38、 to Increase Sales Online:Labeling and MarketingDIn a new study,Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests thathigh-level thinking would not aid in solving.Instead,the pigeons,by trial and error,eventually were able tomemorize enough situations in the test.This basi
39、c process of making associations considered a lower-levelthinking technique is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latestAI advances.The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning:one declarative learning,is based onexercising reason according to a set of rules or strategies
40、 a so-called higher level of learning owned mostlyby people.The other,associative learning,centers on recognizing and making connections between objects orpatterns,such as“sky-blue”and“water-wet.”Wasserman s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or associativ
41、elearning.Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus(刺激)and had to decide,by pecking(啄)a button on theright or on the left,to which category that stimulus belonged.What made the test so demanding was that norules or logic would help finish the task.They have to memorize the individual stimuli or regions
42、from wherethe stimuli occur.Over hundreds of tests,the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50%to anaverage of 68%right.“The pigeons are likeAI masters”Wasserman says.“Both of them employ associative learning,and yetthat base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately sc
43、ore successfully.”If people were to takethe same test,theyd score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules orstrategies.Those rules would get in the way of learning.The pigeon doesnt have that high-level thinkingprocess.But it doesnt get in the way of their learning.In
44、 fact,in some ways it facilitates it.“People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm(算法)much like thepigeon,”Wasserman says,“yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals,it isdiscounted as inflexible and uncomplicated.”32.Which of the following is a
45、 typical example of associative learning?ATom refuses to put hands on hot stoves after burns.BDolphins detect obstacles using sound waves.CChimpanzees use physical gesture strategies.DEmily figures out math problems with logic.33.How did the pigeons improve their performance in the test?ABy pecking
46、the stimuli.BBy finding rule or logic.CBy competing with each other.DBy making numerous attempts.34.What can we infer from the last paragraph?AAI and man use the same learning pattern.BAssociative learning is underestimated.CPeople think highly of declarative learning.DPigeons finish tasks withAI al
