Clarissa Barton, known as Clara, would later make the history of her own as the “Angel of the Battlefield” in the Civil War and as the founder of the American Red Cross disaster- relief agency. Clara Barton's long life was dedicated to (致力于) serving others.
She was born in Massachusetts on December 25, 1821, the youngest of Stephen and Sarah Barton’s five children. She became a teacher at age 17 and started two schools, but left teaching when a man was hired on twice her salary (工资) . In her 30s, she moved to Washington, D. C. , and joined the United States Patent Office as a recording clerk, the first woman in that role. But her boss didn’t agree with women working in the government, so she was demoted (降职) . These experiences led to Barton’s later support for civil (公民的) rights.
After the Civil War began in 1861, she repeatedly transported food and other supplies to where the need was greatest. She got the nickname “Angel of the Battlefield” after tirelessly tending Union (Northern) soldiers wounded at the Battle of Cedar Mountain in Culpeper County, Virginia, in August1862.
When the war ended, Barton launched an effort to find missing Union soldiers. Over four years, more than 22, 000 were identified. She also helped to educate people.
Extremely tired, Barton went to Europe to rest. In Switzerland, she learned of a new organization, the International Committee of the Red Cross. She returned to the United States and in 1881 formed the American Red Cross. She led the group for 23 years, providing help for people who suffered floods, earthquakes, fires, droughts, and tornadoes around the world.
Even at age 83, she wasn't done. Her final years were spent starting an association (协会) that promoted first- aid instruction and emergency preparedness. She died at her home in Glen Echo, Maryland, now a national historic site, in April 1912. Her last words were “Let me go. Let me go: ”
After 75 years dedicated to helping others, it was time.
4. What once led to Barton’s support for civil rights
A. She didn’t have the chance to study with boys. B. She was little cared about by her family.
C. She was not praised by her teacher ever. D. She didn’t get the same treatment as men.
5. What happened when Barton returned to Amorica
A. She chose to stay in her hometown for the rest of her life.
B. She formed an organization to help people in need.
C. She asked people to protect national historic sites.

Waves of innovation often create giants. Artificial intelligence (AI) may well be the next big technological shift, transforming the way of businesses. Firms selling the software and hardware that support AI will gain a lot of profit. But none is better positioned than Nvidia, an American firm that makes specialist AI chips. Its market value briefly passed $1,000 billion this week. Will Nvidia always be a tech-giant in this field
The hype (炒作) around AI makes the question hard to answer. Excitement about Nvidia began to mount in November, after the release of ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot. Since then many kinds of firms have launched AI products.
Nvidia is in an enviable (令人羡慕的) position. Its core business is designing high-performance chips. At first it sold these to video-game lovers. The chips were also highly efficient at training AI models, and a new, booming market emerged.
Nvidia also had the forethought to invest in two areas that helped strengthen its dominance (支配地位). One is advanced networking. Because training AI models requires vast amounts of processing power, many chips — sometimes thousands — are used at the same time. These chips exchange data along a high-performance, AI-tailored network.
Nvidia’s other strength is its software. CUDA, its AI platform, is popular with programmers and runs only on the company’s chips. For instance, by giving free access to its chips and software to some AI researchers, the firm focused on encouraging developers to use its software long before its competitors set out to woo them.
Despite all these advantages, however, Nvidia’s lasting dominance is not assured. New companies and big chipmakers want a share of Nvidia’s network and chip businesses. The biggest challenge, though, may come from Nvidia’s own customers. The cloud-computing arms of both Amazon and Alphabet are designing their own AI-tailored chips. Both have the potential to become fearsome competitors.
7. Which of the following makes Nvidia enviable according to the passage
A. The hype around artificial intelligence. B. The release of ChatGPT.
C. The availability of its chips. D. The high performance of its chips.
8. What does the underlined word “woo” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Hunt for. B. Attend to. C. Approve of. D. Guard against.
9. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Nvidia will lose its dominance definitely. B. Nvidia should further improve its chips.
C. Alphabet has weakened Nvidia’s market. D. Amazon will defeat Nvidia soon.
10. What does the author think of Nvidia’s dominance in the future
A. Unchallengeable. B. Uncertain. C. Predictable. D. Assured.
第二节 语句排序（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
11. 将下列几个部分 (A、B、C、D和E) 按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. The argument against laptops extends beyond their impact on individual learning. Laptops in classrooms can distract not only the users but also their fellow mon distractions include social media browsing (浏览) , gaming, or reading news during classes. Such as activities on bright screens can divert (转移) attention from the teaching, influencing others’ educational experience.
B. Support for the laptop rule is strong among educators who put students learning first. Research by Psychologist Pam Mueller suggests that note- taking by hand is more effective than on pared to typing on a keyboard, writing by hand increase students' memory an helps them get better understanding of what they learned.
C. As the new school year begins, college students are adjusting to the expectations of their classes, including the controversial (有争议的) laptop rule. This rule limits or stop the use of laptops for note- taking, causing heated debate among students.
D. Overall, during class time, students should focus on their teacher and the lesson. If they want to learn something from a class or lecture, it's time to take notes with pen and paper.

For instance, by giving free access to its chips and software to some AI researchers, the firm focused on encouraging developers to use its software long before its competitors set out to woo them.
Despite all these advantages, however, Nvidia’s lasting dominance is not assured. New companies and big chipmakers want a share of Nvidia’s network and chip businesses. The biggest challenge, though, may come from Nvidia’s own customers. The cloud-computing arms of both Amazon and Alphabet are designing their own AI-tailored chips. Both have the potential to become fearsome competitors.

Clarissa Barton, known as Clara, would later make the history of her own as the “Angel of the Battlefield” in the Civil War and as the founder of the American Red Cross disaster- relief agency. Clara Barton's long life was dedicated to (致力于) serving others.
She was born in Massachusetts on December 25, 1821, the youngest of Stephen and Sarah Barton’s five children. She became a teacher at age 17 and started two schools, but left teaching when a man was hired on twice her salary (工资) . In her 30s, she moved to Washington, D. C. , and joined the United States Patent Office as a recording clerk, the first woman in that role. But her boss didn’t agree with women working in the government, so she was demoted (降职) . These experiences led to Barton’s later support for civil (公民的) rights.
After the Civil War began in 1861, she repeatedly transported food and other supplies to where the need was greatest. She got the nickname “Angel of the Battlefield” after tirelessly tending Union (Northern) soldiers wounded at the Battle of Cedar Mountain in Culpeper County, Virginia, in August1862.
When the war ended, Barton launched an effort to find missing Union soldiers. Over four years, more than 22, 000 were identified. She also helped to educate people.
Extremely tired, Barton went to Europe to rest. In Switzerland, she learned of a new organization, the International Committee of the Red Cross. She returned to the United States and in 1881 formed the American Red Cross. She led the group for 23 years, providing help for people who suffered floods, earthquakes, fires, droughts, and tornadoes around the world.
Even at age 83, she wasn't done. Her final years were spent starting an association (协会) that promoted first- aid instruction and emergency preparedness. She died at her home in Glen Echo, Maryland, now a national historic site, in April 1912. Her last words were “Let me go. Let me go: ”
After 75 years dedicated to helping others, it was time.
4. What once led to Barton’s support for civil rights
A. She didn’t have the chance to study with boys. B. She was little cared about by her family.
C. She was not praised by her teacher ever. D. She didn’t get the same treatment as men.
5. What happened when Barton returned to Amorica

B. She formed an organization to help people in need.
C. She asked people to protect national historic sites.
D. She started to learn about a new organization.

Waves of innovation often create giants. Artificial intelligence (AI) may well be the next big technological shift, transforming the way of businesses. Firms selling the software and hardware that support AI will gain a lot of profit. But none is better positioned than Nvidia, an American firm that makes specialist AI chips. Its market value briefly passed $1,000 billion this week. Will Nvidia always be a tech-giant in this field
The hype (炒作) around AI makes the question hard to answer. Excitement about Nvidia began to mount in November, after the release of ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot. Since then many kinds of firms have launched AI products.
Nvidia is in an enviable (令人羡慕的) position. Its core business is designing high-performance chips. At first it sold these to video-game lovers. The chips were also highly efficient at training AI models, and a new, booming market emerged.
Nvidia also had the forethought to invest in two areas that helped strengthen its dominance (支配地位). One is advanced networking. Because training AI models requires vast amounts of processing power, many chips — sometimes thousands — are used at the same time. These chips exchange data along a high-performance, AI-tailored network.
Nvidia’s other strength is its software. CUDA, its AI platform, is popular with programmers and runs only on the company’s chips. For instance, by giving free access to its chips and software to some AI researchers, the firm focused on encouraging developers to use its software long before its competitors set out to woo them.
Despite all these advantages, however, Nvidia’s lasting dominance is not assured. New companies and big chipmakers want a share of Nvidia’s network and chip businesses. The biggest challenge, though, may come from Nvidia’s own customers. The cloud-computing arms of both Amazon and Alphabet are designing their own AI-tailored chips. Both have the potential to become fearsome competitors.
7. Which of the following makes Nvidia enviable according to the passage
A. The hype around artificial intelligence. B. The release of ChatGPT.
C. The availability of its chips. D. The high performance of its chips.
8. What does the underlined word “woo” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Hunt for. B. Attend to. C. Approve of. D. Guard against.
9. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Nvidia will lose its dominance definitely. B. Nvidia should further improve its chips.
C. Alphabet has weakened Nvidia’s market. D. Amazon will defeat Nvidia soon.
10. What does the author think of Nvidia’s dominance in the future
A. Unchallengeable. B. Uncertain. C. Predictable. D. Assured.

Clarissa Barton, known as Clara, would later make the history of her own as the “Angel of the Battlefield” in the Civil War and as the founder of the American Red Cross disaster- relief agency. Clara Barton's long life was dedicated to (致力于) serving others.
She was born in Massachusetts on December 25, 1821, the youngest of Stephen and Sarah Barton’s five children. She became a teacher at age 17 and started two schools, but left teaching when a man was hired on twice her salary (工资) . In her 30s, she moved to Washington, D. C. , and joined the United States Patent Office as a recording clerk, the first woman in that role. But her boss didn’t agree with women working in the government, so she was demoted (降职) . These experiences led to Barton’s later support for civil (公民的) rights.
After the Civil War began in 1861, she repeatedly transported food and other supplies to where the need was greatest. She got the nickname “Angel of the Battlefield” after tirelessly tending Union (Northern) soldiers wounded at the Battle of Cedar Mountain in Culpeper County, Virginia, in August1862.
When the war ended, Barton launched an effort to find missing Union soldiers. Over four years, more than 22, 000 were identified. She also helped to educate people.
Extremely tired, Barton went to Europe to rest. In Switzerland, she learned of a new organization, the International Committee of the Red Cross. She returned to the United States and in 1881 formed the American Red Cross. She led the group for 23 years, providing help for people who suffered floods, earthquakes, fires, droughts, and tornadoes around the world.
Even at age 83, she wasn't done. Her final years were spent starting an association (协会) that promoted first- aid instruction and emergency preparedness. She died at her home in Glen Echo, Maryland, now a national historic site, in April 1912. Her last words were “Let me go. Let me go: ”
After 75 years dedicated to helping others, it was time.
4. What once led to Barton’s support for civil rights
A. She didn’t have the chance to study with boys. B. She was little cared about by her family.
C. She was not praised by her teacher ever. D. She didn’t get the same treatment as men.
5. What happened when Barton returned to Amorica
A. She chose to stay in her hometown for the rest of her life.
B. She formed an organization to help people in need.
C. She asked people to protect national historic sites.
D. She started to learn about a new organization.
6. This text is developed ________.

Waves of innovation often create giants. Artificial intelligence (AI) may well be the next big technological shift, transforming the way of businesses. Firms selling the software and hardware that support AI will gain a lot of profit. But none is better positioned than Nvidia, an American firm that makes specialist AI chips. Its market value briefly passed $1,000 billion this week. Will Nvidia always be a tech-giant in this field
The hype (炒作) around AI makes the question hard to answer. Excitement about Nvidia began to mount in November, after the release of ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot. Since then many kinds of firms have launched AI products.
Nvidia is in an enviable (令人羡慕的) position. Its core business is designing high-performance chips. At first it sold these to video-game lovers. The chips were also highly efficient at training AI models, and a new, booming market emerged.
Nvidia also had the forethought to invest in two areas that helped strengthen its dominance (支配地位). One is advanced networking. Because training AI models requires vast amounts of processing power, many chips — sometimes thousands — are used at the same time. These chips exchange data along a high-performance, AI-tailored network.
Nvidia’s other strength is its software. CUDA, its AI platform, is popular with programmers and runs only on the company’s chips. For instance, by giving free access to its chips and software to some AI researchers, the firm focused on encouraging developers to use its software long before its competitors set out to woo them.
Despite all these advantages, however, Nvidia’s lasting dominance is not assured. New companies and big chipmakers want a share of Nvidia’s network and chip businesses. The biggest challenge, though, may come from Nvidia’s own customers. The cloud-computing arms of both Amazon and Alphabet are designing their own AI-tailored chips. Both have the potential to become fearsome competitors.
7. Which of the following makes Nvidia enviable according to the passage
A. The hype around artificial intelligence. B. The release of ChatGPT.
C. The availability of its chips. D. The high performance of its chips.
8 What does the underlined word “woo” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Hunt for. B. Attend to. C. Approve of. D. Guard against.
9. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Nvidia will lose its dominance definitely. B. Nvidia should further improve its chips.
C. Alphabet has weakened Nvidia’s market. D. Amazon will defeat Nvidia soon.
10. What does the author think of Nvidia’s dominance in the future
A. Unchallengeable. B. Uncertain. C. Predictable. D. Assured.
【答案】7. D 8. A 9. B 10. B
第二节 语句排序（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
11. 将下列几个部分 (A、B、C、D和E) 按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. The argument against laptops extends beyond their impact on individual learning. Laptops in classrooms can distract not only the users but also their fellow mon distractions include social media browsing (浏览) , gaming, or reading news during classes. Such as activities on bright screens can divert (转移) attention from the teaching, influencing others’ educational experience.
B. Support for the laptop rule is strong among educators who put students learning first. Research by Psychologist Pam Mueller suggests that note- taking by hand is more effective than on pared to typing on a keyboard, writing by hand increase students' memory an helps them get better understanding of what they learned.
C. As the new school year begins, college students are adjusting to the expectations of their classes, including the controversial (有争议的) laptop rule. This rule limits or stop the use of laptops for note- taking, causing heated debate among students.
D. Overall, during class time, students should focus on their teacher and the lesson. If they want to learn something from a class or lecture, it's time to take notes with pen and paper.
E. However, there are some situations where laptops are allowed. Students with learning or physical disabilities may require laptops for note- taking. For these students, typing might be easier and better, so it's important to be flexible about how the rule is applied.
