That evening Holmes again wore different clothes, and a large, black hat. He
changed his face, his hair -- everything. He was a different man.
We walked together to Serpentine Avenue." You see, "said Holmes to me, "I
don't think she wants others to see the photo. But where is it？At her bank？No.
Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I'm sure it's in her house.
"But how will you know？"I asked. He said，"She'll show me. She'll have to."
Just then Irene's taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed
him. Other men were also pushing and shouting， and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but
Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene
hurried to her front door, but she looked back. "How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt？"she
called.
Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. Then Holmes
put up his hand，and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house
all began to shout "Fire!"very loudly.
The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.
"Well done, Watson，"he said."Have you got the photo？"I asked.
"I know where it is. She showed me，"he answered.
"But why did she show you？"
"It's easy，"he said，and laughed."You saw all those people in the street？I paid them to help us. It
wasn't a real fight and the blood wasn't real. When people shout "Fire!", a woman runs to the most

There are 8 billion humans on Earth.The sun is 150 million kilometers away. The universe （宇宙）
may have 200 billion trillion （万亿） stars ...
As scientists explore the world with more and more advanced（先进的） tools, the numbers used are
also becoming bigger. Recently, scientists added four new names for really big and really small
measurements（度量）：ronna（1027）, quetta ﹣（1030）, ronto（10 27） and quecto（10﹣30）.
Do you find these numbers too big to make sense（有意义）？Don't worry. Almost all human brains
have a problem dealing with big numbers." While living and evolving（进化）, our ancestors（祖先）had no
need to develop such a skill, " US mathematician Spencer Greenberg told the science website Gizmodo.
Early humans only needed to understand small quantitie（s 数量）, like the number of people in the clan（族
群）, or how many animals they had caught. "So it's not important to differentiate large from very large from
an evolutionary perspective（进化的角度）."
However, there are some methods that can help us better understand big numbers. One way is to
turn big numbers into something you are familiar with. For example, if imagining 400,000 people is too
hard, you can think that an average soccer stadium can hold around 40,000 people. Then 400,000 people
mean 10 soccer stadiums of people. Or if you have 1,000 yuan, then a millionaire (百万富翁) has 1,000
times more money than you.
Needless to say, there are limits to these methods. "This is why we often just 'do the math', " said
Greenberg. "We can work with large numbers in calculations and get useful answers. We just can't
necessarily understand the numbers throughout that process."
52. What might one quetta refer to？
A.One followed by 30 zeros.
B.A decimal point（小数点）followed by 26 zeros.
C.One followed by 27 zeros.
D.A decimal point（小数点）followed by 29 zeros.

53. According to Paragraph 3, we can learn that .
A.there were no large numbers in ancient times
B.ancient people didn't need to understand big numbers
C.human brains don't have a problem dealing with big numbers
D.big numbers appear throughout human evolution
54. According to the story, we can understand big numbers by
A.comparing the numbers to money
B.imagining how many people there are on Earth
C.thinking about how many soccer stadiums we have
D.turning them into something we are familiar with
55. What can we infer from the story？
A.Math is the best subject for us to understand the world.
B.People cannot understand numbers by doing calculations.
C.Extremely large numbers cannot be calculated.
D.Calculations help us deal with large numbers.

Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later
you'll get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.
This robot writer is real. It's called ChatGPT. From writing Shakespeare - style poetry to making music,
ChatGPT has amazed the world since its launch out in late 2022 by the US company OpenAI. OpenAI
developed it to generate（生成）human - like texts. It can translate languages, talk with people and write
songs, poems and even jokes. It's one of the most powerful AI of its kind, with the complete writing
abilities of a real person!
People around the world have tried ChatGPT and posted their results on social media. Some used it to
write history reports，some asked it to take notes of presentations，and some even generated advice on how
to communicate with people at a party, reported The Atlantic.
The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated（复杂的）matters. We may
spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution（进化论）. But
ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark,
harmful questions, such as how to make weapons（武器）, it will not give you an answer.
ChatGPT comes along at a time when AI is becoming increasingly able to do creative tasks. There is
no doubt that ChatGPT is a powerful tool. However, some schools in the US, Australia and France have
banned（禁止）the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students
and teachers from using ChatGPT on the local networks and computers，CNN reported. The move comes
out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that
ChatGPT could be used to spread improper information.
"It does not build critical-thinking（批判性思维）and problem-solving skills，"said Jenna Lyle，the
deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education." The materials they create are
difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the issue of copyright（版
权）. Since the system is largely trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet's
biases（偏见）and stereotypes（刻板印象）about certain groups. These are all the things that depend on

humans to solve."
56. The cat story was written to .
A.show what creative work ChatGPT can do
B.introduce a cat that wants to go to space
C.introduce a series of bedtime books
D.show how robots create scientific research
57. What do we know about ChatGPT？
A.It is still under development.
B.It is the most powerful kind of AI.
C.It can write almost anything humans can write.
D.People cannot tell the difference between ChatGPT and humans.
58. Paragraph 3 is mainly about .
A.the disadvantages of ChatGPT
B.how ChatGPT is developed
C.what people think about ChatGPT
D.how ChatGPT has helped people so far
pared with human writing，ChatGPT is .
A.faster B.safer C.more interesting D.more difficult
60. What's the main idea of the last paragraph？
A.How people feel about writing in the future.
B.What problems AI writing can cause.
C.People's wrong ideas about AI writing.
D.Human efforts in developing AI writing.

In our free time, we should enjoy reading because books are full of knowledge. They can not only make us wiser but help us relax. We shouldn't be afraid of asking questions. Being curious is a good way to learn more and understand better.
We should also help the people in need. At weekends, we can talk with the elderly and help them do some cleaning.
That's all.Thanks for listening.初二英语作业检查

We walked together to Serpentine Avenue." You see, "said Holmes to me, "I don't think she wants others to see the photo. But where is it？At her bank？No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I'm sure it's in her house.
"But how will you know？"I asked. He said，"She'll show me. She'll have to." Just then Irene's taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting，and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene hurried to her front door, but she looked back. "How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt？"she called.
Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. Then Holmes put up his hand，and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house all began to shout "Fire!"very loudly.
The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.
"Well done, Watson，"he said."Have you got the photo？"I asked.
"I know where it is. She showed me，"he answered.
"But why did she show you？"
"It's easy，"he said，and laughed."You saw all those people in the street？I paid them to help us. It wasn't a real fight and the blood wasn't real. When people shout "Fire!", a woman runs to the most important thing in her house，her baby，her gold，or ...a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. The King himself can take the photo from the cupboard.And then we will go."

There are 8 billion humans on Earth.The sun is 150 million kilometers away. The universe （宇宙） may have 200 billion trillion （万亿） stars ...
As scientists explore the world with more and more advanced（先进的） tools, the numbers used are also becoming bigger. Recently, scientists added four new names for really big and really small measurements（度量）：ronna（1027）, quetta（1030）, ronto（10﹣27） and quecto（10﹣30）.
Do you find these numbers too big to make sense（有意义）？Don't worry. Almost all human brains have a problem dealing with big numbers." While living and evolving（进化）, our ancestors（祖先）had no need to develop such a skill, " US mathematician Spencer Greenberg told the science website Gizmodo. Early humans only needed to understand small quantities（数量）, like the number of people in the clan （族群）, or how many animals they had caught. "So it's not important to differentiate large from very large from an evolutionary perspective（进化的角度）."
However, there are some methods that can help us better understand big numbers. One way is to turn big numbers into something you are familiar with. For example, if imagining 400,000 people is too hard, you can think that an average soccer stadium can hold around 40,000 people. Then 400,000 people mean 10 soccer stadiums of people. Or if you have 1,000 yuan, then a millionaire (百万富翁) has 1,000 times more money than you.
Needless to say, there are limits to these methods. "This is why we often just 'do the math', " said Greenberg. "We can work with large numbers in calculations and get useful answers. We just can't necessarily understand the numbers throughout that process."
What might one quetta refer to？
A.One followed by 30 zeros.
B.A decimal point（小数点）followed by 26 zeros.
C.One followed by 27 zeros.
D.A decimal point（小数点）followed by 29 zeros.
53. According to Paragraph 3, we can learn that .
A.there were no large numbers in ancient times
B.ancient people didn't need to understand big numbers
C.human brains don't have a problem dealing with big numbers
D.big numbers appear throughout human evolution
54. According to the story, we can understand big numbers by
A.comparing the numbers to money
B.imagining how many people there are on Earth
C.thinking about how many soccer stadiums we have
D.turning them into something we are familiar with
55. What can we infer from the story？
A.Math is the best subject for us to understand the world.
B.People cannot understand numbers by doing calculations.
C.Extremely large numbers cannot be calculated.
D.Calculations help us deal with large numbers.

Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later you'll get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.
This robot writer is real. It's called ChatGPT. From writing Shakespeare - style poetry to making music, ChatGPT has amazed the world since its launch out in late 2022 by the US company OpenAI. OpenAI developed it to generate（生成）human - like texts. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It's one of the most powerful AI of its kind, with the complete writing abilities of a real person!
People around the world have tried ChatGPT and posted their results on social media. Some used it to write history reports，some asked it to take notes of presentations，and some even generated advice on how to communicate with people at a party, reported The Atlantic.
The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated（复杂的）matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution（进化论）. But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, harmful questions, such as how to make weapons（武器）, it will not give you an answer.
ChatGPT comes along at a time when AI is becoming increasingly able to do creative tasks. There is no doubt that ChatGPT is a powerful tool. However, some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned（禁止）the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the local networks and computers，CNN reported. The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread improper information.
"It does not build critical-thinking（批判性思维）and problem-solving skills，"said Jenna Lyle，the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education." The materials they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the issue of copyright（版权）. Since the system is largely trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet's biases（偏见）and stereotypes（刻板印象）about certain groups. These are all the things that depend on humans to solve."
The cat story was written to .
A.show what creative work ChatGPT can do
B.introduce a cat that wants to go to space
C.introduce a series of bedtime books
D.show how robots create scientific research
57. What do we know about ChatGPT？
A.It is still under development.
B.It is the most powerful kind of AI.
C.It can write almost anything humans can write.
D.People cannot tell the difference between ChatGPT and humans.
58. Paragraph 3 is mainly about .
A.the disadvantages of ChatGPT
B.how ChatGPT is developed
C.what people think about ChatGPT
D.how ChatGPT has helped people so far
pared with human writing，ChatGPT is .
A.faster B.safer C.more interesting D.more difficult
60. What's the main idea of the last paragraph？
A.How people feel about writing in the future.
B.What problems AI writing can cause.
C.People's wrong ideas about AI writing.
D.Human efforts in developing AI writing.
