It stands for “omni”, which means it can do “all things” in “all ways”. It is stronger than any of the GPT models that came before it. GPT-4o can understand orders through voice, text or images . It can also give answers in all these types of media, said its maker OpenAI. When chatting with you, it can respond as fast as a person can. “Talking to a computer has never felt really natural for me; now it does,” said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in a blog post. The new model may become your “new best friend” as it can help you with many things. It can teach you new languages, summarize a meeting and translate things really fast. But most helpful of all, GPT-4o can be your personal teacher.  In a video on the OpenAI website, GPT-4o helped a boy named Imran Khan with a math problem. Instead of giving him the answer, it asked, “Do you remember the formula (公式)?” This helped Khan think step by step. When Khan made mistakes, GPT-4o gave hints (提示) and let him try again, instead of just telling him the answer. These abilities are making lots of people think and talk about the power of GPT-4o. “Teachers give classes to many students at the same time. Now with AI, each person’s learning experience is tailored (定制) to their requirements. It fits what a student needs,” a viewer of the video wrote online. But others also worry it might take away some teachers’ jobs. Still, many people see hope. If used right, GPT-4o can give more support to people like the blind or those feeling lonely, Emma Darcy, who works at Denbigh High School in the UK, told Forbes. 1. You can communicate with GPT-4o through_____. a. text b. voice c. imagination d. images e. videos A. abc B. abd    C. bcd D. cde  2. Sam Altman’s words showed that _____. A. GPT-4o is as smart as a human B. talking to AI is still impossible C. GPT-4o can replace media D. GPT-4o made big progress  3. How does GPT-4o help Imran Khan with his math problem in the video? A. By giving him the answer directly. B. By guiding him step by step. C. By telling him the key formula. D. By pointing out his mistakes.  4. What is people’s worry about GPT-4o according to the story?   A. It may make some teachers lose their jobs. B. It may help students cheat in exams. C. It may totally change our education. D. It helps students learn independently.  5. What good side does Emma Darcy see in GPT-4o? A. It can create more jobs for society. B. It can help blind or lonely people. C. It can upgrade our school education. D. It can make people work faster. 【答案】BDBAB 【解析】ChatGPT 推出了新的AI模型 GPT-4o,它能够通过语音、文本或图像理解指令,并以同样的方式给出回答。GPT-4o 可以与人对话,速度与人类相当,并且能够成为个人教师,帮助学生按步骤思考问题,而不是直接给出答案。GPT-4o 的出现引起了人们对其强大能力的讨论,一些人担心它可能会取代教师的工作,而另一些人则看到了它为盲人或孤独的人提供帮助的希望。 1.B. 文章中提到 GPT-4o 可以通过语音、文本或图像来理解指令,因此选项 b(语音)、a(文本)和 d(图像)是正确的。 2.D. Sam Altman 表示与计算机对话现在感觉非常自然,这表明 GPT-4o 取得了显著的进步。 3.B.在视频中,GPT-4o 没有直接给出答案,而是通过提问和提示帮助 Imran Khan 一步步思考。 4.A文章中提到一些人担心 GPT-4o 可能会取代教师的工作。 5.B Emma Darcy 认为如果正确使用,GPT-4o 可以为盲人或感到孤独的人提供更多支持。 B 阅读理解 Li Jing is from Maotianping village in Cuijiaba, a town in the Enshi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture (自治州) of Hubei. She was one of the first in her community to go after higher education.  Following the call of rural revitalization (乡村振兴), after graduation, Li decided to return to her village in 2022. The 29-year-old now serves as the director assistant to the village secretary of the Maotianping Village Committee. Her role focuses on improving the quality of life for her fellow villagers. Rural revitalization is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25), set as a national strategy to draw talent to rural areas.  Enshi heavily depends on agriculture and most of its farmers grow potatoes. Li and her colleagues’ jobs include communicating with the villagers and making potatoes grow better. “We often hold meetings in the village square, where we share ideas on potato planting techniques , market trends and more,” Li said.   To sell more potatoes to places outside their village, the young people there choose to do livestreaming. “Video-sharing platforms like Douyin have greatly broadened our reach, increasing the popularity and sales of our small potatoes,” Li said. Along with other methods, such as e-commerce (电商) platforms like Meituan, the money made from potato sales each year has risen from 1,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan, according to Li. Emphasis has been placed on the quality of the potatoes. Li’s team created positions like potato managers, similar to marketing and sales specialists. There’s even a role as a potato appraiser (鉴定人), picking the best-looking potatoes for sale.  In the near future, Li hopes to continue helping villagers raise their potato production and increase their income. She and her team’s long-term plan is to promote urban-rural integration (城乡融合).  “I think it’s now called ecological tourism , ecological culture and green industries,” she said.   1. What is Li Jing's current position in her village? A. Village Secretary B. Director of the Village Committee C. Director Assistant to the Village Secretary D. Potato Appraiser 2.What does the underlined word “broadened” mean? A. 减少 B. 拓展 C. 增强 D. 加深 3. How has the use of video-sharing platforms impacted potato sales in Maotianping village? A. It has led to a decrease in potato sales. B. It has increased the popularity and sales of potatoes. C. It has no significant effect on potato sales. D. It has caused a shift in the types of potatoes grown. 4. What is one of the roles created by Li's team to emphasize the quality of potatoes? A. Village Secretary B. Potato Manager C. Director Assistant D. Potato Appraiser 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The importance of higher education in rural areas. B. The role of technology in rural revitalization. C. The economic impact of potato farming in Enshi. D. Li Jing's journey from education to village leadership. 【答案】CBBDB 【解析】李静回乡助力乡村振兴,通过技术手段提升土豆种植和销售,推动城乡融合发展。 1.C 根据文章内容,Li Jing 目前担任的职位是“Maotianping Village Committee”的村秘书的主任助理。 2.B.文章中提到“Video-sharing platforms like Douyin have greatly broadened our reach”,这里的“broadened”意味着扩大了他们的覆盖范围,即拓展。 3.B. 文章中Li说“Video-sharing platforms like Douyin have greatly broadened our reach, increasing the popularity and sales of our small potatoes”,说明视频分享平台的使用增加了土豆的受欢迎程度和销售量。 4.D. 文章提到Li的团队创造了一些职位来强调土豆的质量,其中包括“potato appraiser”,即土豆鉴定人,负责挑选外观最好的土豆进行销售。 5.B.文章主要讲述了Li Jing和她团队如何利用技术,比如视频分享平台和电子商务平台,来提升土豆种植和销售,作为乡村振兴战略的一部分。因此,文章的主旨是技术在乡村振兴中的作用。 C篇:阅读理解 What is the far side of the moon like? Dark, cold and empty. But it will soon have a visitor – China’s Chang’e 6 probe (探测器). The Chang’e 6 probe will be the first in the world to take stone and soil samples from the moon’s far side. The probe was launched successfully from Hainan on May 3. Humans have done 10 missions to the moon to bring back moon samples, including China’s Chang’e 5 mission in 2020. However, all these missions so far have visited the side of the moon that faces Earth. Because the moon turns at the same speed as it circles Earth, we can never see the far side of the moon. This makes it hard to stay in contact with any spacecraft that goes there. To help the Chang’e 6 space probe “talk” to Earth, China sent a new relay satellite (中继卫星) called Queqiao 2 into space to travel around the moon, helping send messages back. The Chang’e 6 probe also has new smart tools to help it collect samples better. “Even if the probe loses contact with Earth, it can do important work by itself,” Wang Qiong, deputy chief designer of the Chang’e 6 mission. The Chang’e 6 mission to the moon will take 53 days. During this time, the probe will go into orbit (轨道) around the moon and land in a place called the South Pole-Aitken Basin. It is a huge crater (撞击坑) on the far side of the moon. There, it will collect up to 2 kilograms of stone and soil to bring back to Earth. Scientists will study these samples to learn more about the moon. 1. How is Chang’e 6’s mission different from other missions before it? A. People can see where the probe works from Earth. B. The mission will start from the moon’s near side. C. The probe will bring back stone and soil samples. D. The probe will work on the far side of the moon. 2. What is the role of Queqiao 2? A. Sending the Chang’e 6 probe into orbit. B. Moving between Earth and the moon. C. Acting as a bridge between Earth and Chang’e 6. D. Helping people on Earth talk on the phone better. 3. Why is it challenging to communicate with a spacecraft on the far side of the moon? A. The far side is always dark and cold. B. The far side is out of sight from Earth, making communication difficult. C. The Chang’e 6 probe does not have the necessary communication tools. D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin blocks communication signals. 4. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Chang’e 6 mission will last over two months. B. Astronauts will collect 2 kilograms of moon samples. C. We can never see the South Pole-Aitken Basin on Earth. D. The probe completely depends on people’s control. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The Chang’e 6 probe is designed to study the moon's orbit. B. The Chang’e 6 mission marks a significant advancement in lunar exploration. C. The Queqiao 2 satellite is essential for space communication. D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin is the only place on the moon worth exploring. 【答案】DCBCB  【解析】中国嫦娥六号探测器即将成为世界上首个从月球背面采集岩石和土壤样本的探测器。 1.D 嫦娥六号任务与以往任务的不同之处在于,它将工作在月球背面,这是世界上首次。文章中明确指出,嫦娥六号探测器将从月球背面采集石头和土壤样本,而之前的所有任务都访问了面向地球的月球一侧。 2.C鹊桥二号的作用是作为地球和嫦娥六号之间的通信桥梁。文章中提到,为了帮助嫦娥六号探测器与地球通信,中国发射了鹊桥二号中继卫星,绕月飞行,帮助传递信息。 3.B 与月球背面的航天器通信具有挑战性的原因是,月球背面从地球上看不见,这使得通信变得困难。文章中解释了由于月球自转速度与其绕地球公转速度相同,我们永远看不到月球背面,因此与那里的航天器保持联系变得困难。 4.C 从文章中我们可以知道,我们永远无法从地球上看到南极-艾特肯盆地。文章中提到,由于月球背面永远不可见,这增加了与那里的航天器通信的难度。 5.B文章的主旨是嫦娥六号任务标志着月球探测的重要进步。文章强调嫦娥六号任务是首次从月球背面采集样本,这代表了月球探测的一个重大进步,而不是关于月球轨道的研究、鹊桥二号卫星的重要性,或者南极-艾特肯盆地是唯一值得探索的地方。 D篇:阅读理解 From April 20 to 21, 21st Century and Beijing Language and Culture University co-hosted the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy (Z世代公共外交交流会) in Beijing. Over 100 teachers and students from across China gathered to discuss how students can have better public diplomacy skills by taking part in MUN activities.  Wei Huacan, a 15-year-old from Qian Xuesen Middle School in Beijing, dreams of becoming a prosecutor (检察官). Having taken part in MUN and relevant activities for many times, he finds MUN super helpful for his future dream.  “MUN activities cover lots of topics, not just diplomacy but also law and more. For example, the international court (法庭) in MUN really supports my law studies goals,” said Wei.  MUN doesn’t just help students get closer to their big dreams; it also helps them do better in school. Eye-opening experience “MUN activities help students think more logically and quickly, making them better at speaking and debating in public,” said Zhang Lingyun, a teacher from Soochow Foreign Language School in Jiangsu. Her school has a special MUN class for students, with an MUN club for hands-on experience. Chen Wuyue, a student at Hangzhou Foreign Languages School in Zhejiang, has been taking part in MUN since grade 7.  “When I represented other countries, I stand in their shoes to think and speak. This helps me form my own ideas, instead of just learning from books,” she said. Chen feels that MUN has opened her eyes to what’s happening all over the world, helping her look further than what’s just in the textbooks. Bridging the gap As a fantastic way for young people to learn skills, MUN is growing fast in China. Take China Daily MUN (CDMUN) as an example. It covers over 200 schools across 26 provinces, autonomous regions and special administrative regions in China, according to Hu Linhui, director of the Training Department at 21st Century. CDMUN has helped schools in the east and west across China talk and learn more from each other. “Schools in the west are now using MUN to help mix different subjects together,  just like schools in the east do,” said Hu. “This program has bridged the gap between schools and promoted educational fairness among different places.” 1.What was the main topic of the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy?  A. How to improve debate skills in students.  B. How to improve students’ public diplomacy skills.  C. How to increase logical thinking among students.  D. The history and importance of public diplomacy. 2.Why does Wei Huacan find MUN activities helpful for his future dream?  A. Because he enjoys traveling to different countries.  B. Because MUN activities cover topics related to law.  C. Because he wants to become a teacher.  D. Because he likes to read international court cases. 3.What does Zhang Lingyun believe MUN activities can help students with?  A. Improve their logical thinking and public speaking skills.  B. Learn more about international diplomacy.  C. Become better at writing essays.  D. Gain more knowledge about different cultures. 4. What does a underlined sentence express the Chen Wuyue 's meaning?  A. We should speak and think properly.  B. Standing and speaking are also correct.  C. We also need to speak and think from the others’ views  D. Book knowledge is important but social practice is more important. 5.What is the main idea of the passage?  A. MUN is a platform for students to learn about international relations.  B. CDMUN is the largest MUN program in China.  C. The Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy was a huge success.  D. MUN activities are beneficial for students' personal and academic development. 【答案】BBABD 【解析】文章讨论了模拟联合国(MUN)活动如何帮助学生提高公共外交技能,开阔视野。 1.B文章提到,来自中国各地的100多名师生聚集在北京,讨论学生如何通过参加模拟联合国(MUN)活动来提高公共外交技能。 2.B Wei Huacan 表示,MUN 活动涉及许多主题,不仅仅是外交,还包括法律等领域,国际法庭在 MUN 中真的支持他的法律学习目标。 3. A Zhang Lingyun 认为,MUN 活动帮助学生更有逻辑地思考,更快地思考,使他们在公共场合演讲和辩论方面更加出色。 4.

It’s like being in an “echo chamber (信息茧房)” – a place where your own ideas keep coming back to you, and you don’t hear any different ones. This isn’t something new, but with everyone on social media, it’s happening a lot more now. Echo chambers are like invisible (看不见的) rooms on the internet where everyone agrees with you. Think about how people used to sit around a fire, telling stories that made everyone else all nod and smile. Now, we have the internet – our modern-day fire – where platforms let people from all over the world share their thoughts. Social media platforms know exactly what we like. That’s thanks to very clever algorithms (算法) sets of rules that computers follow to figure out what you enjoy based on what you click on, like, and share online. These algorithms watch what we do on the internet to show us more information that matches our interests and even what our friends like. But, being in echo chambers can be a bit tricky (棘手的). They make us feel good because we’re surrounded by views we agree with, but they also make us see the world in a very limited way. This can make our opinions very fixed and make it hard for us to understand people who think differently. It might even make us feel more separated and worried because everyone outside our “bubble ” seems so different. Luckily, there are ways to break free from echo chambers. One big step is to challenge ourselves by looking for information from different sources . This means exploring more diverse or different things on the internet, reading different kinds of stories, and talking to people with other views. Also, ask questions about where information comes from, double-check facts and be open-minded. In this way, we can make sure we understand the wider world a lot better. 1.What does the term “echo chamber” refer to? A. A physical room where people share stories. B. A place on the internet where everyone agrees with you. C. A social media platform for sharing personal ideas. D. A modern-day tool for telling stories around a fire. 2.What role do algorithms play in creating echo chambers? A. They connect people with different views. B. They encourage people to share more stories. C. They promote diverse discussions on the internet. D. They limit the type of information people see. 3 What might be a reason someone feels separated and worried in an echo chamber? A. They are unable to share their own stories. B. They are unable to access social media platforms. C. They don't have enough diverse information. D. They feel that everyone outside their bubble is very different. 4. What can be inferred about the author's view on echo chambers? A. The author thinks echo chambers are beneficial for forming opinions. B. The author sees echo chambers as a natural part of social media. C. The author believes echo chambers can be limiting and should be avoided. D. The author thinks echo chambers are necessary for sharing personal ideas. 5.What is the main idea of the passage? A. The history and development of social media platforms. B. The concept and effects of echo chambers on social media. C. The importance of algorithms in shaping our online experience. D. Strategies for promoting diverse discussions on the internet. 【答案】BDDCB 【解析】文章讨论了社交媒体上信息茧房的现象,它如何形成,以及如何打破这种局限以拓宽我们的视野。 1. B "echo chamber" 在文章中指的是一个网络空间,在这里每个人都同意你的观点,就像一个你自己的想法不断返回给你的地方。 2.D 算法通过观察我们在网上的行为,根据我们点击、喜欢和分享的内容来展示更多符合我们兴趣的信息,这有助于形成信息茧房。 3.D章中提到,处于信息茧房中可能会让我们感到与外界隔离和担忧,因为茧房外的每个人看起来都非常不同。 4. C 作者认为信息茧房会让我们以非常有限的方式看待世界,使我们的观点变得固定,难以理解不同想法的人,因此可以推断作者认为信息茧房可能限制了我们的视野,应该被打破。 5.B 文章主要讨论了信息茧房的概念,它在社交媒体上如何形成,以及它对我们的影响,包括我们如何能够打破这种局限,看到更广阔的世界。 F篇:阅读理解 History is a tricky puzzle. It's dug up, written down and argued over. People always say that only the winners ever really get a say, and it's quite hard for historians to uncover the complete truth without any errors or bias.  So what happens when history meets films? Can a Hollywood film get the history right and make an entertaining piece of art? Oscar winner Oppenheimer (《奥本海默》) sets a good example. In the film, the conversation between Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein by the lake is not historically accurate, but it feels natural in the whole story, and it serves as the icing on the cake (锦上添花), according to The Paper.  There are many other examples like Oppenheimer. Usually, in a two-hour film, it is impossible to show the main character's entire complicated life. To make the story fun and dramatic, film makers need to take essential elements (元素) of the original history and create a new fiction. It's an inevitable and necessary choice. Meanwhile , the film Napoleon (《拿破仑》) shows that not all changes can be helpful. Many people think that the fictional parts of the film make the whole story messy since the storylines of war and love are both done poorly. There are many other examples of successful historical fiction films. It's possible that the very lack of historical precision (准确性) in these films, apart from the historical setting and character names, contributes to their greatness. They can present an attractive story set in a period that continues to be widely discussed in today's world. Whether you're into history or not, it's difficult to deny the emotional power these films bring to the screen.  According to The Guardian, historical fiction becomes successful when the film provides an enjoyable experience, instead of aiming for strict historical accuracy. A historical film should be regarded as a work of historical fiction rather than a strict history lesson. Also, it seems unfair to ask that filmmakers strictly follow historians' events when historians often disagree among themselves.  1.What is the main challenge historians face when uncovering history? A. The lack of physical evidence. B. The complexity of historical events. C. The bias of the winners' accounts. D. The difficulty of finding written records. 2. How does the film Oppenheimer handle historical inaccuracies? A. It avoids creating fictional elements. B. It blends a non-factual conversation seamlessly. C. It focuses on the main character's entire life. D. It prioritizes historical accuracy over entertainment. 3.What can be inferred about the film Napoleon? A. It is an example of a successful historical fiction film. B. It is praised for its accurate historical portrayal. C. Its fictional parts are considered to be chaotic. D. It focuses on the main character's emotional journey. 4.What does The Guardian suggest about historical fiction films? A. They should always be historically accurate. B. They should be entertaining rather than strictly accurate. C. They should not be considered as works of art. D. They should only be made by professional historians. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. History is difficult to interpret accurately. B. Hollywood films cannot represent history correctly. C. Filmmakers should follow historians' accounts strictly. D. Historical fiction films should be entertaining and emotionally powerful. 【答案】CBCBD 【解析】文章探讨了历史电影在追求娱乐性与历史准确性之间的平衡,强调了作为历史小说而非严格历史课的电影更应提供愉快的观影体验。 1. C文章提到,历史学家在揭开真相时面临的一个主要问题是,通常只有赢家的声音被听到,这就意味着存在偏见。 2.B文章中提到,《奥本海默》电影中,奥本海默和爱因斯坦在湖边的对话虽然不符合历史事实,但在故事中感觉很自然,起到了锦上添花的效果。 3. C文章指出,《拿破仑》电影中的虚构部分使得整个故事显得混乱,因为战争和爱情的情节都没有处理好。 4. B根据《卫报》的说法,历史小说电影在提供愉快的观影体验时会成功,而不是追求严格的历史准确性。 5. D这篇文章的主旨是讨论历史小说电影如何处理历史准确性和娱乐性之间的关系,以及它们如何通过引人入胜的故事和情感力量来吸引观众。 G篇: 阅读理解 Do you know that our lives are actually controlled by something called algorithms? But do we really get how they change the things we like and who we are? In a book called "Filterworld: How Algorithms Make Our Culture All the Same," a person named Kyle Chayka talks about how these smart computer rules, or algorithms, are on websites like Instagram and Spotify. They make our culture very same-y. What we like doesn't just come from us, but from these computer rules that want to keep us looking at our screens all the time. If what we like helps make us who we are, then this could be a bigger problem for how we think and feel than we think. Just mindlessly scrolling on Netflix or TikTok might not seem like a big deal, but after a while, we might forget what we really like. These taste-making computer rules are hard to escape. Chayka shows us this by talking about how they are in every part of life: like what we see on TikTok, where we eat when we use Google Maps, the music we listen to on Spotify, and even who we might want to go on a date with on Tinder. This world where computer rules make our decisions can change a lot of things about how we live and move around our towns and cities. It makes everything kind of flat and the same. No one can avoid this Filterworld completely. If you're lucky and don't have to use these computer rules for your work or school, you might be able to take a break from them sometimes. But what if your friend tells you about a movie they saw on the internet or you want to buy some shoes because everyone is wearing them after seeing them in an ad? It can feel like there's nothing you can do. But even though this Filterworld is hard to get away from, there is still hope. You can start by paying more attention to the things you choose to watch or listen to. This could mean learning more about a movie you saw or giving money to an artist you like. Even just telling a friend about a music album you think they might like is better than just mindlessly watching random stuff on TikTok. As Chayka says, to fight against these computer rules, "you have to really want to and choose to live your life in a different way." 1. What does the term "algorithms" refer to in the context of the article? A. Rules that control our daily routines. B. Computer programs that decide what we see online. C. Games that we play on websites like Instagram. D. Ways to calculate our preferences in math. 2. What is Kyle Chayka’s opinion on algorithms? A. They improve our tastes. B. They make our culture more alike. C. They help to identify our personality. D. They contribute to psychological problems. 3. What might be a reason someone would feel helpless in the context of the article? A. They cannot understand how algorithms work. B. They are unable to stop using their favorite social media. C. They see a movie recommended by a friend on the internet. D. They want to buy shoes because of a social media advertisement. 4. Which of the following is a way to resist the impact of algorithms? A. Limiting the use of social media platforms. B. Making choices based on friends’ suggestions. C. Getting more involved with the selected media. D. Disconnecting from social media advertisements. 5. What is the best title for the text? A. Algorithms: Cultural Takeover B. The Secret of Algorithms C. Social Media: Cultural Messenger D. The Rise of Digital Platforms 【答案】BBDCA 【解析】文章讨论了算法如何无处不在地影响我们的文化和个性,以及我们如何通过有意识的选择来抵抗这种单一化趋势。 1.B在文章中,“算法”指的是计算机程序,这些程序决定我们在网上看到的内容。因此,正确答案是 B. Computer programs that decide what we see online。 2.B Kyle Chayka 认为算法使我们的文化变得越来越相似,这是通过算法在诸如 Instagram 和 Spotify 等网站上的运用实现的。因此,正确答案是 B. They make our culture more alike。 3.D文章中提到,如果你因为看到社交媒体广告而突然想买那些突然大家都开始穿的鞋子,可能会感到无助。这说明正确答案是 D. 4. C文章最后提到,抵抗算法影响的一个方法是更多地参与你选择消费的媒体,比如更多地了解你看的电影或者直接给你喜欢的艺术家付款。因此,正确答案是 C. Getting more involved with the selected media。 5.A文章主要讨论了算法如何控制我们的生活并使我们的文化变得单一,以及我们如何能够抵抗这种影响。因此,最佳标题是A. 语法填空 《月下独酌》 李白 花间一壶酒,独酌无相亲。 举杯邀明月,对影成三人。 Drinking Alone under the Moon  By Li Bai Among the flowers, from a pot of wine I drink without a companion of mine.

It stands for “omni”, which means it can do “all things” in “all ways”. It is stronger than any of the GPT models that came before it. GPT-4o can understand orders through voice, text or images . It can also give answers in all these types of media, said its maker OpenAI. When chatting with you, it can respond as fast as a person can. “Talking to a computer has never felt really natural for me; now it does,” said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in a blog post. The new model may become your “new best friend” as it can help you with many things. It can teach you new languages, summarize a meeting and translate things really fast. But most helpful of all, GPT-4o can be your personal teacher.  In a video on the OpenAI website, GPT-4o helped a boy named Imran Khan with a math problem. Instead of giving him the answer, it asked, “Do you remember the formula (公式)?” This helped Khan think step by step. When Khan made mistakes, GPT-4o gave hints (提示) and let him try again, instead of just telling him the answer. These abilities are making lots of people think and talk about the power of GPT-4o. “Teachers give classes to many students at the same time. Now with AI, each person’s learning experience is tailored (定制) to their requirements. It fits what a student needs,” a viewer of the video wrote online. But others also worry it might take away some teachers’ jobs. Still, many people see hope. If used right, GPT-4o can give more support to people like the blind or those feeling lonely, Emma Darcy, who works at Denbigh High School in the UK, told Forbes. 1. You can communicate with GPT-4o through_____. a. text b. voice c. imagination d. images e. videos A. abc B. abd    C. bcd D. cde  2. Sam Altman’s words showed that _____. A. GPT-4o is as smart as a human B. talking to AI is still impossible C. GPT-4o can replace media D. GPT-4o made big progress  3. How does GPT-4o help Imran Khan with his math problem in the video? A. By giving him the answer directly. B. By guiding him step by step. C. By telling him the key formula. D. By pointing out his mistakes.  4.

B 阅读理解 Li Jing is from Maotianping village in Cuijiaba, a town in the Enshi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture (自治州) of Hubei. She was one of the first in her community to go after higher education.  Following the call of rural revitalization (乡村振兴), after graduation, Li decided to return to her village in 2022. The 29-year-old now serves as the director assistant to the village secretary of the Maotianping Village Committee. Her role focuses on improving the quality of life for her fellow villagers. Rural revitalization is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25), set as a national strategy to draw talent to rural areas.  Enshi heavily depends on agriculture and most of its farmers grow potatoes. Li and her colleagues’ jobs include communicating with the villagers and making potatoes grow better. “We often hold meetings in the village square, where we share ideas on potato planting techniques , market trends and more,” Li said.   To sell more potatoes to places outside their village, the young people there choose to do livestreaming. “Video-sharing platforms like Douyin have greatly broadened our reach, increasing the popularity and sales of our small potatoes,” Li said. Along with other methods, such as e-commerce (电商) platforms like Meituan, the money made from potato sales each year has risen from 1,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan, according to Li. Emphasis has been placed on the quality of the potatoes. Li’s team created positions like potato managers, similar to marketing and sales specialists. There’s even a role as a potato appraiser (鉴定人), picking the best-looking potatoes for sale.  In the near future, Li hopes to continue helping villagers raise their potato production and increase their income. She and her team’s long-term plan is to promote urban-rural integration (城乡融合).  “I think it’s now called ecological tourism , ecological culture and green industries,” she said.   1.

But it will soon have a visitor – China’s Chang’e 6 probe (探测器). The Chang’e 6 probe will be the first in the world to take stone and soil samples from the moon’s far side. The probe was launched successfully from Hainan on May 3. Humans have done 10 missions to the moon to bring back moon samples, including China’s Chang’e 5 mission in 2020. However, all these missions so far have visited the side of the moon that faces Earth. Because the moon turns at the same speed as it circles Earth, we can never see the far side of the moon. This makes it hard to stay in contact with any spacecraft that goes there. To help the Chang’e 6 space probe “talk” to Earth, China sent a new relay satellite (中继卫星) called Queqiao 2 into space to travel around the moon, helping send messages back. The Chang’e 6 probe also has new smart tools to help it collect samples better. “Even if the probe loses contact with Earth, it can do important work by itself,” Wang Qiong, deputy chief designer of the Chang’e 6 mission. The Chang’e 6 mission to the moon will take 53 days. During this time, the probe will go into orbit (轨道) around the moon and land in a place called the South Pole-Aitken Basin. It is a huge crater (撞击坑) on the far side of the moon. There, it will collect up to 2 kilograms of stone and soil to bring back to Earth. Scientists will study these samples to learn more about the moon. 1. How is Chang’e 6’s mission different from other missions before it? A. People can see where the probe works from Earth. B. The mission will start from the moon’s near side. C. The probe will bring back stone and soil samples. D. The probe will work on the far side of the moon. 2. What is the role of Queqiao 2? A. Sending the Chang’e 6 probe into orbit. B. Moving between Earth and the moon. C. Acting as a bridge between Earth and Chang’e 6. D. Helping people on Earth talk on the phone better. 3. Why is it challenging to communicate with a spacecraft on the far side of the moon? A. The far side is always dark and cold. B. The far side is out of sight from Earth, making communication difficult. C. The Chang’e 6 probe does not have the necessary communication tools. D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin blocks communication signals. 4. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Chang’e 6 mission will last over two months. B. Astronauts will collect 2 kilograms of moon samples. C. We can never see the South Pole-Aitken Basin on Earth. D. The probe completely depends on people’s control. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The Chang’e 6 probe is designed to study the moon's orbit. B. The Chang’e 6 mission marks a significant advancement in lunar exploration. C. The Queqiao 2 satellite is essential for space communication. D. The South Pole-Aitken Basin is the only place on the moon worth exploring. D篇:阅读理解 From April 20 to 21, 21st Century and Beijing Language and Culture University co-hosted the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy (Z世代公共外交交流会) in Beijing. Over 100 teachers and students from across China gathered to discuss how students can have better public diplomacy skills by taking part in MUN activities.  Wei Huacan, a 15-year-old from Qian Xuesen Middle School in Beijing, dreams of becoming a prosecutor (检察官). Having taken part in MUN and relevant activities for many times, he finds MUN super helpful for his future dream.  “MUN activities cover lots of topics, not just diplomacy but also law and more. For example, the international court (法庭) in MUN really supports my law studies goals,” said Wei.  MUN doesn’t just help students get closer to their big dreams; it also helps them do better in school. Eye-opening experience “MUN activities help students think more logically and quickly, making them better at speaking and debating in public,” said Zhang Lingyun, a teacher from Soochow Foreign Language School in Jiangsu. Her school has a special MUN class for students, with an MUN club for hands-on experience. Chen Wuyue, a student at Hangzhou Foreign Languages School in Zhejiang, has been taking part in MUN since grade 7.  “When I represented other countries, I stand in their shoes to think and speak. This helps me form my own ideas, instead of just learning from books,” she said. Chen feels that MUN has opened her eyes to what’s happening all over the world, helping her look further than what’s just in the textbooks. Bridging the gap As a fantastic way for young people to learn skills, MUN is growing fast in China. Take China Daily MUN (CDMUN) as an example. It covers over 200 schools across 26 provinces, autonomous regions and special administrative regions in China, according to Hu Linhui, director of the Training Department at 21st Century. CDMUN has helped schools in the east and west across China talk and learn more from each other. “Schools in the west are now using MUN to help mix different subjects together,  just like schools in the east do,” said Hu. “This program has bridged the gap between schools and promoted educational fairness among different places.” 1.What was the main topic of the Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy?  A. How to improve debate skills in students.  B. How to improve students’ public diplomacy skills.  C. How to increase logical thinking among students.  D. The history and importance of public diplomacy. 2.Why does Wei Huacan find MUN activities helpful for his future dream?  A. Because he enjoys traveling to different countries.  B. Because MUN activities cover topics related to law.  C. Because he wants to become a teacher.  D. Because he likes to read international court cases. 3.What does Zhang Lingyun believe MUN activities can help students with?  A. Improve their logical thinking and public speaking skills.  B. Learn more about international diplomacy.  C. Become better at writing essays.  D. Gain more knowledge about different cultures. 4. What does a underlined sentence express the Chen Wuyue 's meaning?  A. We should speak and think properly.  B. Standing and speaking are also correct.  C. We also need to speak and think from the others’ views  D.

CDMUN is the largest MUN program in China.  C. The Seminar on Gen Zer’s Role in Public Diplomacy was a huge success.  D. MUN activities are beneficial for students' personal and academic development. E篇:阅读理解 Have you ever felt like you’re in your own small world, where everything you hear or see just makes you more sure of what you already think? It’s like being in an “echo chamber (信息茧房)” – a place where your own ideas keep coming back to you, and you don’t hear any different ones. This isn’t something new, but with everyone on social media, it’s happening a lot more now. Echo chambers are like invisible (看不见的) rooms on the internet where everyone agrees with you. Think about how people used to sit around a fire, telling stories that made everyone else all nod and smile. Now, we have the internet – our modern-day fire – where platforms let people from all over the world share their thoughts. Social media platforms know exactly what we like. That’s thanks to very clever algorithms (算法) sets of rules that computers follow to figure out what you enjoy based on what you click on, like, and share online. These algorithms watch what we do on the internet to show us more information that matches our interests and even what our friends like. But, being in echo chambers can be a bit tricky (棘手的). They make us feel good because we’re surrounded by views we agree with, but they also make us see the world in a very limited way. This can make our opinions very fixed and make it hard for us to understand people who think differently. It might even make us feel more separated and worried because everyone outside our “bubble ” seems so different. Luckily, there are ways to break free from echo chambers. One big step is to challenge ourselves by looking for information from different sources . This means exploring more diverse or different things on the internet, reading different kinds of stories, and talking to people with other views. Also, ask questions about where information comes from, double-check facts and be open-minded. In this way, we can make sure we understand the wider world a lot better. 1.What does the term “echo chamber” refer to? A. A physical room where people share stories. B. A place on the internet where everyone agrees with you. C. A social media platform for sharing personal ideas. D. A modern-day tool for telling stories around a fire. 2.What role do algorithms play in creating echo chambers? A. They connect people with different views. B. They encourage people to share more stories. C. They promote diverse discussions on the internet. D. They limit the type of information people see. 3 What might be a reason someone feels separated and worried in an echo chamber? A. They are unable to share their own stories. B. They are unable to access social media platforms. C. They don't have enough diverse information. D. They feel that everyone outside their bubble is very different. 4. What can be inferred about the author's view on echo chambers? A. The author thinks echo chambers are beneficial for forming opinions. B. The author sees echo chambers as a natural part of social media. C. The author believes echo chambers can be limiting and should be avoided. D. The author thinks echo chambers are necessary for sharing personal ideas. 5.What is the main idea of the passage? A. The history and development of social media platforms. B. The concept and effects of echo chambers on social media. C. The importance of algorithms in shaping our online experience. D. Strategies for promoting diverse discussions on the internet. F篇:阅读理解 History is a tricky puzzle. It's dug up, written down and argued over. People always say that only the winners ever really get a say, and it's quite hard for historians to uncover the complete truth without any errors or bias.  So what happens when history meets films? Can a Hollywood film get the history right and make an entertaining piece of art? Oscar winner Oppenheimer (《奥本海默》) sets a good example. In the film, the conversation between Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein by the lake is not historically accurate, but it feels natural in the whole story, and it serves as the icing on the cake (锦上添花), according to The Paper.  There are many other examples like Oppenheimer. Usually, in a two-hour film, it is impossible to show the main character's entire complicated life. To make the story fun and dramatic, film makers need to take essential elements (元素) of the original history and create a new fiction. It's an inevitable and necessary choice. Meanwhile , the film Napoleon (《拿破仑》) shows that not all changes can be helpful. Many people think that the fictional parts of the film make the whole story messy since the storylines of war and love are both done poorly. There are many other examples of successful historical fiction films. It's possible that the very lack of historical precision (准确性) in these films, apart from the historical setting and character names, contributes to their greatness. They can present an attractive story set in a period that continues to be widely discussed in today's world. Whether you're into history or not, it's difficult to deny the emotional power these films bring to the screen.  According to The Guardian, historical fiction becomes successful when the film provides an enjoyable experience, instead of aiming for strict historical accuracy. A historical film should be regarded as a work of historical fiction rather than a strict history lesson. Also, it seems unfair to ask that filmmakers strictly follow historians' events when historians often disagree among themselves.  1.What is the main challenge historians face when uncovering history? A. The lack of physical evidence. B. The complexity of historical events. C. The bias of the winners' accounts. D. The difficulty of finding written records. 2. How does the film Oppenheimer handle historical inaccuracies? A. It avoids creating fictional elements. B. It blends a non-factual conversation seamlessly. C. It focuses on the main character's entire life. D. It prioritizes historical accuracy over entertainment. 3.What can be inferred about the film Napoleon? A. It is an example of a successful historical fiction film. B. It is praised for its accurate historical portrayal. C. Its fictional parts are considered to be chaotic. D. It focuses on the main character's emotional journey. 4.What does The Guardian suggest about historical fiction films? A. They should always be historically accurate. B. They should be entertaining rather than strictly accurate. C. They should not be considered as works of art. D. They should only be made by professional historians. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. History is difficult to interpret accurately. B. Hollywood films cannot represent history correctly. C. Filmmakers should follow historians' accounts strictly. D. Historical fiction films should be entertaining and emotionally powerful. G篇: 阅读理解 Do you know that our lives are actually controlled by something called algorithms? But do we really get how they change the things we like and who we are? In a book called "Filterworld: How Algorithms Make Our Culture All the Same," a person named Kyle Chayka talks about how these smart computer rules, or algorithms, are on websites like Instagram and Spotify. They make our culture very same-y. What we like doesn't just come from us, but from these computer rules that want to keep us looking at our screens all the time. If what we like helps make us who we are, then this could be a bigger problem for how we think and feel than we think. Just mindlessly scrolling on Netflix or TikTok might not seem like a big deal, but after a while, we might forget what we really like. These taste-making computer rules are hard to escape. Chayka shows us this by talking about how they are in every part of life: like what we see on TikTok, where we eat when we use Google Maps, the music we listen to on Spotify, and even who we might want to go on a date with on Tinder. This world where computer rules make our decisions can change a lot of things about how we live and move around our towns and cities. It makes everything kind of flat and the same. No one can avoid this Filterworld completely. If you're lucky and don't have to use these computer rules for your work or school, you might be able to take a break from them sometimes. But what if your friend tells you about a movie they saw on the internet or you want to buy some shoes because everyone is wearing them after seeing them in an ad? It can feel like there's nothing you can do. But even though this Filterworld is hard to get away from, there is still hope. You can start by paying more attention to the things you choose to watch or listen to. This could mean learning more about a movie you saw or giving money to an artist you like. Even just telling a friend about a music album you think they might like is better than just mindlessly watching random stuff on TikTok. As Chayka says, to fight against these computer rules, "you have to really want to and choose to live your life in a different way." 1. What does the term "algorithms" refer to in the context of the article? A. Rules that control our daily routines. B. Computer programs that decide what we see online. C. Games that we play on websites like Instagram. D. Ways to calculate our preferences in math. 2. What is Kyle Chayka’s opinion on algorithms? A. They improve our tastes. B. They make our culture more alike. C. They help to identify our personality. D. They contribute to psychological problems. 3. What might be a reason someone would feel helpless in the context of the article? A. They cannot understand how algorithms work. B. They are unable to stop using their favorite social media. C. They see a movie recommended by a friend on the internet. D. They want to buy shoes because of a social media advertisement. 4. Which of the following is a way to resist the impact of algorithms? A. Limiting the use of social media platforms. B. Making choices based on friends’ suggestions. C. Getting more involved with the selected media. D. Disconnecting from social media advertisements. 5. What is the best title for the text? A. Algorithms: Cultural Takeover B. The Secret of Algorithms C. Social Media: Cultural Messenger D.
