It was the middle of winter some 30 years ago. I was a young father with three little children counting on me. I worked in a sawmill (锯木厂).
As I got ready to go to work I wrapped band aids around my fingers and put more in my pockets. Cutting and piling up wood for eight hours a day had caused my fingers to split (裂开) and bleed at their tips in the cold, dry winter air.
That day at work was harder than normal. We were short-handed on workers. The machines kept breaking down. We had to rush to catch up as the wood piled up. On top of that, all the heaters in the building had stopped working and we could see our breath as we spent hours working there.
When the work day finally ended, I walked wearily toward the washroom, took off my work gloves, and checked my aching fingers. The splits were worse than ever and I had bled through the band - aids again. I felt so tired. I wondered how long I could keep doing this, if things would ever get any better, and why life was so hard.
After driving home, I tried to put a smile on my face as I opened the front door. But instead, one appeared naturally. My daughter ran up to me, yelled “Daddy!” and wrapped her little arms around my neck. I lifted her up and my heart filled with love. My tired body didn’t feel so tired anymore. My aches and pains disappeared into her hug, And the joy in my heart chased the sadness away. At that moment I kissed my little girl’s cheek and held her tight. I knew I could continue and that things would get better.

C. All the heaters had stopped working. D. The machines stopped working repeatedly.

A. he was very tired B. he felt very relieved
C. he wore heavy clothes D. he was walking up and down
44. What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

45. In the story, the author wants to express that _________.
A. family can give us support B. labor work is not that hard

Have you ever wanted to see your dreams after you woke up? Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may help you do this in the near future!
Researchers from Osaka University in Japan have trained an AI system to recreate images in people’s heads. The pictures AI has created include a teddy bear, an airplane and a clock tower. The technology is 80 percent accurate, reported Science magazine.
Previously there have been AI models that can turn a word or phrase into images. The AI has studied lots of images and their text descriptions. Over time, the AI can find patterns and recreate pictures if you first input text.
This time, the researchers took a step further. They trained the AI to link people’s brain scan data with images. They asked four people to look at 10, 000 different images, and let the AI find patterns of blood flow in the brain. Then the patterns can be related to the images.
If people looked at an airplane, the AI would use the brain scan data to create an image of a very cloudy airplane. Then, it would turn on the previous “text - to - image” model. By feeding the keyword “airplane”, the AI would improve the image and make it more real.
“It’s a new method that combines textual and visual information to ‘decipher the brain’”, Ariel Goldstein from Princeton University told Science magazine.
Researchers said the technology could someday help people with paralysis to communicate. It might also help scientists understand dreams or even how other animals see the world.
46. What do we know about the AI system mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. It can help train people’s minds. B. It can fully present people’s dreams.
C. It was created for drawing people’s heads. D. It can recreate pictures in people’s heads.
47. How did the previous AI models turn phrases into images?
A. By understanding the meaning of the words.
B. By finding patterns in images and their text descriptions.
C. By drawing pictures according to users’ orders.
D. By finding different photos from the internet.
48. What is the working process of the new AI system?
A. relate with image→scan blood flow→improve the text→turn into the image
B. relate with image→turn into text→scan blood flow→improve the image
C scan blood flow→relate with image→turn into text→improve the image
D. scan blood flow→turn into text→relate with image→improve the image
49 What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How to know the way animals see the world.
B. How people with paralysis talk with others.
C. What the new AI technology could be used for.
D. How AI technology affects people’s dreams,
50. Which part of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment. B. Health.
C. Education. D. Science.

Then, it would turn on the previous “text - to - image” model. By feeding the keyword “airplane”, the AI would improve the image and make it more real. ”(如果人们看着一架飞机,人工智能会使用大脑扫描数据来创建一张模糊的图像。然后,它将打开以前的“文本到图像”模型。通过输入关键词“飞机”,人工智能将改善图像,使其更加真实)可知,正确的过程是:扫描血流—与图像关联——输入文字—改善图像,故选C项。

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
One night, during the first of my eldest son’s three basketball games, we happened to be sitting next to a lady with a young son. The little boy looked slightly younger than my youngest son. At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” My husband leaned over to tell me what he heard. I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends.
A few hours earlier, we went to a downtown cafe for an afternoon treat. There were no free tables for four, so we took a table for two, and crowded into the small space, each taking a bite of everyone else’s order. We were loud.
We were very likely annoying the college students with open laptops, drinking coffee and working hard to finish midterm papers. One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” It was a simple act but it showed a selfless heart. We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened.
These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted. Though often neglected by us, these small acts of service, friendliness and human care are what it takes to make the world go round.
51. What was heart - warming according to Paragraph 1? (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________
52. What did the lady in the cafe offer? (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________
53. What does the underlined word “neglected” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? (1 word)
________________________________________________________________________________
54. What does the author try to express through the passage? (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________
55. Which of the two stories touches you more? And give your reasons. (no more than 25 Words)
________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】51. Seeing my youngest son playing games with his new buddy.
52. To trade table with us.
53. Ignored.
54. She shouldn’t have taken everyday kindnesses for granted.
55. The first story touched me most. It tells me how easy it is to make friends and be friendly to others.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者通过两件身边发生的小事感悟到了每日都在发生着的善良的举动,认为这是世界运转所需要的。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene (接下来的20分钟里,我在球场上给大儿子拍照,小儿子和他的新伙伴在离我坐的地方两个座位的地方玩游戏。这是一个温暖人心的场景)”可知,温暖人心的场景是作者看见小儿子和她的新伙伴一起玩耍,故填Seeing my youngest son playing games with his new buddy.
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” (一位这样的年轻女士走到我们的桌子前说:“我的桌子上空间多。我很乐意和你们交换,这样你们就可以分散开坐”)”可知年轻女士主动要求交换的是桌子,故填To trade table with us.
【53题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段划线词上文“These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted (这只是我日常认为理所当然的两种善意)”可知作者认为这些善举被我们认为理所当然,从而忽视它们的存在,所以划线词的含义应为“忽视”,故填Ignored.
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends. (这是一个温暖人心的场景,提醒我结交新朋友是多么容易)”、第三段“We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened.(我们礼貌地拒绝了她的提议,但事情发生后,她的善意一直伴随着我好几个小时)”以及最后一段“These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted (这只是我日常认为理所当然的两种善意)”可推理出,作者认为自己不应该把这些善意认为理所当然,故填She shouldn’t have taken everyday kindnesses for granted.
【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” (在比赛的过程中,小家伙看着我儿子说:“想成为我的朋友吗?”)”以及“my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene (我的小儿子和他的新伙伴在离我坐的地方两个座位的地方玩游戏。这是一个温暖人心的场景)”可知,小孩子之间成为朋友很容易,而且在大人忙碌的时候,他们通过对彼此友好度过了美好的时光,因此文章中第一个故事最能打动我,我的感受是:交朋友并对他人友好是很容易的,故填The first story touched me most. It tells me how easy it is to make friends and be friendly to others.

It was the middle of winter some 30 years ago. I was a young father with three little children counting on me. I worked in a sawmill (锯木厂).
As I got ready to go to work I wrapped band aids around my fingers and put more in my pockets. Cutting and piling up wood for eight hours a day had caused my fingers to split (裂开) and bleed at their tips in the cold dry winter air.
That day at work was harder than normal. We were short-handed on workers. The machines kept breaking down. We had to rush to catch up as the wood piled up. On top of that, all the heaters in the building had stopped working and we could see our breath as we spent hours working there.
When the work day finally ended, I walked wearily toward the washroom, took off my work gloves, and checked my aching fingers. The splits were worse than ever and I had bled through the band - aids again. I felt so tired. I wondered how long I could keep doing this, if things would ever get any better, and why life was so hard.
After driving home, I tried to put a smile on my face as I opened the front door. But instead, one appeared naturally. My daughter ran up to me, yelled “Daddy!” and wrapped her little arms around my neck. I lifted her up and my heart filled with love. My tired body didn’t feel so tired anymore. My aches and pains disappeared into her hug, And the joy in my heart chased the sadness away. At that moment I kissed my little girl’s cheek and held her tight. I knew I could continue and that things would get better.

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
One night, during the first of my eldest son’s three basketball games, we happened to be sitting next to a lady with a young son. The little boy looked slightly younger than my youngest son. At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” My husband leaned over to tell me what he heard. I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends.
A few hours earlier, we went to a downtown cafe for an afternoon treat. There were no free tables for four, so we took a table for two, and crowded into the small space, each taking a bite of everyone else’s order. We were loud.
We were very likely annoying the college students with open laptops, drinking coffee and working hard to finish midterm papers. One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” It was a simple act but it showed a selfless heart. We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened.
These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted. Though often neglected by us, these small acts of service, friendliness and human care are what it takes to make the world go round.
