"The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work,and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific. A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence,social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence. The report is based on interviews with 200 experts,business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific,Europe and North America.It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates. But the report states:"Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs-just changing what people do."Growth in new jobs could occur as much,according to the research. "The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,"it states. A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and 得分 主题阅读训练 believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years.The optimists pictured "a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,"according to Aaron Smith,the report's co-author. "Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people,when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs.There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,Microsoft's Jonathan Grudin told researchers. 1.We can infer from the text that in the future A.people will face many difficulties B.people will take up more creative jobs C.artificial intelligence will threaten people's lives D.most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces 2.According to the report, A.people won't necessarily lose jobs B.big companies will face fewer challenges C.small companies will win against big companies D.most people will become interested in technology 3.What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future? A.Mixed. B.Worried. C.Hopeful. D.Doubtful. 班级 姓名 4.Jonathan Grudin's words in the last paragraph suggest that A.there will be enough jobs for people B.things will change a lot in a few years C.many people will become unemployed D.technology will totally change future jobs B The plan:turn the Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields,and then fill it with creatures from the earth.This idea may sound like something from science fiction,but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggests the future for the "red planet"will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA this week.Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event.It comes as NASA is preparing a multi-billion-dollar Mars research programme. "Turning the Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction,"said Dr. Michael Meyer,NASA's senior scientist. "Now,with scientists exploring the reality, we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing the Mars."Most scientists agree that the Mars could be turned into a little earth,although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal.But many experts are shocked by the idea."We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet,said Paul Murdin from the Institute of Astronomy,Cambridge,UK. Over the past months,scientists have become increasingly confident they will find 1 得分 Martian life forms.Europe and America's robot explorers have found the proof that water,mixed with soil,exists in large amounts on the planet. In addition,two different groups of scientists announced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane(甲烷)in the Martian atmosphere;the gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes(微生物)living in the red planet's soil.But scientists such as Dr.Lisa Pratt, a biologist at Indiana University,say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project. "Before we have even discovered if there is life on the Mars,we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms,all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,”said Dr.Pratt. Monica Grady,a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum,London,shares this view."We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for,"she said. “This is just wrong.” 5.Why is Dr.Lisa Pratt against the plan? A.Water has been found on the Mars. B.It will cost too much money and work. C.The native life forms on the Mars would be destroyed. D.The earth is being destroyed at an unbelievable speed. 6.What could prove the existence of microbes living in the Mars'soil? A.Liquid water on the Mars. 班级 姓名 B.Some creatures on the Mars. C.A lot of good soil on the Mars. D.Signs of methane in the Mars'atmosphere. 7.What can we infer from the passage? A.Water is a key factor for life;without it, living on the Mars would be impossible. B.The project won't affect the native life forms supposed to live on the Mars. C.The idea turning the Mars into a little earth is nothing but science fiction. D.Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth project. 8.What is the passage mainly about? A.A plan turning the Mars into a little earth. B.The necessity of changing the Mars. C.Finding water on the Mars. D.The Mars supporting life. C More than a century ago,scientists first mapped the brain as they worked to develop an understanding of each particular region.Early on,the maps were simple:Which part of the brain controlled speech?Which controlled hearing? Now,however,things are much more intricate.Researchers have just released an incredible new map of the brain,revealing nearly 100 new areas that were previously undiscovered or forgotten.Many experts are calling this a milestone in neuroscience according to The New York Times.The new map has been published in the journal Nature. The researchers drew on data collected by the Human Connectome Project,in which 1,200 people were studied with high-powered 得分 MRI scanners to understand how brain circuitry(大脑神经元回路)works.For the study,the participants'brains were recorded while they lay in the scanner,while they did various math problems and memory tests,and while they listened to stories.Researchers drew boundaries based on where these and previous tests seemed to match.They also looked at anatomical(解剖的)differences, measuring,for example,the amount of myelin (髓磷脂)一a fatty substance that surrounds some neurons in different areas of the brain. With all those variables(变量)in hand, researchers eventually created a map that included 83 already familiar areas of the brain,plus an additional 97 regions that were either previously undiscovered,or somehow forgotten and lost in scientific literature along the way.Some previously known regions are now broken down into sub- regions with separate responsibilities.For example, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is a large area toward the front of the brain that's active during thought.The new map shows that it's made up of many smaller areas that can be key to different kinds of thought,ranging from making decisions to lying. While experts are praising the new map, it's far from complete,say the researchers who created it. “We're thinking of this as version 1.0,”says lead author Matthew Glasser,a neuroscientist at Washington University School of Medicine."That doesn't mean it's the final version,but it's a far better map than the ones we've had before. 班级 姓名 9.What does the underlined word“intricate” in the second paragraph mean? A.Amazing. B.Tricky. C.Complicated. D.Difficult. 10.What's the researchers'attitude to the new map of the brain? A.They think it is the best version. B.They think it is still incomplete. C.They don't like it. D.They think it is a milestone in neuroscience. 11.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.The new map included 97 unfamiliar areas of the brain. B.The researchers used previous data to study brain circuitry. C.The participants'brains were monitored when they were telling stories. D.The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is a small area which is crucial for thinking. 12.What is the main idea of the passage? A.The responsibility of brain circuitry. B.Mixed opinions on the new map of the brain. C.An incredible new map of the brain. D.The understanding of the familiar areas of the brain. Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life.1 By 2048,some futurologists foresee that some “talking”buildings will appear in our life.. By the middle of the century,it's believed that buildings will be able to“talk”to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on.2 Instead,a lot of 1 得分 networks will appear,which can be compared to a human nervous system.In the next 30 years,buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials.All of them can heal themselves at that time.3 there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings.German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi. By mid-century,scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall.Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities.By comparison,at present,the world's tallest building,the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, measures 829.8 metres high.4 their windows will be replaced by virtual screens.In this way,people can choose any view as they like. At height extremes,a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly.There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible.5 A.As cities are being very crowded. B.As a result,there will be no switches. C.As the future building can rise through the clouds, D.As architects are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, E.They are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. F.Therefore,a Spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km,using carbon-based materials. G.What is more likely,though,is that planes will become smarter and may even become autonomous.
