Before he died in 1827, he began a new symphony, but never finished it. He only left behind some notes about the piece and a few “sketches” — short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. The team decided to use artificial intelligence (AI人工智能) to help finish the symphony. To train an AI, they turned every piece of Beethoven’s music to a form the computer could understand. By doing this, the AI could look for patterns (模式) in the way Beethoven wrote. They also studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches to work out where in the symphony he planned to use each little bit of music. In an early test, the team took a few minutes of music created by the AI seed on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians and reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI. Finally, the AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits to a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony — not simply a melody (乐曲), but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra (管弦乐队). On the night of October 9th, 2021, the piece was performed for the first time ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany. So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And though Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might be written, if he’d had the chance. 1. What was the team’s goal? 2. What did the team do to train an AI? 3. What was the result of the team’s early test? 4. How long did it take the team to complete the 10th Symphony? 5. What do you think of the team’s work? Why do you think so? B、阅读配对 配对阅读左栏是五个人希望了解的人物的信息，右栏是对七位名人的介绍，请为左栏的每个人选择一个最符合他们要求的介绍，并将其字母编号写在答题卡相应的位置上。其中两项是多余的。 1 Next term Jim will go to America to study.

A soon-to-be-started website might help. Some scientists set up a web-based Encyclopaedia of Life (EOL). It wants to name every species on Earth and be a good guide for people. To get the encyclopaedia started, the scientists will use information in the scientific databases（数据库）. And finally, non-scientists with specialized（专业的）knowledge will come to help in the site. Bird-watchers, for example, will be able to input what birds they see and where they live. To make sure the encyclopaedia is right, scientists will check much of the information added to it. As the EOL develops, you might find it is useful for schools. The site will make some special pages for kids who are studying ecosystems（生态系统）in their neighborhoods. And the EOL is also helpful for you to choose whatever information you like. It takes years for scientists to collect all the data they need to analyze species now. The scientists of the Encyclopaedia of Life hope the EOL will speed up that process. 1. What does the web-based EOL aim to do? A. To save all the plants. B. To work out the number of birds. C. To find out what covers the Earth. D. To name all the living things on Earth. 2. What is one of the characteristics（特点）of the EOL? A. It is set up by school students. B. It has been open to the public. C. It is about different types of grass and birds. D. It produces different kinds of information about species. 3. What does the underlined part “that process” refer to? A. Collecting data. B. Studying ecosystems. C. Creating a new way. D. Describing and analyzing species. 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. There are 1.8 million living species on earth. B. There are no non-scientists helping in the site. C. EOL is not useful for you to choose information. D. As the EOL develops, students might find it’s useful for them. D、阅读还原 A dictionary is very useful for the people who are learning English.

Da Vinci was extremely intelligent, and he was unusually talented in many different fields. He was a true genius, and his paintings and inventions changed the way we think about art and science. Leonardo da Vinci was born in the countryside in Italy. From an early age, he showed great intelligence and artistic talent. As he grew older, he learnt to do many different things. His paintings are very famous, and one, the Mona Lisa, is perhaps the most famous painting in the world. He also had many inventions. For example, his notebooks include some interesting drawings of flying machines and other vehicles. Dinosaurs Dinosaurs are a type of prehistoric animal. They are related to crocodiles , snakes and lizards. They are also the ancestors of today's birds. Dinosaurs first appeared around 245 million years ago. The word “dinosaur” comes from two Greek words, and it means “terrible lizard”. Dinosaurs lived on land and walked on either two or four legs. Many dinosaurs ate plants, but some ate meat. Dinosaurs came in different sizes. Some were as small as chickens, and others were as big as ten elephants. Dinosaurs ruled the Earth for more than 180 million years. About 66 million years ago, dinosaurs suddenly died out. Scientists are not completely sure why.

He looked around and imagined 1 into space, maybe even to Mars. The year was 1899. As a child, Goddard loved reading. Because he was a sick child, he didn’t 2 from high school. He often visited the library to borrow books 3 physical sciences. In his free time, he built rockets and took them to 4 field, but they didn’t fly. In 1920, Goddard wrote an article about rocket travel. When the New York Times saw his article, a reporter wrote that Goddard had 5 knowledge about science than a high school student. In 1926, Goddard built a ten-foot rocket, put 6 into an open car, and drove to a field on his aunt’s nearby farm. He lit the fuse, and the rocket 7 into the sky. It traveled at 8 per hour to an altitude of 41 feet, 9 , it fell into the field. The flight lasted 2.5 seconds, 10 made the U.S. government not show much interest in Goddard’s 11 . Over the years, his rockets 12 grow to 18 feet and fly up to 9,000 feet. No one made fun of him 13 he was successful. In fact, he became known as the father of modern rocketry. Goddard didn’t live 14 space flight. He died in1945, but his work wasn’t ended. 15 scientists continued to build bigger and better rockets. In 1969, the American rocket ApolloⅡ took the first men to the moon. At that time, the New York Times wrote about its 1920 article “The Times regrets the error. ” 1.

Before he died in 1827, he began a new symphony, but never finished it. He only left behind some notes about the piece and a few “sketches” — short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. The team decided to use artificial intelligence (AI人工智能) to help finish the symphony. To train an AI, they turned every piece of Beethoven’s music to a form the computer could understand. By doing this, the AI could look for patterns (模式) in the way Beethoven wrote. They also studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches to work out where in the symphony he planned to use each little bit of music. In an early test, the team took a few minutes of music created by the AI seed on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians and reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI. Finally, the AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits to a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony — not simply a melody (乐曲), but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra (管弦乐队). On the night of October 9th, 2021, the piece was performed for the first time ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany. So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And though Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might be written, if he’d had the chance. 1. What was the team’s goal? 2. What did the team do to train an AI? 3. What was the result of the team’s early test? 4. How long did it take the team to complete the 10th Symphony? 5. What do you think of the team’s work? Why do you think so? 【答案】1. To complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. 2. They turned every piece of Beethoven’s music into a form the computer could understand. 3. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI. 4. Over two years. 5. It’s amazing. Because in the early test no one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI. 【分析】文章主要讲一个团队通过人工智能完成了贝多芬未能写完的第十交响曲。贝多芬并没有写完，但团队确信，如果他有机会的话，这首曲子和他的作品非常相似。 1. 根据“Their goal was to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday.”可知这个团队的目标是完成贝多芬的第十交响曲。故填To complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. 2. 根据“To train an AI, they turned every piece of Beethoven’s music to a form the computer could understand.”可知为了训练一个人工智能，他们把贝多芬的每一段音乐都转换成电脑可以理解的形式。故填They turned every piece of Beethoven’s music into a form the computer could understand. 3. 根据“No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI.”可知早期测试的结果是没有人知道哪些部分是贝多芬写的，哪些部分是人工智能编的。故填No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI. 4. 根据“It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony — not simply a melody, but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra.”可知这个团队花费两年多时间完成了第十交响曲。故填Over two years. 5. 主观发挥题。答案不唯一，合理即可。故填It’s amazing. Because in the early test no one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts were made up by the AI.

With so many plants, animals, and other living things on the planet, it can be difficult to find out what kind of grass is growing by the roadside or what kind of birds just flew by. A soon-to-be-started website might help. Some scientists set up a web-based Encyclopaedia of Life (EOL). It wants to name every species on Earth and be a good guide for people. To get the encyclopaedia started, the scientists will use information in the scientific databases（数据库）. And finally, non-scientists with specialized（专业的）knowledge will come to help in the site. Bird-watchers, for example, will be able to input what birds they see and where they live. To make sure the encyclopaedia is right, scientists will check much of the information added to it. As the EOL develops, you might find it is useful for schools. The site will make some special pages for kids who are studying ecosystems（生态系统）in their neighborhoods. And the EOL is also helpful for you to choose whatever information you like. It takes years for scientists to collect all the data they need to analyze species now. The scientists of the Encyclopaedia of Life hope the EOL will speed up that process. 1. What does the web-based EOL aim to do? A. To save all the plants. B. To work out the number of birds. C. To find out what covers the Earth. D. To name all the living things on Earth. 2. What is one of the characteristics（特点）of the EOL? A. It is set up by school students. B. It has been open to the public. C. It is about different types of grass and birds. D. It produces different kinds of information about species. 3. What does the underlined part “that process” refer to? A. Collecting data. B. Studying ecosystems. C. Creating a new way. D. Describing and analyzing species. 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. There are 1.8 million living species on earth. B. There are no non-scientists helping in the site. C. EOL is not useful for you to choose information. D. As the EOL develops, students might find it’s useful for them. 【答案】1. D 2. D 3. A 4. D 【解析】本文讲了一些科学家建立了基于网络的生命百科全书，详细地介绍了它的目的和一些信息。 1. 细节理解题。根据“It wants to name every species on Earth and be a good guide for people.”可知EOL的目的是为地球上所有的生物命名。故选D。 2. 推理判断题。根据“So far, scientists have named about 1.8 million living species, but that is just a small number of what probably lives on Earth. With so many plants, animals, and other living things on the planet, it can be difficult to find out what kind of grass is growing by the roadside or what kind of birds just flew by.”可知地球上有如此多的植物、动物和其他生物，很难知道路边长着什么样的草，或者刚刚飞过的是什么样的鸟，EOL可能会有所帮助，由此推出EOL提供了不同种类的物种信息。故选D。 3. 词义猜测题。根据“It takes years for scientists to collect all the data they need to analyze species now. The scientists of the Encyclopaedia of Life hope that EOL will speed up that process.”可知现在，科学家需要数年时间来收集分析物种所需的所有数据。生命百科全书的科学家们希望EOL能加快收集数据这一进程。可推出that process指代“收集数据”。故选A。 4. 细节理解题。根据“As the EOL develops, you might find it is useful for schools.”可知随着EOL的发展，学生可能会发现它对他们很有用，D项正确。故选D。 D、阅读还原 A dictionary is very useful for the people who are learning English.
