Gorky’s Childhood reminded me of my unforgettable childhood. It’s colorful like a bubble (泡泡) in the sunshine. If I have to choose a word to describe it, that would be “rich”. My childhood was not only rich in money but also rich in memory. It was full of happiness. I was born in 1995 in a small town. I always had more than 5 yuan in my pocket, so I could buy the snacks I liked to eat and the books I wanted to read. As the youngest child in the family, I was spoiled (宠坏的) by adults as possible as they could. But luckily, I didn’t grow to be a naughty (淘气的) girl. As a student, I did well in exams. And I had my best friends to play with and study with. There are many happy memories about my childhood, but the best ones I think are about summer. Like most children, I was obsessed with cartoons. Almost every afternoon in each summer, I sat quietly watching my favorite cartoon. Sometimes, if time allowed, I would go to the nearby shop to buy some ice cream. If the cartoon was over, then I went out to play with some kids and didn’t come home until I was shouted loudly to have dinner. The village in summer was just like a beautiful painting. The sky was blue, the breeze was blowing and the kids were running and laughing. I was drunk in the memory of childhood without drinking wine. Childhood is too good to be forgotten. 4.

But have you watched livestreaming shows given by virtual hosts (虚拟主播)? They look like real people, but actually they are just digital (数字的) characters created by AI companies. Xmov is such an AI company in China. Founded in 2018, it has created many great digital humans. The company is the first in China to create a virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AIhost to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides, and so on. It will not only reshape many industries, but also allow human workers to put more energy into creative work instead of doing boring and repetitive (重复的) tasks. The AI technology is fantastic without doubt. But it can’t completely take humans’ place. For example, it will be difficult for digital humans to build trust with customers like real people. Also, the use of digital workers may lead to some safety problems if they are not well managed and controlled. 8. Xmov is good at ________.

Founded in 2018, it has created many great digital humans”可知，Xmov创造了许多伟大的数字虚拟人，故可知Xmov擅长创造数字虚拟人。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day”可知，运用虚拟主播比建立一个传统的直播室和团队的成本要低得多。另一方面，虚拟主播可以24小时工作，故虚拟主播的优势是更便宜、工作时间更长。故①③正确。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。通读第四段和“Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries”可推测出，虚拟角色将被广泛使用。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了虚拟主播的使用。故选A。 D Studying army ants for a living leads to a remarkable discovery of their architectural prowess (架构能力). Muratore has been studying how army ants build bridges by linking their bodies, which could help scientists understand better how to control numbers of robots. Commonly found in Central America, South America and Africa, the ants search forest floors for food in long lines. When they come across a gap (缺口), they build a bridge, linking themselves together like monkeys, and then other workers will walk on top of them. In this way, they create shortcuts to make things easier for the other ants, allowing them to collect more food. But building bridges comes at a cost. Muratore studied the ants’ decision-making and found that the ants build bridges where they get the greatest benefit (好处) for the least amount of bodies. This type of research is giving new light on the collective intelligence of army ants. Engineers have already used it in building algorithms (算法) for robots. “It was the big challenge of robotics for a long time to take a robot of parts and have that robot be able to piece itself together.” said David Hu, from Georgia Institute of Technology. “Ants make us believe that such a robot would be workable and have a lot of interesting problems to solve in the real world,” Hu said. “Ants are really able to solve these things with really, really little brainpower.” 12. Why are monkeys mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To let us know how clever ants really are. B. To better describe how ants build bridges. C. Because they live in similar environment as ants. D. Because they have similar body structures as robots. 13. Why do ants build bridges? A. To collect more food. B. To avoid getting lost. C. To better help the weak. D. To save more lives. 14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us? A. How ants decide to build bridges. B. When and where ants build bridges. C. Science behind ants’ building bridges. D. How amazing ants’ building bridges 15. What is the big challenge of robotics? A. How to make robots work with each other well. B. How to have a robot that can piece itself together. C. How to make robots work in a highly organized way. D. How to make robots build a bridge or something alike. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了军蚁通过搭建桥梁展示出的集体智慧及其对机器人算法设计的启发。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When they come across a gap, they build a bridge, linking themselves together like monkeys, and then other workers will walk on top of them.”可知提到猴子是为了更好地描述蚂蚁如何搭建桥梁，故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In this way, they create shortcuts to make things easier for the other ants, allowing them to collect more food.”可知蚂蚁搭建桥梁是为了收集更多的食物，故选A。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Muratore studied the ants’ decision-making and found that the ants build bridges where they get the greatest benefit for the least amount of bodies.”可知第四段主要讲述了蚂蚁如何决定搭建桥梁，故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It was the big challenge of robotics for a long time to take a robot of parts and have that robot be able to piece itself together.”可知机器人领域的重大挑战是如何让机器人能够自我组装，故选B。 三、听力填词（共5小题，满分5分） 请听下面的一则通知。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表16～20空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。（通知读两遍） School Say-Goodbye Day Where In No. 16. ______ Middle School.

He became the third Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016. When creating The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya drew his idea from a famous painting, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). It was created by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty. Based on Wang, Hai created a painter named Zhao Ximeng. After many hard times, Zhao’s mind leaves his body and enters a space where a modern policeman is trying to solve a case about an ancient painting. Hai Ya’s story with science fiction began in his childhood. “When I was a child, the bookstore in my hometown helped create a beautiful garden in my mind that belonged to me only. In it, science fiction offered the most beautiful ‘flowers’. It opened a new world for me as a kid,” Hai Ya told Beijing Youth Daily. Hai Ya’s works feature a mix of history and science fiction. These two styles seem opposite: One looks back at the past, and the other faces the future. However, in Hai Ya’s works, they find a perfect balance. “If we can only imagine the future and things in space like rockets, it will only limit our imagination,” Hai Ya told Shenchen Special Zone Daily. “I don’t think history is something completely in the past. It is flowing (流动的), and we can make predictions about the future by looking back at history. History is also part of our future,” he added. “More Chinese writers today are trying to mix traditional culture with modern stories. Hai Ya believes that it is not a choice but a natural process. Our history and culture have universal values (普世价值) that can touch everyone,” he said to Xinhua. 41. Which Chinese won the Hugo Award?

B For each person, childhood is an important period of life, whether it is happy or sad. Gorky’s Childhood reminded me of my unforgettable childhood. It’s colorful like a bubble (泡泡) in the sunshine. If I have to choose a word to describe it, that would be “rich”. My childhood was not only rich in money but also rich in memory. It was full of happiness. I was born in 1995 in a small town. I always had more than 5 yuan in my pocket, so I could buy the snacks I liked to eat and the books I wanted to read. As the youngest child in the family, I was spoiled (宠坏的) by adults as possible as they could. But luckily, I didn’t grow to be a naughty (淘气的) girl. As a student, I did well in exams. And I had my best friends to play with and study with. There are many happy memories about my childhood, but the best ones I think are about summer. Like most children, I was obsessed with cartoons. Almost every afternoon in each summer, I sat quietly watching my favorite cartoon. Sometimes, if time allowed, I would go to the nearby shop to buy some ice cream. If the cartoon was over, then I went out to play with some kids and didn’t come home until I was shouted loudly to have dinner. The village in summer was just like a beautiful painting. The sky was blue, the breeze was blowing and the kids were running and laughing. I was drunk in the memory of childhood without drinking wine. Childhood is too good to be forgotten. 4.

My Wonderful Life C. My Important Period D. My Unforgettable Childhood C Livestreaming (直播) is very popular nowadays. But have you watched livestreaming shows given by virtual hosts (虚拟主播)? They look like real people, but actually they are just digital (数字的) characters created by AI companies. Xmov is such an AI company in China. Founded in 2018, it has created many great digital humans. The company is the first in China to create a virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AIhost to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides, and so on. It will not only reshape many industries, but also allow human workers to put more energy into creative work instead of doing boring and repetitive (重复的) tasks. The AI technology is fantastic without doubt. But it can’t completely take humans’ place. For example, it will be difficult for digital humans to build trust with customers like real people. Also, the use of digital workers may lead to some safety problems if they are not well managed and controlled. 8. Xmov is good at ________. A. hosting big events B. creating digital humans C. making traditional costumes D. building livestreaming teams 9. Which of the following are virtual hosts advantages? ①They are cheaper. ②They are more popular. ③They can work longer. ④They can sell more products. A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①③ D. ②④ 10. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. Many industries will disappear. B. Virtual characters will be widely used. C. Virtual characters will do more creative work. D. More jobs will be created in different industries. 11. What’s the passage mainly about? A. The use of virtual characters. B. The history of online shopping. C. The popularity of livestreaming. D. The development of AI companies. D Studying army ants for a living leads to a remarkable discovery of their architectural prowess (架构能力). Muratore has been studying how army ants build bridges by linking their bodies, which could help scientists understand better how to control numbers of robots. Commonly found in Central America, South America and Africa, the ants search forest floors for food in long lines. When they come across a gap (缺口), they build a bridge, linking themselves together like monkeys, and then other workers will walk on top of them. In this way, they create shortcuts to make things easier for the other ants, allowing them to collect more food. But building bridges comes at a cost. Muratore studied the ants’ decision-making and found that the ants build bridges where they get the greatest benefit (好处) for the least amount of bodies. This type of research is giving new light on the collective intelligence of army ants. Engineers have already used it in building algorithms (算法) for robots. “It was the big challenge of robotics for a long time to take a robot of parts and have that robot be able to piece itself together.” said David Hu, from Georgia Institute of Technology. “Ants make us believe that such a robot would be workable and have a lot of interesting problems to solve in the real world,” Hu said. “Ants are really able to solve these things with really, really little brainpower.” 12. Why are monkeys mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To let us know how clever ants really are. B. To better describe how ants build bridges. C. Because they live in similar environment as ants. D. Because they have similar body structures as robots. 13. Why do ants build bridges? A. To collect more food. B. To avoid getting lost. C. To better help the weak. D. To save more lives. 14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us? A. How ants decide to build bridges. B. When and where ants build bridges. C. Science behind ants’ building bridges. D. How amazing ants’ building bridges 15. What is the big challenge of robotics? A. How to make robots work with each other well. B. How to have a robot that can piece itself together. C. How to make robots work in a highly organized way. D. How to make robots build a bridge or something alike. 三、听力填词（共5小题，满分5分） 请听下面的一则通知。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表16～20空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。（通知读两遍） School Say-Goodbye Day Where In No. 16. ______ Middle School.

He became the third Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016. When creating The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya drew his idea from a famous painting, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). It was created by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty. Based on Wang, Hai created a painter named Zhao Ximeng. After many hard times, Zhao’s mind leaves his body and enters a space where a modern policeman is trying to solve a case about an ancient painting. Hai Ya’s story with science fiction began in his childhood. “When I was a child, the bookstore in my hometown helped create a beautiful garden in my mind that belonged to me only. In it, science fiction offered the most beautiful ‘flowers’. It opened a new world for me as a kid,” Hai Ya told Beijing Youth Daily. Hai Ya’s works feature a mix of history and science fiction. These two styles seem opposite: One looks back at the past, and the other faces the future. However, in Hai Ya’s works, they find a perfect balance. “If we can only imagine the future and things in space like rockets, it will only limit our imagination,” Hai Ya told Shenchen Special Zone Daily. “I don’t think history is something completely in the past. It is flowing (流动), and we can make predictions about the future by looking back at history. History is also part of our future,” he added. “More Chinese writers today are trying to mix traditional culture with modern stories. Hai Ya believes that it is not a choice but a natural process. Our history and culture have universal values (普世价值) that can touch everyone,” he said to Xinhua. 41. Which Chinese won the Hugo Award?
