It is open to the 17 million blind people in China. The borrowers can make phone calls, or send WeChat messages or emails(电子邮件)to the library, asking for the books they are looking for. The library then finds out these books, puts them into the mailing bag, fills in the address(地址)of the borrower on the other side of the card and waits for a postman to pick up the bag. Whenever the borrower finishes reading, he or she needs to put the books back into the bag, turn the address card around and put it into a postbox for the books to return to the library.
On the third floor, there are several big reading rooms with large windows. On the fifth floor, there is a museum. At the door, one can borrow earphones to listen to recorded voices of guides who will take the listener all the way, from the historical wonders of ancient China to the history of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and ancient technological achievements.
CBL also has a 20-square-meter room called “Try Darkness”. Here all the lights are turned off and the door is fully closed not to let in any light. It helps people understand how a blind person feels. Although it takes just about 10 minutes, it feels like an hour-long journey.

The arrival of ChatGPT will push educators to think more about teaching subjects that technology is not good at. The future is not about technology fighting against humans, it is about humans living together with technology. ChatGPT pushes us to think harder of what makes us human.
What is very clear is that the kinds of things that are easy to teach and test have also become easy for ChatGPT. The world no longer accepts you just for what you know. The world accepts you for what you can do with what you know, and ChatGPT pushes us to work harder on this. If students are only as smart as a smartphone, it means educators are not doing enough. People should develop human skills, such as imagination and creativity, that means we should imagine and create things.
The arrival of AI really pushes people to think hard about what education is and for what it serves. While Google or Baidu simply provides knowledge, ChatGPT goes a step further and analyzes (分析) a search before providing only an answer.
There’s a great risk if we just follow the answers from ChatGPT instead of questioning it and creating new knowledge (知识). ChatGPT is going to make learning much more interesting and powerful, but humans need to work very hard to win that race with technology.
41. What kind of subjects should we teach after the arrival of ChatGPT?
________________________________________________________
42. If students want to be smarter than a smartphone, what should they do?
________________________________________________________
43. What is the difference between ChatGPT and Google or Baidu?
________________________________________________________
44. What should we do with the answers from ChatGPT?
________________________________________________________
45. Do you like ChatGPT? Why or why not?
________________________________________________________
【答案】41. We should teach subjects that technology is not good at.
42. They should imagine and create things.
43. Google or Baidu simply provides knowledge, ChatGPT goes a step further and analyzes a search before providing only an answer.
44. We should question it and create new knowledge.
45. 根据自己的实际情况作答即可。Yes. Because it can help us imagine and create things.
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了ChatGPT对未来教育方向的影响。
【41题详解】
根据“The arrival of ChatGPT will push educators to think more about teaching subjects that technology is not good at.”可知,我们应该教授技术不擅长的科目。故填We should teach subjects that technology is not good at.
【42题详解】
根据“If students are only as smart as a smartphone, it means educators are not doing enough. People should develop human skills, such as imagination and creativity, that means we should imagine and create things.”可推断,如果学生们想比智能手机聪明,他们应该发展想象力和创造力,能够想象和创造事物。故填They should imagine and create things.
【43题详解】
根据“While Google or Baidu simply provides knowledge, ChatGPT goes a step further and analyzes (分析) a search before providing only an answer.”可知,谷歌或百度只是提供知识,ChatGPT更进一步,在提供答案之前分析搜索结果。故填Google or Baidu simply provides knowledge, ChatGPT goes a step further and analyzes a search before providing only an answer.

【答案】例文
Double Reduction Policy changed my life
I think Double Reduction Policy is very good for us students. As everybody knows, spending too much time on homework is not good for our health. If we have more time to rest, we can learn better.
Luckily, our life has changed a lot. As we can see, there are not so many after-school programs in the city these days. Now we have enough time to take part in more sports activities in some sports centers, such as ping-pong club, basketball club and football club.

The arrival of ChatGPT will push educators to think more about teaching subjects that technology is not good at. The future is not about technology fighting against humans, it is about humans living together with technology. ChatGPT pushes us to think harder of what makes us human.
What is very clear is that the kinds of things that are easy to teach and test have also become easy for ChatGPT. The world no longer accepts you just for what you know. The world accepts you for what you can do with what you know, and ChatGPT pushes us to work harder on this. If students are only as smart as a smartphone, it means educators are not doing enough. People should develop human skills, such as imagination and creativity, that means we should imagine and create things.
The arrival of AI really pushes people to think hard about what education is and for what it serves. While Google or Baidu simply provides knowledge ChatGPT goes a step further and analyzes (分析) a search before providing only an answer.
There’s a great risk if we just follow the answers from ChatGPT instead of questioning it and creating new knowledge (知识). ChatGPT is going to make learning much more interesting and powerful, but humans need to work very hard to win that race with technology.
41. What kind of subjects should we teach after the arrival of ChatGPT?
