Educators are beginning to study a father's relationship to his child's current and future academic success. As a matter of fact, "life with father" has been discovered to be a very important factor in determining a child's progress or lack of progress in school.    

A recent survey of over 16,000 children made by the National Child Development Study in London revealed that children whose father came to school conferences and accompanied their children on outing did measurably better in school than those children whose fathers were not involved in those activities. The study further revealed that the children of actively-involved fathers scored much higher in reading and math than those children whose only-involved parent was the mother. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the role played by fathers in the raising of a child. It indicated a much higher level of parental involvement by the father than had been anticipated. Over 66% of the fathers were said to have played a major role in parental responsibility.

 

【A father plays a vital role in his child's schooling.】

Automatic cash machines are now a common sight in high streets all over Britain, and there is no doubt that they are a convenient way of withdrawing cash 24 hours a day and seven days a week.

When they put the card into the machine and type their PIN into the computer, customers can withdraw cash, check their bank balance, and sometimes even order a new cheque book and deposit money.

Customers have complained that they have not received the correct money, or that their bank statements show two debits for a single withdrawal. There have even been a few cases where customers say that their statements show a cash withdrawal, when they have never even used the machine.

As more women in theUnited   Statesmove up the professional ladder, more are finding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, (missing idea) _______________________.

Artificial intelligence aims to build machines that can think. One immediate problem is to define (界定) ‘thought’, which is harder than you might think. (1) The specialists in the field of artificial intelligence complain, with some justification, that anything that their machines do is dismissed as not being ‘thought’. For example, computers can now play very, very good chess. They can't beat the greatest players in the world, but they can beat just about anybody else. (2) Most professional players start training from a very earlier age; the earlier, the better. (3) If a human being played chess at this level, he or she would certainly be considered smart. Why not a machine? The answer is that the machine doesn't do anything clever in playing chess. It uses its blinding speed to do a brute-force (残忍的) search of all possible moves for several moves ahead, evaluates the outcomes and picks the best. Humans don't play chess that way. (4) They see patterns, which computers don't.

12、请判断括号内整理出的短语是否是该段落的主题。

Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born for every 100 females, but this ratio drops to near balance at the age of maturity, and among 70-year-olds there are twice as many women as men. But the great universal of male mortality is being changed. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that, for the first time, there will be an excess of boys in those crucial years when they are searching for a mate. More important, another chance for natural selection has been removed. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby (particularly a boy baby) surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the variation is due to genes, one more agent of evolution has gone.

 

【Less severe natural conditions for a man】

Peirce's extensive publications are scattered among various publication media, and have been difficult to collect.

 

(1)   The only intelligent way to publish his works is to organize them chronologically and with extremely careful editing.

 

(2)   Shortly after his death in 1914, his widow Juliette sold his unpublished manuscripts to the Department of Philosophy at Harvard University.

 

(3)   Initially they were under the care of Josiah Royce, but after Royce's death in 1916, and especially after the end of the First World War, the papers were poorly cared for.

 

(4)   Many of them were misplaced, lost, given away, scrambled, and the like.

 

(5)   Carolyn Eisele, one of several heroes in a great effort to locate and assemble Peirce's writings, reports having found a lost trunk of Peirce's papers only in the mid-1950's; it had, apparently for decades, been secreted in an unlit, obscure part of the basement in Harvard's Widener Library.

Man still has a lot to learn about the most powerful and complex part of his body–the brain. In ancient times men did not think that the brain was the centre of mental activity. (1) Aristotle thought that the mind was based in the heart. (2) Older people are likely to suffer from heart attack. (3) It was not until the 18th century that man realized that the whole of the brain was involved in the workings of the mind. (4) Then, during the 19th century scientists found that when certain parts of the brain were damaged men lost the ability to do certain things. (5) People thought that each part of the brain controlled a different activity. However, modern research has found that this is not so. It is not easy to say exactly what each part of the brain does.
