Such advanced technology may make humanity insignificant Kurzweil says that technologies are double-edged swords and envisions the possibility that an artificial intelligence might decide to put an end to humanity simply because it surpasses human intelligence Kurzweil does have faith in mankind, however He suggests that people are wise to accept that technological progress is unavoidable, and that such acceptance will make the process of transition easier Kurzweil has personal reasons to hope for the coming of The Singularity, because he wants his life to be extended by it Kurzweil envisions that future medical advances could invent tiny computerised machines, or nanobots, which operate inside the body to enhance the immune system In addition, he believes that future technology might be able to resurrect his deceased father Looking at the state of current technological advances in many fields such as medicine, navigation, and communication, Kurzweil’s visions may not be unbelievable The critical issue, however, is whether genuine artificial intelligence can ever be truly realised Kurzweil suggests that critics of his theories, who believe that the human brain is too complex to duplicate, are underestimating what the exponential growth in technology can eventually accomplish 1.What is The Singularity? A.An event giving rise to future human beings B.An event giving rise to future artificial intelligence C.An event giving rise to future alien civilisation 2.Why could The Singularity put an end to humans? A.Because A.I might imitate human intelligence B.Because A.I is similar to human intelligence C.Because A.I will exceed human intelligence 3.What does Kurzweil say about technologies? A.Technologies are avoidable B.Technologies are safe and friendly C.Technologies are double-edged swords 4.Why does Kurzweil hope for the coming of The Singularity? A.Because it would have economic advantages B.Because life could be extended DeThi.edu.vn (7) C.Because human would have virtual entertainment 5.How does Kurzweil respond to critics of his theories? A.He thinks that they not evaluate correctly the rapid growth of technology B.He thinks that the realisation of genuine artificial intelligence is a challenge C.He thinks that future events cannot be

(F), or not given (NG) My name is Harry and I live in Bath, a small beautiful city in the south-west of England I left school when I was 18, after taking my A levels My results were not great, but probably high enough for university However, I am not very academic so I decided not to study for a degree I thought there would be lots of companies looking for bright school leavers who want to head straight into the world of work through an apprenticeship Money was also a problem Although there are tuition loans available and my parents were willing to help me financially, I didn’t want to borrow money and then graduate from university with a huge debt I started looking for an apprenticeship and it took me several months to get my first interview My application was not successful; there were more than 4,000 applicants and only 20 were selected I realised that apprenticeships were very competitive so I started to look for other jobs I worked as a barista at coffee shops, I interviewed people on the street, I sold tickets for events, and I was even a human statue at different theme parks and festivals I was not only enjoying myself, but managed to save more than £2,000 Then while I was working at one of the music festivals, I had an idea Why not start up a mobile catering business? Buying a small trailer didn’t require a large investment and finding someone to cook was easy Now I have a team of 15 people, travel to fantastic events around the country, sell delicious food, and

usually have greater choice of applicants They tend to favour the candidates with more employability skills – the skills necessary for getting, keeping, and being successful in a job These skills are varied, ranging from basic ones such as searching for job adverts, writing CVs and covering letters, and coming across well in interviews, to the more advanced skills which are required in order to keep a job for a long time Among the long list of more advanced employability skills, it is very important for all job seekers to equip themselves with interpersonal skills, communication skills, and leadership ability in order to keep and be successful in a job Interpersonal skills are really crucial when seeking employment They are the skills that people use to interact with each other People with good interpersonal skills often co-operate and work well with the others in a team They are also good at negotiating and satisfying the expectations of the people involved In their daily work, interpersonal skills allow them to empathise with colleagues as well as clients, thereby building better working relationships This, as a result, leads to a better working environment with little or no stress ommunication skills are also important for people who are seeking employment or looking for a promotion in their current career because employers nowadays want to find employees who communicate well both verbally DeThi.edu.vn (11) and in writing with a wide variety of people Good communicators can speak and write clearly and succinctly, getting their messages across with less chance of misunderstanding They can also demonstrate a varied vocabulary and tailor their language to different audiences Besides interpersonal and communication skills, having leadership ability is also an advantage in seeking and keeping employment The people with leadership ability tend to influence others towards the achievement of a goal Thus, they often make great team players, allowing them to work in a group to achieve the best results for their employer It is hard to get a job It is even harder to keep it, succeed in it, and gain a promotion However, if people know how to interact properly and communicate well with others, and if they possess leadership ability, they can increase their chance of getting and keeping the job they want a Choose the best title for the text A.The

requirements First and foremost, it is a prerequisite to have a bachelor’s degree in education In the event that a candidate already has a bachelor’s degree in another field, a teacher preparation program is needed But that is not all Almost every school in the USA understands that real classroom teaching experience is a vital part of a teacher's training Before taking over a class, a person typically needs to complete a training program, including working as a supervised student teacher People who want to become university teachers need higher degrees Getting a master’s degree is a necessity, but if it is gained too early there may be concerns that the candidate lacks the real-world experience to go with it In fact, very few schools want to hire novices with little classroom
