Venice This iconic city is sinking rapidly. The canals that make up the streets of Venice rise 2mm every year, making relics of history go under the surface of water and destroying architecture. Experts warn that without intervention(干预), this city will disappear back into the water at an even faster rate, consumed by rising sea level from melting polar ice caps. Machu Picchu These iconic ruins have drawn adventurous tourists into the mountains of South America.The forces of natural erosion(侵蚀)have been accelerated by tourism and this landmark faces severe influence from increasing foot traffic. The Peruvian government recently suggested a cable car that would cut out the intense hike up to the ruins, making the site instantly accessible to millions but the future of Machu Picchu remains uncertain. Glacier National park Perhaps you've heard that the ice caps are melting. But nowhere is more apparent in the United States than in Glacier National Park.Estimates indicate that the glaciers that are part of the beauty of this national landmark will disappear entirely in the next two decades. The Great Barrier Reef Hidden from view beneath the waves, the Great Barrier Reef has been rapidly dying off.

It is a traditional Chinese art form that originated in southern China’s Cantonese culture, and involves music, singing, martial arts, acrobatics and acting. Today it is not only very popular in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hong Kong and Macao, but also performed all around the world. Cantonese opera was originally called Nanxi(Southern opera) in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, and this beautiful art form has pleased audiences for hundreds of years. By absorbing the folk melodies and tunes of Guangdong, and mixing many different opera styles that were popular at the time, Cantonese opera developed during the 16th century. With the unique combination of these different influences, Nanxi was developed into Cantonese opera. Cantonese opera is a wonderful mix of storytelling, music and fighting. The performances are often based on well-known traditional stories or events from Chinese history. The colourful sets serve as the background for these performances and actors appear on stage with similarly colourful face paint. Fights are a common and important part of many shows with actors performing difficult and exciting martial arts movements. In the beginning, Cantonese opera costumes reflected the clothing style of the Ming Dynasty. Later, as Peking opera became increasingly popular, it was strongly influenced by Peking opera costumes. Costumes were made of cloth and later some accessories(配饰)were added. Different roles require different costumes. For example, an actor playing the Xiaosheng, a very gentle role, wears a costume with long sleeves; while the Xiaowu, an acting role, demands a costume with short sleeves so as to act easily. Many well-known operas are still performed today, such as The Purple Hairpin and Rejunenation of the Red Plum Flower, which originated in the Yuan Dynasty. Other Cantonese operas are adapted from western movies or novels. Generally, Cantonese opera performers have to master four skills: singing, acting movement, delivery of speeches, and martial gymnastic skills. Because of its long tradition and its importance in the development of Chinese arts and culture, Cantonese opera was included on the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage list in 2009. 24．Which of the following is NOT the factor in Cantonese opera’s development? A．Tunes of Guangdong. B．Different opera styles. C．A variety of dialects. D．Folk melodies. 25．What do we know about Cantonese opera costumes? A．They were originally a reflection of clothing style of Yuan Dynasty. B．They look more beautiful when they are made with more accessories. C．They were designed based on Peking opera costumes. D．Performers choose different costumes according to the roles they play. 26．What makes Cantonese opera an intangible cultural heritage? A．Its exciting movements and difficult performances. B．Its popularity and development. C．Its colorful sets and face paint. D．Its history and influence. 27．What’s the purpose of the author in writing the passage? A．To prove that Cantonese opera is the most popular opera. B．To inform the readers of the development of Cantonese opera. C．To share the author’s experience of seeing a well-known Cantonese opera. D．To make a comparison between Cantonese opera and Peking opera. C South Korea has the biggest rate of Internet addiction in the world and it is increasingly the country’s children who are spending every waking moment immersing themselves in fantasy role plays or gaming In the remote mountains of South Korea, teenage Internet addicts are turning up for a 12-day boot camp. Kyle Won’s addiction is out of control. He spends 10 hours a day on the Internet. Now Kyle’s smartphone is taken away. The teachers here do what they can to get them socializing again; for many, the only friends they have had are online. “I have relationships on the Internet and a real distance has gown with my real-life friends and I know it’s not good,” Kyle said. The teachers show them other possibilities and bring back dreams and hopes that have been buried by their addictions. “We teach them methods of managing their desire to use the Internet so that they can continue to use it when they go back home,” Shim Yong-school, a teacher here, said. After just two days Kyle said It was helpful. He’s set a good example to others though he hasn’t reached the goal completely.

D ChatGPT, designed by OpenAI to carry on conversations just like humans, has become a viral excitement. The AI-powered tool went from zero to a million users in just five days! Its ability to provide in-depth answers to user questions has even drawn the attention of distinguished technology companies. The intelligent robot understands what the user says or types and then responds in a way that makes sense. Its vast body of knowledge has been gathered from the internet and archived books. It is further trained by humans. This makes ChatGPT a useful tool for researching almost any topic. “We have a lot of information on the internet, but you normally have to Google it, then read it and then do something with it,” says Ricardo, chief science officer and co-founder of AI company Erudit. “Now you’ll have this resource that can process the whole internet and all of the information it contains for you to answer your question.” ChatGPT cannot think on its own. It depends on the information that it has been trained on. As a result, the AI tool works well for things that have accurate data available. However, when unsure, ChatGPT can get creative and flow out incorrect responses. OpenAI cautions users to check the information no matter how logical it sounds. Also, ChatGPT has only been trained with information till 2021. Hence, it cannot be relied upon for anything that happened after that. Experts believe ChatGPT has limitless potential to solve real-world problems. It can translate long texts into different languages, create content on almost any topic, and even summarize books. However, ChatGPT has received mixed reactions from educators. Some believe it could serve as a valuable tool to help build literacy skills in the classroom. It could also be used to teach students difficult science or math concepts. But other educators think ChatGPT will encourage students to cheat. They fear this will prevent them from building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As a result, many districts are starting to ban its use in schools. 32．What is the unique feature of ChatGPT? A．It has artificial intelligence. B．It can answer users’ questions. C．It has the largest number of users. D．It can engage in meaningful conversations. 33．What makes ChatGPT helpful to research various topics? A．Its capability of information processing. B．Its accurate information. C．Its availability of up-to-date data. D．Its vast body of questions. 34．Why do ChatGPT users have to be cautious when using it? A．ChatGPT is unable to think itself. B．ChatGPT lacks creativity. C．ChatGPT offers illogical information. D．ChatGPT is not properly trained. 35．What is the author’s attitude towards ChatGPT? A．Favorable. B．Disapproving. C．Objective. D．Intolerant. 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。 Chinese culture values family bonds (纽带) very much. Family members don’t just gather during the holidays, in fact they often live under one roof all year round. Different cultures have different family values. 36 In most East Asian cultures, extended families (大家庭) are common. 37 According to the Atlantic, 90 percent of children in Shanghai and 70 percent of children in Beijing were cared for by their grandparents. Chinese people believe that “a grandparent is a treasure to their family”. In many Western countries, most families are nuclear families (小家庭). These are only made up of children and their parents. Additionally, the duties parents have toward their children can also differ. 38 It’s normal for parents to pay for their children’s college, help them find a job, or buy them an apartment. Chinese adults also follow their parents’ opinions when making major life decisions, more often than not. In most Western countries, however, kids usually move out of the house after they turn 18. 39 Also, if they choose to keep living with their parents after becoming an adult, it can be seen by some as a failure on their part. While the East cares more about close family bonds, the West values privacy and independence. 40 Families will always be a source of love, warmth, and care for people around the world. A．But in the end, home is best — east or west. B．Nuclear families are the most common type in China. C．Both Easterners and Westerners value quality family time. D．Families in the east and west are very different from each other. E．These families have three or even four generations living together.

The Students’ Union 读后续写: I took my sister home and continued my search alone. Carrying the signs made by my mother, I kept posting them. In the meantime, whenever there were people passing by, I would ask if they had met such a dog. I even knocked from door to door, asking if they had seen it. No luck. Nobody claimed to have spotted our dog. What if I had taken the dog out for a walk? Tears of regret welled up in my eyes. As the darkness fell, I decided to come back home to check if anybody had called. When I returned, my mother was waiting for me, smiling broadly. There, behind my mother, was our lovely dog looking up at me eagerly. Upon seeing me, it raced towards me. I couldn’t hold my tears. “It just came back by itself,” my mother said gently. Hugging the dog with relief, I apologized to my mother sincerely. “I am sure you have learned your lesson today,” my mother replied in a comforting voice. I played with my sister and the dog again. Despite the freezing weather outside, my heart warmed up. It was on the day that I learned the value of responsibility. 听力材料 Text 1 W: Excuse me, I’m having some trouble with the ATM.

Text 5 W: Have you seen the new books that they got for the science class? They are much better than the new math books. M: Yes, I have. But I actually don’t like them.

Comedy Hour owns comedy clubs in several countries that are run just for people aged 13–20. They’re just as familiar with working in adult comedy clubs as they are working with children. The Comedy Hour company was set up by John Winterson. In fact, his act quickly became so popular that he soon found lots of other comedians who wanted to join his company. If you’re having a party at home, Comedy Hour can come and perform for you there at the party. Your very own comedian will also help you to tell your guests some jokes and silly stories and they can join in, too, if they want. It’ll be fun and very different from any party you’ve ever had before. Here at Comedy Hour, it’s not just about the adults telling jokes. We also offer young people the chance to perform. But we’ve yet to find someone who can do that without preparation, so we’ve set up the world’s first Comedy Classes to teach young people how to tell jokes on stage. At the moment our classes are only monthly, but we’re planning to start a number of others over the coming year. So what are you waiting for? Come and join Comedy Hour. 答案第4页，共9页 答案第5页，共9页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
