That the US stock market dropped sharply immediately after the US government put forward the proposal on Tuesday to tighten the control on exports of various artificial intelligence technologies indicates what the market thinks of the move.
Multi-national corporations have led the way in the profound compressing(压缩) of time and space that has flattened and changed the world over the last couple of decades, and the overwhelming majority of international technological transfers have been conducted among multi-national companies in pursuit of profits.
Thus the proposal the US government put forward on Tuesday to tighten the control to “avoid negatively impacting US leadership in the science, technology, engineering and manufacturing sector” is being viewed not only as a brake on the US economy but also as a barrier to maintaining that leadership since it will reduce cooperation with the rest of the world and shrink the market for US companies preventing them from investing research and development.
The bigger its market, the more profits a technology company can earn, and the more money it then has to invest in developing even more advanced technologies. This is as true for US companies as it is for others.
Behind the proposal is the narrow-mindedness of policymakers in the US administration, who choose to ignore the fact that the United States would not have become the world leader in science and technology if it had kept its doors closed.
If such controls are intended to contain China’s development, they will certainly fail.
It is true that China has a lot to do to catch up with the US and other developed countries. Yet it has made great steps forward by opening its doors and cooperating with other economies.
As it opens its door wider, it will have even more opportunities to cooperate with other countries in science and technology.
The de-materialization of economic activities — with economic output and income generation increasingly reliant on information rather than inputs of raw materials — only increases the need for cooperative agreements and a cross-disciplinary approach to increase the capabilities of AI and advance its application.
By trying to enforce and exploit an invented-here ideal that is untenable, the US will undoubtedly lose the leadership in science and technology gradually to which it has become accustomed, and prevent the progress of both humans and machines.
1.What does the market think of the proposal put forward by the US on Tuesday?
A.It will tighten the control on exports of various AI technologies.
B.It will become drawbacks which prevent the US from developing fast.
C.If the US had kept its door closed, it would have become the superpower.
D.If the market becomes bigger, a technology company can earn more profits.
2.What influence will the proposal have on China’s development?
A.It will increase the capabilities of AI in China.
B.It won’t stop China’s development though it aims to.
C.It won’t let China become the world leader in science.
D.It will make China lose many opportunities after it takes effect.
3.What conclusion can we draw from the passage?
A.Most of International technological transfers will be conducted so as to seek profits.
B.The US has become accustomed to its leadership in technology and will maintain it.
C.The US will suffer from its control of a variety of artificial intelligence technologies.
D.China has made too big steps in science & technology to cooperate with other countries.

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Electric car sales around the world rose by 54 percent in 2017, taking global stock across the three-million threshold （门槛）, the International Energy Agency （IEA） said in a report on Wednesday. In China, the world’s biggest market for electric vehicles, sales also grew by about half — but their market share remained small at 2.2 percent. In Norway, electric vehicles have by far the world’s highest market share, with 39.2 percent, according to the IEA.
“Supportive policies and cost reductions are likely to lead to significant growth in the market uptake of electric vehicles in the outlook period to 2030,” the report said, If policymakers honor their current commitments to the environment, “the number of electric light-duty vehicles on the road would reach 125 million by 2030,” it added. And if policy ambitions develop further, that number could become as high as 220 million by 2030, it said. But the IEA said that in order for the cars of the future to overtake their petrol and diesel-powered （柴油动力）competitors, governments will have to take the lead.
“The main markets by numbers （China） and sales share （Norway） have the strongest policy push,” the IEA said. “Looking ahead, the strongest current policy signals come from electric car policies in China and California, as well as the European Union’s recent proposal on CO2 emissions （排放）standards for 2030. ”
The EU has committed to cutting 40 percent of its greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 levels, and to improving its use of renewable energy by at least 27 percent. France, home to Europe’s second-biggest car industry after Germany, has gone further by announcing a plan to end sales of petrol and diesel vehicles by 2040, as part of an ambitious plan to meet its targets under the Paris climate accord （条约）. Electric vehicles use batteries instead of petrol or diesel fuel, thereby massively reducing their damage to the environment. But they are not without controversy （争论）.

There are some Christmas traditions between the United Kingdom and the United States.

Hanging stocking
Traditionally, American kids hang stockings around the fireplace for Santa to fill with presents. But in the UK. we hang stockings around the bed; being surrounded by presents is a fantastic way to wake up on Christmas morning.
Christmas pudding
Americans prefer to have pumpkin and pecan pies for the Christmas dessert; while we British are fond of Christmas pudding. which is a cake flavored with dried fruits and spices.
Dealing with Christmas tree
We British chose to take down the Christmas trees and the decorations within 12 days of Christmas, because we hold the belief that keeping then beyond that time can bring bad luck.
