They encouraged students to study (23)they were 18and then to go to university. Secondary modern school

13、 students left at 16, usually with fewer qualifications than grammar school students. Baz says the secondary modern school had (24) (few) resources and the quality of teaching was not as good.Things have changed.

Many people saythat comprehensive schools help more children to succeed because they provide everybody (27) similar opportunit

15、ies in a fairer way. Another view, though, is that more intelligent children, especially (28) from poor homes are better supported at grammar schools. Now, the government plans to open new grammar schools (29) almost two million children will go to the same type of school that Paul attended.And Paul

16、 and Baz? Aged 60, they met again and compared (30)had happened to them. Afteruniversity, Paul qualified as a teacher. Baz went to work in a factory at 16 and later became an engineer.

18、d of this insect, immediatebut it turns out that the mosquito is actually quite a(n) 31 creature.A term of scientists from Oxford University in the UK, in 32 with the Royal Veterinary College in London and Chiba University in Japan, recently published a study that found some interesting facts about

19、the world' s 3 m3 oisntsect.By placing eight cameras inside a tiny film studio, the scientists could study several mosquitoes up close. The high-tech cameras filmed the insects at 1,000 frames per second, meaning the scientists were able to study the insects 34 in nev'er-before- seen detail.

20、 However, it wasn' t always straightforward.“ Recording mosquitoes during free-flight represented a huge technical challenge due to their small size, 35 wing beat frequency, and the presence of large antennae and legs that can 36 the view of their wings,” SWimaolnk er of Oxford University, co-au

21、thor of the study, wrote.Published in the journal Nature, the study found that mosquitoes flap their wings around 800 times a second. As a 37 , house flies flap their wings about 200 times a second, and hummingbirds 50 times a second.Richard Bomphrey of the Royal Veterinary College, the studyader, b

23、s ecial abilities will be of benefit to engineers in the future. The findings could lead to better aircraft, or even improvement to tools like lenses or pumps.But the scientists hope their study can one day be 39 to new developments in more human- focused use.“ The more we know about mosquitoes, the

24、 better our chance of understanding their flight behavior, how they carry disease and 40 how to stop them from doing so,” Walker wrote.III. Reading Comprehension Section AArtists have long claimed alcohol and other drugs as inspiration for their creativity. But is there really a(n) 41 between intoxi

25、cation (醉酒) and inspiration? A recent study published in Consciousness and Cognition explored the effects of moderate drunkenness on people' s creativity. The authors suggest thatalcohol ' s w-kenllown effect in 42 executive function may be helpful for these types of creation problems: “ Som

26、etimes a reduced ability to 43 one ' s attention can have posivite implications for select cognitive tasks, ” t hweryite.The findings raise the question of whether drugs that 44 attention and focus, in particular, stimulants (興奮劑) , would have the opposite effect on creative thinking 45 , very l

27、ittle research has been done on the issue, and what results exist so far have been mixed. The outcomes may well vary according to individual 46 to the drugs. 47 , some research has found that while stimulants can48 test performance for those who are less intelligent, for the smartest folks, the drug

28、s can have the opposite effect.If less executive function is linked to more creativity, this may also explain why artists, writers and musicians appear to be more 49 to have an addiction. Perhaps creative people are more likely than others to be 50 to drugs in the first place, as a possible source o

29、f inspiration. And then, if reduced executive function is 51 in part for their initial talent, this, too, could make them more easily influenced by 52 once they start using. Having less executive control before you even take drugs means you ' ll have less ability to stop once yo sutart.Whatever

31、al Society' sR esearch Digest: “We tested what happens when people are slightly drunk-not when people drank to 55 . There could be no argument from these findings that drinking excessively would have the same effects. ”A glass of wine or two, however, may occasionally help.41.A. attractionB. res

52、nge in corporate competitiveness. Companies, both born in the digital era and traditional world are showing off their skills in data science. Therefore, it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type.Mr. Carlos Guestrin, machine learning professor from University of Washi

53、ngton argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years, making data scientists-people trained to analyze large bodies of information- key workers in this emerging “ cognitive tec”hn ology economy. There are already critical applications that depend on machine le

54、arning, a subfield of data science, led by recommendation programs, fraud detection systems, forecasting tools and applications for predicting customer behavior.Many companies that are born digital-particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle-

55、are all-in when it comes to data science. Pinterest, for instance, maintains more than 100 machine learning models that could be applied to different classes of problems, and it constantly fields requests from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem.The factors weighi

56、ng on many traditional companies will be the high cost of mounting a serious machine-learning operation. Netflix is estimated to spend $ 150m a year on a single application and the total bill is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account.Another problem for m

57、any non-technology companies is talent. Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle, only about 1,000 have deep learning skills, compared to 100,000 who can apply other machine learning techniques, says Mr. Goldbloom. He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expand

58、 their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field.The biggest barrier to adapting to the coming era of “ smart a”pp lic ations, however, is likely to be cultural. Some companies, such as General Electric, have been building their own Silicon Valley presence to attract and develop the digital skills they will need.Despite the obstacles, some may master this difficult transition. But companies that were built, from the beginning, with data science at t
