Four schools from Beijing were in Hull to put on a show.
The schools, all from the Fengtai District in Beijing, have close ties to the city. Groups of students from Beijing and Hull regularly visit each other as part of a cultural and educational exchange programme.
Today’s special performance at Hull City Hall included various forms of traditional Chinese music, dance and acrobatics (杂技).
Lewis Anderson 26, started learning Chinese at the age of 13 and acts as a translator and organiser when the Chinese students visit the UK. He also currently studies at a university in China.
He said, “Cultural exchanges are really important because children start to appreciate everything in life. They start to learn that there isn’t only their view on things and they start to look at other cultures and appreciate their history and beauty. For example, when Hull students visit China, they might visit the Great Wall and enjoy traditional dancing and opera, and then they come home and think ‘What do we have that is the equivalent (相等的东西) of that ’ and they look at all the different things that we have and it starts to open their minds.”
The Chinese students are on a 12-day visit to the UK, visiting eight different cities, including four days in Hull. As part of their visit to Hull, they were invited to visit various museums, galleries and tourist sites in the city.
Lewis said, “The children love exploring Hull because it’s rich in history and everywhere you look it’s old, beautiful and attractive.”
At Hull City Hall the Chinese students performed a traditional Peking Opera, which combines music, vocal performance, dance and acrobatics. The performance is famous for featuring fantastic costumes and dazzling make-up.

On March 22, 2021, the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution published a new map of undiscovered species. This new effort is of great importance for Walter Jetz, a study co-author and professor at Yale University, US. “At the current pace of global environmental change, there is no doubt that many species will die out before we have ever learned about their existence and had the chance to consider their fate,” Jetz said.
Less than a decade ago, Yale researchers mapped out the world's life. Now Yale researchers have launched a more ambitious project—creating a map where life has yet to be discovered, whose goal is to help support biodiversity (生物多样性) discovery and preservation across the globe. According to the researchers, “Conservative estimates suggest only 13 to 18 percent of all living species have been identified, although this number could be as low as 1. 5 percent.” In the rapidly changing global environment, researchers are racing against time to discover the remaining species.
“Finding the missing pieces of the Earth's biodiversity puzzle is therefore crucial to improve biodiversity conservation worldwide,” explained the lead author Mario Moura, a biologist at the Federal University of Paraiba in Brazil. The map of undiscovered life is based on a model estimating where unknown species likely exist today, based on environmental, biological and sociological factors. The most undiscovered vertebrates (脊椎动物) — potentially 25 percent of all future discoveries—are expected to live in Brazil, Colombia, Madagascar and Indonesia. Tropical forests in these countries need protection and we must stop deforestation (滥砍滥伐) rates to discover our biodiversity.
“It is a fascinating project that allows us to better know biodiversity patterns on the planet,” Moura said. “We hope to motivate citizen scientists and biodiversity enthusiasts about the importance of species discovery and ignite (点燃) discussions and agreements from those responsible for decision-making and conservation planning.”
8. Why is the new map so important
A. It is helpful for us to protect the air.
B. It will prevent most species dying out.
C. It helps improve biodiversity conservation only in some countries
D. It helps support biodiversity discovery and preservation across the globe.
9. What may Yale researchers agree with
A. Only 23 percent of all living species have been identified
B. It is a race against time to discover the remaining species
C. Many species will go extinct after we have ever learned about them
D. The new map is based on a model estimating where the world's plants exist now
10. What does the underlined word “crucial” mean in Paragraph 3
A. Significant. B. Useless C. Scary D. Closing
11. What may be talked about in the following paragraph
A. The importance of species discovery
B. The impact of deforestation on undiscovered species
C. The more specific things we can do to help species discovery
D. The development of Nature Ecology & Evolution
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍世界首张未发现生命地图对全球生物多样性发现和保护的重要性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Now Yale researchers have launched a more ambitious project—creating a map where life has yet to be discovered, whose goal is to help support biodiversity discovery and preservation across the globe. (现在，耶鲁大学的研究人员发起了一个更加雄心勃勃的项目——绘制一张尚未发现生命的地图，其目标是帮助支持全球生物多样性的发现和保护)”可知，新地图之所以重要是因为它有助于支持全球范围内的生物多样性发现和保护。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“At the current pace of global environmental change, there is no doubt that many species will die out before we have ever learned about their existence and had the chance to consider their fate (以目前全球环境变化的速度，毫无疑问，许多物种在我们了解它们的存在并有机会考虑它们的命运之前就会灭绝)”和第二段的“In the rapidly changing global environment, researchers are racing against time to discover the remaining species. (在快速变化的全球环境中，研究人员正在与时间赛跑，以发现剩下的物种)”可知，耶鲁的研究员认为发现剩下的物种是与时间赛跑。故选B。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Finding the missing pieces of the Earth's biodiversity puzzle is therefore”以及后文“to improve biodiversity conservation worldwide”结合therefore表示因果关系，说明找到地球生物多样性之谜中缺失的部分，对改善全球生物多样性保护至关重要。故划线词意思是“重要的”。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“We hope to motivate citizen scientists and biodiversity enthusiasts about the importance of species discovery and ignite (点燃) discussions and agreements from those responsible for decision-making and conservation planning. (我们希望激发公民科学家和生物多样性爱好者对物种发现的重要性的认识，并点燃那些负责决策和保护规划的人的讨论和协议)”推知，下文很有可能介绍人们可以做哪些事情来帮助物种的发现。故选C。
D
The artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT can offer everything from answers to basic general knowledge questions, to writing essays and poems. Ask ChatGPT to write about the history of the French Revolution or Battles of Hastings, and it will provide a perfect essay in less than a second. It's such a powerful tool openly accessible to any student for free. However, AI-based plagiarism (抄 袭) or so called “AIgiarism” is fast taking off across student populations internationally, ringing alarm bells in schools and universities around the world
The developers OpenAI have since decided to prevent the misuse of its technology. The company is developing a system, water marks, for identifying those who cheat by submitting essays written by ChatGPT. By using the system which changes certain works into a recognizable pattern, the machine written text could be identified by anyone looking for the signs. These changes would not be noticeable to the reader. The researchers say that by setting up this kind of security system, it could prevent the technology from being misused for whatever reason. Such measures will also prevent an overdependence on the tool, which still has a long way to go before improving its accuracy, due to the fact that it collects the information from all over the internet. The CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, said in a statement that it would be a mistake to depend on it for anything important at this stage.
Schools also in turn have tried to take matters into their own hands, with many across Europe and the US updating their policies to warn of punishments for those who are caught using the program improperly.
Other schools have limited internet network access to ChatGPT on campus. Examiners have the sense to identify essays written by ChatGPT by a lack of emotion or personal experiences in them. This ability is a human advantage—AI will struggle to copy.
12. Why does the author mention French Revolution and Battles of Hastings
A. To explain what they are. B. To introduce the history of France.
C. To show the power of ChatGPT. D. To make a comparison between them.
13. What can we learn about the system mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. It will make ChatGPT helpless for people.
B. It will probably prevent an overdependence on ChatGPT.
C. The readers are worried about the system's future.
D. It has successfully recognized essays written by ChatGPT.
14. What can we know about AI according to the last paragraph
A. AI is able to match humans.
B. AI has no ability.
C. AI has an advantage over humans.
D. There is something that AI can't copy from humans.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Actions Against the Misuse of ChatGPT
B. ChatGPT Is Forbidden
C. All the Systems of OpenAI
D. ChatGPT—A Powerful Tool
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。ChatGPT可以在短时间内完美提供从基本常识问题的答案到写散文和诗歌的所有内容，导致人工智能剽窃正在全球学生群体中迅速兴起，为此，Open AI公司正在开发一种名为“水印”的系统，用于识别那些通过提交ChatGPT撰写的论文而作弊的人，同时，学校方面也有各种措施来防止学生滥用ChatGPT。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Ask ChatGPT to write about the history of the French Revolution or Battles of Hastings, and it will provide a perfect essay in less than a second. (让ChatGPT写一篇关于法国大革命或黑斯廷斯战役的历史，它会在不到一秒钟的时间内提供一篇完美的文章。)”可知，作者提到法国大革命和黑斯廷斯战役来展示ChatGPT的强大功能。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Such measures will also prevent an overdependence on the tool, which still has a long way to go before improving its accuracy, due to the fact that it collects the information from all over the internet. (这些措施还将防止对该工具过度依赖，由于该工具收集了来自互联网的所有信息，因此在提高其准确性之前还有很长的路要走。)”可知，这套系统可以防止使用者对ChatGPT的过度依赖。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Examiners have the sense to identify essays written by ChatGPT by a lack of emotion or personal experiences in them. This ability is a human advantage—AI will struggle to copy. (考官们有一种感觉，通过ChatGPT写的文章缺乏情感或个人经历来识别它们。这种能力是人类的优势——人工智能将难以复制。)”可知，人类写的文章富含情感或个人经历，人工智能在这方面无法和人类相媲美。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段中“The developers Open AI have since decided to prevent the misuse of its technology. The company is developing a system, water marks, for identifying those who cheat by submitting essays written by ChatGPT. (开发者Open AI已经决定防止其技术被滥用。该公司正在开发一种名为‘水印’的系统，用于识别那些通过提交ChatGPT撰写的论文而作弊的人。)”，以及第三段“Schools also in turn have tried to take matters into their own hands, with many across Europe and the US updating their policies to warn of punishments for those who are caught using the program improperly. (反过来，学校也试图掌握自己的主动权，欧洲和美国的许多学校都更新了政策，警告那些被发现不当使用该项目的人将受到惩罚。)”，第四段“Other schools have limited internet network access to ChatGPT on campus.(其他学校对校园ChatGPT的互联网接入有限。)”可知，除了Open AI公司正在开发的名为“水印”的系统，学校方面也有措施来防止学生滥用ChatGPT在学术论文的撰写中。D项“Actions Against the Misuse of ChatGPT (防止滥用ChatGPT的行动)”适合作文章的标题，故选A项。

【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：为了制作这样一件艺术品，手艺人将融化的糖舀起来，在金属上形成图案。分析句子结构可知，空处为非谓语动词作目的状语，所以用动词不定式。故填To make。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意：在液态糖变硬之前，在中间放一根木棍，把它变成棒棒糖，与金属分离。in the middle“在中间”，固定短语。故填the。
【39题详解】

【41题详解】
考查连词。句意：但在明代，只有权贵才能买得起。结合句意可知，空处需要连词and连接两个并列的形容词。the rich and powerful表示一类人，指“富人和有权利的人”。故填and。

考查时态和主谓一致。句意：从那时起，糖画就开始流行起来。分析句子结构可知，空处为句子的谓语动词。根据时间状语“since then”可知，句子为现在完成时态，主语为名词复数，助动词用have。故填have become。
【43题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：糖画家受邀参加当今国内外的文化活动。分析句子结构可知，空处为句子的谓语动词。根据时间状语nowadays可知，句子为一般现在时。主语和该动词之间为被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为复数，be动词用are。故填are invited。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在网上，甚至还有为孩子们制作的玩具，比如3D钢笔。分析句子结构可知，空处为非谓语动词作后置定语，修饰名词toys。该动词和修饰的名词之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词。故填created。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：当然，任何感兴趣的人都可以试一试。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词anyone，先行词指人，关系词在定语从句作主语，所以用关系代词who引导定语从句。故填who。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Phil was a successful businessman. One day, he went for a lunch at a new restaurant. While waiting or his meal, Phil looked at the people in the park. Suddenly, a young boy’s face caught his attention.
“Wait, do I know him ” he wondered. He walked out of the restaurant. When he approached the little boy, he saw the boy begging for money. When Phil saw the boy turn towards him, “Yes, I know him!” Phil thought. Phil knew the boy and his mother very well.
Phil was in his senior year when Melissa, the boy’s mother, joined the university as a teaching assistant. She met Phil when his teachers wanted to make him leave the university because of his poor performance. Melissa stood up for him and asked his teachers to give him one last chance.
Phil agreed to study under Melissa’s guidance and was amazed to see how she taught him the knowledge he couldn’t follow earlier. He considered her as his mentor (导师) and respected her a lot.
After graduating, Phil set up his company and applied the knowledge that Melissa had taught him. He quickly made huge profits and was always grateful to Melissa.
“Hey! What happened to your mom ” Phil asked the boy.
“She hasn’t been feeling well for the past year,” the boy replied while he tried to recognize Phil. “The doctors says she needs immediate surgery (外科手术), but we can’t afford it.”
“I’m so sorry to hear that,” Phil said.
“We sold everything we owned,” the boy said. “We paid for her first operation, but now we have nothing. She needs another surgery as soon as possible.”
“I can’t believe this,” Phil said while holding back his tears. “Can you take me to the hospital I want to meet your mother.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为120左右；

【答案】One possible version:
The boy agreed and jumped into Phil’s car. Phil tried his best not to cry on the way to the hospital, but he couldn’t help it. He was shocked to learn about Melissa’s illness. After parking the car, Phil followed the boy to the hospital room and talked to the doctors about the woman’s condition. “Ms. Melissa needs immediate surgery,” the doctor said. “We will begin the surgery as soon as we are ready.” Phil nodded and told the doctors he would pay for the surgery.
Phil sat in the waiting room beside the boy while the doctors performed Melissa’s surgery. Hours later, a team of doctors and nurses came out of the operation room and told Phil everything was fine. When Melissa gained awareness, her son hugged her, “Mom, do you know who paid for your surgery ” Melissa turned her eyes to Phil. “Phil Is that you ” she smiled.“Yes, Ms. Melissa,” Phil smiled back. “Your favorite student is here!” With hands holding together, they talked about their past good days happily.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述成功的商人Phil一天看到一个他感觉很熟悉的男孩在乞讨，这让他想到了多年前给他帮助的Melissa，也就是男孩的母亲。如果没有Melissa的帮助，Phil不可能完成大学学业，更不用说取得成功。Phil从男孩那得知，他乞讨是因为母亲生病需要手术，但家里该卖的东西都卖光了。听到这些Phil很伤心，他要求男孩带他去Melissa所在的医院。

Four schools from Beijing were in Hull to put on a show.
The schools, all from the Fengtai District in Beijing, have close ties to the city. Groups of students from Beijing and Hull regularly visit each other as part of a cultural and educational exchange programme.
Today’s special performance at Hull City Hall included various forms of traditional Chinese music, dance and acrobatics (杂技).
Lewis Anderson, 26, started learning Chinese at the age of 13 and acts as a translator and organiser when the Chinese students visit the UK. He also currently studies at a university in China.
He said, “Cultural exchanges are really important because children start to appreciate everything in life. They start to learn that there isn’t only their view on things and they start to look at other cultures and appreciate their history and beauty. For example, when Hull students visit China, they might visit the Great Wall and enjoy traditional dancing and opera, and then they come home and think ‘What do we have that is the equivalent (相等的东西) of that ’ and they look at all the different things that we have and it starts to open their minds.”
The Chinese students are on a 12-day visit to the UK, visiting eight different cities, including four days in Hull. As part of their visit to Hull, they were invited to visit various museums, galleries and tourist sites in the city.
Lewis said, “The children love exploring Hull because it’s rich in history and everywhere you look it’s old, beautiful and attractive.”
At Hull City Hall the Chinese students performed a traditional Peking Opera, which combines music, vocal performance, dance and acrobatics. The performance is famous for featuring fantastic costumes and dazzling make-up.
4. What did Lewis think of cultural exchanges
A. They benefit students in their development.
B. They should get more public attention.
C They inspire more children to study in China.
D. They bring tradition to life.
5. Which of the following best describes the students’ visit to Hull
A. It put them on the road to explore the nature.
B. It was a month-long tour.
C. It changed their attitudes to the costumes.
D. It was a journey into history.
6. What did the students do at Hull City Hall
A. They only told Chinese stories to the locals.
B. They performed Peking Opera.
C. They taught the locals Peking Opera.
D. They introduced their schools to the locals.
7. What is the text
A A diary. B. A play review. C. A news report. D. A school notice.
C
On March 22, 2021, the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution published a new map of undiscovered species. This new effort is of great importance for Walter Jetz, a study co-author and professor at Yale University, US. “At the current pace of global environmental change, there is no doubt that many species will die out before we have ever learned about their existence and had the chance to consider their fate,” Jetz said.
Less than a decade ago, Yale researchers mapped out the world's life. Now Yale researchers have launched a more ambitious project—creating a map where life has yet to be discovered, whose goal is to help support biodiversity (生物多样性) discovery and preservation across the globe. According to the researchers, “Conservative estimates suggest only 13 to 18 percent of all living species have been identified, although this number could be as low as 1. 5 percent.” In the rapidly changing global environment, researchers are racing against time to discover the remaining species.
“Finding the missing pieces of the Earth's biodiversity puzzle is therefore crucial to improve biodiversity conservation worldwide,” explained the lead author Mario Moura, a biologist at the Federal University of Paraiba in Brazil. The map of undiscovered life is based on a model estimating where unknown species likely exist today, based on environmental, biological and sociological factors. The most undiscovered vertebrates (脊椎动物) — potentially 25 percent of all future discoveries—are expected to live in Brazil, Colombia, Madagascar and Indonesia. Tropical forests in these countries need protection and we must stop deforestation (滥砍滥伐) rates to discover our biodiversity.
“It is a fascinating project that allows us to better know biodiversity patterns on the planet” Moura said. “We hope to motivate citizen scientists and biodiversity enthusiasts about the importance of species discovery and ignite (点燃) discussions and agreements from those responsible for decision-making and conservation planning.”
8. Why is the new map so important
A. It is helpful for us to protect the air.
B. It will prevent most species dying out.
C. It helps improve biodiversity conservation only in some countries
D. It helps support biodiversity discovery and preservation across the globe.
9. What may Yale researchers agree with
A. Only 23 percent of all living species have been identified
B. It is a race against time to discover the remaining species
C. Many species will go extinct after we have ever learned about them
D. The new map is based on a model estimating where the world's plants exist now
10. What does the underlined word “crucial” mean in Paragraph 3
A. Significant. B. Useless C. Scary D. Closing
11. What may be talked about in the following paragraph
A. The importance of species discovery
B. The impact of deforestation on undiscovered species
C. The more specific things we can do to help species discovery

The artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT can offer everything from answers to basic general knowledge questions, to writing essays and poems. Ask ChatGPT to write about the history of the French Revolution or Battles of Hastings, and it will provide a perfect essay in less than a second. It's such a powerful tool openly accessible to any student for free. However, AI-based plagiarism (抄 袭) or so called “AIgiarism” is fast taking off across student populations internationally, ringing alarm bells in schools and universities around the world
The developers OpenAI have since decided to prevent the misuse of its technology. The company is developing a system, water marks, for identifying those who cheat by submitting essays written by ChatGPT. By using the system which changes certain works into a recognizable pattern, the machine written text could be identified by anyone looking for the signs. These changes would not be noticeable to the reader. The researchers say that by setting up this kind of security system, it could prevent the technology from being misused for whatever reason. Such measures will also prevent an overdependence on the tool, which still has a long way to go before improving its accuracy, due to the fact that it collects the information from all over the internet. The CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, said in a statement that it would be a mistake to depend on it for anything important at this stage.
Schools also in turn have tried to take matters into their own hands, with many across Europe and the US updating their policies to warn of punishments for those who are caught using the program improperly.
Other schools have limited internet network access to ChatGPT on campus. Examiners have the sense to identify essays written by ChatGPT by a lack of emotion or personal experiences in them. This ability is a human advantage—AI will struggle to copy.
