Arseny Mskvichev dreams f the day he can have a meaningful cnversatin with artificial intelligence. But the prblem is that Large Language Mdels (LLMs) are cmplete amnesiacs. “Even the mst advanced chatbts can nly prcess abut 16,000 wrds f text within a prmpt (提示框) when in cnversatin with a human user,” says the cgnitive and cmputer scientist. “They nly have s much cntext they can attend t. If yu’re ut f this cntext, they frget everything yu spke abut with them. And they can’t cnnect the infrmatin they receive during different ‘cnversatins’ with a human, r build a stryline.”
T help chatbts imprve their cmprehensin f the deep cmplexities (复杂性) f cntext, Mskvichev and his clleagues are teaching them t read nvels, the way we might learn t read them in high schl literature classes. The act f reading a nvel might seem like an entertaining (娱乐的) pastime, but it requires intelligence. We use memry and cmplex cmprehensin t fllw multiple characters thrugh plts, scene changes, and narrative. The average nvel averages arund 80,000 wrds. All thse wrds gradually build a stry we hld and examine in ur minds. But such skills are currently ut f reach t LLMs, which can prcess text but cannt be said t read the way we d.
Mskvichev and his grup built a new database frm 1,500 bks. They train LLMs in reading cmprehensin by having the AI read a bk in the database, analyzing lng stretches f text, then asking it t find a crrect scene summary frm a pl f ptins. As a training tl the database ffers mre than a millin questins fr LLMs t practice n.
Hwever, t accurately summarize a bk requires smene t read it, and design the training questins. “It’s very expensive t cllect a data set f this type,” Mskvichev says. It is here that the scientists shwed their pwer f creative imaginatin — they gt ChatGPT-3.5 t summarize shrt bk sectins. It is an example f a machine being used t train a mre pwerful machine.
While Mskvichev and his grup have fund the LLMs still make mistakes abut half f the time, they have bserved significant imprvement in trained LLM perfrmance versus untrained. “There’s still rm fr imprvement,” Mskvichev says.
39. The underlined wrd “amnesiacs” in Para 1 refers t the peple wh ______.
A. tend t frget thingsB. are pr at giving speech
C. stick t ne’s wn pininD. have truble analyzing texts
40. What can we infer frm Paragraph 2?
A. What is related t humans and AI needs deep cmprehensin.
B. What matters t AI may be f the same imprtance fr humans.
C. What humans d t relax themselves can be a big truble fr AI.
D. What humans and AI share may be sme seemingly simple skills.
41. Fr Mskvichev and his grup, what is the challenge f building training tls fr chatbts?
A. Raising narrative ability.B. Seeking suitable nvels.
C. Designing training tls.D. Finding human resurces.
42. What is Mskvichev’s attitude tward LLMs’ future?

As a “third culture kid”, I live a particularly interesting life grwing up abrad in a culture different t that f my parents. My father is frm the UK and wrking in the engineering industry means that he needs t wrk in varius cuntries arund the wrld. My mther is French, and I was brn in Thailand, where I lived until I finished high schl. I’m currently studying at the University f Bath in the UK. Fr me, “where are yu frm?” is the questin that usually requires an in-depth explanatin f my life stry.
Thse wh listen t smene’s accent in rder t figure ut where they’re frm will definitely struggle after meeting a third culture kid. Given that yu’ve lived in a few cuntries, yu prbably speak at least tw languages fluently and end up mixing them tgether withut nticing. Hwever, that des nt necessarily mean yu speak much f the language f the cuntries yu’ve lived in. Yu will, f curse, knw a few greetings and sme directins t give taxi drivers, but yu’ve grwn accustmed t living in a cuntry where yu can’t understand everything that’s being said arund yu.
Yu get used t peple leaving when attending an internatinal schl where gdbyes are way t frequent. Once yu leave fr university, yu’re mving cuntries instead f cities, away frm childhd friends. It’s fair t say that third culture kids really knw the meaning f friendship, after all, friendship that survives distance means friends fr life, right?
After living abrad and being expsed t (接触) the diversity f cultures, peple and histry, it is nearly impssible fr third culture kids nt t cntinue travelling. Whether yu chse t take a gap year, make the mst f hlidays r wrk, study r vlunteer abrad—any pprtunity t explre a new place is an pprtunity nt t be missed. Adventure and travelling are what we always lng fr.

49. Why d third culture kids really knw the meaning f friendship?
