an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. But at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth． Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in e-waste find their way into the environment. Plastic is burned outdoors and chemical water is poured into rivers. Greenpeace, an environmental group, has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted．
The Chinese government wants the country to develop, but in a way that doesn?t do harm to the environment and people?s life. This year, China presents a new environmental protection law, the strictest one we have ever had. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. This is because the companies that make computers know best how to deal with them safely. Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in the near future．

In the new film, Avengers: Age of Ultron（复联 奥创纪元), a computer which is designed to bring peace to the world decides that the simplest way to achieve peace is to kill all humans—no people, no war. Yet the computer, Ultron, finally failed, but the film is making people nervous about what the future will be like when machines become programmed with artificial intelligence (人工智能).
Artificial intelligence is the ability of computers to do things that require thought. Right now computers don?t really think, they just process a lot of information very quickly. But scientists are developing new computers that will act like the human brain. They will be able to think and create, and not just follow the instructions of a human programmer.
Gray Scott, an American scientist who spends his time thinking about the future, is hopeful about the future of artificial intelligence and says it will be helpful to humans. It will do most of our jobs and allow people to enjoy life. However, Elon Musk, the inventor of the Tesla electric car, says these machines with artificial intelligence are “probably more dangerous than anything
else” and once they begin thinking for themselves they will be out of human control.
It?s a bit frightening to think that some day, instead of machines working for us, we will be working for them; or, even worse, not working at all. By 2018, it?s said that 50 percent of American jobs will be done by computers. People with little knowledge and few skills had got most of these jobs. However, with artificially intelligent machines, even highly educated and highly skilled workers may be out of work. Engineers, doctors, and even scientists may find themselves jobless.
In 19th century England, there was a group called the Luddites. They were textile(纺织的) workers whose jobs had been replaced by machines. They destroyed the machines in hopes of getting their jobs back. It didn?t work. Technology moved forward, as it always does, and people had to adapt (适应).
Perhaps one day we will have to use our “real? intelligence to make sure a machine?s ?artificial? intelligence doesn?t lose control and cause more harm than good. 42. What is artificial intelligence? A. A kind of new computer.
B. A group of smart people.
C. The ability of computers to do things that need thought. D. The ability of humans to do things that require thought.
43. The workers destroyed the machines in 19th century England because ______. A. they were paid little
B. they hoped to get more money
C. machines broke down from time to time D. machines took away their jobs 44. What can we know from the passage?
A. People all believe that artificial intelligence is harmless to the world.
B. Elon Musk warned the public of the possible danger that artificial intelligence might bring. C. Gray Scott doesn?t think artificial intelligence is helpful to humans. D. Nobody with knowledge and skills will be out of jobs in the future. 45. What?s the main idea of the passage? A. Computers can think like people.
B. Machines with artificial intelligence will control the world. C. People will control the machines with artificial intelligence. D. Artificial intelligence makes people nervous.
