Wall Disease
Jessica Wapner The Experiment（2020）
Since the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, border walls have multiplied, notes science journalist Jessica Wapner in her global survey. In the decade after the September 2001 terrorist attacks, 47 appeared worldwide; Wapner investigates their geography and psychological effects. “Wall disease” consists of fear, isolation, a sense of immobility, financial insecurity and suspicion of “the other” on the far side.
The Brutish Museums
Dan Hicks Pluto（2020）
This timely book echoes the British Museum’s decision this year to redisplay a bust（半身像）of its founder with labels about his links to the slave trade. Dan Hicks is a curator（馆长）at the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, UK, which, like the British Museum, holds many prized objects robbed by colonial forces in 1897 from Benin, in what is now Nigeria. Rejecting the view of Oxford colleague John Boardman that “the rape proved to be a rescue”, Hicks fiercely advocates that “brutish” museums urgently begin restoration of stolen objects.
A Manual of the Mammalia
Douglas A. Kelt & James L. Patton Univ. Chicago Press（2020）
The subtitle of this comprehensive reference book terms it “an homage” to Timothy Lawlor’s acclaimed Handbook to the Orders and Families of Living Mammals. As wildlife ecologist Douglas Kelt and mammal curator James Patton note, Lawlor’s final edition featured about 4,170 species of mammal; today’s figure is 6,495. “Do not be overwhelmed,” they advise students, “Simply be happy about the diversity of the Mammalia.”
Yellowstone Wolves
Eds Douglas W. Smith et al. Univ. Chicago Press（2020）
Twenty-five years ago, the authors reintroduced wolves to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. Here, they relate what they’ve learnt of the animals’predation, mating, play, genetics, disease and more, and their impact on other species and the landscape. Also detailed are the history, politics and implications ofrewilding. Glorious pictures bear witness to fragile gains. US President Donald Trump’s silver-anniversary gift? Rolling back protections on the wolves.

I don’t know about you, but I used to hate school.
However, there’s a school in Penang that makes learning so enjoyable that its students look forward to attending classes every day. Some students even threatened their parents they’d run away from home if they missed any of the school activities! And it’s all owing to the school principal. Who is this legend, you might ask?
He’s S. Sangga, a 57-year-old headmaster at SJK （T） Sungai Ara, Penang. The school started adopting the fun learning approach since Sangga was transferred to the school in 2011. A few floors in the school had been painted with games like snakes and ladders, as well as teng teng. Not only that, there are particular reading corners as well as computers set up just for the students to discover and learn about new things! Since then, the students have been arriving extra early at 6: 30 a. m., just to have some fun before classes start at 7: 40 a. m!
If you think that’s all, you’re wrong.
Mr Sangga is an supporter for environmental protection and preservation. The school takes the students for walks in the surrounding areas every Friday, and they’ll take them to collect garbage in selected areas every Saturday. The students have since become responsible “anti trash heroes” by making a stand for our environment. The school has also banned the use of plastic, as well as fast food and junk food. Not only do the students practice this at school, but they start to take their knowledge home to educate their family!
Sadly, Mr Sangga will retire in three years, and he hopes that the students and teachers would
continue their practice.
24. Why did some students threaten to leave home?
A. Because they hate attending school.
B. Because they are not allowed to go to school.
C. Because they have to do a large amount of housework.
D. Because they possibly lose the chance of participating in school activities.
25. Which word of the following can best describe the school’s teaching style?
A. Strict. B. Happy. C. Boring. D. Arbitrary.
26. What does students walk around every Friday for?
A. To have fun. B. To identify trash. C. To build up body. D. To collect garbage.
27. Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?
A. A news report. B. A book review. C. A government report. D. A science magazine.
C
Meet Jill Watson, a first-time teaching assistant at Georgia Tech assigned to host an online forum（论坛）for a computer science class. Jill was 1 of 9 teachers assigned to help answer questions about coursework and projects from the 300 students in the advanced course.
“The world is full of online classes, and they’re troubled with low retention（保留）rates,” said Professor Ashok Goel, head of Georgia Tech’s online program. “One of the main reasons many students drop out is because they don’t receive enough feedback（反馈）from the teachers.”
Now a typical class posts approximately 10, 000 messages in a given semester. During the first few weeks in January, Jill really struggled. After all, this is a course with the goal of building AI agents. Even though many of these questions were routine, the other teachers monitored Jill’s answers until they saw improvement. Eventually, Jill got her bearings. By the end of March, she was freely responding to students’ questions.
However, near the end of April, Professor Goel had to come clean to the students: Jill was in fact software powered by IBM Watson. Because of how well Jill performed her tasks, Goel plans on bringing her back next semester under a different name with the goal of accurately answering 40 percent of all questions by the end of the year.
How did students respond to the news that they had an AI among them? “It seemed very much like a normal conversation with a human being, and my questions got answered quickly, ”said student Jennifer Gavin. However, this is likely not how the general public would react. In a recent online survey, nearly 80 percent of participants opposed imparting（赋予）AI with emotions or personality. Additionally, 60 percent felt that AI would lead to fewer jobs in a decade’s time, with 27 percent indicating that decline would be significant.
Watson is demonstrating in the case of Jill Watson, no teachers lost their jobs. But if the AI can handle 40 percent of students’ inquiries, will they really need 8 humans in years ahead?
28. What causes many online classes to get low retention rates according to Goel?
A. Too advanced courses.
B. Unqualified teaching assistants.
C. A lack of after-class teaching support.
D. A lack of an online forum for students’ discussion.
29. What does the underlined part “Jill got her bearings” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Jill won the students’ approval.
B. Jill became confident about her work.
C. Jill passed the course of building AI agents.
D. Jill received assistance from other teachers.
30. What is most surveyed participants’ attitude to Georgia Tech’s Watson program?
A. Optimistic. B. Defensive. C. Disapproving. D. Casual.
31. What does the author say about Jill in the last paragraph?
A. She will cause some job losses.
B. She will be given some teaching tasks.
C. She will handle fewer students’ inquiries.
D. She will be rid of emotions and personality
D
China will establish coordination（协调）mechanisms at both regional and national levels to promote coordinated efforts to protect the country’s longest waterway, according to the newly passed Yangtze River Protection Law, the nation’s first such legislation.
Adopted on Saturday after a third review by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress—the country’s top legislature, the law states that a national mechanism will guide and coordinate Yangtze conservation work in accordance with the principle of “promoting well-coordinated enviromnental conservation and avoiding excessive development”.
Aside from deliberating（审议）on major protection policies and planning, the mechanism will also conduct coordination, of major transregional and departmental issues, as well as supervise and inspect the completion of major Yangtze conservation work, according to the law, which will take effect on March 1.
Governments of the 19 provincial-level regions in the river basin, including Jiangxi and Hubei provinces and Shanghai, will draft local laws, regulations and planning in a coordinated manner. These regions will also cooperate with each other in rolling out supervision and law enforcement measures to create coordination to systematically protect and develop the entire Yangtze basin.
Drafted in accordance with local characteristics of the basin and its outstanding issues, the law aims to “promote green transformation of economic and social development in all respects in the Yangtze basin and realize harmonious coexistence of people and nature”, said Wang Ruihe, an official with the NPC Standing Committee’s Legislative Affairs Commission. “Yangtze protection work is multifaceted（多方面的）and complicated,” Wang said. In addition to central and local governments, work needs to coordinate different reaches of the river, industries and laws, Wang added.
The new legislation also imposes various bans and restrictions on activities with environmental dangers and introduces heavier punishments for violations.
32. Why will coordination mechanisms be established?
A. To pass the Yangtze River Protection Law.
B. To protect the Yangtze River.
C. To improve the coordinated efforts.
D. To ensure regional harmony.
33. What will the 19 provincial-level governments do to create coordination?
A. They will supervise each other in a coordinated manner.
B. They plan to regulate the manner of coordination.
C. They will cooperate with each other in all aspects.
D. They will develop an inspection system for the entire Yangtze basin.
34. Which of the following may Wang agree with?
A. The law will promote all aspects of economical development.
B. The law will promote ecological harmony in the Yangtze basin.
C. The law will promote the steady transformation of society.
D. The law will promote the coexistence of living things in nature.
35. What might be explained next?
A. What activities will be punished.
B. What reaches of coordinate are needed for protection.
C. How these local governments cooperate.
