Hwever, children aged between seven and nine were mre likely t give the same respnses as the rbts, even if they were bviusly incrrect. The study asks peple t lk at a screen shwing fur lines and say which tw match in length. When alne, peple almst never make a mistake but when ding the experiment with thers, they tend t fllw what thers are saying.
When children were alne in the rm in this research, they scred 87% n the test, but when the rbts jin in their scre drps t 75%. And f the wrng answers, 74% matched thse f the rbt. The research was led by frmer Plymuth researcher Anna Vllmer and Prfessr in Rbtics Tny Belpaeme, frm the University f Plymuth and Ghent University.
Prfessr Belpaeme said, “Peple ften fllw the pinins f thers and we’ve knwn fr a lng time that it is hard t resist taking ver views and pinins f peple arund us. But as rbts will sn be fund in the hme and the wrkplace, we were wndering if peple wuld fllw rbts. What ur results shw is that adults d nt fllw what the rbts are saying.

D 　　China has lng been tipped t be the next Silicn Valley, but nw the finances and supprt are in place t make it happen.
There is a grwing cnsensus (共识) that while Silicn Valley is nt abut t disappear anytime sn, its next biggest rival is already n the verge f bursting nt the internatinal scene — nt in the US, nr in the EU, but in Asia. Mre specifically, China.   This is nt just an bservatin based n the rise f cmpanies like Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent. It is grunded in a mre widespread mve t fund start-ups in Asia t the pint where mre mney is being invested there than in Eurpe. Just five years ag, Eurpe and Asia are neck and neck in terms f investment.
In 2013, Eurpe made slightly mre deals, 1550 cmpared t Asia’s 1071, but the ttal value f investment was $7bn. Just five years later, Asia is nw fur times the size f Eurpe with twice as many deals carried ut. Between 2013 t 2018, the number f deals in Asia increased nearly fivefld, and their value leapt t $81bn, cmpared t the $21bn raised in Eurpe. The Asian figure als shws that the cntinent is clsing the gap n the US which saw $105bn wrth f deals.
One f the main reasns that makes the cuntry s attractive is nt just the huge grwth in investment and high educatin standards, but als lcal and natinal gvernmental supprt benefiting tech cmpanies.
In fact, ne f the cnclusins f a recent Frtune tech cnference was that China’s tech cmpanies will sn be beating American cmpanies n their hme turf. One f the reasns is that investrs believe US immigratin plicy is making it mre difficult fr the best talent arund the wrld t find wrk there. Plus, Chinese cmpanies are nw able t start paying salaries that can keep pace with thse n ffer in Silicn Valley.
Hence, when Ian Rger, Chief Digital Official at luxury grup LVMH was asked where he thught the next Facebk r Ggle wuld cme frm, he suggested it wuld be a clse call between Silicn Valley and China. The latter had the investment that is needed as well as a hard wrk culture f a six-day week. It als has a superb educatin system and a huge ppulatin. As Silicn Valley appears t be heating up a little t hard fr sme peple, China wuld appear t be warming up at just the right pace. 【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是资金、高教育水平和支持使中国成为下一个硅谷成为可能。

【解析】选D。词义猜测题。根据第三段中This is nt just an bservatin based n the rise f cmpanies like Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent. It is grunded in a mre widespread mve t fund start-ups in Asia t the pint where mre mney is being invested there than in Eurpe. “这不仅仅是基于阿里巴巴、百度和腾讯等公司的崛起。它的基础是, 为亚洲初创企业提供资金的做法更为普遍, 投资于亚洲的资金已经超过了欧洲。”可知, “它的第二大竞争对手已经在国际舞台上崭露头角——不是在美国, 也不是在欧盟, 而是在亚洲。更具体地说, 中国。”所以画线词的意思是“正要……的时候”。
13. Which f the fllwing is NOT a reasn why China attracts freign investment in tech cmpanies?A. High educatin standards. B. Huge grwth in investment. C. Supprt frm the gvernment. D. Higher salaries than thse in Silicn Valley.
【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第六段One f the main reasns that makes the cuntry s attractive is nt just the huge grwth in investment and high educatin standards, but als lcal and natinal gvernmental supprt benefiting tech cmpanies. “中国如此具有吸引力的主要原因之一, 不仅是投资的巨大增长和高教育标准, 还有地方和国家政府对科技公司的支持。”可知, 比硅谷更高的薪水并不是中国吸引外国投资科技公司的原因。
14. It can’t be inferred frm the passage that ______.  A. the US immigratin plicy is strict but talent-friendlyB. Ian Rger believes the next Ggle might cme frm ChinaC. emplyees f Baidu might be accustmed t verwrkD. Chinese tech cmpanies can prvide highly cmpetitive salaries nw. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第七段中One f the reasns is that investrs believe US immigratin plicy is making it mre difficult fr the best talent arund the wrld t find wrk there. “原因之一是, 投资者认为, 美国的移民政策加大了全球最优秀人才在美国找到工作的难度。”可知, 美国的移民政策是严格的, 但对人才是友好的这一推断错误。
15. What is the passage mainly abut?A. The ttal value f investment in Asia is fur times that in Eurpe. B. Finances, high educatin standards and supprt make it pssible fr China t becme the next Silicn Valley. C. Asia attracts wrldwide best talents t tech cmpanies. D.
