Besides, many programs have been made to direct machines so that they work in very clever ways. Machines have been taught to play chess and to learn from what happens in the games so as to make their play better and better. Machines can beat many persons who play chess. Machines can translate from one language to another. They can prove statements in geometry as taught in school. Machines can notice printed marks on paper, so that a person is no longer needed to look at the marks.\nComputers can be used in many ways, such as business, science, industry, and government. _ \nIf people cannot tell exactly the correct way to do certain work in thinking, it is still a question how much of _ a machine can do. Suppose a person is \"teaching\" the machine and telling the machine \"yes\" when the machine is right, and \"no\" when the machine is wrong. Then the machine can keep on searching among possible ways for solving a problem--until the machine can do as well as the person, and perhaps much better.\nBut, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they can't reach agreement because the word \"think\" is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word \"think\".\nPeople, however, have only had experience with machines that appear to think since 1944.\nIt would be too early to say that after the next 200 years, machines will not be thinking.

We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like \"thou\" and \"thee\" to mean \"you\". In history we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history--and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names!\nClasses were also a lot more relaxing than in China. Teachers were called \"sir\" or \"miss\", everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a _ than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class.\nAt break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o'clock. We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding.\nIt was good that I'd had an excellent lunch, because at Sam's school, Monday afternoons are taken up with sports.\nI played my first game of netball--a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Fortunately , I'd had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in the game.\n\n<question>:\nWhat class does Sam have on Monday afternoon?\n\n<options>:\nA Maths\nB History\nC PE\nD Music\n\n<answer>:\n",
