Tech AI chatbots have already become ____45____ in people’s lives, but how many people really know how they work? Some of the most surprising information about AI chatbots can help us understand how they work. Here are two key things you should know:

If asked: “How to cheat others?" in the pre-training phase, an AI might give you detailed steps. While as cheating others are not ____47____, human trainers can help guide AI to proper responses. After that, an AI chatbot might answer something like: “I’m sorry, but I can’t ____48____ that information.

Heavy raindrops started falling as Alex looked up, feeling disappointed. Of all days, it had to rain on the day of his basketball trial (选拔赛) for the national team. Holding his sports bag tightly, he ran toward the bus stop. His umbrella hardly kept him dry, and the bus was nowhere in sight.
Alex’s family was going through a hard time. His father, the only one working, had been sick for months and could not work. Alex wanted to change that. If he got into the national team, he could earn money and live his dream of being a professional player.
When Alex finally got off the bus, he still had to walk to the basketball court. As he rushed through the busy street, he saw an old woman at the edge of the road, looking confused. Cars beeped (鸣笛) as they passed her. Even though he was in a hurry, he stepped forward.
“I can’t find the bus stop,” she said nervously.
“Don’t worry. I’ll help you,” Alex replied. He led her across the road and waited with her until her bus arrived.
Alex turned back to continue his trip. Just then, a car drove past a puddle (水坑) and threw a lot of dirty water onto his shoes. He felt upset, but he had no time to waste. He ran towards the basketball court.
Fifteen minutes late, Alex finally arrived. The other players were already on the court, wearing clean sports clothes. Alex, with his wet socks and messy clothes, felt out of place. But he wasn’t going to give up. He explained his delay to the officials, apologizing. To his surprise, they gave him a chance.
Alex gave his best in the trials, showing great teamwork and skill. Later that day, his phone rang — it was the basketball team. He had made it. His hard work had finally paid off.
52. Alex was disappointed with the weather, wasn’t he?
___________________________________
53. What happened to Alex’s father?
___________________________________
54. Why did Alex want to join the national team?
___________________________________
55. How did Alex’s clothes get dirty?
___________________________________
56. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase in Paragraph 7?
___________________________________
57. What kind of person do you think Alex is? Use two different qualities to describe Alex and explain your reasons with examples from the text.

【答案】
Dear schoolmates,
I’m writing to call on everyone to value water. Water is the source of life. It is important for us to protect water. However, water is becoming less now.
To protect water, we can do many things. First, remember to turn off the tap after using it. Second, we can reuse water, such as watering plants with washing water. Also, never pollute rivers.
Let’s take action now! Small actions make a big difference.
Yours,
Li Hua
