Hans is a young German born after 1995, who is a big fan of Chinese culture. He has been learning traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) since 2016. Now he is studying for his master’s degree at Henan University of Chinese Medicine.
As he thought some diseases can’t be treated thoroughly with Western medicine, he decided to research into TCM. Hans came to Central China’s Henan Province in 2015, where a rich TCM culture can be enjoyed because Henan Province is the hometown of Zhang Zhongjing, the medical master of ancient China. After one year of learning the Chinese language, he started to learn Chinese medicine. Hans thought TCM is one of the best-preserved aspects of Chinese culture. He hopes to solve problems and understand Chinese culture deeply by learning TCM.
Without a language barrier, Hans read some of the ancient Chinese medical classics, such as Huangdi Neijing and Yi Jing. He believes different aspects of traditional Chinese culture interact with each other.
Studying TCM also changed Hans’ mind and lifestyle. He used to be addicted to electronic devices and stay up late every night, trapped in this fast-paced but unhealthy daily routine. But now, according to the Yin-Yang theory in TCM, he lives a balanced and peaceful life, practicing good habits such as drinking tea and meditating, as well as reading ancient books.
Hans also uses what he has learned to help his family. Previously, acupuncture tools and Chinese medicine were necessities when he went back to his home in Germany. With acupuncture and Chinese-style massages, various physical disorders of his family have been well-treated. Now, he always provides his family members with some advice about staying fit after he checks their skin or tongues online. Over time, his family gradually began to understand his passion for TCM.
He plans to run a traditional Chinese clinic in China or Germany after graduation, which could serve as a bridge between the two countries and publicize TCM and its culture.
24. What attracted Hans to Henan Province to study TCM
A. Its rich TCM culture. B. Its unique language.
C. Its beautiful scenery. D. Its famous university.
25. What makes it possible for Hans to read ancient Chinese medical classics
A. His family’s support. B. His financial situation.
C. His language learning. D. His previous experience.
26. How has studying TCM affected Hans
A. He has made a big fortune. B. He has known many medical experts.
C. He has set up a clinic in Germany. D. He has developed a healthy lifestyle.
27. Which of the following best describes Hans
A. Ambitious. B. Brave. C. Humorous. D. Good-mannered.
C
There’s been an enormous amount of progress in language-generating AI over the past couple of years. OpenAI’s GPT-3, for example, is a language generator that’s been trained on 570 GB of text, and is able to write convincing essays. Google, of course, is working on language generators too, and its latest one helps you write like a legendary poet.
Google’s new AI tool, Verse by Verse, allows users to compose a poem using “suggestions” from classic American poets. The AI generates these suggestions based on what it’s collected from reading the poets’ oeuvres. That is, the program uses machine-learning algorithms (算法) to identify the language patterns of a particular poet’s work, then applies those to text it generates as the suggestions.
The tool works by allowing users to select from 22 American poets for the suggestions, including legends like Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, and Edgar Allen Poe. After a user has selected up to three poets, they then pick the type of poem they’d like to write. The program offers various poetic forms, and even allows users to select the number of syllables per line.
Users then give the program a first line, and AI generates the rest of the poem. The AI makes suggestions line by line, however, making it more interactive than other top language generator s out there. As far as results, they’re interesting, but not nearly as impressive as GPT-3’s writings.
According to Google engineer Dave Uthus, “The system was trained to have a general understanding of what lines of verse would best follow a previous line of verse. So even if you write on topics not commonly seen in classic poetry, the system will try its best to make lines that are relevant. The widely varying degrees of Verse by Verse output quality show that while good lyrical gems (宝石) may occasionally emerge, further work by the AI team remains to be done.”
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce a new AI tool for writing poetry.
B. To compare different language-generating tools.
C. To discuss the progress of langauge-generators.
D. To analyze the latest essays of OpenAI’s GPT-3.
29. What does the underlined word “oeuvres” mean in paragraph 2
A. Suggestions. B. Works. C. Messages. D. Patterns.
30. What can the Verse by Verse tool do
A. Collect poems for inspiration.
B. Give the program a starting line.
C. Generate different poetic forms.
D. Compose poems as good as GPT-3.
31. What is Dave Uthus’s attitude to the capability of Verse by Verse tool
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Puzzled. D. Confident.
D
A physical checkup often begins with a series of questions: What foods do you eat Do you smoke Getting any exercise A new research suggests another telling indicator could be added to that list: What was your college major The study finds one’s chosen field of college study is a statistically significant predictor of health in midlife.
The researchers find four majors associated with the best midlife health are architecture/engineering, biology/life sciences, business, and — here’s a surprise — communications/journalism. Perhaps chasing after big stories keeps us journalists in shape.
It has long been established that people with more education tend to be healthier. But does one’s major matter To find out, the researchers analyzed data from the nationally representative American Community Survey.
Their sample consisted of 3.7 million United States-born adults between the ages of 45 and 64—the time of life when physical functioning problems start to appear. Participants noted whether they had difficulty walking or climbing stairs, dressing or bathing. A “yes” answer in any of those categories resulted in a grade of relatively poor health.
The researchers focused on the 667,362 participants who earned a bachelor’s degree, but went no further in their education. They noted each person’s college major, which they placed into one of 15 categories. They found substantial differences in health across majors. Two majors are particularly disadvantaged in midlife. The chances of poor health are 1.9 times greater among psychology/social work and law/public policy majors compared to business majors. The researchers argue this is likely due to several factors. Psychology majors tend to suffer from high unemployment and low earnings. Law/public policy majors often enter the field of law enforcement (执行).
The researchers say that they have discovered associations, not proof of causality (因果关系). But they make a convincing case that some majors lead people to live healthier lifestyle s than others. Their findings might even inspire a warning country song: Mammas, don’t let your babies grow up to be psychology majors.
32. What can be learned from the first paragraph
A. Smoking can lead to poor health.
B. Diet is more important than exercise.
C. Physical checkups keep you healthy.
D. College major could be added to a checkup list.
33. How do researchers draw their conclusion
A. By doing face-to-face interviews. B. By following participants’ daily routines.
C. By doing medical examinations. D. By analyzing the representative data.
34. Which major is most likely bad for midlife health according to the researchers
A. Engineering. B. Business. C. Psychology. D. Journalism.
35. What is the best title of the passage
A. Your college major predicts midlife health.
B. Your major can influence your career interests.
C. The annual physical checkup is necessary to life.
D. People with more education tend to be healthier.

67.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。
The sound of glass breaking was immediately recognizable. I had been telling my best friend a silly story and had spun around in the living room when I heard that sound and froze.
When I looked down at the rug(地毯), it was covered with tiny shards(碎片) of sparking red, pink and clear glass. Missi said, “Oh, no, not the vase.”
“Why What did I do ” My face reddened.
“Abby, that glass vase was one of the few items my relatives brought when they came to America,” Missi replied nervously. “If you’d broken anything else in the department, I would have gladly said I did it. But you’re going to have to tell my mom that it was your fault, and she’s going to be really mad.”
I was terrified. I’d destroyed a priceless family heirloom (传家宝). Why did I have to spin around like that
We gathered up the broken pieces. I kept saying that maybe it could be fixed, but Missi said it didn’t look possible. I insisted we keep the pieces. The glass was so delicate, like a colorful light bulb had exploded. Some of it broke even more as we tried to sweep it up carefully.
Missi said her mom would be home by six. My stomach was in knots. Would her mom yell at me or punish me Would she tell me that I couldn’t stay in their department for the weekend Although it was hot then, I was in a cold sweat and couldn’t stop playing the scene over in my mind. The only thing I could think of to say was “I’m sorry”.
A couple of minutes after six, we heard a key turn in the door. Missi’s mom was home.
Right from the start, we could see she was in a good mood.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Oh, thank you! I always hated that ugly vase! You’ve done me a huge favor!” Missi’s mom screamed with delight.

Dear Peter,
I’m sorry to hear that you are addicted to short videos and lack interest in learning. I’m writing to offer you some suggestions.
Short videos do have some benefits. We can relax ourselves, share good times, and cherish memories. However, in my opinion, firstly, you should strike a balance between leisure activities and learning. Only on the premise of self-control can we benefit from modern technologies rather than being slaves of them. Focus on study, and don’t waste too much time on distractions. Secondly, for other forms of relaxation, you can join your friends in playing various sports activities, such as running, cycling or playing basketball.
I hope my suggestions will be helpful for you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
67.范文(满分25分)
Right from the start, we could see she was in a good mood. And she offered to take us out for a cold drink. Before that, I gathered my courage to say, “Aunt, I have something to tell you. I came with Missi, and we were talking and laughing. I spun around and didn’t look beforehand. The glass vase behind the couch fell. It broke into pieces. I am sorry.” I could feel my voice trembling.
“Oh, thank you! I always hated that ugly vase! You’ve done me a huge favor.” Missi’s mom screamed with delight. I couldn’t believe my ears. This was not at all the reaction I had expected. Feeling shocked for a while, I couldn’t stop the tears running down my face. I suddenly realized how considerate Missi’s mom was. She probably was not happy because I had broken the vase. But she saw my uneasiness and tried to make me feel at ease. She taught me a lesson about consideration which I would always remember.
