During the school year, Kacer works about 10 hours a week, juggling his job with school and cheerleading practice. But he hopes to pick up more shifts (轮班) this summer to earn extra spending money and to help his family save for his college tuition.
Across the country, lawmakers are supprting new legislation (立法) that would allow teens like Kacer to do just that — by loosening some child labor protections at the state level. Ohio and other states, for example, have proposed bills that would permit teens — with their parents’ permission — to work later at night, even on school days. In some states, such as Iowa and Minnesota, legislation would allow teens to take jobs in a wider range of industries, including construction.
As businesses started reopening after the global crisis, many adults left low-wage jobs for better-paying ones. “Adult workers no longer want this crazy low-wage service job that has a ludicrous (荒唐的) schedule, few benefits, and rude customers,” Alicia Sasser Modestino, a labor expert who studies the youth workforce, told reporters, “so employers suddenly turned to youth.”
Some experts say there are benefits to increasing work opportunities for young people. For starters, many teens must work in order to help their families make ends meet. A recent study also found that students with part-time jobs are more likely to earn higher wages in the future compared with classmates who don’t work. Plus, experts add, working teens are likely to spend more, which helps the economy. In addition, having a job instills responsibility in teens and could even lead to an eventual career.
But critics of changing the laws worry that doing so could put kids in danger. They say teens working later at night raises safety concerns, such as how they will get home. And, they add, some jobs that lawmakers want to open to teens could put young people at risk of injury or death. Charlie Wishman, president of the Iowa Federation of Labor, is against his state’s bill that would allow some teens to work in manufacturing (制造业) and meatpacking facilities. “Child labor should be limited and safe,” he told reporters. “Let kids be kids. There are plenty of job opportunities right now for kids to gain experience and learn responsibility without putting them in danger.” In addition, some parents and educators worry that if teens devote more time to work, their education will suffer. Research shows that working more than 20 hours a week during the school year can tire young people out and leave less time for studying.
While states continue to debate changing their child labor laws, there is one thing that many people agree on: The country’s labor shortage, they say, could be largely solved if more employers offered better pay and benefits to adults.
4．What is the article mainly about
A．Whether Kacer should pick up more shifts this summer.
B．How to solve labor shortage in manufacturing industry.
C．Whether youth should be given more job opportunities.
D．Why people disagree with changing the child labor laws.
5．Why do employers hire more teenagers after the global crisis
A．Because teenagers need to work to save money for further study.
B．Because economic recovery creates new jobs suitable for teenagers.
C．Because young employees can better cope with rude customers.
D．Because adults turn to higher-paying jobs with better environment.
6．Which statement is NOT TRUE according to Paragraph 4
A．Teens without work may earn less than their peers in the future.
B．Working teens contribute to economic growth by saving wages.
C．Young people can help support their families through working.
D．Teenagers can learn to be responsible from working experience.
7．Which harmful effect of allowing teenagers to work more is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 5
A．Heavy work will leave students little time to explore interests.
B．Going home late after work will pose a risk to kids’ safety.
C．Students will gain working experience at the cost of study.
D．Teenagers can get injured in dangerous work environment.
C
Type (打字) in “A cat wants to go to space” and ask ChatGPT to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you will get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.
Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT has taken the Internet by storm, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022. People can ask the robot to write stories and emails, create recipes (食谱), translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in Internet text to help users get human-like text.”
Compared with Siri or other chat robots , ChatGPT uses a much bigger database (数据库) for training. It also uses stronger software and hardware to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will make corrections. “It’s a totally different product,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University said. “The knowledge level ChatGPT shows is equal to an undergraduate (本科生) student. That is why it shocked the world.”
But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or even gives fake (虚假的) information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an essay, it “gave out nonexistent academic citations (不存在的学术引用),” he told The Guardian. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet’s biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with.
8．The cat story was written to _____.
A．introduce a cat that wants to go to space
B．introduce a series of bedtime books
C．show how robots create stories
D．show what creative work ChatGPT can do
9．According to the passage, which of the following can ChatGPT do
A．Make dishes. B．Sing songs. C．Translate texts. D．Create new languages.
10．What makes ChatGPT an excellent chat robot
a. It can learn things by itself.
b. It has a big database for training.
c. It won’t give people wrong answers.
d. It is smarter than any undergraduate student.
A．ab B．ac C．bc D．bd
11．Why does ChatGPT make mistakes
A．Some of its young users cannot use it correctly.
B．Its creator doesn’t know all the answers.
C．It may pick up wrong information on the Internet.
D．It likes fake information more.

My father had always been an alert observer of human character. Within seconds of meeting someone, he could sum up their strengths and weaknesses. It was always a challenge to see if any of my boyfriends could pass Dad’s test. None did. Dad was always right—they didn’t pass my test either. After Dad died, I wondered how I’d figure it out on my own.
That’s when Jack arrived on the scene. He was different from any other guy I’d dated. He could sit for hours on the piano bench with my mother, discussing some composers. My brother Rick loudly announced that Jack wasn’t a turkey like the other guys I’d brought home. Jack passed my family’s test. But what about Dad’s
Then came my mother’s birthday. The day he was supposed to drive, I got a call. “Don’t worry,” he said, “but I’ve been in an accident. I’m fine, but I need you to pick me up.”
When I got there, we rushed to a flower shop for something for Mom. “How about gardenias(栀子花) ” Jack said, pointing at a beautiful white corsage (胸花). The florist(花商) put the corsage in a box.
The entire ride, Jack was unusually quiet. “Are you all right ” I asked. “I’ve been doing a lot of thinking,” he said. “I might be moving.” Moving Then he added, “Moving in with you.” I nearly put the car on the sidewalk. “What ” I asked. “I think we should get married,” he said. He told me he’d planned his proposal in a fancy restaurant, but after the accident, he decided to do it right away. “Yes,” I whispered. We both sat dumbfounded, tears running down our cheeks. I’d never known such a tender moment. If only Dad were here to give his final approval.
“Oh, let’s just go inside.” Jack laughed. My mother opened the door. “Happy Birthday!” we shouted. Jack handed the box to her. She opened it up. Suddenly, her eyes were filled with tears. “Mom, what’s wrong ” I asked. “I’m sorry,” she said, wiping her eyes. “This is only the second gardenia corsage I’ve ever received. I was given one years ago, long before you kids were born.” “From who ” I asked. “Your father,” Mom said. “He gave me one right before we were engaged.” My eyes locked on Jack’s as I blinked away(眨掉) tears. Dad’s test I knew Jack had passed.
