A factory produces sets of 6 bowls of different sizes. A long conveyor belt moves the bowls one by one, from left to right.

一家工厂生产每套 6 个不同尺寸的碗。一条长长的传送带将碗一个接一个地从左向右移动。

Bowl production places the 6 bowls of each set onto the conveyor belt in a random order.

碗的生产过程是将每套的 6 个碗以随机的顺序放置在传送带上。

Before packing the bowls, they need to be sorted to look like this:

在打包碗之前，需要将它们分类整理成如下这样：

To help with the sorting, the factory places workers along the conveyor belt.

为了便于分类，工厂在传送带上安排了工人。

When a set of bowls passes a worker, he will swap any two neighboring bowls which are in the wrong order.

当一组碗经过一名工人时，他会交换任何两个顺序错误的相邻碗。

He will keep doing this until the set of 6 bowls has finished passing him.

他会一直这样做，直到那套 6 个碗全部从他面前传过。

See how the order of a set of bowls changes as it passes one worker: 

观察一组碗在经过一名工人时其顺序是如何变化的：

Question: 问题:

How many workers should be put along the line to sort the following set of bowls?

要将下面这组碗进行分类，应该在流水线上安排多少名工人？

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

The answer is: 4 

答案是：4

As shown in the question, the original order of the set of bowls is: 5 6 3 2 1 4

如问题中所示，碗的原始排列顺序为：5 6 3 2 1 4

Remember that swapping of neighboring bowls happens from right to left.

记住，相邻碗的交换是从右往左进行的。

After passing a first worker, the order of the bowls is: 1 5 6 3 2 4 (4 swaps, all with bowl 1)

经过第一个工人处理后，碗的顺序是：1 5 6 3 2 4（共交换了 4 次，都是与 1 号碗交换）

After passing a second worker, the order is: 1 2 5 6 3 4 (3 swaps, all with bowl 2)

经过第二个工人之后，顺序为：1 2 5 6 3 4（共交换了 3 次，都是与 2 号碗交换）

After passing a third worker: 1 2 3 5 6 4 (2 swaps, all with bowl 3)

经过第三个工人之后：1 2 3 5 6 4（共进行了 2 次交换，均与第 3 个工人交换）

After passing a fourth worker, the set of bowls is sorted: 1 2 3 4 5 6 (2 swaps, all with bowl 4)

经过第四位工人后，碗的排列顺序已整理好：1 2 3 4 5 6（共交换了两次，都是与 4 号碗交换）

Seven beavers are in an online social network called Instadam.

七只海狸在一个名为“Instadam”的在线社交网络里。

Instadam only allows them to see the photos on their own page and on their friends' pages.Instadam

只允许他们查看自己页面和朋友页面上的照片。

In this diagram, if two beavers are friends they are joined by a line.

在这个图中，如果两只海狸是朋友，它们之间就会有一条线相连。

After the summer holidays everybody posts a picture of themselves on all of their friends' pages.

暑假过后，每个人都会在所有朋友的主页上发一张自己的照片。

Question: 问题:

Which beaver's picture will be seen the most?

哪只海狸的照片会被看到最多？

A. Ari

B. Bob

C. Chio

D. Dmitri

E. Ehab

F. Fritz

G. Gerald

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

The correct answer is Chio.

正确答案是 Chio。

In order to find the beaver whose picture gets seen by most beavers, you have to count the beavers that are at most two steps away. The beavers that are one step away are those on whose page the pictures will be posted and the beavers that are two steps away are those who can see these pages.

为了找出其照片被最多海狸看到的那只海狸，你得计算出距离它最多两步的所有海狸。距离为一步的海狸是指那些照片会发布在其页面上的海狸，而距离为两步的海狸则是那些能看到这些页面的海狸。

当然，任何一只海狸只能算一次。

The following table shows the names of these beavers as from the starting point of each beaver.

下表列出了从每只海狸的起点算起这些海狸的名字。

他给正在出售这套公寓的弗朗西斯发了一封电子邮件，很快就收到了回复：

Hi,
Thank you for your interest in my flat.
Although I am not in town, I can send you the key to the flat so you can inspect it, but I need a security deposit of $5.000,- beforehand.
To show my trustworthiness, I attach a copy of my ID.
Cheers,
Francis

The beavers have created a clever irrigation system for their fields. The water flows from a lake at the top of the hill all the way down to the fields numbered 1 to 6 at the bottom.

海狸们为它们的田地设计了一个巧妙的灌溉系统。水从山顶的湖一直流到山脚编号为 1 至 6 的田地。

Along the water canals, the beavers have installed four water gates, where the water can only flow either to the left or to the right.

沿着水渠，海狸们安装了四道水闸，水只能向左或向右流动。

Click on the arrows, so that only the fields numbered 2, 4, 5 and 6 are irrigated.

点击箭头，使只有编号为 2、4、5 和 6 的区域得到灌溉。

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

The left top gate must remain as it is, irrigating fields 1 and 2.

左上角的闸门必须保持现状，为 1 号和 2 号农田灌溉。

The left bottom gate must be clicked to the right, diverting the irrigation to only field 2.

必须点击左下角的闸门向右，将灌溉水只引向 2 号田。

The right top gate must remain as it is, irrigating fields 5 and 6.

右上闸门必须保持现状，为 5 号和 6 号田地灌溉。

The right bottom gate must be clicked to the left, diverting the irrigation also to field 4.

必须点击右下角的闸门向左，这样灌溉水也会流向 4 号田。

The wrong possibilities only differ from the correct solution in that they irrigate one field too much or too few. 

错误的可能性与正确的解决办法唯一的区别在于，它们要么灌溉了一块田地过多，要么灌溉过少。

The Stack Computer is loaded with boxes from a conveyer belt. The boxes are marked with a Number or an Operator (+, -, * or /).

堆栈计算机从传送带上装载着标有数字或运算符（加号、减号、乘号或除号）的盒子。

The computer is loaded until the top box is a box marked with an operator. This operator is then used on the two boxes below it. The three boxes are then fused into one single box and marked with the outcome of the calculation.

计算机一直加载，直到最上面的盒子是一个标有运算符的盒子。然后，该运算符用于其下方的两个盒子。这三个盒子随后融合成一个盒子，并标上计算结果。

In the Stack Computer, calculations are entered in a different way to a normal calculator.

在堆栈计算机中，输入计算的方式与普通计算器不同。

Try these examples: 试试这些例子：

Enter your solution in the input box, and use the buttons to try it out on the Stack Computer.

在输入框中输入您的解决方案，然后使用按钮在堆栈计算机上进行测试。

• 2+3 must be entered as 2 3 +
• 10-2 must be entered as 10 2 -
• 5*2+3 must be entered as 5 2 * 3 +
• 5+2*3 must be entered as 5 2 3 * +
• (8-2)*(3+4) must be entered as 8 2 - 3 4 + *

Question: 问题:

How should the following computation be entered: 4*(8+3)-2?

以下计算应如何输入：4*(8 3)-2？

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

The correct answer is 4 8 3 + * 2 -.

正确答案是 4 8 3 + * 2 -。

However, the following answers are also acceptable as they all produce the correct output.

然而，以下答案也是可以接受的，因为它们都能产生正确的输出。

• 4 3 8 + * 2 -
• 8 3 + 4 * 2 -
• 3 8 + 4 * 2 -

These inputs all lead to the same result, even though the order of the operators and operations are not the same as intended in the given expression.

这些输入都会得出相同的结果，尽管运算符和运算的顺序与给定表达式中预期的顺序不同。

From left to right, we first have 4*(8+3), so we need 4 and the result of 8+3 on the stack. We achieve that by writing:

从左到右，我们首先有 4*(8 3)，所以我们需要 4 和 8 3 的结果在栈上。我们通过写入以下内容来实现：

4 8 3 +

We then have 4 and 11 on the stack, so we add a * to multiply the two numbers. We now have 44 on the stack, we add a 2 and a – for the final subtraction.

此时栈上有 4 和 11，所以我们添加一个 * 来将这两个数字相乘。现在栈上有 44，我们再添加一个 2 和一个 - 用于最后的减法运算。

Beaver Alex and Beaver Betty send each other messages using the following sequence of transformations on every word.

海狸亚历克斯和海狸贝蒂通过以下对每个单词进行的一系列变换来互相发送消息。

For example, the word "BEAVER" is transformed to "WBFCSF".

例如，单词“BEAVER”被转换成了“WBFCSF”。

Beaver Betty receives the encoded message "PMGEP" from beaver Alex.

海狸贝蒂收到了海狸亚历克斯发来的加密信息“PMGEP”。

Question: 问题:

What did Alex want to say?

亚历克斯想说什么？

A. LODGE

B. RIVER

C. FLOOD

D. KNOCK

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

Correct answer is FLOOD. The steps of the transformation, applied in the reverse order, are:

正确答案是 FLOOD。逆序应用的转换步骤为：           

“PMGEP” → “OLFDO” → “DOOLF” → “FLOOD”

That is: 

那就是:

• Replace each letter with the previous in the alphabet;将每个字母替换为字母表中紧挨着它前面的那个字母；
• Shift letters by 2 to the right;将字母向右移动两位；
• Reverse the word. 把单词倒过来。

The other answers are not correct.其他答案都不正确。

After school the young beavers are used to play together.

放学后，这些小海狸们习惯一起玩耍。

To avoid quarrels about where to play, they throw a normal six sided die.

为了避免争论在哪里玩，他们掷一个普通的六面骰子。

The decision is found according to this rule:

该决定是依照此规则作出的：

Question: 问题:

Which sequence of throws will send the young beavers to the sports field?

哪一种投掷顺序能让小海狸们去到运动场？

A.   

B.

C.

D.

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation 解释

The correct answer is 3/3/3.

正确答案是 3/3/3。

The first throw (3) is not greater than the second throw (3), so we have to follow the ELSE-IF branch. The third throw (3) is not greater than the first throw (3), so the rule sends the young beavers to the sports field. Throw sequence 6/6/2 sends them to the river. Throw sequence 5/3/1 sends them to the woods. Throw sequence 2/4/1 sends them to the river, too.

第一次投掷（3）不大于第二次投掷（3），所以我们得遵循 ELSE-IF 分支。第三次投掷（3）不大于第一次投掷（3），所以规则将幼海狸们送到了运动场。投掷序列 6/6/2 将它们送到了河里。投掷序列 5/3/1 将它们送到了树林。投掷序列 2/4/1 也将它们送到了河里。
