To adapt to climate change, some flowers are darkening their color to protect themselves from the suns radiation, new research shows.
The study suggests that over the past 75 years, the ultraviolet (UV) pigments (紫外线色素) in flowers have increased in response to rising temperatures and the thinning ozone layer (臭氧层). The flowers won’t look any different to humans, but insects consider the higher levels of UV pigments as a darker color, which could be confusing when they try to find out colorful flowers to land on.
The UV-absorbing pigments in flowers work like sunscreen and protect sensitive cells from harmful radiation, Matthew Koski, a plant ecologist at Clemson University, says. He and his team hoped to determine if changes in pigments were a result of environmental change-and if so, what are the plants responding to The team collected dried, pressed plants across North America, Australia and Europe. In total, they studied 1, 238 samples from 42 different species dating back to 1941. Then, using a UV-sensitive camera, they photographed flower petals from each species. Next, they paired the photographs with the historic local temperature and ozone level data from the time the plant was picked to see how the pigment level changed over time.
The researchers found that the changes in pigments differ between species, a result of the flowers structure. Flowers with open, exposed pollen had more UV-absorbing pigments when ozone levels were low and radiation was high. But flowers with pollen surrounded by the petal responded to temperatures, not ozone levels.
As climate change continues to intensify, these changes in flowers color can affect plant-insect interactions. When the whole flowers get darker, insects might miss the flowers entirely. “This has a negative influence on plant reproduction,” Koski says.
8. What is the cause of flowers color changing according to the research
A. The impact of the climate crisis. B. The loss of natural habitats.
C. The harm of nuclear radiation. D. The thickening of the ozone layer.
9. How did Koski’s team get their findings
A. By collecting photographs of flowers from different species.
B. By analyzing how levels of UV pigments change over time.
C. By collecting abundant samples from various species.
D. By analyzing historic local temperature and ozone level data.
10. What can we learn about the change in pigments
A. It exists in flowers with exposed pollen only. B. It responds to temperatures and sea levels.
C. It remains the same regardless of species. D. It varies depending on the flowers structure.
11. What is Koski’s attitude toward the change in flowers color
A. Concerned. B. Indifferent. C. Unclear. D. Optimistic.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为说明文，最新研究表明，为了适应气候变化，一些花的颜色正在变深。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The study suggests that over the past 75 years, the ultraviolet (UV) pigments (紫外线色素) in flowers have increased in response to rising temperatures and the thinning ozone layer (臭氧层).(研究表明，在过去的75年里，由于气温上升和臭氧层变薄，花朵中的紫外线色素增加了)”可知，花朵中的紫外线（UV）色素随着温度升高和臭氧层变薄而增加，这是花朵应对气候变化的策略，故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Next, they paired the photographs with the historic local temperature and ozone level data from the time the plant was picked to see how the pigment level changed over time.(接下来，他们将这些照片与采摘植物时当地的历史温度和臭氧水平数据配对，看看色素水平是如何随时间变化的)”可知，科斯基的团队通过分析紫外线色素水平随时间的变化得到他们的发现。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The researchers found that the changes in pigments differ between species, a result of the flowers structure.(研究人员发现，由于花的结构不同，不同物种的色素变化也不同)”可知，色素沉着的变化因花的结构而异，故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“When the whole flowers get darker, insects might miss the flowers entirely. “This has a negative influence on plant reproduction,” Koski says.(当整个花朵变暗时，昆虫可能会完全错过花朵。“这对植物繁殖有负面影响，”科斯基说)”可知，当整朵花变暗时，昆虫可能会完全错过花朵，这对植物的繁衍有消极的影响，说明Koski对此现象是担忧的，故选A。
D

Two years ago, homeless Minnie was adopted by a single rich woman. Life did get a bit easier ever since she was taken in by her foster mom, but the little girl was still not happy. How she wished she could have a father!
One morning in class, Minnie’s teacher, Mr Thompson, made a surprising announcement, making Minnie frown (皱眉) again.
“Kids, tomorrow is Father’s Day! And at school, we’re all celebrating it by having breakfast with Dads! All of you get to bring your dads or anyone you look up to as your dad to school tomorrow. We’ll all sit in one circle, share funny stories, and have breakfast together.”
“What a terrible idea!” Minnie muttered (咕哝) under her breath.
For the rest of the day, most kids were talking up their fathers: businessmen, policemen, engineers, and even an actor. Everybody had somebody who was a father figure, except for Minnie.
After school, Mr Thompson spotted the sad little girl sitting alone by the school gate.
“Are you all right, Minnie ” Mr Thompson asked. Suddenly, the child hugged his legs and cried. Minnie told her trouble to her teacher and Mr Thompson comforted her.
After getting home that evening, Mr Thompson couldn’t shake off the sadness he had seen on Minnie’s face. Suddenly, he had an idea. He opened his laptop, and as the keys on the keyboard clattered, Mr Thompson began to smile.
He was putting out a post on social media, sharing Minnie’s story and asking for a dad to volunteer for Minnie and show up to school the next day as her father figure. Thirty minutes later, his phone buzzed.
And it buzzed again and again. By the time the teacher checked his phone, he was shocked to see the number flashing across the screen.
“50 volunteers Am I reading this right ” Mr Thompson gasped. He put on his glasses and read through all the responses on his post. He was so surprised. These 50 volunteers all wanted to come and help Minnie.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文：
The next day, Minnie went to school sadly, not knowing the surprise was waiting for her. She walked along the hallways with her eyes glued to the floor, failing to notice the line of adult men outside her class door. Mr Thompson said her name last after the other kids had introduced their dads to the class. Just as Minnie was about to say that she had no one, Mr Thompson held her shoulders and said, “Minnie, I know you wanted to bring a father figure, and you thought there wasn’t one. You are right about that, my dear. There isn’t one father figure who has shown up for you; there are 50!”
Minnie was confused at first, but when she saw those “dads”, she was obviously happy. “You’ve really come for me ” she clapped in excitement. “Certainly, Minnie! Mr Thompson told us all about you, and we wouldn’t miss it for the world!” one of the men said gently. The volunteers joined the other dads and kids for the day, taking part in every game. They had a happy and memorable day. After a thoroughly entertaining day, Minnie was thankful to those kind “dads” and they all promised that they would come to meet Minnie whenever she needed them.
【解析】

Get up at 6 a.m., arrive at the hospital one hour earlier to help patients check in, and accompany patients during consultations... In recent years, the patient escort has emerged as a new occupation, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time”. 26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.
September 4, 2022 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian. On this day, Zhang Tian saw a video about patient escorts on a short video platform. The daily routine of patient escorts shown in the video fascinated her and inspired her to take this on as a business. She browsed through many platforms and searched for information and found there indeed exists a certain demand for patient escorts, especially for the elderly, children and pregnant women. Since she had never engaged in this kind of work before, she spent two days in major hospitals in Wuhan, in order to familiarize herself with all the departments on different floors, as well as the processes of medical consultations and preparations for surgery.
After the preparations, Zhang Tian posted a video of self-introduction on major social media sites, talking about the help and services a patient escort provides, as well as some tips for a quick and convenient medical consultation. At first, she was a little worried that her video would go unnoticed. However, after she uploaded the video, it got over 100 likes and she received her first offer as a patient escort.
The memory of her first task is still vivid in her mind. She received a phone call on September 9 from a man whose father was seriously ill and might need surgery. He wanted Zhang Tian to accompany his father through his consultation and treatment. Zhang Tian made all the preparations before meeting her first client and did a very good job despite her nervousness.
“Later, the family expressed their gratitude to me over and over again, which warmed my heart and gave me a sense of achievement,” Zhang Tian said.

To adapt to climate change, some flowers are darkening their color to protect themselves from the suns radiation, new research shows.
The study suggests that over the past 75 years, the ultraviolet (UV) pigments (紫外线色素) in flowers have increased in response to rising temperatures and the thinning ozone layer (臭氧层). The flowers won’t look any different to humans, but insects consider the higher levels of UV pigments as a darker color, which could be confusing when they try to find out colorful flowers to land on.
The UV-absorbing pigments in flowers work like sunscreen and protect sensitive cells from harmful radiation, Matthew Koski, a plant ecologist at Clemson University, says. He and his team hoped to determine if changes in pigments were a result of environmental change-and if so, what are the plants responding to The team collected dried, pressed plants across North America, Australia and Europe. In total, they studied 1, 238 samples from 42 different species dating back to 1941. Then, using a UV-sensitive camera, they photographed flower petals from each species. Next, they paired the photographs with the historic local temperature and ozone level data from the time the plant was picked to see how the pigment level changed over time.
The researchers found that the changes in pigments differ between species a result of the flowers structure. Flowers with open, exposed pollen had more UV-absorbing pigments when ozone levels were low and radiation was high. But flowers with pollen surrounded by the petal responded to temperatures, not ozone levels.
As climate change continues to intensify, these changes in flowers color can affect plant-insect interactions. When the whole flowers get darker, insects might miss the flowers entirely. “This has a negative influence on plant reproduction,” Koski says.
8. What is the cause of flowers color changing according to the research
A. The impact of the climate crisis. B. The loss of natural habitats.
C. The harm of nuclear radiation. D. The thickening of the ozone layer.
9. How did Koski’s team get their findings
A. By collecting photographs of flowers from different species.
B. By analyzing how levels of UV pigments change over time.
C. By collecting abundant samples from various species.
D. By analyzing historic local temperature and ozone level data.
10. What can we learn about the change in pigments
A. It exists in flowers with exposed pollen only. B. It responds to temperatures and sea levels.
C. It remains the same regardless of species. D. It varies depending on the flowers structure.
11. What is Koski’s attitude toward the change in flowers color
A. Concerned. B. Indifferent. C. Unclear. D. Optimistic.
D
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the way we interact with technology. One of the most exciting developments in AI is ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence language model. ChatGPT has the potential to innovate the way we communicate and process information, and its capabilities are only beginning to be understood.
One of the most impressive features of ChatGPT is its ability to learn from vast amounts of text data. This allows it to understand and provide responses to a wide range of topics and questions, from science and technology to entertainment and sports. It is capable of dealing with texts in a variety of natural languages including English, Spanish and Chinese. It is not limited to a specific set of data or rules, but rather has the capacity to learn and develop gradually based on the input it receives.
Moreover, ChatGPT has been applied in diverse settings, from chatbots and virtual assistants to language translation and content generation. For example, ChatGPT has been used to generate articles, poems, and even song lyrics. It has also been used in healthcare to assist with diagnosing and treating patients.
Despite its many benefits, ChatGPT is not perfect. Like all machine learning models, it can sometimes make mistakes or generate responses that are inappropriate or offensive. So users should be cautious to use it.
While ChatGPT is still a relatively new technology, its capabilities are already being explored in different settings. As the technology continues to develop, it is important for developers and users to be aware of its limitations and use it responsibly. If used wisely, ChatGPT could be a major step forward in the development of artificial intelligence and the way we interact with technology.
12. What can we know about ChatGPT from paragraph 2
A. It provides information only from its input.
B. It has been applied to all kinds of fields.
C. It has limitations in a specific set of data or rules.
D. It can be used to process texts in different languages.
13. Why does the author mention articles, poems, and even song lyrics in paragraph 3
A. To explain a rule. B. To prove a point.
C. To make a prediction. D. To clarify a misunderstanding.
14. What can we learn from the text

Two years ago, homeless Minnie was adopted by a single rich woman. Life did get a bit easier ever since she was taken in by her foster mom, but the little girl was still not happy. How she wished she could have a father!
One morning in class, Minnie’s teacher, Mr Thompson, made a surprising announcement, making Minnie frown (皱眉) again.
“Kids, tomorrow is Father’s Day! And at school, we’re all celebrating it by having breakfast with Dads! All of you get to bring your dads or anyone you look up to as your dad to school tomorrow. We’ll all sit in one circle, share funny stories, and have breakfast together.”
“What a terrible idea!” Minnie muttered (咕哝) under her breath.
For the rest of the day, most kids were talking up their fathers: businessmen, policemen, engineers, and even an actor. Everybody had somebody who was a father figure, except for Minnie.
After school, Mr Thompson spotted the sad little girl sitting alone by the school gate.
“Are you all right, Minnie ” Mr Thompson asked. Suddenly, the child hugged his legs and cried. Minnie told her trouble to her teacher and Mr Thompson comforted her.
After getting home that evening, Mr Thompson couldn’t shake off the sadness he had seen on Minnie’s face. Suddenly, he had an idea. He opened his laptop, and as the keys on the keyboard clattered, Mr Thompson began to smile.
He was putting out a post on social media, sharing Minnie’s story and asking for a dad to volunteer for Minnie and show up to school the next day as her father figure. Thirty minutes later, his phone buzzed.
And it buzzed again and again. By the time the teacher checked his phone, he was shocked to see the number flashing across the screen.
“50 volunteers Am I reading this right ” Mr Thompson gasped. He put on his glasses and read through all the responses on his post. He was so surprised. These 50 volunteers all wanted to come and help Minnie.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

The next day, Minnie went to school sadly, not knowing the surprise was waiting for her.
