教学资料参考范本撰写人：__________________部门：__________________时间：__________________李仕才一、阅读理解A business school in Paris will soon begin using artificial intelligence and facial analysis to determine whether students are paying attention in class. The software, called Nestor, is used in two online classes at the ESG business school beginning in September.The idea, according to LCA founder Marcel Saucet, is to use the data that Nestor collects to improve the performance of both students and professors. The software uses students webcams（网络摄像机）to analyze eye movements and facial expressions and determine whether students are paying attention to a video lecture. It then formulates quizzes based on the content covered during moments of inattentiveness. Professors would also be able to identify moments when students’attention declined, which could help to improve their teaching, Saucet says.Advocates for AI in education say that the software is actually unable to teach a course, but the technology could be used as a digital tutor that would adapt to a student’s individual needs, and help develop more effective studyinghabits. Such software could also help teachers by providing feedback on the effectiveness of their teaching, advocates say.Saucet says Nestor won’t store any of the video footage it gets and that his company has no plans to sell any other datathe software collects. In addition to facial recognition and analysis, the software can integrate（合并）with students’ calendars to suggest possible study times, and track theironline behavior to pick up on patterns.Rose Luckin, a professor at the University College London Knowledge Lab, says AI could unlock the “black box of learning” by providing information on how and when learning happens.Luckin says a program like Nestor could be useful for students who take classes remotely, since “there isn’t a human there watching them.” And while some are concerned that AI may oneday replace teachers, Luckin sees the technology more as an assistant, rather than a replacement. Saucet agrees. “Human contact is not going to go away,” he says. “There willalways be professors.”1.How does Nestor work to find out when students aren’t paying attention?A. By collecting the data of students’ performance indifferent classes.B. By collecting the students’ grades in the quizzes.。

Unit 4 Pygmalion阅读理解·组块专练——练速度(限时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AI learnt about the Pygmalion effect when I was 7 years old at Riverdale School in Palmerston North and I copied Melissa Crawford's answers in a spelling test. Before that I was average at school but after that, because Melissa Crawford was smart, and I got all the right answers, I got put in all the smart kids groups.From then I did really well at school because it was believed by theteachers that I would and I also got grouped with the smart kids. Thisexperience that occurred at my primary school shows just how important thePygmalion effect is in terms of being around mentors (导师) that expect thatyou' re going to do well and also being around people who are smart.The Pygmalion effect is one principle you want to use if you want to make money fast. Have mentors that expect you will make money fast and as an extra boost hang around, copy and learn from other people who are also making money fast.Yesterday this sit e had over 5,000 unique visitors and the traffic to it is increasing all the time. A year ago I contacted a group of people who got lots of traffic on their sites and I learnt from them. Truthfully I don't know if they expected me to start getting decent traffic to websites but I imagined they did so they might as well have.So there you have it the Pygmalion effect.P．S. My grammar and spelling are not that great nowadays but that's actually completely irrelevant (不相关的) when it comes to getting lots of visitors to your site.语篇解读：文章通过自己的经历告诉我们皮革马利翁的神奇力量。

Vitamin B could help reduce the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution, according to a new study published on Monday. In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked into the damage caused by one of the pollutants that have the severest impact on health—PM 2. 5.They found that Vitamin B supplement could effectively reduce the impact of the tiny particles(颗粒)on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stag es. According to the WHO, 92% of the world’s people are living in places where the PM 2. 5 level goes beyond the recommended level. So it’s urgent to find a solution to the problem.According to this study, published in the PNAS, 10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo(安慰剂)to check their baseline responses. The group then kept on taking placebos for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1, 000 cars passed every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an “oxygen type” face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a Vitamin B supplement daily, made up of 2. 5 mg of folic acid, 50 mg of Vitamin B6, and 1 mg of Vitamin B12.Vitamin B6 can be found in liver, chicken, nuts and other things, and Vitamin B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals. The researchers found that four weeks of Vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM 2. 5 effects by 28-76%. The results emphasized how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight against the damage of PM 2. 5, the researchers said.【文章大意】本文主要通过一些实验告诉我们维生素B对减轻PM 2. 5对身体的伤害有什么样的功效。

How can you help kids cope with stress? Proper rest and goodnutrition can improve coping skills, so can good parenting. Make time foryour kids each day. Whether they need to talk with you or just be in thesame room with you, make yourself available.Even as kids get older, quality time is important. It’s really hard for some people to come home after a tiring day of work, get down on the floor, and play with their kids or just talk to them about their day—especially if t hey’ve had a stressful day themselves. But expressing interest in your kids shows that they’ re important to you.Help your child deal with stress by talking about what may be causing it. Together, you can come up with a few solutions. For example, he should cut back on after-school activities, spending more time talking with his parents or teachers, developing an exercise plan or keeping a journal.You can also help by predicting potentially stressful situations and preparing kids for them. For example, let a child know ahead of time, but not too far ahead of time, that a doctor’s appointment is coming up and talk about what will happen there. Keep in mind, though, that younger kids probably won’t need too much advance preparation. Too much information can cause more stress.Remember that some level of stress is normal. Let kids know that it’s OK to feel angry, scared, lonely or anxious and that other people share those feelings, too.When kids can’t or won’t discuss these problems, try talking about you r own concerns. This shows that you’re willing to handle tough topics and are available to talk with when they’re ready. If a child shows symptoms that concern you and is unwilling to talk, consult a counselor (顾问)or other mental health experts.Most pare nts have the skills to cope with their children’s stress. The time to seek professional attention is when any change in behavior continues to exist,when stress is causing serious anxiety, or when the behavior is causing significant problems in functioning at school or at home.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文, 讲述的是如何帮助孩子处理压力的事情。

When I was a boy there were no smart phones，and our television only got one channel clearly.Still，I was never bored.The fields，hills，and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground.I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake.At the backside of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before.It was full of muddy tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides，but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.I walked on and on for hours.I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear“Turn around and head back home”，but I was stubborn，so I walked on.There was still neither a car nor a house in sight.I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared.I didn't want to end up trapped on this road，and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me.My heart was pounding and my legs were aching.I was almost in tears when I turned one last curve and saw something in the distance.It was a house that I recognized.I jumped up and down and laughed out loud.It was still over a mile away but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time.I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner.I remembered this re cently when I saw a sign that said “All roads lead home”．It is true.In life，all roads，no matter how they twist and turn，can lead us home again.What is important，though，is how we travel them.Are we going to go forth in fear or are we going to go forth in faith？Are we going to make this life a terrible trip or are we going to make this life a joyful journey？The choice is ours.1．Why did the author hardly feel bored when he was young?A．Because he could have fun in nature.B．Because he could watch TV all day.C．Because he had many friends.D．Because he used to explore the old dirt road.2．How did the author feel when he was exploring the dirt road?A．He thought he would be scolded by his parents.B．He felt contradictory in mind.C．He thought he would be trapped in the woods.D．He was unconscious.3．What does “something” probably mean in Paragraph 3?A．Doubt. B．Hope.C．Courage. D．Fear.4．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?A．Always make choices on our own.B．All roads lead home.C．It's our attitude that matters in our life.D．Every effort is worthwhile.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。
