热考英语时文一人工智能人工智能投入眼科检测：比人更快更精确A Chines hospital on Thursday launched free consultations featuring artificial-intelligence (AI) cameras to detect eye diseases, which are major causes of blindness.Deqing county hospital in Guangdong Province became the first to use the device, co-developed by China’s search engine Baidu and Sun Yat-sen University, to serve the general public, Baidu told Xinhua.The instrument is capable of diagnosing three types of eye disorders — diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and macular degeneration. It scans the eyes and generates a report in 10 seconds, all done without the need for an doctor to be present.With an accuracy rate of 94 percent, it had previously been piloted in hospitals in nine Chinese provinces, according to Baidu.Though it may be interpreted as AI making the doctors lose their jobs, Baidu said the new tool aimed to help cut the waiting line at the eye doctor’s short, especially in China’s rural regions.Eye diseases are a major cause of blindness in the developing world, where the short supply of eye doctors and instruments make it difficult to check and treat in time. China, with a population of 1.39 billion, has only thousands of eye doctors capable of analyzing eye screening photos.Xu Yanwu, a Baidu engineer developing the instrument, said the AI cameras were specifically designed to address the lack of medical instruments and eye doctors at grassroots health facilities.1. How many kinds of eye disorders can the instrument diagnose?A 1.B 2.C 3.D 4.2. What’s the disadvantage of the instrument?A It can make the eye doctors lose jobs.B It can cut the treatment cost down.C It can reduce the eye disorder rate.D It can rise the eye treatment rate.3. What is the aim of the instrument?A To make the eye disease check more accurate.B To make eye disease treatment easier.C To make eye doctors’ work easier.D To make seeing an eye doctor easier.4. Which of the following is TRUE?A The AI instrument can bring brightness for blind people.B The AI instrument is easy to use and have high accuracy.C The AI instrument is invented by two universities.D The eye doctors feel uneasy about the AI instrument.5. What is the main idea of this passage?A The short of eye doctors is making eye disease treatment hard.B The AI instrument is being put into use to diagnose eye diseases.C New diagnosing ways are being used for eye diseases.D .Eye doctors are in danger of losing their jobs because of the AI instrument.二垃圾分类杭州兴起新垃圾分类系统方法A new rubbish sorting system has been put into use in Zixinhuating Community in Hangzhou. Local people not only sort their rubbish, but also put QR codes(二维码) on it.In Hangzhou, every family is provided with three rubbish bins—the grey lid bin for “recycling” like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for “green waste”such as grass and leaves and the red lid bin for harmful waste, like batteries. On the streets, the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside. It makes recycling quite easy.“When the QR codes are seen, the bin will open by itself and I just throw the rubbish in it. Then I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money,” one of the local people told reporters. “It’s really creative and encouraging.”This smart system has also been carried out in 350 communities in Beijing. The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting. For example, Shenzhen and Shanghai have made laws to punish people and organizations for not sorting rubbish correctly.China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.What’s more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits. For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of their benefits, some countries have developed successful sorting systems.1. In Hangzhou, which bin should you put leftovers in?A The grey lid bin.B The red lid bin.C The green lid bin.D All of the above.2. What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Zixinhuating Community?A A computer.B A car.C A bin.D Some small gifts.3. Which of the following is NOT the consequence of burying rubbish?A Polluting soil.B Polluting water.C Taking up a lot of land.D Saving resources.4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A The history of a new rubbish sorting system.B An introduction of a new rubbish sorting system.C Economic benefits of a new rubbish sorting system.D Rubbish bins in China.5. In which part of a newspaper can you probably read the passage？A Health.B Culture.C Education.D Technology.三5G中国华为联合英国沃达丰拨出世界上第一个5G电话Chinese mobile giant Huawei and British telecom provider Vodafone claimed to have made the first 5G data phone call in the world this week, the latest development in the race to faster mobile data connections.The call, made on Tuesday between a computer in Barcelona and a mobile phone in Madrid, used a dual “4G to 5G connection” which can reach speeds up to eight times faster than the current 4G standard. Vodafone added that following Tuesday’s first voice call, it successfully completed a video call using 5G data connection on Huawei’s Radio Access Network (RAN) equipment.Vodafone officials told Spanish newspaper that previous tests did not meet up-to-date standards, but rather used experimental settings that wouldn’t be compatible(兼容的) with most current 4G technologies.Yang Chaobin told Newsweek that his firm would be starting commercial testing with Vodafone in the near future.As the world’s second largest smartphone maker, Huawei has already announced plans to invest 5 billion yuan (786 million US dollars) in developing 5G this year. The company’s first 5G computer chips and mobile phones are set for release in 2019.5G stands for “fifth generation” and refers to the newest standard for mobile wireless networks. Telecoms companies expect 5G to be used widely in 2020, bringing faster Internet speeds capable of supporting “the Internet of things” including web-connected household appliances, lights and driverless cars, as well as virtual reality and augmented reality technologies.1.

Carriers including China Mobile,China Telecom and China Unicom,are expected to build over 4.9 million 5G macro base stations by 2025.5G is a “game-changing”opportunity for carriers as they can explore new business like smart manufacturing,super high definition video and smart driving,instead of just being a “pipeline”for voice and data services.China will issue “temporary”5G licenses in several targeted cities this year.Consumers will be able to use the first batch of 5G smart-phones and tablet computers in the second half. It’s the first time that China’s top industry regulator clarified the 5G industry time line,especially the debut of 5G phones.But 5G services will become accessible to normal consumers later than expected.More work needs to be done to make the 5G industry mature,which won’t happen until 2020,said UBS recently. Enterprises and organizations,rather than consumers,will enjoy 5G services initially. The first batch of 5G services will be available to consumers in about 10 cities only.1.Why is 5G a “game-changing”opportunity for carriers?A Because they can explore new business like smart manufacturing,super high definition video and smart driving.B Because they are just being a “pipcline”for voice and data services.C Because they can make more money from it.D Because they are expected to build more macro base stations.2.When will people be able to use the first batch of 5G products?A In the second half of the year.B One year later.C Two years later.D We don’t know.3.How many cities will enjoy 5G services initially?A 5.B 8.C 9.D 10.4.What’s the main idea of the passage?A Mobile carriers plan to spend big on 5G.B 4G is unpopular in the world.C Mobile carriers will make more money.D People prefer to 5G rather than 4G.五中医中药中药受国外友人青睐What comes to a foreigner’s mind when speaking of China? Not martial arts(武术) or Peking opera, but traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Chinese Foreign Languages Publishing administration did a survey in 2015, asking 9500 foreigners in G20 countries about China’s national image. Half of them chose TCM.TCM has a 3,000-year history in China. It is based on the Chinese philosophy(哲学) of yin and yang. It looks at humans and nature as a unity(统一). So to keep healthy, we should follow the laws of nature. For example, it is time to sleep at 11:00 pm, because yin power starts to recover by then. If you often stay up late, your body will lose balance and catch illness.TCM and the Chinese philosophy about humans and nature have gone global in recent years. People in 183 countries and regions are now using TCM therapies(疗法), according to China’s first white paper on TCM. You may have noticed the round, purple marks on the shoulders of US swimmer Michael Phelps at the Rio Olympics this summer. He was using the TCM cupping(拔火罐) therapy. It made headlines across the world. One of the reasons behind the growing popularity of TCM is the increase of scientific research into it. Last year, Chinese scientist Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize for discovering an anti-malaria drug(抗疟药). She used a plant long used in traditional medicine.1.Foreigners chose TCM in G20 countries in 2015.A 20.B 2015.C 4750.D 9500.2.People should go to sleep at according TCM.A 10：00 am.B 11:00 am.C 10:00 pm.D 11:00 pm.3.What does the underlined word “recover” mean in chinese?A 消失.B 恢复.C 增加.D 减弱.4.What made headlines across the world at the 2016 Rio Olympics?A Tu Youyou was using western medicine.B Michael Phelps was swimming.C Michael Phelps was using TCM cupping.D Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize for discovering an anti-malaria drug.六抗疫82岁退休护士自制纸箱防护服，提醒人们待在家里Feridia Rojas, 82, from Havana, Cuba, decided to build and wear a cardboard box herself to protect her from the virus, which is very dangerous to the elderly in the country as personal protective equipment is not widely available. "I am at home. What about you?" reads a message on her box, in a witty nod to Cuba's coronavirus(冠状病毒) slogan "Stay at home".The old woman, whose daughters both live in the United States, said with no one to help her with daily necessities, she had to find a way to do so safely by herself. "I was worried about the cases who could cough just as I passed," she said. "So I thought I would do a little house with a cardboard box and wear it."Rojas used to work as a nurse. She got the box from somewhere in her Palatino neighbourhood and cut arm holes and a window for her face which she covered in clear plastic. On the top, she glued cake boxes to make it look more like a house with a roof than a flat-topped apartment building. "She's very creative," her neighbour Zayda Echemendia said with a smile, adding that Rojas still helped local people with injections for free at home.While her mobile home may be less necessary as Cuba's outbreak appears to have come under control, it still brought people a lot of joy. "With stress and anxiety during this time, my little home makes people laugh," she said.1.

高中英语作文严禁酒后驾车 No drunk drivingThis year, the most stringent traffic rules are carried out, in order to reduce traffic accidents and improve citizens’ safety and property. One of them is strictly prohibited to drunk driving. I think it’s reasonable to this issue, no matter how strict the traffic rule is. Drinking reduce people’s sensibility that people can’t react immediately when the unexpected situation occurs, due to the anesthetic effects of alcohol. Besides, people will be tire easily after drinking, which is desperately dangerous to driving. In addition, people are usually excited after drinking. With stimulation of alcohol, people sometimes overestimate their own and try to do something dangerous despite of the advice of the people around them. In my opinion, it is necessary to ban on drinking while driving, for the sake of safety. 今年，为了减少交通事故，保证人民的人身和财产安全，我国开始执行史上最为严厉的新交规。

01（2023·广西南宁·统考三模）Science and technology will continue to develop fast in 2023. Nature and Forbes have made their predictions （预测）. Let’s have a look.Human-like friendsRobots will be more like humans both in their looks andabilities in 2023. These Robots will serve as greeters, waiters andcompanions （陪伴）of the elderly. Elon Musk’s company is workinghard on making human-like robots that will work in our home.More AI systems will play roles in areas like health care andscientific research.Protecting the earthOne of the most difficult challenges the world face today is lowering carbon emissions （降低碳排放）. In 2023, we can expectmore progress in green hydrogen, a new clean energy with near-zero greenhouse gas emissions. Scientists will also have a saferway to deal with nuclear waste. The used nuclear fuel （燃料）willbe buried （埋）400 meters underground.Space and beyondThe images from the world’s largest and most powerful spacetelescope （太空望远镜）— the James Webb Space Telescope —have amazed the world. And the Euclid Space Telescope will belaunched in 2023. It will take photos to create a3 D map of theuniverse. China will continue to build the Xinjiang Qitai RadioTelescope. It will be able to watch 75%of the stars in the sky atany given time.Staying connectedIn 2023, people will communicate more smoothly. In China,the Beidou Navigation Satellite System （北斗卫星导航系统）cannow be directly connected to mobile phones. We can find wherethe phones are even when there’s no signals （信号）. A UScompany is also working on a direct connection between phonesand satellites. The impact of 5 G will continue to grow. The areas5 G will benefit most in 2023 include education through onlinelearning, remote surgery（远程手术）and live streaming（直播）. 1．Human-like robots will do many things for people EXCEPT ________.A．serving as greeters, waiter and companionsB．playing roles in health care and scientific researchC．learning to use some space telescopes2．Which is NOT mentioned to protect the earth?A．By making progress in a new clean energy.B．By using more human-like robots.C．By dealing with nuclear waste in a safer way.3．Which space telescope can be used to create a 3 D map of universe?A．The James Webb Space Telescope.B．The Euclid Space Telescope.C．The Xinjiang Qitai Radio Telescope.4．Which of the following is TRUE?A．It’s difficult for Chinese people to find where their phones are.B．China is working on a direct connection between phones and satellites.C．5 G will continue to influence people’s lives in some areas.5．Where can you read this passage?A．In a magazine. B．In a novel. C．In a guidebook.02（2022秋·广东广州·九年级广州市第六十五中学校考阶段练习）What’s going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10 to 30 years from now, according to the BBC．Digital moneyWe need to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card to shop online, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.When ATM cards were first introduced, t hey were not accepted everywhere. But now it’s hard to live without them. It’s reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.Bionic（仿生的）eyeIt’s no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back-by wearing bionic eyes.A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes.A high resolution（高清的）image could be just a few years away.Self-driving carsUnlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t get distracted（分神）by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors（探测器）and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless carswould be widely accepted.6．What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?A．We use digital money to shop online without paying money.B．Digital money is most likely to be used instead of cash.C．Using cash is easier and safer than a credit card.D．ATM cards are always popular.7．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction film.B．Human drivers won’t get distracted by something outside.C．The blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future.D．There will be no road accident at all if self-driving cars are used.8．From the report, we can learn some information about ______.A．culture and art B．industry and farmingC．science and technology D．traffic and shopping9．Which of the following can be predicted（预测）from the passage?A．There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road.B．The blind could use cameras to see things around.C．We would live a hard life with digital money.D．Robots would control the world.03（2023·湖南长沙·长沙市南雅中学校考二模）China has completed its BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (北斗卫星导航系统), or BDS. It becomes a new system in the world with a global navigationnetwork (全球导航网络). The other three systems are GPS of the US, GLONASS of Russia and Galileo of the European Union.As the name suggests, the global navigation satellite system provides navigation and location services 24 hours a day. As we know, building a good satellite system costs a lot. Besides, the other systems have been set up. Why does China have a new one if there is nothing special?The other three systems have 24 satellites. China’s BDS has six more satellites. What’s special about these six satellites is that they have a relatively fixed area of activity. This can improve BDS’ accuracy (精准度) in China and the Asia-Pacific region to 5 meters, compared with a 10-meter accuracy in other areas.BDS has another advantage-the short message service. It allows users to have a two-way communication. In areas that are not covered by communication signals (信号), users can send short messages. Even in uninhabited areas, such as deserts, forests, mountainous and polar areas, BDS can also make the short message service available. With this service, users who are in danger can tell the rescue team (救援队) their location and condition.As the most populous country, it’s important for China to have its own global navigation satellite system to meet the needs of the country’s development. In fact, BDS is also good business. According to the official report, China’s satellite indus try has kept a 20% yearly growth since 2012. And BDS contributes about 80% of it. In addition, BDS has also created countless high-paying jobs. And with continuous improvement, it will have much more to offer in the future.10．Which one is the global navigation satellite system of China?A．BDS. B．GPS of the US. C．GLONASS of Russia.11．How many satellites does BeiDou-3 have in total?A．6. B．24. C．30.12．What does the underlined word “uninhabited” mean in Paragraph 4?A．人口众多的B．无人居住的C．风平浪静的13．What are true about China’s BDS according to Paragraph 5?a. It has met the needs of China’s development.b. It is regarded as good business.c. It has caused a number of people to lose their jobs.A．a, c B．a, b C．b, c14．In which part of a newspaper can we probably read this passage?A．Technology. B．Culture. C．History.04（2022秋·广东梅州·九年级校考阶段练习）The local government of Haidian and the Internet company Baidu had an agreement in January, 2018. They wanted to develop the “smart city” together. Haidian Park was chosen by them. Why was Haidian Park chosen? It is because the park covers about 34 hectares (公顷) near the 4th Ring Road. And it received about 1.2 million tourists last year. It took the workers 10 months to change Haidian Park into an artificial intelligence AI (人工智能) theme park. It was opened to the public in early November.Now the park has driverless buses, smart lamp posts (灯柱) and smart speakers. The buses themselves can run according to the directions from a computer. The smart lamp posts can record a lot of data quickly and well. The smart speakers can understand human instructions correctly. The park gives people a totally new look. People can experience different artificial intelligence here.Che Jianguo said that a total of 10 government departments and companies took part in therebuilding of the park over the past 10 months. He comes from the park office and he is in charge of the program.In recent years, Chinese high-tech companies begin to do some things in the artificial intelligence industry. The central government also said in October that it would help the development of the country's new generation of artificial intelligence.15．Haidian Park was chosen to become the “smart city” because _____.A．it is the biggest park in Beijing B．it is next to the 4th Ring Road C．it has large size and is popular16．The underlined word “driverless” in Paragraph 2 means “_____” in Chinese.A．无人驾驶的B．无座位的C．跑得快的17．Today, Chinese high-tech companies pay more attention to _____.A．the global economy B．the artificial intelligence industry C．the development of our country 18．The best title of the text is “_____”.A．Haidian Artificial Intelligence Theme ParkB．Chinese High-tech CompaniesC．Building A “Smart City”05（2023·山东日照·日照市新营中学校考三模）China’s biggest sol ar-powered drone(太阳能无人机), Qimingxing-50 or Morning Star 50, finished its first test flight in September, 2022. The drone was built by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China(AVIC, 中国航空工业集团有限公司)Drones have been used for quite a few years now. There are different ways of increasing the flying time. However, all these methods become less useful compared with the unlimited(无限的) powerprovided by the Sun. That’s why researchers have been working to make solar-powered drones that can not only stay in the air for longer but also perform more tasks while in the sky.In 2018, China tested the first version(版本) of Morning Star, which was 91 feet wide. Made from a special kind of plastic, the drone was so light, weighing only 41 pounds. Compared with it, the Morning Star 50 is much larger and has a wingspan(翼展) of 164 feet.On September 3, Morning Star 50 took off from an airport in Yulin City in the Shaanxi province in northwest China and landed back 26 minutes later after a smooth flight. Staff told some local reporters that all flight systems worked normally. This is a good start for future flights of the solar-powered drone that could last for many days or even months at a time.In the US, Airbus has been testing the Zephyr solar-powered drones for the past few years. Its latest version, the Zephyr S, came close to breaking the record for the longest flight. It stayed in the air for 64 days. Unluckily, the drone fell onto the ground only a few hours before it would have set a new record.19．Which one is an advantage of solar-powered drones researchers want?A．They’re cheap er than others. B．They can fly in bad weather.C．They fly at a higher speed. D．They can stay in the air for longer.20．What made the first version of Morning Star light?A．Its look. B．Its material. C．The power it uses. D．The tasks it performs. 21．What can we know about Zephyr S?A．It failed to land smoothly. B．It flew for only a few hours.C．It set a new record in the US. D．It had been tested for many years.22．What’s the main purpose of the text?A．T o compare different drones.

The International Space Station(ISS) became our first “home” in space in 2000. It welcomed its first crew that year, paving the way for 20 years of future research.“You just have this impression that we’re all citizens of not a particular country, but of the planet,” former NASA astronaut Scott Kelly told National Geographic about workin g in ISS. “We’re all in this thing called humanity together.”Over the past 20 years, the ISS has mainly been used as a science lab, hosting 241 people from 19 countries, according to NASA．They have gone on spacewalks, done research on how space affects the human body, and even grown plants in space.The station’s development has also benefited people on Earth. For example, the station’s water purification(净化) technology has been used in poor areas to provide clean drinking water. The station also helps to warn us of natural disasters, such as earthquakes.However, after being our home in space for over 7000 days, the station is starting to get old. It has leaked(泄露) air a few times. Scientists think that the station can keep working until 2024. After that, scientists will bring it down to Earth. It is believed that Earth’s atmosphere will burn up most of the station. Other debris(残骸) will fall into the Pacific Ocean.In the future, space will be home to more stations like the ISS. NASA is building a space station that is smaller than the ISS near the moon. Also, China will have its own space station up and running in 2022.23．What did Scott Kelly feel about his work in space?A．Comfortable. B．Proud. C．Bored.

Alcohol impairs a person's ability to make quick decisions, react swiftly to unexpected situations, and stay focused on the taskat hand. This can lead to devastating consequences such as accidents, injuries, and even fatalities. In addition to the physical dangers, driving drunk can also result in legal consequences, including fines, license suspension, and even jail time. Therefore, it is crucial for individuals to recognize the importance of never getting behind the wheel after drinking. Instead, they should always have a designated driver, use public transportation, or arrange for a ride-sharing service to ensure their safety and the safety of everyone else on the road.中文翻译: 在酒精影响下驾驶是极其危险的，对驾驶者和其他路上的人都构成了严重风险。

Those who choose to ignore these laws are not only putting themselves at risk but also endangering the lives of others on the road.

禁止酒后驾车英文作文英文回答：Driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI), also known as drunk driving, is a serious issue that poses a significant threat to road safety. It is illegal to operate a motor vehicle while intoxicated, and for good reason. Alcohol impairs a driver's ability to make sound judgments and react quickly to changing road conditions, increasing the risk of accidents and fatalities.Impaired Judgment and Reaction Time.Alcohol affects various brain functions, including those responsible for judgment and reaction time. When intoxicated, drivers may underestimate the risks associated with their actions, leading to poor decision-making and reckless behavior. Alcohol also slows down reaction time, making it harder for drivers to respond to sudden changes in traffic conditions.Increased Risk of Accidents.Numerous studies have established a clear link between alcohol consumption and motor vehicle accidents. The risk of a fatal crash is significantly higher for drivers who have consumed even small amounts of alcohol. In the United States, approximately one-third of all traffic fatalities involve a drunk driver.Legal Consequences.Driving under the influence is a serious offense with severe legal consequences. In most jurisdictions, DUI convictions carry significant fines, driver's license suspension or revocation, and even jail time. Additionally, drivers may face civil liability for damages caused by an accident involving drunk driving.Social Costs.Drunk driving not only has direct consequences for theindividual offender but also imposes significant social costs. Alcohol-related crashes result in substantial economic losses due to property damage, medical expenses, and lost productivity. Moreover, the loss of life and injuries associated with drunk driving have a profound emotional impact on families and communities.Prevention and Education.To address the problem of drunk driving, a multifaceted approach is necessary. This includes:Public awareness campaigns: Educating the public about the risks and consequences of drunk driving.Enforcement: Strict enforcement of DUI laws and penalties.Alternative transportation options: Providing safe and reliable transportation options for people who have consumed alcohol.Ignition interlock devices: Requiring repeat DUI offenders to install devices that prevent them from starting their vehicles if they have been drinking.Rehabilitation programs: Offering treatment and support for individuals with alcohol use disorders.Conclusion.Driving under the influence of alcohol is a dangerous and irresponsible act that puts lives at risk. By understanding the risks, complying with laws, and supporting prevention efforts, we can create safer roads and reduce the devastating toll of drunk driving.中文回答：酒后驾驶的危害。

This isn't a strict command, but a fundamental principle that underscores the importance of personal responsibility in our daily lives.Imagine a lively evening, where friends gather to unwind and celebrate. The laughter echoes, glasses clink, and the air is filled with the heady scent of alcohol. Amidst the revelry, a man, perhaps caught up in the moment, raises his glass, his eyes a little glassy. The question arises, "Can he still drive?" The answer, in this context, is a resounding no.The first reason, quite simply, is the law. Every jurisdiction has strict酒驾法规, which states that a person under the influence of alcohol cannot operate a vehicle. It's not just about the legal consequences; it's about saving lives. The road is a shared space, and everydriver has a duty to ensure the safety of others.Secondly, alcohol impairs judgment. It dulls reaction times and clouds decision-making, making it impossible to react to unexpected situations with the same level of alertness. A driver under the influence is like a driverwith a blindfold, navigating a complex world with limited vision.Then, there's the moral aspect. Would you want your loved ones to be in a car with a person who, despite being drunk, thinks they can handle the road? The answer, we hope, would be a resounding no. It's a simple act of self-preservation, a choice to prioritize safety over the thrill of the moment.Lastly, the social norm plays a role. In many societies, drinking and driving is considered a taboo. It's a breachof trust, not just with the law, but also with the community. By abstaining from driving, one shows respectfor the rules and the trust placed in them.In conclusion, the choice to abstain from driving after consuming alcohol is not just a practical measure, but a moral one. It's a simple reminder that, in the world of driving, being sober is the key to being a responsible road user. So, let's raise a toast to the responsible choice, and the promise of safer roads. Cheers to that!。

紧急叫停机器人作文英语In recent years, there has been a surge in the use of technology in education, particularly in the realm of language learning. While the integration of AI and machine learning has undoubtedly brought about convenience and efficiency, it has also raised concerns about theauthenticity and creativity of student work, especially in English composition. The time has come to critically assess and, in some cases, urgently halt the robotic approach to teaching and evaluating English essays.Firstly, the reliance on automated grading systems can lead to a loss of nuance in understanding the complexities of language. English composition is not merely about grammar and vocabulary; it's also about conveying emotion, creating a narrative, and engaging the reader. Automated systems often lack the sophistication to evaluate these subtleties, which can result in a misjudgment of a student's true writing ability.Secondly, the use of AI-generated content can undermine the integrity of academic work. There have been instances where students have used AI to write their essays, leading to a lack of original thought and personal investment in the writing process. This not only devalues the educational process but also erodes the skills of critical thinking and self-expression that are essential for personal and professional growth.Moreover, the robotic approach to English composition can stifle creativity. When students are taught to rely on templates and formulaic structures to produce their essays, they may be discouraged from experimenting with different styles and formats. This can lead to a homogenization of writing styles, where individual voices are suppressed in favor of a more standardized, and often less engaging, form of expression.To halt the robotic approach, educators should:1. Emphasize the importance of human interaction and feedback in the writing process. Personalized guidance from teachers can help students understand their strengths and weaknesses, and provide them with the support they need to improve.2. Encourage originality and creativity by assigning avariety of writing tasks that allow students to explore different topics and writing styles.3. Implement policies that discourage the use of AI-generated content for academic work, and educate students about the ethical implications of such actions.4. Use technology as a tool for enhancing the learning experience rather than replacing the human element. For example, AI can be used to provide immediate feedback on grammar and spelling, allowing teachers to focus on the more complex aspects of writing.In conclusion, while technology can be a valuable asset in the field of education, it is crucial to maintain a balance that preserves the human aspects of learning. The robotic approach to English composition should be carefully reconsidered to ensure that students are not only learning the mechanics of language but also developing the skills to express themselves in a meaningful and engaging way.。

禁止骑车英语作文Certainly! Here's a sample English composition on the topic "Ban on Cycling":In recent years, the debate over whether cycling should be banned has intensified. Proponents of the ban argue that itis essential for public safety and the efficiency of urban transportation systems. This essay will explore the reasons behind the ban, its potential benefits, and the counterarguments that suggest it may not be the best solution.The Need for SafetyOne of the primary reasons for advocating a ban on cycling is the concern for safety. Cyclists are often involved in accidents with motor vehicles, resulting in serious injuriesor fatalities. By restricting cycling, especially in busy urban areas, the risk of such accidents can be significantly reduced.Reducing Traffic CongestionAnother argument in favor of the ban is that it can help alleviate traffic congestion. Cyclists can slow down the flow of traffic, as drivers may need to change lanes or slow downto accommodate them. A ban could streamline traffic flow and reduce delays.Environmental ImpactWhile cycling is often touted as an environmentally friendly mode of transportation, the ban's proponents argue that it can lead to increased use of public transportation, which is even more sustainable. This shift could result in a reduction in carbon emissions and a cleaner urban environment.Counterarguments: The Value of CyclingDespite the arguments for a ban, there are many who believe that cycling is an integral part of a city's transportation system. Cyclists argue that it provides a healthy and inexpensive means of commuting, reducing the reliance on cars and contributing to a healthier population.Cultural and Lifestyle ConsiderationsFurthermore, cycling is deeply ingrained in the culture and lifestyle of many communities. It is a form of exercise, a leisure activity, and a means of transportation that should be preserved and encouraged, not banned.Alternative SolutionsInstead of an outright ban, some suggest implementingstricter regulations and infrastructure improvements to make cycling safer. This could include dedicated bike lanes,better traffic education, and more stringent enforcement of traffic laws.ConclusionThe debate over whether to ban cycling is complex and multifaceted. While the ban may offer some benefits in termsof safety and traffic management, it is essential to consider the broader implications on health, culture, and the environment. A balanced approach that includes education, infrastructure, and regulation may be a more effective way to address the concerns without completely eliminating the benefits that cycling brings to urban life.This composition provides a balanced view of the topic, presenting both sides of the argument and suggesting alternative solutions to an outright ban.。

火车的变化英文作文The train has evolved over the centuries from a simple steam-powered locomotive to a modern, high-speed marvel of engineering. Remember those old days when the chugging ofthe locomotive's wheels announced its arrival at the station?

禁止酒后驾驶的重要性的英语作文Don't Drink and Drive - It's Not Worth the Risk!Hi there! My name is Jimmy and I'm a 5th grader. Today I want to talk to you about something really important - why you should never, ever drive after drinking alcohol. I know I'm just a kid, but this is a super serious issue that affects everyone, including kids like me.Lots of adults think it's no big deal to have a couple drinks and then drive home. But the truth is, even a little bit of alcohol can make you an unsafe driver. Alcohol makes your brain get fuzzy and slows down your reflexes. When you're driving, you need to be able to think clearly and react quickly if something unexpected happens on the road. With alcohol in your system, that becomes much harder.Drunk driving causes so many terrible car accidents every single year. People get seriously injured or even killed because someone made the awful choice to drive after drinking. It's just not worth the risk of hurting yourself or someone else, just because you didn't want to get a ride from a sober friend or take a taxi.I've seen the effects of drunk driving up close in my own family. A few years ago, my uncle got into a car accident because he had been drinking at a party earlier that night. He drove through a red light and crashed into another car. Thankfully, no one was killed, but my uncle broke his leg and had to spend weeks in the hospital. The other driver also got banged up pretty bad. My uncle felt so guilty about putting someone else's life in danger because of his poor decision.After that, our whole family had many serious talks about never driving after drinking, no matter what. My parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles all agreed it's just not okay, ever. They started being very careful about having a designated sober driver anytime alcohol would be involved. I'm really glad they take it so seriously now.Some people think they can still drive safely if they've only had a few drinks, but that's just not true. Alcohol affects everyone differently based on their weight, how much food they've eaten that day, and other factors. The only way to be sure you can drive safely is to not have any alcohol at all before getting behind the wheel.I know it can be tempting to drive yourself home after having some drinks, instead of having to get a ride fromsomeone else or spend money on a taxi or ride-share. But your life, and the lives of others on the road, are way more important than a little inconvenience. It's always better to spend a few extra bucks on getting home safely than to risk causing a terrible,life-altering accident.Driving is an awesome privilege that comes with a huge responsibility to do it safely. When you choose to drive drunk, you're being incredibly irresponsible and putting your own life at risk, as well as the lives of any passengers in your car and people in other vehicles or walking near the road. No matter howÂűcautious" you think you're being, you're still impaired and unable to react as quickly as a sober driver in an emergency.I really hope that when I'm old enough to drive someday, drunk driving won't be as huge of a problem as it is now. But that's only going to happen if we all take it seriously and pledge to never drive after drinking, no exceptions.So please, think about the consequences and don't ever drive after you've been drinking alcohol. Call a cab, get a sober friend or family member to pick you up, use a ride-share service, or just stay where you are until you're sober again. A little inconvenience is so much better than getting into a terrible,life-changing accident. Your life, and the lives of others, are precious. Don't risk them by driving drunk. It's just not worth it!。

关于禁止开车时手持电子设备的观点作文The debate surrounding the prohibition of handheld electronic device usage while driving has gained significant attention in recent years. The rationale behind this ban is clear: to enhance road safety and reduce the risk of accidents caused by distracted driving. Handheld devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and other electronic gadgets, have become increasingly prevalent in our daily lives, often leading to temptation to use them even while operating a vehicle.近年来，关于禁止开车时手持电子设备使用的讨论备受关注。

这一禁令的背后有着明确的理由：增强道路安全，降低因分心驾驶导致的事故风险。

手持设备，如智能手机、平板电脑和其他电子小玩意儿，在我们的日常生活中越来越普遍，这常常导致人们在驾车时也想使用这些设备。

When a driver is engaged with a handheld device, their attention is diverted from the road, decreasing their reaction time and awareness of potential hazards. This distraction can have dire consequences, ranging from minor scrapes to fatal collisions. The statistics are sobering: a significant portion of traffic accidents can be attributed to distracted driving, often involving the use of handheld electronic devices.当驾驶员专注于手持设备时，他们的注意力会从道路上转移，反应时间缩短，对潜在危险的感知能力也会降低。

英语知识酒后驾车是造成严重交通事故的罪魁祸首之一，一方面司机不能掉以轻心，另一方面交管部门的交通标志也要清晰醒目，尤其是提供中英文双语标志时，英文翻译一定要准确。

从大家反馈的中式英语来看，“严禁酒后驾车”的错误翻译是交通标志中非常普遍的现象。

有“江苏第一路”之称的沪宁高速公路作为沟通长江三角洲地区交通的黄金通道，大大地加速了该地区的人流、物流和信息流通，促进了沿线城市和乡镇的经济社会发展。

自1996年建成通车以来，沪宁高速的运营时间已经有整整十年，然而，沪宁高速沿线的双语指示牌的英文译文仍存在严重问题，上面的各类指示性和警示性标志提供的英语译文存在着用词不当、语法错误和不符合英语表达习惯等等问题。

一些警示性公示语的译文错得离谱，基本上属于文不对题，译文与原文意思大相径庭，从而令人迷惑不解，无法实现成功的交际。

更为令人不解的是，同样的警示性文字出现在沪宁高速公路的不同地段，其英语译文竟然说法不一。

这样的标识非但没能完成其信息指示功能，反而有可能给外国友人的出行造成困扰，降低该高速路配套软件的国际性水准，同时也有损周边地区乃至我国的国际形象。

自南京驱车开往上海方向，才上沪宁高速公路不久，交管部门为了提醒驾驶员切勿酒后驾车，在道路一侧矗立起标有“严禁酒后驾车”及其英语译文的警示牌，这对意图酒后驾车的国内司机起到了一定的威慑作用，但是也给不懂中文的国外司机带来了疑惑，因为其英文译文“Don’tdrivewhiledrinking”让人匪夷所思。

从语法上来看，此译文似乎无可指责，但仔细品味，“whiledrinking”这一现在分词的使用表示“drive”和“drink”这两个动作是不分先后，同时进行的，所以该英语译文的意思应该是：“不要一边开车一边喝酒”，这与原文警示牌的意思可是大相径庭啊。

难道在这段高速上查禁的只是驾驶中饮酒这一举动？如此这般的翻译除了从语言文字上制造了交通规则漏洞以外，只能沦为贻笑大方之谈资。
