’re worried about your children’s social media use, you can choose to simply confiscate(没收) their phone or other devices. 1. ___ In fact, there are other ways to help your children use social media in a more responsible way. 2. ___ The more you know about how your children are interacting on social media, the better you’ll be able to address any problems. Especially for kids struggling to manage their social media use on their own, parental control apps can be a necessary part of establishing healthy boundaries(界限). A tool like Qustodio is super helpful in setting time limits on apps so that you can help your children manage their social media use more effectively. Discuss the dangers of "oversharing". Educate your children about the risks of oversharing personal information or inappropriate content on social media. 3. ___ Depending on their age, you can show them plenty of frightening examples of what happens when kids are cheated online. Encourage exercise and offline interests. Spending too much time on social media can lead to little social contact, which can negatively impact mental health. Encourage your children to engage in activities or sports that involve face-to-face interactions with friends and peers. 4. ___ Teach digital etiquette(礼仪).
