主题语境:人与自我　体裁:记叙文

Robert Frost(1874—1963) was the statesman of American letters in the twentieth century,a rare national poet who was read and respected by both university professors and everyday citizens.In his life,Frost won four Pulitzer Prizes for his works— more than any other poet in American history.His most famous poems include TheRoadNotTaken,FireandIce and StoppingbyWoodsonaSnowyEvening.Though he is widely read,Frost is also one of the most misunderstood writers in the United States for the complexity of his poems.

Though born in California,Frost was brought up in New England,where he is inseparably linked.After dropping out of Dartmouth College to seek his literary dream,he remained upset for years,producing collections of works but failing to get enough of them published to make his efforts financially worthwhile.Finally,Frost left the United States in 1912 to see whether his works might be better received in London.It was,and in 1913 his first full collection was published in Great Britain.Fellow American poet Amy Lowell adored Frost’s work and brought it back to the United States,publicizing it insistently.Soon afterwards Frost’s collections became bestsellers,and he became a famous figure.

From then on,Frost was on his way to the lifelong respect and recognition for his achievements in poetry.In 1961,he was invited to read a poem for the presidential inauguration (总统就职典礼) of John F.Kennedy.He recited his poem,TheGiftOutright,from memory at the ceremony.This was perhaps his last poetry reading in front of a wide national audience before his death in 1963.More importantly,Frost became the first poet to read a poem at a presidential inauguration.

Ⅵ.概要写作

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

YourRobotTeacheroftheFuture

Will your job be done by a robot in the future?Bank of England economists predict that almost half of all UK jobs are under threat of automation.Those most at risk involve repetitive manual labour,such as factory positions.But could even the venerable profession of teaching soon have to compete against powerful electronic educators?

At first glance,teaching might seem to be unaffected to replacement by robots.Teachers use a range of soft skills that machines find hard to replicate.They judge pupils’ needs and adapt feedback accordingly.They adapt materials to make them more attractive and effective.And they provide pastoral care:looking out for students who lag behind or disrupt the class.

Nonetheless,some believe the future of education will be technological.In an interview with BusinessInsider magazine,futurist Thomas Frey predicts that “by 2030 the largest company on the Internet is going to be an education-based company that we haven’t heard of yet.”

He thinks that “bots”—online robot teachers—will make education so efficient that students will be able to compress an entire undergraduate degree into six months of learning.A bot learns what your “interests” and “reference points” are,and it “figures out” how to teach you in a faster and faster way over time,according to Frey.

Whether or not such incredible speeds will be reached,over the last decade there has been a huge increase in online learning platforms.Companies such as Udemy and Khan Academy produce courses that allow millions to learn at home for free at their own pace.But there are limitations.Without the face-to-face stimulation of a classroom environment,the overwhelming majority of students fail to complete online courses.How to sustain motivation to learn is one more skill that online teachers will need to master.

Indeed,Frey admits there is some way to go:“Nobody has quite cracked the code for the future of education.”What do teachers themselves think about this?Professor Donald Clark from Derby University in the UK thinks that we should welcome change,even though people will lose their jobs.

“Artificial intelligence will destroy jobs—so why not use it for a social good such as learning?”he asked.

参考范文

The article introduces the possibility of a robot teacher in the future.(要点1)Since robots may replace humans in factories,it is possible that teaching will be done by robots.(要点2)Teachers use soft skills such as feedback and personal care at classrooms.However,online robot teachers will know a learner’s weakness and strengths,so they provide efficient teaching.(要点3)Companies like Udemy and Khan Academy provide free courses online but students lack motivation to finish their lessons.Anyway,AI is welcomed to do good to learning.(要点4)
