Dear editor,
I live in a beautiful city. Many visitors come to my city. There are so many colorful peacocks(孔雀) here. The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square. Visitors give food to them freely. They usually throw food to them, and don’t think about at all whether the food is right or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors. I’m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds, but don’t realize(意识到) that they may be doing them harm (伤害). We should tell the visitors what have done is very harmful to the birds, and we must stop this kind of thing from happening. Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food. For us every person, it’s our duty to give more love to these beautiful birds and to look after them carefully.

Recently Google has announced a series of new artificial intelligence (Al) (人工智能) tools designed to help users in organizing emails and creating business writings and meetings. These tools display important AI development progress in recent years. The tools are built by putting a great deal of data (数据) into machine learning computer systems. The data trains the AI systems to develop skills and produce human-like results.
The technology received wide attention last year after a company called OpenAI announced a free writing tool called ChatGPT. That tool can quickly produce human-quality writings. Experts(专家) say such systems may bring great changes to many different industries and jobs. Now some companies are able to test Google’s new tools in their development and business activities.
Like ChatGPT, Google’s AI tools are designed to create completely written texts for many different purposes. For example, an office worker could enter some keywords of a kind of text they want. The tools could then create a full marketing email, training materials or a business plan in a while. Google sees the system being able to offer an “AI Helper” to help human workers in real time. Google wants to have its AI change the work of lawyers, scientists, teachers and more.
However, Google says it keeps developing AI products of high quality. That is why the company is inviting groups of “trusted testers” to use its AI tools rather than widely selling its new products. Google’s new AI tools are the company’s latest move to fight for business. Companies like Microsoft and Meta are also working on products about AI.
Technology experts have warned that while the new AI tools can produce human-like writings, the systems can also make mistakes.
Last month, Bard, Google’s new AI tool designed to give a better online search, made a mistake and caused a $100-billion drop. Microsoft users said the company’s new AI tools produced unfriendly and rude results.
21. Which company offers an AI tool producing human-quality writings for free?
A. Meta. B. Google. C. Microsoft. D. OpenAI.
22. Google’s new AI tools can help users _________.
A. develop skills and produce human-like robots
B. create a complete business plan in a very short time
C. put a lot of data into any company’s computer system
D. send and receive emails at different business meetings
23. Google keeps developing AI products of high quality by _________.
A. asking experts from all industries for help
B. working together with Microsoft and Meta
C. allowing trusted testers to use new products first
D. widely selling its new products as soon as possible
24. What is the relationship between the last two paragraphs?
A. Paragraph 6 gives an example to support Paragraph 5.
B. The two paragraphs have different ideas about AI tools.
C. Paragraph 5 gives a good example to support Paragraph 6.
D. Paragraph 5 is the purpose of what happens in Paragraph 6.
25. From the passage, we know _________.
A. “AI Helper” cannot change scientists’ work
B. Google’s AI tools display recent AI development
C few companies can test Google’s new tools in business
D. Google will stop fighting for business with new AI tools

C
Recently Google has announced a series of new artificial intelligence (Al) (人工智能) tools designed to help users in organizing emails and creating business writings and meetings. These tools display important AI development progress in recent years. The tools are built by putting a great deal of data (数据) into machine learning computer systems. The data trains the AI systems to develop skills and produce human-like results.
The technology received wide attention last year after a company called OpenAI announced a free writing tool called ChatGPT. That tool can quickly produce human-quality writings. Experts(专家) say such systems may bring great changes to many different industries and jobs. Now some companies are able to test Google’s new tools in their development and business activities.
Like ChatGPT, Google’s AI tools are designed to create completely written texts for many different purposes. For example, an office worker could enter some keywords of a kind of text they want. The tools could then create a full marketing email, training materials or a business plan in a while. Google sees the system being able to offer an “AI Helper” to help human workers in real time. Google wants to have its AI change the work of lawyers, scientists, teachers and more.
However, Google says it keeps developing AI products of high quality. That is why the company is inviting groups of “trusted testers” to use its AI tools rather than widely selling its new products. Google’s new AI tools are the company’s latest move to fight for business. Companies like Microsoft and Meta are also working on products about AI.
Technology experts have warned that while the new AI tools can produce human-like writings, the systems can also make mistakes.
Last month, Bard, Google’s new AI tool designed to give a better online search, made a mistake and caused a $100-billion drop. Microsoft users said the company’s new AI tools produced unfriendly and rude results.
21. Which company offers an AI tool producing human-quality writings for free?
A. Meta. B. Google. C. Microsoft. D. OpenAI.
22. Google’s new AI tools can help users _________.
A. develop skills and produce human-like robots

23. Google keeps developing AI products of high quality by _________.
A. asking experts from all industries for help
B. working together with Microsoft and Meta
C. allowing trusted testers to use new products first
D. widely selling its new products as soon as possible
24. What is the relationship between the last two paragraphs?
A. Paragraph 6 gives an example to support Paragraph 5.
B. The two paragraphs have different ideas about AI tools.
C. Paragraph 5 gives a good example to support Paragraph 6.
D. Paragraph 5 is the purpose of what happens in Paragraph 6.

【导语】本文主要讲述了作者如何改变不健康的生活习惯,逐步建立起健康的生活方式。
【36题详解】
句意:我知道我需要改变我的习惯。need to do sth需要做某事,动词不定式作宾语。故填to change。
【37题详解】
句意:我花太多时间在电脑上,而且饮食不健康。spend time on sth“花时间在某物上”,故填on。
【38题详解】
句意:尽管我的父母总是为我做健康的饭菜,但是我经常在两餐之间吃垃圾食品。根据“my parents always cooked healthy meals for me, I often ate junk food between”可知,前后句是让步关系,可以用although或though引导让步状语从句。故填Although/Though。
【39题详解】
句意:尽管我的父母总是为我做健康的饭菜,但是我经常在两餐之间吃垃圾食品。根据“between”可知,指的是两餐之间,应用复数名词。故填meals。
【40题详解】
句意:我停止这样做,很快就变瘦了。空处修饰动词,需要用副词quickly。故填quickly。
【41题详解】

【44题详解】

【45题详解】
句意:这一切都表明,如果有人想改变,他就能做到!这是一个if引导的条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现” 原则,即主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时表将来。“if someone wants to change”是从句,用一般现在时,所以主句“he...it!”要用一般将来时,其结构为“will + 动词原形”,故填will make。
