According to Owen's father, Will Howkins, at present there are only around 30 people in the world with the illness. Owen always needs a ‎ 5‎ wheelchair to get around. Not surprisingly, people are always looking at him and that used to make the young boy nervous and uncomfortable. Owen became lonely and even stopped going outside his house. That, however, was all before a dog named Haatchi came into his life!‎ Haatchi had a very difficult start in life, too. When he was just five months old, the dog was hit by a train. His tail and a leg were hurt so badly that both had to be cut off. Luckily, his story was posted online and was seen by Owen's father and mother. They fell in love with Haatchi and decided to keep it, thinking that they were helping it.‎ In fact, it was Haatchi who helped them. By always staying with Owen, it became the boy's best friend. Slowly, Owen liked going out. Now he proudly walks around the neighborhood, showing off his dog and telling anyone Haatchi's story.‎ Haatchi's influence on the young boy is great. In October 2012, the International Fund for Animal Welfare gave Haatchi a special award(奖). The amazing friendship between the two has been shown in a short film called A Boy and His Dog.

They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo(舒缓的节拍).‎ ‎　　“Exercise seems to cause good changes in the nerve(神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added.‎ ‎　　The volunteers said they felt better after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.‎ ‎　　Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.‎ ‎15.What does the underlined word “enhance” mean?

We are living in a world that depends more and more on AI. AI is a group of technologies that help machines get,understand and use information to do tasks. ‎ AI's recent developments have got a lot of social attention. Some people have welcomed AI because it makes things possible. For example, AI will have a big influence on areas like medicine and engineering. But this attention has also produced a lot of fear. Especially,many workers are worrying that AI could make them lose their jobs. ‎ According to a recent study,nearly five percent of jobs will disappear because of AI. In some industries, AI is already doing the work that people used to do, such as assembling(装配) cars, digging the coal and lifting goods. Self-driving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the drivers' jobs in the future. ‎ On the other hand,AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programs for AI systems(系统) and they will set up and work on them,too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced(取代) by AI. These include jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training. ‎ AI is here. It is changing how people live and work in many ways. That makes AI important to watch, not to fear. ‎ ‎19.What is AI according to this passage?(不超过20个词)‎ ‎  ‎ ‎20.Why are many workers worrying about AI?
