Most 5-year-olds are just learning their ABCs but one little girl from the UK has actually written a book that was published in January 2022. Bella-Jay Dark from Weymouth, is the world’s youngest female to be published and was awarded the title by Guinness World Records (吉尼斯世界纪录). Her book, The Lost Cat tells the story of Snowy, a cat who got lost after going outside alone at night. She hopes the book will teach children not to go outside at night alone.

While many adult writers find inspiration for their books from life experiences,

Bella’s creative vision actually came from one of her drawings. “It started off as a picture. My daddy said I could make a book and a story came from the picture,” Bella said.

Her mom, Chelsie Syme, was surprised that the book turned out as well as it did. “I am just really proud of her; I did not think it was going to go this far so I’m just proud and want to see her get the acknowledgement she deserves.”

But how do you get a child’s homemade book published? According to Syme, they took Bella’s book to a book fair and found a publisher willing to take a chance on it. Syme helped Bella with proofing copies (校对本) and making necessary changes. To earn the Guinness World Record title of The World’s Youngest Published Author, female, the book has to be published by a commercial publishing house and have at least 1000 copies printed and sold. Bella’s book met the criteria, so she was awarded the title.

Besides being an accomplished author, Bella is just a regular kid who enjoys reading, swimming, and playing on her tablet. In her free time, she is currently working on a sequel (续篇) to Snowy’s story. Who knows what pearls of wisdom will come next? 24.Who is Snowy? A.A lost child.

B.Bella’s pet.

C.A talented female writer. D.A cat in Bella’s work. 25.What is the inspiration of Bella’s book?

A.Bella’s life experiences. B.Bella’s interest in animals. C.A picture Bella drew herself. D.A storybook bought by her father. 26.What does the underlined word “criteria” probably mean in paragraph 4? A.Records.

B.Standards.

C.Guesses.

D.Difficulties.

27.What can we infer about Bella? A.Her father is a painter. B.Her mother is strict with her.

C.She wants to help children with her book. D.She pays much attention to protecting animals.

C

What do the following animals have in common? Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.

They are all endangered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly, humans are behind every one of them!

For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!

Year 1505 was a dreadful turning point in the natural history of the island of Mauritius — European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds. About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruit fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble — men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.

Humans and animals have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to build beautiful houses. We build reservoirs to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.

More than once we have seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳的排放) and other gases have raised the earth's temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and long

lasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring. 28.Which of the following are NOT endangered animals? A.Pandas.

B.Rhinoceros.

C.Pink pigeons.

D.Dodo birds.

29.What does the underlined word “dreadful” (in Paragraph 4) mean?

A.Surprising. B.Exciting. C.Awful. D.Quick. 30.Paragraph 5 mainly talks about _______.

A.how excessive hunting led to endangerment of animals B.when foreign species entered the island of Mauritius C.the human activities caused the loss of habitats of animals D.pollution played a main role in the worsening of the environment 31.What is the best title for the passage? A.What makes the animals in danger B.How to save the endangered animals C.Pollution and animals

D.Don't hunt for animals

The recent launch of ChatGPT, a chatbot created by Open AI for public use, has underlined the growing reach of digital technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) in working life. Like most technological revolutions that affect the workplace, chatbots can potentially create winners and losers and will affect both blue-collar and white-collar workers.

ChatGPT is a natural language processing (NLP) tool that allows users to interact with the GPT-3 model using natural language. The model is trained on a great amount of data, which allows it to generate human-like responses to a wide variety of inputs.

This type of AI can greatly benefit the productivity of skilled workers. Chatbots offer the possibility to automate (使自动化) boring and time-consuming tasks, such as writing standardized reports, meeting minutes and emails. Workers could therefore be freed to focus on more important and creative tasks. A chatbot virtual personal assistant could guide skilled workers through different projects or production processes. It can also generate original content and ideas, and potentially help to research and develop new products and services.

But tools such as ChatGPT presents a real risk of skilled and semi-skilled workers losing their jobs. For example, chatbots can be developed to train employees in an organization, resulting in the unemployment of human trainers.

Previous waves of technological change have created both winners and losers. Workers who are quicker to adjust to technological change will win by increasingly taking on tasks complementary (互补的) to AI while giving up automated ones.

32.This passage centers around the effects of AI like ChatGPT on . A.life

B.entertainment

C.sports

D.work

33.Paragraph 2 mainly talks about . A.what ChatGPT is B.how ChatGPT is used C.why ChatGPT is created D.who created ChatGPT 34.In paragraph 3, how many benefits of Chatbots are mentioned? A.2.

B.3.

C.4.

D.5.

35.According to the text, faced with technological revolutions, workers had better .

A.continue ahead with their automated jobs and work harder B.do other things while keeping up with the automated ones

C.adapt to the change by doing other things to form a good combination with AI D.give up automated jobs and just learn as much AI knowledge as possible

第二节 读后续写(满分 25 分)

A school talent show would be held three weeks later. I told my best friend, Tina, the news. My older brother had been teaching me juggling(玩杂耍)

, and I knew he’d help me with my act for the show. Tina ran over to the noticeboard and read the poster.

But when Tina asked me what our act was going to be, I didn’t know how to speak up for myself. I held on to my books tightly. Tina laughed and pointed to the poster. It said acts can be individuals, partners, or small groups. My grip(紧握)on my books now became uncomfortable. I asked Tina if she wanted to do an act with me. She nodded. I hesitated for a second before continuing. “I’ve got an idea and …” Tina interrupted me immediately. “Yeah, me too; let’s talk about it over lunch.”

During math, I tried to think of how I would tell Tina that I wanted to do my own act. After all, we were best friends; we should be able to see eye to eye about this. The problem was Tina always took charge. I never spoke up, and then I ended up feeling angry. I desperately wanted to win, but it was more than that. I wanted to win on my own—with an act that was all mine.

At lunch, Tina started talking as soon as we sat down. She had it all planned out. She said we could sing along to a song and do a dance routine, and her mother could make us costumes. However, I got up the courage and told her about my juggling act. Tina said she didn’t think she could learn to juggle in three weeks and that she would probably drop the balls. She didn’t want to be embarrassed. I didn’t say anything, but after school, I ran around the track a couple of times just to let off steam. 注意:
