(2024·泰安宁阳模拟)
Scientists have developed a way to read minds,translating unspoken thoughts into written words.It's the first time it's been done without having to put anything into the brain.They used artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能).It is the name given to a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence.
Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器).The machine can see where blood runs,which shows the parts of the brain that are most active.People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned.The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard.After that,each person was asked to think of a story,and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened.
The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率),although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns,such as he or she,her or him.For example,it turned “I don't have my driver's license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet.” It could usually understand the meaning of what someone was thinking rather than the exact words.The AI was personalized,so when it had learned from one person but it was tested on another,it couldn't understand their thoughts.
The scientists,who have been working on the technology for 15 years,say they understand the risks of it being used badly.Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper,“We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to,and that it helps them.”The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions,who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak,to communicate once again.
5.What is the main purpose of paragraph 2
[A] To describe the process of the experiment.
[B] To explain the results of the experiment.
[C] To offer some opinions about the experiment.
[D] To list the difficulties with the experiment.
6.What does the example in paragraph 3 show
[A] The AI is much cleverer than people.
[B] The AI didn't start the work as it was ordered.
[C] The AI couldn't understand the exact words of what people thought.
[D] The AI will be well developed according to people's special needs.
7.What can we learn from the text
[A] It is not difficult to take AI under control.
[B] AI will not be used in a proper way in the future.
[C] AI is so wise that it can treat people with medical problems.
[D] It's expected that AI will help those speechless exchange ideas.
8.What can be the best title for the text
[A] High Risks of Using AI
[B] Mind-Reading Development
[C] Importance of Human Brain
[D] Ways of Improving Technology

(2024·乐山中考)E-bikes usually have a big problem—it is much heavier than common bikes.Recently,a Romanian company has solved this problem. 9 In fact,an adult can even lift it easily.
The reason for the low weight is the choice of material (材料),which is quite unusual.It uses a frame (车架) made of bamboo. 10 What's more,the bamboo frame also makes riding more comfortable,because it has good vibration damping (减震).
11 Your smartphone is connected to the e-bike.So you can check your riding information in real time through a special app on your smartphone.
The company manager said,“Creating the bikes was a hard journey. 12 To be honest,I really don't remember how many times we had to face the failures (失败).”
The manager continued,“But in the end,we succeeded.We have created a bike that is light-weight enough,strong enough and smart enough. 13 And now we have successfully developed these bikes to meet the needs of more people in cities.”
A.This e-bike is also very “smart”.
B.So I'm very proud that we never gave up.
C.The weight of this new e-bike is just 15kg.
D.This material makes it light and friendly to environment.
E.It included many years of research,development and failures.

五、【参考范文】
Are home robots a good idea
As society develops,more and more families use home robots in their daily lives.Is it a good idea I've made a survey in our class recently.
56% of the students like the idea.First,home robots help with housework,so people have more time to do things they enjoy.Second,home robots can act as guards.This gives people a sense of security.Third,they can also make people feel less lonely.Fourth,they can help us do the dangerous work.However,31% of the students disagree.Most robots have cameras to collect information.That puts the owners'private information at the risk of being exposed.Besides,depending on the robots too much may make people lazier.
As for the rest of the students,they are not sure if it's a good idea to have a home robot.
In my opinion,home robots can make our lives easier.I will surely get one in the future.
That's all.Thanks for listening.
