When Sarah Lee was a child, she loved to watch the birds in her backyard and wonder

how they could fly so effortlessly. As she grew older, Sarah became interested in the science

behind flight and decided to study aerospace engineering in college.

After graduation, Sarah began working for a company that designed airplanes. However,

she soon realized that the traditional methods of airplane design were not always efficient or

sustainable. She began to wonder if there was a way to design airplanes that mimicked the

natural world.

Sarah started to study birds and insects, observing how they were able to fly with such

grace and efficiency. She asked questions like: How do birds adjust their wings to different

wind conditions? How do insects use their wings to hover in place?

With this knowledge, Sarah began to design airplanes that incorporated biomimicry, or

the imitation of nature. She created wings that could adjust their shape based on wind

conditions, just like a bird's wings. She also designed planes that could hover in place, like a

dragonfly.

Sarah’s designs were a hit. Her company began to produce airplanes that were more

efficient and sustainable than ever before. They used less fuel and emitted fewer pollutants

into the air.

Sarah now travels around the world, giving talks on the benefits of biomimicry in

engineering. "Nature has been solving problems for millions of years," she says. "We can

learn a lot from the natural world if we just take the time to observe and ask questions."

4.What made Sarah Lee’s interest in aerospace engineering?

A.Her fascination with airplanes.

B.Her desire to study flight science.

C.Her childhood dream of becoming a pilot.

college life were dominated by the COVID-19 epidemic, so they stayed home to take

online classes or were quarantined in their dormitories. Some said they were surprised to

havegraduated without having eaten in every one of their school's canteens.

Those factors have left two marks on them:a sense of security due to a favorable

economic environment and anxiety caused by the pandemic and increased job competition.

Zhang Xiaojing, who was born in September 2000, graduated from Beijing Jiaotong

University with a bachelor's in internet journalism. Like her peers, she is skilled in the use of

a range of news software, self-media platforms and social media apps. The huge amount of

information flowing from the internet meant that even from her earliest days at university

she learned to think, be discerning and plan.

“My generation is exposed to too much information, so when making future life choices,

we need a stronger ability to choose from information. If you make a big life choice in a

confused way, the risks are bigger than before,” she said.

With a plan for her future career in mind, she began an internship in the summer of her

sophomore year. After trying five different companies and units including iQiyi, Tencent and

traditional media she decided to undertake postgraduate study.

School is a very special period when we can learn social behavior and even make

mistakes. We still have a lot of experience." she said, "there is still much to experience and

explore before settling on a specific career path."With this in mind, she valued taking the

time to gain more exposure and try different areas

Recent research reveals that the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) by

companies in the US has a disproportionate impact on women. According to a recent

analysis, approximately 79% of the jobs lost to AI were held by women. This difference can

be due to several factors.

Women are more likely to work in industries that are highly be influenced by

automation, such as retail, hospitality, and administrative support. These sectors often

involve repetitive tasks that can be easily automated by AI technologies. Consequently,

women employed in these industries face a higher risk of job displacement.

Gender biases in AI algorithms ( 运算法则 )can worsen the situation for women. AI

systems are trained on historical data, which may reflect existing gender biases in hiring and

promotion practices. This can result in biased decision-making during recruitment and

performance evaluations, putting women at a disadvantage in the workplace.

The lack of diversity in the development of AI technologies contributes to the gender

difference. The underrepresentation （代表名额不足）of women in the field of AI means

that their perspectives and experiences are not adequately considered during the design and

development process. As a result, AI systems may not fully understand or cater to the needs

of women, continuously leading to gender inequalities.

To address these challenges, it is crucial to prioritize diversity and inclusion in the

development and deployment of AI technologies. This involves increasing the representation

of women in AI-related fields and ensuring diverse perspectives are considered during the

design and testing phases. Additionally, companies should actively work towards

eliminating gender biases in AI algorithms and regularly assess their impact on different
