Using the Didi app is quicker than hailing（招呼）a taxi, and using an app to order supper is quicker and easier than _27_（cook）a meal. And, of course, if something is needed immediately（medicine, etc.

In cases _28_ people work on their computers from home, they may seldom have a face-to-face conversation with others. This lack of interaction can be mentally un

Parkinsons disease is a choronic, degenerative neurological disorder that affects the bodys motor system, often causing shaking and other d

Misappropriation is taking the Intellectual property of others without _43_ compensation and using it for monetary gain. Legal protection is
15、 provided for the _44_ of intellectual property. The three common types of legal protection are patents, copyrights, and trademarks. Patents provide exclusive use of inventions. If the US Patent office_45_ a patent, it is confirming that the intellectual property is_46_. The patent prevents others f

A copyright protects the creator of an_49_ artistic or intellectual work, such as a song or a novel. A copyright gives the owner

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）Can artificial intellige
23、nce uncover a liar? It sounds like science fiction, but such an AI system is possible. The question is: How accurate can it be? Rada Mihalcea, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, has worked on deception detection for about a decade. This is how they constru
24、cted one AI deception detector, and how it works.The first thing that researchers working on artificial intelligence and machine learning need is data. In the case of the work that Mlhalcea did, they began with videos from actual court cases. For example, a defendant speaking in a trial in which the
25、y were found guilty could provide an example of deceit; they also used testimony from witnesses as either example of truthful or deceitful statements. Altogether, they used 121 video clips and the corresponding transcripts of what they saidabout half represented deceptive statements, and half truthf
26、ul. It was this data that they used to build machine learning classifiers that ultimately had between a 60 to 75 percent accuracy rate.One thing the system noticed is the use of pronounspeople who are lying would tend to less often use the wordIorwe，Mihalcea explains.“Instead, people who are lying w
27、ould more often useyou,yours,he,they,andshe.”Thats not the only linguistic signal: someone telling a lie would use“stronger words”that“reflect certainty,”she says. Examples of those types of words are“absolutely,”and“very,”while interestingly, people telling the truth were more likely to use words such as“maybe”or“probably.”“I think people who are deceptive would try to make up for the lie they are putting forward,”she says,“and so they try to seem more certain of themselves.”As for gestures, she points out that someone being deceitful would more likely look directly into the ey
