When I started skating at 6 years ld, I liked Drthy Hamill s much that I had a Drthy dll and wuld put it n the edge f the rink(溜冰场) t watch me skate n the ice. There was smething meaningful t me
abut having the dll next t me as I wuld jump, fall and pick myself back up again. It was there inspiring me t never give up.

Six-year-ld me never wuld have imagined I'd be where I am tday. But I made it because Iwas able t discver my dreams as a yung girl. My Drthy dll had the pwer — it was nt just a piece f decratin n the ice rink; it inspired me t dream big and wrk hard.

Parents wh frce their children t have pian lessns are keeping them away frm classical music, Lang Lang, a wrld-leading pianist, has suggested. The Chinese musician stresses that children wh are frced int pian lessns can end up shunning music.

An artificial intelligence(人工智能) system has shwn it can save lives by warning dctrs t check n patients whse heart test results shw a high risk f dying. In a test with almst 16,000patients, the AI helped reduce the ttal deaths by 31% amng peple wh were at high risk.
“This is actually quite amazing,”says Eric Tpl at the Scripps Research Translatinal Institute in Califrnia.“It is quite uncmmn fr any drug t result in a 31% reductin in the number f deaths, and then even mre unusual fr a nn-drug—this is just mnitring peple withAI.”
Chin Lin at Texas Medical Center and his clleagues trained their AI n mre than 450,000 electrcardigram(ECG) (心电图) tests, which measure the heart’s electrical activity, alng with the survival data f the ECG subjects.The AI learned t prduce a percentile (百分位) scre representing each patient’s risk f death, whse scre in the 95th percentile r higher wuld be cnsidered high risk.
The researchers then tested the AI warning system with 39 dctrs at tw different hspitals.As nurses transmitted each new patient’s ECG tests t a cmputer server, the AI system wuld analyse the results and warn dctrs if it identified smene as being high risk. In additin t reducing the risk f death frm all causes, the AI system als reduced the death rate frm heart issues in high-risk patients by mre than 90%.
Lin and his clleagues say the AI warnings may help fcus attentin n the highest risk grup.During the research, dctrs usually fllwed up warnings with mre tests and treatment. The system is already being used acrss 14 hspitals in Texas.“This can be put int effect in every hspital arund the wrld,” says Tpl.“It shuld be the standard f care when yu see such a significant benefit.”
12．What made the AI system stand ut in the test?
A. Its speed in analyzing ECG tests.
B. Its functin f testing heart diseases.
C. Its applicatin in hspitals natinwide.
D. Its ability t reduce deaths withut drugs.

When I started skating at 6 years ld, I liked Drthy Hamill s much that I had a Drthy dll and wuld put it n the edge f the rink(溜冰场) t watch me skate n the ice. There was smething meaningful t me
abut having the dll next t me as I wuld jump, fall and pick myself back up again. It was there inspiring me t never give up.
Furteen years later, I fllwed Drthy's path t becme the first American wman figure skater (花样滑冰运动员) t win Olympic gld since she did it in 1976. And nw, three decades later, Barbie (芭比娃娃) is hnring me with my wn dll as the newest additin t its InspiringWmen Series.
Six-year-ld me never wuld have imagined I'd be where I am tday. But I made it because Iwas able t discver my dreams as a yung girl. My Drthy dll had the pwer — it was nt just a piece f decratin n the ice rink; it inspired me t dream big and wrk hard.
When I achieved my dream, I felt like giving children chances t find their dreams and pursue them. Thrugh wrking with children and raising my wn girls, I quickly realized a child’s success in life startswith a schl educatin and an interest in reading. A bk is mre than just a bk, just like what the Dr-thy dll meant t me. That's where dreams are brn. When children pen up a bk, they pen up their wrld.
S in 1996, I established Always Dream, a nnprfit rganizatin that aims t imprve children's reading by prviding access t bks and encuraging families t read tgether.

Parents wh frce their children t have pian lessns are keeping them away frm classical music, Lang Lang, a wrld-leading pianist, has suggested. The Chinese musician stresses that children wh are frced int pian lessns can end up shunning music.

An artificial intelligence(人工智能) system has shwn it can save lives by warning dctrs t check n patients whse heart test results shw a high risk f dying. In a test with almst 16,000patients, the AI helped reduce the ttal deaths by 31% amng peple wh were at high risk.
“This is actually quite amazing,”says Eric Tpl at the Scripps Research Translatinal Institute in Califrnia.“It is quite uncmmn fr any drug t result in a 31% reductin in the number f deaths, and then even mre unusual fr a nn-drug—this is just mnitring peple withAI.”
Chin Lin at Texas Medical Center and his clleagues trained their AI n mre than 450,000 electrcardigram(ECG) (心电图) tests, which measure the heart’s electrical activity, alng with the survival data f the ECG subjects.The AI learned t prduce a percentile (百分位) scre representing each patient’s risk f death, whse scre in the 95th percentile r higher wuld be cnsidered high risk.
The researchers then tested the AI warning system with 39 dctrs at tw different hspitals.As nurses transmitted each new patient’s ECG tests t a cmputer server, the AI system wuld analyse the results and warn dctrs if it identified smene as being high risk. In additin t reducing the risk f death frm all causes, the AI system als reduced the death rate frm heart issues in high-risk patients by mre than 90%.
Lin and his clleagues say the AI warnings may help fcus attentin n the highest risk grup.During the research, dctrs usually fllwed up warnings with mre tests and treatment. The system is already being used acrss 14 hspitals in Texas.“This can be put int effect in every hspital arund the wrld,” says Tpl.“It shuld be the standard f care when yu see such a significant benefit.”
12．What made the AI system stand ut in the test?
A. Its speed in analyzing ECG tests.

C. Its applicatin in hspitals natinwide.
D. Its ability t reduce deaths withut drugs.
