Five years is enough to compare yourself now and then. I think that I have changed a lot in the past five years. Firstly, there are changes in my thoughts. Five years ago my thoughts were the same as a child’s. I believed that the world was a place without problems. I thought that I could always have time for games and friends wouldn’t change. Also I was sure that if I had any problems, my parents could always be around me, offering help. Now I still believe that the world is a great place to live in, but sometimes there are different problems you have to face. And at times you have to deal with these problems alone without any help. And that is one of the changes that have happened to me in the past five years. Now I’m much more responsible (有责任的) and serious than five years ago. Secondly, there are some changes in my interests. Now I spend less time with friends and I spend most of my time studying for exams. Five years ago, it wasn’t so. I believed that there was nothing more important than watching cartoon movies during those days. Although I have changed in some ways, there are some similar ways between now and then. For example, I still like spending time with friends. And I am still sure that childhood is the best time in our life. 1．The writer used to think the world was a place . 2．The writer liked to best five years ago. 3．During the five years, the writer’s have changed a lot. 4．From the passage, we know the writer became more now. 5．Do you think changes are good or bad for us?

It first appeared over 3, 000 years ago and represents China’s solo musical instrument tradition. At first, the gugin had only five strings, representing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Later, in the Zhou dynasty, King Wen of Zhou added a sixth string for his son. King Wu of Zhou added a seventh string to encourage his army to fight with the Shang. Ambience (环境气氛) was important in playing the Chinese zither. Usually, it was practiced in quiet setting and never for public performance. Ancient artists enjoyed performing by a stream in the mountains. The sound of the guqin mixed with the echoes (回音) from the mountains, until the musician found himself at one with nature. Playing it in snow was also a favorite pastime for ancient artists, who believed the instrument was the purest of its kind in the world. Also, a night with moonlight was considered ideal for playing the guqin. Wang Wei (701-761), a great poet of the Tang dynasty, liked playing it in a bamboo forest on nights with moonlight. Guqin pieces are usually around three to eight minutes long, with the longest being Guangling Verse, which is 22 minutes long. Other famous pieces include Plum Blossoms in Three Movements, Wild Geese Landing on the Sandbank and Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute. Nowadays, there are fewer than one thousand well-trained guqin players and perhaps no more than fifty living masters. The original number of several thousand pieces has greatly reduced to only a hundred works by today. The guqin and its music was added to the list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (人类非物质文化遗产) in 2003. 1．Guqin, one of the four arts, has a history of . 2．Guqin was always played in quiet setting and wasn’t used for . 3．Ancient artists enjoyed playing the guqin by a stream in mountains, or on a night with moonlight. 4． pieces of famous guqin works are mentioned in Paragraph 5. 5．What can we do to help spread the guqin culture? Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·贵州长顺县·期中） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容填空。(1-4题每空不超过3个词，5题回答问题） There were several kinds of greetings in ancient China. Among them, the fist-and-palm salute (拱手礼) was quite common. Today, though Chinese would usually shake hands when meeting friends, people would still make fist-and-palm salutes when they are paying a visit to someone during the traditional Chinese New Year or attending someone’s birthday reception. The fist-and-palm salute is typical Chinese etiquette (礼节) with a history of more than 3,000 years. In ancient times, if people met a stranger, their hands were always ready to hold together. Holding hands together showed that people could feel relaxed. Later it became the etiquette when meeting each other and showing thanks. In modern China, the fist-and-palm salute has been used a lot on traditional occasions. The gesture of the fist-and-palm salute: Firstly, stand straight. If you are a man, let your right hand be a half fist, and then your left hand hold your right hand in front of your chest. Watch each other in the eyes, raise both of your hands to your brow, bent down and shake your hands toward each other gently for three times. Meanwhile, you could say some lucky greeting words such as “gong xi fa cai (Wish you much money)”, “ni hao (Hello)”, “xing hui (Nice to meet you)”, “xin nian kuai le (Happy New Year)” according to different occasions. It’s believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history, while for women, the important side is the right. So, if you are a woman, you should make the fist-and-palm salute in the other way—put your right hand on your left hand. At last, please remember when someone makes the fist-and-palm salute to you, you need to do it back as well.    1．The fist-and-palm salute has a history of . 2．In modern China, on traditional occasions Chinese have used to greet a lot. 3．In ancient China, a woman should put on the left one when making the fist-and-palm salute to others. 4．Men’s fist-and-palm salute is women’s. 5．If someone makes the fist-and-palm salute to you, what do you need to do?

It has been a traditional art for more than 1,000 years— since the Song Dynasty. As its name means, the traditional art was created by the way of making iron (铁). It was seen as a way of celebration. When villagers open a business or get married, they invite Liu and his team to celebrate the big activity and hope the show can bring them good luck. For Liu and the villagers in Shanxi, Datiehua is one of the most popular Spring Festival shows, just like the Yangko dance and drum beating. Liu says they need to heat the iron for about 40 minutes before the show starts and the temperature must be higher than 1,500 ℃. When night falls, the show starts. Using a big long spoon, a man takes out the molten (熔化的) iron, and then he hits the spoon with a piece of wood. Bang! Bang! The red-hot molten iron becomes beautiful “stars”. These shining “stars” light up the night sky. In some ways, they can be more beautiful. People sit or stand to watch the show with happy smiles on their faces. Behind the wonderful show, however, is great danger. The artists wear hats and sheepskin coats so that they won’t get hurt, but accidents still happen. During a show in Henan, Liu’s face got hurt. “People ask me why I’m still doing it since it’s so dangerous.

It carries countless cultural information and plays an important role in spreading traditional culture. It was once popular in printing history and can date back to the Tang dynasty. The invention is based on the early copy technology during the Tang Dynasty. The stops of woodblock printing are divided into three parts: engraving (雕刻), ink applying, and bookbinding. First, choose a piece of smooth wooden board and engrave the text on the woodblock. Engrave every word and leave a little space. Second, print out the text. Brush the engraved board with ink, and put the paper on the surface of the board. And then put the hand over the back of the paper. The text will “jump onto the paper”. The third step is bookbinding. People turn it into a book through collecting printed paper. At present, the earliest block-printed thing that can be seen is the block-printed Diamond Sutra (《金刚经》) of the Tang dynasty. It was found in Dunhuang and was printed in 868 AD．The printing process is very wonderful. Woodblock printing has many advantages, so it quickly took the place of hand copying. Its biggest advantage is that a woodblock can be used again for printing. Also, it requires less work so it helps people to save more time. The use of woodblock printing is helpful to increase the number of books. Besides, it is a useful tool to push culture development forward.

Without it, we’d pretty much be lost at sea. That’s why it is considered as one of the most important inventions. But where does it come from? The compass can date back even to the Warring States Period (475 to 221 BC), when the Chinese discovered the magnetic properties (磁性) of certain stones. But thanks to Shen Kuo, the magnetic compass developed as a tool to guide the direction. Shen Kuo created an improved compass. It was a great improvement over the earlier Chinese navigational tool, the South-Pointing Spoon. While the spoon could only let people know the south direction, Shen Kuo’s compass provided a useful method for making sure of any basic direction. Besides being used for maritime navigation (航海), Shen Kuo also discovered the compass’s use in other activities. Shen Kuo’s work had a lasting influence on Chinese scientific and technological development.

In 1952, more than 4,000 people died in London because of the smog. The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and factories and the situation improved a lot. Today, London is much cleaner but there is a new problem: smog from cars. In December 1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a result, about 160 people died from pollution in just four days. Part of the problem is the new “out of town” shopping centers. In the past, people often walked to shops near their homes or went by bus. Now, many people drive to the new shopping centers. As a result, the small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do their shopping. Critics say that Britain needs better and cheaper public transport. Transport in Britain is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London (about 600km) can cost about 100 pounds for example. A short 15-minute bus trip can cost over 1.00 pound.

The canopy（树冠）is the top layer of the trees where most of the animals live. These trees can be more than 30 meters high and it is the noisiest layer of the rainforest. The middle layer is under the canopy and has some shorter trees. The third layer is the forest floor. It has very little sunlight and is the quietest layer of the rainforest. It can take ten minutes for a falling raindrop to travel from a rainforest’s thick canopy to the floor.

Today’s story is about that. It’s a story of a famous saying about the swan feather (天鹅羽毛) in China. This saying comes from a historic book called Lushi. A Tang Dynasty officer in Yunnan wanted to show his respect (尊重) to the emperor. He sent Mian Bogao to take some gifts to the emperor. One of the gifts was a beautiful swan. It was a very valuable gift at that time. Mian took good care of the swan on his way to the palace. One day, he walked for a long time with the swan. He wanted to let the swan drink some water by a lake. But as soon as he set the swan free, the swan flew away, only leaving some feathers on the ground. Mian was very worried, but he didn’t run away. He decided to tell the emperor the truth. He thought telling lies could lead to more trouble in the end. So he picked up a feather and kept going on his trip. When Mian met the emperor, he told him what had happened and said, “This swan feather is light, but it carries my deep respect for you. “ The emperor was moved by Mian’s honesty and sincerity (真诚). He wasn’t angry with Mian. The saying shows that a good gift doesn’t have to be expensive. Actually, honesty and sincerity are more valuable.

That’s because saving creates opportunities and opens the door to all kinds of adventures. The key to successful saving is setting a goal. Get a pen and paper, and write down how much it costs, then work out how much you can afford to save each week and how long it will take you to reach your goal. It’s important to be realistic (现实的) because you’ll soon get bored if you plan to save every single penny. Some weeks you might decide to save a little more than planned so that you can reach your goals even faster. To avoid accidentally spending your savings, it’s a good idea to keep them separate from the rest of your money. You could do this by using a money box or a savings account (账号). When you save your money in a savings account, you have the opportunity to earn interest. This is money that a bank pays you for leaving the money there. The longer you leave money in the account, the more interest you will earn. Some savings accounts allow you to take out money whenever you like, but some will keep your money locked away for a certain time. Some parents set up a savings account because they want to put some money away for their kids’ future. Once you get the hang of saving, you can get some more bigger goals. Perhaps you want to start saving for university, or you’d like to travel the world when you finish school. Remember, as some of your goals might take months or even years to achieve. If you’re new to saving, start off by thinking of some fun goals, like taking a vacation or going to a concert.

Passage 3 （24-25九年级上·贵州黔东南州·期中） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容填空和回答问题。（1至4题每题答案不超过3个单词，5题须用完整句子回答。） “How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. However, it’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” expects to hear the answer “Fine.” even if the person isn’t fine. They are common ways of saying “hello” or “hi”. Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person may be thinking, “No, I don’t. I think you’re wrong.” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” This is a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse may be real, or not. The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, of finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language. 1．“How are you?” is just a of saying “hello” or “hi”. 2．If you have a different idea from that of someone else, it is polite to say “I’m not ⁠.” 3．When you want to hang up, there are three mentioned in the passage. 4．A suitable excuse is not only polite, but also won’t hurt others’ . 5．Is it necessary to be polite? Why or why not? 主题 02人与社会——历史、社会与文化 Passage 1 （24-25九年级上·贵州黔东南州·期中） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容填空和回答问题。（1-4题每题答案不超过3个单词，5题须用完整句子回答。） If you were a little screw (螺丝), could you stick to your post (岗位) forever? Lei Feng answered this question with his service to our country. Lei Feng was a soldier. During the 22 years when he was alive, he helped many people. He carried luggage (行李) for the elderly and gave food to children. He once gave all his money to his friend’s sick parents. He darned (缝补) pants and socks for other soldiers. Lei Feng seldom spoke about what he did. After he died in 1962, people found his diary and learned about him. He became a symbol of the giving spirit. “There is a limit to one’s life, but no limit to serving the people,” Lei Feng said. In 1963, President Mao Zedong called on the nation to learn from Lei Feng, and each year’s March 5th has been named as “Lei Feng Day”. On that day, students do all kinds of volunteer work to learn from the role model. This year, some fifth graders in Shijiazhuang put the shared bikes along the road in order. Students from a primary school in Dalian told Lei Feng’s stories to others. “I think Lei Feng is so selfless and great that I want to help others by doing small things like him.” said Li Huaye, one of the students. Lei Feng passed away more than 60 years ago, but “Lei Feng Spirit” still leads Chinese people to do volunteer work. President Xi Jinping said, “Lei Feng is the backbone (脊梁) of our nation.

Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·贵州安顺市关岭县·期中） Many traditional woodcut prints are either black and white or simple in color, but the reduction woodcut (绝版木刻) can show rich colors. The reduction woodcut uses one piece of wood to make a colorful artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers (层) in order on the same piece of wood. The reduction woodcut became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in Pu’er, Yunnan, in 2009. Leng Guangmian is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started learning it in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut on the wood and then print, we never know what it will be like in the end. As I see beautiful patterns layer by layer, I get very excited,” added Leng. But finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for the whole print and choose colors for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish. Leng wants his artwork to show both great woodcutting skills and the culture and life in Pu’er. “For my works, there are two themes: Tea Horse Road, because Pu’er is one of the starting places of that road; and disappearing villages,” Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu’er need rebuilding, so I want to make people remember their beauty before they are gone.” Leng Guangmian is now getting more people to know about the reduction woodcut. He trains farmers in Pu’er and brings the art into schools. To make students understand and learn the art quickly, he even thought of a new idea of cardboard (纸板) printing. “By using a small cardboard and making it simpler with three to five colors, students can get the beauty of the art,” Leng said. 1．The reduction woodcut has become an intangible cultural heritage for by now. 2．Leng feels when he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer. 3．Leng’s artworks show both and the culture and life in Pu’er. 4．Leng makes more know the reduction woodcut by in Pu’er and bringing it into schools. 5．Do you think Leng’s new idea of cardboard printing is good or not?

The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month. Watching lanterns is a great event. You can see lanterns in different sizes and shapes, from animals to plants. To make this activity more interesting, people stick riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. In some places, people like flying sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless (祝福) family members and make wishes. Releasing (释放) river lights is also a way to bless others. In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, watching lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other.

People can ask the robot to write stories and emails, create instructions for cooking a certain food, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in a large amount of Internet text to help users get human-like text.” Compared with Siri or other chatbots, ChatGPT uses a much bigger information center for training. It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct itself. “It’s a totally different chatbot,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University told Tianjin Daily. “The knowledge level ChatGPT shows is the same as a university student. That’s why it shocked the world.” But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or it doesn’t give correct information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an essay (论文), it “gave out many examples which other writers actually hadn’t mentioned at all”, he told The Guardian. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with. 1．ChatGPT can be used to write stories, create instructions for cooking a certain food, and answer questions. 2．The differences between ChatGPT and other chatbots are that ChatGPT uses a much bigger information center for training and stronger software and hardware by itself. 3．ChatGPT shocked the world because the knowledge level ChatGPT shows is the same as . 4．The big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or gives . 5．What do you think of ChatGPT?

But some people think scanning QR codes feels like a burden now in our everyday life. First, it takes more time. In the past, ordering food at a restaurant was simple—just talk to the waiter! Now, you might need to take out your phone and scan a QR code to follow a restaurant or an official account (公众号). If there’s no Internet, you can’t even do that.

Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at traveling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels(燃料), and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon. The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine(发动机). Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuels. The water engine will use steam, created by solar panels that heat water to a high temperature. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry·a lot of water for the long trip to Mars. One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material. Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air. “Balloon” spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the “Balloon” spaceships, enough water could be carried to power the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even be able to take a hot bath! Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. The “Balloon” spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into balloon spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water. 1．The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to “ ”. 2．The water engine will use steam to push spaceships instead of . 3．“Balloon” spaceships need to carry for a long trip. 4．The biggest advantage of a water-powered spaceship is that it is than a normal spaceship. 5．If you want to travel to Mars one day, how will you get there? 1 / 35 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题06 任务型阅读 主题 01 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （24-25九年级上·贵州黔南州·期中） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容完成表格和回答问题。（1至4题每题答案不超过3个单词，5题须用完整句子回答） During the years, people change a lot.

It first appeared over 3, 000 years ago and represents China’s solo musical instrument tradition. At first, the gugin had only five strings, representing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Later, in the Zhou dynasty, King Wen of Zhou added a sixth string for his son. King Wu of Zhou added a seventh string to encourage his army to fight with the Shang. Ambience (环境气氛) was important in playing the Chinese zither. Usually, it was practiced in quiet setting and never for public performance. Ancient artists enjoyed performing by a stream in the mountains. The sound of the guqin mixed with the echoes (回音) from the mountains, until the musician found himself at one with nature. Playing it in snow was also a favorite pastime for ancient artists, who believed the instrument was the purest of its kind in the world. Also, a night with moonlight was considered ideal for playing the guqin. Wang Wei (701-761), a great poet of the Tang dynasty, liked playing it in a bamboo forest on nights with moonlight. Guqin pieces are usually around three to eight minutes long, with the longest being Guangling Verse, which is 22 minutes long. Other famous pieces include Plum Blossoms in Three Movements, Wild Geese Landing on the Sandbank and Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute. Nowadays, there are fewer than one thousand well-trained guqin players and perhaps no more than fifty living masters. The original number of several thousand pieces has greatly reduced to only a hundred works by today.

In modern China, the fist-and-palm salute has been used a lot on traditional occasions. The gesture of the fist-and-palm salute: Firstly, stand straight. If you are a man, let your right hand be a half fist, and then your left hand hold your right hand in front of your chest.

It’s believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history, while for women, the important side is the right.

Today, London is much cleaner but there is a new problem: smog from cars. In December 1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot.

That’s because saving creates opportunities and opens the door to all kinds of adventures. The key to successful saving is setting a goal. Get a pen and paper, and write down how much it costs, then work out how much you can afford to save each week and how long it will take you to reach your goal. It’s important to be realistic (现实的) because you’ll soon get bored if you plan to save every single penny. Some weeks you might decide to save a little more than planned so that you can reach your goals even faster. To avoid accidentally spending your savings, it’s a good idea to keep them separate from the rest of your money. You could do this by using a money box or a savings account (账号). When you save your money in a savings account, you have the opportunity to earn interest. This is money that a bank pays you for leaving the money there. The longer you leave money in the account, the more interest you will earn. Some savings accounts allow you to take out money whenever you like, but some will keep your money locked away for a certain time. Some parents set up a savings account because they want to put some money away for their kids’ future. Once you get the hang of saving, you can get some more bigger goals. Perhaps you want to start saving for university, or you’d like to travel the world when you finish school. Remember, as some of your goals might take months or even years to achieve. If you’re new to saving, start off by thinking of some fun goals, like taking a vacation or going to a concert.

However, it’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” expects to hear the answer “Fine.” even if the person isn’t fine. They are common ways of saying “hello” or “hi”. Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person may be thinking, “No, I don’t. I think you’re wrong.” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” This is a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse may be real, or not. The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, of finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language. 1．“How are you?” is just a of saying “hello” or “hi”. 2．If you have a different idea from that of someone else, it is polite to say “I’m not ⁠.” 3．When you want to hang up, there are three mentioned in the passage. 4．A suitable excuse is not only polite, but also won’t hurt others’ . 5．Is it necessary to be polite?

Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·贵州安顺市关岭县·期中） Many traditional woodcut prints are either black and white or simple in color, but the reduction woodcut (绝版木刻) can show rich colors. The reduction woodcut uses one piece of wood to make a colorful artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers (层) in order on the same piece of wood. The reduction woodcut became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in Pu’er, Yunnan, in 2009. Leng Guangmian is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started learning it in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut on the wood and then print, we never know what it will be like in the end. As I see beautiful patterns layer by layer, I get very excited,” added Leng. But finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for the whole print and choose colors for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish. Leng wants his artwork to show both great woodcutting skills and the culture and life in Pu’er. “For my works, there are two themes: Tea Horse Road, because Pu’er is one of the starting places of that road; and disappearing villages,” Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu’er need rebuilding, so I want to make people remember their beauty before they are gone.” Leng Guangmian is now getting more people to know about the reduction woodcut. He trains farmers in Pu’er and brings the art into schools. To make students understand and learn the art quickly, he even thought of a new idea of cardboard (纸板) printing. “By using a small cardboard and making it simpler with three to five colors, students can get the beauty of the art,” Leng said. 1．The reduction woodcut has become an intangible cultural heritage for by now. 2．Leng feels when he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer. 3．Leng’s artworks show both and the culture and life in Pu’er. 4．Leng makes more know the reduction woodcut by in Pu’er and bringing it into schools. 5．Do you think Leng’s new idea of cardboard printing is good or not?

People can ask the robot to write stories and emails, create instructions for cooking a certain food, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in a large amount of Internet text to help users get human-like text.” Compared with Siri or other chatbots, ChatGPT uses a much bigger information center for training. It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct itself. “It’s a totally different chatbot,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University told Tianjin Daily. “The knowledge level ChatGPT shows is the same as a university student. That’s why it shocked the world.” But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or it doesn’t give correct information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an essay (论文), it “gave out many examples which other writers actually hadn’t mentioned at all”, he told The Guardian. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with. 1．ChatGPT can be used to write stories, create instructions for cooking a certain food, and answer questions. 2．The differences between ChatGPT and other chatbots are that ChatGPT uses a much bigger information center for training and stronger software and hardware by itself. 3．ChatGPT shocked the world because the knowledge level ChatGPT shows is the same as . 4．The big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or gives . 5．What do you think of ChatGPT? 【答案】1．translate languages 2．to learn things 3．a university student 4．incorrect information/false information 5．I think ChatGPT is a great tool.

Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at traveling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels(燃料), and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon. The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine(发动机). Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuels. The water engine will use steam, created by solar panels that heat water to a high temperature. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry·a lot of water for the long trip to Mars. One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material. Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air. “Balloon” spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the “Balloon” spaceships, enough water could be carried to power the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even be able to take a hot bath! Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. The “Balloon” spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into balloon spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water. 1．The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to “ ”. 2．The water engine will use steam to push spaceships instead of . 3．“Balloon” spaceships need to carry for a long trip. 4．The biggest advantage of a water-powered spaceship is that it is than a normal spaceship. 5．If you want to travel to Mars one day, how will you get there? 【答案】1．today’s spaceships 2．burning fuels/fuels 3．enough water 4．cheaper/much cheaper 5．I’ll get there in a spaceship powered by water. 【来源】贵州省贵阳市多区联考2023-2024学年九年级上学期期中考试英语试题 【导语】本文主要介绍了以水为动力的宇宙飞船的情况。 1．根据“Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space”可知，“they”指代上文中提到的“today’s spaceships”。故填today’s spaceships。 2．根据“Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuels.
