I was born in a small town in Pakistan called Quetta in 1980.When I was a little
boy of about ten years old.I developed an interest in calligraphy.Back then we only
had a TV channel with limited programs,One of the programs was about learning
calligraphy.I was engaged and spent several years learning different calligraphy
scripts(笔迹)in the Urdu language.
After graduation,I came to Dubai,UAE.Falling in love with the architecture
and high-rise buildings,I wanted to shoot the amazing beauty from different angles.
So I bought a camera and learned photography,joined photography groups and
attended workshops.After few years,I got bored of photographing landscapes and
cityscapes.
Seven years ago,while going through the photography blogs and looking
through others'works.I read the term called "light painting".a photography
technique that allows you to draw in space.I started experimenting with that and soon
it hit me:why not bring back my passion for calligraphy using light painting
technique?Sinee that day.I've been drawing light calligraphy.To achieve the best
results.I decided to build the lights myself.The best part about my work is that they
are not photoshopped.I prefer to get the results straight out of the camera.I don't
even turn over the images.To achieve that,I have to write in reverse (and that
took a lot of practice to get it right.
Currently,I'm working on the idea of bringing abandoned places back to life,
including buildings which have lost their charm and are hidden in darkness.Through
第4页,共12页
my photography,I try to employ light calligraphy by writing a word that attaches a
deep meaning to those places and telling stories behind them.In this way,I hope
people will revisit these places and appreciate the real reason for their construction.
24.What can be implied from the author's experience in Quetta?
A.He had access to plenty art resources.
B.He was fond of calligraphy channels.
C.He grasped scripts of many languages.
D.He was willing to dig into calligraphy.
25.What made the author interested in taking pictures in Dubai?
A.Visual impacts of structures.
B.Remarkable urban planning.
C.Mysterious building stories.
D.Odd angles of architecture.
26.How did the author enhance the effects of light calligraphy?

Until now it has been impossible to understand the human mind,but new
biometric(生物计量的)tools are changing this.Assuming people agree to let these
technologies observe them,researchers can collect real-time facial expressions and
eye movements with a camera,and therefore discern hidden information from
people's faces when they are engaged with different urban scenes.
Our research group at Tufts University has conducted a number of facial
analysis and eye-tracking studies,using iMotions facial coding software to track 51
participants'real-time visual attention and facial expressions in response to images
and videos of Memorial Drive in Cambridge.We captured similar images of the same
road with and without cars and compared our participants'emotional reactions to both
types of images.The system records a person's eye movements and facial expressions
with a camera.Then the biometric software uses a method to score whether a
participant displayed positive,negative or neutral(无倾向的)emotions based on
slight movements in their facial muscles.
In its results,although our participants expressed neutral emotions in response
to the images 85 percent of the time,participants spent on average 0.4 percent more
time expressing positive emotions in response to car-free images and videos.The
第5页,共12页
small difference is important because even a still image can tell us something worth
considering.And after several researches,we did find that cars absorbed people
naturally,but people's emotional responses are more negative while looking at them.
Scientists and urban planners globally are beginning to improve biometric tools
to understand how people react to urban and architectural elements.Humans have
developed to survive in dangerous environments,so every part of a space can make us
feel safe or threatened.
Natural elements like trees and bushes are less foreign to our brain than
car-related things like roadways and traffic lights.Furthermore,natural design
elements make it easier for humans to relax and enjoy their surroundings.Car-free
spaces are important in community building.This new research is helping to
demonstrate that and strengthen the case for more of them.
28.What does the underlined word"discern"in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Recognize.B.Spread.
C.Promote.
D.Transport.
29.How does the biometric software tell participants'emotions?
A.By collecting facial expressions.
B.By watching their body movements.
C.By analyzing their facial musele movements.
D.By asking them to report their feelings.
30.What can be learned about the research from paragraph 3?
A.Cars made participants feel happy and thrilled.
B.A still image might produce more obvious results than videos.
C.Most participants felt neutral about the research they engaged in.
D.Participants were likely to be drawn to images and videos with cars.
31.What does the text mainly talk about?
A.Biometric tools help to track human emotions.
B.Biometric tools are used to create car-free spaces.
C.Biometrics help understand how people feel about city spaces
D.Biometrics can tell the relations between cars and human mind.

A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their
simple and straightforward images,emotions and themes.
In a recent experiment,the researchers tasked OpenAI's ChatGPT with
generating poems in the styles of famous poets,then presented 1,634 participants with
ten poems-five human-written and five chatbot-generated-and assessed how
people rated the poems based on 14 qualities,including rhythm and originality.
Interestingly,they tended to rate the Al-generated poems higher on average,
第6页,共12页
suggesting a preference for their straightforwardness and clarity
Why readers.seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear,but the
researchers'best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are
relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend."Emily Dickinson sometimes
breaks the expected rhyme scheme (on purpose,"says Brian Porter,a
researcher at the University of Pittsburgh,"But the AI-generated poems in her style
never did that once."Besides,modern readers don't seem to want to bother
themselves to read deep to think critically.Instead,they prefer texts giving them
instant answers."When readers say they prefer AI poetry,they would seem to be
showing their frustration when faced with writing that does not yield to their attention,"
he adds.
While the findings raise concerns about AI potentially replacing human artists
and putting them out of work one day,Dorothea Lasky,the only living poet whose
writings were included in the experiments,says it's not necessarily a bad thing that
readers enjoyed the AI-generated poems."Poetry will always be necessary,"Lasky
says,"If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem,
then that,to me,is beautiful.They have a good experience with a poem,and I don't
care who wrote it.I feel there is room for all poets-even robot poets."
This study provided a platform for the intersection of technology and creativity,
prompting reflection on the future of poetry and artistic expression.
32.Why did the researchers conduct the experiment?
A.To create a technique.
B.To clarify a concept.
C.To detail an example.
D.To confirm a finding.
33.What does the example of Emily Dickinson imply?
A.Robots are more complicated than humans.
B.AI meets modern readers'reading preference.
C.Chatbot is trained to write in creative patterns.
D.Classic poetry lacks unique charming features
34.Which belief does Dorothea Lasky have about poetry?
A.All flowers bloom together.
B.No dish suits all tastes.
C.It's no use crying over spilt milk.D.Time and tide wait for no man.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Will Poets Be lost in AI Era?
B.ChatGPT:a New Advancement
C.Fake or Real-a Concern about AI
D.ChatGPT or Dickinson,Who is better?

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项
中有两项为多余选项
For most of us,it's pretty easy to stand up for someone else.But when it's about
ourselves,we often struggle-thinking it's selfish,rude,or unkind to speak up for our
own needs.
.36 So how do you shift from championing others to becoming
your own advocate?
Building self-worth is the foundation.Just as financial health depends on saving
more than you spend,self-worth grows when we keep more of ourselves than we give
away.This"currency of self'isn't limitless-it's earned,spent,and invested.37
Giving them to things or people that drain you is bound to leave you running on
empty.
Boundaries are the guardrails of self-worth.They're not threats but clear
guidelines for what you'll protect.Healthy boundaries start with honoring your
limits-defining what's sustainable so your resources aren't exhausted.38
Finally,stop the habit of pleasing people.People-pleasing does indeed please
others.However,over time this habit over a long period of time can be harmful to
your sense of self-worth.39 Start valuing courage in yourself and others,
and try to take small steps of courage in your relationships.
40
Speaking them-to yourself or others-is how you carve your
place in the world.They shape your journey,guiding you toward a life of substance.
Standing up for yourself isn't selfish;it's the act of tending to the very worth that lets
you show up fully-for others and yourself.
A.Then how can you raise self-worth?
B.Your desires deserve attention,energy,and respect.
C.Healthy boundaries will lead to broader social networks.
D.To break it,start leaning toward courage and inner strength.
E.To grow it,protect your time,energy,and emotional reserves.
F.State them clearly,and others will understand how to respect you.
G.Yet,dismissing your own needs weakens self-worth and invites disregard.

sensitive.He demands 46 from himself at all times.But when he fails to

harsh personal judgments,over analyzing your short-comings and reflecting on your

Sensitive strivers like Bob often use it as a kind of 52

force them to perform better.But research shows that self criticism is a poor strategy
when it's used 53.It'll 54 affect you,for example,you'll
have less motivation,worse self-control,and greater procrastination.In fact,
self-criticism shifts the brain into a state of inhibition ()which prevents you
from taking action to reach your goals.
As a sensitive striver,your desire to be the best is your wealth.As long as you
succeed in

benefit from both your sensitivity and your ambition.
