A hotel that calls itself the world's first “polar bear hotel” has opened in northeastern China. The Polar Bear Hotel
is part of the Harbin Polarland amusement park in Harbin, the capital and largest city in Heilongjiang province.
It opened earlier this month and promised that guests would be able to see live polar bears from all 21 guest rooms.
“Whether you're eating, playing or sleeping, polar bears will keep you company,” Harbin Polarland said in a statement
on the WeChat messenger service. Photos and videos from Chinese state media showed people watching two polar
bears in a closed, indoor space with artificial ice and small pools of water.
Yang Liu is a spokeswoman for Harbin Polarland. She told Reuters that the indoor area is the only part of the
bears' total living space. She said they are also let outdoors when temperature and air quality permits. Liu added there
has been “very high” interest in staying at the hotel, where rooms cost from about $290 to $351 a night.
But some animal rights activists have criticized the hotel. Jason Baker is vice president at animal rights group
PETA. He told Reuters, “Polar bears belong in the Arctic, not in zoos or glass boxes in aquariums — and certainly not
in hotels.” He added, “Polar bears are active for up to 18 hours a day in nature, roaming home ranges that can scan
thousands of miles, where they enjoy a real life.”
In 2016, a shopping center in the southern city of Guangzhou drew worldwide criticism after videos showed a
polar bear named Pizza lying on her side in a glass-walled area.
Harbin Polarland was established in 2005. It calls itself the world's first polar performing arts amusement park.
4. What makes the Polar Bear Hotel in Harbin unique?
A. Guests can watch polar bears in their room.
B. Polar bears will play with tourists.
C. Tourists have chances to film videos with polar bears.
D. Guests can touch polar bears in outdoor space.
5. What's Jason Baker's attitude towards the Polar Bear Hotel?
.
A. Ambiguous B. Critical. C. Positive. D. Favorable.
6. What can we learn about polar bears?
A. It's secure for them to stay in the zoo.
B. They can enjoy a happy life in glass boxes in aquariums.
C. They fall asleep in most of the time in nature.
D. The range of their activity can cover thousands of miles.
7. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A science report. B. A travel brochure. C. A textbook. D. A news report.
C
It's no surprise that stress and anxiety are often viewed in a negative light, but Lisa Damour, a private-practice
psychologist, suggests they're not always bad for us. She claims that a little bit of both can help build mental resilience
and these experiences can sometimes benefit us.
Damour explained how stress often occurs when people operate at the edge of their abilities - when they pushthemselves or are forced by situations to stretch beyond their familiar limits. This can result from both bad and good
events, she said. For instance, being fired is stressful, but so is bringing a baby home for the first time. She described
how stress is unavoidable in daily life and that medium levels of stress “can have an inoculating function”, which can
lead to “higher than average resilience” when we face new difficulties.
,
“Anxiety gets an unnecessarily bad comment ” she said, “Anxiety is an alarm system inside the body, likely
handed down by evolution, which informs us of threats from both outside, such as a driver turning aside suddenly, and
inside, such as when we've wasted too much time and it's time to get started on a task.”
Viewing anxiety as sometimes helpful or even protective allows people to make good use of it, suggests Damour.
For example, she often tells the teenagers she works with in her practice to pay attention if they start to feel anxious at a
party because their nerves may be warning them of a problem.
8. When do people feel stressed according to Damour?
A. They have much work to do. B. They lose their favorite things.
C. They deal with different situations. D. They're engaged in doing unfamiliar things.
9. What does the underlined word “inoculating” probably mean in paragraph 2?
A. Unexpected. B. Unbearable. C. Positive. D. Determining.
10. What's the purpose of paragraph 3?
A. To explain the reason for being anxious. B. To demonstrate the benefits of anxiety.
C. To state the risk of being anxious. D. To present the solution to anxiety.
11. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Stress and anxiety aren't always bad. B. Stress and anxiety are part of our lives.
C. We should focus on positive things in life. D. We should deal with stress and anxiety carefully.
D
Many researchers use the term artificial intelligence (AI) to describe the thinking and intelligent behavior by
machines. While AI can be helpful to human beings, scientists warn it can also be a threat.
Stuart Russell, who teaches computer science at the University of California, Berkeley, says humans should make
AI products that we like.
“In the future,"Russell says, “many of today's jobs that require a lot of physical labor will be replaced by machines
with artificial intelligence. These include agricultural jobs, and ones with repetitive duties like telephone call centers.
Al machines can also replace jobs like ones in the financial industry-jobs that require studying a lot of data."
The health industry is one area that artificial intelligence is already changing. AI can process huge amounts of data,
so doctors can use the most up-to-date information to diagnose and treat patients.
IBM's Watson technology is already in use at hospitals in North and South America, Europe and Asia. Watson
helps doctors keep up with information.
There is also a dangerous side of artificial intelligence. One example is combining drone technology and AI to
create autonomous weapons.
Stuart Russell is working to create international treaties to ban such weapons. He says the risk is that people will
use the technology to develop a kind of “poor men's nuclear weapon”.IBM's Banavar points out the value of artificial intelligence, including search engines and the autopilot function on
planes.
The debate about whether artificial intelligence is good or bad for humans continues. Researchers agree there is no
question that the technology is here, and that will continue to change the life on our planet.
12. What can be inferred from Russell's words in paragraph 3?
A. People's lives are becoming better.
B. Machines are cleverer and cleverer.
C. More people are in danger of unemployment.
D. People are bored with today's physical jobs.
13. According to Banavar, which of the following statements is the value of Artificial Intelligence?
A. Machines with AI can take the place of human beings.
B. Machines with AI can help doctors treat and diagnose all diseases.
C. Machines with AI can only fly a plane by itself without the need for a pilot.
D. Machines with AI can be used in many fields, search engines included.
14. What do the researchers most probably agree with?
A. AI is definitely changing human life.
.
B AI will change our life for the better.
C. More people are needed in developing AI.
D. AI is a big threat to people in the future.
15. What is the best title of the text?
A. The Wide Usage of AI
B. AI: a Double-edged Sword
C. A Breakthrough in Developing AI
D. AI: a Threat for Humans
