The young mans hopes for success were broken again and again, however. Hollywood just did not seem interesting. When he first came to California, Larry had decided never to give up and return home without success. Therefore, he kept on trying. Someday, he told himself, his big opportunity would come.Larry found a job parking cars for one of Hollywoods big restaurants. His pay was basic, but since the guests were kind enough to give him more money, he managed to make a living. One day he recognized an important film director driving into the parking lot（停车场）and getting out of his car. Larry had recently heard that the man was ready to make a new picture.Larry got into the car and prepared to drive it on into the lot and park it. Then he stopped, jumped out, and ran over to the director. “Excuse me, sir, but I think it is only fair to tell you that it is now or never if you want me in your next picture. A lot of big companies are after me.”Instead of pushing away the boy，the director laughed，then wrote something on a card and handed it to the young man.“Come and see me tomorrow.”Larry got a small part in the directors next film. He was on his way!61.Which of the following was Larry really interested in?A. Working as a waiter.B. Becoming a film star.C. Parking cars for film stars.D. Owning a big company.62.Why did Larry find a job parking cars?A. Because he liked the job.B. Because the parking lot was near Hollywood.C. To make a living and wait for the opportunity.D. To see a lot of film stars and work for them.63. After reading the story, what can we know about the film director ?A. He wanted to laugh at Larry.B. He recognized Larry at first sight.C. He was kind and gave Larry a try.D. He thought Larry would become a star.64.“He was on his way”refers to the fact that _.A. he gave up and returned homeB. he began to work towards successC. he took a journey to HollywoodD. he had difficulty in playing the small partBTo what degree can a computer achieve intelligence？The answer to this question may lie in a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kids huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city area across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Childs age returns. “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives gets, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”Smarter Child uses the vast information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather, he visits www. intellicast. com.Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A. I. (Artificial Intelligence), he must overcome two problems.The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are labeled（分类） in different ways. Thats why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself.The other problem is that while Smarter Child can process information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks common sensea basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious to any young child.65. From the text we can know that is a website _.A. which is specially designed to help Smarter ChildB. where we people can find Smarter ChildC. where weather forecasts are madeD. which is about artificial intelligence66. It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to _.A. tell us how to spell a difficult wordB. tell us how the American government is runC. provide us with a famous poem by ShakespeareD. learn the ability to tell right behaviors from wrong ones67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Smart Child has his own memory bank big enough for all kinds of information.B. A.I.( Artificial Intelligence) is probably the name of a film about a boy-computer.C. Smart Child can recognize different files and find information needed on his own.D. We have a similar product now which has the knowledge of Einstein, Nixon and Spears.68. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Smarter ChildB. A New Web ChildC. The Future of InternetD. Intelligence DevelopmentC Reading can provide lots of fun for children and teens during summer vacation. Children who read during the summer are better prepared for school when they return to classes in the fall. Public libraries throughout Wisconsin w
