The sense of familiarity <experienced at the sparking of a memory> provides a connection between a present experience and those believed to have been previously undergone, but this by itself can provide only the most basic sort of knowledge, a kind likely shared with a wide range of animal life. ① Human knowledge amounts to more than an individual or even a shared past: we seek out new environments and dimensions for our understanding and try to bring the foreign and alien within our purview. ② One of the most basic ways in which the feeling of familiarity experienced in memory is extended over new frontiers is through the use of metaphor. ③ Metaphors pick up on similarities and create connections by comparing lesser known phenomena with already established experiences. ④ [When memory loss prevents us from performing daily tasks and our accustomed roles in life], it becomes a health concern [that needs further evaluation by healthcare professionals]. ⑤ They play a substantial role in the narrative character of knowledge by generating imaginative associations that bring the unknown within the sphere of existing understanding.

* purview: 시야, 이해(理解)의 범위

There is an important difference between the marginal and the total value associated with market prices or the willingness of consumers to pay in markets.

 

(A) They would allow him additional opportunities to fill a glass from the faucet, and an extra shower or two, but these would not be as critical to him (or to the people with whom he associates!) as the first ten cubic feet. Thus the marginal value of water — the amount one is willing to pay for each successive increment — falls steadily.

 

(B) He might be willing to pay a huge sum for the privilege of consuming the first ten cubic feet, because doing without them would deprive him of even the most fundamental (and valuable) uses of water for that month: drinking water, the occasional shower, etc. The next ten cubic feet would probably not be worth quite as much.

 

(C) Economists regard the prices that people are willing to pay as indicators of the marginal value — the value they place on the last unit purchased. Consider what a homeowner would be willing to pay for residential water in a given month.

* marginal: 한계의 ** faucet: 수도꼭지 *** increment: 증가분

Self-improvement is a point of differentiation between human and machine intelligence. Humans have strived for it over millennia. We respect our scholars, teachers, and guides because they help us learn and improve ourselves in many ways, including in our ability to exercise our mental faculty.

 

(A) This is direct and immediate manipulation of intelligence with no cost or consequence to the progenitor. As long as humans are limited solely to our biological intelligence, self-improvement with this level of rapidity or directness will always be impossible.

 

(B) This improvement, an increase in our mental ability, is a slow process for us — and also an indirect one. We learn through action, through the direct perception or input of knowledge. We cannot simply “copy” someone else’s intelligence to add it to our own.

 

(C) In fact, we have sayings such as “some things can only be learned through experience.” Machine intelligence is not restricted to this form of self-improvement. In fact, machine intelligence can create a million copies of itself, manipulate each such representation, test outcomes, and then discard inferior changes.

However, on closer inspection it becomes evident [that the meaning of this term has radically altered], <mutating into a superficial signifier of acceptance and affirmation>.

 

Anyone reading policy documents, mission statements, school textbooks and speeches made by politicians and policymakers is likely to be struck by the frequency with which the term ‘tolerance’ is celebrated. ( ① ) It is difficult to encounter any significant acclaim for intolerance. ( ② ) In official documents and school texts, tolerance is used as a desirable character trait rather than as a way of managing conflicting beliefs and behaviour. ( ③ ) So one can be tolerant without any reference to a set of beliefs or opinions. ( ④ ) Moreover, the idea that tolerance means not interfering with, or attempting to suppress, beliefs that contradict one’s own sentiments has given way to the idea that tolerance involves not judging other people and their views. ( ⑤ ) Instead of serving as a way of responding to differences of views, tolerance has become a way of not taking them seriously.

* mutate: 변하다 ** affirmation: 긍정 *** acclaim: 찬사

But [when she decides to concentrate on space exploration for a while], she turns her focus away from relationships, not seeing it as an important goal at the moment.

 

We have hidden goals — goals we are not attending to consciously — that move us to do things and cause all sorts of feelings. Strong biological needs function as hidden goals. ( ① ) An astronaut who chooses to spend a year in space without any human contact may experience great sadness due to hidden goals of affiliation that she has consciously decided to put on hold. ( ② ) This example lets us see that a single goal can be present to our conscious minds at one time but hidden from us at another. ( ③ ) The astronaut may have been very much aware of the goal of forming close relationships with other people while she was dating in college. ( ④ ) And yet the goal of relationships may still be there, hidden but powerful enough to cause an emotional reaction to isolation. ( ⑤ ) We could think of conscious attention as a flashlight with limited reach: it illuminates some of our goals and brings them to conscious awareness, but many of them remain in the dark until we change our focus.

* affiliation: 관계 맺기, 소속 ** illuminate: 비추다

Although the singing voice might be thought of as an extension to or development of the speaking voice, the experience of actors and singers suggests [that the two modes of vocal delivery remain independent]. Many classical singers refrain from talking for long periods before a difficult performance, because they are sensitive to the adverse effects of speaking. The ubiquitous tool of our time, the telephone, has long been known as the creator of many vocal problems because we do not speak on the phone as we would face to face. Apparently, we overcompensate for the lack of visual communication by exaggerating certain speech habits. This seems to be in line with the ideas of Lucie Manén when she lamented the lack of facial and emotional gestures when singers perform in front of a microphone without a visible audience. Singing has an effect on the speaking voice, and vice versa; most people who talk immediately after singing will discover that their speaking voice will have raised itself a few pitches above the norm. Singers [who train insufficiently in speaking] may suffer from similar laryngeal problems to actors <unaccustomed to singing>.

* ubiquitous: 어디서나 볼 수 있는 ** lament: 한탄하다 *** laryngeal: 후두의

Like many other animals, we benefit from a rapid, automatic response system [which keeps us out of trouble]. Imagine walking in a forest when a wolf leaps out. Information about the situation is promptly forwarded to certain parts of the brain, which swiftly screen it, initiate a response, and you leap back. Whatever you were thinking before is suppressed and you give your full attention to the perceived (a) threat. At the same time, substances are released in your body which, amongst other things, make your heart beat faster in readiness for further action. In these circumstances, you would probably call the sensation (b) fear. Others might be alerted to the danger by your posture, involuntary cry and facial expression. This emotional system probably evolved because of its survival value. But, in humans, the information is also sent to other parts of the brain, where it is reflected upon at a more (c) leisurely pace. If you deduce that you are safe because the wolf’s path is blocked, the emotional system is informed, and you relax a little and experience a spreading feeling of relief. Some people have argued that some of the other emotions which support our welfare may have evolved (d) differently. For instance, our ancestors also had a vested interest in supportive, personal relationships [because the welfare of hunter-gatherers depended on them]. Threats to these relationships may have produced feelings of anxiety, embarrassment, shame or guilt. On the other hand, (e) support for them may have led to feelings of thankfulness.

* deduce: 추정[추론]하다 ** vested interest: (어떤 일이 일어나기를 바라는) 사적인 관심
