Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look-and hence feel-happier encouraging you to like what you see.That's the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other words, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around- is a well-established idea.The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered vvith-software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown.Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited（招募）21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was completed, the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.“The system could be used to manipulate consumers9 impressions of products,say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.wIfs certainly an interesting area,M says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging/9 he says.Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. uYou could argue that if it makes people happy, what harm is it doing?” says Creed. wBut I can imagine that many people may feet manipulated uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”1、VVhafs the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?A. To see whether one's facial expressions can be altered.B. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.C. lb see whether laughter comes before happiness.D. To see whether one's feeling can be unconsciously affected.2、 What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?A. It recorded the volunteers' performance in the task.B. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.C. It gave the volunteers a false image.D. It beautified the volunteers appearance in the mirror.3、What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technologyA. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.B. It only works in clothing stores.C. It only makes subtle changes to people's expressions.D. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.4、What does Creeds comment on the moral issues with this technology imply?A. People should make their decisions independently.B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.C. Nothing is more important than happiness.D. People should neglect the harm of the technology.22. （8 分） An autonomous vehicle designed for making local commerce deliveries was uncovered by Nuro. The vehicle is about the height of an SW but far narrower than a typical car. The electric car features four outside compartments（暗格）two on each side -to hold separate deliveries. Each compartment can be tailored to a specific use, such as cooking a pizza or refrigerating a package.“We can use self-driving technology to deliver anything, anytime, anywhere for basically all local goods and services,Nuro co-founder Dave Ferguson said. Consumers used to be okay with bvo-week paid shipping. It became two-week free delivery, followed by one week, two days, and the same day. Now same-day delivery isn't fast enough for some customers.”Nuro isn't alone in building robots for local commerce deliveries. Earlier this month, Toyota, a Japanese car company, uncovered a concept vehicle that could be used for package delivery. A handful of startupsincluding Starship Technologies, Marble and Dispatchare testing small robots for deliveries on sidewalks.Nuro's vehicle will likely face legal hurdles. Fully autonomous vehicles without a test diver aren't legal in California today, and many companies have shifted testing o states where regulators are more welcoming of autonomous vehicles, such as Arizona.Nuro expects to face fewer challenges because it doesn't carry passengers. Nuro's narrow size may also be helpful when navigating streets and avoiding pedestrians. The vehicle isn't equipped with any special features to communicate with pedestrians or other road users. Some companies have tested and patented solutions such as digital screens that signal the car's next move. Ferguson said his team conducted studies and found that such techniques could confuse people. Nuro believes it's better to make sure the car performs predictably, so that human drivers know what to expect from it.“We feel by creating this new technology that's going to enable this last mile delivery, we9re going to be creating new markets and doing things that previously weren't possible/9 Ferguson said. "This is not swapping out jobs with robots. It's creating new markets. There will definitely be new employment opportunities."1、What is the main characteristic of the Nuro'§ self-driving vehicle?A. It can cook delicious meals for customers.B. It is a pioneer in the field of self-driving vehicles.C. It is fur narrower and higher than other autonomous ones.D. Its deliveries can be transported in the special compartment.2、Which can best replace the underlined word “hurdles” in Paragraph 4?A. breakthrough. B. dilemma.C. restriction. D. protection.3、Why is the Nuro's vehicle not equipped with communicating features?A. Its digital screens often break down.B. People may be puzzled at the features.C. The features have not been developed.D. Its performance is usually hard to predict.4、What can we infer about Ferguson's opinion on this new technology?A. Beneficial. B. Challenging.C. Controversial. D. Ambiguous.23. （8 分）The housing market in Canada has been in a dangerous situation. A recent news item said that the owner of two high-rise buildings of rental apartments had told his tenants （房客）that their rent would double in three months.Toronto doesn't have rent controls to stop this sort of thing from happening. However, the politicians warn almost immediately that landlords （房东）should be careful because it could cause new laws to pass that they may not like.Tenants in the two buildings, meanwhile, are angry and some will have to move out because they simply can't afford to stay.The next day another news story noted that the purchase price of a house in Toronto has jumped 33 percent this year, which might destroy the dream of owning a house for most young people. Both of these stories came out of Toronto but similar things are happening in Canada's other major cities such as Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal and Calgary.The cost of both home rental and home purchase is related to the supply and demand pressures of the market place and this is probably as it should be. The catch is that the rapid increase in both costs is far outstripping （超过）the increase in salaries, particularly in those jobs that beginners and probably even the majority of people can get.We can't leave these people out on the streets. I think the expanding gulf between the haves and the have-nots that we are seeing in Canada is dangerous because when some people seem to have everything and others are next to nothing it can lead to desperation, depression and sometimes to violence. I doubt whether this phenomenon is limited to my country but ifs very concerning here. I feel sorry for the young people just entering the housing market.1、Why do the politicians warn the landlords not to double their rents in the near future?A. They are kind-hearted men and feel sorry for the poor.B. They'll have to raise the salaries for workers if rents are too high.C. It is cold in Canada, so it is dangerous to leave people on the street.D. The government will take measures to protect the interest of tenants.2、 That the writer thinks the housing market in Canada in a dangerous situation is because.A. Canada doesn't have rent controls to stop rents from risingB. most young people take no interest in buying their own houseC. the government are unable to provide the poor with free housesD. the problems caused by high rents may lead to serious social conflicts3、According to the context, which of following word has the closest meaning to the underlined word "catch” in paragraph 4?A. ProMem. B. Dhemma.C. Depression. D. Desperation.4、What is the best title for the text?A. Beyond Most BuyersB. Tenants Will Move OutC. Toronto Is No Longer a Good PlaceD. To Help the Young or Not, This Is a Question24. （8 分） In February, FEDEX launched a robot capable of replacing a pizza delivery driver by bringing food right to your door, which indicates more companies may soon automate （使自动化）not only processes, but full business lines.These types of moves could be disastrous to work. Between 1987 and 2017, manufacturing output grew 80 percent, but the number of workers dropped dramatically. This hit cities hard, leading to shrinking populations and the wide difference between urban places we see now. Numerous studies show that automation isn't equally affecting the workforce across all sectors. While it has negatively impacted a portion of the economy, it has helped to lift up other sectors, such as computer science and health care.The real question is how you counteract inequality.To start with, we should train people with the skills they need. To minimize job losses and embrace positive changes, we need to focus on the great value humans bring to the table. Jobs requiring soft skills like time management, active listening, cooperation, and judgment and decision-making, and jobs that are in high-touch industries are much less likely to be automated.We must make joint efforts to strengthen and fix the holes in the safety net. While the 2020 presidential candidates are starting a conversation about how to accomplish this, cities are already leading by experimenting with basic income, passing higher minimum wage laws, carrying out paid family leave and driving policy solutions that support workers and families.In the end robots won't take all the jobs, but they might take yours. What vve do about it, though, is up to us. 1、What will possibly happen if companies use robots in full business lines?A. There will be a sharp drop in manufacturing output.B. There will be a shrink in population across China.C. The negative impacts will outweigh the positive ones.D. The workforce in various fields m
