Honored as “one of the best ever”, the 19th Asian Games, held on August 25, 2023, in Hangzhou, has been highly praised.
The Asian Games is the largest sporting event in Asia. In 1948, Guru Dutt Sondhi, the leader of Indian sports, felt that the Far Eastern Games were not good enough to reflect the level of Asian sports and the unity spirit of Asian people, and suggested establishing the Asian Games so that all Asian countries could take part in.
The Hangzhou Asian Games is the third Asian multi-sport event held in China, with 12, 417 athletes from all 45 Asian countries and regions participating. Some rising sports that are popular among young people appeared at this Games, such as break dance and e-sports. Weiqi, a mind sport, have returned to the Hangzhou Games after a 13-year absence since it appeared at the Guangzhou Games in 2010. Certain regional sport in Asia, especially dragon boat racing, though not recognized as Olympic sports, also is medal-awarded event at the Asian Games.
The design details of the victory ceremony elements, like the bunch of flower, named “Fruits of Victory”, combines Chinese elements such as rice ears and lotus pods, indicating harvests, and wishes the athletes a journey of accomplishment and honor. The podium (领奖台) displays a purple rainbow on its outside, reflecting energy and innovation. Its white surface shows the spirit of unity, harmony and success among Asian nations and regions.
“Technically, we have had one of the best Asian Games ever. And the coverage of the Games from TV and the written media is also among the highest ever in the history of the Asian Games. The basketball last night (Saturday) attracted almost 17 million TV viewers.” said Vinod Kumar Tiwari, acting director general of the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA). “We have about 12, 000 athletes participating in the Games. The number of officials and the technical officials is 4, 975 and 4, 700, respectively. This by far has been the biggest and the largest Asian Games ever.” Tiwari added.
4. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The regions of the Asian Games. B. The spirit of the Asian Games.
C. The participants of the Asian Games. D. The origin of the Asian Games.

Over the years, April Fools’ Day has become larger than life. While it may be seen as just a bit of fun, there is more to jokes and humour than may be obvious, begging the question: are the jokes on the 1st of April a good or a bad idea?
Every year, individuals and newspapers present jokes on the 1st of April that may be funny, yet sometimes causing an unexpected upheaval. One radio announcement made in 1949, that a mile-wide swarm of wasps (一群黄蜂) was heading for Auckland, was taken a bit too seriously. The news even came with advice on how to prepare for the incoming insects, resulting in all residents walking outdoors tucking (塞) their trousers into their socks, wearing masks (面罩) as well as setting honey traps outside their doors.
What makes things funny? This is a million-dollar question and one that’s not easily answered. First, it’s influenced by the context, the culture, and personal opinions, meaning that it’s not consistent (一致的) across populations. Besides, if a joke is violating (违反) a norm or rule, it’s more likely to be regarded as funny. Such violations need to be harmless, as they can otherwise be considered unpleasant. In terms of personal experience, serious events may be considered funnier over time, while stubbing (踩) a toe, considered a small violation, would lose its comedic effect over time. Interestingly, people, children, in particular, have been found to be more likely to laugh when they are near others compared to when alone.
Jokes may not seem serious but can actually serve social functions like managing emotions and also be used to deal with matters in work. For example, studies have found that there is a meaningful function of humour in healthcare settings, as it strengthens the connection between medical staffs and patients as well as relieves stressful situations linked to end-of-life care among nursing professionals.
However, it’s suggested that jokes be used cautiously. For example, David Letterman gained reputation (名声) for an interview he had done with Lindsay Lohan in 2013, when the audience had laughed loudly at his repeated questions about her going to receive treatment. However, 8 years later, his comments were seen as offensive (冒犯的). So it’s important to ensure that any violations made are not significant enough to damage your future fame.
8. What does the underlined word “upheaval” probably mean in paragraph 2?
A. Upset. B. Fun. C. Annoyance. D. Popularity.
9. What can we learn about jokes from the passage?
A. People’s opinion of jokes differs. B. Jokes remain humorous all the time.
C. Jokes can strengthen our connection. D. Children are more likely to laugh than adults.
10. How does the author mainly share her understanding of jokes with us?
A. By listing figures. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. By answering questions.
11. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To tell us the function of jokes. B. To provide information about jokes.
C. To help make up funny jokes. D. To propose telling jokes carefully.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过愚人节笑话是好主意还是坏主意作为引入,说明了人们对笑话的看法各不相同,应该谨慎开玩笑。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Every year, individuals and newspapers present jokes on the 1st of April that may be funny, yet sometimes causing an unexpected”中yet表示转折,可知,每年的4月1日,个人和报纸都会发布一些笑话,这些笑话可能很有趣,但有时会让人沮丧。由此可知,划线词意思是“沮丧的”。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“First, it’s influenced by the context, the culture, and personal opinions, meaning that it’s not consistent (一致的) across populations.(首先,它受到环境、文化和个人观点的影响,这意味着它在人群中并不一致)”可知,人们对笑话的看法各不相同。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“For example, studies have found that there is a meaningful function of humour in healthcare settings, as it strengthens the connection between medical staffs and patients as well as relieves stressful situations linked to end-of-life care among nursing professionals.(例如,研究发现,幽默在医疗保健环境中有一个有意义的功能,因为它加强了医务人员和病人之间的联系,并缓解了护理专业人员与临终关怀相关的压力情况)”以及最后一段“For example, David Letterman gained reputation (名声) for an interview he had done with Lindsay Lohan in 2013, when the audience had laughed loudly at his repeated questions about her going to receive treatment. However, 8 years later, his comments were seen as offensive (冒犯的).(例如,大卫·莱特曼在2013年与林赛·罗韩的一次采访中获得了声誉,当时他反复询问林赛·罗韩是否会接受治疗,观众们大声笑了起来。然而,8年后,他的言论被视为冒犯)”可推知,作者主要是通过举例与我们分享对笑话的理解。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“So it’s important to ensure that any violations made are not significant enough to damage your future fame.(重要的是要确保任何违规行为都不会严重到损害你未来的名声)”可知,文章通过愚人节笑话是好主意还是坏主意作为引入,说明了人们对笑话的看法各不相同,应该谨慎开玩笑。由此推知,文章的目的是建议小心地讲笑话。故选D。

It is well-known that earthquake is one of the most serious natural disasters. Because of its sudden nature, the traditional earthquake prediction method is often difficult to predict it accurately, and has always been a difficult problem in the field of earth science. Recently, artificial intelligence is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations (强度计算) for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they used a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics (地震物理学), and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the Al provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background sounds in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “It’s a matter of milliseconds, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and possibly improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has locations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location in 300 earthquakes for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, are what moves science forward,” says Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
12. What can we infer from the passage?
A. AI can predict earthquakes accurately.
B. AI is provided with accurate strength calculations.
C. AI can prevent the potential earthquakes from coming.
D. AI forecasts earthquakes by analyzing background sounds.
13. What makes Texas a better place to do the follow-up tests?
A. Building many earthquake stations. B. Over ten years of continuous records.
C. Reliable earthquake tracing networks. D. Researcher’s confidence in the technology.
14. What is the author’s attitude to the AI algorithm?
A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Disapproving. D. Doubtful.
15. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. AI helps reduce possible earthquakes by 70%.
B. AI predicts earthquakes with a certain accuracy.
C. AI algorithm improves earthquake preparation worldwide.
D. AI algorithm produces accurate predictions about earthquakes.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B

Be Like Dad
Be the reason someone feels loved and believes in the goodness in people.
I was in my study on a cold Sunday in May 2020 when I glanced out the window and saw my dad’s car parked in our driveway. He was walking from my front door to his car, about to leave. Why would he drive all the way to my house, only to turn around and leave? Had the doorbell stopped working? I raced downstairs, opened the door and yelled “Dad! What are you doing?” I shouted.
My dad lives forty minutes away, and I hadn’t seen him since COVID-19 because we were following the health-department guidelines to self-isolate and not leave the house, so it’s strange that he would show up.
He smiled and pointed beside the door, where I could see a bright yellow begonia (秋海棠) plant.
“I know it is Mother’s Day, but... I’m not a mother,” I was puzzled.
My dad smiled. “But I think you should get flowers, too, my dear son.” With that, he winked and drove off.
That evening, I called to thank him and told him how touched I was that he had driven such a long round trip just to leave begonias on my doorstep.
That’s when he let me in on his little secret. It turns out I wasn’t the only receiver of an act of kindness from him. To keep away from the loneliness during epidemic he decided to do acts of kindness to remove the social isolation (隔离,孤立), and it made him so happy to see the smiles on people’s faces.
“But why?” I continued.
It just had started a couple of weeks before, when a friend of his was having a tough day and called him to talk about it. He knew she loved ice cream, so after ringing off, he went straight to the grocery store, bought a huge ice cream, drove to her house and left it on her doorstep. Then he called from the driveway to tell her to look outside.
“She just beamed when she saw it. I don’t think leaving her a million dollars would have made her happier.”

Honored as “one of the best ever”, the 19th Asian Games, held on August 25, 2023, in Hangzhou, has been highly praised.
The Asian Games is the largest sporting event in Asia. In 1948, Guru Dutt Sondhi, the leader of Indian sports, felt that the Far Eastern Games were not good enough to reflect the level of Asian sports and the unity spirit of Asian people, and suggested establishing the Asian Games so that all Asian countries could take part in.
The Hangzhou Asian Games is the third Asian multi-sport event held in China, with 12, 417 athletes from all 45 Asian countries and regions participating. Some rising sports that are popular among young people appeared at this Games, such as break dance and e-sports. Weiqi, a mind sport, have returned to the Hangzhou Games after a 13-year absence since it appeared at the Guangzhou Games in 2010. Certain regional sport in Asia, especially dragon boat racing, though not recognized as Olympic sports, also is medal-awarded event at the Asian Games.
The design details of the victory ceremony elements, like the bunch of flower, named “Fruits of Victory”, combines Chinese elements such as rice ears and lotus pods, indicating harvests, and wishes the athletes a journey of accomplishment and honor. The podium (领奖台) displays a purple rainbow on its outside, reflecting energy and innovation. Its white surface shows the spirit of unity, harmony and success among Asian nations and regions.
“Technically, we have had one of the best Asian Games ever. And the coverage of the Games from TV and the written media is also among the highest ever in the history of the Asian Games. The basketball last night (Saturday) attracted almost 17 million TV viewers.” said Vinod Kumar Tiwari, acting director general of the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA). “We have about 12, 000 athletes participating in the Games. The number of officials and the technical officials is 4, 975 and 4, 700, respectively. This by far has been the biggest and the largest Asian Games ever.” Tiwari added.
4. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The regions of the Asian Games. B. The spirit of the Asian Games.
C. The participants of the Asian Games. D. The origin of the Asian Games.
5. Which of the following is true about the Hangzhou Asian Games?
A. Weiqi has been a competition event for 13 years.
B. Break dance made its first appearance in the Games.
C. It involved the largest number of Asian athletes in history.
D. The Olympics and the Asian Games share the same medal-awarded sports.
6. What does the podium in the victory ceremony stand for?
A. Harvest and harmony. B. Unity and honor.
C Energy and creation. D. Nobility and achievements.
7. Why is Vinod Kumar Tiwari mentioned in the last paragraph?

Over the years, April Fools’ Day has become larger than life. While it may be seen as just a bit of fun, there is more to jokes and humour than may be obvious, begging the question: are the jokes on the 1st of April a good or a bad idea?
Every year, individuals and newspapers present jokes on the 1st of April that may be funny, yet sometimes causing an unexpected upheaval. One radio announcement made in 1949, that a mile-wide swarm of wasps (一群黄蜂) was heading for Auckland, was taken a bit too seriously. The news even came with advice on how to prepare for the incoming insects, resulting in all residents walking outdoors tucking (塞) their trousers into their socks, wearing masks (面罩) as well as setting honey traps outside their doors.
What makes things funny? This is a million-dollar question and one that’s not easily answered. First, it’s influenced by the context, the culture, and personal opinions, meaning that it’s not consistent (一致的) across populations. Besides, if a joke is violating (违反) a norm or rule, it’s more likely to be regarded as funny. Such violations need to be harmless, as they can otherwise be considered unpleasant. In terms of personal experience, serious events may be considered funnier over time, while stubbing (踩) a toe, considered a small violation, would lose its comedic effect over time. Interestingly, people, children, in particular, have been found to be more likely to laugh when they are near others compared to when alone.
Jokes may not seem serious but can actually serve social functions like managing emotions and also be used to deal with matters in work. For example, studies have found that there is a meaningful function of humour in healthcare settings, as it strengthens the connection between medical staffs and patients as well as relieves stressful situations linked to end-of-life care among nursing professionals.
However, it’s suggested that jokes be used cautiously. For example, David Letterman gained reputation (名声) for an interview he had done with Lindsay Lohan in 2013, when the audience had laughed loudly at his repeated questions about her going to receive treatment. However, 8 years later, his comments were seen as offensive (冒犯的). So it’s important to ensure that any violations made are not significant enough to damage your future fame.
8. What does the underlined word “upheaval” probably mean in paragraph 2?
A. Upset. B. Fun. C. Annoyance. D. Popularity.
9. What can we learn about jokes from the passage?
A. People’s opinion of jokes differs. B. Jokes remain humorous all the time.
C. Jokes can strengthen our connection. D. Children are more likely to laugh than adults.
10. How does the author mainly share her understanding of jokes with us?
A. By listing figures. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. By answering questions.
11. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To tell us the function of jokes. B. To provide information about jokes.
C. To help make up funny jokes. D. To propose telling jokes carefully.
D
It is well-known that earthquake is one of the most serious natural disasters. Because of its sudden nature, the traditional earthquake prediction method is often difficult to predict it accurately, and has always been a difficult problem in the field of earth science. Recently, artificial intelligence is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations (强度计算) for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they used a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics (地震物理学), and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the Al provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background sounds in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “It’s a matter of milliseconds, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and possibly improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has locations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location in 300 earthquakes for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, are what moves science forward,” says Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
12 What can we infer from the passage?
A. AI can predict earthquakes accurately.
B. AI is provided with accurate strength calculations.
C. AI can prevent the potential earthquakes from coming.
D. AI forecasts earthquakes by analyzing background sounds.
13. What makes Texas a better place to do the follow-up tests?
A. Building many earthquake stations. B. Over ten years of continuous records.
C. Reliable earthquake tracing networks. D. Researcher’s confidence in the technology.
14. What is the author’s attitude to the AI algorithm?
A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Disapproving. D. Doubtful.
15. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. AI helps reduce possible earthquakes by 70%.
B. AI predicts earthquakes with a certain accuracy.
C. AI algorithm improves earthquake preparation worldwide.
D. AI algorithm produces accurate predictions about earthquakes.

Be Like Dad
Be the reason someone feels loved and believes in the goodness in people.
I was in my study on a cold Sunday in May 2020 when I glanced out the window and saw my dad’s car parked in our driveway. He was walking from my front door to his car, about to leave. Why would he drive all the way to my house, only to turn around and leave? Had the doorbell stopped working? I raced downstairs, opened the door and yelled “Dad! What are you doing?” I shouted.
My dad lives forty minutes away, and I hadn’t seen him since COVID-19 because we were following the health-department guidelines to self-isolate and not leave the house, so it’s strange that he would show up.
He smiled and pointed beside the door, where I could see a bright yellow begonia (秋海棠) plant.
“I know it is Mother’s Day but... I’m not a mother,” I was puzzled.
My dad smiled. “But I think you should get flowers, too, my dear son.” With that, he winked and drove off.
That evening, I called to thank him and told him how touched I was that he had driven such a long round trip just to leave begonias on my doorstep.
That’s when he let me in on his little secret. It turns out I wasn’t the only receiver of an act of kindness from him. To keep away from the loneliness during epidemic he decided to do acts of kindness to remove the social isolation (隔离,孤立), and it made him so happy to see the smiles on people’s faces.
“But why?” I continued.
It just had started a couple of weeks before, when a friend of his was having a tough day and called him to talk about it. He knew she loved ice cream, so after ringing off, he went straight to the grocery store, bought a huge ice cream, drove to her house and left it on her doorstep. Then he called from the driveway to tell her to look outside.
“She just beamed when she saw it. I don’t think leaving her a million dollars would have made her happier.”
