13.________ ___________

Free conversation is necessary. However, it is better to balance conversation with other activities in your classes or outside of your classes. In a "one-to-one" class, you should do all of the homework, reading and vocabulary studying outside of your class and then comment on the homework in the class. It is very important for you to do the homework that your teacher assigns you and it is very important for you to be punctual to your classes.

14.________

It's easier to be constant, disciplined and organized if you have a teacher. It's more difficult to study English alone. Also, it is more difficult to learn how to "speak" English if you don't have an English teacher to speak with.

ON THE TRAIL OF ORANGUTANS IN MALAYSIA

    Achong is struggling to push our longboat against the current of Borneo's Batang Ai River, so we jump into the water to assist him. "Stay in the boat," he asks, but we ignore him. It's dry season and every ounce of weight is a factor as the longboat scrapes the bottom of the shallow waterway. This is the only time we ignore Achong.

    Like other tattoo-covered Iban tribesman, he's a master boatman and this is his territory. The Iban, once fearsome headhunters, are also expert trackers who have turned their talents to trailing one of the world's most fascinating endangered creatures: orangutans.

The ape pursuit takes us to Sri Aman Division, a remote area of Sarawak at the border of Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo. Borneo and neighboring Sumatra island are the only places the shaggy-haired red ape survives. The chances of seeing them in the wild are increasingly slim. '"There's no guarantee," warns Borneo Adventure in its ad for the Red Ape Trail, the safari that has brought us deep into the Asian island's dense, steamy jungle." Ape numbers arc about 20,000 and constantly declining due to forestry, palm oil crops and poaching."

Far more certain is searing heat, humidity of 80-100% and slippery conditions. "This walk demands a great deal of physical and mental exertion," says Philip Yong, Borneo Adventure's co-founder. "The region is totally isolated from the outside world."

 

17. The water in the river is … .
low high	extremely low very high
18. The men jump out of the boat because they want … .
A to go home      B to swim	C to help D to go fishing
19. The Iban are….
the orangutans the local people	the poachers the shaggy-haired red apes
20. The group of people are …. .
walking in the dense rainforests climbing the mountains	trekking the sea coast        exploring the desert
21. The rout is …. .
easy pleasant	exhausting fascinating
22. The number of orangutans has decreased due to … .
cutting out the forests soil erosion	lack of water natural disasters

STEPHEN HAWKING WARNS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE COULD END MANKIND

    Professor Stephen Hawking, one of the world's most renowned scientists, has warned that robots and machines with artificial intelligence could one day mean the end of us all. Professor Hawking recently told the British Broadcasting Corporation in an interview that: "The development of full artificial intelligence (AI) could spell the end of the human race." The famous cosmologist made his warning in response to a question about an update to the app he uses to allow him to communicate. Hawking suffers from motor neuron disease (also known as ALS) and needs a special voice synthesizer to talk. The update will be able to predict words he might want to use based on his previous communication.

Hawking said that AI has given many benefits to mankind. He said it is still in its early stages of development, but when it becomes more sophisticated, it could prove a threat to our existence. He said: "It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded." This is not the first time he has issued such a warning. He gave a more chilling warning in April 2014, saying: "One can imagine such technology outsmarting financial markets, out-inventing human researchers, out-manipulating human leaders, and developing weapons we cannot even understand."

17. Which news agency did professor Hawking talk to? A BBC            C CBC В CNN   D ABC

18. Which one of professor Hawking’s jobs was mentioned in the text?   A theoretical physicist     C author   B cosmologist                  D lecturer

19. What will a new app used be Hawking be able to predict?      A words                            С weather       B the future                       D new comets

20. Who has benefited from AI?        A lecturers                       C scientists B computer makers           D humanity

21. What did Hawking say AI threatens?                  A the universe                   C mainframe computers        B our existence                  D Earth

22. What are humans limited by? A physics                           C computers        B their brains                     D biological evolution
