When Param Jaggi was five years old, he had a passion to take things apart to see what was inside. He started with toys and even broke a computer, which made his parents not too pleased. As he got older, he shifted from breaking things to building things, which greatly comforted his parents. In middle school. he started working on projects in his kitchen laboratory, and his first project was making biofuels.
Although Jaggi’s parents initially thought his experiments were just a boyhood fancy, he remained determined to make a difference to the environment. Eventually, his parents came around and started supporting his dreams. Jaggi’s interest continued as he grew up, but he focused more on solving real problems, especially those related to the environment.
At 17, Jaggi went beyond his school projects and. co-founded Ecoviate, a company that uses technology to solve everyday energy and environmental problems. He planned to transform people’s idea that going green is expensive, by making available a series of affordable products that are easy to use. Through Ecoviate, he designed products that could contribute to a greener future. One of his notable inventions was the “CO2ube”, a device that could be attached to vehicle tailpipes to reduce carbon emissions, and it’s available to many people at low prices. He also created a smartwatch that changed body heat into energy, which can be used to power up the watch as well as mobile phones.
Young Jaggi, now a third-grade college student studying engineering and economics, has become a famous eco-innovator and his company is developing promisingly. However, Jaggi’s vision to save the environment goes beyond creating products. He plans to launch an online platform through Ecoviate, which will encourage young students interested in science and technology to get actively involved in innovation and invention. Students can submit a science project online, and talk about the help that they need to make the project a reality.
4. What can we learn about Jaggi

A new study reveals that pigeons (鸽子) can tackle some problems just like artificial intelligence, enabling them to solve difficult tasks that might challenge humans. Previous research has theorized that pigeons employ a problem-solving strategy, involving a trial-and- error approach, which is similar to the approach used in AI models but differs from humans’ reliance on selective attention and rule use. To examine it, Brandon Turner, a psychology professor at the Ohio State University, and his colleagues conducted the new study.
In the study, the pigeons were presented with various visual images, including lines of different widths and angles, and different types of rings. The pigeons had to peck (啄) a button on the right or left to indicate the category to which the image belonged. If they got it correct, they received food; if they were wrong, they received nothing. Results showed that, through trial and error, the pigeons improved their accuracy in categorization tasks, increasing their correct choices from about 55% to 95%.
Researchers believed pigeons used associative learning, which is linking two phenomena with each other. For example, it is easy to understand the link. between “water” and “wet”. “Associative learning is frequently assumed to be far too primitive to. explain complex visual categorization like what we saw the pigeons do,” Turner said. But that’s exactly what the researchers found.
The researchers’ AI model tackled the same tasks using just the two simple mechanisms that pigeons were assumed to use: associative learning and error correction. And, like the pigeons, the AI model learned to make the right predictions to significantly increase the number of correct answers. For humans, the challenge when given tasks like those given to pigeons is that they would try to come up with rules that could make the task easier. But in this case, there were no rules, which upsets humans.
What’s interesting, though, is that pigeons use this method of learning that is very similar to AI designed by humans, Turner said. “We celebrate how smart we are that we designed artificial intelligence: at the same time, we regard pigeons as not clever animals,” he said.
8. What is the purpose of the new study
A. To test a theory. B. To evaluate a model.
C. To employ a strategy. D. To involve an approach.
9. What were the pigeons expected to do in the experiment
A. Draw circles. B. Correct errors. C. Copy gestures. D. Identify images.
10. What do pigeons and AI have in common according to the study
A. They are of equal intelligence.
B They are good at making rules.
C. They respond rapidly to orders from humans.
D. They employ simple ways to get things done.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pigeons’ trial-and-error method is revealed
B. Pigeons outperform humans in tough tasks
C. “Not smart” pigeons may be as smart as AI
D. AI models after pigeons’ learning approach
D
You’ve probably heard someone lament (惋惜) the state of “kids today” that current generations aren’t as smart as the ones that came before them. However, psychologists who study intelligence have found that there isn’t much support for this idea; instead, the opposite may actually be true.
The Flynn effect, first described in the 1980s by researcher James Flynn, refers to the finding that scores on IQ tests have increased in the past century. Researchers studying this effect have found wide support for this phenomenon. One research paper, published by psychologist Lisa Trahan and her colleagues, combined the results of other published studies (which included a total of over 14,000 participants) and found that IQ scores have indeed increased since the 1950s, although researchers have documented some exceptions.
Researchers have put forward several theories to explain the Flynn effect. One explanation has to do with improvements in health and nutrition. For example, the past century has seen a decrease in smoking, discontinuation of the use of harmful lead paint, improvements in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, and improvements in nutrition. As Scott Barry Kaufman writes for Psychology Today. “The Flynn effect serves as a reminder that when we give people more opportunities to prosper, more people do prosper. ”
Another explanation for the Flynn effect has to do with societal changes that have occurred in the past century as a result of the Industrial Revolution. According to Flynn, the world today is “a world where we’ve had to develop new mental habits.” Flynn has found that IQ scores have increased the most rapidly on questions that ask us to find similarities between different things and more abstract types of problem- solving- both of which are things that we need to do more of in the modern world.
The Flynn effect tells us that the human mind is much more adaptable than we might have thought. It seems that some of our thinking patterns aren’t necessarily innate, but rather things that we learn from our environment. When exposed to modern industrial society, we think about the world in different ways that our ancestors did. In other words, instead of being a measure of natural, unlearned intelligence, IQ may be something that can be shaped by the education we receive and the society we live in.
12. How did Trahan and her colleagues’ research support the Flynn effect
A. By explaining the cause and effect. B. By surveying over 14, 000 participants.
C. By making documents of the exceptions. D. By relating to the results of other studies.
13. Which of the following reasons for increasing IQ scores is WRONG
A. Many of the public health issues are being addressed.
B. We do more abstract types of problem- solving nowadays.
C. People attach more importance to intellectual development.
D. The Industrial Revolution changed people’s habits of mind.
14. What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word “innate” in paragraph 5
A. Hard to explain. B. Exactly the same. C. Naturally born. D. Likely to change.
15. What’s the main idea of this passage
A. Scores on IQ tests have improved over time.
B. Modem society gives people more opportunities.
C. Studying the Flynn effect is helpful for education.
D. People have wrong opinions about current generations.

【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究，该研究揭示了鸽子在某些问题解决上的能力与人工智能相似，并通过实验验证了这一观点。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study reveals that pigeons (鸽子) can tackle some problems just like artificial intelligence, enabling them to solve difficult tasks that might challenge humans. Previous research has theorized that pigeons employ a problem-solving strategy, involving a trial-and- error approach, which is similar to the approach used in AI models but differs from humans’ reliance on selective attention and rule use. To examine it, Brandon Turner, a psychology professor at the Ohio State University, and his colleagues conducted the new study.(一项新的研究表明，鸽子可以像人工智能一样解决一些问题，使它们能够解决可能挑战人类的困难任务。先前的研究推测，鸽子采用一种解决问题的策略，包括试错法，这与人工智能模型中使用的方法类似，但不同于人类对选择性注意和规则使用的依赖。为了检验这一点，俄亥俄州立大学的心理学教授布兰登·特纳和他的同事进行了这项新研究)”可知，这项新研究的目的是为了检验一个理论。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In the study, the pigeons were presented with various visual images, including lines of different widths and angles, and different types of rings. The pigeons had to peck (啄) a button on the right or left to indicate the category to which the image belonged.(在这项研究中，研究人员向鸽子展示了各种视觉图像，包括不同宽度和角度的线条，以及不同类型的环。鸽子必须啄一下图片左边或右边的一个按钮来表示图片所属的类别)”可知，鸽子在实验中需要识别图像。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The researchers’ AI model tackled the same tasks using just the two simple mechanisms that pigeons were assumed to use: associative learning and error correction.(研究人员的人工智能模型只使用了假设鸽子使用的两种简单机制：联想学习和纠错)”以及最后一段“What’s interesting, though, is that pigeons use this method of learning that is very similar to AI designed by humans, Turner said. “We celebrate how smart we are that we designed artificial intelligence: at the same time, we regard pigeons as not clever animals,” he said.(Turner说，有趣的是，鸽子使用的这种学习方法与人类设计的人工智能非常相似。他说：“我们为自己设计出人工智能而感到高兴，但同时，我们认为鸽子并不聪明。”)”可知，根据这项研究，鸽子和人工智能都采用简单的方法来完成任务。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要通过介绍弗林效应证明智商测试分数在过去一个世纪有所提高。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One research paper, published by psychologist Lisa Trahan and her colleagues, combined the results of other published studies (which included a total of over 14, 000 participants) and found that IQ scores have indeed increased since the 1950s, although researchers have documented some exceptions. (心理学家Lisa Trahan和她的同事发表的一篇研究论文结合了其他已发表研究的结果（共包括14000多名参与者），发现自20世纪50年代以来，智商得分确实有所提高，尽管研究人员记录了一些例外情况)”可知，Lisa Trahan和她的同事通过与其他研究的结果相联系，以此支持弗林效应。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Researchers have put forward several theories to explain the Flynn effect. One explanation has to do with improvements in health and nutrition. For example, the past century has seen a decrease in smoking, discontinuation of the use of harmful lead paint, improvements in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, and improvements in nutrition. (研究人员提出了几种理论来解释弗林效应。一种解释与健康和营养的改善有关。例如，在过去的一个世纪里，吸烟人数减少，有害含铅油漆的使用停止，传染病的预防和治疗得到改善，营养得到改善。)”、第四段“Another explanation for the Flynn effect has to do with societal changes that have occurred in the past century as a result of the Industrial Revolution. According to Flynn, the world today is “a world where we’ve had to develop new mental habits.” (弗林效应的另一种解释与上个世纪工业革命带来的社会变革有关。根据弗林的说法，当今世界是“一个我们不得不培养新思维习惯的世界”。根据弗林的说法，当今世界是“一个我们不得不培养新思维习惯的世界”)”以及第五段“When exposed to modern industrial society, we think about the world in different ways that our ancestors did. In other words, instead of being a measure of natural, unlearned intelligence, IQ may be something that can be shaped by the education we receive and the society we live in. (当我们接触到现代工业社会时，我们以与祖先不同的方式思考世界。换句话说，智商可能不是衡量自然、未经学习的智力的指标，而是我们所接受的教育和所生活的社会所塑造的。)”可知，文章提及的可能解释智商分数的因素，包括许多公共卫生问题正在得到解决、如今我们采用更为抽象的问题解决方式、以及工业革命改变了人们的思维习惯，但文章并未提及人们更加重视智力发展。故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段“The Flynn effect tells us that the human mind is much more adaptable than we might have thought. It seems that some of our thinking patterns aren’t necessarily innate, but rather things that we learn from our environment. (弗林效应告诉我们，人类的思想比我们想象的更具适应性。似乎我们的一些思维模式不一定是innate，而是我们从环境中学到的东西。)”可知，我们的一些思维模式是我们从环境中学到的东西，由此可知，这不一定是天生的，推测划线单词表示“天生的”，与Naturally born意义相近。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The Flynn effect, first described in the 1980s by researcher James Flynn, refers to the finding that scores on IQ tests have increased in the past century. Researchers studying this effect have found wide support for this phenomenon. (弗林效应最早由研究人员詹姆斯·弗林在20世纪80年代描述，指的是智商测试得分在过去一个世纪有所提高的发现。研究这一效应的研究人员发现，这一现象得到了广泛支持。)”以及文章提及的可能解释智商测试分数提升现象的因素可知，文章通过介绍弗林效应证明智商测试分数在过去一个世纪有所提高，即随着时间的推移，智商测试的分数有所提高。故选A。
