Microsoft’s AI (人工智能) finished the first-ever poetry collection (诗集) on May 19h. It’s said that the 1 is the first one written by an AI in human history. What 2 news!
The AI, named Xiaoice (or Microsoft Little Ice), wrote more than 10,000 poems (诗歌) 3 2,760 hours. Of those, 139 were chosen (被选) for the collection, named “Sunshine Misses Windows”. The book has 10 parts, each showing a human 4 such as loneliness, wish or happiness.
The AI first studied all the modern poems of about 519 poets in the world. It would 5 about 100 years for a human writer to make such a big preparation and study.
Since February, the AI has been sending its poems onto the Internet. But 6 people have guessed that the words were written by AI. They thought it was just a common poet(诗人).
“Every time it sees a picture, it gets an idea and 7 modern poems,” said Dong Huan, the producer of the book. Dong added that the collection kept all the original wording (原作), 8 it probably has some small mistakes (错误).
“Xiaoice isn’t 9 in some ways. Some poems may ever sound the same. But we just want to show 10 the 100 percent AI poems,” said Dong. Will you buy one copy of this poetry collection

Betty is a biologist. She studies brain diseases that come along with aging. Her 11 is not an easy one. She is trying to understand what goes wrong with the brain over time, and how people can age in a healthy way. It is very important, especially when people are living a 12 life now.
Betty does not have a natural gift (天赋) for math. She never 13 that she could be a scientist one day when she was little. Now, she has got a doctor’s degree in biology and become a famous 14 researcher. Betty has made it partly because she is curious about everything. This is a very 15 quality for a scientist. Another 16 is that she is a creative thinker. “After all, science is all about problem-solving,” Betty said.
Betty thinks the best part of her research is trying out an idea to see if it will work. Her heart is filled with joy when her idea is proved right and 17 by other scientists. But when things don’t go 18 as she plans, she feels no disappointment. She says mistakes may 19 a new idea.

One day, our teacher, Mr. Sims, announced that the seventh grade field trip would be to a theme park. The classroom was filled with excitement as the girls discussed what they would wear and what they should bring with them. I sat back and listened, knowing that my parents did not have the money to send me. It made me 66 to feel so left out. But not Danny. He simply told everyone that he wouldn’t be going. When Mr. Sims asked him 67 , Danny stood up and said, “It’s too much money for me. My dad hurt his back and has been out of 68 for a while. I’m not asking my parents for money.”
Sitting back down in his seat, Danny held his head up 69 , even though whispering had already begun. I could only sit quietly in my seat, knowing those 70 could be about me when they found out I would not be going either.
“Dan, I’m very proud of you for 71 the situation that your parents are in,” Mr. Sims replied.
Seeing the students whispering in the back, Mr. Sims spoke again, only 72 .
“This year, we’re going to do things differently. The trip is not until the end of the month, so there’s plenty of time for money 73 . Each student must bring in at least one idea for that. If a student doesn’t want to help, then he or she will be staying here that day. Any 74 ”
Of course, Shelly, the most popular girl in the class, spoke up.
“Well, Mr. Sims, my parents can 75 it. Do I still have to help ”
“Shelly, this is not a matter of being rich or poor. Money is not just something that is handed to you when you get older. This will be a great learning experience for everyone, whether you have the money or not.”

Suppose that in a future classroom, a girl is taking a test. Her exam paper is made by an artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) model according to her 86 . When she finishes her paper, she hands in her paper to her teacher who will later use another AI model to 87 the paper. Then based on the test result, a new learning plan will be made for the girl. This is personalized education at its best.
Could this be the future of AI in education Certainly! With the development of high technology, the realization of an AI classroom will come earlier than we 88 . Here comes the question: How does AI help students learn better
In a classroom with AI technology, both the learning plans and the tests are personalized, and this allows students to learn at their own speed and in their own way. During the learning process, AI models keep monitoring students’ facial expressions to 89 discover when students get into trouble. More amazingly, AI can even predict signs of trouble before students themselves are aware of it. This early prediction enables AI to offer timely (及时的) solutions to problems and suggestions about a better learning plan.
90 , AI technology has made it possible to develop special programs for those who struggle with learning. A company in Massachusetts used AI technology and created a well-known software—Dragon Speech Recognition. With the 91 of voice recognition (识别), students can complete tasks just by speaking. This may be a great helper to those who have difficulty in writing.
The role of AI in education may become more and more important. Perhaps, we will see an AI classroom in the near future. Education will be personalized to a student’s advantage, bringing a more enjoyable learning experience for all students.
