二、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

21、In a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to memorize enough situations in the test. This basic process of making associations — considered a lower-level thinking technique — is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latest AI advances.

The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning: one declarative learning, is based on exercising reason according to a set of rules or strategies — a so-called higher level of learning owned mostly by people. The other, associative learning, centers on recognizing and making connections between objects or patterns, such as “sky-blue” and “water-wet. ”

Wasserman’s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or associative learning. Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus (刺激)and had to decide, by pecking   (啄) a button on the right or on the left, to which category that stimulus belonged. What made the test so demanding was that no rules or logic would help finish the task. They have to memorize the individual stimuli or regions from where the stimuli occur. Over hundreds of tests, the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50% to an average of 68% right.

“The pigeons are like AI masters” Wasserman says. “Both of them employ associative learning, and yet that base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately score successfully.” If people were to take the same test, they’d score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules or strategies. Those rules would get in the way of learning. The pigeon doesn’t have that high-level thinking process. But it doesn’t get in the way of their learning. In fact, in some ways it facilitates it.

“People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm (算法) much like the pigeon,” Wasserman says, “yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals, it is discounted as inflexible and uncomplicated. ”

【1】Which of the following is a typical example of associative learning ?

A.Tom refuses to put hands on hot stoves after burns.

B.Dolphins detect obstacles using sound waves.

C.Chimpanzees use physical gesture strategies.

D.Emily figures out math problems with logic.

【2】How did the pigeons improve their performance in the test?

A.By pecking the stimuli.

B.By finding rule or logic.

C.By competing with each other.

D.By making numerous attempts.

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.AI and man use the same learning pattern.

B.Associative learning is underestimated.

C.People think highly of declarative learning.

D.Pigeons finish tasks with AI algorithms.

【4】Which can be a suitable title of the text?

A.Pigeon’s Peck Can Mirror High Tech

B.AI Contributes to a New Learning Pattern

C.AI Can Enrich Human Learning Experience

D.Pigeon’s Learning Largely Extends High Tech

22、Thurgood Marshall was born in Baltimore on July 2nd, 1908. In that city, and in many other parts of the USA. at that time, black people were separated from white people by law. When he was in primary school, one of his teachers punished him by sending him to read and remember the words of the Constitution (宪法). It's a long document but he managed to remember most of it.

The case involved the city of Topeka, where it was legal to have “separate but equal” schools for black students and white students. Marshall argued it was a violation (违背 ) of the Constitution to separate people because of their race. He added that the word “equal” meant getting the same thing, at the same time and in the same place. The Supreme Court agreed. The case helped destroy the terrible wall of legal racial separation throughout the United States.
