But the boy, who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Africa in 2017. A church helped him enter the primary school, P. S. 116. Here the gifted boy was first introduced to chess by a part-time teacher Makofsky, owner of a chess club. Interested in the game, the seven-year-old asked his mother to allow him to join the club. Not able to afford the chess classes, she emailed Makofsky. To her surprise and joy, Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free.Though the chess club helps, it's largely believed that Tani's success lies in hard work. The boy practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board. Every Saturday, Tani goes to a free 3-hour class to improve his game skills.Not surprisingly, Tani's story, first reported by The New York Times, has brought him great support from the public. Soon after the young boy won the New York Championship, Makofsky began a GoFundMe activity for Tani and his family so that he could continue his chess journey. It raised 200,000 in just ten days, far more than they expected. And the money keeps coming. But the family donates(捐赠)most of the money to the church and to those poor family!Tani has also received offers from three famous private schools in New York.

Taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管)age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as "lazy". Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep. They only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas an expert in sleep. He says, "Sleep is like a credit card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should t sleep to 'pay back' the hours on your 'sleep credit card'."For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said. "Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more."(1)According to the writer, what is the easiest and cheapest way to improve health?A.To eat healthy food every day.B.To take exercise as much as possible.C.To get medical help whenever necessary.D.To sleep eight hours or more every night.(2)What does "sleep-deprived" mean in Paragraph 2?A.Having a good sleep. B.Excited about sleep. C.Having less sleep. D.Interested in sleep.(3)According to Dr. James Maas, what is sleep like?A.n hour. B.A report. C.A credit card. D.A piece of paper.(4)What is the best title of the passage?A.The Value of Sleep B.The Value of Study C.The Ways of Eating Less D.The Ways of Making MoneyArtificial intelligence (AI)(人工智能)is the ability of a computer program or a machine. The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers "smart". John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with the name "artificial intelligence" over 60 years ago. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as people do.An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs. They can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地). At present, Al can successfully understanding human speech, recognizie(识别)human faces, operate self-driving cars and compete in some game systems like playing Chess. However, some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. A famous British scientist also was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future. We need not only bright students, but also common students. As for common students, if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.Scientists hope to create creative and emotional(有感情的)AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field.(1)What can we know from Paragraph 1?A.all problems can be solved by computers.B.machines with AI can think and learn.C.AI has been around for only 60 years.D.AI works in the same way as people.(2)According to the passage, what can't AI do at present?A.Understand human speech.B.Operate self-driving cars.C.ompete in some game systems.D.Understand human feelings.(3)What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.chess. B.a scientist. C.the danger. D.AI.(4)According to the passage, what should they learn well if students want to become successful AI designers?A.math and art.B.art and technology.C.math and computer science.D.art and computer science..
