請依下文回答第 47－50 題

Nigerians are the happiest people in the world. The World Values Survey found that almost 70 percent of Nigerians consider themselves very happy. Money certainly is not the reason that made Nigerians happy. Having tons of money is only a limited factor in happiness. __47__ Bill Gates, for example, is happy not because of his immense wealth but because everybody wants to be his friend. Money can certainly buy happiness, but its impact seems to drop once you can afford basic necessities. Of course, inflation makes the problem worse. __48__ Even when money does exert an influence, it is not the size of your paycheck that matters. __49__ The New York cabbie who has an efficient car may seem happy, but not as happy as the Ethiopian villager who has a more efficient cow than his/her neighbors. When you are living amid wealth and luxury, your desires tend to be greater. __50__ It should not be surprising, then, that Nigeria, Mexico, Venezuela and El Salvador rank the highest in happiness among the 65- plus countries surveyed.

請依下文回答第 36 題至第 40 題 If you want to know where Google is headed, look through Google Lens. The artificially intelligent, augmented reality feature seemed to generate the most interest at Google’s developer conference. Of all announcements, it best encapsulated what Google’s transition to an “AI first” company means. Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai underscored the tool as a key reflection of Google’s direction. “All of Google was built because we started understanding text and web pages. So the fact that computers can understand images and videos has profound implications for our core mission,” he said so in his introduction of Lens. During a demo, Google showed off how you could point your camera at something and Lens would tell you what it is－like, it could identify the flower you’re preparing to shoot. In another example, Pichai showed how Lens could do a common task－connecting you to a home’s Wi-Fi network by snapping a photo of the sticker on the router. A third example was a photo of a business’s storefront－and Google Lens could pull up the name, rating and other business listing information in a card that appeared over the photo. The technology basically turns the camera from a passive tool that’s capturing the world around you to one that’s allowing you to interact with what’s in your camera’s viewfinder. Later, during a Google Home demonstration, the company showed how Lens would be integrated into Google Assistant. Through a new button in the Assistant app, users will be able to launch Lens and insert a photo into the conversation with the Assistant, where it can process the data the photo contains. To show how this could work, Google’s Scott Huffman holds his camera up to a concert marquee for a Stone Foxes show and Google Assistant pulls up info on ticket sales. “Add this to my calendar,” he says－and it does. The integration of Lens into Assistant can also help with translations. Huffman demonstrates this by holding up his camera to a sign in Japanese, tapping the Lens icon and saying “What does this say?” Google Assistant then translates the text. Pichai said in his founders’ letter a year ago that part of this shift to being an AI first company meant computing would be less device-centric. Lens is an example of being less device-centric, on mobile. The technology behind Lens is essentially nothing new, and that also tells us something about where Google is going. This is not to say that Google is done coming up with new technologies, but that there are a lot of capabilities the company is still putting together into useful products.
【題組】40 According to this passage, why does Google Lens represent Google’s future direction?
(A) Google Lens serves as a great search engine for text and web pages.
(B) Google Lens serves as an active tool that captures the world around us.
(C) Google Lens utilizes artificial intelligence to retrieve data from images.
(D) Google Lens is a new device that provides translation with AI technology.
