19、ether to share or to stay private.Graduate students and postdoes,who often are working on their lab head's grant may have no choice if their supervisor or another senior opposes sharing. G some fear that the potential impact of sharing is too high, especially at the early stages of a career.&quo
20、t; Everybody has a scary story about someone getting scooped(被抢先),” says new York university astronomer david hogg. those fears may be a factor in a lingering hesitation to share data even when publishing in journals that mandate it. H researchers at small labs or at institutions focused on teaching
21、 arguably have the most to lose when sharing hard-won data. ""with my institution and teaching load, i don't have postdocs and grad students", says terry mcglynn, a tropical biologist at california state university,Dominguez hills. "the stakes are higher to share data because

27、to publish each step of the research life cycle, not just the final paper. In so doing, they can potentially get three citations- one each for the data and software.in addition to the paper itself. and although some say that citations for software or data have little currency in academia,they can ha

34、ce- especially in a larger phere, outside the communities you know- is a net win." 36. astronomer david hogg doesn't think scooping is as serious a problem as generally thought. 37. some researchers are hesitant to make their data public for fear that others might publish something similar
35、before them 38. some psychology joumals have offered incentives to encourage authors to share their data. 39. there is a growing demand in the science community that research data be open to the public.40. sharing data offers early-career researchers the chance to build a certain level of reputation
36、 41. data sharing enables scientists to publish each step of their research work, thus leading to more citations 42. scientists hold different opinions about the extent and timing of data sharing 43. potential problems related to data sharing should be made known to and discussed by all participants
37、 at the beginning of a joint research project 44. sharing data and handling data-related issues can be time-consuming 45. junior researehers may have no say when it comes to sharing data. Section c Directions: there are 2 passages in this section. each passage is followed by some questions or unfini
38、shed statements for each of them there are four choices marked a, b, c)and D) You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage one Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage. In the beginning of the mov
39、ie, robot, a robot has to decide whom to save after two cars plunge into the water-del spooner or a child. even though spooner screams"save her save her! "the robot rescues him because it calculates that he has a 45 percent chance of survival compared to sarah's 11 percent. the robot&#
40、39;s decision and its calculated approach raise an important question: would humans make the same choice? and which choice would we want our robotic counterparts to make? Isaac asimov evaded the whole notion of morality in devising his three laws of robotics, which hold that 1. robots cannot harm hu
41、mans or allow humans to come to harm; 2. robots must obey humans, except where the order would conflict with law i; and 3. robots must act in self-preservation, unless doing so conflicts with laws i or 2. these laws are programmed into asimov's robots-they don' t have to think, judge, or val
42、ue. they don't have to like humans or believe that wrong or bad. they simply don't do it. The robot who rescues spooner s life in / robot follows asimov's zeroth law: robots cannot harm humanity(as opposed to individual humansor allow humanity to come to harm-an expansion of the first la
43、w that allows robots to determine what's in the greater good. under the first law,a robot could not harm a dangerous gunman, but under the zeroth law, a robot could kill the gunman to save others. Whether it's possible to program a robot with safeguards such as asimov's laws is debatable
44、 a word such as"harm"is vague (what about emotional harm is replacing a human employ harm), and abstract concepts present coding problems. the robots in asimov's fiction expose complications and loopholes in the three laws, and even when the laws work, robots still have to assess situa
45、tion. Assessing situations can be complicated. a robot has to identify the players, conditions, and possibe outcomes for various scenarios,Its doubtful that a computer program can do that-aleast, not without some undesirable results. a roboticist at the bristol robotics laboratory programmed a robot

47、ity without it, how can a robot decide whom to save or what's best for humanity, especially if it can't calculate survival odds? 46. what question does the example in the movie raise? a) whether robots can reach better decisions b) whether robots follow asimov's zero" d) how robots should be programmed. 47. what does the author think of asimovs three laws of robotics? a) they are apparently divorced from reality. b)they did not follow the coding system of robotics. c)they laid a solid foundation for robotics. d) they did not take moral issu
