ChatGPT can write things really fast. We may spend hours researching (研究) and writing an article. But ChatGPT can write a good one in seconds. It can help correct grammar (语法) and spelling mistakes, and make our writing better. It is also good for the researchers from non-English speaking countries if they need to write English papers.
However, every coin has two sides. According to a study, 89 percent of US college students had used ChatGPT to write homework. So many schools ban (禁止) the robot. Students can’t utilise it for homework. Thousands of scientific journals (期刊) also have banned writers from using ChatGPT. They worry that the wrong information it creates will become junk science. And the robot doesn’t have any new or creative ideas.

A. stories B. difficulties C. people D. animals
18. What can’t ChatGPT do?
A. Talk with people. B. Write articles. C. Do homework. D. Create new ideas.

【答案】17. B 18. D 19. D 20. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了AI机器人ChatGPT的功能、优点以及其带来的问题。ChatGPT由美国OpenAI公司开发,能与人交谈、写文章、纠正语法错误等,但同时也存在学生利用其写作业、可能产生错误信息等问题,因此被一些学校和期刊禁止使用。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“He goes through many difficulties to sing among the stars.”可知,猫Max在去太空的路上遇到了很多困难。故选B。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It can talk with people, write songs, poems and even jokes.”和第四段“And the robot doesn’t have any new or creative ideas.”可知,ChatGPT可以与人交谈、写文章、讲笑话,但它没有新的或创造性的想法。因此,ChatGPT不能做的是创造新的想法。故选D。
【19题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“So many schools ban (禁止) the robot. Students can’t utilise it for homework.”可知,许多学校禁止了这个机器人,学生不能将其用于作业。结合语境,“utilise”在此处应意为“使用”。故选D。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Type in ‘A cat wants to go to the space’ and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you’ll get the story of a cat called Max.”可知,Max的故事是由ChatGPT编写的,故A选项正确。故选A。

【40题详解】
句意:Mike在会上做了演讲,所以他妈妈感到很高兴。根据“made”可知,此处描述的是过去发生的事情,因此用一般过去时,动词“feel”的过去式是“felt”。故填felt。
【41题详解】
句意:同时,他有点难过,因为他不得不和他的老朋友和老师们说再见。根据“He is a little sad”和“he has to say goodbye to his old friends and teachers”可知,前后两个句子之间是因果关系,且后句是前句的原因,因此用连词“because”表示“因为”。故填because。
【42题详解】

【44题详解】
句意:他希望长大后能成为一名艺术家。根据“artist”可知,此处表示成为一名艺术家,且“artist”以元音音素开头,因此用不定冠词“an”修饰。故填an。
【45题详解】
句意:我希望他的梦想能够实现。根据“I hope”可知,此处表示对未来的希望或祝愿,因此用一般将来时或含情态动词的将来时,即“will/can come”。故填will/can come。
七、任务型阅读(每小题2分,共10分)
阅读短文,根据要求完成文后的题目。
No. 5 Middle School asked the students to take part in (参加) a survey. The question was “What is your dream job?” There were 500 students taking part in the survey. Here are the results.

【解析】
【导语】本文主要围绕No. 5 Middle School对学生梦想职业的调查结果展开,介绍了调查情况、老师对此的感受、老师给出的关于实现梦想职业的建议,最后还提出了两个开放性问题。
【46题详解】
根据文章内容,在描述调查结果时提到不同职业受学生欢迎的程度,其中“movie star”是提到且占比最高(最受欢迎)的职业,故填Movie star.
【47题详解】
根据“The teachers may feel bad to know that only 5% of the students hope to teach in the future.”,即老师得知只有5%的学生希望将来当老师所以可能会感觉不好,故填Because only 5% of the students hope to teach in the future。
【48题详解】
根据“before you try to get your dream job, you should study hard and make yourself better and better.”,即学生在获得梦想职业之前应该努力学习并让自己变得越来越好,故填They should study hard and make themselves better and better.
【49题详解】
“But they will still try their best to help the students make their dreams come true.”中,“But”表示转折,“still”意为“仍然”,“try their best”是“尽他们最大努力”,“help the students”是“帮助学生”,“make their dreams come true”是“使他们的梦想成真”,故填:但是他们将仍然会尽他们最大的努力帮助学生实现他们的梦想。
【50题详解】
这是一个开放性问题,答案因人而异。回答时需要先说出自己的梦想职业,再说明为了实现这个梦想自己打算怎么做,故填My dream job is to be a scientist. I will keep on studying hard at math.
