Part 2. Read the following passage and choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which fits
best according to the text. Write your answers in the corresponding numbered
boxes. (10 points) MARCO POLO
“Here begins the introduction of this book, which is called “The Description of the World”.
Lords, Emperors, and Kings, Dukes, and Marquesses, Counts, Knights, and Burgessess,
and all people who wish to know the different generations of men and the diversities of the
different regions of the world, then take this book and have it read and here you will fine all
the greatest marvels and the great diversities…”
So begins Marco Polo’s book, “The Description of the World,” as presented in Arthur
Christopher Moule’s masterful English translation of a version of Marco Polo’s book
known to scholars and the “F” text. The storied Venetian trader escaped bandits, pirates,
rampaging rivers and sandstorms on his epic eastbound journey. Sailing the treacherous
coasts of Southeast Asia and India, Marco Polo returned to Venicce in 1295, after 24 years,
rich in gems, and wild tales of unimagined lands. Shortly after his return to Venice, Marco
Polo was captured at sea, possibly by pirates. One tradition suggests he was imprisoned in
Genoa’s Palazzo and that he devoted his prison time to composing his book. On his
deathbed in 1324, the legendary adventurer reflected that he had many more stories to tell.
“The Description of the World,” the original product of Marco Polo’s collaboration with a
romance writer named Rustichello has been lost, and so scholars are left to sift through the
some 150 versions known to exist, no two exactly alike. Scholars divide the 150 versions
into two groups, labeled “A”, and “B”. The “F” text, which falls into the “A” group, is
housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. Considered one of the best and very close to
the original, it is written in a Franco-Italian language described by one scholars as “uncouth
French much mingled with Italian.” Some of these “A” texts are notorious for variations
that show the biases, mistakes and editorial judgments of their copiers. For example, when
some translators were presented with the news that three Magi were buried at Saveh in
Persia rather than in Cologne, they inserted that the people of Saveh tell many lies. As these
books were translated from language to language, the opportunities for error multiplied;
one text from the early 16th century is a Tuscan translation of a Latin translation of an
earlier Tuscan translation of the original Franco-Italian language. Although we
5 of 15
have no confirmation of the Marco-Rustichello collaboration other than the book itself,
Marco seems to have approved of at least some of its versions, for in 1307 he presented a
French translation of it to an envoy of Charles of Valois.
The second group of manuscripts, known as the “B” group, provides some provocative
material not found in the “A” texts. From this “B” group, for example, we learn that the
people around Yarkand in western China suffer from goiter – a problem for them even
today. Until the 1930s the only examples of “B” texts were a few odd bits of manuscript
and a printed text by Giambattista Ramusio that appeared in 1559, two years after his
death. Ramusio tells his readers that his Italian version was produced with the help of
different copies.” [A] The foundation of his work appears to be a Latin text dating from
before 1320, with influences from other identifiable versions. [B] What is distinctive about
Ramusio’s work is that about twenty percent of it was, until 1932, considered unique. [C]
That twenty percent is thought to have destroyed in a 1558 fire. [D]
A second version containing much of Ramusio’s original material surfaced in Toledo, Spain
in 1932. Most of this Latin manuscript agrees with the “F” manuscript, but it also contains
some 200 passages not found in “F”. About 120 of those, however, are found in Ramusio’s
book. Because the remaining 80 offer valuable historical and geographical material and
even help to clarify some obscure passages of “F”, this manuscript is thought to be a copy
of something that was very close to an original.
In sorting this out, scholars have come to conclude that Marco Polo probably wrote two
versions of his book. The second version, presented by the “B” texts, may have been a
revision and expansion done for a select group of readers who had already made their way
through the first book. It is unlikely that we will ever know exactly what form the first
book took, but the versions we have still make for a very good read.

OpenAI last week opened up access to ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot that interacts with
users in an eerily convincing and conversational way. Its ability to provide lengthy,
thoughtful and thorough responses to questions and prompts – even if inaccurate – has
stunned users, including academics and some in the tech industry.
1.

“There’s a certain feeling that happens when a new technology adjusts your thinking about
computing. Google did it. Firefox did it. AWS did it. iPhone did it. OpenAI is doing it with
ChatGPT,” Levie said on Twitter. But as with other AI-powered tools, it also poses possible
concerns, including for how it could disrupt creative industries, perpetuate biases and spread
misinformation.
2.

After signing up for ChatGPT, users can ask the AI system to field a range of questions,
such as “Who was the president of the United States in 1955,” or summarize difficult
concepts into

9 of 15
something a second grader could understand. It’ll even tackle open-ended questions, such
as “What’s the meaning of life?” or “What should I wear if it’s 40 degrees out today?”
3.

But some users are getting very creative. One person asked the chatbot to rewrite the 90s hit
song, “Baby Got Back,” in the Style of “The Canterbury Tales;” another wrote a letter to
remove a bad account from a credit report (rather than using a credit repair lawyer). Other
colorful examples including asking for fairy-tale inspired home décor tips and giving it an
AP English exam question (it responded with a 5 paragraph essay about Wuthering
Heights.)
4.

While ChatGPT successfully fielded a variety of questions submitted by CNN, some

responses were noticeably off. In fact, Stack Overflow – a Q&A platform for coders and
programmers – temporarily banned users from sharing information from ChatGPT, noting
that it’s “substantially harmful to the site and to users who are asking or looking for correct
answers.”
5.

“While we’ve made efforts to make the model refuse inappropriate requests, it will
sometimes respond to harmful instructions or exhibit biased behavior,” Open AI said on its
website. “We’re using the Moderation API to warn or block certain types of unsafe
content, but we expect it to have some false negatives and positives for now. We’re eager
to collect user feedback to aid our ongoing work to improve this system.”
6.

“It is very easy for the model to give plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical
answers,” he said. “It guessed when it was supposed to clarify and sometimes responded to
harmful instructions or exhibited biased behavior. It also lacks regional and country-
specific understanding.”
7.

While the DALL-E tool is free, it does put a limit on the number of prompts a user can do
before having to pay. When Elon Musk, a co-founder of OpenAI, recently asked Altman
on Twitter about the average cost per ChatGPT chat, Altman said: “We will have to
monetize it somehow at some point; the compute costs are eye-watering.”
(Adapted from
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/05/tech/chatgpt-trnd/index.html) A. “It depends on what
activities you plan to do. If you plan to be outside, you should wear a light jacket or
sweater, long pants, and closed-toe shoes,” ChatGPT responded. “If you plan to be inside,
you can wear a t-shirt and jeans or other comfortable clothing.”
B. The tool quickly went viral. On Monday, Open AI’s co-founder Sam Altman, a
prominent Silicon Valley investor, said on Twitter that ChatGPT crossed one million
users. It also captured the attention of some prominent tech leaders, such as Box CEO
Aaron Levie. C. Still, Lian Jye Su, a research director at market research firm ABI
Research, warns the chatbot is operating “without a contextual understanding of the
language.”
D. In a blog post last week, OpenAI said the “format makes it possible for the tool to
answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and
reject inappropriate
10 of 15
requests.” As of Monday morning, the page to try ChatGPT was down, citing
“exceptionally high demand.” “Please hang tight as we work on scaling our systems,” the
message said. (It now appears to be back online).
E. At the same time, however, it does provide a glimpse into how companies may be able to
capitalize on developing more robust virtual assistance, as well as patient and customer care
solutions.
F. Beyond the issue of spreading incorrect information, the tool could also threaten some
written professions, be used to explain problematic concepts, and as with all AI tools,
perpetuate biases based on the pool of data on which it’s trained. Typing a prompt
involving a CEO, for example, could prompt a response assuming that the individual is
white and male, for example.
G. Like ChatGPT, the new Google Search and Bard are built on a large language model.
They are trained on vast troves of data online in order to generate compelling responses to
user prompts, but these tools are also known to get responses wrong or “hallucinate”
answers.
H. ChatGPT is a large language model trained on a massive trove of information online to
create its responses. It comes from the same company behind DALL-E, which generates a
seemingly limitless range of images in response to prompts from users. It’s also the next
iteration of text generator GPT-3.

GENETIC ENGINEERING- THE WAY OF THE FUTURE?
To examine the issue, we’ve asked the opinions of six experts
A. Dr Robert Rodriguez – bioethics lecturer
Is it so surprising that there is widespread public suspicion and mistrust? Incidentally, the
public’s negative view of GM cannot be attributed to ignorance because mistrust tends to
increase with education on the topic. This is despite an ever-growing body of research that
can find no evidence of harm. Of course, this doesn’t mean there isn’t any, even if we
assume the best intentions of the people involved; it’s a subject that is not completely
understood. Anyway why should the public assume that best intentions are behind the
research? Look at the past. Look what happened with BSE, better known as mad cow
disease. Agricultural practices did not protect the public, it endangered them. Look back
further to the pesticide DDT. We do not have a track record that encourages public
confidence.
B. Dr Lisa Khan – geographer
There is no doubt that people are starving today in many parts of the world. And with global
population growth projections – we seem set to add a billion people every twelve to fifteen
years – there is absolutely no debate that we will be unable to feed the population in the
future unless things change fundamentally. Genetically modifying crops is certainly one
way to achieve this change. But it is not the only way, and it may not be the most effective.
Take, for comparison, the “green revolution” of the 1950s, which greatly increased
productivity by using new strains of crops, new mechanical tools and petrochemical
pesticides and fertilizers; it has created its own set of problems. People may starve because
of lack of food, but the food is there; other things – social or economic issues – stand in the
way of it getting where it needs to be.
C. Dr Sylvia Johnson – doctor
I would like to point out that GM organisms have made very important contributions to
medicine. I’m not talking about GM foods; that is a separate issue. But if we consider
insulin being produced

11 of 15
in tobacco plants, there is a tremendous benefit. A difficult to obtain substance is made
available safely at a lower cost. The plants are cultivated in a greenhouse, under controlled
circumstances, the product they synthesise is purified in a stringent process, and the
modified plants are destroyed; there is very little risk involved. The potential for creating a
wide range of difficult- to- produce and life-saving proteins and pharmaceuticals, even
vaccines, at costs low enough for third world utilization should not be ignored.
D. Dr Gary Wilson – population geneticist
These days there is little question about gene flow. If you plant GM crops, the genes will
end up in non-GM crops, in wild weed populations, in soil bacteria; they cannot be
contained. They will move; they have moved. There are studies that prove it. In the early
research, they were citing probabilities of pollination events or gene transfer events that
were miniscule; these studies were used to support the cause of GM. But if you have
enough chances, if you cultivate enough acres, the improbable will happen. And it has. And
it will continue to. For a population geneticist there is no surprise here. At the risk of being
incendiary, I will say the conclusions drawn from this early research could be considered
an example of willful misinterpretation, of statistical probability. Well, it has become a
profitable industry.
E. Dr. Daphne Alexander – ecologist
I would like to mention the monarch butterfly. This insect carries out a unique migration
from the Northern US and Canada all the way to Mexico, and is reliant on a range of
environmental and temporal patterns throughout this whole geographic area. It came out a
while ago that one strain of GM corn that was engineered to contain a toxin, originally
from bacteria, to kill any insect that attempted to eat its leaves, also expressed this toxin in
its pollen. It was not supposed to do this, other strains did not. And this pollen was falling
on the leaves of the milkweed plants, on which the monarch larvae are dependent for a food
source, killing or stunting the larvae. This is an example of the kind of unintended
consequence that is impossible to foresee.
F. Dr. Andrew Wright – lawyer
In the EU, by law, food products that contain GM ingredients must be labeled. But it is not
quite as simple as that. In fact, it is not simple at all; it is unbelievably convoluted. Tomato
sauce made from GM tomatoes is simple; but it must be labeled. But what about meat,
milk, cheese, or eggs produced from animals fed GM corn or soya in their feed? The feed
must be labeled, but not the final product. And what about enzymes, like those used to
make cheese for example, that have been produced by GM microorganisms? Furthermore,
there can legally be up to 9 percent contamination with GM products, with no labeling
required, as long as the producer can prove it was accidental and unavoidable! I would urge
everyone to read widely; there is no other way to keep informed and a lot has already
transpired, while most of us were unaware.
Which person gives each of the following opinions about genetic
engineering? 1. _________ GM genes are already present in wild
populations.
2. _________ Some people may have misled others when they did not interpret data
correctly. 3. _________ Current research might not be correct.
4. _________ People haven’t been paying attention to developments.
5. _________ Even unlikely events happen.
6. _________ It is impossible to account for all the possible effects in
advance. 7. _________ People have no reason to believe what the
authorities say.
8. _________ Unintentional presence of GM items in food is not
regulated. 9. _________ There is more than one way to solve a
problem.
10. _________ In some cases the benefits clearly outweigh the risks.
