Skills and qualities nceded While everyone brings their own personality to the job,there are some basic qualities that all tour guides should have: .Energy and enthusiasm are an absolute must-when the day's tour is done,a guide still needs to study commentary and confirm the next days activities,so you will often need to operate on very little sleep. A fricndly personality is needed when interacting with clients,tour operators and the general public. .An insight into a wide range of cultures helps a guide settle all kinds of issues,not only in the place beingvisited,but also among the people on the tour. Knowledge of emergency(紧急情况)procedures and the ability to remain calm in a crisis will benefit any tour guide.Your confidence as a tour leader will spread to the whole group. Know the reality Life as a tour guide often requires a long period away from home.Some find that busy times at work fall on holidays they would like to spend with loved ones. Bum-out(职业倦怠)is also a factor to consider but it does not mean the end of a career in travel.There are often positions available for roles in product development and sales within the industry;experience as a guide will stand you in good stead(对任何一名导游都有益)for these..

C January 20,2025,a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1,which has emerged as a pioneer especially in educational technology.This smart program can solve math problems,write code,and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI's GPT-40,but it costs much less to build. It combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better,like how students practice maths.DeepSeek-R1 improves by itself by using reinforcement ( learning to simulate (human reasoning.This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step,much like a patient tutor.For example,when a student struggles with a math equation,DeepSeek-RI doesn't just give the answer;it breaks down the logic,identifies errors,and encourages critical thinking. The model's applications extend beyond academics.In language learning,it analyzes students'pronunciation through AI speech recognition and offers real-time response.For teachers,DeepSeek-R1 can provide lesson plans that agree with curriculum standards and even predict students'learning difficulties based on historical data.Its "adaptive testing"feature creates customized exams that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. However,challenges remain.Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in education.DeepSeek's developers address this by emphasizing its role as a“supplement(补充)，not a replacement.”AsDr.Li,a DeepSeek researcher,stated,"Our goal is to free teachers from repctitive tasks so they can focus on inspiring creativity." Looking ahead,DeepSeck aims to bring virtual reality (VR)into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments.While ethical()debates about AI in education still exist, one thing is clear:tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we leam,combining technclogy with human wisdom. 61.What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models? A.It uses pre-programmed answers. B.It focuses on memorization techniques. C.It creates fixed test patterns for all the students. D.It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning. 62.What does the underlined word "adaptive"in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A.fixed B.adjustable C.complex D.outdated 63.What future development does DeepSeek plan to add to its platform? A.Real-time response to strengthen real-time classroom interaction. B.Virtual reality (VR)to enable immersive learning experiences. C.Advanced robotics to assist in repetitive tasks. D.New technology to secure student data. 64.What's the author's attitude towards the use of DeepSeek-R1? A.doubtful B.critical C.positive D.indifferent 65.What is the main purpose of writing the passage? A.To advertise DeepSeek products. B.To criticize the risks of DeepSeek in schools. C.To discuss the role of DeepSeek in transforming education. D.To compare different AI models. D Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advisers advise "Barbara,be enthusiastic!Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience."How right they were! "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm."Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.It is the paste ()that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,"I can do it!"When others shout,"No, you can't!"It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn't stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping. We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age.At 90, cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach.As the music flowed through his fingers,his stooped (shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuel Ulman once wrote,"Years wrinkle(起皱纹)the skin,.but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul..” Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or title or power.Patricia Mellratl,a retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,"My father, long ago,told me,I never made a fortune until I stopped working for money." If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton Wellsville,Kan,was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that troubled her for at least 30 years and the quality of her work led one critic to say,"I am tempted into a genius." We can't afford to waste tears on"might-have-been".We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after "what-can-be".We need to live each moment whole-heartedly,with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of a rainbow. 66.The author holds the view that A.enthusiasm is more important than experience B.enthusiasm can give people more success and fame C.enthusiastic people will never get old D.enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life 67.The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that A.enthusiasm can make people feel young B.music can arouse people's enthusiasm C.enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed D.enthusiasm can keep people healthy 68.According to the passage,what can we leam about Elizabeth Layton Wellsville? A.She started drawing at the age of 38 B.Drawing helped her get rid of depression. C.Her drawings were not well-received. D.She made a living by drawing. 69.How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm? A.Two B.Three C.Four D.Five 70.Which proverb may the writer agree with according to the last paragraph? A.good beginning makes a good ending. B. Don't cry over the spoiled milk. C.Love me,love my dog. D.All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共25分） 第-一部分：阅读表达（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分) When an editor wrote to offer me the task of writing a famous artist's authorized biography,I was surprised.I replied,"Me?Are you sure you have the right writer?"But that's just what I was thinking.At that point in my career, although I had written many magazine articles,I had just a few small books to my name-children's comic books,mostly. So I asked why she chose me."Due to your warmth"the editor said.Besides, the editor thought my writing style would be a good fit for that artist.Finally,I accepted the writing task.I told my friend about it and she warned me,"Just understand that celebrities will often not treat others well.They all just seem nice on television,but they'll treat you like nothing but a servant to them." Her words made me quite uncertain and anxious."What if the artist ignores me?Can I finish the writing task?Should I give up?"I thought to myself.Anyway, days later I boarded the plane to the artist's city to meet her,still overwhelmed with uncertainty and anxiety.However,these feelings melted into thin air within minutes after meeting her.My friend was wrong;this artist was an absolute sweetheart,who was humble,down-to-earth,funny and caring. She shared cookies with me.She sat on the floor with me and we chatted into the middle of the night like we were old schoolmates.During the following days, she told me a lot about her life,work,dream,etc.And I managed to have a good knowledge of her.When I finished the book,the artist's husband called to tell me
