Buried in ash after Vesuvius'eruption,hundreds of scrolls (have kept their
secrets hidden for centuries.But archaeologists have now been able to reveal some of
the ancient text with the help of artificial intelligence.
Discovered in the ruins of a villa,the Herculaneum scrolls are a collection of
around1,000 scrolls,along with other relics.In earlier times,many people tried to
unlock the secrets of scrolls but in vain,mainly because most of them were fragile
碎的)and would shatter into pieces if unrolled.
Until now,the only way to read what's inside the scrolls is to put together the
thousands of pieces,which may take 500 years to reveal their content.Fortunately,a
team led by professor Seales had already pioneered a way to "virtually unwrap"an
ancient scroll using X-ray tomography(断层成像技术).But that was not enough to
read the barely visible ink on the ancient documents.The chemistry of the ink from
the ancient world is different than the chemistry from medieval times.It's largely
invisible to the naked eye even when caught by the X-ray.
In 2019,they did come up with a solution based on artificial intelligence to"see"
6
the ink,but it needed much data.So they launched the Vesuvius Challenge to
accelerate the work and released software and thousands of 3D X-ray images of
pieces and two rolled-up scrolls,in the hope that global research groups would take
up the challenge.
In the end,a team of three students shared the grand prize.They could read 2,000
letters from the scroll after training machine-learning algorithms on the scans.After
creating a 3D scan of the text using a CT scan,the scroll was then separated into
segments.A machine learning model-an application of AI-then detected the inked
regions,allowing them to decipher the text.
Mastro,a professor at Naples'University,called the technique "revolutionary."
"We worked literally day and night to study them,but I am more excited that using
this method we can reveal what has been hidden in the scrolls for almost 2,000 years,"
said Mastro.
28.What issue was solved with X-ray tomography?
A.The fragile nature of the scrolls.
B.Putting together divided pieces.
C.Showing the scrolls without opening it.
D.The difficulty in understanding ancient languages.
29.How did AI function in processing the scrolls?
A.By unwrapping the scrolls.
B.By analyzing the chemistry.
C.By separating them with relics.
D.By detecting the barely visible ink.
30.What does the underlined word"decipher"mean in paragraph 5?
A.Adapt.B.Summarize.C.Arrange.
D.Interpret.
31.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Scrolls promote technological revolution.
B.AI advanced the way to read ancient scrolls.
C.New technology discovered relics in Vesuvius.
D.Hidden secrets are recorded by archaeologists.
D
It's one of the most common questions adults ask children:what do you want to
be when you grow up?Although childhood is supposed to be fun,kids also discuss
important topics regarding their futures.Now,a new study finds that children who set
big goals regarding their future status and education often set themselves up for
success as they age.
The findings,published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,are
the first to reveal a connection between life goal development and future success in
school or the workplace.Rodica Damian,an associate professor of psychology at the
University of Houston,and other researchers discovered that as children grow up,
their goals naturally begin to change.However,as some childhood goals fall away,
other goals related to a family stay strong.These include being close to relatives,
building more friendships or finding a romantic partner,and even becoming more
involved in the community or helping others.
During the study,researchers compared how their goals evolved as children
moved from adolescence to adulthood and how a person's goals impacted their
success in school and as an employee later on.Overall,a child's goals focusing on
their education and future status were the most consistent predictors of income in
adulthood.Simply,when a child dreams big about doing well in school or achieving
great success as an adult,these goals accurately paint a picture of how successful
these children will be.So,the message is simple:dream big and dream of success,
kids!Those goals can drive you to success when you grow up!
"Our work proves a strong connection between a child's life goals,educational
achievement,and future occupational outcomes.This information is valuable for
parents and educators who can use it to encourage children to set ambitious goals.
Additionally,it helps develop strategies to support individuals in achieving their goals
and reaching their full potential,"Damian concludes.
32.What does the study mainly focus on?
A.Why children change their dreams over time.
B.Whether childhood goals relate to future success.
C.How childhood education determines future career.
D.What impact early experiences have on characters.
6
33.Which of the following goals remains strong as children grow up?
A.Connecting with others.
B.Achieving academic success.
C.Hunting for a high-salary job.
D.Improving personal social
status.
34.What message does the author convey in paragraph 3?
A.Future careers is determined by Childhood achievements
B.Childhood ambition is potentially connected with success.
C.Setting small goals is more beneficial than dreaming big.
D.Adjusting goals can create new opportunities for success.
35.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To summarize learning strategies.B.To offer suggestions for future studies.
C.To stress the significance of the study.D.To point out the limitations of the study.

It is rightly said "Time and Tide wait for none".But a number of people today
have difficulty successfully managing time.36 Now let's take a look at a
list of 4 skills you should master about time management.
Set priorities.
Write out all the tasks you need to get through for the day and then prioritize
(优先考虑)them in accordance with their level of significance..37
Meanwhile,it also assists to guarantee that the most important things are done on
time.
38
Certain activities,though seemingly harmless,significantly affect productivity.
Instagram and Facebook,for instance,could easily consume hours that are better
spent on studying or rest.To combat this,using time management tools that track how
much time you spend online highlights areas for improvement.
Do less.
This is a trick from Leo Babauta,who started the blog Zen Habits.In his opinion,
0
doing less doesn't mean "less is more".It means "less is better".39 This is
achieved by slowing down and concentrating only on those things.Once you do,
make every action count.As a result,you'll be creating more value instead of just
fodder.
Relax at Appropriate Intervals.
Control your performance over time by taking more pauses.According to
Nathaniel Kleitman a sleep scientist,"our brains naturally desire rest after every 90
minutes of hard activity."Your mind will let you understand that you require a break
when you start to feel sleepy,restless,hungry or lose concentration regardless of
whether or not you have such a timer set.40
Embrace these strategies,adapt them to your specific needs,and reclaim control
over your time management.Your future self will thank you for it!
A.Stay creative.
B.Eliminate(消除)Time-wasters.
C.Be aware of what needs to be done.
D.You can not apply that to time management
E.It may improve the chances of achieving objectives.
F.You realize it's time to step back when you start feeling like this.
G.This in turn,leads to a decline in production as well as a rise in their anxiety levels.

Surprise(times two)!
My friend Ollie has lived with his grandmother,Abuela,since he was a baby.
Abuela is the kindest,smartest,funniest person imaginable!On the morning of
Mother's Day,I invited them to my house for a party.
"I love any kind of party if there's a cake!"Ollie said.
"Of course."I chuckled,"I made a card for my mom,but I still want to find some
present to go with it".Ollie also wanted to buy roses for Abuela,but everything is so
expensive at the flower store that he can barely afford a leaf!
Just then,our neighbor,Mrs.Nishikawa who was watering her garden,waved
and called,"Good morning,kiddos!"Ollie waved back."Good morning.Mrs.
Nishikawa!Your garden is always so pretty."
"Oy!It's a mess."She groaned."My back has been acting up,and I haven't
weeded for days."Ollie and I were eager to offer help.Half an hour later,both of us
had a big pile of weeds.Mrs.Nishikawa smiled and said we could choose whatever
flowers we liked for Mother's day bouquets ()
We clipped,arranged,and wrapped everything in big sheets of sparkly paper and
string.Ollie and I both said that these look just as good as the ones at the store and
even better.
13
As we headed back with flowers in arms,we came up with a plan.Nobody would
think to look in my bedroom closet,a perfect place to hide these,except my two cats.
It was a good idea that at the exact right time,we would shout "Surprise!"and amaze
everybody.But you know perfect plans don't always work out perfectly.
Everybody elegantly sipped tea and not-so-elegantly gobbled cake.Then we took
turns saying things we loved and appreciated about Abuela and my mom.Right when
they were chatting,Ollie and I snuck off to get our surprise.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
"NO!"I yelled as soon as our cats dashed out of the bedroom.
"How can you get so beautiful flowers?"Abuela and my mom asked.
