You may want to eat tasty food that is easy to prepare. You may be inspired to exercise and stay in shape. The good news is that there are apps to help you. Paprika Paprika is an app to help users plan meals, shop and cook. You can save recipes from websites and from other apps to Paprika. The app can help keep a record of the foods you have in your home, so when you go shopping, it can remind you what the required foods are. MealBoard MealBoard is another app that can suggest recipes and help you plan meals. This app can suggest recipes based on the food you already have in your home. MealBoard can keep a list of what food you have and what you expect to buy. This app can scan bar codes (条形码) to add items to your list. Using this app, you can also know when your food is no longer usable. MealBoard lets users save recipes from websites and then search them by foods used in the recipes. For example, you can search for recipes that have “chocolate” in them. IEatWell The IEatWell app supports healthy eating by giving users rewards for eating the right foods. If you like earning rewards for meeting your goals, IEatWell may work well for you. Instead of measuring how much you eat, IEatWell measures how well you eat. Tell the app what you are eating for your meal. You can even add a photo. The app will rate how healthy your meal is, and then give you a reward if you are eating well. 1.

(使用这款应用，你还可以记录食物的过期日期，这样你就知道你的食物什么时候不能再食用了。) ”可知，使用MealBoard这个应用程序，你也可以记录食品的到期日期，这样你就知道什么时候你的食物不能再食用了。因此，MealBoard可以帮助人们知道他们的食物什么时候可能会变质。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据IEatWell部分中“Instead of measuring how much you eat, IEatWell measures how well you eat. Tell the app what you are eating for your meal. You can even add a photo. The app will rate how healthy your meal is, and then give you a reward if you are eating well. (IEatWell不是衡量你吃了多少，而是衡量你吃得有多好。告诉应用程序你要吃什么。你甚至可以添加照片。该应用程序会评估你的饮食健康程度，如果你吃得好，就会给你奖励。) ”可知，告诉IEatWell这个应用程序你正在吃什么饭，你甚至可以添加一张照片。应用程序会评估你的饭菜有多健康，然后如果你吃得好，就会给你奖励。因此，人们上传照片是为了让应用程序评估他们的饭菜是否健康。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了几款可以帮助用户健康饮食的应用软件，话题和健康生活相关，由此推知这篇文章很有可能来自杂志的健康专栏。故选C。 B An owl (猫头鹰) named Flaco escaped New York’s Central Park Zoo last week after his cage was broken. This set off a bird-hunt of police officers and park rangers (护林员). Zoo officials worried that Flaco, who had been kept in his zoo cage for 13 years, may have lost the survival abilities he needed in the wild. They placed some of his favorite treats in the open air to attempt to trap him. Flaco was not fooled. Instead, he was sighted flying over5th Avenue, and Central Park’s skating rink. A number of New Yorkers came into Central Park to try to catch a glimpse of Flaco, taking photos with excitement. But this week, zoo officials announced they accepted that Flaco remained in Central Park because he had been seen bringing up bones and fur from the park’s community of rats. “He has been very successful at hunting and consuming lots of rats in the park.” zoo officials told the New York Post.“ And that’s amazing. He’s hunting on his own. He’s flying better. Flaceo really seems to be enjoying himself out there.” There is a caution attached to this story of an owl who is making it on his own in the city that never sleeps. Owls are nocturnal. They go around searching for food at night. They sleep during the day, or try to, like lots of people who work the overnight shift. Yet some New Yorkers who don’t know proper bird-watching behavior reportedly see Flaco sleep in a tree during the day, and begin to shout at him. It interrupts his sleep. Flaco can’t try to say “shh, shh” with the traditional New York reply. After all, a bird can’t give someone the bird. 4. Why were zoo officials concerned about Flaco’s ability to survive? A. Because his favourite food was too little. B. Because he might be attacked by police. C. Because his cage was severely damaged. D. Because he was kept in his cage for long. 5. What can we infer about Flaco from the third paragraph? A. He has adapted to the wild. B. He has found his previous home. C. He still faces great challenges. D. He dislikes the rats in the park. 6. What does the underlined word “nocturnal” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Scary-looking. B. Shy and quiet. C. Active at night. D. Badly-behaved. 7. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to the interruption to Flaco’s sleep? A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Unclear. D. Disapproving. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述纽约动物园一只猫头鹰逃跑并为市民所接受的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Zoo officials worried that Flaco, who had been kept in his zoo cage for 13 years, may have lost the survival abilities he needed in the wild.(动物园官员担心，在动物园笼子里被关了13年的弗拉科可能已经失去了在野外生存所需的能力)”可推知，这只猫头鹰被圈在笼子里面过长了，可能失去了捕食能力。故选D。 5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“He’s hunting on his own. He’s flying better. Flaceo really seems to be enjoying himself out there.(他在独自打猎。他飞得好多了。弗拉西奥在外面玩得很开心)”可推知，他现在已经适应了野外生活。故选A。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后文“They go around searching for food at night. They sleep during the day, or try to, like lots of people who work the overnight shift.(它们在夜间四处寻找食物。他们白天睡觉，或者试着睡觉，就像很多上夜班的人一样)”可知，猫头鹰在夜间四处寻找食物，白天睡觉，属于夜间活动的动物。故该词意思为“夜间活动的”。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Yet some New Yorkers who don’t know proper bird-watching behavior reportedly see Flaco sleep in a tree during the day, and begin to shout at him. It interrupts his sleep. Flaco can’t try to say “shh, shh” with the traditional New York reply. After all, a bird can’t give someone the bird.(然而，据报道，一些不知道正确观鸟行为的纽约人白天看到弗拉克在树上睡觉，就开始对它大喊大叫。这打断了他的睡眠。弗莱克不能用纽约人传统的回答方式说“嘘，嘘”。毕竟，鸟不能给人竖中指)”可推知，作者的态度为不赞同。故选D。 C Whether artificial intelligence has ever been on your radar or not, there’s no denying that it’s high time you turned your attention to ChatGPT, because this one is a big deal. The tool, developed by Open AI, let you type natural-language prompts (提示). ChatGPT then offers conversational responses. The robot remembers the information of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. It draws its answers from vast amounts of information on the internet. ChatGPT seems pretty knowledgeable in areas where there’s good training data for it to learn from. It’s not smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound very authoritative (权威的). You can ask it countless questions and often will get useful answers. For instance, you can ask it encyclopedic (百科知识的) questions like “Explain Newton’s laws of motion.” You can tell it “Write me a poem.” and when it does, say “Now make it more exciting.” You can ask it to write a computer program that will show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word. A few days after its launch, more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. Many people fear that ChatGPT might help students cheat better. But as many other technology developments, it is not a simple black-and-white situation. Decades ago, students could copy encyclopedia entries and use computers and more recently, they have been able to use search engines and Wikipedia. ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing your homework for you. Dustin York, an associate professor at Maryville University, hopes educators will learn to use ChatGPT as a tool and realize it can help students think critically. “Educators thought that Google, Wikipedia, and the Internet itself would ruin education, but they did not.” York said. “What worries me most are educators who may actively try to discourage the recognition of AI like ChatGPT. It is a tool, not a villain (反派).” 8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about ChatGPT? A. Its language model. B. Its design inspiration. C. Its working principle. D. Its development process. 9. What is NOT part of ChatGPT’s function? A. Chat with users. B. Perform security checks. C. Write a computer program. D. Create a poem. 10. Why is ChatGPT a big deal? A. Because it is a tool designed by Open AI. B. Because it has obvious and potential disadvantages. C. Because it helped students with their homework and essays. D. Because it’s knowledgeable in areas with good training data to learn from. 11. What is the best title of this text? A. ChatGPT — a useful AI tool B. Advanced AI — our loyal servant C. ChatGPT — advantages and disadvantages D. A smart app — think twice before trusting it 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一个名为ChatGPT的人工智能聊天机器人系统，它基于OpenAI的GPT-3大型语言模型，能够回答各种自然语言的问题，并且可用于帮助研究和解决问题。文章还探讨了ChatGPT可能带来的作用和问题，作者认为教育界应该认识到ChatGPT是一个工具而非教育的反派。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The tool, developed by Open AI, let you type natural-language prompts (提示). ChatGPT then offers conversational responses. The robot remembers the information of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. It draws its answers from vast amounts of information on the internet.(这个工具是由Open AI开发的，可以让你输入自然语言提示。然后，ChatGPT提供会话响应。机器人会记住你的对话信息，使用之前的问题和答案来告知它的下一个回应。它从互联网上的大量信息中得出答案。)”可知，本段主要陈述了ChatGPT的运行过程。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The tool, developed by Open AI, let you type natural-language prompts (提示). ChatGPT then offers conversational responses. The robot remembers the information of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. It draws its answers from vast amounts of information on the internet.(这个工具是由Open AI开发的，可以让你输入自然语言提示。然后，ChatGPT提供会话响应。机器人会记住你的对话信息，使用之前的问题和答案来告知它的下一个回应。它从互联网上的大量信息中得出答案。)”以及第三段“For instance, you can ask it encyclopedic (百科知识的) questions like “Explain Newton’s laws of motion.” You can tell it “Write me a poem.” and when it does, say “Now make it more exciting.” You can ask it to write a computer program that will show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word. (例如，你可以问它一些百科全书式的问题，比如“解释牛顿运动定律”。你可以告诉它“给我写首诗。当它发生时，说“现在让它更令人兴奋。”你可以让它写一个计算机程序，告诉你排列单词字母的所有不同方法。)”可知，ChatGPT功能包括与用户聊天、写一个计算机程序和创作首诗。B选项“Perform security checks. (执行安全检查。) ”文中并未提及。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“ChatGPT seems pretty knowledgeable in areas where there’s good training data for it to learn from.(ChatGPT似乎对有良好训练数据可供其学习的领域非常了解。)”可知，作者认为ChatGPT是一件大事，因为它在有良好训练数据的领域知识渊博。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。本文从第一段开始引入ChatGPT这一新事物；第二段介绍其工作原理；第三段举例介绍ChatGPT可以做什么；第四段客观分析ChatGPT其实并没有帮助学生作弊，而且帮助他们学习得更好；最后一段通过专家的观点呼吁人们客观看待ChatGPT这一工具。所以整篇文章是围绕ChatGPT来写的，应该在A、C选项中选择。C选项“ChatGPT — advantages and disadvantages”会让人预期文章会对ChatGPT的优势和劣势进行较为均衡的讨论，文章虽然提到了ChatGPT可能会导致学生作弊这一潜在的劣势，但通过引用教育工作者的观点，意在引导读者把ChatGPT看作是一个有用的工具，而不是着重去讨论它的利弊。故选A。 D This year marks the 20th anniversary of China’s first manned space mission, with Yang Liwei becoming the first Chinese astronaut to go to space. Since then, another 19 astronauts have reached for the stars. The selection of the fourth generation of astronauts began in 2022 and is now in full swing. Experts revealed how tough the training is before astronauts can fly to space. The human body is not designed for space life. Astronauts are faced with multiple challenges on a space mission. The changes in gravity can have an impact on their bodies. The sensation of confinement(封闭)living in a small spacecraft for months can damage their mental health. Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure. So it’s no wonder that astronauts have to meet extremely high standards and go through a tough training program. To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, were set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. Apart from physical fitness training, it also includes basic scientific theories, psychological health, and mock(模拟)missions. Among the training subjects, the most tiring one is underwater training. This training is designed for astronauts to adapt to the microgravity environment in space. According to Huang, astronauts stay underwater in suits weighing over 100 kilograms for six hours at a time. Water resistance(阻力)and the heavy suit make every move exhausting. “Nie Haisheng, one of the astronauts, once reported a two-kilogram loss in weight after one underwater training exercise,” said Huang. Each astronaut receives training for at least three and a half years before having the chance to go to space. 12. How many generations of Chinese astronauts have been sent to space? A. 3 B. 4 C. 19 D. 20 13. Which of following is true according to paragraph 2? A. Human body is perfect for space exploration. B. The spacecraft has enough space for astronauts to operate. C. Astronauts ought to complete missions under huge pressure. D. The isolated condition in space benefits people’s mental health. 14. Why did Huang mention Nie Haisheng’s two-kilogram weight loss? A. To stress how challenging the training is. B. To describe Nie’s personal achievements. C. To introduce the weight limit for astronauts. D. To explain the importance of proper training. 15. What does this passage mainly about? A. Microgravity environment cause health problems. B. Astronauts need tough training to meet various challenges. C. China has completed numerous missions in space exploration. D. Experts reveals the high standards of selection process of astronauts. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了宇航员在训练中要面临各种挑战和困难。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“The selection of the fourth generation of astronauts began in 2022 and is now in full swing. (第四代宇航员的选拔工作从2022年开始，目前正在全面展开。)”可知，第四代宇航员选拔开始于2022年并且现在还在进行中，所以到目前为止已经有三代的宇航员进入了太空。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段“Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure.  (任务期间的紧急情况挑战了他们在巨大压力下解决问题的知识和能力。)”可知，宇航员应该在巨大的压力下完成太空中的工作。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“Among the training subjects, the most tiring one is underwater training. (在训练科目中，最累人的是水下训练。)”和“Water resistance and the heavy suit make every move exhausting. (水的阻力和厚重的套装让每一步都筋疲力尽。)”可知，水下训练是最消耗体能的，所以下文举聂海胜的例子是为了进一步强调水下训练具有挑战性。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，第一段的“Experts revealed how tough the training is before astronauts can fly to space. (专家透露了宇航员在飞向太空之前的训练有多么艰苦。)”引出宇航员的训练艰辛，第二段的“The human body is not designed for space life. Astronauts are faced with multiple challenges on a space mission. The changes in gravity can have an impact on their bodies. The sensation of confinement living in a small spacecraft for months can damage their mental health. Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure. So it’s no wonder that astronauts have to meet extremely high standards and go through a tough training program.(人体不是为太空生活而设计的。宇航员在太空任务中面临着多重挑战。重力的变化会对他们的身体产生影响。在小型宇宙飞船中生活数月的禁闭感会损害他们的精神健康。任务期间的紧急情况挑战了他们在巨大压力下解决问题的知识和能力。因此，宇航员必须达到极高的标准，并经历严格的训练计划也就不足为奇了。)”及后续详细展开宇航员在训练中要面临的困难和挑战。由此可知，B选项“Astronauts need tough training to meet various challenges. (宇航员需要艰苦的训练来应对各种挑战)”能够概括文章主旨。故选B。 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。 With the development of the tourist industry, traveling has become a fashionable way for people to spend their holiday.

G 19. E 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者分析了独自旅行的好处。 【16题详解】 根据上文中的“Most people like traveling with friends or families(大多数人喜欢与朋友或家人一起旅行)”可知大部分人喜欢和朋友或者家人一起旅行。下文中的“Here are some advantages of traveling alone.(这是独自旅行的一些优势)”可知独自旅行也有一些好处。承上启下，空处应该引出话题“独自旅行”，C项“然而，独自旅行也是个好主意”切题，故选C项。 【17题详解】 此空是小标题。本段内容“If you travel alone, you are the boss of yourself. You can do things according to your own timetable. You can decide freely whenever you go, wherever you visit and whichever transport you take. You don’t need to wait for your partners. You can decide how long you stay at a place and which hotel you live in. Traveling alone gives you more freedom in making decisions.(如果你一个人旅行，那么你就是自己的老板。你可以根据自己的时间表来做事。无论何时访问，无论采用何种交通方式，你都可以自由决定。你无需等待你的伙伴。你可以决定待在一个地方和住酒店多长时间。独自旅行可以使你更加自由做出决定)”主要是介绍独自旅行有更多的自由，A项“有更多的自由”能概括本段内容，故选A项。 【18题详解】 此段的小标题是“Gaining more confidence, strength and learning new skills(获得更多自信，力量和技能)” 。此段中前面已经提到了confidence和strength，所以此空应该与获得技能有关，G项“当你独自旅行时，你也可以学到很多技能，例如，制定计划。”切题，“when traveling on your own”与上文中的“When you travel alone”句式一致，故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“In order to know more about the places you are traveling to, you have to communicate with strangers. In this way, you can know more people.(为了更多地了解你要去的地方，你必须与陌生人进行交流。这样，你可以认识更多的人。)”可知独自旅行可以认识更多的人，根据下文“Instead, the guide or your group members will talk with you all the way(相反，导游或你的小组成员会全程与你交谈)”可知，空处应该是关于团队旅行的，与独自旅行形成对比。承上启下，E项“如果你结伴旅行，你就很少需要和陌生人交流。”切题，故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据本段小标题“Finding out your shortcomings(发现你的不足)”以及句子“Traveling alone is a great chance for you to discover your disadvantages.(独自旅行是发现自己不足的好机会)”说明了独自旅行能帮助你认识到自己的不足。而F选项的内容是“在和朋友或家人一起旅行时，很难意识到自己的不足。” ，这个选项与题干中的意思相符，强调了在与他人一起旅行时，往往没有机会发现自己的不足，而独自旅行则能让你更清楚地认识到自己的不足之处。因此，F选项最符合题意。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As I looked out this morning, I saw over six inches of snow.

I liked having the latest clothes and a particular look. Sometimes I felt I wouldn’t be accepted unless I could create the right image with the latest clothes and shoes. I would go shopping all the time. As time went by, however, the things I wanted were getting more expensive and my mother’s answer was no longer “yes” to everything. One day I asked my mother for a little extra money to go shopping. After giving me a long speech about not spending too much on clothes, she decided to give me a credit card so that I could learn to handle money like an adult. It sounded like a great idea to me: I wouldn’t have to ask her for money all the time. I’d be free. A few days later, she handed me the card and sat me down to talk about my spending limit. “Don’t go crazy buying everything you see. I’m paying that bill every month—remember that. Your limit is $ 150 every month. Think you can handle that?” she said. “I can handle it you’ll see,” I said, already thinking about the first thing I was going to buy. For the first two months, I only used the card to buy small things—a shirt here and there and treating my friends to a meal. Once I got used to having the card, I started going shopping every week, always managing to find something I wanted but didn’t need. So far, I wasn’t going over my limit and there were no complaints from my mother. But one day, I saw a pair of UGG boots I wanted that cost $250. They were very popular, and seeing others with them made me want them more. At that moment, nothing could stop me from getting them, not even the bill or what my mother would say about it. I bought them even though they were way over my limit. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: For the first few days, I hid them from my mother because I didn’t want her to make me return them. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Once she took my card away, things changed a lot. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： For the first few days, I hid them from my mother because I didn’t want her to make me return them. Of course, she’d find out sooner or later, but I decided I’d worry about that when the time came. For now I was enjoying my new boots. However, when the credit card bill came and my mother found out the case, she was very upset, and called me over to yell at me and let me know how disappointed she was that I’d abused her trust. She asked me to give back the credit card. Once she took my card away, things changed a lot. There were fewer shopping trips, and all the things I wanted seemed out of reach. Gradually, I knew my mother was right; life is about more than material things. Once, having the latest clothes and shoes gave me a sense of importance, but now, I’m more worried about paying my bills on time and handling money for the future. As I grow older, image is still important to me, but having the latest of everything isn’t. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，本文讲述了作者因信用卡超支而被母亲暂时剥夺了使用信用卡的权限，从而学会理性消费的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在最初的几天里，我把它们藏起来，不让妈妈看到，因为我不想让她让我把它们还给她”可知，第一段描写了当账单来临时母亲的愤怒反应，并如约剥夺了作者的信用卡。 ②由第二段首句内容“她拿走了我的卡之后，事情发生了很大的变化”可知，第二段描写了在失去信用卡后，作者如何学会珍惜金钱，控制消费，认为妈妈说的是对的。 2.续写线索：母亲的愤怒——收回卡——购物次数减少——理解妈妈是对的——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①决定：decide /determine ②享受，喜欢：enjoy/fall in love with ③喊叫：yell at/shout at ④拥有：have/possess 情绪类 ①担忧：worried/concerned ②失望的：disappointed/frustrated 【点睛】[高分句型1] There were fewer shopping trips, and all the things I wanted seemed out of reach.

B An owl (猫头鹰) named Flaco escaped New York’s Central Park Zoo last week after his cage was broken. This set off a bird-hunt of police officers and park rangers (护林员). Zoo officials worried that Flaco, who had been kept in his zoo cage for 13 years, may have lost the survival abilities he needed in the wild. They placed some of his favorite treats in the open air to attempt to trap him. Flaco was not fooled. Instead, he was sighted flying over5th Avenue, and Central Park’s skating rink. A number of New Yorkers came into Central Park to try to catch a glimpse of Flaco, taking photos with excitement. But this week, zoo officials announced they accepted that Flaco remained in Central Park because he had been seen bringing up bones and fur from the park’s community of rats. “He has been very successful at hunting and consuming lots of rats in the park.” zoo officials told the New York Post.“ And that’s amazing. He’s hunting on his own. He’s flying better. Flaceo really seems to be enjoying himself out there.” There is a caution attached to this story of an owl who is making it on his own in the city that never sleeps. Owls are nocturnal. They go around searching for food at night. They sleep during the day, or try to, like lots of people who work the overnight shift. Yet some New Yorkers who don’t know proper bird-watching behavior reportedly see Flaco sleep in a tree during the day, and begin to shout at him. It interrupts his sleep. Flaco can’t try to say “shh, shh” with the traditional New York reply. After all, a bird can’t give someone the bird. 4. Why were zoo officials concerned about Flaco’s ability to survive? A. Because his favourite food was too little. B. Because he might be attacked by police. C. Because his cage was severely damaged. D. Because he was kept in his cage for long. 5. What can we infer about Flaco from the third paragraph? A. He has adapted to the wild. B. He has found his previous home. C. He still faces great challenges. D. He dislikes the rats in the park. 6. What does the underlined word “nocturnal” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Scary-looking. B. Shy and quiet. C Active at night. D. Badly-behaved. 7. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to the interruption to Flaco’s sleep? A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Unclear. D. Disapproving. C Whether artificial intelligence has ever been on your radar or not, there’s no denying that it’s high time you turned your attention to ChatGPT, because this one is a big deal. The tool, developed by Open AI, let you type natural-language prompts (提示). ChatGPT then offers conversational responses. The robot remembers the information of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. It draws its answers from vast amounts of information on the internet. ChatGPT seems pretty knowledgeable in areas where there’s good training data for it to learn from. It’s not smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound very authoritative (权威的). You can ask it countless questions and often will get useful answers. For instance, you can ask it encyclopedic (百科知识的) questions like “Explain Newton’s laws of motion.” You can tell it “Write me a poem.” and when it does, say “Now make it more exciting.” You can ask it to write a computer program that will show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word. A few days after its launch, more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. Many people fear that ChatGPT might help students cheat better. But as many other technology developments, it is not a simple black-and-white situation. Decades ago, students could copy encyclopedia entries and use computers and more recently, they have been able to use search engines and Wikipedia. ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing your homework for you. Dustin York, an associate professor at Maryville University, hopes educators will learn to use ChatGPT as a tool and realize it can help students think critically. “Educators thought that Google, Wikipedia, and the Internet itself would ruin education, but they did not.” York said. “What worries me most are educators who may actively try to discourage the recognition of AI like ChatGPT. It is a tool, not a villain (反派).” 8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about ChatGPT? A. Its language model. B. Its design inspiration. C. Its working principle. D. Its development process. 9 What is NOT part of ChatGPT’s function? A. Chat with users. B. Perform security checks. C. Write a computer program. D. Create a poem. 10. Why is ChatGPT a big deal? A. Because it is a tool designed by Open AI. B. Because it has obvious and potential disadvantages. C. Because it helped students with their homework and essays. D. Because it’s knowledgeable in areas with good training data to learn from. 11. What is the best title of this text? A. ChatGPT — a useful AI tool B. Advanced AI — our loyal servant C. ChatGPT — advantages and disadvantages D. A smart app — think twice before trusting it D This year marks the 20th anniversary of China’s first manned space mission, with Yang Liwei becoming the first Chinese astronaut to go to space. Since then, another 19 astronauts have reached for the stars. The selection of the fourth generation of astronauts began in 2022 and is now in full swing. Experts revealed how tough the training is before astronauts can fly to space. The human body is not designed for space life. Astronauts are faced with multiple challenges on a space mission. The changes in gravity can have an impact on their bodies. The sensation of confinement(封闭)living in a small spacecraft for months can damage their mental health. Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure. So it’s no wonder that astronauts have to meet extremely high standards and go through a tough training program. To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, were set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. Apart from physical fitness training, it also includes basic scientific theories, psychological health, and mock(模拟)missions. Among the training subjects, the most tiring one is underwater training. This training is designed for astronauts to adapt to the microgravity environment in space. According to Huang, astronauts stay underwater in suits weighing over 100 kilograms for six hours at a time.

I liked having the latest clothes and a particular look. Sometimes I felt I wouldn’t be accepted unless I could create the right image with the latest clothes and shoes. I would go shopping all the time. As time went by, however, the things I wanted were getting more expensive and my mother’s answer was no longer “yes” to everything. One day I asked my mother for a little extra money to go shopping. After giving me a long speech about not spending too much on clothes, she decided to give me a credit card so that I could learn to handle money like an adult. It sounded like a great idea to me: I wouldn’t have to ask her for money all the time. I’d be free. A few days later, she handed me the card and sat me down to talk about my spending limit. “Don’t go crazy buying everything you see. I’m paying that bill every month—remember that. Your limit is $ 150 every month. Think you can handle that?” she said. “I can handle it, you’ll see,” I said, already thinking about the first thing I was going to buy. For the first two months, I only used the card to buy small things—a shirt here and there and treating my friends to a meal. Once I got used to having the card, I started going shopping every week, always managing to find something I wanted but didn’t need. So far, I wasn’t going over my limit and there were no complaints from my mother. But one day, I saw a pair of UGG boots I wanted that cost $250. They were very popular, and seeing others with them made me want them more. At that moment, nothing could stop me from getting them, not even the bill or what my mother would say about it. I bought them even though they were way over my limit. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: For the first few days, I hid them from my mother because I didn’t want her to make me return them. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Once she took my card away, things changed a lot. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
