The main challenge is that the existing weapons and equipment data fails to carry out structured knowledge representation, and knowledge navigation based on natural language cannot efficiently support the WEORA. To solve above problem, this research proposes a method based on question answering(QA) of weapons and equipment knowledge graph(WEKG) to construct and navigate the knowledge related to weapons and equipment in the WEORA. This method firstly constructs the WEKG, and builds a neutral network-based QA system over the WEKG by means of semantic parsing for knowledge navigation. Finally, the method is evaluated and a chatbot on the QA system is developed for the WEORA. Our proposed method has good performance in the accuracy and efficiency of searching target knowledge, and can well assist the WEORA.展开更多

Different types of questions can be designed to achieve different purposes in reading. While designing questions, teachers should take into consideration such points as the language used, manner of presentation and types of questions etc. Moreover, once questions have been designed, it’s essential for teachers to think about the techniques for the use of these questions. If appro- priately used, questions contribute greatly to students’ understanding of what they’ re reading by helping to explore the meaning that language conveys, in addition to developing proper reading skills. Therefore, teachers should be able to teach reading with well-designed questions so that the ultimate goal of understanding the text is likely to be achieved.展开更多
