The script

Philosopher John Searle has challenged the validity of the Turing Test because it’s premised on behavior rather than on thought. To prove his argument, he’s suggested a paradox, which he refers to as the Chinese Room. If a monolingual English-speaking person receives questions on a computer terminal from a Chinese person in another room, naturally the English-speaking person won’t understand the questions. However, if there’s a large reference that can be accessed, and if the reference is detailed and comprehensible, then the English speaker could, conceivably, break the code. For example, if a sequence of Chinese characters is received, the reference could indicate which sequence of Chinese characters would be expected in response. In other words, the behavior would be correct, although the English speaker wouldn’t be thinking at a level that included meaning. The person would be manipulating symbols without understanding them, or, as Searle suggests, the person would be acting intelligent without being intelligent, which is exactly what a computer could be programmed to do.
Therefore, at least theoretically, a computer could be designed with complex input
that would allow it to provide adequate behavioral output without being aware of
what it’s doing. If so, then it could pass the Turing Test. But the test itself would be meaningless because it doesn’t really answer the most basic question about artificial intelligence, which is, can the computer think?

Cost, price, worth, value, charge, fare. В чём разница?


Price - цена, за которую что-либо продаётся или покупается. 
They didn't buy the boat because the price was too high. — Они не купили лодку, так как цена была слишком высокая. 

Также price - это цена, которую кто-то платит за что-то. 
The price of their success was really high. — Цена их успеха была действительно высока. 

В некоторых случаях существительное cost имеет такое же значение как price, например, когда мы говорим о стоимости вообще: 
The cost (price) of the picture was one hundred dollars. — Цена картины была сто долларов. 

Чаще cost означает количество потраченных денег для производства товара. В таком случае cost нельзя заменить на price
We can't be sure of the total cost yet. — Мы не можем быть уверены в конечной стоимости. 

Слово cost может быть также как price использовано в переносном значении: 
The cost of victory in the war was very high. — Цена победы в войне была очень высока. 

Cost также может выступать в роли глагола “стоить”. 
How much does it cost? — Сколько это стоит? 

Value - также обозначает стоимость чего-либо или цену, за которую можно что-то продать. Но при этом больше имеется ввиду не материальная стоимость, а ценность или польза предмета: 
I'd like to determine the value of this painting. — Я хотел бы определить стоимость этой картины. 

Слово Worth часто используется в связке с глаголом to beTo be worth означает "иметь определенную стоимость", при этом речь не всегда идет о материальной цене чего-либо. 
It's not worth the risk. — Это не стоит риска. 
This movie is worth seeing. — Этот фильм стоит посмотреть. 

Глагол charge используется довольно часто, особенно когда речь идет о договорных ценах и услугах - “назначать цену, просить, требовать (цену)”: 
The doctor charged me too much for my visit. — Доктор запросил слишком много за посещение. 

Также это слово используется в значении “расходы, издержки”. 
The charges amounted to one million dollars. — Расходы составили один миллион долларов. 

Fare - стоимость проезда или провоза багажа, тариф, плата за проезд: 
What's the fare to Liverpool? — Какая стоимость проезда до Ливерпуля?




If everything is clear complete the task:

Reading comprehension


Passage One
Governments cost money – huge sums of money. Our federal government alone spends close to $250 billion each year. State and local governments spend many more billions. About 35 cents out of each dollar earned by all American workers and business firms goes as taxes to help pay costs of governments. From these figures you may get some idea of the enormous costs of the services and programs that our governments provide.
What is this money spent for? In the early 1970’s the federal government spent  from $75 billion to $80 billion each year for national defense. Space research and technology took another $3 billion to $4 billion. Veteran’s benefits cost $8 to $12 billion. Interest on the national debt was over $20 billion per year. In addition, many billions of dollars were required for the federal government to help our states construct highways, housing, and community redevelopment projects. Federal aid to education and manpower training averaged over $10 billion annually. The huge costs of governments are of concern to every citizen.  Americans have to pay the costs of government. We pay them without taxes. We have a responsibility as concerned citizens to make sure that our governments spend our money wisely and spend it for worthwhile purposes.

Passage Two
Economics is a study of the process by which we make and spend our incomes. It
is also defined as a study of how man satisfies his wants and needs for economic goods and services. Even more specifically, economics is a study the process by which man attempts to get the most satisfaction possible when he cannot buy all of the goods and services that he would like. The inability of man to buy all of the goods and services that he would like is often referred to as the economic fact of scarcity. Economics, then, is concerned with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services.  Economic activity at a given time includes everything that is being done to satisfy man’s wants and needs through production, distribution, and consumption. Management, labor, and government all contribute to economic activity through which man’s wants and needs are satisfied.
The end results sought through economic activity are: (1) the creating of economic goods and services for man’s use; and (2) the providing of opportunities for man to earn a reasonable income so he can acquire and consume the goods and services he wants and needs.

5. Economics was definitely said to involve______.
a. Making a living

http://yes-books.ru/files/EGE.pdf


Словообразование в английском языке
Можно  значительно облегчить процесс чтения если понять, как образуются многие английские слова. Основа слова - его корень, основной элемент, который сохранится для всех производных.
Префикс - элемент слова, который ставится перед корнем.
Суффикс - элемент слова, который ставится после корня слова.
Например:
корень = measure /мера/
суффикс = able - measurable/измеримый/.
префикс = im - immeasurable/огромный, неизмеримый/

Префикс обычно изменяет значение слова, а суффикс - часть речи.

Изменение английских слов при помощи преффиксов
Рассмотрим значения различных префиксов.
Отрицательные префиксы: un-, in-,  il-, im-
ПрефФиксы un-, in-, а также такие варианты последнего, как il- (перед l), ir- (перед r), im- (перед m и p) меняют значение слова на противоположное. Чаще всего они соответствуют русской приставке не:
Приставка «un»
Unknown, unwise, unimportant, undesirable, unbelievable, unfortunately, unhealthy, unsafe, unconnected, uninterested, unhappy, unfair, unselfish, unintelligent, unkind, unfriendly, unreliable, unreasonable, unusual, unpleasant, undress, unproven, unofficial, unload, unpack, undo, unchain, unfold ,unpopular.
Приставка «il»
Illegal, illiterate
Приставка «ir»
Irreplaceable, irregular, irreconcilable, irrelevant, irreparable, irrespective, irresponsible irreversible.
Приставка «im»
Impossible, impatient, imperfect, immoral, immortal, impartial, impassive, impermissible, impersonal, improbable, impure, improper.
Приставка «in»
Inexpensive, invisible, inappropriate, insensitive, insincere, intolerant, indifferent, inattentive, informal, incorrect, indefinite, inability, inaccurate, inadmissible, incapable, incomparable, inconvenient, incontinent, incredible, incurable, independence, indignant, indirect, indivisible, ineffective, infamous, indistinguishable, innumerable, inseparable, insignificant.
Следующие ниже префиксы в английском языке имеют в большинстве своем латинское, иногда греческое происхождение. Очень часто аналогичные префиксы – или слова, в которых они использованы – существуют и в русском языке.
Префикс dis- может выражать и отрицание, и противоположное действие или понятие:
Приставка «dis»
Disallow, disappear, disagree, discover, dishonest, disobedient, disjoin, dislike, disadvantage, discharge, disconnect
 Префикс mis- имеет значение неправильно, неверно:
Приставка «mis»
Misbehave, misunderstand, misuse, mis-spend, mislead, misadvise, mispronounce, misspell, misfortune, misfire, mistake, mismatch, misprint 
Префикс re- передает значение повтора, повторения действия. Часто соответствует русской приставке пере-. В научной, политической лексике префикс re- встречается довольно часто.
Приставка «re»
Re-send , restructuring , re-export,  to resell , to redo ,remarry, reread, , redo, replace, retell, recall, refresh, resell

Water Sports

If you are the type of a person who enjoys water sports, Dagabi is definitely the place for you! The water is so warm you can swim all year round. If you like messing around in boats, you can go sailing, windsurfing, or jet-skiing. For the keen fisherman Dagabi is an island paradise with many opportunities to fish both from the shore and from boats at very reasonable prices. Sport fishing for shark and larger fish is also available however, you should be aware that although the boats are relatively inexpensive if you need to hire the equipment too it can turn out to be a little on the expensive side.
Undersea sports such as scuba diving and snorkeling are also very popular activities on Dagabi. Visitors who have never before been scuba diving have a great opportunity to learn from the many expert divers, who offer guided dives and classes leading to a certificate. After a short course you could be swimming in the warm clear water alongside the thousands of different species of colourful fish that inhabit the sea around the island. As if that were not enough, there is also the chance to explore the amazing coral reef, which extends around the island. A word of warning, scuba diving can be dangerous so you should take all the necessary precautions and never dive alone.
For the less adventurous snorkeling can be great fun. The equipment is far simpler and less expensive than that needed for scuba diving and consists of just a facemask, a breathing tube or snorkel and flippers for your feet. It only takes a few minutes to learn how to snorkel. Unlike scuba divers snorkelers don't go deep into the water, but swim slowly with their faces just below the surface while breathing through their tubes. The waters around this ancient volcanic island are so clean and clear that there is plenty of colour and beauty to see even from near the surface.
