Pinocchio had a fever.The Fairy (took a glass of water with medicine and said gently to
Pinocchio,"Drink this,and you'll be up and well."Pinocchio looked at the glass worriedly and said,
T'd rather(宁愿)die than drink that aw ful medicine.”
At that moment,the door of the room opened and four rabbits as black as ink came in,carrying
a small black coffin(棺材)on their shoulders.
"We have come for you,"said the largest rabbit.
“Oh,Faiy,my Fairy,”Pinocchio cried out.“Give me that glass,.please,Idon't want to die.”
And holding it with hands,he swallowed (the medicine quickly.Then the rabbits left.
After that,the Fairy added,"Tell me how you were in the hands of the robber last time."
"I had five gold pieces for my father,but on the way,I met two robbers.They tied my neck with
a rope and hung me on a tree,"said Pinocchio."Where are the gold pieces now?"she asked.
"Ilost them,"answered Pinocchio.As he spoke,his nose became at least two inches longer.
“And where did you lose them?”
"In the wood nearby."At this second lie,his nose grew a few more inches.
"If you lost them in the nearby wood,"said the Fairy,"we'll look for them and find them."
"Ah,now I remember,"replied Pinocchio,I didn't lose the gold,but I swallowed them."
At this third lie,his nose became longer than ever.The Fairy sat looking at him and laughing
Why do you laugh?"Pinocchio asked her.
“I am laughing at your lies.”
"How do you know I am lying?"
"Lies,my boy,are known in a moment.There are two kinds of lies,lies with short legs and lies
with long noses.Yours,just now,happen to have long noses."
-Adapted from The Adventures of Pinocchio

DDo you know DNA?Every living thing has DNA,so scientists can
use it to identify (living things.They leave bits of DNA behind
wherever they go.DNA left behind like this is "environmental"DNA.
or eDNA.Scientists can use it to tell what kinds of animals are in a
5
certain place.
2Testing eDNA isn't a new idea.Most of the time,.But now,two teams of scientists
have found a new way of identifying animals in an area by testing eDNA in the air.
3Both teams chose to test in zoos because wild animals were not easy to find in the area.One team
collected samples (from different places at Denmark's Copenhagen Zoo,and the other team
did it at Hamerton Zoo Park in the UK.
④Interestingly,both teams used vacuums(真空吸尘器)and fans to get small bits of eDNA in the air.
After collecting samples,they went back to the lab and compared (their samples with
examples of DNA from different animals.Therefore,the scientists were able to identify many
different animals at the zoos.
5Both teams were able to track different animals,even endangered ones,without interfering with
them by using this new method.They were so excited about their new way that they put their results
of the test together and wrote a paper together in order to invite more scientists to join them.
6However,it's still unknown if this new way will work out fine or not in the wild world.If scientists
know where the wild animals live,they can do a better job of protecting them.
7So the next step is to find out how to take this new method into the wild world.
56.Which sentence can be put into▲?
A.scientists had no way to look for eDNA
B.scientists looked for eDNA in the water
C.scientists hardly believed eDNA was useful
D.scientists refused to study animal eDNA further
57.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?
A.The new way of testing air eDNA may help save more wild animals.
B.Both teams used vacuums and fans to collect small bits of eDNA in the air.
C.Vacuums are specially created for collecting animal eDNA.
D.People can collect eDNA only inside some big city zoos.
58.Where can we most probably read this passage?
A.In a travel guidebook.
B.In a daily food newspaper.
C.In a science magazine.
D.In a history textbook.

One day a young man Gary went to see a wise old man.He wanted to know why he wasn't able to
reach all of his goals in his life.
The old man was reading in a small house by the river.With a smile,he listened to Gary's story
and told him,First please help me boil(煮沸)akettle(壶)of water!'
Gary saw a big kettle next to a small stove ()but there was no wood in the house.So he went
out to get some.
He came back with some dry wood.First,he filled the kettle with water.Next,he put it on the
stove.After that,he put some wood in the stove.At last,he lit a match ()Then,Gary just waited
6
for the water to boil.But because the kettle was too large,when he used all the wood,the water did not
boil.So he ran out to get more.
When he got back,the water turned cold.He learned his lesson and this time he got more wood
before he started a fire.Finally,the water boiled very quickly.
"If there is not enough wood,how would you boil the water?"the wise man asked.
Gary thought for a minute but didn't know the answer.
"Well,then just get some water out of the kettle!"the old man said."At first,you set too many
goals,"said the old man."It's just like the large kettle full of water.You didn't have enough wood,so
you couldn't boil the water.If you want to make the water boil,you will have to boil less water."
60.Was there any wood in the house?
61.How many steps did Gary follow to boil the water after he came back with the wood?
62.What might be the reasons why the young man couldn't boil the water?
63.Do you agree with the wise man's words about goals in the last paragraph?Why or why not?

AI Short Dramas:Good or Bad?
Now AI short dramas are very popular.They are short,fast,and easy to watch.There are many
kinds,such as rebirth,revenge,and sweet love.Because of AI,they are very cheap.As a result,quite
a few people like to watch them every day.
AI short dramas have some good points.First,ordinary people can make content.To make a
traditional drama,you need actors,a place,and a big team,which costs a lot of money and time.But
with Al,you just write a story,and AI can make the pictures,voices,and video.Second,short free
time can be used to relax.You can watch an episode on the bus,in line,or at lunch.When you are
stressed,watching the main character win can help you forget your worries for a while.
But there are also bad sides.The biggest problem is that these dramas are designed to keep you
watching.Every episode ends with a hook,and after one episode,the next one plays automatically.
Before you know it,a lot of time is gone.If people watch too many,they may find it hard to focus on
long articles or slow-paced content.Also,some stories have bad values,so teenagers may confuse
these stories with real life.
So how should we treat AI short dramas?First,tell virtual from real.Don't use their logic in
real life.Second,set a time limit.Don't let them take up your work,study,or rest time.Third,
teenagers should watch less,and parents should use the teen mode and guide them.Fourth,
remember they are fast-made products,so don't put too much emotion into them.All of them are
useful suggestions.
Technology itself is not good or bad.AI short dramas can make our free time fun,but we should
still decide how much time we spend on them and on our real life.
AI short dramas are now very popular.They have good points:common people can 69.
in their spare time.But they also have bad sides.They are made to 70.
which wastes time and harms focus.Besides,some stories have bad values and may mislead
teenagers.So how should we treat them?71.
