Exercise 5: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 26 to 30.

The first Industrial Revolution was about harnessing steam power so that muscle could be replaced by machines. The second was driven by electricity and a cluster of inventions from the late 19th century onwards - including the internal combustion engine, the aeroplane and moving pictures. A third revolution began in the 1960s and was based on digital technology, personal computing and the development of the Internet. Industrial Revolution 4.0 will be shaped by a fresh wave of innovation in areas such as driverless cars, smart robotics, materials that are lighter and tougher, and a manufacturing process built around 3D printing.

There are some myths about Industrial Revolution 4.0. The first is that it won’t really have as big an impact as the previous periods of change, most especially the breakthroughs associated with the second industrial revolution. In the past, it has always taken time to feel the full effects of technological change and many of today's advances are in their infancy. It is far too early to say that the car or air travel will prove to be less important than the sequencing of the human genome or synthetic biology. The second myth is that the process will be trouble free provided everything is left to the market. It is a fantasy to believe that the wealth created by the fourth Industrial Revolution will cascade down from rich to poor, and that those displaced will just walk into another job that pays just as well.

Indeed, all the evidence so far is that the benefits of the coming change will be concentrated among a relatively small elite, thus exacerbating the current trend towards greater levels of inequality. This was a point stressed by the Swiss bank UBS in a report launched in Davos. It notes that there will be a “polarization of the labor force as low-skill jobs continue to be automated and this trend increasingly spreads to middle class jobs."

Question 26: The best title for this passage could be

A. Four Industrial Revolutions in human history

B. Some myths about four Industrial Revolutions

C. The benefits of the fourth Industrial Revolution

D. The greatest inventions in human history

Question 27: Which statement about four Industrial Revolutions is FALSE according to the passage?

A. The first Industrial Revolution brought about steam power machines.

B. A third revolution began in the 1970 and led to the development of the Internet.

C. The second was driven by electricity and a cluster of inventions from the late 19th century onwards.

D. Driverless cars, smart robotics can be said to be products of Industrial Revolution 4.0

Question 28: The word “it" in paragraph 2 refers to ?

A. myths

B. Industrial Revolution 1.0

C. Industrial Revolution 3.0

D. Industrial Revolution 4.0

Question 29: In paragraph 2, the writer suggests that

A. Industrial Revolution 4.0 will really have as big an impact as the previous periods of change.

B. Many of today's advances resemble those in the past.

C. It is far too early to say that the sequencing of the human genome or synthetic biology will prove to be more significant than the car or air travel.

D. The fourth Industrial Revolution will cascade down from rich to poor.

Question 30: The word “exacerbating” in paragraph 3 means

A. worsening

B. lessening

C. minimizing

D. changing

Exercise 6: Choose the letter A, B, C or D to complete the passage below

It may be that media have made the AI safety debate seem more (31)_______than it really is. After all, fear sells, and articles using out-of-context quotes to (32)_______ imminent doom can generate more clicks than nuanced and balanced ones. (33) _______, two people who only know about each other’s positions from media quotes are likely (34)_______ think they disagree more than they really do. For example, a techno-skeptic who only read about Bill Gates’s position in a British tabloid may mistakenly think Gates believes superintelligence to be imminent. Similarly, someone in the beneficial-AI movement (35) _______who knows nothing about Andrew Ng’s position except his quote about overpopulation on Mars may mistakenly think he doesn’t care about AI safety, whereas in fact, he does. The crux is simply that because Ng’s timeline estimates are longer, he naturally tends to prioritize short-term AI challenges over long-term ones.

Exercise 7: Choose the letter A, B, C or D to answer these following questions

According to futurist Ray Kurzweil human civilisation will be unavoidably transformed in the year 2045 by an event that he call The Singularity. He suggests that exponential technological development will lead to the inevitable rise of artificial intelligence (A.I.). Such advanced technology may make humanity insignificant.
Kurzweil says that technologies are double-edged swords and envisions the possibility that an artificial intelligence might decde 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 ne 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.

Question 36: 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.

Question 37: 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.

Question 38: What does Kurzweil say about technologies?
A. Technologies are avoidable.

B. Technologies are safe and friendly.

C. Technologies are double-edged swords.

Question 39: Why does Kurzweil hope for the coming of The Singularity?
A. Because it would have economic advantages.

B. Because life could be extended

C. Because human would have virtual entertainment.

Question 40: How does Kurzweil respond to critics of his theories
A. He thinks that they do 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 predicted with our current mean
