C Today,we find ourselves in a digital()world of werds,with much of our reading and writing taking place on a screen.And the more we rely on technology,the less we use traditional writing equipment. Sometimes,when we pick up a pen,we perhaps pause,trying to rernember how to write a word.Then,it niight strike us just how much we value the charm of handwriting.China has a rich history of handwriting art, especially Chinese calligraphy. The Four Treasures of the Study For many Chinese,it won't come as a surprise to learn that these four writing devices,the brush,xuan paper,ink stick and ink stone,are included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage items( 物质文化遗产)of China Brushes are traditionally made from animal hair,The tips of the writing brush is of great importance,as soft or stiff bristles produce a variety of effects.With a history of over one thousand years,xuan paper plays a key role in Chinese calligraphy and painting.To use the ink,the stick is rubbed with water on an ink stone. This traditional method of producing liquid ink gives the calligrapher more control over the thickness of the ink and its texture. Timeline of Calligraphy Masterpieces The earliest known examples are called jiagiwen that date back to the Shang Dynast(1600-1046 BCE). These picture-like characters()gradually evovled,and during the Qin Dynasty (221-207 BCE),a more standardised calligraphy,xiaozhuan began to emerge.During the Han Dynasty (202 BCE-220 CE),lishu began to be widely used.This started a new age and led to more fluent and supple scripts,such as kaishu, caoshu and xingshu. There is an old saying that learning kaishu is like a baby learnine to stand with xingshu likened to walking,and caoshu to running.This means that one should first master the basic before progressing to the next level.Or like the English saying,"Learn to walk before you run." One of the Greatest Masters of Chinese Calligraphy Stories about the masters of calligraphy have been passed down from generation to generation.Known as the "Sage of Calligraphy",Wang Xizhi (303-361 CE)could be said to best represent the heart and sout of Chinese calligraphy. Wang Xizhi lived during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420 CE)and started calligraphy at an early age.It is said that he practised calligraphy so much that the water in the pond near his houge turned black with him washing his-brushes in it day after day. 58.How does the writer lead to the topic of handwriting's charm in the first paragraph? A By comparing different writing tools B.By giving an example. B.By telling a story D.By listing scientific data S9.Which word has the closest meaning to "rely on"? A.depend on B.give in C.look down on D.fail in 60.Which of the following words can best describe Wang Xizhi according to the passage? D Mysterious A.Romantic. B.Magical. C.Patient. 61.What can we infer from the passage? A.Calligraphy beginners should learn xingshu first. B.People who cannot write correctly are becoming stupid C.Chinese characters have existed for more than 3.000 years. D.Nowadays the Four Treasures of the Study are of little value D iHave you ever felt lost in the ocean of online information?With billions of webpages creafed every day,finding right answers can be like searching for a knife in a sea.This is where DeepSeek,an AI-powered search app,steps in as your digital compass. 2DeepSeek developed by a Chinese tech company in 2022,uses advanced deep learning algorithms( )as its core technology.Unlike traditionai search tools that based on keywords,it understands users'words. For example,if you ask."How do plants live at night?"it explains photosynthesis (in simple words rather than just listing biology websites. 3 Another core technology is based on neurai networks(神经网络)，which study patterns from more than 10 billion points,such as text,images,and videos. AFoi example,when a user searches for "the new progress cf Al in medicine",it can immediately provide newly published research results and expert comments,instead of on!y show/ing information from a few days ago. 4One outstanding feature of DeepSeek is its language ability.DeepSeek supports more than 50 languages and can even translate ancient texts.In 2024,it helped archaeologists work out a 1.000-year-old mystery by comparing it with worldwide historical information that DeepSeek stores,building bridges between past and present. (Also DeepSeek helps students leam better.Users say it makes finding information 30%fasier.Its "Knowledge Map"shows connections between topics with pictures.For example,looking up "water cycle",it connects to“clouds,”“oceans,,”and“plants''with simple pictures.Think of it like a weather map showing how rain travels！ 6Looking ahead,DeepSeek's team aims to combine virtual reality (VR).Imagine exploring the Great Wall through 3D while the AI explains its significance.Such development could rebuild how we interact with information. DAs technology develops,DeepSeek continues to change.Its journey shows humanity's endless thirsty for knowledge-not just to find answers,but to ask better questions.Perhaps the next breakthrough lies just ahead. 62.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 1? .A.To criticize all the traditional search engines. B.To introduce the problem and show DeepSeek. C.To explain how algorithms work in detail. D.To compare different kinds of AI technologies. 63.Which sentence may be the best to fill in" ▲”in Paragraph③？ A.This technology makes traditional keyword search tools more popular B.This ability makes it offer the latest and timely information to users C.It can also help archaeologists solve ancient text translation problems D.It mainly focuses on collecting and storing old text and image materials 64.Which of the following shows the structure of this passage? 6 0 ②⊙ ®0 (2) (3 2 (3 ④ XepScck DeepScek C (DeepSeck D (DeepSeek B ④⑤ 0⑤ 4 ⑤⑥ L⑥⑦ -0 ⑤⑥⑦ ① 65.What's the best title of this passage?
