填空题There are three different body types: ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph. Learning about all three and knowing which body type you are will help you understand why certain aspects of diet and workout are 1 and 2 for you than they are for other people. The main differences between the three different body types are 3 speed and bone structure. Ectomorph is the naturally 4 body type. Born with a super 5 metabolism, the ectomorph can 6 pretty much whatever they want and never get fat. However, the same quick metabolism also makes it extremely 7 for an ectomorph to gain weight and muscle. Endomorph is the naturally 8 body type. It"s basically the complete 9 of the ectomorph. An endomorph could eat 10 as much as other people and still gain 11 . Born with the slowest metabolism, the endomorph gains weight the quickest and easiest. Unlike the ectomorph and the endomorph that both have a 12 and 13 side, the mesomorph has the best of both worlds. They gain muscle almost as well as an 14 , yet can lose fat almost as well as an ectomorph. You can"t change your 15 . It"s just not possible. However, you can still be your own 16 . You just need to tailor your 17 and workout accordingly. The endomorph can lose weight. The ectomorph can gain weight and muscle. The 18 can do all of the above. Whether you are an ectomorph, mesomorph or endomorph, it is you, through hard work and dedication, proper diet and 19 , that decide what your body wii1 become. The three different body types are just a natural 20 point.

填空题When you enter into a conversation, you expect the other person to communicate exactly as you do, and the other person expects you to communicate just as he or she does. If these expectations are not met, communication 1 begins. On the other hand, in some situations, a person may expect the other person not to communicate in a 2 style. When two people start to develop an 3 relationship, complementary communication 4 often emerge. Once you begin to know and like another individual, you accept or become 5 of his or her communication style and the inherent 6 and weakness. It would not be 7 for you to manage communication conflicts if you remember the following 8 -step process: First, you should understand your own 9 style of communication. Second, you should be able to 10 the other person"s dominant style of communication. Third, you need to use different 11 of communication to deal with different expectations, so as to accomplish your 12 . Fourth, you will develop new expectations for your 13 communication activity. A person"s communication style is 14 and 15 influenced. Your personality also interacts with your style of communication. Remember descriptions of 16 such as charming, rude, dynamic, boring, pleasant, and dishonest are not communication style characteristics. In the process of analyzing and 17 communication events, the first step is to identify the other person"s style of communication. The next step is to 18 your style to meet the other person"s 19 . By controlling your style of communication, you can learn to control the 20 of the communication activity.

填空题 My questions for discussion today are. What are the requirements to become a good leader? Are {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}inherent? The answers to these questions in a layman language can be given like this: a leader is one who {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}, who can control the behavior of others and who can manage others to {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}. Leadership is not limited to position, experience, training, title or authority. After studying the biography of hundreds of {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}it can be concluded that up to some extent leadership qualities {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}, but good leaders are created or made and they are not born because these inherent qualities need to {{U}} {{U}} 6 {{/U}} {{/U}}. But this also does not mean that if a person does not possess those inherent qualities he {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}. The fact is that a person can become a leader if he {{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}to become a successful leader and on his way he constantly develops himself {{U}} {{U}} 9 {{/U}} {{/U}}, training and then experience. Now how does a person become a {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}? It is a simple five-step process. This process can make you a successful leader. The steps are as follows: {{U}} {{U}} 11 {{/U}} {{/U}}: A leader cannot exist without a vision. He should have a clear view of {{U}} {{U}} 12 {{/U}} {{/U}}that he wants to achieve in his life.

"Every year, {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}performers compete for 200 available roles on Broadway." Some years later, when I graduated from film school, I came to {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}my father's concern. It was nearly unheard of for a Chinese newcomer to make it in the American film industry. I struggled {{U}} {{U}} 6 {{/U}} {{/U}}six years of {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}, hopeless uncertainty. Much of the time, I was helping film {{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}with their equipment or working as editor's assistant. My most painful experience involved touting a {{U}} {{U}} 9 {{/U}} {{/U}}at more than 30 production companies and meeting with {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}rejection each time. That year, I {{U}} {{U}} 11 {{/U}} {{/U}}30. Yet, I couldn't even support myself. What could I do? Give up my dream? My wife gave me {{U}} {{U}} 12 {{/U}} {{/U}}support. She worked at a small {{U}} {{U}} 13 {{/U}} {{/U}}research lab after graduation and her income was terribly {{U}} {{U}} 14 {{/U}} {{/U}}. To {{U}} {{U}} 15 {{/U}} {{/U}}my own feelings of {{U}} {{U}} 16 {{/U}} {{/U}}, I took on cooking, cleaning, taking care of our son—in addition to reading, {{U}} {{U}} 17 {{/U}} {{/U}}films and writing scripts, which was rather {{U}} {{U}} 18 {{/U}} {{/U}}for a man. Afterward, I enrolled in a computer course at a nearby community {{U}} {{U}} 19 {{/U}} {{/U}}. For the days that followed, I descended into malaise. So my wife said, "Ang, don't forget your dream." And today, I've finally won that golden statue. I think my own perseverance and my wife's immeasurable {{U}} {{U}} 20 {{/U}} {{/U}}have finally met their reward.

单选题. Clever Kitty 聪明的猫咪 by Duncan Graham-Rowe The most ambitious artificial brain yet designed is taking shape in a laboratory in Colorado. The brain's developers aim to link it to a robot kitten called Robokoneko, which they hope will become one of the first superstars of artificial life. "Observers won't need a PhD to appreciate that there is a brain behind it," says Hugo de Garis of Advanced Telecommunications Research in Kyoto, Japan, the brain's principal architect. Genobyte, a company in Boulder, Colorado, is building De Garis's Cellular Automata Machine (CAM) brain under contract. It will contain nearly 40 million artificial neurons, compared with the few hundred neurons that most other specialists in artificial intelligence are working with. The CAM brain differs not only in its immense scale, but also in the fact that its neurons are real electronic devices rather than software simulations. The CAM brain uses a special type of computer chip called a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Unlike conventional chips, the circuits in FPGAs can be reconfigured by altering the connections between their transistors. When De Gaffs conceived his project six years ago it was greeted with skepticism. "Many of my colleagues thought I was nuts," he says. But it has now become a practical proposition with the development of a new and exceptionally robust FPGA made by Xilinx, a company in San Jose, California. The CAM brain will run on 72 linked FPGAs. At any one time these devices will act as a "module" containing 1,152 interconnected neurons. But the devices will be repeatedly reconfigured to represent 32,768 different modules. The brain remembers how the modules connect to each other, and uses the outputs of the modules it has already processed as inputs for others. A cycle through these modules, representing 37.7 million neurons, will be repeated 300 times every second. To model the brain, De Gaffs uses some 450 million autonomous "cells" representing components such as the neurons themselves and the axons and dendrites that connect them. Each cell consists of several transistors within an FPGA. The CAM brain is scheduled for completion in March. Neural networks must be fine-tuned to perform particular tasks. But no human programmer could write the software needed to refine a network as complex as the CAM brain. Instead, this will be generated using an approach that simulates biological evolution. Through random mutations and breeding of the "genetic material" that describes the structure and connections of the network, the program will be evolved over many generations to get the optimum design. Robokoneko will not be built until this work has been completed on a computer simulation of the robot cat. Some experts, however, doubt whether building ever bigger neural networks will bring any fundamental insights into the mysteries of cognition, such as how the brain builds a representation of the world. "The point is that these puzzles are not puzzles because our neural models are not large enough," argues Igor Aleksander, a neural systems engineer at Imperial College London. The CAM brain's developers admit that they can't predict exactly how it will perform when it is linked to Robokoneko. But they hope it will for the first time allow a robot to interact with stimuli in its environment to develop the sort of intelligence seen in animals. "What is so special about this neural network is a much higher degree of biological relevance," says Michael Korkin of Genobyte.16. By saying "Observers won't need a PhD to appreciate that there is a brain behind it", Hugo de Garis probably means ______.
