问题                 The Difference between Man and Computer
    What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don’t yet【C1】______for? The answer is simple; People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about【C2】______they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand, don’t. In fact, computers don’t【C3】______have interests; there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they read. If a computer【C4】______is to be a model of story understanding, it should also read for a "purpose".
    Of course, people have several goals that do not make【C5】______to attribute to computers. One might read a restaurant guide【C6】______order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to 【C7】______a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.
    However, these physiological and social goals give【C8】______to several intellectual or cognitive goals. A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find【C9】______about the name of a restaurant which【C10】______the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to【C11】______information or knowledge, what we are calling【C12】______goals. These goals can be held by computers too；a computer【C13】______"want" to find out the location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so【C14】______the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not【C15】______out of hunger in the case of the computer, it might well arise out of the "goal" to learn more about restaurants.
【C13】
选项 A、could
B、might
C、should
D、would
答案B
解析 此处缺一个情态动词，阅读到后半句时便很容易选出答案，此处的might与后面as a person might相呼应，表示不确定的推测，意为“可能，也许”。
