19、e, as I don t actually have an answer to that. For more than three years, I have been making movements with the universe, traveling from location to location at seemingly random intervals. A friend of mine posted a Facebook status asking if anybody was interested in a job teaching English in China.

20、So I jumped on a coming plane. Walking into my first class, I was bombed by 16 strange children who couldnt understand a single word out of my mouth. When I walked out of my last class, six months later, I had made a personal connection with them. Some of my students could barely speak Chinese or En

21、glish. But somehow, through determination and force, we connected. Every class was not only a lesson in English, but in good fellowship, being a role model, being a parent, and being a friend. I became a father to some, an older brother to others. I was loved and adored, feared and hated. I had to l

22、earn discipline, and not only how to deal it out, but how to discipline and conduct myself as a role model. But in between the discipline, I had to make learning a fun experience. And they forgave me when I yelled or got upset. And when they threw temper or bruised their knee or missed their mommy,

23、I forgave them, kissed their bruises better, and gave them a shoulder to cry on. Teaching English in China is, by far, the most emotionally rewarding and fulfilling thing Ive ever challenged myself to do. I have walked away from this job with a softened heart, knowing that I have made a difference i

24、n so many lives. I want that. I want my teachings to be reciprocal because they taught me how to unconditionally open my heart and how lo be a more 1oving and patient person. 24.

27、r the unfortunate nickname “ jackass penguins” because they communicate through honking, donkey-like sounds. Laugh at them if you like, but a new study suggests that their jackass language act actually follows the same basic rules as ours. In the study published in the journal Biology Letters, resea

28、rchers recorded nearly 600 vocalizations (发声) from 28 adult male penguins living in Italian zoos. (Males tend to vocalize 8 lot during the mating period, which is why the researchers turned to this population). The scientists knew from previous research that African penguins bonk using three distinc

29、t types of sound, similar to human syllables (音节), when greeting one another, mating，or defending territory. But the researchers wanted to know whether those “syllables” followed two common linguistic (语言学的) rules. One of those rules, called Zipfs law in short, was proposed in 1945 by the linguist G

30、eorge Zipf. The law states that the more frequently a word is used in any language, the shorter it tends to be (think of words like “the,” “to” and “of” in English). Previous studies have analyzed more than 1. 000 world languages for evidence of Zipfs 1aw. and the rule holds up in all of then. The o

31、ther rule, known as the Menzerath-Altmann law, says that the longer a word or phrase is, the shorter its comtuponen1 syllables are, while shorter words are more likely to have longer syllables. The word “onomatopoeia,” for example, is made of six very short syllables, while “couch” is made of one lo

32、nger one. Previous studies have shown that nonhuman primates (灵长类动物) follow both these rules when they communicate with each other. but what about jackass penguins? The researchers in the new study found that, yes, the songs of the male jackass penguin conform to both Zipfs and Menzerath- Altmann? s

33、 laws; The shortest calls tended to be the most common, and the longest phrases were made up of the shortest syllables. This jackass study provided the first nonprimate evidence that these common linguistic pal1erns extend into the animal kingdom, the authors wrote, and that s nothing to hem and haw

34、 at. 28. Why did the researchers choose adult male jackass penguins? A. They can vocalize different kinds of sounds. B. They are more accessible than other penguins. C. They communicate with each other through honking. D). They make sounds frequently during the mating period. 29. What does the autho

35、r try to express by mentioning the words “the”, “to” and “of” in English? A. George Zipfs idea is reasonable. B. These words are extremely simple. C. Previous studies ate very meaningful. D. English is quite similar to other languages. - 5 - 30. Which of the following fully explains what the Menzera

36、th- Altmann law means? A. Egg and food. B. Contradictory and shout. C. Learn and earn. D. Discrimination and prescription. 31. What conclusion has the new study made? A. Many languages follow the same linguistic rules. B. How Jackass penguins communicate wi1h each other. C. Jackass penguins obey lin

37、guistic rules similar to those of humans. D. ZipFs law and Menzerath Alumann law are commonly applied rules. D Much of the information that is sent back from space is useless. Pictures taken by satellites orbiting the Earth might take days to download, only to show lots of cloud hiding the area of i

38、nterest. The subject matter may also be surrounded by irrelevant information. Processing data in space before sending back would reduce unnecessary information, but this can be tricky. Rays in the universe randomly flip the ones and zeroes that computers operate on, introducing unpredictable errors.

39、 High levels of radiation can also damage electronic circuits (电子 电路). KP Labs, based in Poland, is building a satellite to overcome some of these problems. Their device, called Inuition-1. is controlled by a neural network, a form of artificial intelligence modeled on the human brain. Intuition- l

40、will be equipped with a hyperspectral imager (超光谱成像仪), which takes 150 pictures of every scene it looks at. Each picture is at a different frequency, so contains different information. The neural network pieces these together using powerful graphics chips (芯片) hardened against radiation. The develop

41、ers have also built error correction into their software. But instead of sending back every bit of image data, the satellite will summarize what the user requests as useful information. This might, for instance, be a heat map showing areas o weeds in a field or the location of a forest fire. Reducin

42、g the data loud means that. some of the information can be sent live. The satellite will be used to prove that a hardened neural network can survive in space. This could pave the way for other space applications. For example, the Curiosity rover (探测器) on Mars was successfully upgraded in 2016 with a

43、 set of algorithms to detect “interesting” rocks for investigation, instead of picking them randomly. A neural network could provide future rovers and deep-space probes with a better ability to make decisions. The neural network and hyperspectral imager have already been built and tested by KP labs.

44、 They will go into a satellite body being constructed by Clyde Space. After that there will be more intelligence in space. 32. Why docs the author say processing data in the universe can be very tricky? A Rays and radiation disturbs data processing. B. The pictures taken by satellites are not so cle

It can survive much longer in space. C. It can correct mistakes from users request. D. It can improve the stab
