School teachers and parents are always worriedabout whether students are paying attention in class or not. A business schoolin Paris will soon begin using artificial intelligence and facial analysis tosolve the problem. The software，calledNestor，is used in two online classes at the ESG businessschool beginning in September.
The idea，according to LCA founder Marcel Saucet, is to use the data that Nestor collects to improvethe performance of both students and professors. The software uses webcams (网络摄像机) to analyze eye movements and facial expressions ofthe students and determines whether studentsare paying attention to a video lecture. It then formulates quizzes (小测验) based on the content covered during moments ofinattentiveness. Professors would also be able to identify moments whenstudents’ attention waned (衰退), which could help to improve their teaching, Saucet says.
Advocatesfor AI in education say that the software is actually unable to teach a course，but the technology could be used as a digital tutorthat would adapt to a student’s individual needs，and help develop more effective studying habits.Such software could also help teachers by providing feedback on theeffectiveness of their teaching, advocates say.
Saucet says Nestor won’t store any of the videofootage it gets and that his company has no plans to sell any other data thesoftware collects. In addition to facial recognition and analysis, the softwarecan integrate (合并) with students’ calendars to suggest possible study time, and track theironline behavior to pick up on patterns.
Rose Luckin, a professor at the University CollegeLondon Knowledge Lab, says AI could unlock the “black box of learning” byproviding information on how and when learning happens. Luckin says a programlike Nestor could be useful for students who take classes remotely, since“there isn’t a human there watching them”. While some are concerned that AI mayone day replace teachers，Luckinsees the technology more as an assistant，rather than a replacement. Saucet agrees. “Humancontact is not going to go away,” he says. “There will always be professors.”
How does Nestor work to find out when students aren’t paying attention?

Beingphysically challenged can bring about inconvenience in life. But in LenwoodHaddock’s case, being blind works to his advantage. His trained, sensitivehands can perfectly handle every step in the complicated process of weavinghammocks, which takes a sharp eye, a skilled hand and lots of patience. Sincebeginning his craft in 1986, Lenwood has woven about 145,000 perfect hammocks.
Now 61,Lenwood lost his sight in 1973, at age 18, during a hunting accident. “My wholeworking career has been blind,” he says. He first found a job as a woodworker,but when that organization closed, the North Carolina Division of Services forthe Blind connected him with Hatteras Hammocks.
On hisfirst day of work, “I did a total of one hammock,” Lenwood recalls, laughing.“And then I came home and laid on the sofa and went to sleep. I lift weights,but I wasn’t as tough as I thought until I started weaving. It takes a lot ofenergy, and you’re standing up all day.”
In time,however, Lenwood got into a good working rhythm and found he had a gift for thejob. At first he worked on-site at the company, but after a year Lenwood movedhis operation to the home workshop where he’d worked for 10 years during hiswoodworking days.
SinceLenwood began with Hatteras Hammocks 30 years ago, the company has aquiredother brands and changed its name to The Hammock Source. Today, it is theworld’s largest maker and seller of hammocks, all built by hand.
How did Lenwood Haddock feel after he has finished his first hammock?

Although the human body is designed to move, modern lifestylesand office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around -- we’re sitting whilewe’re eating; we sit in the car and we sit while we watch TV. It is common for usto sit for many hours at work.
New research shows that sitting less than threehours a day might extend your life by two years. Peter Katzmarzyk, a scientistat the University of Louisiana in the southern United States, says that sittingis ubiquitous in our lives, meaning it is something we do all thetime, everywhere.
However, Mr. Katzmarzyk says that does not mean youcan sit for the rest of your waking hours. He also says you may exercise often,“We can’t throw away physical activity. It’s extremely important. We have 60years of research showing us that.”
Mr. Katzmarzyk and his colleagues are part of a newgeneration of researchers studying how sitting all day affects the length oflife. “Studies that have assessed the relationship between sitting andmortality (死亡率) or television viewing and mortality are veryrare. There’s only been a few of them, actually five or six now, in the lastfour or five years.” They found that cutting television time to less than twohours a day could add one point four years to life.
Luckily, change is already coming to some offices,especially in the design of desks. A “standing desk” lets people stand whilethey work. Another new design is called the “treadmill desk.” A treadmill is anexercise machine that lets you walk in one place. Even some U.S. schools arebeginning to experiment with desks that are part-bicycle to keep childrenmoving. That’s one of the strategies that many companies are using now.
Mr. Katzmarzyk also says studying this problem hasinspired his team to make a few changes in their own lives.

Will man be the same as what we are today in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now on? We can only make a guess, of course. However, we can be sure that we will greatly differ from what we are today. 36
Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. 37 Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we can imagine that man will continue to grow taller. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
On the other hand, we make less use of our arms and legs. 38 We can’t walk farther. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in moden life. What about our brain? As time goes on, we shall have to use our brains more and more and eventually we shall need larger ones! 39 Our head, in particular the forehead, will be larger.
Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may be true. 40 He will still be a human being with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.
A. Now on average, man is about three inchestaller.
B. Man will live in the earth for a long time.
C. As a result, these are likely to grow weaker.
D. As we know, man is slowly changing all the time.
E. What’s more, man is likely to have a wonderfullife.
F. This is likely to bring about a physical change, too.
G. All in all, in spite ofall these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us.

The other day our school organized a trip to a fire station, which we have expected for several days. In arrival, the fire-fighters gave us big welcome and led us into a grand exhibition hall, which displayed a wide variety of professional tools. Seeing all the equipments, we were amazed at the firemen’s work. In the center of the hall, one of the fire-fighters delivered a lecture on fire control to us, who raised our awareness of taking proper fire precautions. Shortly afterwards, they showed us how to operate a fire extinguisher step by step, making us become eager to have a try. Then, they gave our chances to practice using it. Now, I dare say I can use it skillful! On our way to home, we couldn’t help but talk about what we had experienced.

Dear Sir/Madam,

正确答案
Dear Sir/Madam.
Thank you for your offer of inviting me to the Winter English course in your school. As for my choice between the two courses, I prefer the two-week course for 30 hours of study. Because this would allow me more time to do some traveling and make a few new friends as well.
Of all the subjects I'm learning at school, I like English best. I have been learning English for 6 years but my spoken English remains poor. As a result, I hope to take this chance to improve it. If possible, I’d like to stay with a family for a couple of days so that I can know some customs in England. I believe I will have a wonderful time this winter.
Yourstruly,
Li Hua
