The organization Ouachita Green put together this event, which allowed people from the Monroe area of Louisiana to bring in their recyclables,

18、dvantages, though. Some industries tend to be more competitive in the workplace than others. For instance, those in the sales field will typically be more competitive with co-workers than individuals in other fields, such as information technology. Nevertheless, a little competition in even the leas

19、t competitive industries can be positive. Competition in the workplace can create an environment where employees push each other to exceed their normal limits, which can result in increased production, both at an individual level and among the entire workforce as a whole. As individual production nu

20、mbers increase, so do those of the entire team of workers who seek to outdo one another. Competition can be rewarded with bonuses or various types of rewards.

26、sses of CompetitionD Artificial intelligence, or AI, has slowly begun to influence higher education around the world. Now, one new AI tool could change the way university students evaluate their professor. The tool is called Hubert, a teacher evaluation tool that appears as an AI-powered chatbot. In

27、stead of filling out a form, students use a chat window to give feedback(反馈) on the course and their professor. Afterwards, Hubert categorizes the students comments for the professor to review. Hubert is free for educators to use. More than 600 teachers have used it already. The goal of the new Hube

28、rt program is to improve education by giving teachers detailed, organized feedback from students. Viktor Nordmark, from Sweden, started the company in 2015, with several friends. Before creating Hubert, the founders asked teachers what would improve their teaching skills. The answer, Nordmark said,

29、was qualitative(定性的) feedback from their students. In other words, teachers wanted students to write detailed answers to open-ended questions about their experiences in class. Qualitative feedback is different from the survey responses, which students are often asked to provide at the end of a class

30、. “This kind of data takes a lot of time for professors to collect and analyze,” Nordmark said. And for the students, it can also be “really boring to fill out.” So Nordmark and his friends designed Hubert as a compromise between a traditional survey and a personal interview. “You can reach a really

31、 large crowd, but you can also get really qualitative data back,” Nordmark said. Now, when Hubert receives comments from students, it compares them with the information already in its system to organize the data. Nordmark says that Hubert will continue to get smarter as it receives more comments in

32、the future. Nordmark says he and his co-founders have plans to make Hubert more flexible and accurate. They hope to give teachers the possibility of selecting their own evaluation questions.12.What can be inferred about traditional teacher evaluation? A. Its data is easy to collect B. Users are charged for using it C. Students neednt fill out forms D. Students find it dull to take part in it13.According to the text, qualitative feedback . A
