It was reported in May 2024 that the China Wildlife Conservation Association (CWCA,中国野生动物保护协会) will send giant pandas Yun Chuan and Xin Bao to the San Diego Zoo in the United States, which is a symbol of a new 10-year period of international conservation partnership. The CWCA has organized experienced caretakers and doctors to go with the pandas to the US. The zoo is getting ready to provide the pandas with a larger and more comfortable living environment. It has also formed a team with special skills related with panda care, daily nursing, and scientific research.
The cooperation (合作) between the CWCA and the San Diego Zoo dates back to 1996 when Bai Yun and Shi Shi became the first pair of pandas to live in the zoo.

Over the past twenty years, the two sides have cooperated and solved many technical problems, including important discoveries in key areas like panda raising.
Since the 1990s, China has cooperated on giant panda conservation with 20 countries. “International cooperation in fields such as disease prevention and control, treatment, and wild training and reintroduction to the wild, has achieved good results. Giant pandas will facilitate communication between peoples and let people around the world know China better,” said Li, the leader of the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.
“Scientific and educational outreach (延伸服务) also serves as a key role in international giant panda exchanges, allowing more people to understand giant pandas, which provides very good support for our efforts in protecting wild giant pandas,” Li said.

You may have a house robot that can do housework for you. But is it so smart? Meet Laura, a robot in the National Library in Madrid, Spain, copying out the old books and writings in its collection. See Aurora, a headless dog-sized robot used to keep birds and other animals away at an Alaskan airport. Watch another 1.8 meter-tall legless robot called EveR6, waving its arms to guide musicians through a performance.
Those robots above require artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能). AI is a computer system (系统) that can understand languages, make decisions and solve problems. AI can be taught skills using a process called machine learning. Humans give AI information such as books, photos or videos to train it. The more information it studies, the better it can do its job.
________. For example, when you watch TV, AI is watching you. It’ll know what your favorite is and suggest similar ones. In hospitals, AI is very good at suggesting treatments and can even invent new medicines. To cut down food waste, some schools introduce online systems for the students to choose meals ahead of time. In cities, AI is used to watch out for cars that make black smoke. It works together with the police and transportation teams to stop them and keep the air clean. AI can help us fight climate (气候) change by finding clever ways to reduce energy use.
Some people worry that AI will take away a large number of jobs and also fear that AI could develop out of our control and bring danger to humans. However, AI is expected to be a more powerful production tool that will help humans achieve more in less time. It is believed that the flying car will be made to offer an easier way out of the morning traffic jam (交通堵塞). Humans imagine AI might even find a way to solve the problems of our energy needs completely. Anyway, there is still a long journey for humans and AI.
21. In which pictures can we see Aurora and EveR6?
A. a, c B. b, d C. b, c D. a, d
22. What BIG question does paragraph 2 answer?

A. AI will be developed rapidly B. Humans depend too much on AI
C. Humans wonder if AI could think D. AI has become part of daily life
24. In the future, AI is expected to be able to ________.
A. suggest TV programs B. cut down food waste
C. invent new medicines D. help produce enough energy
25. What would the author write about after the last paragraph?
A. The end of AI. B. The history of AI.
C The way to get along with AI. D. The skill of making AI robots.
阅读以下短文。从下列六个句子中选出五个还原到短文中,使其意思完整、连贯。
Why do we go to zoos? Millions of people around the world visit zoos each year, but the reason is hard to explain.___26___ But the animals they see in zoos are little like the toys, cartoons, and decorations that fill their homes. For such children, meeting with real animals can be confusing, even upsetting.
The great interest that children have in animals today might lead one to suppose that this has always been the case. ___27___ That was also when zoos became an important part of middle-class life.
___28___ They lived together with our ancestors (祖先) in a shared natural environment. In the Industrial Era, the human domination (支配) of animals could be seen in the popularity of real-looking animal toys. Children rode rocking-horses that had realistic features, and they slept with bears, tigers, and rabbits that looked and felt almost real. The Twentieth Century marked a further development—the change of animals into people.
This was the age of Babar the Elephant, Hello Kitty, and the Lion King. Parents and children had previously wanted animals that looked like animals. ___29___
In a zoo they hope to see the living breathing versions of their character friends.They find instead unfamiliar creatures who cannot speak, smile or interact with them. For this reason, a visit to the zoo can be disappointing for children today. ___30___ Meeting real animals reminds us forcefully of the boundary (界限) between imagination and reality. When we visit animals in a zoo, perhaps we will recall our true relationship not only to animals but to the entire world.
A. Animals are the best friends of the human beings.
B. Many of those visitors are children, whose lives are already surrounded by animals’ images.
C. Perhaps that disappointment is the best gift a zoo can offer.
D. But now they want animals that look and act like humans.
E. Yet, it was not until the Industrial Era that animals became part of childhood.
F. In prehistoric times, there had been no zoos, as animals were a real part of the human world.

Some people worry that AI will take away a large number of jobs and also fear that AI could develop out of our control and bring danger to humans. However, AI is expected to be a more powerful production tool that will help humans achieve more in less time. It is believed that the flying car will be made to offer an easier way out of the morning traffic jam (交通堵塞). Humans imagine AI might even find a way to solve the problems of our energy needs completely. Anyway, there is still a long journey for humans and AI.

Why do we go to zoos? Millions of people around the world visit zoos each year, but the reason is hard to explain.___26___ But the animals they see in zoos are little like the toys, cartoons, and decorations that fill their homes. For such children, meeting with real animals can be confusing, even upsetting.
The great interest that children have in animals today might lead one to suppose that this has always been the case. ___27___ That was also when zoos became an important part of middle-class life.
___28___ They lived together with our ancestors (祖先) in a shared natural environment. In the Industrial Era, the human domination (支配) of animals could be seen in the popularity of real-looking animal toys. Children rode rocking-horses that had realistic features, and they slept with bears, tigers, and rabbits that looked and felt almost real. The Twentieth Century marked a further development—the change of animals into people.
This was the age of Babar the Elephant, Hello Kitty, and the Lion King. Parents and children had previously wanted animals that looked like animals. ___29___
In a zoo they hope to see the living breathing versions of their character friends.They find instead unfamiliar creatures who cannot speak, smile or interact with them. For this reason, a visit to the zoo can be disappointing for children today. ___30___ Meeting real animals reminds us forcefully of the boundary (界限) between imagination and reality. When we visit animals in a zoo, perhaps we will recall our true relationship not only to animals but to the entire world.
A. Animals are the best friends of the human beings.
B. Many of those visitors are children, whose lives are already surrounded by animals’ images.
C Perhaps that disappointment is the best gift a zoo can offer.
D But now they want animals that look and act like humans.
E. Yet, it was not until the Industrial Era that animals became part of childhood.
F. In prehistoric times, there had been no zoos, as animals were a real part of the human world.

句意:一些科学家相信它们甚至能告诉其他的乌鸦一个人是否友好。根据“is”可知宾语从句的主语是单数概念,表达泛指“一个人”,“human”是辅音音素开始的单词,用不定冠词“a”。故填a。
【43题详解】
句意:自从二十年前,一些科学家已经研究发现和人相比,乌鸦是多么的聪明。根据“Since twenty years ago”可知句子是现在完成时,句子主语“scientists”是复数概念,表达“研究”,动词用“have studied”。故填have studied。
【44题详解】
句意:他们发现乌鸦能解决一个难题,就像一个七岁大的孩子一样好。表达“和……
一样……”,用“as 形容词/副词 as”的结构。动词“solve”用副词修饰,用“good”的副词形式“well”。故填well。
