A badly-injured fox spent two weeks recovering in a garden tent after attaching itself to a family in Glasgow, Scotland．
Liz Wink said the fox followed her so n home before they noticed a bad wound on its side．“My son Andrew came running in and said ‘there’s a fox following me’,” Wink said．“We opened the door and it was just standing there.”
“I have three dogs and they were barking（吠叫）but it was still trying to come in —its nose was going through the letterbox．We noticed the wound．We put food in the back garden and it made the back garden its home．There was also a chair in the back.” The fox was fed food including cooked chicken．“We also bought a tent, with an old quit cover in it.”
Wink said antibiotics（抗生素）were given after contacting a vet, and the fox finally left their garden with the wound healed after a fortnight．“It was here day and night,” Wink,53, said．“My daughter Lucy is good with animals and would pat it．It was so quiet.”
“Clearly, when foxes are injured they take a thing called a rescue nap（抢救性小睡）and I think that’s what it has done with us,” Wink said．“They nap for however long it takes , and it completely healed．Then it was up and away and we never saw that fox again．We still have foxes but that one was so friendly, the other ones do run away．Maybe it will come back with babies one day.”
Although it’s great that the fox appeared to make a full recovery, we wouldn’t advise members of the public to attempt to treat sick or injured wild animals themselves．If people find a wounded wild animal in trouble, they should call animal helpline．
26．Why did the fox follow the son Andrew to his home

C．To turned to the family for help． D．To cure its injured back．
27．What can we learn about the family from paragraph 3

C．They thought the fox was noisy． D．They put the fox into the letterbox．
28．What did the fox do for its own recovery
A It rested for as long as it would take． B．It went for a vet to have a check-up．
C．It killed animals nearby for food． D．It went into forests to heal itself．
29．What does the author suggest people do to help injured wild animals
A．Treat them under the guidance of vets．
B．Search the wild and look for more of them．
C Contact animal experts for advice and information．
D．Learn more about them．and offer proper treatment．

ChatGPT is a prototype（原型）dialogue-based AI chatbot（聊天 机 器人 ）which can understand natural human language and creating impressively detailed human-like written text．The new AI was created by OpenAI, a research center founded by Elon Musk．Musk co-founded the new company with other bosses．The research centre aims to advance digital intelligence in a way that benefits humans．
ChatGPT works by being trained on a large amount of text from the Internet using AI and machine learning．The system is designed to provide information and answer questions through a traditional interface（界面）．
Early users have described the technology as a tool to replace to Google because it can provide descriptions, answers, and solutions to different kinds of questions．Real-world applications could include producing content for websites, answering customer questions, providing recommendations（推荐）, and creating automated（自动化的）chatbots．OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the system is “an early model of what’s possible.” He hopes to produce helpful assistants that talk to users, answer questions, and give advice．In the future, these assistants could periorm tasks for users and even discover new knowledge．
There has been prediction that jobs dependent on content production, such as playwrights, protessors, programmers, and journalists, could be obsolete because of ChatGPT．However, at its current stage, the chatbot lacks slight differences, critical thinking skills, and ethical（道德的）decision-making ability which are necessary for successful journalism．In addition, its knowledge base ends in 2021, which means that some questions and searches are useless now．ChatGPT can also provide incorrect or misleading answers, because it is short of a source of truth in the data used to train the model．
In short, ChatGPT is a powerful AI chatbot and it may be used in various industries, but it is still in its early stages and has limitations．As AI technology continues to evolve, we can expect more advanced chatbots like ChatGPT in the future．
31．What is the purpose of OpenAI
A．To produce content for giving advice．
B．To train ChatGPT as a super computer．
C．To use ChatGPT as a tool to replace Google．
D．To improve digital intelligence that can benefit humans．
32．How does ChatGPT work according to the text
A．By answering questions for websites．
B．By being trained on a large amount of text．
C．By providing information and giving advice．
D．By producing detailed human-like written text．
33．Which of the following statements of future AI assistants will Sam Altman agree on
A．They will only answer questions and give advice．
B．They will replace jobs dependent on content production．
C．They will have slight differences and critical thinking skills．
D．They will perform tasks for users and discover new knowledge．
34．What does the underlined word “obsolete” mean in paragraph 4
A．Curious． B．Responsible． C．Outdated． D．Humorous．
35．Where is the text probably taken from
A．A health article． B．A science fiction．
C．A nature magazine． D．A science website．

It takes a lot of courage to make a painting or drawing．All your skills, or lack thereof．are plain to see and open to praise or criticism．It’s hard and takes persistent courage to keep going when things are not going your way．
Everyone knows that it is a good thing to practice drawing and painting every day． 36 Daily drawing can easily become a repeated and boring activity that needs great effort it, it simply occupies the busy life without any reflection or sense of purpose．If you can practice frequently with an air of relaxation and small achievable goal, you will find it more rewarding and enjoyable．
If you produce frequent small-scale paintings, you will learn much faster． 37 Of course, when you are producing so much work, the odd failure doesn’t matter nearly as much either．Alongside development o ping your technical skills I would encourage you to study as much art as you can．Learn as much as you can about the paintings and artists that inspire you． 38
It is likely that the paintings which inspire you will have qualities that you feel are lacking from your own． 39 All these make a difference to leading you forwards．This journey is never-ending and a large part of what makes it all so richly interesting．
40 This helps in several ways: firstly you’ll know better when the work is finished, secondly it helps you keep clarity of purpose and thirdly, you can judge．its success against your original aim．Of course, wonderful and unexpected things will occur as you paint, but these can throw you off course too．Thus do keep your focus as you go．
A．However, how many of us actually do it
B．Produce works that are in line with people’s taste．
C．It’s a good idea to start by defining a clear achievable goal．
D．In this way, you clearly know what you like and what you don’t．
E．Imagine how much more you can learn from ten paintings than one．
F．Drawing has many benefits and can improve our lives in a variety of ways．
G．Besides, while learning, you will naturally seek out new artists and artworks．

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段结尾，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My fear of performing started early on in my life．I was a shy child who preferred staying in the background and avoiding attention．However, as I grew older, I realized that I had a hidden desire to express myself creatively and share my talents with others．This desire led me to find out various art forms, including music, dance, and theater．
But I used to struggle with stage fright．Whenever I was asked to perform in front of others, I would feel a sense of dread（惧怕）and anxiety, and my body would tense up．I would worry about making mistakes, forgetting my lines, or embarrassing（使尴尬、难堪）myself in front of others．
I remember very well my first audition（试演）for a school play．The play was a musical adaptation（改编）of a classic fairy tale, and I was excited about the chance to be a part of it．However, as the audition day approached, my excitement turned into anxiety．I started to doubt myself, and I started to question whether I was ready to take on such a demanding（要求高的）role．Despite my doubts, I decided to go through with the audition, hoping to overcome my fear and prove to myself that I could perform．
The day of the audition arrived, and I stood nervously in front of the audiences．I could feel my heart racing and my palms sweating as I prepared to sing my song and deliver my lines．
However, as I started to perform, something excellent and unusual happened．I fully put myself in the role I was playing and felt a sense of freedom and joy that I had never experienced before．I began to lose myself in the moment, and didn’t feel nervous and anxious．When the audition was over, I was surprised to learn I had been chosen to play a leading role．I was both excited and worried at the same time, but I knew I had to push through my fear and give it my all．
注意：
1．续写词数应为90左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Since then, performing became an important part of my life．

Dear Bob,
I understand that you are facing some difficulties in communicating in Chinese and are worried about making mistakes．Don’ t worry, I’ m here to offer you some advice．
Firstly, don’t b e afraid to speak up．It’ s important to practice speaking as much as possible, even if you make mistakes．Secondly, try to slow down your speech．Take your time to pronounce each word clearly and correctly. Lastly, don’t ignore the power of body language．This can make it easier for others to understand you．
Remember, learning a new language takes time and practice．Don’ t be too hard on yourself and keep pushing forward．I believe you will improve with time．
Best regards,
LiHua
