17、? A. Hermitage Amsterdam.B. Stedelijk C. National Holocaust Museum D. Dutch Resistance MuseumBBorn in Shanghai in 1981, Yang Ji studied accounting in college before becoming a civil servant in 2005, fulfilling his parents wishes of him securing a stable job. But he only lasted a year in that role. “

18、Ive loved animals since I was a child. I raised many animals, such as goldfish, turtles and pigeons during my school years,” he says. “Raising animals was my hobby and my dream.”Yang made a career switch in 2006, and started working at a chicken farm to learn about breeding birds. “The first five ye

19、ars were very difficult for me. I made many mistakes along the way, but I also learned a lot,” he says. “For example, there are huge differences between raising a chicken and a swan.”He shared that the first swans he bought eventually became crippled ( 瘸的 ), and some even died, even though he went t

20、o great lengths to feed them good food and ensure that their pens were warm. But after consulting with experienced experts, he learned that the animals just needed to eat grass. In addition, the swans should not have been cooped up in their pens but let out to exercise in the cold water.He then went

21、 to learn more about the trade with experienced bird keepers and experts from zoos, working alongside them for days and observing how they raised the animals.In 2011, Yang bought a small, deserted zoo and renovated ( 改造 ) it for his rare-bird breeding center. In 2014, he received his license to bree

22、d first-tier protected animals from the National Forestry and Grassland Administration. He has since introduced several endangered birds to his center.“Theyre all native species in China and Ive succeeded in breeding and raising their babies,” he says. His breeding center, which supplies birds to zo

23、os around China, isnt all about profit. Yang says that he is planning to release some endangered birds to help grow the population in the wild. “I am passionate with my work and never feel exhausted,” he says. “Living with the birds and seeing them every day makes me a happy man.”24. Yang Ji started

24、 working at a chicken farm because _.A. he loved raising chickens B. he wanted to learn bird raisingC. chickens were much easier to raise D. he had a preference for small animals25.

Yang Ji and His Birds B. From Chickens to SwansC. A Successful Career Switch D. Flying High with His DreamsCOlaf Stapledon wrot

27、e a book called First and Last Men, in which he looked millions of years ahead. He told of different men and of strange civilizations, broken up by long “dark ages” in between. In his view, what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men. In 2,

28、000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men.However, most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted. Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years. But the next hundred? The next thousand? The next million? Thats much more difficult.When men

29、 and women lived by hunting 50,000 years ago, how could they even begin to picture modern life? Yet to men of 50,000 years from now, we may seem as primitive in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us. Perhaps they will spend their days gollocking to make new spundels, or struggling with their b

30、allalators through the cribe. These words, which I have just made up, have to stand for things and ideas that we simply cant think of.So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future? Here are two reasons. First, unless we remember how short our own lives are compared with the whole human

31、history, we are likely to think our own interests are much more important than they really are. If we make the earth a poor place to live because we are careless or greedy or quarrelsome, our grandchildren will not bother to think of excuses for us.Second, by trying to escape from present interests

32、and imagine life far in the future, we may arrive at quite fresh ideas that we can use ourselves. For example, if we imagine that in the future men may give up farming, we can think of trying it now. So set your imagination free when you think about the future.28.A particular mention made of Stapled

Musk told followers in Twitter the technology would be “coming soon” though he failed to provide details.Neuralink was set up in 2016 with the ambitious goal of developing hardware t

37、o strengthen the human brain. However, little about how this will work has been made public. Neuralink describes the interface as an extremely high-speed connection between the human brain and computers.Musk has frequently claimed the rapid rise of artificial intelligence poses an existential risk t

38、o humanity. Such an interface, he says, is essential if humans are to compete with such technology in the future. At a technology conference in 2016, Mr. Musk said humans risked being treated like house pets by AI machines if a brain-computer interface was not built. Last year on the Joe Rogan Exper

39、ience podcast, Musk said Neuralinks technology would allow humans to “effectively combine with AI”.A paper published in Nature Nanotechnology in 2015 described a concept for this connection, explaining how a flexible circuit ( 回路 ) could be injected into a living brain. “Were trying to lessen the di

40、stinction between electronic circuits and neural circuits,” said Harvard researcher Charles Lieber, who co-authored the study. Despite the technologys potential to increase the human brain, experts have warned that brain-computer interfaces risk being controlled by vicious ( 恶意的 ) artificial intelli

41、gence.Such an action could lead to AI controlling the thoughts, decisions and emotions of a person using a brain-computer link. “Technological developments mean that we are on a path to a world in which it will be possible to discover peoples mental processes and directly operate the brain mechanism
