16、onto the right shoulder of I-94. The bus scraped(擦挂)a concrete barrier, and then turned back into traffic. “Stop the bus!”Jill yelled to the driver from her seat just behind him.

17、l screamed, and with the bus rushing in and out of traffic at about 60 mph in an uncontrollable way, she leaped into the drivers seat and grabbed the wheel. “My life flashed before my eyes,” Jill says now. “Everyone on the bus was bouncing around; they were lying in the aisle(通道).

23、pecies Project (ESP) is taking the lead. “We are species-independent,” Raskin said to The Guardian, adding that ESP is developing translation algorithms(算法) that can be applied to biological systems of all kinds, from worms to whales. Raskin acknowledges that the goal is similar to going to the moon

24、. Instead, the ESP roadmap involves solving a series of smaller problems to achieve the big picture. These tools will assist researchers in revealing the secrets of species under study using artificial intelligence. Bees, for instance, do a special “waggle dance” to signal to each other that they sh

25、ould land on a certain flower, which is a form of non-verbal communication. A noisy social environment can make it difficult to determine which animal is making the sound within a group. This phenomenon is known as the “cocktail party problem”. Though there are many challenges, some progress has bee

26、n made, such as an algorithm that can produce imitated animal sounds to talk directly with them. “Its making the Al speak the language, although we dont know what it means yet,” Raskin said, “These are the tools that allow us to understand entire communication systems.” As we can see, Artificial Int

27、elligence is once again being used by scientists to break barriers and open new doors that would otherwise be unopenable.

Interestingly, and in a somewhat connection to ESP, Professor Avi Loeb has proposed that Artificial Intelligence

29、 developed by humans could one day maybe identify Alien AI and communicate with it.28Which statement would Raskin probably agree with?AThe purpose of EPS is to land on the the moon.BResearchers are studying independent animals.CSolving challenging problems is just the priority.DAI will offer humans

30、help to understand animals.29Why does the author mention “waggle dance” and “cocktail party problem”?ATo show recent discoveries researchers made.BTo demonstrate difficulties researchers face.CTo reveal the secrets of species to the public.DTo arouse readers interest in certain animals.30What can we

31、 know about Al in Paragraph 5?AAI has been abandoned by scientists.BAl is gradually taking scientists place.CScientists have different opinions of AI.DProblems can only be solved by AI alone.31What does Professor Avi Loeb imply in the last paragraph?APeople need to lay great stress on the alien comm

38、eir boundaries. Thats one of the most undeveloped skills in the digital age. Todays parasocial relationships are surfing unknown territory, so it is expected that theywewill make mistakes.
