Guilin Guilin,a peaceful city lying in the hilly south-western area of the country,is among the top Chinese destinations for its extraordinary natural scenery.The unique karst ( landscape with its four features,namely green hills,clear water,fantastic caves,and oddly-shaped rocks,makes it a famous tourist attraction.

B A couple Peter and Chris in their 60s have travelled 12,000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China-riding their bikes the entire way.They stepped on the long journey after deciding to“do something a bit different'”.They traversed(横穿)cities,deserts,mountains and everything in between across Europe,the Middle East and the East Asia.The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find a shelter. 【高二年级期末考试英语卷第3页（共8页）】 5270B 扫描全能王创建 Peter,66,said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was "really exciting".At the journey,the special pair didn't fly home but instead chose to book a cabin()inside a 400-meter-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton. "You never know what the day is going to bring.All you know is that you are going to get on your bike and cycle.Every day is an adventure and every day is new.Overall,the experience is absolutely unbelievable,"Peter said.In the beginning Peter and Chris set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home.They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles (and broke his leg.After seven months of recovery,the couple set out again in Britain.They finally arrived in China in November 2018. Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way,many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris,64,said,"It was a wonderful experience,especially wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way. 24.What's the couple's purpose of taking the long journey? A.To try something new. B.To break the world record. C.To go across 16 countries by bike. D.To celebrate their 37-year marriage. 25.How did the couple go back to their home after the trip to China?

C At a recycling center,two team members spend all day pulling items from a conveyor belt covered in garbage ()One pulls out juice cartons and plastic bottles that can be reprocessed,while the other searches for pollutants in the stream of paper products.They are AI-powered robots that each look like a supercharged mechanical arm.Yes,even recycling has gotten involved in the AI revolution. In theory,materials recovery facilities(MRFs)gather the wastes,sort them out,and then sell the materials to companies that can reuse them.In practice,the MRFs aren't all that good.The issue is that it's long been too hard for recycling plants to sort materials with the level of specificity needed to reuse them.The traditional recycling methods succeed in separating waste into broad categories of paper,glass,and metal.But finer layers of detail often go unnoticed,especially with plastic.It's hard for recyclers to determine whether,say, a container is a milk container or a pesticide(杀虫剂)container, AI stands to make a change,giving recycling plants a far more detailed view into packaging.The Al-powered recycling robots are "vision systems":In the same way ChatGPT is trained,they ingest lots of photographs of thrown-away items in various states of damage. The robots are then able to identify even tiny differences in a product's color,shape,texture, or logo.Recycling operators said that traditional systems tend to be 85 to 95 percent accurate, while robotics companies claim up to 99 percent accuracy. 【高二年级期末考试英语卷第4页（共8页）】 5270B 扫描全能王创建 That is not to say that the turn to AI has already fixed recycling.The high-tech systems won't come cheap-an individual robot can cost as much as $300,000.Even if costs eventually decrease,recycling robots can't change the fact that recycling,even at its best,is just not a particularly efficient way of dealing with single-use products.From a perspective focused on plastic pollution,what's better than a recyclable single-use cup is not using one at all. 28.What is mainly described in the first paragraph? A.A common sight of a recycling center. B.The application of AI tools in recycling. C.The power of AI to change an industry. D.A display of difficulties in waste sorting. 29.What is the challenge faced by recycling plants? A.The accuracy of waste sorting. B.The efficiency of waste management. C.The low profit from selling reusable materials. D.The unnoticed danger in collecting waste materials. 30.What does the underlined word "ingest"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Edit. B.Absorb. C.Copy. D.Download. 31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Single-use products should be limited. B.Costs of high-tech systems will increase. C.Recyclable products should be advocated. D.AI will be the final frontier of recycling. D The National Health Service(NHS)in England is to pay for 10 people,to whom a"bionic eye(仿生眼)”will be implanted(植入).It is a pioneering technology that can help those who have been blind for years to gain some sight. Only a small number of people have received surgery in trials so far to equip them to use Argus II,which uses a camera fixed in a pair of glasses and a tiny computer to send signals directly to the nerves()controlling sight.Those who will get the equipment can currently see nothing more than the difference between daylight and darkness.The system allows the brain to decode()flashes of light,so that they can learn to see movement. One of three patients who have had the implant into the retina (in'trails at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital is Keith Hayman,68,from Lancashire,who has five grandchildren.He was blind in his 20s.The disease causes cells in the retina gradually to stop working and die.Hayman was forced to give up his work."Having spent half my life in darkness,I can now tell when my grandchildren run towards me and make out lights,"he said."I would be talking to a friend,who might have walked off and I couldn't tell and kept talking to myself.This doesn't happen anymore,because I can tell when they have gone. They may seem like little things,but they make all the difference to me.". After the surgery,10 patients will be carefully followed,to gather data on their progress and assess how much the bionic eye improves their daily lives.If the results are good,more patients will be likely to receive the treatment in the future.The "bionic eye"treatment, including surgery,follow-up,equipment and recovery,costs f150,000. 32.What is Argus II mainly made up of?" A.A camera,a pair of glasses and a bionic eye. B.The nerves,a pair of glasses and some signals. C.A camera,a pair of glasses and a tiny computer. D.A new retina,a flash light and a tiny computer. i01: 【高二年级期末考试英语卷第5页（共8页）】 5270B 扫描全能王创建 可只 33.What does the author want to show by using the example of Hayman? A.Hayman has become a normal person.
