A.a measurement of counting the information B.a word of“ciyuan'” C.a unit of OpenAI D.a task of people 52.How does the writer explain the word"token"?. A.By giving a fact. B.By comparing it with similar words. C.By telling a story. D.By having a discussion. 53.What can we infer from the passage?

D.Middle school students can't leam about tokens. 54.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A.①② ③④ B. ① ① ① 3 ③④ ②③④⑤ ②③ ⑤ C Nature is full of amazing wonders,and these wonders have shaped the history of human beings. Thousands of years ago,the earliest human civilizations grew up near great natural rivers. The first one is Mesopotamian Civilization.It was born between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in West Asia.The two rivers brought plenty of water and rich soil,which helped people grow food easily.People here built the first cities and created one of the earliest writings-cuneiform.Its most brilliant culture lies in its legal(法律的)achievements,.with the Code of Hammurabi(汉谟拉比法典)being one of the oldest and most complete written laws in human history. 5 Next is Ancient Egyptian Civilization.It developed along the Nile River.Every year,it flooded() and left rich earth on the land,making the soil perfect for farming.Because of it,they created the solar calendar,which correctly matched with the Nile's flooding cycles and guided their farming and daily life activities.Moreover the Egyptians built great pyramids,a man-made wonder,thanks to the rich nature the Nile gave them. Ancient Indian Civilization rose on the Indus River.The river provided clean water and good farmland. People built planned cities with smart systems,showing their deep understanding of living with nature.Its city planning was unparalleled.For example a city named Harappa had streets like today and advanced underwater systems.Isn't that amazing?And one of the greatest achievement made by ancient Indian is to create numbers which now we call Arabic()numbers.They were first to create zero,which greatly improved mathematics around the world. Chinese Civilization started along the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.They fed the land and helped ancient Chinese develop farming,create writing,and build colorful culture.The most shining part of its culture is its unique written language,from oracle bone inscriptions()to classical Chinese characters, which has kept thousands of years of history and thoughts and connected different generations of Chinese people.And as we all know,the four great inventions--Papermaking,Printing,Compass and Gunpowder have greatly influenced the whole world. The last one is Ancient Greek Civilization.Unlike the others,it grew on small islands and coastal areas. The natural environment made the Greeks good at sailing and trading.They learned from other civilizations and created their own great culture.Great thinkers like Socrates and Plato laid the groundwork for Western philosophy(),while its literary and artistic achievements,including poems like the Iliad,have set a timeless standard for beauty and creativity. All these five civilizations began because of the wonders of nature.Rivers,rich soil and good geography gave humans the chance to live,develop and make history.Nature is not only beautiful but also the mother of human civilization.We should respect and protect every natural wonder around us. 55.What can we know about the five ancient civilizations? A.Both Mesopotamian Civilization and Chinese Civilization were born along two rivers. B.The pyramids located in Egypt are natural wonders. C.Socrates and Plato set up standards for literature and art of the whole world. D.All the ancient civilizations can develop only because of rivers. 56.What does the underlined word"unparalleled mean in Para.4? A.Excellent B.Unknown C.Easy to copy D.Special 57.Which of the following is true according to this passage? A.Ancient Greek Civilization developed near large rivers like the other four. B.The numbers we still use today were created by Arabs. C.Yellow River and Yangtze River are the birthplace of Chinese Civilization. D.Egyptians created solar calender because it could match with the Nile's flooding cycles. 58.What's the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To tell us how to protect natural wonders around the world. B.To introduce the lifestyles of people in ancient civilizations. C.To show how natural wonders helped develop the civilizations. D.To compare the different cultures of the five ancient civilizations. 6 D Along the River During the Oingming Festival also known by its Chinese name as the Qingming Shanghe Tu,is a painting by the Song Dynasty artist Zhang Zeduan.The painting seems alive and full of enery,just like you can see the people walking by and hear what they are talking about And you can have a happy feeling.It is regarded as a national treasure.

First school life can be busy with homework and exams. Hobbies like reading, playing sports or drawing help us reduce stress. They take our minds of study pressure, making us feel calm and ready for the next day. Second, hobbies fill out days with joy. When you finish ice painting, play a song well, or make guitar, or win a small basketball game with friends, you feel proud and happy. This means hobbies can bring us happiness and a sense of achievement. Third, learning a new hobby isn't always easy. For example, if you want to learn to dance, you might make many mistakes, but if you keep practicing, you'll get Better. This teaches us to keep trying and never give up when facing difficulties.
