1、When you look into the mirror, you may wonder whether it is possible for us to have a twin self who can do lots of challenging things for us, like the difficult project to be finished ahead. Now with the invention of digital twins, it seems possible.
A digital twin is a copy of things like the products or persons in the online forms. Like humans, a digital twin can also develop itself as long as they are fed with enough data (数据).
In 1970, when Apollo 13 was carrying out its task in space, something went wrong with the spaceship, leaving astronauts stranded (困住) 200,000 miles from Earth, NASA engineers used spacecraft data to recreate the conditions of the broken part of the spacecraft. This method allowed them to develop solutions that finally brought the astronauts safely home. This event is widely thought as the birth of digital twins. Since then, this technology has been used in many fields, including business, medicine, and more recently, human modelling.
One of the most fantastic uses of digital twins is in health care. Professor Declan O'Regan, an AI expert, shows the new method can help doctors treat certain illness easily and quickly, and it can even help doctors to find ways to stop some kind of illness before it is too late.
Another successful example is to use the digital twin to change the sports science to some degree. Compared with the past when the coaches needed to set up a program to help train the sportspersons, they now use the data to build the digital twin to help the athletes to improve their skills and avoid accidents in sports.
Not everything about the digital twin is good. It is clear that the new technology will influence us a lot, but what direction it will take in the future remains to be seen. There are some doubts over it, as it will result in problems related to ethical (道德的) consideration.
(1)、How does the writer lead in the topic?A、By listing numbers. B、By offering an example. C、By comparing facts. D、By presenting a situation(2)、Which of the following is an example of the digital twin?A、A twin brother of Tony Smith B、A human-like robot C、A number of online copy of things D、An ongoing online copy of things(3)、Which of the following sentence is correct?A、A digital twin can just offer people a large amount of data. B、It is computer engineer who found the digital by accident. C、Everything about the digital twin is good enough for people. D、People improve performance at work thanks to digital twin.(4)、What will be continued to talk about at the end of the passage?A、The disadvantages of the digital twin. B、The different opinions of the scientists. C、The technology to improve digital twin. D、The future direction of the digital twin. -
2、A marathon is a long running race of 42.195 kilometres. The first Olympic Marathon was held in Athens. Now, many cities host their own marathons every year. Some of the well-known marathons around the world are the New York City Marathon, the Boston Marathon and the Tokyo Marathon. Among them, the Boston Marathon is the oldest yearly Marathon in the world. As time goes by, the sport has become more than just a race.
Themes (主题) make marathons fun and meaning. Runners run for helping sick kids, memorizing important events, or just enjoying nature. A famous marathon in Gisborne, New Zealand, is known for being the first city in the world to welcome the sunlight every day. Runners can greet the sunrise as they run along the golden sandy beaches.
Marathon routes (线路) let people know more about this old sport. Some routes are very challenging for runners. Runners of all skill levels can sweat (流汗) freely and push their limits (极限). Some routes are well planned for runners to explore the many sides of a city. For example, the route of the Great Wall Marathon takes the runners along the great wonder of the world. In fact, it's also a chance to get to know Beijing, its people and local culture.
A marathon is quite a journey for runners to enjoy the run, challenge themselves and experience the culture. There is so much more behind the race for us to explore.
