18、hey exchanged glances with each other and said,“Well try to put him in to bat.”Mark struggled over to the teams bench and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart.The boys saw the fathers joy at his son being accepted.In the bottom of the final inning,Mark was scheduled to be at ba

19、t.Everyone knew that a hit was almostimpossible.The first pitch(投)came and Mark missed.The pitcher again took a few steps forward to throwthe ball softly towards Mark.As the pitch came in,Mark swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball rightback to the pitcher.The pitcher could have easily thrown

28、 of humans,identify safe trajectories（轨迹）for a robot andcontrol its movements accordingly.Predicting human behavior and movements,however,can be incredibly challenging.Determining thefuture movements of a robot,on the other hand,could be far easier.If human users could anticipate themovements of rob

29、ots and the effects these will have on the surrounding environment,they should then be ableto easily adapt their actions in order to avoid accidents.With this in mind,researchers at Kyushu University in Japan recently created a near-future perceptionsystem named Previewed Reality that allows human u

30、sers to forecast future changes in their environment,which could then inform their decisions and guide their actions.This system compiles a data-set containinginformation about the position of objects,humans and robots within the same environment,to then producesimulations（模拟）of events that could ta

31、ke place in the near future.These simulations are presented tohuman users via Virtual Reality(VR)orAugmented Reality(AR)headsets.To collect information about the position of different objects,robots,and humans in a sharedenvironment,the researchers used a number of strategically placed sensors,inclu

32、ding optical trackers thatmonitored the movements of objects or robots,and a RGB-D camera which mainly tracked human actions.The data gathered by the sensors was then fed to a motion planner and a dynamics simulator.Combining thesetwo system components allowed the researchers to forecast changes in

33、a given environment and synthesize（合成）imagesof events that are likely to occur in the near future,from the viewpoint of a specific human.Humanusers could then view these synthesized images simply through a VR headset or anAR display.“This system provides human-friendly communication between a human

34、and a robotic system.”theresearchers explained.In their next studies,they plan to expand and simplify the perception system,forinstance by creating a lighter and more affordable version that can be accessed on smart phones or otherportable devices.28.Why did the researchers develop the system?A.To p

35、redict future changes in human behavior.B.To record developments in the field of robotics.C.To enhance safety of human-robot interactions.D.To make good use of virtual reality technology.29.What is special about Previewed Reality?5A.It simulates near-future events via VR headsets.B.It enables human

36、users to perceive future events.C.It guides robots to track humansmovements easily.D.It helps determine the location information of objects.30.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Functions of various sensors.B.New ways to synthesize images.C.The structure of Previewed Reality.D.The working process of

37、 Previewed Reality.31.What might the researchers do in the future?A.Promote the new version through advertising.B.Test this perception system with smart phones.C.Apply some new techniques to robotic systems.D.Make the system accessible on portable devices.DThere are some things money cant buy.Educat

38、ion,however,does not appear to be among thematleast as measured by performance on international exams.A new study by Harvard University offers strongevidence that the wealth of a country affects exam results just as much as the wealth of a pupils householddoes.On average,pupils in wealthy countries

39、obtain vastly higher test scores than those in developing ones.Evaluating test scores around the world is harder than it sounds.Although pupils in the rich world mostlytake one of a few big international exams,many developing countries rely on regional tests,makingapples-to-apples comparisons imposs

40、ible.Researchers organized an exam in 2016 for 2,314 children in India,which included both questions fromthe leading tests and ones taken from smaller exams.Using answers from the same pupils on the same day toquestions from different tests,they built a statistical model they called a“Rosetta Stone”

41、.It can translatescores from a range of examssuch as one used only in west Africainto an equal mark on other commoninternational tests.They then used these equations（等式）to estimate how pupils in 80 different countries would fare on thebenchmark（基准）Trends in International Mathematics and Science Stud

42、y(TIMSS).Their data show that thewealth of a students country and family have similar impacts on test scoresmeaning that big gaps in GDPper person matter more than small ones in household income do.For example,pupils from families that arevery poor by rich-world standardsthose earning$5,000 a yearar

43、e expected to score around 500 out of1,000 on the TIMSS in America,and 560 in Japan.In contrast,those whose parents make$10,000 a year in anupper-middle income country can only get the equivalent（等价物）of a 475.The influence of parental earnings is not constant.Rich people tend to educate their childr

44、en privately inplaces where wealth is concentrated,such as Brazil.However,in countries with relatively flat incomedistributions,like Croatia,pupils from different social classes are more likely to attend the same schools.Thiscould reduce the impact of family wealth on test scores.32.Why is it hard t

45、o evaluate the exam scores on a global level?A.Because the types of exams vary with countries.B.Because many rich countries refuse regional tests.C.Because the wealth of a country affects exam results.D.Because no international exam is available to poor areas.33.Why did the researchers establish a“R

46、osetta Stone”?A.To integrate different exams into a common one.B.To evaluate different exams with distinct approaches.C.To fix the standard of the exams in different countries.6D.To turn scores of different exams into an equivalent mark.34.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.Poor studen

47、ts tend to be academically superior to rich ones.B.Students from rich families will definitely get higher grades.C.The influence of family income on students is related to circumstances.D.People with high social status are more likely to educate their children privately.35.What is the text mainly ab
