B
"Are you all right "the student asked as she passed me in the hallway.I was in the final stretch of last work before writing my essay.The student,who was 4 years behind me in the same Ph.D.program,went on to say,"I see people from your group working so much,putting in extra hours,even at night."It set me thinking a lot.
As a first-year Ph.D.student,I was lucky to have kind and understanding advisers. But I felt overwhelming pressure to become a perfect student.I kept finding a million reasons why I was coming into graduate school at a disadvantage compared with my peers.As a student from Colombia,I had been educated at institutions my professors and colleagues had never heard of,I spoke with an accent that was hard to understand, and I was older than most of the people in my cohort.
I noticed that most of the people around me seemed to be working all the time.I began to spend many weekday nights and weekends in the lab.But my strategy didn't work.I crashed from burnout.The tiredness took a toll on my productivity and motivation.During one of many mindless Sundays in the office,I realized I'd fallen into the trap of assuming my colleagues' work habits were the standard for belonging and being worthy of respect—and it wasn't sustainable(可持续的).
From then on,I stopped counting the number of work hours I was putting in, leaving space every day for exercising and doing activities that I enjoyed.Eventually,I realized nobody was keeping track of the amount of time I spent in the lab anyway and it wasn't something I needed to worry about.
I noticed that having more time for myself made me more rested and motivated when I went back to work.I continued quietly along this path for years,until that conversation in the hallway.So,when I ran into her again,weeks later,I told her that even though I was feeling a lot of pressure in the final year of my Ph.D.,I was putting my mental and physical health first and wasn't working overtime.I also began to talk with other students about how quality sleep,physical activity,healthy eating,and reasonable work hours were a daily part of my routine.
24.What can we learn about the student
A.He spent much time in lab work. B.He had finished the Ph.D.program.
C.He was concerned about the author. D He was putting in extra hours at night.
25.How does the author feel about his work at first
A.Anxious. B.Ambitious. C.Dissatisfied. D.Enthusiastic.
26.Which can replace the underlined phrase "took a toll on"in Para.3
A.Added fuel to. B.Had a negative impact on.
C.Cast new light on. D.Depended too much on.
27.What does the author intend to tell us
A.A healthy work-life balance counts. B.A fall into the pit,a gain in your wit.
C.Fitting in doesn't mean working overtime. D Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.
C
Art &Technology
Think"art".What comes to your mind Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre,or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum Or maybe,just maybe,it's a dancing pattern of lights
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colorful floating clouds when they are lit up at night.Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it,they could also interact with it-literally.They did this by using their phones to change its colors and patterns.Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting,but are they really art
Whatever your opinion,people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years.To do this,they have used a variety of tools and technologies.Yet Michelangelo and others have been labeled as"artists"rather than "technicians".This means that art and technology have always been seen as two very separate things.
Today,however,technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology.As a result,the art world is changing greatly.Now art is more accessible to us than ever before.Take for example one of China's most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty,Along the River During the Qingning Festival.As this artwork is rarely on display,people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it.Once in front of the painting,they only have limited time to spend taking in its five meters of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing.Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting,Throe- dimensional (3D)animation means that viewers can see the characters move around. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nightmare.
The art-tech combination is also changing our concepts(概念)of "art"and the "artist".Not only can we interact with art,but also take part in its creation.With now technological tools at our fingertips,more and more people are exploring their creative sides.The result has been exciting new art forms,such as digital paintings and videos.
However,the increase in the amount and variety of art produced has also raised questions over its overall quality,Can a video of someone slicing a tomato played in slow motion really be called"art"
Similarly,such developments are making the line between art and technology less clear.Can someone unfamiliar with traditional artists' tools really call themselves an "artist" And is the artist the creator of the art itself.Or the maker of the technology behind it A recent project used technology and data in the same way that Rembrandt used his paints and brushes.The end result printed in 3D,was a new"“Rembrandt painting"created 347 years after the artist's death.These advances are perhaps bringing us closer to a time when computers rather than humans create art
Where technology will take art next is anyone's guess.But one thing is for sure— with so many artists exploring new possibilities,we can definitely expect the unexpected.
28.What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs
A.To criticize the new forms of art exhibits. B.To lead readers to review how art develops!
C.To draw readers' attention to what can be called "art". D To compare the differences between eastern and western art
29.The author mentions Along the River During the Qingming Festival to show that
A.the old way of displaying artworks is out of date
B.artworks can be recreated with the help of technology
C.art-tech combination changes the viewers into creators
D.technology makes viewers appreciate classics more easily
30.According to the passage,the author might agree that
A.it is hard to recognize the difference between art and technology
B.art and technology have been seen as a whole for a long time
C.technology has improved the quantity and quality of artworks
D.artworks have lost their value with the help of technology
D
Will chatbots that can generate fascinating articles destroy education as we know it
New York City's Department of Education recently banned(禁止)the use of ChatGPT."While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions," says the official statement,"it does not build critical-thinking skills,which are necessary for academic and lifelong success."
Banning such use of technology from the classroom is a nearsighted response. Instead,we must find a way forward in which such technologies combine well with, rather than replace,student thinking.
Banning ChatGPT is impossible in practice.Students will find ways around the ban,which will cause a further defensive response from teachers and administrators, and so on.It's hard to believe that a close race between those digital natives and their educators will end in a decisive victory for the latter.In fact,chatbots may well speed up a trend(趋向)toward valuing critical thinking.In a world where computers can fluently answer any question,students need to get much better at deciding what questions to ask and how to fact-check the answers the program generates.
So how do we encourage young people to use their minds when real thinking is so hard to tell apart from its simulacrum(假象) Teachers,of course,will still want to watch students taking old-fashioned,in-person,no-chatbot-allowed exams to check that they do not cheat
But we must also figure out how to do something new:how to use tools like GPT to inspire deeper thinking.GPT often generates text that is fluent and "reasonable"— but wrong.So using it requires thc same mental heavy lifting that writing does:forming an opinion,creating an outline,picking which points to explain and which to drop,and looking for supporting facts.GPT can help with those tasks,but it can't put them all together.Writing a good essay still requires lots of human thought and work.Indeed, writing is thinking,and good writing is good thinking.
One approach is to focus on the process as much as the result.For instance,teachers might require four drafts of an essay.After all,as John McPhee,a writer,said, "the central nature of the process is revision."Each draft gets feedback from the teacher, from peers or even from a chatbot.Then the students produce the next draft,and so on.
Will AI one day outperform human beings in thinking Maybe,but for now,we must think for ourselves.Like any tool,GPT is an enemy of thinking only if we fail to find ways to make it our partner.
31.How does the author feel about the ban .
A.Understandable. B.Irresponsible. C.Unwise. D.Necessary.
32.Why is it impossible to ban ChatGPT in practice
A.Because students are digitally fluent. B.Because schools will defend the ban.
C.Because ChatGPT will keep developing. D.Because people treasure critical thinking.
33.How does the author explain his idea in Paragraph 6
A.By quoting others. B.By presenting facts.
C.Bv giving examples. D.By showing similarities.
34.What is the passage mainly about
A.Is GPT a process or a result B.Will GPT outperform students
C.Why Chatbots become a new trend D.How can Chatbots serve education
第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项 中有两项为多余选项。
Understanding The Metaverse
The metaverse is rapidly being described as the next frontier(前沿)in the tech, business,and finance world The idea gained popularity in July 2021,after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg renamed the company to Metato reflect its growing focus on the metaverse.Today,everyone,from major corporations like Microsoft and Disney to creative startups,is struggling to enter the market that is predicted to.reach over $780 billion by 2024. 35 How will it affect the way we live and work
In simplest terms,the metaverse is a fully immersive(沉浸式)virtual world that is like our real life. 36 Instead,a functioning metaverse requires a combination of cutting-edge technologies like augmented reality(增强现实),virtual reality,3D avatars,and artificial intelligence.
Zuckerberg may have drawn the world's attention to the metaverse,but the idea of a virtual world is not new. 37 For instance,Fortnite:Battle Royal,where 100 players battle it out on a small island until only one survivor is left,is a typical example of a virtual universe.
38 They imagine using the virtual platform to attend meetings, conferences,concerts,and even tour the world with friends.
However,experts believe the technologies need to improve greatly before that happens.The still heavy virtual reality headsets often cause motion sickness and are not ready for long time use.The amount of computing power required to house billions of people worldwide in a virtual universe also presents an issue.
The various Metaverse companies will also have different virtual worlds.They will have to standardize(使标准化)the technology so users can move seamlessly(无缝) between them. 39
A.But what exactly is the metaverse
B.The development of the metaverse still has a long way to go.
C.However,a metaverse is not a specific type of technology.
D.The metaverse industry will create jobs for hundreds and thousands of people.
E.Most importantly,the virtual experience has to be very attractive and affordable for consumers.
F.Fans believe that the metaverse will enable people to conduct their daily lives in an online world.
G.The gaming industry has been building the fundamental elements of the metaverse for many years

Art &Technology
Think"art".What comes to your mind Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre,or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum Or maybe,just maybe,it's a dancing pattern of lights
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colorful floating clouds when they are lit up at night.Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it,they could also interact with it-literally.They did this by using their phones to change its colors and patterns.Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting,but are they really art
Whatever your opinion,people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years.To do this,they have used a variety of tools and technologies.Yet Michelangelo and others have been labeled as"artists"rather than "technicians".This means that art and technology have always been seen as two very separate things.
Today,however,technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology.As a result,the art world is changing greatly.Now art is more accessible to us than ever before.Take for example one of China's most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty,Along the River During the Qingning Festival.As this artwork is rarely on display,people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it.Once in front of the painting,they only have limited time to spend taking in its five meters of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing.Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting,Throe- dimensional (3D)animation means that viewers can see the characters move around. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nightmare.
The art-tech combination is also changing our concepts(概念)of "art"and the "artist".Not only can we interact with art,but also take part in its creation.With now technological tools at our fingertips,more and more people are exploring their creative sides.The result has been exciting new art forms,such as digital paintings and videos.
However,the increase in the amount and variety of art produced has also raised questions over its overall quality,Can a video of someone slicing a tomato played in slow motion really be called"art"
Similarly,such developments are making the line between art and technology less clear.Can someone unfamiliar with traditional artists' tools really call themselves an "artist" And is the artist the creator of the art itself.Or the maker of the technology behind it A recent project used technology and data in the same way that Rembrandt used his paints and brushes.The end result printed in 3D,was a new"“Rembrandt painting"created 347 years after the artist's death.These advances are perhaps bringing us closer to a time when computers rather than humans create art
Where technology will take art next is anyone's guess.But one thing is for sure— with so many artists exploring new possibilities,we can definitely expect the unexpected.

Will chatbots that can generate fascinating articles destroy education as we know it
New York City's Department of Education recently banned(禁止)the use of ChatGPT."While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions," says the official statement,"it does not build critical-thinking skills,which are necessary for academic and lifelong success."
Banning such use of technology from the classroom is a nearsighted response. Instead,we must find a way forward in which such technologies combine well with, rather than replace,student thinking.
Banning ChatGPT is impossible in practice.Students will find ways around the ban,which will cause a further defensive response from teachers and administrators, and so on.It's hard to believe that a close race between those digital natives and their educators will end in a decisive victory for the latter.In fact,chatbots may well speed up a trend(趋向)toward valuing critical thinking.In a world where computers can fluently answer any question,students need to get much better at deciding what questions to ask and how to fact-check the answers the program generates.
So how do we encourage young people to use their minds when real thinking is so hard to tell apart from its simulacrum(假象) Teachers,of course,will still want to watch students taking old-fashioned,in-person,no-chatbot-allowed exams to check that they do not cheat
But we must also figure out how to do something new:how to use tools like GPT to inspire deeper thinking.GPT often generates text that is fluent and "reasonable"— but wrong.So using it requires thc same mental heavy lifting that writing does:forming an opinion,creating an outline,picking which points to explain and which to drop,and looking for supporting facts.GPT can help with those tasks,but it can't put them all together.Writing a good essay still requires lots of human thought and work.Indeed, writing is thinking,and good writing is good thinking.
One approach is to focus on the process as much as the result.For instance,teachers might require four drafts of an essay.After all,as John McPhee,a writer,said, "the central nature of the process is revision."Each draft gets feedback from the teacher, from peers or even from a chatbot.Then the students produce the next draft,and so on.
Will AI one day outperform human beings in thinking Maybe,but for now,we must think for ourselves.Like any tool,GPT is an enemy of thinking only if we fail to find ways to make it our partner.
31.How does the author feel about the ban .
A.Understandable. B.Irresponsible. C.Unwise. D.Necessary.
32.Why is it impossible to ban ChatGPT in practice
A.Because students are digitally fluent. B.Because schools will defend the ban.
C.Because ChatGPT will keep developing. D.Because people treasure critical thinking.
33.How does the author explain his idea in Paragraph 6
A.By quoting others. B.By presenting facts.
C.Bv giving examples. D.By showing similarities.
34.What is the passage mainly about
A.Is GPT a process or a result B.Will GPT outperform students
C.Why Chatbots become a new trend D.How can Chatbots serve education

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项 中有两项为多余选项。
Understanding The Metaverse
The metaverse is rapidly being described as the next frontier(前沿)in the tech, business,and finance world The idea gained popularity in July 2021,after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg renamed the company to Metato reflect its growing focus on the metaverse.Today,everyone,from major corporations like Microsoft and Disney to creative startups,is struggling to enter the market that is predicted to.reach over $780 billion by 2024. 35 How will it affect the way we live and work
In simplest terms,the metaverse is a fully immersive(沉浸式)virtual world that is like our real life. 36 Instead,a functioning metaverse requires a combination of cutting-edge technologies like augmented reality(增强现实),virtual reality,3D avatars,and artificial intelligence.
Zuckerberg may have drawn the world's attention to the metaverse,but the idea of a virtual world is not new. 37 For instance,Fortnite:Battle Royal,where 100 players battle it out on a small island until only one survivor is left,is a typical example of a virtual universe.
38 They imagine using the virtual platform to attend meetings, conferences,concerts,and even tour the world with friends.
However,experts believe the technologies need to improve greatly before that happens.The still heavy virtual reality headsets often cause motion sickness and are not ready for long time use.The amount of computing power required to house billions of people worldwide in a virtual universe also presents an issue.
The various Metaverse companies will also have different virtual worlds.They will have to standardize(使标准化)the technology so users can move seamlessly(无缝) between them. 39
