The impact of technology on language is a topic that often causes concern, with many assuming that it is simply ruining it.However, language experts resist such pessimism, noting that there is little evidence to support the view that speech is getting worse.Gretchen McCulloch, in her book Because Internet: Understanding the New Rules of Language, focuses on what can be learned about language from the Internet rather than talking about its supposed negative effects.
McCulloch compares studying language online to growing bacteria(细菌) in a Petri dish, where trends emerge and disappear quickly, allowing language experts to observe changes that would otherwise take a considerable amount of time.The influence of strong ties like friends or family vs.weak ties on language change is analyzed, with computer simulations(模拟) revealing that having both strong and weak ties helps spread updates in a community.
The role of social media platforms in language change is also discussed. Twitter, with its mix of strong and weak ties, is shown to drive more language change than Facebook, which is controlled by strong ties. Emoji is highlighted as a universal digital expression of gestures, not a language. Additionally, there is evidence that the use of Internet“innovations” such as“omg” dates back to pre-computer eras.
McCulloch's book focuses on the birth of a new medium rather than a new language. The rise of mass writing on the Internet, characterized by frequent, error-filled, and short-lived communication, challenges traditional ideas about writing's importance. McCulloch suggests future historians should see this as a return to more casual(随意的) language, and pay more attention to the value of tools that improve social interaction online. The book argues against the idea that these changes might lead to the end of“real” writing, advocating for an appreciation of anything that enhances human connections and the enjoyment of each other's company.
1.How might McCulloch sound in her book?
A.Sensitive. B.Scientific.
C.Pessimistic. D.Dismissive.
2.What does Paragraph 3 focus on?
A.The development of digital language.
B.The difference between social media platforms.
C.The influence of the Internet on language change.
D.The connection between humans and the Internet.
3.Which of the following would McCulloch probably agree with?
A.Interpersonal bonds play a role in online communication.
B.Formal language is unlikely to improve social interaction.
C.The birth of new media has removed writing's importance.
D.Mass writing can make web-based conversations effective.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.How to Achieve Network Effect
B.Technology, Fear or Convenience
C.What If Faced With Media Terms
D.Internet Degrades or Helps Speech

Glasgow University researchers have created a laser(激光) camera using AI and quantum technologies to remotely detect a person's heartbeat, potentially changing health monitoring.Professor Faccio imagines various applications, such as setting up this technology in shopping malls or fixing laser heart monitors in homes.These monitors could be part of an extensive system tracking different health aspects, such as blood pressure and slight changes in movement, indicating early signs of conditions like Alzheimer's.
Monitoring a person's heartbeat from a distance holds significant value, as it can detect irregularities like abnormal heart rates, providing crucial warnings of potential heart issues.In contrast to the traditional use of stethoscopes(听诊器), this system overcomes limitations associated with proper stethoscope usage, such as the need for training and the potential reduction of heartbeat signals.
The system developed by Faccio and his team involves high-speed cameras which can record images at speeds of 2,000 frames per second.A laser beam is shone onto the skin of a person's throat and the reflections are used to measure exactly how much their skin is rising and falling as their main artery (动脉) expands and contracts as blood is forced through it.These changes involve movements of only a few billionths of a meter.
Such acuity is striking, though on its own the tracking of these tiny changes would not be enough to track a heartbeat.Other, much larger movements occur on a person's chest—from their breathing, for example—which would flood signals from their heartbeat.
“That is where AI comes in,” Faccio said.“We use advanced computing systems to separate out everything except the vibrations caused by a person's heartbeat.We know the frequency range of the human heartbeat, and AI focuses on that.The prime use of this technology—which we hope to have ready next year—will be to measure heartbeats easily and quickly outside hospitals.The benefits could be considerable.”
5.What can the laser camera be used for?
A.Improving the usage of the stethoscope.
B.Measuring blood pressure remotely.
C.Recording images of the human throat.
D.Detecting a person's heartbeat from a distance.
6.What does Paragraph 3 focus on as for this system?
A.How it works.
B.Where it is used.
C.Whom it benefits.
D.What it is composed of.
7.Which is closest in meaning to “acuity” in Paragraph 4?
A.Consistency. B.Complexity.
C.Sensitivity. D.Intensity.
8.What role does AI play in this system?
A.To measure skin movements.
B.To recognize heartbeat vibrations.
C.To record images at high speeds.
D.To shine a laser beam on the skin.

In our weekly staff meeting, our editor Ashley was not pleased with the quality of our reporting.“Our readership is way down.We need better stories for this Thursday's school newspaper.Does anybody have any ideas?” she said.
I handed her my article about our basketball team beating Deerfield High School the previous night by one point.“Sports stories are fun,” she said, “but not good enough for the front page.We need something to really get people's attention.”
After our meeting, we left the newsroom together and heard someone screaming, “Perry is missing!” Perry was a big red parrot and had been our school mascot(吉祥物) for ten years.He played an important role in students' lives, both in and out of class.He had also been a constant presence at school events, inspiring a sense of unity among students.
Everyone gathered around Perry's empty cage, heartbroken.Suddenly, a student from the crowd came over and showed me a photo.“You're a reporter for the school paper, right I happened to take this yesterday,” he said.In the photo was a Deerfield High School basketball player with something large hidden under his shirt around the size of a parrot.
“He must have stolen Perry to get back at us for winning the game!” Ashley cried.We hurried back to the newsroom, agreeing to run the photo on the front page with the headline “Deerfield Stole Perry”.“This is just the story we need.Everyone will read it,” Ashley said confidently.
After she left, I took a closer look at the photo.The clock in the background read 4:15 p.m., but our game against Deerfield hadn't started until 4:30 p.m.Why would the boy have taken Perry before we even played An uneasy feeling came over me that we might have falsely accused someone.
I went to Perry's usual caretaker to ask if he knew Perry was missing.“He's not missing.He's retired.He's ready for some quieter days,” he said.Learning the truth, I immediately told Ashley and suggested writing a story to say goodbye to Perry.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。
To my surprise, Ashley insisted on reporting the “Deerfield Stole Perry” story.
On Thursday, the paper came out with the headline “Bye-Bye, Perry” on the front page.

After our meeting, we left the newsroom together and heard someone screaming, “Perry is missing!” Perry was a big red parrot and had been our school mascot(吉祥物) for ten years.He played an important role in students' lives, both in and out of class.He had also been a constant presence at school events, inspiring a sense of unity among students.
Everyone gathered around Perry's empty cage, heartbroken.Suddenly, a student from the crowd came over and showed me a photo.“You're a reporter for the school paper, right I happened to take this yesterday,” he said.In the photo was a Deerfield High School basketball player with something large hidden under his shirt around the size of a parrot.
“He must have stolen Perry to get back at us for winning the game!” Ashley cried.We hurried back to the newsroom, agreeing to run the photo on the front page with the headline “Deerfield Stole Perry”.“This is just the story we need.Everyone will read it,” Ashley said confidently.
After she left, I took a closer look at the photo.The clock in the background read 4:15 p.m., but our game against Deerfield hadn't started until 4:30 p.m.Why would the boy have taken Perry before we even played An uneasy feeling came over me that we might have falsely accused someone.
I went to Perry's usual caretaker to ask if he knew Perry was missing.“He's not missing.He's retired.He's ready for some quieter days,” he said.Learning the truth, I immediately told Ashley and suggested writing a story to say goodbye to Perry.

参考范文:
To my surprise, Ashley insisted on reporting the “Deerfield Stole Perry” story.“This is the very story we need to attract more readers,” she argued.To convince her, I defended that if we wrote this article, we would be telling a lie.Noticing her hesitant expression, I further explained the potential harm it would cause to the player and our paper's reputation.After some discussion, Ashley finally gave in,“OK, let's try with real stories.” Then I went to gather all the necessary information to write an article about Perry and the precious memories we shared over the years.
On Thursday, the paper came out with the headline “Bye-Bye, Perry” on the front page.Soon, it sparked heated discussions among students about Perry.Many were disappointed with Perry's sudden departure, but were comforted by the fact that he was in good care.Some students even requested that they share their stories of him in our paper! Seeing the story's success, Ashley came to me and said sincerely, “You are right! It's a good story.” Her words brought me a great sense of fulfillment.Indeed, true stories might not always draw attention, but they have the power to touch and connect people.
