Years ago, I celebrated my 40th with a large group of friends at a restaurant. As I stood on the sidewalk with my friends, a homeless man approached me and asked for money. I told him that I didn’t have any cash. He quietly smiled at me, and moved 1..
While 2.homeless man was still in earshot range, a friend who was just arriving called out, “Happy Birthday, Marc!” Upon hearing this, the man turned and asked, “Hey man, is it your Birthday?” “Yes, it is,” I said. He walked back to me, with a huge smile on his face, and said, “Happy Birthday, man!” I was completely unprepared for what happened next: the man reached into his pocket, pulled out a dollar bill, and gave it to me,3.(say) ,”Here man! Take this, Happy Birthday!”
Although I was deeply moved by this act of generosity,4.(accept) money from a homeless man was not within my comfort zone, so my 5.(respond) was,” Thanks! That’s very nice of you, but that’s OK.” The man looked 6.(direct) into my eyes and said,” Please brother, please take this. I feel so good,7.I always have a place to sleep and enough food to eat.” Finally, I reached out. He gave me the dollar, then held on for a moment and said, “Thank you, brother!”
Needless to say, that experience 8.(leave) me feeling like I had gained far more than $1!This was one of my 9.(great) life lessons showing that the essence(本质) of who we are is never defined by our human circumstances, and no matter how bad we may feel, we always have something of value 10.(share) with others.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台) in her general store. ______71_______ I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”
At first I was paid in candy. ________72______ I worked every day after school, and during the summer and no weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. ________73________
By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆) ideas. ________74________
The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. ________75________ Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.
A．Later I received 50 cents an hour. |
B．Before long, she let me sit there by myself. |
C．I ended up selling a record amount of cosmetics. |
D．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers. |
E.My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.
F.Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.
G.Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.
I believe in the power of the unknown. I believe that a sense of the unknown pushes us forward in all of our creative activities, from science to art.
When I was a child, after bedtime I would often go to the window and stare at the stars. I had so many questions. How far away were those tiny points of light? Did space go on forever and ever, or was there some edge? And if so, what lay beyond the edge?
Another of my childhood questions: Did time go on forever? I looked at pictures of my parents and tried to imagine their parents, and so on, back through the generations. Does time go on forever? Or is there some beginning of time?
When I grew up, I became a professional astrophysicist. Although I never answered any of these questions, they continued to challenge me, to haunt me, to drive me in my scientific research, and to cause me to live on tuna fish and no sleep for days at a time while I was crazy about a science problem. These same questions, and questions like them, challenge and haunt the leading scientists of today.
Einstein once wrote that “the most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the beginning of true art and true science.” What did Einstein mean by “the mysterious?” I don’t think he meant that science is full of unpredictable or unknowable or supernatural forces. I think that he meant a sense of awe, a sense that there are things larger than us, that we do not have all the answers at this moment, and that we can stand right at the boundary between known and unknown.
Scientists are happy, of course, when they find answers to questions. But scientists are also happy when they become stuck, when they discover interesting questions that they cannot answer. That is when their imaginations and creativity are set on fire. That is when the greatest progress occurs.

Artificial intelligence, or AI, has been applied in a wide range of fields to perform specific tasks, including education, finance, heavy industry, transportation, and so on.
Education
There are a number of companies that create robots to teach subjects to children ranging from biology to computer science, though such tools have not become widespread yet. Advancements in natural language processing, combined with machine learning, have also enabled automatic grading of assignments. AI has also led to an explosion in popularity of MOOCs, or Massive Open Online Courses, which allows students from around the world to take classes online.
Finance
Use of AI in banking can be tracked back to 1987. Banks use artificial intelligence systems to organize operations, maintain book-keeping, invest in stocks, and manage properties. Also, systems are being developed, like Atria, to translate complex data into simple and personable language. There are also wallets, like Wallet AI, which monitor an individual’s spending habits and provides ways to improve them.
Heavy industry
Robots have become common in many industries and are often given jobs that are considered dangerous to humans. Robots have proven effective in jobs that are very repetitive which may lead to mistakes or accidents due to failure in concentration and other jobs which humans may find degrading.
Transportation
Today’S cars can have AI-based driver assist features such as self-parking and advanced cruise controls. AI in transportation is expected to provide safe, efficient, and reliable transportation while minimizing the impact on the environment and communities.
Toys and games
Companies like Mattel have been creating AI-enabled toys for kids as young as age three. Using proprietary AI engines and speech recognition tools, they are able to understand conversations, give intelligent responses and learn quickly. AI has also been applied to video games, for example video game bots, which are designed to stand in as opponents where humans aren’t available or desired.
1.Which is true about AI and education?
A.Robots have been widely used to teach children.
B.AI has been used to grade students’ homework.

2.Which can be inferred from the passage?
A.Atria can help people understand complex data.
B.Wallet AI can help people make more money.
C.Robots’ jobs are considered dangerous to humans.
D.Robots can help people concentrate.
3.From the last two paragraphs we can know that_______________.

B.AI ensures safe, efficient, and reliable transportation
C.AI-enabled toys is designed to improve kids’ intelligence
D.Video game bots can fight against you in video games
