Dear Ms J．K.Rowling，
It is great pleasure to write to you. I like reading all of your Harry Potter book. A few days before，I listened to a radio programme about you. Now I know that you teach English at home and in others countries before you started writing books. I also know that you could only write the first book while your baby daughter was asleep，so you worked on them for five years. That was a very much difficult job. Your son David and your daughter Jessica must be proud for you. I hope I can become as successfully as you when I grow up. Thank you for spending time read my letter.
Yours sincerely，
Michele

Dear Jim,
I’m writing to show my sincere appreciation for the book you gave it me before you left China. This book is great help to me in vocabulary study, allowing me to memorize words and expressions quickly. You know, at one time in the past, I have difficulty remembering words exact. Much to my joys, the tips in the book is very efficient. By following the tips, I have enlarged my vocabulary and made many progress in my English study, that makes me feel proud of myself. Thank you again for your kind and precious gift. I’ m looking forward to see you again.
Yours,
Li Hua
参考答案：

1.此句the book you gave it me包含一个定语从句，the book做先行词，在定语从句中做宾语，所以it是多余的，故把it去掉。
2. help是一个抽象名词，所以在great前面加of构成介词短语做表语；也可在great前面加a，表示抽象名词具体化。
3.根据句中in the past可知句子用一般过去时态，故把have---had。
4.副词修饰动词，故把exact---exactly。
5.固定搭配：to one’s joy使某人高兴的是，此处joy是抽象名词，故把joys-joy。
6.此处the tips是句子主语，复数形式，故把is---are。
7. 句中progress是不可数名词，故把many---much。
8.前面整个句子作先行词，后面用which引导非限制性定语从句，故把that---which。
9.形容词性物主代词修饰名词，故把kind---kindness。
10.固定搭配：look forward to sth./doing sth. 期盼某事或做某事。故把see---seeing。
【名师点睛】
1.动词或动词词组后面用动名词作宾语
enjoy；finish；avoid；be fond of ；give up ；look forward to； get down to； devote---to---； be used to (习惯) ；spend---(in) doing sth.； object to；look forward to 。
2.mean doing意味着做某事， mean to do打算做某事； regret doing后悔曾经做过某事，regret to do遗憾地去做某事； try doing 尝试做某事，try to do努力去做某事； forget doing 忘记曾做过某事，forget to do 忘记要去做某事；remember doing记得曾经做过某事， remember to do记得要去做某事。
三、 阅读理解
21. Hollywood's theory that machines with evil(邪恶的) minds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly. The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence(AI) may become extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener, who founded the field of cybernetics(控制论), put it this way: “If we use, to achieve our purposes, a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot effectively interfere(干预), we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire.”
A machine with a specific purpose has another quality, one that we usually associate with living things: a wish to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor is it something introduced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetching coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we could face a kind of global chess match against very determined, super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict with our own, with the real world as the chessboard.
The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of computer scientists. Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a kind of firewall, using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world. Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans, let alone super intelligent machines.
Solving the safety problem well enough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not easy. There are probably decades in which to plan for the arrival of super intelligent machines. But the problem should not be dismissed out of hand, as it has been by some AI researchers. Some argue that humans and machines can coexist as long as they work in teams—yet that is not possible unless machines share the goals of humans. Others say we can just “switch them off” as if super intelligent machines are too stupid to think of that possibility. Still others think that super intelligent AI will never happen. On September 11, 1933, famous physicist Ernest Rutherford stated, with confidence, “Anyone who expects a source of power in the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine.” However, on September 12, 1933, physicist Leo Szilard invented the neutron-induced中子诱导) nuclear chain reaction.
32.Paragraph 1 mainly tells us that artificial intelligence may ________．
A．run out of human control B．satisfy human's real desires
C．     command armies of killer robots D．work faster than a mathematician
33.Machines with specific purposes are associated with living things partly because they might be able to ________．
A．prevent themselves from being destroyed B．achieve their original goals independently
C．     do anything successfully with given orders D．beat humans in international chess matches
34.According to some researchers, we can use firewalls to ________．
A．help super intelligent machines work better B．be secure against evil human beings
C．     keep machines from being harmed D．avoid robots' affecting the world
35.What does the author think of the safety problem of super intelligent machines?
A．It will disappear with the development of AI.
B．It will get worse with human interference.
C．It will be solved but with difficulty.
D．It will stay for a decade.

22. Every day, in all kinds of weather, thousands of men and women jog. Why has jogging-running slowly for long distances become so popular? Most joggers begin because they hear it is a very good exercise. Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight. It can also help them feel better about themselves.
Donald Robbins, who is forty-two years old and works in an office, began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was too fat. At first he could only run about 100 yards. It took him three months to be able to run a mile. But two years later, he ran in a marathon race over twenty-six miles. Many joggers, like Donald Robbins, feel that if they can succeed in jogging, they can succeed at other things also, and quite often this feeling helps them at their jobs.
Should you jog too? If you do, be sure to ask your doctor for advice. Jogging may be too much exercise for you.
Does jogging cost much? No, it costs almost nothing. But it is very important to have a good pair of shoes that are made especially for jogging. They protect your feet and legs from the shock of running on hard surface.
How fast should you go? Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run. If you have difficulty in talking, you’re going too fast.
How far should you jog? Remember not to go too far too soon. In fact, you should walk, not run, the first few times. Then do some short jogs, but no more than what you can do comfortably. After that, increase your distance a quarter or half mile every two weeks or so. Maybe in a few years, you can run in a marathon too. Thousands of people do.

   A jogging as a sport                     B. jogging as an exercise
