问答题What does "civilization" mean? It means a society based upon the opinion of civilians. It means that violence, the rule of warriors and despotic chiefs, the conditions of camps and warfare, of riot and tyranny, give place to parliaments where laws are made, and independent courts of justice in which over long periods those laws are maintained. That is Civilization—and in its soil grow continually freedom, comfort and culture. When Civilization reigns in any country, a wider and less harassed life is afforded to the masses of the people, the traditions of the past are cherished, and the inheritance bequeathed to us by former wise or valiant men becomes a rich estate to be enjoyed and used by all.

问答题Instructions: Translate the underlined sentences of the following passage into Chinese. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. People have attempted to simulate human voices in machines for quite some time. In the late 1700s, Hungarian scientist Wolfgang yon Kempelen used whistles, resonance chambers, and other objects to create voice sounds for his "Speaking Machine." With the rise of computers, scientists were able to create artificial voices by storing and digitally processing real voice sounds. By the 1970s, these computer-generated voices were widely used. Although these early voices were understandable, they had a distinct mechanical or "robotic" sound to them. Coming up with more natural-sounding voices has been a challenge due to the complex nature of language. 1 To produce a natural-sounding voice, scientists need to simulate not only the individual sounds of a language, but also the volume, pitch, rhythm, and tones that help to express meaning. Natural-sounding computer voices are now used to provide information to people in a variety of applications, from automated phone lines to language learning programs. Many systems are also able to listen to users" questions and statements and respond to them. One good example of this comes from the BMW car company. BMW has programmed cars to both listen and speak to the driver. 2 The car can give directions, provide warnings and information about traffic and safety conditions, and even control certain functions, such as raising or lowering the windows or playing music. When BMW first released cars with a computer-generated voice, many drivers had a negative reaction to it because drivers perceived the voice as female. German drivers were uncomfortable with a "female" voice giving directions. As a result, BMW recalled the cars and gave them "male" voices. The reaction to the female voice was emotional. It had no reasoning behind it. Common sense says that the "gender" of the voice in the car shouldn"t matter because drivers know that they are listening to a computer, not a person. 3 But even without a visual representation of the voice, such as a male or female face, people reacted with the same stereotypes they would apply to a person. Studies have also shown that people react similarly to other aspects of computer voices, such as the "personality" of the voice or its level of "politeness." Researchers now know that voice interfaces are actually social interfaces; that is, people will react to a computer using the same rules and expectations that they would apply to people. 4 As a result, designers of these systems consider not only the sounds of the voices they use, but also their psychological effect on users.

问答题One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. Credit cards give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many baking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the horizon—it"s already here. While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. (74) Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. The information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to recorder or return which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufactures for similar reasons. (75) Computer-analyzed marking reports can help decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself. Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theatres to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers. Answer the following questions briery according to the passage.

问答题Divided We Stand Marriage is big lately; actually it's unmarriage that seems to be capturing our attention. From the award-winning American Beauty to the Bruce Willis-Mishelle Pfeiffer movie, The Story of Us, the institution of marriage is being turned inside out, and it's not a pretty sight. To judge by these films, modern marriage involves a lot of broken crockery and busted expectations. (1) While many current Hollywood depictions of marriage may be overly pessimistic, statistics in America are alarming: each year half as many Americans get divorced as marry. Marriage counselors say couples often choose to separate as a last-ditch effort to change their relationship, and possibly themselves. But a separation can give couples time to calm down, renegotiate the rules of the relationship and gain some needed distance. For a separation to work, it needs to be well defined. "Structured Separations" tend to be the most productive. Couples facing separation do best if they establish some basic ground rules first. (2) They should mutually agree on the length of the separation-three to six months is average and both must continue to work on their own problems during that time, either with or without a counselor. Couples should agree not to see lawyers during their separation. Lawyers have a way of moving marriage toward divorce. (3) During their period of trial separation couples should not pursue each other at all, either to fight or to reconcile, but should agree in advance on what kind of contact they will have. Separated couples can agree to speak on the phone for a prearranged period, for in stance, or meet once a week. (4) Some therapists advise their clients to agree not to talk to each other about their relationship during these encounters and to use the time apart to reflect on their own lives and see what they can change about themselves. If there are children involved, both parties need to agree on all the ground rules having to do with kids. Parents should also be aware that repeated separations and reconciliations are difficult and confusing for children. A separation, while painful, can help keep the anger down and give a couple time to think. (5) If both are unsure about the future of the marriage, it can provide a timeout, during which they can see what life would be like without the other. Sometimes it leads to divorce. But if couples are able to clarify things, it will improve their marriage-or, make their divorce better.
