阅读理解A
Fudan University in Shanghai has a new rule about using AI for writing college papers. The rule says students cannot use AI for six things, including creating or changing experiment results, as well as polishing or translating their writing. Breaking this rule may cost students their college degree.
The new rule has caused heated discussions online, as it is believed to be the world’s strictest. Supporters think Fudan is doing the right thing. With the rise of generative AI (生成式人工智能) like ChatGPT, 86 percent of students worldwide had used AI for schoolwork by July, according to global research company Statista. Some even let AI do all the work, which can be dangerous, especially in jobs like nursing (护理) and firefighting (消防), noted Forbes.
The difficulty in catching AI-generated schoolwork adds to the problem. A US study in March found that only 37 percent of teachers have proper training in using AI detection programs. The detection programs also have trouble keeping up with fast-developing generative AI, which now creates less predictable content, explained Australian expert Leon Furze on his website. As a result, detection programs do not always work well. Teachers cannot fully trust them, as one mistake by the program can seriously affect (影响) a student, noted Education Week.
Even so, some experts think Fudan is being too strict. “Stopping the use of AI for touch-up (润色) or translation does not improve creativity, but may cause students to spend too much time on language issues (问题),” Professor Guo Yingjian from Renmin University of China told China Science Daily. He suggested that Fudan should learn from the experiences of Harvard and Cambridge by teaching students to use AI correctly and requiring them to disclose when they have used it.
1. What are students at Fudan University not allowed to do with AI?
A. Draw pictures. B. Design experiments. C. Learn languages. D. Translate their writings.
2. What does Paragraph 2 show about Fudan’s new rule?
A. It will affect many industries. B. It met serious opposition.
C. It is supported by some people. D. It is not the strictest in the world.
3. Why is catching AI-generated schoolwork difficult?
A. AI detection programs are hard to use.
B. There is no proper training for teachers.
C. Some teachers don’t treat using AI as a big problem.
D. Detection tools develop slower than AI technology.
4. How should students use AI, according to Professor Guo Yingjian?
A. Avoid using AI completely. B. Use AI for more creative tasks.
C. Use AI wisely and note the use of it. D. Use AI mostly for language help.
【答案】DCDC
【解析】复旦大学出台新规则限制学生使用 AI 写论文,引发热议,各方观点不一。
1.根据 "The rule says students cannot use AI for six things, including creating or changing experiment results, as well as polishing or translating their writing."(该规定称,学生不得使用人工智能做六件事,包括创建或更改实验结果,以及润色或翻译他们的作品。)可知复旦大学的学生不被允许用 AI 翻译他们的作品。答案是 D。
2. 根据 "Supporters think Fudan is doing the right thing."(支持者认为复旦大学做的是正确的事。)可知第二段表明复旦大学的新规定得到了一些人的支持。答案是 C。
3. 根据 "The detection programs also have trouble keeping up with fast - developing generative AI, which now creates less predictable content"(检测程序也难以跟上快速发展的生成式人工智能,这种人工智能现在生成的内容更不可预测)可知检测工具发展比 AI 技术慢,所以发现 AI 生成的作业很困难。答案是 D。
4.根据 "He suggested that Fudan should learn from the experiences of Harvard and Cambridge by teaching students to use AI correctly and requiring them to disclose when they have used it."(他建议复旦大学应该借鉴哈佛和剑桥的经验,教学生正确使用人工智能,并要求他们在使用时注明。)可知根据郭英剑教授的说法,学生应该明智地使用 AI 并注明使用情况。答案是 C。

Automated Kitchens: Benefits and Risks
Do you think automated (自动化的)kitchens only exist in science fiction shows like Star Trek? Well, think again! Nowadays, robots are already being used to do many things in the kitchen, like frying chicken, making pizzas, and preparing salads. And artificial intelligence (AI) can even create new recipes based on the ingredients available in a kitchen. There are also more advanced ideas being developed to make high-quality restaurant kitchens automated.
At first, because new technologies are usually expensive, it's the restaurants and other businesses that start using AI kitchen technologies. But as time passes by, the prices will probably go down enough for ordinary families to afford. This will change how our homes and society work.
There are some good things about AI kitchens. For example, cooks don't have to do boring jobs like peeling potatoes or standing in one place for hours. This saves time and lets people do more important things. AI can also provide different kinds of special diets and tastes to meet personal needs.
However, there are also problems. Cooking is not just about making food. It's a good activity that helps people communicate and express themselves. If we don't need humans to cook anymore, these good things might disappear. Family relationships might not be as good without the time spent together in the kitchen.
Moreover, the kitchen is like a science lab at home. It's important for kids to learn about materials, chemistry, and how to solve problems through cooking.
We also have to think about cultural problems. Sometimes, AI might change traditional recipes and cooking methods because it doesn't understand cultural details well. This could make the dishes less diverse. If we rely too much on technology for cooking, the food might taste the same. It's similar to how AI art images look alike in different apps.
In conclusion, while new technologies bring convenience, they also have a price. We need to think about the possible problems they might cause in our society, especially when it comes to something as important as food in our daily lives.
1. Why are restaurants the first to use AI kitchen technologies, according to the text?
A. They are more interested in automation.
B. They can afford the high costs.
C. They have more space for robots.
D. They want to attract more customers.
2. What is one potential benefit of AI kitchens mentioned in the article?
A. Meeting various tastes. B. Saving money on food.
C. Reducing kitchen waste. D. Improving family relationships.
3. If AI takes over cooking completely, what might happen to traditional cooking skills?
A. They might be improved. B. They might be lost.
C. They might stay the same. D. They might become more popular.
4. What aspects may artificial intelligence kitchens have problems according to the article?
A. AI cannot understand cultural details and might change traditional recipes.
B. AI cannot provide special diets and tastes.
C. AI cannot reduce the price of kitchen technology.
D. AI cannot conduct scientific experiments in the kitchen.
5. What is the author’s attitude toward the widespread use of AI kitchens?
A. Uncaring. B. Unclear. C. Positive. D. Cautious.

In today’s competitive society, it seems everyone is talking about self-care. Michela Luciani, a teacher of nursing at the University of Milano-Bicocca in Italy, says self-care is to keep fit and avoid getting sick. However, the term has been used over time by companies and influencers to sell products that encourage people to focus on themselves, and this makes people feel even lonelier.
You can see many examples of this on social media. Brands are selling all kinds of self-care products there, like things for the skin and to help hair grow. Influencers know people are more interested in mental health now. So, they made a lot more videos on YouTube with the help of sponsors. These videos show what they do every day for self-care. In 2022, the global market for self-care products was worth 5.6 trillion dollars. It seems like it's helping people feel calm, but a reporter from Vox, Allie Volpe, said it might be a trick.
Buying these products might make us feel good for a little while, but it doesn't solve the real problems. A psychologist called Maytal Eyal says it makes people think too much about themselves and become lonely.
Why do people like consumer self-care? Eyal thinks individualism is the main reason. In today's world, asking for help is thought to be embarrassing. People see independence as very important. When they're told they must take care of themselves, they feel they have to do it alone. Wanting to be perfect also makes them buy more self-care products. Social media tells us to be calm and positive. It shows us nice but impossible pictures and costly "solutions".
While the consumer self-care is just about one person, the real self-care is about being with others. As Eyal said, if we can find a good balance between taking care of ourselves and others, that's the true self-care.
1. What is Michela Luciani’s definition of self-care?
A. Buying products to relax. B. Staying healthy and avoiding illness.
C. Spending money to feel better. D. Focusing on personal growth.
2.What can we know from the passage about the global market for self-care products?
A. It will continue to grow rapidly.
B. It may not truly benefit people's mental health.
C. It is dominated by a few large companies.
D. It has led to a decrease in social interaction.
3.If a person always buys self-care products, we can infer that he/she might ________.
A. have serious mental health problems
B. be easily influenced by marketing
C. have a good balance of self-care and caring for others
D. be good at taking care of himself/herself
4. How can we practice real self-care, according to the text?
A. By buying fewer self-care products. B. By keeping a positive attitude.
C. By becoming more independent. D. By balancing self-care with caring for others.
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The growth of the self-care product market and its benefits.
B . The reasons for the popularity of self-care products.
C. How to achieve a balance between self-care and caring for others.
D. The negative effects of consumer self-care and the importance of true self-care.
【答案】BBBDD
【解析】文章讨论了消费者自我关怀的负面影响和真正的自我关怀的重要性。
1.B. 细节理解题。Michela Luciani将自我关怀定义为保持健康和避免生病,这与选项B相符。
2.B. 推理判断题。从第二段文章中提到,尽管自我关怀产品的全球市场很大,但它可能并没有真正解决人们的心理问题,甚至可能是一种欺骗,这意味着它可能不会真正有益于人们的心理健康。
3.B. 推理判断题。文本表明,经常购买自我关怀产品的人可能是因为他们受到市场营销和社会媒体的影响,这些渠道鼓励个人主义和追求完美。
4.D. 理解理解题。文本强调真正的自我关怀是关于与他人相处,并在自我关怀和关怀他人之间找到平衡,这与选项D相符。
5.D. 主旨大意题。文章的主要观点是讨论消费者自我关怀的负面影响,比如增加孤独感和追求个人主义,以及与之相对比的真正的自我关怀的重要性,后者涉及关怀他人和自我关怀。

I got a chance to see a demo (演示)of Sora, which is a new video-making tool from OpenAI. It was really amazing, but it also made me feel worried about what's going to happen in the future.
Video is now a new area that AI is exploring. OpenAI has just introduced Sora in the US, and Meta has also said they have their own tool called Movie Gen that can turn text into video. But the question is, are we really ready for a world where we can't tell if the videos we see are real or not?
This new technology, just like the ones that make AI text or pictures, can create short video parts based on the instructions we give. In the Sora demo, it made a video of a tree frog in the Amazon that looked like a nature documentary. The video looked very real, but when I watched the tree frog, I didn't feel so excited. Instead, I felt a little sad. Because the tree frog, the branch it was on, and the rainforest it lived in, none of them were real. The scene looked good, but it was actually empty inside.
In the past few years, the tools that make AI text and pictures have developed very fast. But video made by AI seems even more dangerous. In the past, it was harder to change moving pictures than still ones, but now AI is changing this. Some bad people use AI to copy people's voices and cheat them out of money. And some people who spread false information use something called deepfakes for different reasons. The people who made these AI tools seem to know about these problems, and they are trying to fix them by adding some safety things.
When I watched the tree frog video made by AI, I kept thinking about what the meaning of it was. We like nature documentaries because they show real things and it's not easy to get those videos. But AI videos are made by learning from old videos, so they can never be as real as the ones taken in nature.
Maybe it doesn't matter how a video is made. But what makes me sad is the cheating in AI videos. As AI videos look more and more real, they might take away the beauty of real photos and videos. We can't trust our eyes anymore, and we have to be like detectives to find out if a video is real or not. I shared a cute rabbit video on Instagram not long ago, and my husband asked if it was made by AI. That question made the fun of sharing the video go away. In a world where anything can be fake, maybe everything we see is not real.
1.What are Sora and Movie Gen mentioned in the article?
A. Two new social media platforms B. Two new video games
C. Two new video-making tools D. Two new photo-editing apps
2. What was the author’s reaction to the demo of Sora?
A. She felt excited about the new technology.
B. She felt disappointed by its inaccuracy(误差).
C. She blamed the creators for cheating others.
D. She began to feel worried about the future.
3. Why did the author feel sad when watching the tree frog video made by Sora?
A. It lacks the qualities of reality.
B. the tree frog is an endangered animal.
C. It reminded her of the decline of rainforests.
D. It lowered her amazement for nature documentaries.
4. According to paragraph 4, what problem can AI video generation technology cause?
A. Reduced creativity in original videos.
B. Higher production costs for real videos.
C. Difficulty in telling misleading content.
D. The videos it makes are of poor quality.
5. Why does the author mention her experience in the last paragraph?
A. To show her cautious attitude toward videos.
B. To prove AI media can cause doubt and distrust.
C. To suggest people stop sharing videos online.
D. To warn people of the potential cheat in AI media.

On August 20th, 2024, something really important happened in the Chinese gaming industry. A new game called Black Myth: Wukong was released all over the world. This is a very cool AAA action role-playing game made by Game Science. Just a few hours after it came out, it became the most-played single-player game on Steam. Lots of people talked about it on social media.
Black Myth: Wukong uses ideas from Chinese mythologies and the famous book Journey to the West. Players can be Sun Wukong and go on exciting adventures. The game got some ideas from Stephen Chow’s A Chinese Odyssey. It makes a really nice dreamy world with Chinese things like faraway mountains, wild roads, and old temples. The different monsters, gods, and other characters in the game that look like Chinese designs come from The Classic of Mountains and Seas. This makes the old Chinese mythology stories feel new again.
Feng Ji, who started Game Science and is the CEO, said that the game was made only by a Chinese team. They wanted to tell Chinese stories to people all over the world. He said, “The story and the art ideas are very important. They put Chinese stories and old cultural things into the game in a good way.” He thought that what makes a game really good is not how much money was spent on it or how it looks, but if players really like playing it.
The Xinhua News Agency said that to make a really good game that makes you feel like you’re in another world, the game team spent a long time going to different places in China. They looked at old and important places and put them into the game scenes. The game has 36 places that look like real places in the world. 27 of them are in Shanxi Province, China. This gives players a very special and fun visual experience.
The game has made more people interested in Shanxi’s old culture. On the day the game came out, the number of people looking for information about traveling to Shanxi went up by more than 10%. Since July, the number of people booking trips to Shanxi has doubled. And the number of tourists going to Shanxi has grown by 50%. Shanxi has a lot of nice places for tourists, but not many people knew about it before. The game has shown Shanxi’s old things in a nice and interesting way. It has made people want to learn more about the culture and go there to travel.

A. Where its design ideas come from. B. How popular it is.
C. Who plays it. D. Its meaning in culture.

A father was very worried about his son, who, at 15 or 16 years old, seemed to show no signs of courage. So, the father went to see a famous boxing (拳击) coach and asked him to help his son. The coach agreed and said, “Leave your son with me. In three months, I promise he will be a changed person. However, you must not visit him during this time.” The father agreed.
Three months later, the father returned to pick up his son as promised. The coach set up a friendly match between the boy and an experienced boxer to show the training results. As soon as the match began, the boy was knocked down hard. But to everyone’s surprise, he quickly got up and faced his opponent (对手) again. He was knocked down again right away, but immediately jumped back to his feet. This happened again and again. The boy was knocked down 16 times, yet each time he stood up, determined to face the challenge.
The coach turned to the father and asked, “Do you think your son’s performance shows courage?” The father, feeling ashamed, replied, “I’m so disappointed. I never expected that after sending him here for three months of training, he would still get knocked down so easily.”
The coach shook his head and said, “I really feel sorry for you. You’re missing the point. You only see the falls, the superficial (表面上的) winning or losing. Don’t you see the courage and tenacity (韧性) of your son to get up each time? That’s true strength. A strong person isn’t someone who never falls, but someone who rises every time they do. That’s true courage.”
1. Why did the father want his son to learn boxing?
A. To make him physically stronger. B. To train him to be braver.

Fudan University in Shanghai has a new rule about using AI for writing college papers. The rule says students cannot use AI for six things, including creating or changing experiment results, as well as polishing or translating their writing. Breaking this rule may cost students their college degree.
The new rule has caused heated discussions online, as it is believed to be the world’s strictest. Supporters think Fudan is doing the right thing. With the rise of generative AI (生成式人工智能) like ChatGPT, 86 percent of students worldwide had used AI for schoolwork by July, according to global research company Statista. Some even let AI do all the work, which can be dangerous, especially in jobs like nursing (护理) and firefighting (消防), noted Forbes.
The difficulty in catching AI-generated schoolwork adds to the problem. A US study in March found that only 37 percent of teachers have proper training in using AI detection programs. The detection programs also have trouble keeping up with fast-developing generative AI, which now creates less predictable content, explained Australian expert Leon Furze on his website. As a result, detection programs do not always work well. Teachers cannot fully trust them, as one mistake by the program can seriously affect (影响) a student, noted Education Week.
Even so, some experts think Fudan is being too strict. “Stopping the use of AI for touch-up (润色) or translation does not improve creativity, but may cause students to spend too much time on language issues (问题),” Professor Guo Yingjian from Renmin University of China told China Science Daily. He suggested that Fudan should learn from the experiences of Harvard and Cambridge by teaching students to use AI correctly and requiring them to disclose when they have used it.
1. What are students at Fudan University not allowed to do with AI?
A. Draw pictures. B. Design experiments. C. Learn languages. D. Translate their writings.
2. What does Paragraph 2 show about Fudan’s new rule?
A. It will affect many industries. B. It met serious opposition.
C. It is supported by some people. D. It is not the strictest in the world.
3. Why is catching AI-generated schoolwork difficult?
A. AI detection programs are hard to use.
B. There is no proper training for teachers.
C. Some teachers don’t treat using AI as a big problem.
D. Detection tools develop slower than AI technology.
4. How should students use AI, according to Professor Guo Yingjian?
A. Avoid using AI completely. B. Use AI for more creative tasks.
C. Use AI wisely and note the use of it. D. Use AI mostly for language help.

Automated Kitchens: Benefits and Risks
Do you think automated (自动化的)kitchens only exist in science fiction shows like Star Trek? Well, think again! Nowadays, robots are already being used to do many things in the kitchen, like frying chicken, making pizzas, and preparing salads. And artificial intelligence (AI) can even create new recipes based on the ingredients available in a kitchen. There are also more advanced ideas being developed to make high-quality restaurant kitchens automated.
At first, because new technologies are usually expensive, it's the restaurants and other businesses that start using AI kitchen technologies. But as time passes by, the prices will probably go down enough for ordinary families to afford. This will change how our homes and society work.
There are some good things about AI kitchens. For example, cooks don't have to do boring jobs like peeling potatoes or standing in one place for hours. This saves time and lets people do more important things. AI can also provide different kinds of special diets and tastes to meet personal needs.
However, there are also problems. Cooking is not just about making food. It's a good activity that helps people communicate and express themselves. If we don't need humans to cook anymore, these good things might disappear. Family relationships might not be as good without the time spent together in the kitchen.
Moreover, the kitchen is like a science lab at home. It's important for kids to learn about materials, chemistry, and how to solve problems through cooking.
We also have to think about cultural problems. Sometimes, AI might change traditional recipes and cooking methods because it doesn't understand cultural details well. This could make the dishes less diverse. If we rely too much on technology for cooking, the food might taste the same. It's similar to how AI art images look alike in different apps.
In conclusion, while new technologies bring convenience, they also have a price. We need to think about the possible problems they might cause in our society, especially when it comes to something as important as food in our daily lives.
1. Why are restaurants the first to use AI kitchen technologies, according to the text?
A. They are more interested in automation.
B. They can afford the high costs.
C. They have more space for robots.
D. They want to attract more customers.
2. What is one potential benefit of AI kitchens mentioned in the article?
A. Meeting various tastes. B. Saving money on food.
C. Reducing kitchen waste. D. Improving family relationships.
3. If AI takes over cooking completely, what might happen to traditional cooking skills?
A. They might be improved. B. They might be lost.
C. They might stay the same. D. They might become more popular.
4. What aspects may artificial intelligence kitchens have problems according to the article?
A. AI cannot understand cultural details and might change traditional recipes.
B. AI cannot provide special diets and tastes.
C. AI cannot reduce the price of kitchen technology.
D. AI cannot conduct scientific experiments in the kitchen.
5. What is the author’s attitude toward the widespread use of AI kitchens?
A. Uncaring. B. Unclear. C. Positive. D. Cautious.

In today’s competitive society, it seems everyone is talking about self-care. Michela Luciani, a teacher of nursing at the University of Milano-Bicocca in Italy, says self-care is to keep fit and avoid getting sick. However, the term has been used over time by companies and influencers to sell products that encourage people to focus on themselves, and this makes people feel even lonelier.
You can see many examples of this on social media. Brands are selling all kinds of self-care products there, like things for the skin and to help hair grow. Influencers know people are more interested in mental health now. So, they made a lot more videos on YouTube with the help of sponsors. These videos show what they do every day for self-care. In 2022, the global market for self-care products was worth 5.6 trillion dollars. It seems like it's helping people feel calm, but a reporter from Vox, Allie Volpe, said it might be a trick.
Buying these products might make us feel good for a little while, but it doesn't solve the real problems. A psychologist called Maytal Eyal says it makes people think too much about themselves and become lonely.
Why do people like consumer self-care? Eyal thinks individualism is the main reason. In today's world, asking for help is thought to be embarrassing. People see independence as very important. When they're told they must take care of themselves, they feel they have to do it alone. Wanting to be perfect also makes them buy more self-care products. Social media tells us to be calm and positive. It shows us nice but impossible pictures and costly "solutions".
While the consumer self-care is just about one person, the real self-care is about being with others. As Eyal said, if we can find a good balance between taking care of ourselves and others, that's the true self-care.
1. What is Michela Luciani’s definition of self-care?
A. Buying products to relax. B. Staying healthy and avoiding illness.
C. Spending money to feel better. D. Focusing on personal growth.
2.What can we know from the passage about the global market for self-care products?
A. It will continue to grow rapidly.
B. It may not truly benefit people's mental health.
C. It is dominated by a few large companies.
D. It has led to a decrease in social interaction.
3.If a person always buys self-care products, we can infer that he/she might ________.
A. have serious mental health problems
B. be easily influenced by marketing
C. have a good balance of self-care and caring for others
D. be good at taking care of himself/herself
4. How can we practice real self-care, according to the text?
A. By buying fewer self-care products. B. By keeping a positive attitude.
C. By becoming more independent. D. By balancing self-care with caring for others.
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The growth of the self-care product market and its benefits.
B . The reasons for the popularity of self-care products.
C. How to achieve a balance between self-care and caring for others.
D. The negative effects of consumer self-care and the importance of true self-care.

I got a chance to see a demo (演示)of Sora, which is a new video-making tool from OpenAI. It was really amazing, but it also made me feel worried about what's going to happen in the future.
Video is now a new area that AI is exploring. OpenAI has just introduced Sora in the US, and Meta has also said they have their own tool called Movie Gen that can turn text into video. But the question is, are we really ready for a world where we can't tell if the videos we see are real or not?
This new technology, just like the ones that make AI text or pictures, can create short video parts based on the instructions we give. In the Sora demo, it made a video of a tree frog in the Amazon that looked like a nature documentary. The video looked very real, but when I watched the tree frog, I didn't feel so excited. Instead, I felt a little sad. Because the tree frog, the branch it was on, and the rainforest it lived in, none of them were real. The scene looked good, but it was actually empty inside.
In the past few years, the tools that make AI text and pictures have developed very fast. But video made by AI seems even more dangerous. In the past, it was harder to change moving pictures than still ones, but now AI is changing this. Some bad people use AI to copy people's voices and cheat them out of money. And some people who spread false information use something called deepfakes for different reasons. The people who made these AI tools seem to know about these problems, and they are trying to fix them by adding some safety things.
When I watched the tree frog video made by AI, I kept thinking about what the meaning of it was. We like nature documentaries because they show real things and it's not easy to get those videos. But AI videos are made by learning from old videos, so they can never be as real as the ones taken in nature.
Maybe it doesn't matter how a video is made. But what makes me sad is the cheating in AI videos. As AI videos look more and more real, they might take away the beauty of real photos and videos. We can't trust our eyes anymore, and we have to be like detectives to find out if a video is real or not. I shared a cute rabbit video on Instagram not long ago, and my husband asked if it was made by AI. That question made the fun of sharing the video go away. In a world where anything can be fake, maybe everything we see is not real.
1.What are Sora and Movie Gen mentioned in the article?
A. Two new social media platforms B. Two new video games
C. Two new video-making tools D. Two new photo-editing apps
2. What was the author’s reaction to the demo of Sora?
A. She felt excited about the new technology.
B. She felt disappointed by its inaccuracy(误差).
C. She blamed the creators for cheating others.

3. Why did the author feel sad when watching the tree frog video made by Sora?
A. It lacks the qualities of reality.
B. the tree frog is an endangered animal.
C. It reminded her of the decline of rainforests.
D. It lowered her amazement for nature documentaries.
4. According to paragraph 4, what problem can AI video generation technology cause?
A. Reduced creativity in original videos.
B. Higher production costs for real videos.
C. Difficulty in telling misleading content.
D. The videos it makes are of poor quality.
5. Why does the author mention her experience in the last paragraph?
A. To show her cautious attitude toward videos.
B. To prove AI media can cause doubt and distrust.
C. To suggest people stop sharing videos online.
D. To warn people of the potential cheat in AI media.

On August 20th, 2024, something really important happened in the Chinese gaming industry. A new game called Black Myth: Wukong was released all over the world. This is a very cool AAA action role-playing game made by Game Science. Just a few hours after it came out, it became the most-played single-player game on Steam. Lots of people talked about it on social media.
Black Myth: Wukong uses ideas from Chinese mythologies and the famous book Journey to the West. Players can be Sun Wukong and go on exciting adventures. The game got some ideas from Stephen Chow’s A Chinese Odyssey. It makes a really nice dreamy world with Chinese things like faraway mountains, wild roads, and old temples. The different monsters, gods, and other characters in the game that look like Chinese designs come from The Classic of Mountains and Seas. This makes the old Chinese mythology stories feel new again.
Feng Ji, who started Game Science and is the CEO, said that the game was made only by a Chinese team. They wanted to tell Chinese stories to people all over the world. He said, “The story and the art ideas are very important. They put Chinese stories and old cultural things into the game in a good way.” He thought that what makes a game really good is not how much money was spent on it or how it looks, but if players really like playing it.
The Xinhua News Agency said that to make a really good game that makes you feel like you’re in another world, the game team spent a long time going to different places in China. They looked at old and important places and put them into the game scenes. The game has 36 places that look like real places in the world. 27 of them are in Shanxi Province, China. This gives players a very special and fun visual experience.
The game has made more people interested in Shanxi’s old culture. On the day the game came out, the number of people looking for information about traveling to Shanxi went up by more than 10%. Since July, the number of people booking trips to Shanxi has doubled. And the number of tourists going to Shanxi has grown by 50%. Shanxi has a lot of nice places for tourists, but not many people knew about it before. The game has shown Shanxi’s old things in a nice and interesting way. It has made people want to learn more about the culture and go there to travel.
1.What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the game?
A. Where its design ideas come from. B. How popular it is.
C. Who plays it. D. Its meaning in culture.
2. What is the key to making a truly valuable game according to Feng Ji?
A. Making a lot of money for the game company.
B. Putting Chinese stories into art ideas.
C. Making cool characters and nice looks.
D. Giving players a good time.
3.Which words are best for describing the game's production team?
A. Having big goals and working fast.
B. Being sure of themselves and making a lot.
C. Working hard and aiming high.
D. Having much experience and being creative.
A. hard-working and caring B. Confident and productive.
C. Devoted and high-standard. D. Experienced and imaginative.
4.How does the game help Shanxi Province?
A. By making more people want to go there for culture and travel.

A father was very worried about his son, who, at 15 or 16 years old, seemed to show no signs of courage. So, the father went to see a famous boxing (拳击) coach and asked him to help his son. The coach agreed and said, “Leave your son with me. In three months, I promise he will be a changed person. However, you must not visit him during this time.” The father agreed.
Three months later, the father returned to pick up his son as promised. The coach set up a friendly match between the boy and an experienced boxer to show the training results. As soon as the match began, the boy was knocked down hard. But to everyone’s surprise, he quickly got up and faced his opponent (对手) again.

饮酒 (陶渊明)
结庐在人境,而无车马喧。
问君何能尔,心远地自偏。
采菊东篱下,悠然见南山。
山气日夕佳,飞鸟相与还。
此中有真意,欲辨已忘言。
Drinking Wine
In people’s haunt (常去之处) I build my cot;
Of wheel’s and hoof’s (马蹄的) noise I hear not.
How can it leave on me no trace (痕迹)?
Secluded (隐居的) heart makes secluded place.
I pick fenceside (篱笆旁的) asters at will;
Carefree I see the Southern Hill.
The mountain air’s fresh day and night;
Together birds go home in flight.
What revelation (启示) at this view?
Words fail me if I try to tell you.
