When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌) Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
"Ecological design" is the name John gives to what he does. "Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor," he says. "You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair."
24．What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs
A．He enjoyed being alone. B．He longed to be a doctor.
C．He was fond of traveling. D．He had an inquiring mind.
25．Why did John put the sludge into the tanks
A．To feed the animals. B．To protect the plants.
C．To build an ecosystem. D．To test the eco-machine.
26．What is the author's purpose in mentioning Fuzhou
A．To review John's research plans.
B．To compare John's different jobs.
C．To show an application of John's idea.
D．To remove doubts about John's invention.
27．What is the basis for John's work
A．Life on Earth is diverse.
B．Nature can repair itself.
C．Organisms need water to survive.
D．Most tiny creatures live in groups.

Alan Mathison Turing was born in England in 1912. Like many talents who go on to great things, Turing showed his unbelievable intelligence from a very young age. Actually, by the time he was halfway through primary school, Turing's teachers had already realized he was a mathematical genius. He could do complex calculating in his head even though he had never been taught about it.
Fortunately, Turing was the opposite of Hawking, and he absolutely loved school. Proof of this is the extreme lengths he would go just to get to class. For example, on one occasion when there was a train strike, Turing even cycled 60 miles to attend. Now that's devotion!
However, in spite of Turin's scholarly attitude and his obvious genius, his teachers had their concerns about his future. This was because well-known schools in Britain like the ones Turing attended regarded the Classics, such as Latin and Greek as the most important, not subjects like maths and science. Turing's proud teachers even wrote letters to his parents asking them to persuade the young man to focus more on the Classics. Imagine how different the world might be if the young Turing had listened to his teachers! Thankfully, his love for all things scientific and mathematical meant there was no chance of that.
After finishing secondary school, Turing completed a degree in mathematics at King's College Cambridge, and then obtained his PhD from Princeton University in the USA. It was during these university years that he invented the Turing Machine, which is considered by many people to be the earliest version of a computer processing unit. It sounds unbelievable that anybody could have invented something which was similar to a computer in 1936. But that just shows how far ahead of his time Alan Turing was, even when he was still a young man.
28．What can be inferred about Turing according to paragraphs 1-2
A．He maintained interest in the Classics.
B．He rejected attending famous schools.
C．He showed a strong desire for schooling.
D．He ignored parents' advice on course selection.
29．What does the writer think of the Turing Machine
A．He argues it's still limited in many functions.
B．He thinks it's influential in computer history.
C．He doubts if it is truly invented by a young man.
D．He considers the construction of such machines impossible.
30．What is the author's main purpose in writing this passage
A．To indicate the link between genius and success.
B．To illustrate the invention of the Turing Machine.
C．To stress the impact of teachers' guidance on Turing's life.
D．To introduce Turing's genius, scholarly attitude and achievement.
31．What can we learn from Turing's story
A．Satisfied with little, yet wishing for more.
B．Chances favor the minds that are prepared.
C．Nothing great was ever achieved without passion.
D．Ordinary people hope, while talented people create.

ChatGPT, designed by OpenAI to carry on conversations just like humans, has become a viral excitement. The AI-powered tool went from zero to a million users in just five days! It is capable of providing in-depth answers to user questions, which has even drawn the attention of distinguished technology companies.
The intelligent robot understands what the user says or types and then responds in a way that makes sense. Its vast body of knowledge has been gathered from the internet and archived books, making ChatGPT a useful tool for researching almost any topic.
"We have a lot of information on the internet, but you normally have to Google it, then read it and then do something with it," says Ricardo, chief science officer and co-founder of AI company Erudit. "Now you'll have this resource that can process the whole internet and all of the information it contains for you to answer your question."
ChatGPT cannot think on its own. It depends on the information that it has been trained on. As a consequence, the AI tool works well for things that have accurate data available. However, when unsure, ChatGPT can get creative and flow out incorrect responses. OpenAI warns users to check the information no matter how logical it sounds. Also, ChatGPT has only been trained with information till 2021. Hence, it cannot be relied upon for anything that happened after that.
Experts believe ChatGPT has limitless potential to solve real-world problems. It can translate long texts into different languages, create content on almost any topic, and even summarize books.
Nevertheless, ChatGPT has received mixed reactions from educators. Some believe it could serve as a valuable tool to help build literacy skills in the classroom and could also be used to teach students difficult science or math concepts. But other educators, who fear this will prevent them from building critical thinking and problem-solving skills, think ChatGPT will encourage students to cheat. Consequently, many districts are starting to cease using it in schools.
32．What is the unique feature of ChatGPT
A．It has artificial intelligence.
B．It can answer users' questions.
C．It has the largest number of users.
D．It can join in meaningful conversations.
33．What makes ChatGPT helpful to research various topics
A．Its accurate information.
B．Its ability to process information.
C．Its vast body of questions.
D．Its availability of up-to-date data.
34．Why do ChatGPT users have to be cautious when using it
A．ChatGPT lacks creativity.
B．ChatGPT is unable to think itself.
C．ChatGPT is not properly trained.
D．ChatGPT offers illogical information.
35．What is the author's attitude towards ChatGPT
A．Objective. B．Favorable. C．Indifferent. D．Disapproving.
四、第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Research from Harvard University's Wyss Institute have made "robotic shorts" that can help people use less energy when they walk or run.
36． A motor on the user's back pulls cables connected to the laps.
In the past, such devices have focused only on helping people walk or run, but not both, since walking and running use different hip(臀部) movements. But a computer on the shorts can tell which way the user is moving, 37．
The researchers found that the main benefit of the shorts was reducing the energy people needed to walk or run. In tests, the energy needed for walking was reduced by 9.3 percent. 38． Less energy was needed both on flat ground and on hills.
The researchers said that while the shorts weigh about 5 kilograms, moving with them makes users feel lighter. The tests showed that a person walking with the device would feel 4 kilograms lighter, 39．
The team now also wants to make the device itself 40 percent lighter. They hope the shorts can help people in danger of injury at work and those who want to improve their physical performance, 40．
Conor Walsh, who helped lead the study, says he hopes such devices will be available to everyone in the future.
A. as well as those with disabilities.
B. Are you eager to possess such kind of shorts
C. and someone running would feel 5.7 kilograms lighter.
D. For running, people needed about 4 percent less energy.
E. but those excellent athletes are also able to benefit from running.

【解析】【听力原文】According to the survey of 1, 896 seniors in the United Kingdom, more than one in five would have a conversation with no more than three people over the span of an entire week! That translated to nearly 2. 6 million elderly folks who didn't enjoy regular human contact on a daily basis. Perhaps the most alarming is that researchers said an alarming 225,000 individuals would go a week without talking to anyone face-to-face.
The survey also revealed that over half of seniors were willing to take early retirement. They said they knew they could be taken good care of if they took their children's advice, moving into the nursing homes. But they were unable to accept this idea. They were so scared of leaving their only homes they had lived for most of their lives.
Meanwhile, another survey of 2, 000 people aged 16-45 in the UK showed that 55% of younger folks admitted to worrying about being lonely in their elder years. With that in mind, two-thirds of those people said they wanted to do something to help boost the confidence of a lonely senior, but 37% worried that such a gesture wouldn't be well-received. Another 30% felt too shy to spark up a conversation with seniors. 27% admitted they were not sure how to help, and a quarter said they were simply too busy themselves.

【知识点】独白
【解析】【听力原文】According to the survey of 1, 896 seniors in the United Kingdom, more than one in five would have a conversation with no more than three people over the span of an entire week! That translated to nearly 2. 6 million elderly folks who didn't enjoy regular human contact on a daily basis. Perhaps the most alarming is that researchers said an alarming 225,000 individuals would go a week without talking to anyone face-to-face.
The survey also revealed that over half of seniors were willing to take early retirement. They said they knew they could be taken good care of if they took their children's advice, moving into the nursing homes. But they were unable to accept this idea. They were so scared of leaving their only homes they had lived for most of their lives.
Meanwhile, another survey of 2, 000 people aged 16-45 in the UK showed that 55% of younger folks admitted to worrying about being lonely in their elder years. With that in mind, two-thirds of those people said they wanted to do something to help boost the confidence of a lonely senior, but 37% worried that such a gesture wouldn't be well-received. Another 30% felt too shy to spark up a conversation with seniors. 27% admitted they were not sure how to help, and a quarter said they were simply too busy themselves.

Female journalists who changed the world
Helen Thomas
Helen was a White House reporter who had a front row scat of history as she interviewed ten America presidents across her career. She was praised for her cruel drive, with one White House press secretary describing her questioning as torture (拷问). Her refusal to hide her strong opinions, even when asking questions to a president, made her one of the best-known journalists in Washington in the field.
Marie Colvin
The passionate and award-winning American journalist Marie Colvin worked as a foreign reporter at The Sunday Times from 1985 until she died in February 2012, while covering Siege of Homs(霍姆斯的围攻) in Syria. Marie crossed into Syria on the back of a motorcycle, ignoring the Syrian government's attempt to prevent foreign journalists from entering the country.
Mary Garber
In 1946, sports journalism was a man's job where female sports writers weren't allowed to enter press boxes. Mary Gaber changed that by paving the way for female sports writers.
She first covered high school sports and then reported on college athletics. In June 2005, she became the first woman to receive the Associated Press Sports Editor's Red Smith Award, presented annually since 1981 for major contributions to sports journalism.
Ann Leslie
Few reporters have filed stories from more than 70 countries, but British journalist Ann Leslie is considered a unique force in journalism. Because the 73-year old woman has witnessed and reported on some of the most significant events of the late 20th century. She was there when the Berlin Wall came down, and she lost her shoes in the crush waiting for Nelson Mandela's release.

【点评】考查阅读理解，包含细节理解题、推理判断题，是一篇人物类阅读，注意先略读文章，掌握文章大意，再分析题干及选项，到文中找到相关内容并进行理解。
21．考查细节理解。根据 Helen Thomas 部分中的"Her refusal to hide her strong opinions, even when asking questions to a president, made her one of the best-known journalists in Washington and a rule in her field"她拒绝隐藏自己强烈的观点，甚至在向总统提问时也不例外，这使她成为华盛顿最知名的记者之一，并成为她所在领域的一条规则。可知，海伦不隐藏自己的观点，是华盛顿最有名的记者之一。故选A。
22．考查推理判断。根据 Marie Colvin 部分中的"Marie crossed into Syria on the back of a motorcycle, ignoring the Syrian government's attempt to prevent foreign journalists from entering the country"玛利不顾叙利亚政府阻止外国记者进入该国的企图，骑着一辆摩托车进入叙利亚。可知，玛利不管叙利亚政府的阻止，骑着一辆摩托车进入叙利亚。可推知，玛利非常勇敢。故选A。
23．考查细节理解。根据 Mary Garber 部分中的"In 1946, sports journalism was a man's job where female sports writers weren't allowed to enter press boxes. Mary Garber changed that by paving the way for female sports writers. She first covered high school sports and then reported on college athletics"1946年，体育新闻还是男性的工作，女性体育记者不允许进入记者席。Mary Garber为女性体育记者铺平了道路，从而改变了这种状况。她首先报道了高中体育，然后报道了大学体育。可知，Mary Garber打开了女体育记者的大门。故选C。

When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌) Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
"Ecological design" is the name John gives to what he does. "Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor," he says. "You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair."
24．What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs
A．He enjoyed being alone. B．He longed to be a doctor.
C．He was fond of traveling. D．He had an inquiring mind.
25．Why did John put the sludge into the tanks
A．To feed the animals. B．To protect the plants.
C．To build an ecosystem. D．To test the eco-machine.
26．What is the author's purpose in mentioning Fuzhou
A．To review John's research plans.
B．To compare John's different jobs.
C．To show an application of John's idea.
D．To remove doubts about John's invention.
27．What is the basis for John's work
A．Life on Earth is diverse.
B．Nature can repair itself.
C．Organisms need water to survive.
D．Most tiny creatures live in groups.

Alan Mathison Turing was born in England in 1912. Like many talents who go on to great things, Turing showed his unbelievable intelligence from a very young age. Actually, by the time he was halfway through primary school, Turing's teachers had already realized he was a mathematical genius. He could do complex calculating in his head even though he had never been taught about it.
Fortunately, Turing was the opposite of Hawking, and he absolutely loved school. Proof of this is the extreme lengths he would go just to get to class. For example, on one occasion when there was a train strike, Turing even cycled 60 miles to attend. Now that's devotion!
However, in spite of Turin's scholarly attitude and his obvious genius, his teachers had their concerns about his future. This was because well-known schools in Britain like the ones Turing attended regarded the Classics, such as Latin and Greek as the most important, not subjects like maths and science. Turing's proud teachers even wrote letters to his parents asking them to persuade the young man to focus more on the Classics. Imagine how different the world might be if the young Turing had listened to his teachers! Thankfully, his love for all things scientific and mathematical meant there was no chance of that.
After finishing secondary school, Turing completed a degree in mathematics at King's College Cambridge, and then obtained his PhD from Princeton University in the USA. It was during these university years that he invented the Turing Machine, which is considered by many people to be the earliest version of a computer processing unit. It sounds unbelievable that anybody could have invented something which was similar to a computer in 1936. But that just shows how far ahead of his time Alan Turing was, even when he was still a young man.
28．What can be inferred about Turing according to paragraphs 1-2
A．He maintained interest in the Classics.
B．He rejected attending famous schools.
C．He showed a strong desire for schooling.
D．He ignored parents' advice on course selection.
29．What does the writer think of the Turing Machine
A．He argues it's still limited in many functions.
B．He thinks it's influential in computer history.
C．He doubts if it is truly invented by a young man.
D．He considers the construction of such machines impossible.
30．What is the author's main purpose in writing this passage
A．To indicate the link between genius and success.
B．To illustrate the invention of the Turing Machine.
C．To stress the impact of teachers' guidance on Turing's life.
D．To introduce Turing's genius, scholarly attitude and achievement.
31．What can we learn from Turing's story
A．Satisfied with little, yet wishing for more.
B．Chances favor the minds that are prepared.
C．Nothing great was ever achieved without passion.
D．Ordinary people hope, while talented people create.
【答案】28．C
29．B
