Here are the four best travel backpacks on the market. Amazon Basies 70L It's much cheaper than many travel bags on the market and does not sacrifice any of the practical uses or space that comes with more expensive bags. The bag may not be as huxury as some of the more high-end bags, but its simple style lets you focus on the main thing you need to focus on when traveling: the moment. Eurohike Nepal 65L The Eurohike Backpack is a great choice because of how adaptable it is. Besides having a great amount of storage, it comes with an internal security pocket.

Whether you're visiting Switzerland in a thick, wool coat or the south of France in shorts and a T-shirt: the bag will match your look.

A. Amazon Basics 70L B. Eurohike Nepal 65L C. Mountain Warehouse Tor 65L D. Osprey Europe Farpoint 70L B I started to imagine how I'd lead my own tour. Working as a guard at the Guggenheim, I first liked reading the wall text-the paragraph-long explanation on the wall beside many of the artworks. Occasionally it's helpful and for years I thought it was downright rude when museums and galleries didn't labcl each work. But now, more often than not, I wanted to tear all the labels down. The wall text stavs just to the side of art. like the answer key a the bottom of a word search, its definitive tone sending the message that there's only one right answer to the art. I realized that art historians could be unreliable narrators (叙述者). The Richard Serra sculpture "Tearing Lead." consisting of wrinkled lead (铅), took on a different look every time it was exhibited. Guards were given a board with the original photo of the sculpture and instructions "Please indicate where the piece was touched," so an assistant could reposition the sculpture to match the picture. But an assistant I talked with told me that the sculpture was meant to have the metal pieces arranged haphazardly (杂乱.地). The work looks different every time it's shown -not that you'd know it from the wall text Therefore, I insist that you don't look at the little label beside each artwork. When I guarded a Brancus sculpture, I tried to stand in front of the wall label so people couldn't see it, and I heard their interpretations go wild. They saw a finger, a woman giving birth, a graph, a Kurosawa character, a dolphin, a nose, a fish If I learned one thing as a guard, it's that sometimes being forced to look at an artwork, even when you don't want to, is life-changing. Fight the urge to see what you expect to be there: focus instead on what is there I'm not concerned with whether you think it's good. Just watch the thing in front of you 24. What can we learn about the author from paragraph 1? A. He is forming his own judgement B. He likes traveling with his friends. C. He wants to make his voice heard. D. He writes explanations for artworks 25. What is the author's purpose in mentioning "Tearing Lead"? A. To introduce a special assistant. B. To prove that wall texts can be wrong C. To call for protection of artworks on show. 0 D. To show how art historians describe works 26. Why did the author stand in front of the label on the wall? A. To prevent the visitors getting closer to the sculpture B. To make visitors have a better view of the sculpture C. To push the visitors to appreciate on their own. D. To interact with the visitors in a fun way 27. What is the best title for the text? A. How I Rose from a Museum Guard to an Art Expert B.: What Categories of Artworks Museums Like Showing C. How Working in a Museum Makes Me Have a Life Purpose D. What Being a Museum Guard Taught Me about Looking at Art C "I am not delusional." declares Dr. Li Ming, after treating a patient with traditional Chinese acupuncture."I am pioneering a new frontier." Despite the skepticism from some peers, Dr. Li remains undeterred(不灰心丧气 的) by their occasional ridicule. He stands among a select group of Chinese medical practitioners who are embracing an integrative approach to healing-melding the wisdom of ancient Chinese medicine with modern medical science. Dr. Li, a graduate of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, initially pursued a more conventional path in his medical career. His journey towards alternative therapies began two decades ago when he suffered from severe back pain. Conventional treatments offered him little relief. It was through acupuncture, an age-old Chinese : medical technique, that he found remarkable improvement after just a few sessions. This personal experience inspired him to explore its potential for his patients. After years of dedicated study and practice, he started integrating these methods into his treatments Consider the case of Zhang Wei's father, who suffered from chronic migraines(偏头痛). Zhang was at the brink of despair, ready to resign to the relentless pain, but Dr. Li's integrative approach not only alleviated his symptoms but also significantly improved his auality of life. Similarly, Chen Yu recounts how her mother, after a stroke, regained mobility and speech function following a series of acupuncture sessions. Dr. Li is convinced that the integrative approach to acupuncture will gain broader acceptance, and historical trends seem to support his optimism: Since the establishment of the Chinese A.ssociation for Integrative Medicine in 19oo, its membership has surged from a handful to thousands. "The profound effectiveness of this integrative practice sometimes astonishes even me," Dr. Li admits. "I am committed to exploring every avenue to aid my patients. That is the essence of my vocation." 28. What is the opinion of some of Dr. Li's colleagues regarding his methods? A. They consider him odd B. They perceive him as overly strict C. They admire his courage D. They find him impolite 29. What motivated Dr. Li to explore acupuncture for his patients? A. His academic training in acupuncture. B. The influence of a fellow practitioner C. His personal benefits from acupuncture. D. A desire to reduce medical costs for patients 30. What is the main focus of paragraph 3? A. The' procedural details of acupuncture treatment. B. The difficulties involved in a medical practitioner's work. C. The rarity of certain diseases in patients. D. The tangible benefits of integrative medicine 31. Why does the author refer to the Chinese Association for Integrative Medicine? A. To yalidate Dr. Li's perspective B. To highlight the association's significance C. To commend the dedication of medical practitioners. D. To promote the cause of patient advocacy. D Teachers across America: are struggling to decide whether to view artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT as friends or enemies in the classroom. Our study on whether AI affects student creativity shows that the answer isn't always simple In the study, we asked college students to brainstorm -- without technology - all the ways a paper clip car be used. A month later, we asked them to do the same, but using ChatGPT. We found that AI can be a usefu brainstorming tool, quickly generating ideas that can spark creative exploration. But there are also potential negative effects on students' creative thinking skills and self-confidence. While students reported that it was helpful to "have another brain", they also felt that using AL was "the easy way out" and didn't allow them to think on their own. The results call for a thoughtful approach to using AI in classrooms and striking a balance that inspires students' creativity while utilizing AI's capabilities. The good news is that the students in our study generated more diverse and detailed ideas when using AI. They found that AI was useful for kick-starting brainstorming sessions. When it comes to brainstorming with AI, some students voiced concerns about over-reliance on the technology, fearing it might hurt their own thoughts and, consequently, confidence in their creative abilities. Some students reported a "fixation of the mind", meaning that once they saw the AI's ideas, they had a hard time coming up with their own. Some students aIso questioned the originality of ideas generated by AL. Our research noted that 。 while using ChatGPT improved students' creative output individually, the AI's ideas tended to be repetitive overall. The study results indicate that allowing students to practice creativity independently first will strengther their belief in themselves and their abilities. Once they complete this, AI can be useful in furthering their learning much like teaching long division to students before introducing a calculator. That's to say, teaching students to be creative thinkers rather than rely on AI for answers is the key to answering the question mentioned above 32. Why were the students required to use ChatGPT after a month in the study A. To clarify a concept. B. To make a comparison. C. To explain a definition D. To present an argument 33. What does the underlined word "utilizing" in paragraph 3 mean? A. Learning. B. Designing C. Taking advantage of D. Having control of. 34. What does paragraph 4 focus on concerning AI? A. Its negative aspects B. Its limited creativity C. Its reliable originality D. Its potential development 35. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph? A. The future of AI use is uncertain. B. Traditional teaching still has a place C. AI's capabilities are unguestionable D. Human creativity should come first 第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine (ATM? They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank _36_ Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance. It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England. which proved successful. 37 The first cash machine relied on customers use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside. _38__ The banks' principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 197Os, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by 70 percent Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed security and trust. 39 For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near publio transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines. 4o__. Public acceptance of deposits (存款) by machine was significantly slower than customers' usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general. it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction (交 易)for deposits. A. Location, in particular, was a key factor B. His cash machine, however, didn't prove durable C. The device was relatively primitive, at least by today's standards D. However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions E. An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer idantification 5 F. Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions G. Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions(拥护者) of the cash machine 第三部分 语言运用(共三节,满分30分) 第一节(共10小题:每小题1分,满分10分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Shane Porter knew clearly that he was dying of cancer when he one day came home with a rusty (生锈的) 1969 Jeepster Commando.

The temperature was below zero so I rushed into the subway station, hoping to get warm Warmth came to my body as I settled onto a bench with a cup of hot coffee, Now I was ready to relax and do some serious people-watching. I noticed a homeless man seated nearby. The pleasant smell of delicious food from the subway food court(美食广场) was attracting me to consider an early dinner.

I wondered how long it had been since he had eaten ariything, expecting he would approach me for some food. But he never did. My head and heart were battling it out: the former telling me to mind my own business, and the latter urging me to make an immediate trip to the fooc court for him. While this inner debate was fierce, a well-dressed young couple suddenly approached. "Excuse me, sir,"began the husband. "We just finished eating and our appetite wasn't as big as we thought.
