Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock,the salesman immediately finds it,and the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well,the deal can be and often is completed inless than five minutes.

For a man,small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants.In that case,thesalesman,tries to sell the customer something else.“I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be thecolour you mentioned.”Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is: “This is the right colour and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

However,a woman in almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on needand she is only “having a look around”.She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her.She will try on any number ofthings.Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another,often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.

Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.

Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.

In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.

Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.

“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”

1.What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?

A. The absence of blackboard in classroom

B. The use of new technologies in teaching.

C. The lack of practice in handwriting.

D. The popular use of smartphones.

2.Berninger’s study published in 2009 ___________.

A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.

B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.

C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.

D. discussed the importance of writing speed.

3.Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?

A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.

B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.

C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.

D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.

4.What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean?

A. Window. B. Soul

C. Picture. D. Imagination.

5.What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?

A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.

B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.

C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.

D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.

Writing one or two articles a day is a fair goal for a human writer. By contrast, the Wordsmith platform can produce up to 2,000 articles a second! Wordsmith is one example of natural language-generation software, often referred to as a robot journalist. To be fair, the software doesn’t start from the beginning, like a human writer might. Instead, the software takes a set of structured data and transforms it into readable text.

Natural language-generation software, such as Wordsmith and Quill, does its work by identifying trends and highlights in sets of data. The software then searches its own dictionary for the words to express its findings.

Why keep human writers around

Although this type of software writes faster than any human, it requires sets of structured data to work. That’s why it’s especially useful for writing earnings reports and other types of “dry” writing. Humans, on the other hand, are good at turning their unstructured thoughts directly into prose. The reports produced by Wordsmith and Quill read naturally, and they can match the tone of human writers. But for now, the robot journalists probably won’t steal many jobs or win any Pulitzer Prizes!(普利策奖)

Current applications of natural language-generation software

Financial reports: The software is commonly used by banks or traders to analyze large amounts of financial data and then produce reports in plain English.

Health and fitness: The software can turn data gathered from wearable devices or fitness trackers into personalized reports. The writing tone can even be adjusted to sound more encouraging!

Sports reporting: The software is often used to turn real baseball, basketball and football statistics into exciting stories.

1.What does natural Language-generation software refer to?

A. The Wordsmith platform.

B. A robot journalist.

C. A special dictionary.

D. Articles written by computer.

2.Natural language-generation software can_________.

A. discover the world’s focuses through the Internet

B. write well enough to win Pulitzer Prizes

C. produce articles in a tone similar to human’s

D. write such beautiful prose as human writers

3.We can learn from the passage that natural Language-generation software ________.

A. has taken the place of human writers currently

B. is only able to turn structured data into dry reports

C. is widely used in all the fields

D. works properly only with the help of sets of structured data

4.Nowadays Natural language-generation software is seldom used by_________.

A. schools B. banks

C. hospitals D. newspapers
