C ChatGPT is a smart AI chatbot (聊天机器人) tool. It is developed by US company OpenAI. It is very popular all over the world. It is reported that over 89 percent of students have used ChatGPT to help with their homework. You can ask it to write stories and e-mails, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France don’t use ChatGPT. They are afraid that ChatGPT could make it easier for students to cheat (欺骗) on homework. Some people also worry that ChatGPT could be used to give wrong information. However, not all schools say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian schools are making decisions on its use for both students and teachers. They will not stop the use of ChatGPT. Bhaskar Vira, a teacher at the school in Cambridge, said that not using ChatGPT is not clever. “We have to know that people will get used to an AI tool in our learning, teaching and examinations,” he told a school newspaper. 43.

Schools in the US D Are you the kind of person who always keeps a piece of chocolate nearby? Perhaps you feel weak or sleepy without your sweets. If so, you may have a problem that millions of others have: sugar addiction (瘾). Addiction means you use a thing or do an activity over and over again, although that’s bad for you. Playing computer games, drinking and eating are examples of activities that can develop into addiction. There are four stages (阶段) of sugar addiction. Stage one begins with a strong need for something sweet. In stage two even after the sugar has been eaten, the need remains and grows. You must eat more sugar to feel happy. In stage three, when you don’t eat the sugar you want, you feel bad. It doesn’t stop there. You also have some physical problems like headaches. Overtime, sugar addiction will reach stage four. This stage shows the worst health impacts (影响) of sugar addiction. Breaking sugar addiction can be difficult, but it is important for your health. There are a few things to keep in mind. It’s simple advice you probably have heard before. Eat three meals a day, get enough sleep, and exercise often. Choose healthy sweets, like fruit. And remember: don’t push yourself too hard. 46. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What impact addiction has. B. How many stages addiction has. C. How one avoids addiction. D. What addiction is. 47. What advice does the writer give to break sugar addiction? ①Exercise often. ②Get enough sleep. ③Have three meals every day. ④Say no to all sweets. A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④ 48. In which part of a magazine can we read the text? A. Culture. B. Science. C. Health. D. Food. E Exploring (探索) space is important because it helps us learn more about other planets and stars. We can learn how they work and what they are made of so that we can understand more about the earth too. Zhurong has been working on Mars (火星) since it arrived there on May 15th, 2021. The machine has collected a lot of information about the planet. Then earlier this year, Zhurong found signs of water on the red planet! It is an amazing discovery because, without water, it’s hard for anything to survive. And the signs of water on Mars raise the possibility that there may be living things on it. This finding is of great importance because it suggests that there might be water on Mars. And if there is water there, it’s possible that some kind of living thing can live there. Scientists are still trying to find out what life forms might live on Mars with water. Some of them are asking whether there are more planets with water. And if scientists can find other planets with water, it might lead to the discovery of new forms of life. While it might be a while before we can visit Mars explorers like Zhurong will keep looking for signs of water and other things about the planet. Who knows what we might find next? 49. Which of the following can we use to describe space exploration according to (根据) Paragraph 1? A. Awful. B. Boring. C. Dangerous. D. Helpful. 50. What does the underlined word “survive” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Change. B. Live. C. Move. D. Happen. 51. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Who made the finding. B. When the finding was made. C. Why the finding is important. D. How scientists will use the finding. 52. How does the writer feel about future space exploration? A. He is full of hope. B. He is surprised by it. C. He is kind of worried. D. He is of no interest. 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F My grandparents moved to a new home last week and invited us to their housewarming party.

Our school has asked 100 students about their ways of solving problems this week. Here are the results. 52% of the students talk to their friends when they have problems. 22% of them ask their teachers or parents for help while 17% prefer to solve problems by themselves. And the rest choose other ways to work out their problems, like searching online. For me, asking parents for help is the best way to solve problems. I used to be too shy to make friends when I was in Grade 7. So I felt lonely. At last, I decided to turn to my parents. They advised me to join some clubs and taught me how to get on well with my classmates. From the experience, I know that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. As a result, it can be solved more easily. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
