The peony has gained extraordinary support in an online vote to
be chosen as China’s national flower. The final result of the poll, initiated by the China Flower Association, will be unveiled on Friday.
The five days of voting began on Monday, and an official from the association revealed that the peony has collected more than 90
percent of the votes to date among 10 options.
“We are stepping into the new era and t he country is witnessing social prosperity,” the official said. “People also have better living conditions. It is time to have an official national flower
that can represent our state image and the nation’s spirit.”
According to the association, China’s na tional flower should
meet four standards: It should originate in China and have a long history in many regions; it should be beautiful in shape and color,
to represent the Chinese culture and personality; it should have a profound historical culture and be widely known to the public; and it should be extensively used in many fields with a competitive
ecological and economic value that could benefit the public.
“The peony was the national flower in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). Apart from ornamental (观赏的) value, it also has been used as a food and a traditional Chinese herb, for which it has strong economic value,” Dong said. “It is widely known by Chinese people. Even my
10-year-old son and his classmates in primary school have voted for it.”
By Wednesday afternoon, nearly 600,000 people had joined in the discussion on WeChat, with about 470,000 agreeing that the national flower should be only one certain flower.
Among several colors being considered, the red peony has gained the greatest support from the public with nearly 30,000 votes on Sina Weibo, followed by white and yellow.
Many netizens said they didn’t realize that China has no
national flower. In fact, many people said they had already accepted the peony as the national flower years before they saw the vote.

4 out of 10 parents and carers are thinking of leaving their careers in classical music due to challenging working practices, according to a new study by Parents and Carers in Performing Arts (PiPA) and Birkbeck, University of London.
The new report, titled A Bittersweet Symphony, surveyed 410 participants from the music industry and conducted focus groups and
in-depth interviews.
Its findings highlight the struggle that those in the classical music sector face when having balance work and supporting children, elderly or sick family members.
The study said that self-employed women - over 85% of whom have parenting and caring responsibilities - reported a pay penalty of ￡8,000.
Women with caring responsibilities were also found to be twice as likely to turn down work due to highly gendered work and caregiving structures in classical music.
“There is greater impact on women, who are likely to wo rk and earn less, and those without social capital,” the report says.
Also highlighted, are the logistics （后勤）and financial demands arising from touring and working away from home, the lack of
affordable, flexible, ad-hoc childcare for working musicians, and the lack of support mechanisms （机制）within the classical industry.
The report calls on industry leaders to create a classical music sector that works for everyone. It highlights flexible working, more advanced scheduling, and sharing best practice within the industry as key next steps.
PiPA will be bringing together a working group comprising of
Black Lives in Music, Help Musicians, Independent Society of
Musicians, Liverpool Philharmonic, Musicians’ Union, Phonographic Performance Limited, Royal Opera House and Scottish Opera to develop a best practice charter （章程）to address the challenges raised by ‘Bittersweet Symphony’.
“Only by re -evaluating established working practices, can we begin to deal with wellbeing impacts, inclusion and diversity, and potential loss of talent,” the report says.
“We need to jointly adopt sustainable, considered and flexible practices, HR policies and processes, to address the problem.”
8. Which aspect of classical music industry does the research focus on?
A ．Potential loss of its workforce.
B ．Suggestions on its development.
C ．Its gendered work structures.
D ．Its logistics and financial problems.
9. What do we infer from the report title “A Bittersweet Symphony”?
A ．Performing a symphony of classical music is a bitter job.
B ．Classical industry is suffering hardships despite its sweetness.
C．The survey was compared to a classical symphony.
D．Life is a symphony mixed with bitterness and sweetness.
10. What makes it harder for women to stick with classical music careers?
A．Their inborn gender disadvantages.
B．High challenges on their performance.
C．The lack of support mechanisms in the industry.
D．The lack of flexibility in their career scheduling.
11. What is the key factor in solving the problem?
A．A working group and a charter.
B．A gender-balanced structure of the industry.
C．Sticking to the established working practice.
D．Reforming the current working mechanism.
We ourselves, as products of an educational system, are sufficiently perfect evidence against it. If we think of what we happily might have been, and then of what we are, we cannot but admit the total failure or the helpless insufficiency of our education.
Looking back on those years upon years which we spent in school, we know that something was wrong. If we will remember, we did not, at the time, exactly approve of the school system. Many of us, in fact, went in for sabotages. Our favorite brand of sabotage was the “withdrawal of efficiency” — in our case a kind of unconscious passive resistance. Good-natured onlookers, such as our parents or the board of education, might have thought that we were leaning something all the while; but that’s just where we fooled them! There were, of course, a few of us who really learned and remembered everything — who could state off-hand, right now, if anybody asked us, in what year Norman the Conqueror landed in England. But the trouble is that so few people ask us!
There was one bit of honesty in our schooling — at its very end. They called that ending a Commencement. And so indeed we found it. Confused, unprepared, out of touch with the realities, we commenced then and there to learn what life is like. We found it discouraging
in a thousand ways; but the thing which struck us at the time most forcibly was that it was in every respect quite unlike school. One could not cram for a job as if it were an examination; one could not get in the good graces of a machine as if it were a teacher; the docility which won high “marks” in school was called lack of
originality in the business world, dullness in social life, stupidity in the realm of love. We had been quite carefully prepared to go on studying and attending classes and taking examinations; but the real world was not like that. So, what difference does schooling make, to us or to the world? And what to us now are those victories and humiliations, the failure or success of school?
12. What is the purpose of this article?
A．To complain about the educational system.
B．To encourage readers to get educated in school.
C．To discuss about how to get good education in school.
D．To talk about the relationship between school and society.
13. What does the underlined word “sabotage” in 2nd paragraph most probably mean?
A．an unconscious act of destruction B．the low ability to be efficient
C．a deliberate strategy of disrespect D．the active resistance to success
14. What does the author mean by the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph?
A．Not many understand knowledge learned from education.
B．Too much dead knowledge is given to students in school.
C．Few people are interested in educational questions.
D．The more questions you ask the more trouble you face.
15. What is the main idea of the 3rd paragraph?
A．Commencements shouldn’t be carried out in schools.
B．School values are not consistent with outside realities.
C．We have attended too many classes and examinations.
D．WE should be educated on different aspects at school.
二、七选五
Falling asleep or coming down from anxiety might never be as easy as 1-2-3, but some experts believe a different set of numbers—4-7-8—comes much closer to doing the trick.
“What a lot of sleep difficulties are all about is people who struggle to fall asleep because their mind is buzzing,” said Rebecca Robbins, an instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School.
“16 And that’s exactly what we need to do
before we go to bed.”
The 4-7-8 method doesn’t require any equipment or specific setting, but when you’re initially learning the exercise, you should sit with your back straight, according to Weil. Practicing in a calm, quiet place could help, said Robbins. 17
During the entire practice, place the tip of your tongue against the ridge of tissue behind your upper front teeth, as you’ll be exhaling (呼气) through your mouth around your tongue. Then follow these steps, according to Weil:
● Completely exhale through your mouth, making a whoosh sound.
● 18
● Hold your breath for a count of seven.
● Exhale through your mouth, making a whoosh sound for a count
of eight.
● Repeat the process three more times for a total of four breath cycles.
● Keeping to the ratio of four, then seven and then eight counts is more important than the time you spend on each phase, according to Weil.
● “19 With practice you can slow it all down and get used to inhaling and exhaling more and more deeply,” his website advised.
When you’re stressed out, your sympathetic nervous system (交感
神经系统)— responsible for your fight-or-flight response — is overly active. This makes you feel overstimulated and not ready to relax and transition into sleep, Rebecca said. “An active sympathetic nervous system can cause a fast heart rate as well as rapid and shallow breathing.”
The 4-7-8 breathing practice can help activate your parasympathetic nervous system — responsible for resting and digesting — which reduces sympathetic
activity. 20 Activating the parasympathetic system
also gives an anxious brain something to focus on besides “why am I not sleeping?” Weil said.
A．Breathe out some air for a count of four.
B．It can put the body in a state easier for restful sleep, he added. C．Once you get the hang of it, you can use the technique while lying in bed.
D．But if you’re a beginner, you could feel a little lightheaded a t first, Rebecca said.
E．Close your mouth and quietly inhale through your nose to a mental count of four.
F．But exercises like the 4-7-8 technique give you the opportunity to practice being at peace.
G．If you have trouble holding your breath, speed the exercise up but keep the ratio (consistent) for the three phases.

Hanson, is one of many professional artists whose work was
included in the data set used to train Stable Diffusion, a
popular 36 publicly available open-source AI image generation tool. She’s one of several artists
interviewed 37 were unhappy to learn that pictures of their work were used without someone 38 (inform) them, asking for consent, or paying for their use.
Once available only to a select group of tech insiders, text-to-image AI systems are becoming increasingly popular
and 39 (power). These systems include Stable Diffusion, from a company that recently raised more than $100 million in funding, and DALL-E, from a company that has raised $1
billion 40 now.
In just months, millions of people 41 (enter)
text-to-image AI systems and they are already being used to create experimental films, magazine covers and images to illustrate news stories. An image 42 (generate) with an AI system called Midjourney recently won an art competition at the Colorado State Fair, and caused 43 uproar (怨愤) among artists.
But as artists like Hanson have discovered that their work is
being used to train AI, it raises an even more fundamental concern: that their own art is 44 (effective) being used to train a computer program that could one day cut into their livelihoods. Anyone who generates images with systems such as Stable Diffusion or DALL-E can then sell them.
“I don’t want to participate at all in the machine that’s
going to 45 (cheap) what I d o,” said Daniel Danger, an illustrator and print maker who learned a number of his works were used to train Stable Diffusion.

整的短文。
Pinty Tailor was a little boy who enjoyed going to school and
doing all sorts of things, except for art and writing. Using brushes and pencils did not come easy to Pinty, so his works of art did not end happily, and he would just give up in disgust. But one day Pinty found a pencil of such lovely colours that he could not resist, and
he tried drawing a circle. As ever, it did not go well, and he was about to throw the pencil away when his drawing began to speak to him. “Psst! You aren’t going to leave me like this, are you? Come on,
the least you can do is draw me a pair of eyes!” said the drawing. Pinty was understandably shocked, but he managed to draw two little spots inside the circle. “Much better, now I can see myself,” said the circle, looking around at itself… “Arghh! But what have you
done to me?!” “I don’t draw very well,” said Pinty, trying to make excuses. “OK, no problem,” the drawing interrupted him, “I’m sure that if you try again you’ll do better. Go on, rub me out!” So Pinty erased the circle and drew another one. Like the first one, it was not very round. “Hey! You forgot the eyes again!” “Oh, yeah.” “Hmmm, I think I’m going to have to teach you how to draw until you can do me well,” said the circle with its quick, high-pitched little
voice. To Pinty, who remained almost paralysed with shock, this did not seem like a bad idea, and he immediately found himself drawing and erasing circles. The circle would not stop saying “rub this out, but carefully; it hur ts,” or “draw me some hair, quickly, I look like a lollipop (棒棒糖)!” and other funny remarks.
After spending nearly the whole afternoon together, Pinty could already draw the little figure much better than most of his classmates could have. He was enjoying it so much that he did not want to stop drawing with this crazy new teacher of his. Before going to bed that night, Pinty gave his new instructor a hearty “thank you” for having taught him how to draw so well.
Para 1 The next morning Pinty jumped out of bed and went running to find his pencil, but it was not there.
_____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________
Para 2 He realised that the crazy little teacher had been right.

江苏省苏州市2022-2023学年高三上学期期中调研 英语试题 一、阅读理解 Most of us have an unreasonable fear or habit. Famous folks often seem to go one step further. Diane von Furstenberg Fashion designer and icon Diane von Furstenberg (1946 - ) tapes a gold 20 -franc coin in her shoe for good luck before every runway show. Her father hid the coin in his shoe during World War II and gave it to her when she was a girl. Lucille Ball On the day that three-year-old Lucille Ball’s father died, a bird flew into her home and became trapped. Traumatized(受精神创伤)by the events, she developed a lifelong feeling of intense dislike of birds. The actor (1911 - 1989) even refused to stay in hotels that had pictures of birds on the walls. Charles Dickens Author Charles Dickens (1812 - 1870) carried a navigational compass with him at all times and always faced north when he slept. He believed it improved his creativity and writing. Gustav Mahler Composer Gustav Mahler (1860 - 1911) thought he could cheat death by not naming his ninth symphony by number. This was because several composers, including Beethoven and Schubert, had died after completing their ninth symphonies. So Mahler called his ninth The Song of the Earth—and it worked, in a sense. He lived long enough to write most of his tenth symphony, though he died before it was performed. 1. Who is a perfect match for “TREASURE FROM DAD”?
