Aron Ralston was a pretty normal guy, but he always had an extremely adventurous desire
to travel and see the world. During his childhood, his family moved to Denver, Colorado, a
place offering many opportunities to climb mountains, explore, and eventually become the
adventurer he’d always wanted to be. Back in 2003, Ralston was climbing in the remote,
mountainous area of Southwestern Utah, when the unthinkable happened: Aron got stuck in a
crevice (裂缝 ) in the rocks and pinned by a big stone that weighed over 360 kilograms. The
weight of the rock crushed his arm, and he was pinned by it. Aron took photos of his bad
situation (which was going to get a lot worse), hoping rescue teams ( 救 援 队 ) would know
where he was and came to remove the rock so that he could get out and home safe.
But rescuers never came. Aron waited for them for days till he lost his hope. He knew he
had to do something. He was 18 meters above the floor of the valley where he was pinned in,
and he had a pocketknife. He made what must have been one of the most difficult decisions of
his life: to cut his own arm in order to survive. Aron cut the lower part of his arm off, having to
wrench (扭动) his forearm against the big stone to break the bones, and then got himself down
to the bottom of the valley, where he would begin to walk and search for help. Luckily, help
arrived in the form of a helicopter ( 直升机) that spotted him, covered in blood. Aron had tied
off the wound to keep himself from bleeding to death pretty successfully and would eventually
make it out alive.
Ralston went on to become an inspiring speaker and continued to travel and climb
mountains—he didn’t let an incident that forced him to cut his own arm off, stop him from
doing what he really loved.
24. What can be inferred about Aron’s getting stuck?
A. It was unavoidable. B. It resulted from his being lost.
C. It was unexpected. D. It was caused by a moving stone.
25. Why did Aron take photos of his bad situation?
A. To send them to rescuers for help. B. To keep a record of his adventure.
C. To remind his friends of the danger. D. To tell the doctors about his wound.
26. What did he do to survive when no rescue was expected come?
A. He waited for the rescue to come.
B. He cut the stone using his pocketknife.
C. He moved off the stone using all his might.
D. He cut his lower part of his arm and broke the bones.
27. What helped Aron Ralston survive?
A. His cruelty and anger. B. His effort and bravery.
C. His talent and creativity. D. His calmness and determination.
C
In South Korea, students should pay for everything they learn in classes from K-pop
auditions to real estate deals. Now, top Korean firms are introducing artificial intelligence in
hiring and job seekers want to learn how to defeat the robots to get a job.
Many major South Korean companies like SK Innovation and Hyundai use AI in hiring,
which generates classes for AI hiring booming fast. Career advisor Park Seong-jung is now
offering a three-hour training course in handling recruitment, screening by computers, not
people.
Preparing for such tests doesn’t necessarily involve simply memorizing answers. “Don’t
force a smile with your lips,” Park Seong-jung told students looking for work in a recent
session, one of many in which he said he has conducted for hundreds of people. “Smile with
your eyes.”
One AI video system reviewed by Reuters asks candidates to introduce themselves, during
which it spots and counts facial expressions including “fear” and “joy” and analyses word
choices. It then asks questions that can be tough: “You are on a business trip with your boss and
you spot him using the company credit card to buy himself a gift. What will you say?”
Kim Seok-wu, a 22-year-old senior at a top university, recently failed to get beyond an AI
interview for a management position at a retail company. “I think I will feel hopeless if all
companies go AI for hiring,” Kim said. “The AI interview is too new, so job hunters don’t know
what to prepare for and any preparations seem meaningless since AI will read our faces if we
make something up.”
28. Why do students in South Korea pay to study courses like AI hiring?
A. They want to be more competitive when faced with AI interview.
B. Big companies are in favor of it and want them to beat the androids.
C. They want to learn some AI knowledge and learn how to smile before AI.
D. AI can analyze their facial expressions and help to prepare for the interviews.
29. How does AI interview the job applicants according to the test?
A. By making a self introduction and answering some questions.
B. By asking interviewees how to deal with the boss’s asking for a gift.
C. By looking at what words the interviewees use when answering difficult questions.
