Part VIWRITING参考范文With intelligent machines to do the thinking, will our brains get lazy? Nowadays, people are enjoying one of the greatest technological boom times in human history. Many aspects of peoples daily life have undergone considerable changes because of the recent development in artificial intelligence. In spite ofmany benefits brought by intelligent machines, it has been concerned that our brains will get lazy with intelligent machines to do the thinking. In my opinion, artificial intelligence will help our brains get more creative instead. Artificial intelligence has already made its way into our work field and completelyrenovated peoples lifestyle. Admittedly, a lot of work has been done by intelligent machines. It seems that the function of people has been weakened and peoples brain has been replaced. As a matter of fact, thanks to artificial intelligence, people can expand their creative energy and add new varieties. Simply speaking, when people are free from tedious, repetitive, sometimes even dangerous and risky work, the work efficiency has undoubtedly been improved. As a result, people can spare more time to do what they want and pursue what they dream of, which is the premise of creativity. Moreover, creativitystems primarily fromknowledge and thinking. Once people have opportunities to do more thinking and learn more knowledge, their intelligence would be enhanced rather than weakened. Actually, intelligent machines are theexhibition of peoples high degree of creative power. No matter how technologies develop,it should be noted thattechnologies should be people-oriented, and then we may embrace a more enlightening and intelligent society. 2023专四听力原文2023年英语专业四级听力真题听写原文Learning Sympathy学会同情A big part of being human is feeling sympathy, but how early on in our lives do we learn this? Scientists find that babies respond to other people by crying when other babies cry. However, babies cant distinguish between themselves and others until theyre eighteen to twenty months old. Toddlers start to show concern for others around this time. Kids also begin to do things like comforting other people. And by the time theyre three, most children will try to protect a victim in a fight.恻隐之心，人皆有之。但是我们是在哪个成长阶段开始，有了恻隐之心的呢? 科学家发现，婴儿在听到其他婴儿哭泣的时候，也会对人哭泣。但是，婴儿到18个月至20个月大的时候，才干区分自己和别人。蹒跚学步的小孩大约从这个时候开始表现出对别人的关心。同时孩子们也开始会做安慰别人之类的事。到三岁的时候，大多数孩子会想要保护争斗中弱势的一方。2023年英语专业四级听力真题 演讲原文Online Education在线教育Good morning, everybody.大家早上好。In todays lecture, we will talk about online education.今天的讲座，我们要谈一谈在线教育。You know, in some parts of the world, it is not that easy for people to receive education.大家都知道，在有些地方，受教育仍然不是件容易的事。And even in the United States where education is available, it might not be within reach.即使在美国这样的教育大国，受教育也许也有困难。Thus, online courses provided by those world-famous universities can bring the best quality education to as many people as we could around the world, and for free.因此，世界知名大学提供的在线课程,就可认为世界上许许多多的人带来优质教育，并且是免费的。First, lets talk a little bit about some of the components that go into online education.一方面，我们谈一下在线教育的几个特点。The first component is that when you move away from the constraints of a physical classroom and design content for an online format, you can break away from, for example, the one-hour lecture format.第一个特点就是在线教育打破了实体课堂的限制。设计在线课程内容的时候，教师可以抛开很多限制，比如一小时的课程时长。You can break up the material, for example, into short, modular units of 8 to 12 minutes, and each of the short units introduces a coherent concept.举个例子，你可以将授课材料提成8到12分钟的小单元，每个单元介绍一个完整的概念。Students can deal with this material in different ways, depending on their backgrounds, their skills or their interests.学生可以根据自身背景、技能和爱好，以不同的方式学习材料。So, for example, some students might benefit from a little bit of preparatory material that other students might already have.比如，有些学生也许会从准备材料中学到东西，而这些材料其他同学早就有了。Other students might be interested in a particular topic that they want to pursue individually.其他同学也许会对他们自己喜欢探究的具体话题感爱好。So this format allows students to break away from the one-size-fits-all model of education, and allows students to follow a much more personalized curriculum.所以，这种形式将学生从“一刀切”式的教育中解放出来，学生们得以学习个性化的课程。Second and perhaps one of the biggest components of our online education is that when we need to have students who practice with the material in order to really understand it.第二个，也是在线教育最大的一个特点，就是我们需要让学生有材料练习，这样才干保证他们真正理解了所学内容。Theres been a range of studies that demonstrate the importance of this.许多研究显示了这一点的重要性。A study in Science last year, for example, demonstrates that even simple retrieval practice, where students are just supposed to repeat what theyve already learned, gives considerably improved results on various achievement tests.比如，去年科学杂志的一项研究显示，就连只规定学生复述所学内容的简朴检索训练，都提高了许多成绩测验中学生的成绩。So, we need to build in much more meaningful practice questions.所以，我们需要编制更故意义的练习题目。Now, fortunately, technology has helped us to provide the students with feedback on those questions.幸运的是，现在技术进步了，我们可以就问题向学生反馈。We can now grade a range of interesting types of homework online.现在还可以给许多有趣的在线家庭作业打分。The third component is what is called collaborative learning.第三点是合作学习。Students could collaborate in different online courses in a variety of ways.学生可以以各种方式在不同的在线课程中合作。First of all, there was a question and answer forum, where students could pose questions, and other students could answer those questions.一方面，在线课程会有一个问答论坛，学生可以在论坛上提问题，其他学生回答。And what is really amazing is that, because there were so many students, it means that even if a student posed a question at 3 oclock in the morning, somewhere around the world there would be somebody who was awake and working on the same problem.最奇妙的是，由于学生很多，即使有人凌晨三点提出问题，世界上另一个角落也会有还没睡的学生，一起解决这个问题。And he might answer that question.也许他就能回答那个问题。And so, in many of the online courses, the median response time for a question on the question and answer forum was 22 minutes.因此，许多在线课程中，问答论坛上问题的响应时间多数在22分钟。So in a word, if we wanted to offer top quality education to everyone around the world for free, what would that affect us?总而言之，假如为全人类免费提供高质量教育，将有哪些影响?Three things.我认为有以下三点。First, it would establish education as a fundamental human right, where anyone around the world with the ability and the motivation could get the skills they need.一方面，在线教育将教育作为基本人权，全世界可以并且想要学技能的人都能学到所需技能。Second, it would enable lifelong learning.第二，在线教育使得终身学习成为也许。Its a shame that for so many of us, learning stops when we finish high school or when we finish college.我们当中很多人高中毕业或者大学毕业之后就不再学习了，真是令人汗颜。By making this amazing content available, we would be able to learn something new every time we wanted, whether its just to expand our minds or its to change our lives.有了在线教育这个奇妙的东西，我们想学新东西就可以学到，可以开阔视野，也可以改变人生。And finally, this would make a wave of innovation possible, because amazing talent can be found everywhere.最后，在线教育也鼓励了新一轮创新浪潮，由于杰出人才将随处可见。To sum up today, we have talked about some features of online education and its benefits.今天的演讲，我们重要讨论了在线教育的许多特点和好处。We are sure that online education will have a promising future.在线教育一定前程光明。In the next lecture, were going to learn how online education has changed people around the world.下次讲座我们会讲到在线教育是如何改变世人生活的。2023年英语专业四级听力真题 对话1原文Conversation One对话1Questions 1 to 5 are based on Conversation One.请根据对话1回答第1题至第5题。W: Good afternoon, this is B.E.S. customer service line.

But instead of competing with your neighbors, how about actually trying to get along with them. Joining us with some simple tips on how to deal with those likeable and not so likable neighbors is Betty Wong. She is the executive editor of Family Circle Magazine. Good morning, Betty.男：赶超邻居似乎是人们长期以来的愿望。但是，且不说和邻居竞争，如何真正搞好邻里关系呢?今天贝蒂王来到我们节目，与我们分享如何与那些可爱尚有不太可爱的邻居们相处。贝蒂王是家庭圈杂志的主编。早上好，贝蒂。W: Good morning, Allen.女：早上好，艾伦。M: Well, in an ideal world, I guess we would all get along with our neighbors, wouldnt we?男：抱负情况下，我觉得我们都应当跟邻居和睦相处，对吧?W: Right, right, we hope so.女：对啊，我们希望如此。M: But how do we establish a good relationship? When you move into a neighborhood, right, should you to reach out to the neighbors or should they be reaching out to you?男：那么我们如何跟邻居建立良好的关系呢?搬进新社区，是应当你先去拜访邻居呢，还是邻居先来欢迎你?W: I think it can work either way, I mean, certainly, if they dont reach out to you, dont assume that they are being rude or unfriendly. They just might be holding back because they think youre too busy. So if they dont make that first step, you know, after a few days go ahead and introduce yourself.女：我觉得都可以。我是说，假如他们没来拜访你，不要觉得他们没礼貌、不和谐。他们也许只是在踌躇，觉得你太忙了。所以，假如他们没有迈出第一步，过几天，你可以采用行动，去介绍你自己。M: Yeah, neighbors can be really helpful. But, of course they can also be annoying. For example, neighbors who make a lot of noise.男：对，邻居也许会非常乐于助人。但是，邻居也也许会特别烦人。比如那种制造噪音的邻居。W: Well, loud music is one of those top complaints, and I think you know for most reasons. People, they probably arent even aware that they are causing problems for the neighbor. And I think if you bring it up to your neighbors attention, they will be more than happy to fix it. You could say something like, you know, Im kind of, I am really a light sleeper or I suffered from headache. Can you help me out by, you know, turning down the music during the evening hours or the early morning or come up with a compromise that works for both of you.女：嗯，嘈杂的音乐备受指责，我觉得你应当知道。人们也许察觉不到自己骚扰了邻居。我觉得假如你去找邻居说一下这个问题，他们会乐于改正的。你可以说，“呃，我，我睡觉比较轻”或者“我有点头疼”。“你可不可以帮帮忙，呃，晚上和清早音乐关小点”或者跟邻居商议一个折中的方案。M: Dont just call the police, right, which a lot of people do?男：所以不要动不动就叫警察对吗?好多人都这样做。W: Of course, no.女：当然不要。M: Right, then, what about a nosy neighbor.男：好的，那么，爱管闲事的邻居呢?W: Right, I think a lot of time we made mistake nosy behavior for being, you know, nosy or poky when they are just being kind of trying to be friendly. Or maybe that persons lonely, its, you kind of have to see what the motive is there. And oftentimes if you are a little evasive or, you just dont answer their question they often take the hint and back off.女：嗯，我觉得很多时候我们都误会了。我们觉得是邻居多管闲事，也许他们只是表达和谐的关心。也也许有些人太孤独了。你要看看他们多管闲事是由于什么。并且，假如你表现出逃避，或者，就不回答他们的问题，通常他们就懂了，也就不再问了。M: And the neighbor that comes to visit and wont go away?男：那么那种来了就不走的邻居呢?W: Well, I think you know that. There might be somebody who is just really lonely and wants a friend. You know oftentimes I think the rule is, a five or ten minute visit is fine. Because you know the way you are not imposing on that persons schedule or that persons plan. But you know you dont have to be best friends with her neighbor at all. You can just be polite and say hello in the morning and that makes everybodys relationship so much better.女：嗯，我觉得你知道的。有人只是觉得孤独想交个朋友。我觉得通常到邻居家做客5到10分钟就好。由于这样的话才不会打乱别人的计划。但是不一定非要和邻居做最佳的朋友。礼貌相待，早上见面打声招呼，这就足够拉近关系了。M: Well, thats important, Betty Wong, thanks so much for the tips we appreciate from Family Circle Magazine. And for more on this topic and others, head to the early show website, CBS.男：嗯，这很重要。感谢家庭圈杂志的贝蒂王跟我们分享的小建议。想了解更多这个话题内容，请到CBS的收看早间节目。Questions 6 to 10 are based on Conversation Two.请根据对话2回答第6题到第10题。Question 6 What should we do if our neighbors didnt reach out?第6题 假如邻居不来拜访我们，我们应当怎么办?Question 7 Which is the best way to handle a noisy neighbor?第7题 对待吵闹的邻居，最佳的方法是什么?Question 8 What should we do if we have a nosy neighbor?第8题 假如邻居爱管闲事，我们应当怎么办?Question 9 How long do we expect our neighbors to stay?第9题 去邻居家做客多长时间合适?Question 10 Where can we get more information on this topic?第10题 关于这个话题的更多信息，我们可以从哪里获得?
