While I was jumping rope, my smartphone took a fall to the floor which created cracks(裂缝)on my screen. However, the music kept playing. 30 minutes later, I could see only one-tenth of my screen while the rest was black. The next morning, I decided not to use it for 24 hours. I felt a sense of calm that day, which led to my not using it for on week. One week ended up becoming 60 days in total without my smartphone.
Here are some advantages I noticed in this challenge.
-You'll become "bored"

"Children, tomorrow I shall expect all of you to write compositions," said a teacher of Love Lane School.
"Then, on Friday those who have done the best may stand up and read their compositions to the school." Some of the children were pleased, and some were not. "What shall we write about " they asked.
Some of them thought that "Home" was a good subject. Others liked "School". One little boy chose "The Horse". A little girl said she would write about "Summer". The next day, every pupil except Henry Longfellow had written a composition. "Well, then," said the teacher, "you may take your notebook and go out behind the schoolhouse for half an hour. Think of something to write about, and write the word on your notebook. Then try to tell what it is, what it is like, what it is good for, and what is done with it. That is the way to write a composition."
Henry took his notebook and went out. Just behind the schoolhouse was Mr. Finney s barn. Quite close to the barn was a garden. And in the garden, Henry saw a turnip(萝卜).
"Well, I know what that is," he said to himself and he wrote the word turnip on his notebook. Then he tried to tell what it was like, what it was good for, and what was done with it.
Within half an hour, he had written a very neat composition on his notebook. He then went into the house, and waited while the teacher read it. The teacher was surprised and pleased. He said, "Henry Longfellow, you have done very well. Today you may stand up before the school and read what you have written about the turnip."
Many years after that, some funny little poems about Mr. Finney s turnip were printed in a newspaper. Some people said that they were what Henry Longfellow wrote on his notebook that day at school.
13.Some students were not pleased probably because (  ).
A.the teacher would not read their compositions
B.they did worse than other students at school

The world is full of screens.They are on TVs, computers and smartphones.Screens are at school, at home, and just about everywhere in between.The time people spend every day looking at screens is known as "screen time. "
Most families have rules about how much time children can spend with screens.Why do they have rules Are there good reasons to limit screen time
In many ways, screens are helpful for communication and connecting with other people.Social media and video calls allow people to be always in touch with one another.____By sharing and commenting on videos, photos, games or music, people can meet others who have similar interests.
However, some adults are worried that young people spend too much time on screens and not enough time meeting people in real life.As a result, they may not properly understand feelings or develop strong relationships.
Many kinds of screen time may be good for students.Students may use screen time to develop their skills in creating music or videos.They may even learn skills such as coding(编程)computer programs.When students use their screen time to do research online, they may meet people who are different from them or ideas they have never thought about before.
However, some researchers think that screens change how the brain processes information.Some have linked(连接) screen time to lower test scores or less attention time.
In the future, scientists will continue studying the effects of screen time.Parents will likely continue to make rules limiting screen time.Plenty of good things can come from all this screen time, but it's a good idea for people to pay attention to how much time in a day they spend looking at a screen.They should know how screen time influences
their health, relationships, and learning.
18.Choose the best sentence to fill in the blank"     " in Paragraph 2.
A. People create videos and photos with their screen time.
B. People spend too much time sharing photos and videos.
C. Screen time can also help people build new relationships.
D. Screen time encourages people to meet friends in real
life.
19.Which group of screen-time activities would "coding" belong to

Scientists at Purdue University created the world's whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the "which white should we paint this wall" dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis.
The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. "When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind," Ruan said in a podcast(播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning.
Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city's power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175, 000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places.
The paint reflects 98. 1% of solar radiation while also giving out infrared(红外线的)heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1, 000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts of cooling power, the researchers found. "That's more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses," Ruan told This Is Purdue.
You can't buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight climate change can help save our planet, it's important to note that the vast majority of the world's greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100 companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot.
23.What is known about the paint
A.It has different colors. B.It doesn't cost much.
C.It uses heating technology. D.It is climate-friendly.
24.What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show
A.The poor management of power.
B.The significance of the paint.
C.The importance of air conditioning.
D.The result of global warming.
25.Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4
A.Its application. B.Its function.
C.Its composition. D.Its disadvantage.
26.What can be learned from the last paragraph
A.The quality of the paint needs improving.
B.The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies.
C.Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use.
D.Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint.

Tetraplegic paticnts(those who can't move their upper or lower body) are prisoners of their own bodies. Now a robot arm is to help them interact with their world. This research was completed by researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL). Professor Aude Billard and Jose del R. Millan worked together to create a computer program that can control a robot using electrical signals from a patient's brain.
First, the user wears an EEG cap to have their electrical signals inside their brain scanned(扫描)effectively, which are then interpreted by the machine-learning algorithm (算法). The computer then sends signals to the robot arm to determine how it moves. As the robot arm performs a motion, the algorithm is looking to get feedback from the user when it makes a mistake:perhaps it moved too fast, or too violently. The end goal is that the robot can learn the right movements for a task in a given context. For example, you might want the arm to use a bit of force to throw a paper ball, but you might want it to be gentler when putting glass bottles.
In the team's research, they trained the robot arm to pick up a glass. The arm would move towards the glass and the user's brain would decide if they felt it was too close or too far away. The process is repeated until the robot understands the optimal route for the individual's preference - not too close to be a risk but not so far away to waste movement.
"Training an algorithm to read brain waves in a consistent fashion was the most challenging part, because the brain is not only focused on the hand but also processing many other things, " said Millan. "This means our algorithm will never be 100% accurate. "
The researchers hope to eventually use their algorithm to control wheelchairs, which would allow people in wheelchairs to have greater control over their movements, speeds and general safety. However, this does require contirtency. over time frour the algorithm.
27.Which paragraph mentions the working process
A.Paragraph 1. B.Paragraph 2. C.Paragraph 3. D.Paragraph 4.
28.What does the underlined word "optimal" in paragraph 3 mean
A.Indirect. B.Best. C.Regular. D.Alternative.
29.How can the accuracy of reading brain waves be improved
A.By controlling people's brain.
B.By ensuring general safety.
C.By processing other information.
D.By gaining data continuously.
30.What could be the best title of the text
A.This robot arm can read your mind.
B.Robot arms control your movement.
C.Algorithm finds cure for the disabled.
D.Machine-learning algorithm can train robots.

Sitting in the garden for my friend's birthday. I felt a buzz(振动) in my pocket. My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name. The email started off: "Dear Mr Green, thank you for your interest" and "the review process took longer than expected. "It ended with" We are sorry to inform you…"and my vision blurred(模糊). The position-measuring soil quality in the Sahara Desert as part of an undergraduate research programme-had felt like the answer I had spent years looking for.
I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying, and I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.
So I was shocked when, not long after the email, Professor Mary Devon, who was running the programme, invited me to observe the work being done in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shocked-and overjoyed-when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab. What she proposed didn't seem as exciting as the original project I had applied to, but I was going to give it my all.
I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely. That project, which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert, not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn't. In the end. I had a new scientific interest to pursue.
When I applied to graduate school, I found three programmes promising to allow me to follow my desired research direction. And I applied with the same anxious excitement as before. When I was rejected from one that had seemed like a perfect fit, it was undoubtedly difficult. But this time I had the perspective(视角)to keep it from sending me into panic. It helped that in the end I was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.
Rather than setting plans in stone, I've learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered, even if they don't sound perfect at the time, and make the most of them.
31.How did the author feel upon seeing the email sender's name
A.Anxious. B.Angry. C.Surprised. D.Settled.
32.After talking with Professor Devon, the author decided to.
A.criticise the review process
B.stay longer in the Sahara Desert
C.apply to the original project again
D.put his heart and soul into the lab work
33.According to the author, the project with the robotics professor was.
A.demanding B.inspiring C.misleading D.amusing
34.What can we learn from this passage
A.An invitation is a reputation.
B.An innovation is a resolution.
C.A rejection can be a redirection.
D.A reflection can be a restriction.

What is life Like most great questions, this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer.The reason is simple:we know of just one type of life and it's challenging to do science with a sample size of one.The field of artificial life-called A Life for short-is the systematic attempt to spell out life's fundamental principles.Many of these practitioners, so-called A Lifers, think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.
So far no one has convincingly made artificial life.This track record makes A Life a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field's doubtful scientific value.Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints.Asking about "the point" of A Life might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says."The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything."Alan says."Some people ask me, 'So what's the worth of artificial life 'Do you ever think, 'What is the worth of your grandmother "
As much as many A Lifers hate emphasising their research's applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs.Artificial intelligence may be considered A Life's cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamoured by a concept called open-ended evolution(演化).This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity, to be a sort of"novelty generator".The only system known to exhibit this is Earth's biosphere.If the field of A Life manages to reproduce life's endless"creativity" in some virtual model, those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.
Compared with the developments of Al, advances in A Life are harder to recognise.One reason is that A Life is a field in which the central concept--life itself-is undefined.The lack of agreement among A Lifers doesn't help either.The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths.For better or worse, A Life mirrors the very subject it studies.Its muddled(混乱的)progression is a striking parallel(平行线) to the evolutionary struggles that have shaped Earth biosphere.
Undefined and uncontrolled, A Life drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty.It may be, of course, that these characteristics aren't in any way surprising or singular.They may apply universally to all acts of evolution.Ultimately A Life may be nothing special.But even this dismissal suggests something:perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of A Life will prove unavoidable.
35.Regarding Alan Smith's defence of A Life, the author is ____
A.supportive B.puzzled C.unconcerned D.doubtful
36.What does the word "enamoured" underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A.Shocked. B.Protected. C.Attracted. D.Challenged.
37.What can we learn from this passage
A.A Life holds the key to human future.
B.A Life and AI share a common feature.
C.AI mirrors the developments of A Life.
D.AI speeds up the process of human evolution.
38.Which would be the best title for the passage
A.Life Is Undefined.Can AI Be a Way Out
B.Life Evolves.Can AI Help ALife Evolve, Too
C.Life Is Undefined.Can ALife Be Defined One Day
D.Life Evolves.Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve,
Too

Have you ever had to overcome an extreme challenge in your life
My teenage years had been insane. From schoolwork to athletics, I had always been running around. Everything was so difficult.
Throughout my hectic teenage years I have been faced with many extreme challenges that have required extreme focus and hard work to overcome. If it hadn't been for hard work, none of these challenges that I faced would have been conquered.
Two years ago, when I was a freshman in high school, I dealt with an extremely significant injury. This took place in my tennis tournament in January. In the climax of my match, I jolted my back to the left and soon after felt a sharp, painful shock run through my spine. I knew at that difficult moment I seriously injured my back. I was rushed off the court and my parents made an appointment with an orthopedist (矫形外科医生)for the next morning.
I walked into the office extremely nervous and suffering from excruciating pain. My tennis season for school started in three months and I absolutely needed to build up the strength.
After about twenty minutes of waiting in the office, which felt like an eternity, the doctor walked in to examine my Xrays. With a sorrowful face, the doctor looked into mine and my mother's eyes and said," There is a 50/50 chance that Lucas will be able to participate in this years tennis season. Lucas broke his L5 vertebrae in his lower back. " My heart dropped and I felt a sadness come over me. The doctor said that I would be sitting out of physical activity for two and a half to three months.
Those three months were the longest three months of my life. I was so eager to get back to practices for the season. Every day, I would think about how it was going to be when I was fully healthy. I asked myself, "Am I going to be out of shape Should I even play this year I probably won't have a successful season. "
From that dreadful day on, I decided that I was going to put in the work to be back in top form and have a successful season.

67.句意:最开始的运河系统开始于公元605年左右,那是中国的隋炀帝意识到他需要一个更好的方式来运送食物和供给军队,因此这个皇帝命令建造大运河的第一部分,连接起那些已经存在的运河、湖泊和河流。主句谓语动词为began,故该动词只能作非谓语动词,大运河连接起了其他部分,the Grand Canal与connect是一种主动关系,故用现在分词形式,故填connecting。
68.句意:超过一千年以来,货物沿着大运河被运输。根据时间状语for more than a thousand years,可知动作持续了一千多年到现在还没结束,用现在完成时;同时货物goods与运输transport是被动关系,故用现在完成时的被动语态,故填have been transported。

73.随着在2014年联合国教科文组织对其身份的正式授予,世界上最伟大的工程成就将在未来的世纪中,继续联系着中国的南北方。持续几个世纪,用century的复数形式,故填centuries。

Some of them thought that "Home" was a good subject. Others liked "School". One little boy chose "The Horse". A little girl said she would write about "Summer". The next day, every pupil except Henry Longfellow had written a composition. "Well, then," said the teacher, "you may take your notebook and go out behind the schoolhouse for half an hour. Think of something to write about, and write the word on your notebook. Then try to tell what it is, what it is like, what it is good for, and what is done with it. That is the way to write a composition."
Henry took his notebook and went out. Just behind the schoolhouse was Mr. Finney s barn. Quite close to the barn was a garden. And in the garden, Henry saw a turnip(萝卜).
"Well, I know what that is," he said to himself and he wrote the word turnip on his notebook. Then he tried to tell what it was like, what it was good for, and what was done with it.
Within half an hour, he had written a very neat composition on his notebook. He then went into the house, and waited while the teacher read it. The teacher was surprised and pleased. He said, "Henry Longfellow, you have done very well. Today you may stand up before the school and read what you have written about the turnip."
Many years after that, some funny little poems about Mr. Finney s turnip were printed in a newspaper. Some people said that they were what Henry Longfellow wrote on his notebook that day at school.

A.the teacher would not read their compositions
B.they did worse than other students at school
C.they didn t know what to write about the composition

The world is full of screens.They are on TVs, computers and smartphones.Screens are at school, at home, and just about everywhere in between.The time people spend every day looking at screens is known as "screen time. "
Most families have rules about how much time children can spend with screens.Why do they have rules Are there good reasons to limit screen time
In many ways, screens are helpful for communication and connecting with other people.Social media and video calls allow people to be always in touch with one another.____By sharing and commenting on videos, photos, games or music, people can meet others who have similar interests.
However, some adults are worried that young people spend too much time on screens and not enough time meeting people in real life.As a result, they may not properly understand feelings or develop strong relationships.
Many kinds of screen time may be good for students.Students may use screen time to develop their skills in creating music or videos.They may even learn skills such as coding(编程)computer programs.When students use their screen time to do research online, they may meet people who are different from them or ideas they have never thought about before.
However, some researchers think that screens change how the brain processes information.Some have linked(连接) screen time to lower test scores or less attention time.
In the future, scientists will continue studying the effects of screen time.Parents will likely continue to make rules limiting screen time.Plenty of good things can come from all this screen time, but it's a good idea for people to pay attention to how much time in a day they spend looking at a screen.They should know how screen time influences
their health, relationships, and learning.
18.Choose the best sentence to fill in the blank"     " in Paragraph 2.
A. People create videos and photos with their screen time.

Scientists at Purdue University created the world's whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the "which white should we paint this wall" dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis.
The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. "When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind," Ruan said in a podcast(播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning.
Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city's power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175, 000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places.
The paint reflects 98. 1% of solar radiation while also giving out infrared(红外线的)heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1, 000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts of cooling power, the researchers found. "That's more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses," Ruan told This Is Purdue.
You can't buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight climate change can help save our planet, it's important to note that the vast majority of the world's greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100 companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot.
23.What is known about the paint
A.It has different colors. B.It doesn't cost much.
C.It uses heating technology. D.It is climate-friendly.
24.What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show
A.The poor management of power.
B.The significance of the paint.
C.The importance of air conditioning.
D.The result of global warming.
25.Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4
A.Its application. B.Its function.
C.Its composition. D.Its disadvantage.
26.What can be learned from the last paragraph
A.The quality of the paint needs improving.
B.The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies.
C.Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use.
D.Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint.

Tetraplegic paticnts(those who can't move their upper or lower body) are prisoners of their own bodies. Now a robot arm is to help them interact with their world. This research was completed by researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL). Professor Aude Billard and Jose del R. Millan worked together to create a computer program that can control a robot using electrical signals from a patient's brain.
First, the user wears an EEG cap to have their electrical signals inside their brain scanned(扫描)effectively, which are then interpreted by the machine-learning algorithm (算法). The computer then sends signals to the robot arm to determine how it moves. As the robot arm performs a motion, the algorithm is looking to get feedback from the user when it makes a mistake:perhaps it moved too fast, or too violently. The end goal is that the robot can learn the right movements for a task in a given context. For example, you might want the arm to use a bit of force to throw a paper ball, but you might want it to be gentler when putting glass bottles.
In the team's research, they trained the robot arm to pick up a glass. The arm would move towards the glass and the user's brain would decide if they felt it was too close or too far away. The process is repeated until the robot understands the optimal route for the individual's preference - not too close to be a risk but not so far away to waste movement.
"Training an algorithm to read brain waves in a consistent fashion was the most challenging part, because the brain is not only focused on the hand but also processing many other things, " said Millan. "This means our algorithm will never be 100% accurate. "
The researchers hope to eventually use their algorithm to control wheelchairs, which would allow people in wheelchairs to have greater control over their movements, speeds and general safety. However, this does require contirtency. over time frour the algorithm.
27.Which paragraph mentions the working process
A.Paragraph 1. B.Paragraph 2. C.Paragraph 3. D.Paragraph 4.
28.What does the underlined word "optimal" in paragraph 3 mean
A.Indirect. B.Best. C.Regular. D.Alternative.
29.How can the accuracy of reading brain waves be improved
A.By controlling people's brain.
B.By ensuring general safety.
C.By processing other information.
D.By gaining data continuously.
30.What could be the best title of the text

Sitting in the garden for my friend's birthday. I felt a buzz(振动) in my pocket. My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name. The email started off: "Dear Mr Green, thank you for your interest" and "the review process took longer than expected. "It ended with" We are sorry to inform you…"and my vision blurred(模糊). The position-measuring soil quality in the Sahara Desert as part of an undergraduate research programme-had felt like the answer I had spent years looking for.
I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying, and I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.
So I was shocked when, not long after the email, Professor Mary Devon, who was running the programme, invited me to observe the work being done in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shocked-and overjoyed-when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab. What she proposed didn't seem as exciting as the original project I had applied to, but I was going to give it my all.
I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely. That project, which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert, not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn't. In the end. I had a new scientific interest to pursue.
When I applied to graduate school, I found three programmes promising to allow me to follow my desired research direction. And I applied with the same anxious excitement as before. When I was rejected from one that had seemed like a perfect fit, it was undoubtedly difficult. But this time I had the perspective(视角)to keep it from sending me into panic. It helped that in the end I was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.
Rather than setting plans in stone, I've learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered, even if they don't sound perfect at the time, and make the most of them.
31.How did the author feel upon seeing the email sender's name
A.Anxious. B.Angry. C.Surprised. D.Settled.
32.After talking with Professor Devon, the author decided to.
A.criticise the review process
B.stay longer in the Sahara Desert
C.apply to the original project again
D.put his heart and soul into the lab work
33.According to the author, the project with the robotics professor was.
A.demanding B.inspiring C.misleading D.amusing
34.What can we learn from this passage
A.An invitation is a reputation.
B.An innovation is a resolution.
C.A rejection can be a redirection.
D.A reflection can be a restriction.

31.推理判断题。根据 My heart raced when I saw the email sender's name. 以及下文 I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying 可知,作者当时看到邮件发送者名字时心跳很快,根据后面他讲到自己在这个项目上花费了大量的时间和精力,所以他很害怕收到被拒绝的消息,因此内心是焦虑的。anxious焦虑的;angry生气的;surprised吃惊的;settled平静的。故选A。
32.细节理解题。根据What she proposed didn't seem as exciting as the original project I had applied to, but I was going to give it my all. 可知我将把自己的一切(my all)都投入到项目研究当中,故选D,指的是全身心投入到实验室工作中。
33.推理判断题。根据That project, which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert, not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn't.可知,这次的研究是在沙发上,不需要像传统的方式进入炎热的沙漠,同时根据最后一句 In the end. I had a new scientific interest to pursue. 可知,这样的新颖工作体验让我有了新的科研兴趣,所以这里的工作经历很具启发性。demanding要求高的;insporing具有启发性的;misleading误导的;amusing娱乐的。故选B。
34.推理判断题。根据 I've learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered, even if they don't sound perfect at the time, and make the most of them. 可知,我从这次的经历中体会到,尽管被之前的项目拒绝了,但是自己应该学会接受新的选择,尽管也许没有被拒绝的项目那么符合心意。所以,拒绝也能给自己一个新的方向,故选C。

What is life Like most great questions, this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer.The reason is simple:we know of just one type of life and it's challenging to do science with a sample size of one.The field of artificial life-called A Life for short-is the systematic attempt to spell out life's fundamental principles.Many of these practitioners, so-called A Lifers, think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.
So far no one has convincingly made artificial life.This track record makes A Life a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field's doubtful scientific value.Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints.Asking about "the point" of A Life might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says."The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything."Alan says."Some people ask me, 'So what's the worth of artificial life 'Do you ever think, 'What is the worth of your grandmother "
As much as many A Lifers hate emphasising their research's applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs.Artificial intelligence may be considered A Life's cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamoured by a concept called open-ended evolution(演化).This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity, to be a sort of"novelty generator".The only system known to exhibit this is Earth's biosphere.If the field of A Life manages to reproduce life's endless"creativity" in some virtual model, those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.
Compared with the developments of Al, advances in A Life are harder to recognise.One reason is that A Life is a field in which the central concept--life itself-is undefined.The lack of agreement among A Lifers doesn't help either.The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths.For better or worse, A Life mirrors the very subject it studies.Its muddled(混乱的)progression is a striking parallel(平行线) to the evolutionary struggles that have shaped Earth biosphere.
Undefined and uncontrolled, A Life drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty.It may be, of course, that these characteristics aren't in any way surprising or singular.They may apply universally to all acts of evolution.Ultimately A Life may be nothing special.But even this dismissal suggests something:perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of A Life will prove unavoidable.
35.Regarding Alan Smith's defence of A Life, the author is ____
A.supportive B.puzzled C.unconcerned D.doubtful
36.What does the word "enamoured" underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A.Shocked. B.Protected. C.Attracted. D.Challenged.
37.What can we learn from this passage
A.A Life holds the key to human future.
B.A Life and AI share a common feature.
C.AI mirrors the developments of A Life.
D.AI speeds up the process of human evolution.
38.Which would be the best title for the passage
A.Life Is Undefined.Can AI Be a Way Out
B.Life Evolves.Can AI Help ALife Evolve, Too
C.Life Is Undefined.Can ALife Be Defined One Day
D.Life Evolves.Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve,

66.句意:最开始的运河系统开始于公元605年左右,那是中国的隋炀帝意识到他需要一个更好的方式来运送食物和供给军队,因此这个皇帝命令建造大运河的第一部分,连接起那些已经存在的运河、湖泊和河流。空格前面是主句,空格后面是一个时间状语从句,缺少表达时间的连接词,while一般是表达进行时或者表达转折,故填when。
67.句意:最开始的运河系统开始于公元605年左右,那是中国的隋炀帝意识到他需要一个更好的方式来运送食物和供给军队,因此这个皇帝命令建造大运河的第一部分,连接起那些已经存在的运河、湖泊和河流。主句谓语动词为began,故该动词只能作非谓语动词,大运河连接起了其他部分,the Grand Canal与connect是一种主动关系,故用现在分词形式,故填connecting。
68.句意:超过一千年以来,货物沿着大运河被运输。根据时间状语for more than a thousand years,可知动作持续了一千多年到现在还没结束,用现在完成时;同时货物goods与运输transport是被动关系,故用现在完成时的被动语态,故填have been transported。
69.句意:船只不断在杭州和济宁之间运输成吨的煤炭、食物和其他货物。在A和B之间,用between A and B,故填between。
70.句意:然而,当地的政府渴望增加旅游产业,并且城市的发展已经拆除了几乎所有旧的运河沿岸的建筑。increase增加,tour是名词旅游,根据下文城市的发展可知这里讲的是旅游业,故填tourism。
71.句意:2005年一组市民提议这座具有历史意义的大运河应该被列入世界文化遗址,希望这一地位能同时保护水道和周围的建筑。这里指的是市民想让大运河成为一处世界文化遗址,不需要特指,用不定冠词a。
72.句意:随着在2014年联合国教科文组织对其身份的正式授予,世界上最伟大的工程成就将在未来的世纪中,继续联系着中国的南北方。这里是with引导的伴随状语,主句在逗号后面,真正的谓语动词为contimue,故这里的grant授予作非谓语动词,与大运河是被动关系,be done,用过去分词形式granted,故填granted。
73.随着在2014年联合国教科文组织对其身份的正式授予,世界上最伟大的工程成就将在未来的世纪中,继续联系着中国的南北方。持续几个世纪,用century的复数形式,故填centuries。

Have you ever had to overcome an extreme challenge in your life
My teenage years had been insane. From schoolwork to athletics, I had always been running around. Everything was so difficult.
Throughout my hectic teenage years I have been faced with many extreme challenges that have required extreme focus and hard work to overcome. If it hadn't been for hard work, none of these challenges that I faced would have been conquered.
Two years ago, when I was a freshman in high school, I dealt with an extremely significant injury. This took place in my tennis tournament in January. In the climax of my match, I jolted my back to the left and soon after felt a sharp, painful shock run through my spine. I knew at that difficult moment I seriously injured my back. I was rushed off the court and my parents made an appointment with an orthopedist (矫形外科医生)for the next morning.
I walked into the office extremely nervous and suffering from excruciating pain. My tennis season for school started in three months and I absolutely needed to build up the strength.
After about twenty minutes of waiting in the office, which felt like an eternity, the doctor walked in to examine my Xrays. With a sorrowful face, the doctor looked into mine and my mother's eyes and said," There is a 50/50 chance that Lucas will be able to participate in this years tennis season. Lucas broke his L5 vertebrae in his lower back. " My heart dropped and I felt a sadness come over me. The doctor said that I would be sitting out of physical activity for two and a half to three months.
Those three months were the longest three months of my life. I was so eager to get back to practices for the season. Every day, I would think about how it was going to be when I was fully healthy. I asked myself, "Am I going to be out of shape Should I even play this year I probably won't have a successful season. "
From that dreadful day on, I decided that I was going to put in the work to be back in top form and have a successful season.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
