Princeton University Art Event
Program Information for Gaucho: A New Musical
March 8-10, 2024, in Wallace Theater
Presented by the Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Theater & Music Theater.
Gaucho: A New Musical
Book, music and lyries (歌词) by Princeton University seniors Aaron Ventresca and Emmu
Ventresca; directed by lecturer Nicuo Krell with music direction by guest artist Gia Gan.
Run Time
Approximately 2 hours(including a 10-minute intermission).
Setting
In this new musical set in nineteenth-century Argentina, the gaucho (高乔人) community of
San Antonio de Areco, a town in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, faces growing threats to its
traditional way of life from large landowners’ newest technology-barbed (带刺的) wire fence. A
young gaucho named Mateo struggles to break free from his family’s dying way of life to
become a writer. Then with some help, Mateo escapes to Buenos Aires. There, he meets Sofia,
who shakes his narrow-minded view of the world. As modernity takes shape, Mateo is torn
between choices: his family or the one he could create, his culture or the movements of the
world.

Professor Lum seems to be under the spell of ChatGPT, but let’s not get carried away with
the AI chatbot craze. While it does have some benefits, his arguments are like a leaky boat in a
stormy sea — full of holes.
According to Professor Lum, ChatGPT offers students a wealth of information. Sure, it’s
like having a walking encyclopedia, but learning is not about copying an answer. It’s about the
journey of discovery. ChatGPT, armed with its vast database, denies students the opportunity to
explore and learn through their own efforts. It’s like awarding a participation medal for a race
that hasn’t even begun!
He also claims that ChatGPT improves communication skills. Seriously? Chatting with an
AI is not the same as having a real conversation. How can we expect students to handle the
complexities of the real world if all they know is how to talk to a chatbot? Let’s not turn them
into socially awkward bots themselves.
Oh, and let’s not forget about critical thinking. Professor Lum thinks ChatGPT challenges
students to think critically. But come on, folks! It’s merely a machine! It’s not going to teach
them how to question assumptions, analyze evidence, or come up with innovative solutions. We
need human interaction and lively debates for that.
Lastly, Professor Lum believes ChatGPT can provide support and guidance. Again, seriously?
Are we going to replace human emotions with lines of code (代码)? ChatGPT might offer some
comforting words, but it can’t replace the warmth and understanding that can only be found in

human interaction. Let us not abandon our students, leaving them to feel more alone and
disconnected than ever before.
Professor Lum’s opinion regarding ChatGPT warns us against too much reliance on
technology. Rather than prioritizing ChatGPT, the focus should be on developing critical
thinking, promoting genuine human interaction, and emphasizing the core aspects of education.
24. What is compared to a participation medal in Paragraph 2?
A. A walking encyclopedia. B. A journey to explore.
C. A vast database. D. An answer.
25. What can be inferred about ChatGPT from Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 5?
A. It is not good at socializing. B. It is a skilled critical thinker.
C. It offers nothing helpful to humans. D. It forms a warm bond with humans.
26. What is the author’s attitude towards ChatGPT?
A. Totally negative. B. Fully supportive.
C. Highly skeptical. D. Quite indifferent.
27. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To criticize a viewpoint. B. To question an authority.
C. To clarify two arguments. D. To compare two chatbots.

Whether playing tricks or holding funerals in the wild, crows have surprised the public with
their unexpected capabilities. But their “intelligence” knows no bounds. A new study published
in Current Biology revealed for the first time that crows can use statistical logic to solve
problems.
Crows have a large brain for their size and a particularly noticeable forebrain, associated
with statistical and analytical reasoning in humans. “In our lab, crows have shown complicated
numerical competence and careful consideration during decision-making,” said Dr. Melissa
Johnston, a fellow at the University of Tübingen. In her recent work, Johnston and her team
pushed these abilities to a new extreme, testing statistical reasoning.
In the experiment, two crows were first trained to peck ( 啄) at various images on
touchscreens to earn food treats; and gradually they had to choose between two of these images,
each corresponding to a different reward probability. “Crows were tasked with learning rather
abstract quantities and then applying that combination of information in a reward maximizing
way,” Johnston detailed. Over 10 days of training and 5,000 trials, the two crows managed to
pick the higher probability of reward, showing their ability to use statistical inference. To
researchers’ much surprise, even after a month without training, the crows still perform well
