Jack Prelutsky is an American poet. He is known for his humorous and fantastic poetry for children, which has
earned him numerous awards.
Jack Prelutsky was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1940. As a child, he did not enjoy poetry , finding it boring
and pointless. Instead, Prelutsky expressed his artistry through music, taking voice and piano lessons. While Prelutsky
claims he got into poetry almost by accident, he also states that he was always a poet. It just took him some time to
realize his love for poetry.
Prelutsky explored quite a few options before he found his niche in poetry. He was a folk singer and guitar
teacher in Greenwich Village in his late teens and early twenties. Prelutsky also held a variety of odd jobs. He worked
as a furniture mover, piano mover, taxicab driver, coal shoveler, fruit picker, truck driver and photographer, among
other jobs.
At the age of 23, Prelutsky decided to try illustrating. Just before presenting his illustrations to a children’s book
editor, he added a few lines of poetry to the pictures. The editor told him that the illustrations were not publishable but
the poems showed the talent. Over the next months and years, Prelutsky worked with the editor to create a collection
of animal poems inspired by his love of the Bronx Zoo. His first book, entitled A Gopher in the Garden and Other
Animal Poems, was published in 1967.
In addition to writing, Prelutsky has edited various poetry collections and translated poetry from German and
Swedish into English. He currently resides in Seattle, where he writes and performs his work. Prelutsky is considered
one of the most popular children’s poets. His work pioneered a new era of children’s poetry. In 2006, the Poetry
Foundation named Jack Prelutsky the first Children’s Poet Laureate, a position designed to promote poetry for
children and raise awareness of the power and relevance of poetry for young people.

A recent research suggests that artificial intelligence (AI) could hold the potential for predicting sudden cardiac
(心脏的) death and assessing an individual’s risk to potentially prevent future deaths. This development may mark a
novel step towards prevention and global health strategies.
Professor Xavier Jouven, lead author of the study, said, “Sudden cardiac death, a public health burden, represents
10% to 20% of overall deaths. Predicting it is difficult, and the usual approaches fail to identify high-risk people,
particularly at an individual level. We proposed a new approach.”
The scientific team employed AI to analyze medical data obtained from registries and databases in Paris, France
and Seattle. They examined records of 25,000 individuals who had experienced sudden cardiac arrest and compared
them with data from 70,000 people from the general population. The matching process involved age, sex and
residential area. Using AI, the scientists created about 25,000 personalized health models to evaluate the data and
identify individuals at high risk of sudden cardiac death. Additionally, they established a risk file for each participant
in the study.
The AI analysis was able to identify people who had more than 90% of risk dying suddenly, and it can predict
about more than one-fourth of all cases of sudden cardiac death. “We have been working for almost 30 years in the
field of sudden cardiac death prediction. However, we did not expect to reach such a high level of accuracy,” said
Jouven, who is the founder of the Paris Sudden Death Expertise Center.
Jouven added. “While doctors have efficient treatments, the use of AI is necessary to detect in a given subject a
succession of medical information registered over the years. We hope that with a personalized list of risk factors,
patients will be able to work with their clinicians to reduce those risk factors and ultimately decrease the potential for
sudden cardiac death.”
8. What can be known about sudden cardiac death?
A. It is hard to predict and prevent.
B. Researchers still can do nothing about it.
C. It accounts for the highest percentage of all deaths.
D. Old approaches can effectively identify its high-risk people.
9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning the research?
A. Its result. B. Its process. C. Its purpose. D. Its participants.
10. How does Jouven feel about the Al analysis?
A. Worried. B. Amazed. C. Annoyed. D. Disappointed.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Biggest AI Development in 2024 B. Using AI to Stop Future Cardiac Attack
C. Improved Prediction of Death in Patients D. Predicting Sudden Cardiac Death Using Al

Engineers at the University of Waterloo have discovered a new way to program robots to help people with
dementia (痴呆) locate medicine, glasses, phones and other objects they need but have lost.
While the initial focus is assisting a specific group of people, the technology could someday be used by anyone
who has searched high and low for something they’ve misplaced.
“The long-term impact of this is really exciting.” said Dr. Ali Ayub, a post-doctoral fellow in electrical and
