There are several kinds of pre-made foods: ready-to-eat food, such as canned food or cooked food in packages, and ready-to-heat or ready-to-cook food. These foods usually require heating or cooking first before being served. Many people think that pre-made foods are less healthy because they usually need to be kept in fridges. “In fact, freezing itself does not cause nutrition (营养) loss,” Liu Junya, a 33-year-old professor in diet in Beijing said. “But nutrition loss does happen when we heat or fry the food. Vitamins B and C in meat and vegetables can be lost during that process. By being heated or cooked twice or party pre-made foods can be less nutritious than freshly prepared and cooked foods,” Liu said. “Besides, many pre-made food companies put the taste of food ahead of nutrition,” said Liu. This leads to higher level of salt and sugar in the food and pay cause serious health problems in the long term. Additives (添加剂) are another problem related to pre-made foods. They are only used to improve the flavor of the food, increase its shelf life, and color it. In China, food industry has already had modern technology to keep pre-made kids without any additives. But it’s necessary that customers only buy pre-made books from big and qualified (有资质的) food companies or supermarkets. It is hoped that laws on pre-made meals can ensure better nutrition and hygiene (卫生). “In this way we hope pre-made meals will be accepted by more. But at present, no one can tell,” Liu said. 1．In which picture we can’t see the pre-made meals? A． B． C． D． 2．What does the underlined word “ensure” probably mean in Paragraph 5? A．Make sure of. B．Get out of. C．Have to do with. D．Be known for. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Additives are good for food industry and our health. B．Food usually lose nutrition when it is kept in fridges. C．For health, nutrition is more important than the taste of the food. D．Only big food companies or supermarkets serve pre-made foods. 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．In China, people don’t use additives. B．Many people think pre-made meals are healthier. C．People worry about teenagers’ health because of pre-made meals. D．Pre-made meals are popular and accepted by people now. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．How to Make Pre-made Meals B．Are Pre-made Meals Healthy Enough? C．Pre-made Meals Are Healthy D．Pre-made Meals Are Popular 2 （2024·福建莆田·一模）Can plants talk? Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked !” When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Com and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi (霉菌). It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals. to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves. 6．What will plants do when they are attacked by insects? A．They will kill the insects by themselves. B．They will send out signals to ask for help. C．They will control the wasps to kill the insects. D．They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help. 7．How are the wood wide web linked by fungi? A．By making noises with their roots. B．By spreading chemicals to each other. C．By sharing food and information with each other. D．By connecting the roots of different plants to each other. 8．The last paragraph’ is written to ______. A．encourage people to make further study. B．inspire people to communicate with plants C．call on people to protect the plants on Earth D．praise scientists for their great achievements 9．What is the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 10．What is the text mainly about? A．The secret language of plants. B．The living conditions of plants. C．The functions of plant warning system. D．The importance of the plant warning system. 3 （2024·河南南阳·三模）Scientists have developed a way to read minds, translating unspoken thoughts into written words. It’s the first time that it’s been done without having to put anything into the brain. They used AI(artificial intelligence). It is the name of a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence. Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器). The machine can see where blood runs, which shows the parts of the brain that are the most active. People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned. The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard. After that, each person was asked to think of a story, and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened. The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率), although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns, such as he or she, her or him. For example, it turned “I don’t have my driving license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet”. It could usually understand the meaning of what some one was thinking rather than the exact words. The AI was personalized, so when it had learnt from one person but it was tested on another, it couldn’t understand their thoughts. The scientists who have been working on the technology for 15 years say they understand the risks of it being used badly. Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper, “We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to, and that can help them.” The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions, who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak, to communicate once again. 11．What is “AI”? A．A computer. B．A computer system. C．The brain. D．The minds. 12．What is Paragraph 2 mainly talking about? A．The results of the experiment. B．The opinions about the experiment. C．The process of the experiment. D．The difficulties with the experiment. 13．How does the writer tell us the results of the experiment in Paragraph 3? A．By listing facts. B．By telling a story. C．By making a conversation. D．By giving examples and numbers. 14．What can we know from the passage? A．There are some risks of using the way to read minds. B．People taking part in the experiment watched TV for 16 hours. C．Scientists are sure that these types of technologies can help the disabled. D．The AI could understand the exact words of what people thought completely. 15．What may be a proper title for the passage? A．The Importance of Human Brains B．The High Risks of Using AI C．The Ways of Improving Technology D．The AI Mind-Reading Technology 4 （2024·福建莆田·一模）Livestreaming (直播) is very popular these days, but have you watched livestreaming shows given by virtual hosts (虚拟主播)? They look like real people, but in fact, they’re just digital characters created by AI companies. Xmov is such an AI company in China. Set up in 2018, it has created lots of great digital humans. People talked about the company when it presented its latest high-technology products to more than 300 guests at a launch event in Shanghai last year. The company is the first in China to create the virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides and so on. It will not only reshapes (重塑) many industries, but also allow human workers to put more energy into creative work instead of doing ______ tasks. The AI technology is fantastic without doubt. But it can’t completely take humans’ place. For example, it will be difficult for digital humans to build trust with customers like real people.

It has finished its first international manned deep-diving (载人深潜) scientific research task in the Pacific Ocean with the Chinese scientific research ship—Tansuo 1. The ship returned to the city of Sanya, South China’s Hainan Province on March 11th, 2023. It had travelled for 157 days. The ship covered more than 22,000 nautical miles (海里) and finished 63 successful deep dives. Four dives even exceeded a depth of 10,000 meters and the deepest dive reached a depth of 10,010.9 meters into the sea. According to Xinhua, the development of the Chinese-built Striver began in 2016 and then set a national record by diving to a depth of 10,909 meters in November 2020. The journey included 10 organizations from home and abroad. Among them, there were two great people. Deng Yuqing, a Chinese researcher, together with Kareen Schnabel, a scientist from New Zealand, became the first two women who had reached the deepest point of the Kermadec Trench. The team also reached the bottom of two abysses (深渊), one of which was the Diamantina Trench in the south-eastern Indian Ocean, marking the first-ever such journey in human history. Researchers collected samples (样品) of things in the abysses like rocks and water. These samples will provide important support for the understanding of how the lives in the abysses develop and grow.

These planets have the correct temperature for liquid water. While no one knows what alien life would look like, if it is anything like life on earth, it would need water to keep alive. According to the research, there are nearly 2 billion habitable planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, which is just one of 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the universe. The earth was formed 9 billion years after the Big Bang. Many of the planets in the Milky Way were formed millions and some even billions of years before the earth. If intelligent life had existed on any of these planets, they would be much more developed than humans. With that much time to develop the technology for space travel, we should have been visited by aliens many times. So where is everyone? Some people believe that aliens have visited earth many times, and some governments of the world might have known very well. some believe that we have also been visited many times in the ancient past. They point to the Egyptian pyramids or the huge heads of Easter Island. They say that there was no way that ancient humans were able to create these structures without alien assistance. According to Harvard professor Avi Loeb, . For example, in 2017, a cigar-shaped object came within 33 million km of the earth as it passed through our solar system. It was named Oumuamua, which means “messenger from the distant past reaching out to us” in Hawaiian. Loeb says that its unusual shape and the fact that it sped up as it left our solar system sets it apart from anything else we’ve seen. He thinks it was a probe sent by an alien civilization. Jackie Fairey, says everyone should have reservation about this. She is one of many scientists who say there are more reasonable explanations for Oumuamua. That hasn’t stopped Professor Loeb. He has written a new book on Oumuamua called Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth. 26．According to the passage, if there were aliens, they ________. A．could be similar to humans on the earth B．must help build the Great Wall C．would be smarter than humans on the earth D．have a shorter history than humans 27．Which of the following can be put into the blank ________ in the passage? A．we hasn’t been visited by aliens for we got nothing from the universe B．we not only have been visited by aliens, but also have evidence C．no one could be sure about whether the evidence we’ve got is true D．all of researchers doubt about the fact that we have been visited 28．From the passage, we can infer that ________. A．there are fewer than 100 billion habitable planets in the universe B．some aliens did actually, and on the earth in ancient times C．some governments received information from the oumuamua D．scientists Leob doesn’t agree with the idea that Fairey holds 29．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Where are all the aliens? B．When will the aliens visit us? C．Oumuamua: Have you ever been here? D．How many habitable planets are there? 7 （2024·河北石家庄·二模）When you open a map on your phone, you might think it is guided by the Global Positioning System (GPS) without thinking twice. However, nowadays, most of this service in China uses the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS，北斗卫星导航系统). China started to build the BDS 30 years ago. Back in 1978, the US already started providing navigation services with its GPS. However, relying on a navigation system from another country is unsafe. In 1994, China started to create its own navigation system, Beidou. Named after the Big Dipper constellation (北斗七星), which has guided people for centuries, the mission of the BDS was to make sure China could navigate the future on its own terms. In 2020, after over 20 years of hard work, Beidou completed its global network. The BDS became the fourth global navigation system after the GPS of the United States, Galileo of the European Union and GLONASS of Russia. The BDS is the first navigation satellite system to provide a global short message communication service. It means you can text others in places without phone signal (信号) or internet . For example, in February 2023,a hiker got lost in heavy snow in Inner Mongolia. He sent a text message using the BDS-powered chip in his phone and got rescued in time. Moreover, the Beidou system plays an important role in disaster prevention and response (响应). Rescuers (救援人员) can communicate through the BDS quickly and clearly. It can also helpfarmers plant their crops better. Wherever you are in the world, the BDS can help guide your way. As of 2023, it had provided service for over 120 countries and regions. “By 2035, China will build a positioning, navigation and timing system with the BDS at its core to provide more smart services,” Ran Chengqi, director general of the China Satellite Navigation Office, said at a news meeting in 2018． 30．When did the BDS become the fourth global navigation system? A．1978. B．1994. C．2020. D．2023. 31．Which navigation satellite system is the first to provide a global short message communication service? A．The BDS. B．GLONASS. C．Galileo. D．Global Positioning System. 32．What does the underlined word “mission” mean? A．text B．task C．tool D．tour 33．Which of the following can best help us find out the writer’s purpose? A．Does the writer tell us the disadvantages of the BDS? B．Does the writer introduce the BDS to us? C．Does the writer provide us how to use the BDS? D．Does the writer tell us the further development of the BDS? 8 （2024·河北石家庄·一模）A growing number of people are using ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (人工智能) program, to create books for sale. Although sales have been slow, human writers are worried that ChatGPT-created books might hurt the writing and publishing industry. Brett Schickler is a salesman in New York. Until recently, he never imagined he could be a writer. But after learning about the ChatGPT program, Schickler found that he had a good chance. Using the AI software, Schickler created his first book, a 30-page children’s e-book, in a few hours. He sold it online and made less than $100. While that may not sound like much, it is enough to make him want to create other books using the software. There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store that say ChatGPT is a writer or co-writer. And the number is rising daily. Some professional (专业的) writers are becoming worried about the effects that ChatGPT could have on the book publishing industry. Mary Rasenberger is the leader of a writer’s group.

But can we share whatever we like, even with the wrong information? A blogger (博主) said sorry for one video she posted on Feb 16. In the video, she said that she had found a student’s holiday workbook and said the student’s name was Qin Lang. Many Internet users checked the student’s name, grade, and school. They found out the video might not be real. In a new video, the blogger claimed (声称) that she had given the wrong information to protect the student’s privacy (隐私). Some people might think it’s not a big deal if you make a video with the wrong information. They believe that saying sorry will fix everything. But it’s not that simple. According to the Law on Penalties for Administration of Public Security (《治安管理处罚法》), if the videos don’t care about the truth and disturb (扰乱) public order, their makers will get punished (惩罚). It’s important to be creative when people make short videos. However, it is not OK to make up stories and break the law. As early as 2000, the State Council issued the Administrative Measures on Internet Information Services (《互联网信息服务管理办法》). It bans (禁止) spreading rumors and disturbing the social order. If you break the law, you could get in trouble. For example, you might get your social media account (账户) stopped, have to pay fines, get detained (拘留) or even go to jail (监狱). Eleven online celebrities in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture in Sichuan were arrested (逮捕) in 2023 for selling fake products in videos. They got sentences from 8 months to 3 years and 2 months in jail. 38．Why does the writer use the blogger’s event in Paragraph 2? A．Because she was punished by the police.

Recently, the robot Mobile Aloha made by scientists at Stanford University in the US became popular online. In the videos posted on the Internet, we can see the robot preparing dishes on its own, from cutting vegetables to cracking (打破) eggs. It’s also good at watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and washing clothes. It even knows to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting it into a pillowcase (枕套). Sounds good? Well, another video posted by researchers may disappoint some people. Mobile Aloha isn’t good at doing housework on its own. Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human“ teaching” it. So it may break dishes, bump into things and even burn a pot. The robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time, said the team after they did more research on it. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent. In short, it’s far from being perfect. In fact, AI robots are good at tasks such as math and playing chess, but they face challenges when it comes to simpler actions like cleaning or cooking. And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha. For example, if its body doesn’t move correctly, its arm may move too far to pick up a glass. 43．According to the video, the robot Mobile Aloha can’t ______. A．cut vegetables B．water plants C．pet cats D．wash cars 44．For Mobile Aloha, what may happen if the situation changes? A．Burn a bowl of soup. B．Break dishes. C．Work well. D．Shake the pillow. 45．Which of the following is WRONG? A．The robot Mobile Aloha was made by scientists at Stanford University in the US. B．Mobile Aloha isn’t good at doing some tasks on its own. C．AI robots are better at simple tasks like cleaning than difficult ones such as math. D．AI robots still need to be improved. 46．What does the underlined word “bump” mean in Chinese? A．打扫 B．撞击 C．点燃 D．破坏 47．What can be the best title of this passage? A．The invention of Mobile Aloha B．AI robots do well in math C．AI robots will take the place of human D．The advantages and disadvantages of AI robots 11 （2024·江西南昌·二模） Big Data and You Big data（数据） is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns（模式） in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media（媒体）sites, companies, and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go, and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra（额外的）help in class. The teachers can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict（预测）if a baby who was born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think in a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. 48．What does the underlined word “sources” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．Schools that you come from. B．Places that you get things from. C．Answers that you try to look for. D．Companies that you care about. 49．How can schools help students with big data according to Paragraph 2? A．By recording how they get to school. B．By checking if they were born early. C．By finding out who needs extra help. D．By asking what ice cream they buy. 50．Which of the following is TRUE about big data according to the passage? A．It may bring some problems. B．The government can control it very well. C．It is used by hospitals the most. D．People should send photos online to improve it. 51．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 52．What is the writer’s purpose according to the passage? A．To call for good use of big data. B．To teach us how to collect information. C．To ask people to be careful of big data. D．To show what big data is and how it works. 12 （2024·江西上饶·一模）①Most of us cannot imagine modern life without social media (社交媒体). We use it almost every day in order to keep up with what is happening in our friends’ lives, or find out the latest information. Although it has a bad influence if we don’t use it properly, social media has done more good than harm. ②The greatest advantage is that we can connect with people much more easily. We are still able to keep in touch with our friends if they are far away. With social media, friendship goes beyond geography. We are able to find friends old and new. Also, it makes easier for us to make friends, especially for those who are afraid of making friends face to face. Are you shy? If yes, social media has probably helped. ③Social media is also ideal (理想的) for making yourself heard. Anyone with a voice can express it. Anyone with a talent is free to show it. Everyone is the new content creator. Moreover, anyone with a smartphone and the Internet can be a reporter. As a result, it has become much faster to cover the news than ever before. ④Social media, on the other hand, can make us less confident sometimes. A 2021 study published by the Public Library of Science, found that the more a person uses social media, the sadder he feels about his own life. One reason for this is that people around us put colorful information and perfect pictures online in order to show off their best moment. So we often get a distorted sense of how wonderful their lives are compared to our own. ⑤Social media does not cause sadness; it simply provides another tool for us to use. Is it good or bad? Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai says, “What is interesting is the power and influence of social media… We must try to use social media in a good way.” After all, you decide how you use this powerful tool. 53．What is the greatest advantage of social media according to the passage? A．Connecting with people more easily. B．Showing our talents to others. C．Recording the best side of our life. D．Expressing our voices freely. 54．Which of the following is wrong?

There are several kinds of pre-made foods: ready-to-eat food, such as canned food or cooked food in packages, and ready-to-heat or ready-to-cook food. These foods usually require heating or cooking first before being served. Many people think that pre-made foods are less healthy because they usually need to be kept in fridges. “In fact, freezing itself does not cause nutrition (营养) loss,” Liu Junya, a 33-year-old professor in diet in Beijing said. “But nutrition loss does happen when we heat or fry the food. Vitamins B and C in meat and vegetables can be lost during that process. By being heated or cooked twice or party pre-made foods can be less nutritious than freshly prepared and cooked foods,” Liu said. “Besides, many pre-made food companies put the taste of food ahead of nutrition,” said Liu. This leads to higher level of salt and sugar in the food and pay cause serious health problems in the long term. Additives (添加剂) are another problem related to pre-made foods. They are only used to improve the flavor of the food, increase its shelf life, and color it. In China, food industry has already had modern technology to keep pre-made kids without any additives. But it’s necessary that customers only buy pre-made books from big and qualified (有资质的) food companies or supermarkets. It is hoped that laws on pre-made meals can ensure better nutrition and hygiene (卫生). “In this way we hope pre-made meals will be accepted by more. But at present, no one can tell,” Liu said. 1．In which picture we can’t see the pre-made meals? A． B． C． D． 2．What does the underlined word “ensure” probably mean in Paragraph 5? A．Make sure of.

Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked !” When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Com and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi (霉菌). It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals. to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves. 6．What will plants do when they are attacked by insects? A．They will kill the insects by themselves. B．They will send out signals to ask for help. C．They will control the wasps to kill the insects. D．They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help. 7．How are the wood wide web linked by fungi? A．By making noises with their roots. B．By spreading chemicals to each other. C．By sharing food and information with each other. D．By connecting the roots of different plants to each other. 8．The last paragraph’ is written to ______. A．encourage people to make further study.

It’s the first time that it’s been done without having to put anything into the brain. They used AI(artificial intelligence). It is the name of a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence. Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器). The machine can see where blood runs, which shows the parts of the brain that are the most active. People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned. The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard. After that, each person was asked to think of a story, and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened. The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率), although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns, such as he or she, her or him. For example, it turned “I don’t have my driving license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet”. It could usually understand the meaning of what some one was thinking rather than the exact words. The AI was personalized, so when it had learnt from one person but it was tested on another, it couldn’t understand their thoughts. The scientists who have been working on the technology for 15 years say they understand the risks of it being used badly. Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper, “We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to, and that can help them.” The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions, who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak, to communicate once again. 11．What is “AI”?

They look like real people, but in fact, they’re just digital characters created by AI companies. Xmov is such an AI company in China. Set up in 2018, it has created lots of great digital humans. People talked about the company when it presented its latest high-technology products to more than 300 guests at a launch event in Shanghai last year. The company is the first in China to create the virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries.

These planets have the correct temperature for liquid water. While no one knows what alien life would look like, if it is anything like life on earth, it would need water to keep alive. According to the research, there are nearly 2 billion habitable planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, which is just one of 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the universe. The earth was formed 9 billion years after the Big Bang. Many of the planets in the Milky Way were formed millions and some even billions of years before the earth. If intelligent life had existed on any of these planets, they would be much more developed than humans. With that much time to develop the technology for space travel, we should have been visited by aliens many times. So where is everyone? Some people believe that aliens have visited earth many times, and some governments of the world might have known very well. some believe that we have also been visited many times in the ancient past. They point to the Egyptian pyramids or the huge heads of Easter Island. They say that there was no way that ancient humans were able to create these structures without alien assistance. According to Harvard professor Avi Loeb, . For example, in 2017, a cigar-shaped object came within 33 million km of the earth as it passed through our solar system. It was named Oumuamua, which means “messenger from the distant past reaching out to us” in Hawaiian. Loeb says that its unusual shape and the fact that it sped up as it left our solar system sets it apart from anything else we’ve seen. He thinks it was a probe sent by an alien civilization. Jackie Fairey, says everyone should have reservation about this. She is one of many scientists who say there are more reasonable explanations for Oumuamua. That hasn’t stopped Professor Loeb. He has written a new book on Oumuamua called Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth. 26．According to the passage, if there were aliens, they ________.

However, nowadays, most of this service in China uses the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS，北斗卫星导航系统). China started to build the BDS 30 years ago. Back in 1978, the US already started providing navigation services with its GPS. However, relying on a navigation system from another country is unsafe. In 1994, China started to create its own navigation system, Beidou. Named after the Big Dipper constellation (北斗七星), which has guided people for centuries, the mission of the BDS was to make sure China could navigate the future on its own terms. In 2020, after over 20 years of hard work, Beidou completed its global network. The BDS became the fourth global navigation system after the GPS of the United States, Galileo of the European Union and GLONASS of Russia. The BDS is the first navigation satellite system to provide a global short message communication service. It means you can text others in places without phone signal (信号) or internet . For example, in February 2023,a hiker got lost in heavy snow in Inner Mongolia. He sent a text message using the BDS-powered chip in his phone and got rescued in time. Moreover, the Beidou system plays an important role in disaster prevention and response (响应). Rescuers (救援人员) can communicate through the BDS quickly and clearly. It can also helpfarmers plant their crops better. Wherever you are in the world, the BDS can help guide your way. As of 2023, it had provided service for over 120 countries and regions. “By 2035, China will build a positioning, navigation and timing system with the BDS at its core to provide more smart services,” Ran Chengqi, director general of the China Satellite Navigation Office, said at a news meeting in 2018． 30．When did the BDS become the fourth global navigation system?

In the videos posted on the Internet, we can see the robot preparing dishes on its own, from cutting vegetables to cracking (打破) eggs. It’s also good at watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and washing clothes. It even knows to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting it into a pillowcase (枕套). Sounds good? Well, another video posted by researchers may disappoint some people. Mobile Aloha isn’t good at doing housework on its own. Instead, it learns from human actions before doing each kind of housework. When the situation changes, it can’t work well without a human“ teaching” it. So it may break dishes, bump into things and even burn a pot. The robot can successfully move chairs 80 percent of the time, said the team after they did more research on it. For cooking dishes, it’s only 40 percent. In short, it’s far from being perfect. In fact, AI robots are good at tasks such as math and playing chess, but they face challenges when it comes to simpler actions like cleaning or cooking. And it’s the same for Mobile Aloha. For example, if its body doesn’t move correctly, its arm may move too far to pick up a glass. 43．According to the video, the robot Mobile Aloha can’t ______. A．cut vegetables B．water plants C．pet cats D．wash cars 44．For Mobile Aloha, what may happen if the situation changes? A．Burn a bowl of soup. B．Break dishes. C．Work well. D．Shake the pillow. 45．Which of the following is WRONG? A．The robot Mobile Aloha was made by scientists at Stanford University in the US. B．Mobile Aloha isn’t good at doing some tasks on its own. C．AI robots are better at simple tasks like cleaning than difficult ones such as math. D．AI robots still need to be improved. 46．What does the underlined word “bump” mean in Chinese? A．打扫 B．撞击 C．点燃 D．破坏 47．What can be the best title of this passage? A．The invention of Mobile Aloha B．AI robots do well in math C．AI robots will take the place of human D．The advantages and disadvantages of AI robots 11 （2024·江西南昌·二模） Big Data and You Big data（数据） is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns（模式） in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media（媒体）sites, companies, and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go, and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra（额外的）help in class. The teachers can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict（预测）if a baby who was born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think in a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. 48．What does the underlined word “sources” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．Schools that you come from. B．Places that you get things from. C．Answers that you try to look for. D．Companies that you care about. 49．How can schools help students with big data according to Paragraph 2? A．By recording how they get to school. B．By checking if they were born early. C．By finding out who needs extra help. D．By asking what ice cream they buy. 50．Which of the following is TRUE about big data according to the passage? A．It may bring some problems. B．The government can control it very well. C．It is used by hospitals the most. D．People should send photos online to improve it. 51．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 52．What is the writer’s purpose according to the passage? A．To call for good use of big data. B．To teach us how to collect information. C．To ask people to be careful of big data. D．To show what big data is and how it works. 12 （2024·江西上饶·一模）①Most of us cannot imagine modern life without social media (社交媒体). We use it almost every day in order to keep up with what is happening in our friends’ lives, or find out the latest information. Although it has a bad influence if we don’t use it properly, social media has done more good than harm. ②The greatest advantage is that we can connect with people much more easily. We are still able to keep in touch with our friends if they are far away. With social media, friendship goes beyond geography. We are able to find friends old and new. Also, it makes easier for us to make friends, especially for those who are afraid of making friends face to face. Are you shy? If yes, social media has probably helped. ③Social media is also ideal (理想的) for making yourself heard. Anyone with a voice can express it. Anyone with a talent is free to show it. Everyone is the new content creator. Moreover, anyone with a smartphone and the Internet can be a reporter. As a result, it has become much faster to cover the news than ever before. ④Social media, on the other hand, can make us less confident sometimes. A 2021 study published by the Public Library of Science, found that the more a person uses social media, the sadder he feels about his own life. One reason for this is that people around us put colorful information and perfect pictures online in order to show off their best moment. So we often get a distorted sense of how wonderful their lives are compared to our own. ⑤Social media does not cause sadness; it simply provides another tool for us to use. Is it good or bad? Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai says, “What is interesting is the power and influence of social media… We must try to use social media in a good way.” After all, you decide how you use this powerful tool. 53．What is the greatest advantage of social media according to the passage? A．Connecting with people more easily. B．Showing our talents to others. C．Recording the best side of our life. D．Expressing our voices freely. 54．Which of the following is wrong? A．We are able to keep in touch with our friends if they are far away. B．Anyone with a smartphone and the Internet can be a reporter. C．Social media has no bad influence. D．Social media can make us less confident sometimes. 55．Which picture shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 56．Why does a social media player may feel sadder about the real life? A．Because we can connect with people much more easily. B．Because it simply provides another tool for us to use. C．Because he is afraid of making friends face to face. D．Because he often gets a distorted sense of other’s life. 57．Why is social media ideal for making yourself heard? A．Anyone with a voice can express it. B．Anyone with a talent is free to show it.
