It is now February 7, 2035. The search engine TalkTalk will be open to the public next week and this service will soon be something beyond your imagination. For the first time you can not only talk to the search engine, but you can discuss with it what you are looking for.

For example, if you want to know more about the oil price, TalkTalk asks if you want to know the current oil price, the development of the oil price, or news related to the oil price. You say that you want to read news about it and TalkTalk then directs you to your source, or lets you have the latest news related to the oil price in order from the most respectable sources.

Compared with other search services that use a certain algorithm (程序) to provide data from a search, the artificial intelligence(人工智能)behind TalkTalk is said to easily spot if a certain source is aiming to cheat the searcher. TalkTalk also judges and stores every given reply and discussion, to learn how to give correct answers. TalkTalk is also set to answer questions directly where there is a definite answer. How well this will work in the long run is yet to be seen, but thousands of people have tested TalkTalk and the quality is really good.

The first talking search engine saw the light of day more than 30 years ago and was called Speegle. It could read the results from a written search on the Internet, and was mostly for blind people.

So far, TalkTalk cannot read the information from a certain source to you by phone, if it is not freely available. There are currently talks to find an arrangement for this, but it would most likely be difficult because of copyright(版权).

TalkTalk is available over the Internet and also by phone, even

though it only speaks English. There are no plans to add other languages in the near future, most likely because it will cost a lot of money. When you are tired of asking TalkTalk all your questions, just ask, “Where is TalkTalk? ” and you will get an answer that will make you leave it with a smile on your lips. (383W)

2. The advantage of TalkTalk is that it can _______. A. be available wherever you go B. tell if a certain source is reliable C. read the search results for you D. offer different kinds of search results 3. What can be inferred from the text? A. TalkTalk can read all the information online. B. TalkTalk will speak other languages soon. C. TalkTalk may have a bright future. D. TalkTalk is very expensive.

4. What would be the best title for the text? A. Hello, TalkTalk

8

B. Where is TalkTalk C. TalkTalk is improving D. Development of search engines

5. In which part of a future newspaper can you read the text? A. Opinion. C. Lifestyle. 【语篇随练】 根据阅读理解翻译句子
