His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages. No one could understand me, not even the cleverest of the Emperor's followers. After about two hours, the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants went also. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me. An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry.

C OpenAI has once again shocked the world with its latest creation Sora. The AI tool can produce videos up to one minute long. Just give it some text instructions, like “a Chinese New Year celebration” and you'll get a video that matches the description. Many commentaries(评论文章 )on Sora express the worry that the tool will put many filmmakers out of business. Similar worries have been voiced since the AI chatbot ChatGPT appeared. Text-to-image programmes like Dall-E and Midjourney have made headlines as well for the same reasons. Many are afraid that industries such as programming, translation, teaching and design will all disappear. It seems we can turn to AI for just about anything we want to know or do. Does that mean we no longer need to roll up our sleeves and gain knowledge and skills ourselves? Well, the short answer is "No". Even in the age of AI，knowledge is still power. In fact, the rise of AI may only require you to use your brain more. AI is knowledgeable, but for now at least, it needs instructions. In other words, you must communicate with it. Let's say you want advice on how to get a better return on your savings. If you don't know anything about finances(财务 )(if you don't even know what a “return” is), you'll have trouble asking the right questions. You also need to exercise your imagination -more actively. Take the Chinese New Year celebration video in Paragraph 1 for example. You can't depend on Sora for everything. You need to be clear about your expectations and use your language skills to describe them in as much detail as possible. Where is the celebration taking place? What performances are going on? What are the performers wearing? You may also need to be a bit professional. For example, "Throw in a close-up(特写镜头)of a dragon dancer, eyes locked on the ‘Pearl’," And keep in mind that AI can make mistakes. After an AI tool gives you an answer, you need to judge whether all the information is correct and up to date. To do this, you need at least some basic knowledge about the subjects involved(涉及). If you think the development of AI has given you the right to be lazy, it's time to stop daydreaming. Double down on your studies so that you'll be better equipped to work alongside AI. ( )33. Why do Al tools cause people's worry according to the passage? A. Because AI tools might make serious mistakes. B. Because AI tools can do anything you want to do. C. Because AI tools can only produce short videos. D. Because AI tools may make people lose jobs. ( )34. Which of the following statements is true? A. You don't have to do anything when you use AI tools. B. You may have difficulty answering Sora's questions. C. You need to give more details to make Sora work better. D. You need special knowledge to communicate with AI tools. ( )35. What is the structure of this passage?(①-Paragraph 1,②-Paragraph 2,...) ( )36. What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the passage? A. AI tools really make our life more comfortable. B. Knowledge remains important in the age of AI. C. AI tools will take the place of humans in future. D. With the AI tools, you can make wonderful nice videos. D While the mobile Internet is changing the way we live, more and more old people in China are getting in on the digital world, though they still have some trouble. Yang Su, a 61-year-old professional micro vlogger(专业视频博主 ), is among them. With more than 2.3 million followers on China's famous short video app “TikTok"， his videos have been watched by over 1 million times. “Three years ago, my son put a short video of me playing the piano at home on ‘TikTok’，and hours later it was played over 1 million times," Yang remembered. After graduating from the Shanghai Conservatory(音乐学院 ) of Music, he was a pianist of the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra(交响乐团).The Internet has opened a door to a whole new world for him. For the past three years, he has filmed over 700 short videos and opened an official account on social platform WeChat to share articles and offer online piano lessons. It's not easy for him to learn how to film a video, something that might not be easy even for young people. Spending a long time staring at the sheet music(活页乐谱 )always causes eye soreness, and he needs to play through the music since he doesn't know how to edit(编辑 )and cut clips. His child helps him a lot later. “The Internet has opened the door to a new world," Yang said. “I always keep myself busy and feel very young at my age.” However, do other old people get used to the digital world like Yang? Ding Qiulin is a 73-year-old man from Hunan,"I got my smartphone more than one year ago, but I only use WeChat for video calls," he said. Ding finds it hard to learn to use other apps.' ▲ Luo Xu, a post-90s volunteer, joined a non-profit organization in Beijing nine years ago to teach old people how to use the Internet. “While I am helping people aged between 50 and 90 years old, I have a strong feeling of satisfaction," Luo said. ( )37. How did the writer show that not all old people get used to the digital world? A. By telling a story. B. By using numbers. C. By asking a question. D. By using an example. ( )38. Which of the following can we put in “▲”? A. In fact, many other old people have the same feeling as Ding. B. However, many young people find it hard to teach the old to use the Internet. C. As a result, old people have to spend much time learning to use the smartphone. D. Luckily, younger people are building a bridge between the digital world and the old. ( )39. What did Luo Xu think of his work in the non-profit organization? A. Relaxing. B. Meaningful. C. Difficult. D. Boring. ( )40. Why did the writer write the passage? A. To tell us we should learn to make short videos like Yang. B. To explain why the mobile Internet is popular in our country. C. To show the mobile Internet 'makes a great difference to the old. D. To ask young people to spend more time caring for their parents. 四、信息还原(共 5小题;每小题 1分,满分 5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Do you enjoy walking in nature?
